Winter Wildlife Walks 2Carr
House Farm, Foston on the Wolds, 10am-3pm Side Oven Bakery, based in Foston on the Wolds, East Yorkshire are once again opening their gates to the public for their popular annual Winter Wildlife Walks Open Day in partnership with the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust on Sunday. The event is free and open to everyone. Guided wildlife walks will set off at 10.30am and 1.30pm from the meeting point at the bakery.
Each walk will take approximately 1 to 1 ½ hours (dependent on what wildlife there is and how many are on the walk) and is between 1.5 to 2 miles. The ground conditions will be wet under foot and most of it is on grassed margins so good outdoor footwear/wellies will be needed.
The walks are suitable for all ages, children are very welcome. If the walk is too far you are welcome to cut it short to suit little legs. There is a much shorter walk on a stoned track which can be done without a ‘guide’ on the day as well.
The Yorkshire Wildlife Trust will also be hosting an interactive Owl information stand, with box designs, owl pellets and general information about the different species of owl that live in the local area.
The Side Oven Bakery will be serving hot refreshments all day. Plenty of parking and disabled access. www.sideoven.com

Stan and Ollie (PG) 4Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough
The true story of Hollywood’s greatest comedy double act, Laurel and Hardy, is brought to the big screen for the first time.

With their golden era long behind them, the pair embark on a variety hall tour of Britain and Ireland. Despite the pressures of a hectic schedule, and with the support of their wives Lucille (Shirley Henderson) and Ida (Nina Arianda) – a formidable double act in their own right – the pair’s love of performing, as well as for each other,
endures as they secure their place in the hearts of their adoring public.
Show times are today, Friday, 2.45pm and 7.45pm; tomorrow, Saturday, 2pm, 5pm and 8pm; Monday, 7.45pm; Thursday 7 February, 1.45pm and 7.15pm.
