Why the change?

FIRSTLY, THANK YOU for getting this far and picking up a Jersey Weekly to read – just your doing that each week is what has kept us going this long already.

You’re our kind of reader!

We started Jersey Weekly over 2 years ago and since launching as a free magazine we seem to have confirmed what we first suspected – that Jersey does like having an up-to-date weekly guide full of the latest local information.

In fact it’s become so popular that you will notice, it comes out each Thursday/Friday and, if you don’t get a copy by Monday, all the stands are empty - the thousands of copies given away for free are all gone!

So, in fact, it was only free if you were fast enough and lucky enough to get there first, otherwise you’d have to hope you could get a copy the next week. And it’s been even more difficult to get a copy from locations ‘out of Town’.

“Ask the advertisers for more money”, we hear you say! Well, of course we have considered that - but it’s not quite so simple.

In case you hadn’t noticed the economy has slowed, and Jersey has many ‘freesheet’ publications all making increasing demands on decreasing advertising budgets.

Higher costs are passed on to customers, which in turn causes inflation and further slows business or takes money away from other important investments.

We’ve always had a policy of only including informative advertising that readers will find useful each week, so that every page will be interesting to someone.

And we price our advertising much lower than our competitors because we need those businesses to be able afford long-term relationships, so trust in us to concentrate on keeping the magazine useful and interesting for you to read each week.

We have even kept the Classifieds section free for individuals so that everyone can see and benefit from having a dedicated weekly advertiser for Jersey.

JerseyTrader. com launches it’s own 40 page property, vehicles and recruitment advertiser. A summary of the weeks’ upcoming events was included. (Who WAS that guy on the cover?)

Jersey Trader becomes Jersey Weekly, changing the name of both the magazine and the website.

A trickle of property features and local ‘top 10 question’ style interviews have begun to appear.

Jersey Weekly changes its look framed in the now instantly recognisable, yet recently departed, black border.

It is also now printed in a handier smaller B5 format for all to enjoy.

As we keep adding more and more content as all the businesses, organisations and charities see that Jersey Weekly is the perfect place to spread the word on their activities here.

So, the only fair answer is to ask you the reader to help us with a small contribution towards the printing costs each week. Which, in return we can use to make sure everyone that wants to can get a copy, and we can continue to invest in independent and insightful journalism.

Plus, we’re passionate about our community and raising awareness of local issues; so we’ll be using this new business model to raise money for local charities by donating 10% of the sales EVERY WEEK to a different local charity.

With all this in mind, if you have a cause that you’d like us to include in this, or any other feedback or requests, please email us on hello@jerseyweekly.com. We are looking forward to bringing you more of what you really want to read about and see each week with ‘something for everyone’.

Thank you again for all your support and helping us grow this magazine for everyone’s enjoyment.

Your loyal team at Jersey Weekly

Local News Roundup Words by Jen Smith from Channel 103, news@jerseyweekly.com

Population rises by 10% in 10 years We learnt last week that there’s been a massive rise in the number of people living in Jersey, with the population increasing by more than 9,000 in ten years.

As of March 2011 it stood at 97,857. Back in 2001 the Census put the population at 87,186.

Since then experts have introduced a new way of measuring the population and say that means there are 9,100 more people here now, not 10,671.

That means they’ve included the ‘undercount’ - the number who didn’t respond to the questionnaire.

The Census also revealed 6,800 people moved here in the past decade.

But Chief Minister Senator Ian Gorst doesn’t want the data to become an immigration argument: “Our community involves people from other places, and yes people have moved here. The priority now is to ensure there are jobs for those people, jobs in Jersey.”

The Chief Minister acknowledged that the Census uncovered the true picture of our unemployment problem.

It’s because the headcount involves the so-called ILO measurement, which includes everyone who could have a job but doesn’t, not just those registered.

It means that just under 2,600 were out of work in March, twice as many known to be ‘seeking work’ with Social Security.

To take legal action or not to take legal action, that’s the question We found out last week how the UK Government will scrap Low Value Consignment Relief.

The draft Finance Bill’s been published, meaning the Channel

Islands will soon know exactly where they stand.

There are two options for Jersey’s government - to launch a legal challenge, or accept the removal of LVCR and deal with the consequences.

The States is looking to see if the Finance Bill discriminates against the Channel Islands, and if there’s ground for court action.

But time’s short - the relief is due to end in April leaving local online retailers in an uncertain position.

We’re expecting an announcement from our government in the next few days.

to be apolitical. We can’t have a political party – the left or the right – picking what they do, so it has to be a neutral body.

It also has to encompass wide parts of our society, not just people in business but people in the third sector etc. So it is a challenge”.

Esplanade development gets go ahead

Unknown Man Buried An inquest into the death of a man whose body was discovered washed up at Havre des Pas in 2008 heard last week it wasn’t possible to identify him.

Extensive forensic tests and an international appeal failed to uncover how, when or where the mystery man came to his death.

All experts know is that the man was in his 30s and they think he was probably from somewhere in the Horn of Africa, Yemen or the UAE.

GST rise meant lighter baskets

In the chamber last week the States gave the go ahead to press on with developing the Esplanade.

Forensic Services Manager Vicky Coupland said because of the tidal range here it’s not even known where he entered the water.

