Becky’s Movie Previews It finally happened, we got some summer sun! As the British weather is very unpredictable, here are some options for a trip to the cinema this July.

Coming Soon…

Spider-Man Homecoming With this first solo outing for new Spidey Tom Hollander it will be the third new Spider-Man in the last 10 years. Many, including myself wonder why there is a need for another incarnation when Andrew Garfield did such a great job in the Amazing Spider-Man films.

However, we got a glimpse of the new guy in Captain America: Civil War and Homecoming is taking place a few months after then and critics were impressed with Hollander’s take.

Now returning to his normal life as a 15 year old High School student in Queens, New York, Peter Parker must learn to adjust to his new life as a superhero under the watchful eye of Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr, IronMan) and also balance this with teenage life.

Peter must soon put his powers to the test when the evil Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges to threaten everything that he holds dear.

Release date: July 5th 2017

Cars 3 Blindsided by a new generation of blazing-fast cars, the legendary Lighting McQueen (Owen Wilson) finds himself pushed out of the sport that he loves. Hoping to get back in the game, he turns to Cruz Ramirez, an eager young technician who has her own plans for winning. With inspiration from his late mentor, Doc Hudson and a few unexpected turns, he prepares to compete on Piston Cup Racing's biggest stage and prove that he still has what it takes.

Directed by Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight series, Inception) this war epic is in good hands. There hasn’t been much interest in making a film about an event which was a pretty dark time during the Second World War but Nolan is taking a stab at it and I have no doubts he will succeed in delivering a true depiction of those dark days. Hailed as the British Saving Private Ryan, this film has many bright British stars that include Kenneth Branagh, Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy and Mark Rylance. This also features the debut film role of Harry Styles of One Direction fame who apparently

won the role after auditioning against hundreds of other actors. His part my not be too big but it could draw in a few more audience members from the die-hard Directioners.

Probably not a film to see for a relaxing experience but sure to be an epic that’s worth seeing.

Russell Grant’s Horoscopes - July Let this family member paper and pet you. A little tender loving care will recharge your batteries. Begin work on a creative project as August approaches.

GEMINI May 22ndJune 21st

ARIES March 21stApril 20th Your services are required on the home front at the beginning of July. It may be necessary to take time off work to handle domestic responsibilities. Your employer won't be happy with the situation, but you have no other option.

Neighbours are ready to lend a helping hand. Don't fail to accept their offers of help. On the 9th, the Full Moon will come to your professional rescue. You'll be able to leave a restricting work situation for a far better one. Don't let erratic behaviour hurt your reputation in the middle of the month. If you feel restless, find a healthy channel for your nervous energy. Brisk exercise and creative projects can relieve tension. The New Moon on the 23rd is perfect for fulfilling romantic desires. If you're single, you will meet someone special at a sporting event or contest. Are you already in a relationship? Arrange a fun outing that's tailored to your amour's taste.

TAURUS April 21stMay 21st Handling facts and figures will be harder than you thinking. You may decide to take a course at the beginning of the month.

Expanding your skill set will make you less reliant on expensive experts. Money for luxuries will be available; give yourself a treat for facing up to a challenging situation. The Full Moon on the 9th will mark the successful conclusion of a legal matter. You'll be happy to put this situation behind you and focus on more rewarding pursuits. Taking an overseas journey could transform your dreams and aspirations.

During the second half of July, you'll enjoy spending more time in and around your home. This is a great time to invent recipes and redecorate drab rooms. On the 23rd, the New Moon will send help in the form of an attentive relative.

18

Throwing money at a problem won't make it disappear. In order to overcome a persistent problem, you'll have to use all your willpower and determination. Your efforts will pay off handsomely, giving you a confidence that will turn heads. On the 9th, the Full Moon will enrich your bank account in the form of an inheritance, refund or royalty payment. Use this money to create long term financial security. This would be a great time to put a down payment on a home or car.

During the middle of the month, you'll be tempted to splash out on a lot of lavish status symbols.

Ignore this desire; you'll quickly tire of a fancy mobile or entertainment centre. The New Moon on the 23rd will find you flirting with an attentive admirer.

This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. As July comes to a close, you'll get a chance to sell your skills or your handiwork for a tidy profit.

CANCER June 22ndJuly 23rd A pushy attitude will create problems in a close relationship.

