Welcome to the June/July issue of About Knocklyon As Etta James sang ‘At Last....’ Yes, at last the summer is here, so a change of pace and maybe a little sunshine? Hope spring eternal! One thing that is for sure, is that school holidays will happen and Summer Camps will be in demand!

So, once again this year, we have a fantastic ‘summer camp special’ for you. Camps for young children, right up to teenagers - all run by locals for locals. There is everything on offer from sports activities, arts & crafts to languages. So, don’t delay - book your places! The Summer Camp Special will run across our Dundrum and Rathfarnham issues next month. So, if you missed out, just call us to be included for the July issues.

If you would like to Highlight a local event, cause, group or community activitity, why not get in touch?

This page is given over free of charge. Last month we Highlighted Carolyn Huey’s ‘Doggy Day Out’ in Marlay Park. By all accounts it was a wonderful success, with thousands raised for the DSPCA. Thank you all for supporting a great cause.

On a personal note, this is my last time publishing About Knocklyon. It has been more than 4 years since I put out the first issue (my it has improved!!) and I can honestly say I have enjoyed every minute of it. I have met hundreds of wonderful local people and unearthed local gems through the clubs, activities and groups all active in the area. I also got to know hundreds of local business people, with businesses of every shape and size.

I am stepping aside to develop ‘About Magazines’ as a licenced business and hopefully bring more ‘About Magazines’ issues to communities around Dublin and beyond. If you want to know more (see page 47) just give me a call on 499 3022.

Stuart Ferguson will now be at the helm and is your new contact for the magazine. His looking forward to hearing from you. I am sure that you will support Stuart and continue to provide him with your local news, events and advertising in the months ahead.

ABOUT LOCAL BUSINESS

Pauline has the ‘Ki’ for success!

by Fiona Tuomey We have all been bombarded with bad news stories of businesses closing and redundancies.

However, it is not all doom and gloom. There are plenty of enterprising local people, who are turning things and putting their best entrepreneurial foot forward!

pop down to see Pauline in Tramway Cottage and find your ‘Ki’ to a renewed you!

You can find Pauline and Ki for Life at Tramway Cottage, 19 Rathfarnham Road, Terenure, Dublin 6.

Phone: (01) 406 7675. www.kiforlife.com

Last year Pauline McDermott was made redundant from her job at a local estate agent. However, while Pauline was greatly saddened by her job loss, she picked herself up and decided to forge ahead and open her own business.

For many years Pauline studied Complementary therapies including Shiatsu, Bio-Energy and Hypnotherapy. She has worked with individuals and businesses in Ireland and UK, but purely as a labour of love and a way of generating a small income. Redundancy proved to be the push she needed to realize her dreams.

Pauline McDermott, Ki for Life

According to Pauline: “I believe that some things happen for a reason. As soon as I made the decision to open my own business, beautiful premises called ‘Tramway Cottage’ came available on the Rathfarnham Road”.

“It was the perfect location for my business, Ki for Life, a little oasis of peace, right in the heart of Terenure”.

‘Ki’ means ‘Energy’ in Japanese and Pauline offers a range of complementary treatments which offer clients a chance to recharge, relax and re-energize.

Pauline explained: “I suffered ill-health for many years and benefitted greatly from treatments such as Bio-Energy and Shiatsu. This lead to a life-long interest in complementary therapies. At Ki for Life we offer treatments, regular workshops and free trial classes for people who may not be familiar with our treatments, but would like to find out more.”

So, if you find yourself stressed out, lacking in energy or simply in need of a bit of TLC, why not 12 | ABOUT KNOCKLYON

ABOUT LOCAL CLUBS

Driving Ahead at Ballinascorney Golf Club, Rathfarnham

by Pauline Kearney On March 21st the members of Ballinascorney Golf Club turned out in force to support their captains’ drive-in. This ever popular occasion ensured a full time sheet with shot gun starts at 10am and 2pm. The day boded well for a good year’s golf for club members, a club that has exciting plans for the development of the course during the coming year.

The club management is also engaging them in the design and provision of a new course layout, which will greatly enhance the playing experience for the members of Ballinascorney Golf Club, societies and green fee visitors.

Captain 2010 Jim Kennedy and Lady Captain Maureen Flanagan.

ABOUT GARDENING

Round the Garden in June

by Tom Percy June is a wonderful month, with lots of sunshine, no risk of frost, and plenty of daylight hours to spend in the garden.

Prepare Tomatoes being moved from greenhouse to outdoors should be conditioned for a few days. Take them out during the day and put them back at night to avoid the shock of a change in climate. Plants which have finished flowering can be lifted and divided in June.

Now is the time to stake carnations and dahlias to encourage upright growth. Mulch around trees and shrubs to conserve moisture.

Prune Continue to thin out carrots, parsnips, beetroot and other such plants. This is also the month to thin out plums and apples, but it’s best to wait until after the trees’ natural shedding before tackling this job. Cut back on untidy growth of bushes and shrubs and remove unsightly seed heads.

