The Cover Story


Our cover features John OSullivan, a comedian from Horsham. Johns popularity saw him sell out shows at The Capitol and The Hawth wii>>}vi>Li>]ireturning to the stage and tickets were on the verge of selling out as AAH went to press.John actually hired Toby Phillips for a photoshoot to publicise his show and this is one of the more sensible images from that shoot. Others had John posing in stilettos or doing an impression of Mr Methane! John has been begging to be

featured in AAH for years, to which weve always responded You have to actually do something that we can write about!Now that hes not only been featured, but made the cover, we hope hell leave us alone!I would also have loved to use the image of historian Gary Cooper on the cover, as his books on Horshams war heroes are an incredible achievement. But there wasnt quite space for the AAH logo!

You can read our interview with John OSullivan on Page 67

i>]}>>wV>The boys were aged 14 to 21, but very few of them were towards the younger end of that scale. I would take them out in the community; they would do the shopping for old people living in the almshouses. We >>`>}vVwiran sessions for boxing, judo,weightlifting and football, and brought in others to run drama and model aircraft clubs. Some parents chipped in too, running cooking courses or helping on Bingo nights.

Our football team did very well. We entered the Crawley league at 1ìii>`>vi}the division we quickly moved into senior football. In those days, there were four divisions of the Horsham Vi>}i>ii>}i>àt least one team. The Boys Club team progressed from the fourth ìw]>ìiwon that we moved into Intermediate level football. In doing so, we changed the name to Horsham Olympic, and that team is still going today.

Never could I profess to be a professional football coach. But I was good at training players because of my Army experience.As a PTI, I was responsible for the wi>}vi,i}iteam, which was made up of professional footballers who had been called up for National Service.

and arranged holidays to Jersey, Belgium and France, introducing young people to travel. Over the years, ours became one of the biggest clubs in the country.

7i}iiw>i`into the club, it was big news! I remember that the Boys Club committee were not initially keen on the idea, so we started off by letting girls become members and come in only for the dance on a Friday night. The club would be absolutely rammed on dance night. It would take half an hour Vi`>Viy>`>`to lock the doors to keep others out. We broke all the rules!

Sometimes, wed see rival Mods and Rockers groups turn up. I would let one group in and Id talk ii>`>vi>]come back next week and Ill let you in instead. We never had much troublel. If anyone started >w}]iV`LiL>i`Some of them might head up to

the pub at the station, but the landlord would call me and ask how old they were!

Another popular aspect the Boys Club was the annual show at the old Capitol Theatre. Somehow, I was introduced to Bill Pertwee (Dads Army) who came up with an idea of bringing rising stars to the town. Tom Jones came along one year. He was supposed to perform for 10 minutes but was still on the stage after 40 minutes! Bill and his brother John (a future Doctor Who) would arrange all of the acts and I would do the rest. It always sold out.

Debbie, on Boys Club holidays. We had some real rough, tough kids. I vividly recall one boy, a biker who was often in trouble, reading Noddy books to my daughter by the pool when she was about four years old. The kids always looked after my daughter.

Because of my youth work, I was invited to become a magistrate. Its always a bit of a joke that I introduced the working class into the Magistrates Court! However, I was always made very welcome. I LiV>iw>i>>in both the Juvenile Court and the Magistrates Court, and in due course Chairman of the Juvenile Court for 10 years and Chairman of the Bench for the maximum period vwii>Im told that I was a very fair magistrate. A chap once came to see me after I had sentenced him to six months in prison. He said, I wanted to tell you that you were very fair and to thank you for the way you treated me in court. Another chap later told me that he was looking at the lions on the crest behind the magistrates, wishing that they would come alive and bite my head off!

Eventually, the set up of youth clubs changed. I was invited to become a 9"vwVi]LiV>Vwith young people in such a role, and become more of a supervisor. It was the youth club chairman, Frank Ayling, who said have you ever thought about setting up your own business? iii`v`wshop.

Inge and I discussed ideas. As well as coaching at the Boys Club, I would coach spors every >viV>V/iwwas Newells School (now Handcross Park) and then came several other private schools. I also coached boxing and introduced judo to Manor School in Horsham. So really, a sports shop was the obvious idea.

