Ms Houston died on the eve of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles and had been due to attend a pre-awards party in the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

In recent years, her career was overshadowed by substance abuse which damaged what was once described as the finest voice in pop music. She also suffered during a turbulent marriage to singer Bobby Brown with allegations of abuse.

Maybe it could be twinned with a future Stalin World or Genghis Towers.

This popular local delicacy was given protected status under EU law in 2011 and the Cornish Pasty Association, which is backing the event, hopes people from around the world will take part. The event is being held on March 3rd, the Saturday before St Piran’s Day.

Judges will be looking for the best Cornish pasty made to the traditional recipe and the Cornish Pasty Association has declared that an authentic pasty should have a distinctive ‘D’ shape and be crimped on one side, never on top. The filling should be ‘chunky, made up of uncooked mince or chunks of beef with swede, potato and onion and a light seasoning’ before being slow-baked.