You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar at the start of the month. A brilliant moneymaking idea is worth checking out. Turn a deaf ear to a pessimistic pal or reluctant relative who thinks this particular is doomed to disaster.

The Full Moon on the 9th will bring a welcome opportunity to repair a strained romance. Put an end to an ongoing power struggle and work together instead. An opportunity to improve your living space will arrive at mid-month.

Take this opportunity to buy furniture, artwork and appliances that appeal to your impeccable taste. On the 23rd, the New Moon will inspire you to start a project that is dear to your heart. Doing work that is personally meaningful will uplift and inspire you. It will also give you the courage to break away from an oppressive situation that has drained your energy.

LEO July 24thAugust 23rd Your working environment will feel

oppressive at the beginning of July, due to a cantankerous colleague.

It's time to file an official complaint. If you can't put space between you and them, start looking for another position. On the 9th, you'll feel able to wrap up your duties and move on to a bigger and better opportunity.

Don't worry if it takes a while to get your bearings toward the middle of the month. A little patience and persistence will pay off; it will take a long time to get accustomed to new surroundings or changed circumstances. The New Moon on the 23rd will find you stepping into an enjoyable role. Serving as a spokesperson for a company or cause will be a great use of your star power. The closing days of the month will let you slow down your pace. Take this opportunity to rest, relax and recharge your batteries. A break will allow you to take full advantage of all the magic that awaits you in August.

VIRGO August 24thSeptember 23rd A romantic partner will urge you to abandon a lifelong dream at the beginning of July. You may decide it's better to break off the relationship than ditch those things that are dear to your heart.

Putting the finishing touches to a new career plan or creative idea will open your eyes to the potential of a new life direction. The Full Moon on the 9th will prompt you to make an important decision about your love life. It may be better to go solo than stay with someone who dampens your spirit.

During the second half of the month, you will be in great demand. Be willing to explain and expound your views and values.

People will be very receptive to your ideas. By the 23rd, you'll be able to take a well-deserved break from your labours. Head for a glamorous country you've always wanted to visit. You'll have a wonderful time dining at fine restaurants, going to concerts and sightseeing at museums. Enjoy.

LIBRA September 24thOctober 23rd You're tired of insufferable behaviour of someone you live with or work with. Instead of enduring their outrageous behaviour with a silent smile, confront them head on about it at the beginning of the month.

People will rally to your side. If someone as courteous as you has

Please tell your Local Business where you saw their Advert

reached their breaking point, it means there is a real problem. On the 9th, the Full Moon will help you wrap up an important domestic matter. It's a great time to buy or sell a piece of property.

Alternatively, you may decide to move to somewhere that is radically different from your current home. The second half of July will be festive. You'll enjoy making the rounds of a series of parties. The New Moon on the 23rd will mark the beginning of a group project. Working alongside other creative people will bring out the best in you. At the end of the month, go on a job interview, make a presentation or even try your hand at local politics.

SCORPIO October 24thNovember 22nd At the start of July, angry words could be exchanged with a powerful individual. You may decide it's no longer worth it to put up with this oppressive person.

Don't second guess or go back on your decision. Although it will take time to find another opportunity, it will come eventually. The Full Moon on the 9th will bring reassuring news that you made the right choice. Solitary activities will be therapeutic during the middle of the month. Head off to a quiet retreat near the water where you can hear yourself think. On the 23rd, the New Moon will bring an exciting career opportunity that makes your eyes sparkle with joy.

Being able to work for a glamorous company or industry will renew your zest for life. As August approaches, you'll have a chance to travel abroad. Take this opportunity to buy some beautiful items you couldn't possibly find at home. Art made by local craftspeople is especially favoured.

SAGITTARIUS November 23rd- December 21st Money will be thin on the ground at the beginning of the month.

This isn't a good time to make expensive purchases. You can have plenty of inexpensive fun at home. Invite friends over for a meal and box set marathon. On the 9th, you could receive a fiscal fillip, courtesy of the Full Moon.

After paying your bills, put the rest of this money in savings. You will need a cushion to protect you from financial uncertainty. The middle of the month will put a strain on a romantic relationship. You may decide your amour is too emotional for your taste. Don't

CAPRICORN December 22nd- January 20th Show respect for a loved one's opinions throughout early July.