We had to sell off some of the menswear stock and Peter Bowles (To the Manor Born) >ivwVi]buying very long legged trousers! Amongst the celebrities visiting us regularly during the early days were Phil Collins for footballs for his son, and Mike Rutherford for cricket bats and tennis racquets.

July 2015

After a couple of months of light training, Katrinas health took a turn for the worse. Her recovering right arm started to turn red, and on the advice of her daughters, Katrina went to the doctor, who immediately diagnosed septicae-mia and called an ambulance.

I was in Brighton Hospital for another two weeks. They opened up my arm and found an abscess underneath a metal plate. They opened up my arm again and removed the abscess, but it just didnt calm down. It became re-infected and they needed to open it up for a third time. Eventually, the infection died down and for the next two months I had to administer the medicine through intravenous therapy.

Katrina was given the all clear, and started training again a month later. With her left arm

After a few good months of training, Katrina entered the British Championships with low expectations, but came away as the winner of the left arm competition. She bravely decided to enter the right hand competition too, and against all the odds, made it to iw>

feeling strong, she felt that the British Championships in Lancashire, scheduled for December, were still a possible target.

I read about competitors in America who have suffered breaks and had to give up arm wrestling. To my relief, I found that my right arm felt good in training.

DIFFERENT STROKESGordon Rushmers paintings depict the reality of war

When choosing people to head out to a war zone, the military is looking for people with certain skills.You need to be in good shape, physically, have some form of wi>>}]>`Li>Lito cope with the psychological demands placed upon you.And, in the case of Gordon Rushmer, be handy with watercolours!

Gordon, who lives in Plaistow, is currently exhibiting his work at Horsham Museum and Art Gallery.Whilst his paintings of rural landscapes feature heavily, it is Gordons work as a war artist that commands most attention. His 10-year period as a war artist began in 1997, with a trip to Bosnia with Dutch Marines.At that time, I didnt have a Vi>Lw}>>but I learned pretty quickly, says Gordon.When I returned, the Royal Marines said What are you doing working for the Dutch?

We could use you!

ARTISTS AT WAR

You might wonder why the Royal Marines would want an artist among its ranks.For hundreds of years, war artists have been used by the British Army to create a visual account of all aspects of war.Despite the advances ofphotography, war artists are still employed. Dozens were used during the First and Second World War, with several losing their life whilst serving.The Royal Marines have been buying paintings by war artists since the 17th century to keep a record of campaigns, said Gordon.I dont know at which point of a war an artist is required, but in terms of the training and level of support, its well organised.

Gordon was asked to be an vwV>>>Li2000.Having accepted the challenge,

he needed to undergo training Livii>`}VyVzones.

Gordon said: I had to wear an Army uniform with face paint for the training exercises, and was ii>}wi>}I was in my 50s, so it was tough, but they taught me how me how to look after myself up to a point, and eventually said Okay, now we can use you.

COLOURS THAT SING

Whilst Gordon occasionally paints with oils, he is renowned for his watercolours. It is the challenge of the medium that appealsWith oils, if you make a mis-take, you can scrape it off and paint over it, says Gordon. With watercolours, you cant You have to get it right, so I think its quite an intellectual exercise. >`vwVi`idrawing horses - if you get it wrong, everybodys going to know and I enjoy that challenge.Oils are great to work with, as you can add texture and build layers, but it doesnt have the wiiv>iVseen as being a bit twee and out of fashion, but you can make a watercolour sing.

THE QUIET LIFE

Gordon last tour was to Helmand in 2007, which he found hard going.He had reached an age where the discomfort of being in a war

zone outweighed the enjoyment of being a war artist.Now, at the age of 70, Gordon is still a full time painter, but his work tends to focus on the more tranquil setting of the Sussex countryside.

He said: If Im totally honest, I

dont enjoy landscape painting as much as war painting. But the challenge is the same, in that you need to paint something that will sell.

Rural landscape painting may not offer the same adrenaline rush, but it is still the everyday

scenes that Gordon likes to capture.On one occasion, Gordon was advised to visit Shipley Windmill, as it might make for an interesting subject. It did indeed inspire an idea, although the windmill is only just visible in the background of Gordons painting!He said: I stood there looking at the windmill, read a bit about Belloc, and thought Yes, very nice!Then I carried on walking and was strolling past Shipley Church where I came across three tombs, side-by-side. They really jumped out at me.It is often the mundane things - not the showstoppers that make all of us stop and look.
