IoD cancels its annual ball

TWO of the largest events in the Jersey business calendar have been under review, in the light of the economic downturn.


New swine flu warning

JERSEY’S Health Minister has issued the bleakest warning yet on the threat of swine flu – as the number of cases in the Island soared to 38.


World Cup carrot for juniors

THE top two teams in this week’s six-team ICC European Under-19 cricket Division I championship will qualify for the global qualifier for the 2010 U19 World Cup.


Sixty years – sealed with a kiss

IT was more than 60 years ago that Joe Meade tried his luck with a pretty Territorial Army cadet at a dance in East London.


Fulfilling a legal obligation

From Clive Jones, chairman, Jersey Heritage. YOUR correspondent Alan Le Rossignol (JEP, 8 July) complains that our decision to replace the old DUKWs on the Elizabeth Castle route was flawed and that the replacements are ‘inappropriate’.


Counting the bean counters

IT was Edward de Bono who observed that we live in a critical society where, from a very early age, we all learn that it is far easier to criticise than it is to be constructive. He must know Jersey well.


Durrell’s day to remember

THE number of people who turned up on Sunday to help celebrate Durrell Day proved beyond any doubt just how popular the organisation formerly known as Jersey Zoo is among Islanders and visitors.


St Lawrence Chef de Police resigns

THE Chef de Police of St Lawrence has been suspended following an investigation by the Attorney General and subsequently resigned from the post.


£1,000 increase for 2009

From St Mary Constable Juliette Gallichan, chairman, Privileges and Procedures Committee. FOLLOWING the publication of the letter from Brendan Brady (JEP, 9 July) entitled ‘What’s happening with Members’ pay?’ I thought it might be helpful to your readers for me to answer that question.


Dingle dominant

JERSEYMAN Bruce Dingle has maintained his lead at the top of both the SM Cup and SXV Supermotard Championships after another impressive weekend of racing.