One thing to bear in mind is that the garden isn’t just about work. It is also a part of the home, a place to use and enjoy. So make sure that you allocate time to do simply nothing, apart from rest in the shade and admire your handiwork.

Plant Purchased and greenhouse raised plants can be planted out this month, but do make sure to water in really well. Sowing should be done in sets to give a succession of fresh salad and vegetables over the coming months. In very dry weather, it is a good idea to thoroughly soak the seed drill prior to sowing.

Bytes & Pieces Managing your email As email becomes more and more popular as a method of communicating, sorting the ‘wheat from the chaff’ becomes increasingly difficult. If you are expecting an important mail from a friend or are looking for an older email, it’s often a bit of search amongst all the marketing messages and order confirmations that are also sent to you.

The trick is to set yourself up with two email accounts. Choose an easy to remember one for your friends and family to send messages on, and a more unusual address (making you less likely to get spam) for when you sign up to websites, or buy online.

For example, you could have one account with your ISP (e.g. yourname@o2.ie) and another with an independent operator such as hotmail or googlemail e.g. yourname@googlemail.com. You can use their own programs to access the mail, or use something like Windows Mail, Windows Live, or Thunderbird (free from Mozilla) to see both accounts in one window but in separate folders.

ABOUT TAROTSCOPES

Tarotscopes by Mags ARIES A little time out enables you to reconcile differences between you and your special loved one. All will work out to a satisfactory conclusion. Crossing the sea is a link in the chain of catalytic events, ultimately and divinely set to get you back on track with your love life. An appearance of super efficiency is vital in the work place at this time.

TAURUS Work to the music while you shed pounds for the abundant travel laid out for you. This summer is set to be the most memorable of all. This is why all you set in motion now pays huge dividends later. Signing up for one or more courses now can give you the edge when it comes to business. Unattached? Not for long. True love with an age gap arrives on your doorstep.

GEMINI A set of keys which mark your territory is more than just a possibility. Cards advise that you for once set a compromise rather than pay the price of austere stoicism. Make no mistakes; you are the ruler of your own destiny.

You can and will succeed, but be compassionate to all concerned. The lovers card brings happiness in the love area. A date may be set?

LIBRA You have had a peculiar few weeks. The signs are there for change. This is so good for you, as the inner you is finally emerging to be the whole, complete mind, body and soul which encompasses peace and harmony in all its beauty. You and a friend finally get to attend the classes on mediumship and spirituality. Yes! Love is very much yours to have and to hold.

SCORPIO Keeping your personal stuff yourself ensures no one can give back a distorted version. Your life journey may take you to a not so nice place, but the journey both good and bad is part of the destination. Without this you don’t have a background to base a solid and harmonious future. A second time romance leads to a wedded commitment.

SAGITTARIUS You are finally awake and realising your power in the universe. No matter what you look like, loving yourself and being comfortable in your own skin is your right and privilege. You are loved and cherished and you need to allow yourself enjoy the experience. A holiday to a themed location is well featured in this spread. A friendship made now lasts for life.

CANCER The beginning of a wonderful love is set to be your destiny.

Saying yes to a wedding invitation may take you across to the west. The book store attracts you towards a spiritual section.

You will never again settle for a love that misses out on soul mating. Outdoor pursuits; ie walking, cycling, tennis etc gives you the stamina, not to mention the figure you so crave.

AQUARIUS Given up on love? Not a chance! Love hasn’t given up on you. Five different, though related, celebratory events have your name on the invitations. Just as every action (or attendance) promotes a reaction, your attendance promotes yet another invitation. Ask the universe to fulfil your needs and watch the resulting abundance shower down upon you.

LEO A loved one who has passed on still cares deeply for you and is guiding your every move. A healing time now, both for you and for a different reason, your friend. It is important you be there foe each other. Planning a holiday abroad brings relative cheer. Celebrations around a child abound and a pride in achievement is strongly felt by you and yours. Enjoy!

CAPRICORN A gift of a pet can only bring out the love in you so do accept. You are a deep thinker and as such need to exercise more communication with others. Without a doubt there is a book in you and the sooner you sit at the computer the better. You have much to teach mankind, but first you must consent to being a pupil therefore qualifying you to be the teacher.

VIRGO A re-birth of a love relationship is forecast in this spread, so, if you have of late, been teetering on the edge of sanity regarding your love life, fear not the cards are stacked in your favour, you are calling the shots. You have a big decision to make, one that can change your life and lead you to a total change in lifestyle. You are lucky. You have choices.

PISCES The work you are offered may not be to your taste, but is a temporary relief while you await your true calling. A birth announcement warms the heart of the family. You are such a psychic soul that you should always be extremely aware of karma and put extreme goodness out to the universe, thereby ensuring goodness and abundance showering upon you!