Although you want them to adopt your views, you may never change them. It will probably be best to agree to disagree. Balancing your personal and professional lives will also be difficult; putting in a lot of overtime will hurt your loved one's feelings. The Full Moon on the 9th will give you a greater measure of control over a chaotic situation.

Take this opportunity to salvage a project that is falling apart at the seams. During the middle of the month, you'll be doing battle with a relative whose erratic behaviour drives you to distraction. Unless this family member gets help for their issues, you may want to keep a healthy distance. On the 23rd, the New Moon will prompt you to embark on an intimate relationship. Let down your defences with someone who has proven their loyalty. Property Matters are favoured as August draws near.

Call us on 01246 828378 You'll make a hit on social media as August approaches.

PISCES February 20thMarch 20th Friends will want you to put an end to an enjoyable hobby in the early days of July. Stick to your guns; you're too smart to bow to peer pressure and there's no reason why you should. Staying true to your ideals could put you in the path of romance.

People will be so impressed with your efforts that you'll be offered bigger and better assignments.

Toward the middle of July, you'll find family relationships will get challenging. To go along with a stuffy relative, you'll have to put on a false front toward the middle of the month. On the 23rd, you'll receive and interesting offer, courtesy of the New Moon. You'll jump at the opportunity to get paid for exercising your imagination. As August approaches, you'll be working on a financially and emotionally fulfilling project.

Multicultural Charity Concert… …AT CHESTERFIELD LIBRARY Fri 14 Jul 2017 19:15 All Tickets £10.00 Village Ventures presents a multicultural Charity Concert This concert is to raise much-needed funds to help the blind to see.

Funds will go towards a project to fund Cataract operations for 250 people in Mali. It’s a very necessary programme for people in Mali. Many suffer for want of food and water so for blindness to strike adds even more hardship to an already difficult life. Village Ventures hope to assist in some small way by helping some of those now blind to see again. All proceeds from this Charity Concert will go to support this programme.

This concert will be held in Chesterfield Library Theatre.

Tickets can be purchased from Chesterfield Visitor Information Centre (01246) 345777 or on the door at the event.

Cat Psychology…

I thought this month I would write about cats. Cat psychology is often misunderstood and they are perceived as loners but can be immensely loving and pack animals.

So let’s understand some of their behaviours better Licking - Cats tongues have a built-in grooming brush on their tongues to keep fur clean and un-matted. They can often be seen also grooming each other and this stems back to pack behaviour in the wild. While not always a pleasant experience when they lick us they are in fact being friendly and treating as part of their own pack.

Kneading - When cats knead your lap or cushions they are basically trying to make you comfortable to lie on. However, this behaviour also harks back to when they were kittens and used to knead their mothers to stimulate milk so it is also believed this maybe that the cat is treating you as

its parent. A nice thought Yawning - Cats, like humans, often yawn and they can also use it to show they are relaxed in your company. In fact you will find dogs do the same.

Scratching - One of the things some people struggle with in cats are claws.

However, if you think about a cat’s natural environment they have to keep their claws in good condition to enable them to climb, hunt and generally get around by securing themselves when they jump. Cats claws grow quite quickly so that any damage is repaired rapidly. If they were to harm them in the wild this would leave them at risk. Scratching posts can often assist if scratching is an issue in the home environment.

As for scratching humans, generally cats will only do this out of fear and is a natural response to either protect themselves or to escape. These guys are little tigers so claws come as part of the wonderful package.

Rubbing - Cats have natural scent glands in the sides of the face under their whiskers so if you see them rubbing their faces against you, or the furniture

what they are doing is marking with their own scent and “claiming” you as part of their team.

Body language - A lot of body language in cats is similar to dogs. For example, if they roll on their backs with their belly showing they are most definitely being submissive Pets with their tail between the legs depicts fear. Trying to disguise their scent and ears can also be very telling. Cats hearing is much more acute than humans and ears back can mean they are listening to something which they feel may well be a threat to them.

Ears back, tail between legs, stiffened pose and hissing definitely should be a warning signs to back away.

Gifts - One of the nice (or not so nice) things about cats is they may bring you gifts, whilst “teaching” you to hunt. So when you get that mouse on the bed smile and say thank you!

Until next month…

Ponds were created, drainage ditches ensured that the water went where it was most needed, reed beds and native trees were planted.

Within a short time many varieties of plants, animals, birds and insects have come to live on the site