We found out last week that we spent less in Jersey’s shops and supermarkets in the summer months.

St Helier Constable Simon Crowcroft had asked for the government to delay the plans so we could have another say.

The mystery man’s DNA profile will be kept on record in case it becomes possible to identify him in the future.

It’s the first time we’ve bought less food since the recession began and coincides with June’s rise in GST.

But after a long debate politicians want the first phase to get going - although they have protected the area around La Folie pub for now.

The Very Reverend Bob Keys led the funeral service at Surville cemetery in St Helier on Tuesday.

In the three months to the end of September overall volume sales were 7% lower than the previous quarter, and 5% lower than a year earlier.

It’s the first time goods sold in food stores have fallen for almost three years.

Plan B but not as we know it A policy think tank should be looking twenty years ahead to secure Jersey’s economic success.

We found out last week that the Chamber of Commerce has put together a list of ten action points it’s dubbing a Plan B for our financial future.

Number one is an audit to work out if the estimated £3.5 billion of States assets are being used to the best effect.

The vote came after the States of Jersey Development Company – the firm responsible for changing the area – issued their plans under new MD Lee Henry.

Mr Henry reckons he can produce a Jersey International Finance Centre that would actually put money back in the States pockets and have less of an impact on the area.

Politicians decided to back him in the chamber by 28 votes to 20.

Economic Development Minister Senator Alan Maclean was one of those keen to press ahead: “I urge members not to lose the vast investment this project will give our economy, the significant boost it will give to our economy, to businesses and of course, to jobs”.

Chamber President David Warr says we need a longer-term approach:

That’s a mouthful Hundreds of islanders flocked to the Royal Square for lunch last week as the Island’s annual Soup Kitchen brought out the crowds.

Chefs from local restaurants and hotels provided hundreds of litres of broths of all flavours for the tasty charity fundraiser.

And Islanders showed their generous sides as volunteers dished out more than £11,500 in soup for homeless people in Jersey.

The total is slightly down on last year when £12,500 was raised but organizer Michelle Cuthbert said that could be partly down to a shortage of soup: “We could have sold an awful lot more. A huge number of people came after we’d run out, and we feel awful about that when we can’t give them anything.

But the support was still there and it was absolutely amazing.”

Young conservationists to secure the future of endangered species under a new guise

to launch the new name and the Durrell Teenage Volunteers are very much looking forward to learning more about how they can make a real difference, working towards the conservation charity’s misson to save species from extinction.”

In a separate donation, DCG has also given Durrell 50 seventeen inch monitors which the business no longer required.

St James’ Church

Work to repair the exterior of St James’ Church in St Helier will get underway in early 2012 if proposals by Jersey Property Holdings ( JPH) meet Planning’s historic buildings requirements.

Various proposals have been prepared since 2007 to address the building defects, but they have either not met the requirements or were unaffordable.

JPH has recently undertaken a detailed survey of the building to determine an alternative method for carrying out the works to both meet the planning requirements and reduce the cost.

Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust’s young conservationists JPH will obtain competitive tenders for the work from local will be helping to secure the future of endangered species contractors early in 2012 with repair work to be completed by under a new name after it was discovered the group shared next summer. the same initials as those registered by a local finance business.

DCG employees Jo Robinson and Andrew McNulty came up with the winning name and both won family memberships for one year. Two teenage winners, Matt Fauvel and Eve Taylor-Cox, also won the opportunity to adopt an animal for a year and chose an otter and a tamarin monkey.

Assistant Minister for Treasury and Resources, Deputy Eddie Noel, said:

JPH is working with the Department for Education, Sport and Culture to examine the potential to co-locate Youth Service facilities to the St James site by utilising the now vacant school building and In addition, DCG has donated various items to Durrell vicarage and enhancing the performance space for both the Youth Teenage Volunteers including waterproofs, binoculars and Service and other organisations. butterfly nets, as well as offering support in developing a new facebook page to promote the teenagers’ work and assisting with the costs of advertising around the name change.

Christopher Bennett, managing director of DCG Real Estate, commented: “When we realised Durrell was sharing our business name we wanted to come up with a fun and novel way to rebrand the young conservationists’. Durrell Teenage Volunteers encapsulates what the group is about and it has been a pleasure to work with the team at Durrell. Overall, DCG has supported Durrell Teenage Volunteers to the tune of more than £5,000 and we wish them well with their future projects.”

Improvements to the planning process Most planning decisions in Jersey will become quicker next year following the introduction of a package of measures by the Minister for Planning and Environment, which are designed to

improve the planning process.

The changes, which include the introduction of a quicker 8-week target for smaller domestic applications and new technology allowing the public to view plans and comment online, are a response to customer feedback about the current planning process.

It is hoped that the changes will not only make it easier for applicants and the public to liaise with the planning department, but will enable the department to operate more efficiently.

The Minister also hopes to work more closely with the new Environment Scrutiny Panel to identify other areas for improvement within the Department of the Environment.

2012 Swimarathon attracts more and more teams

The key changes include: 1. Performance targets – A shorter, 8 week target is to be introduced for smaller applications, to include domestic extensions/alterations and minor applications for commercial premises.

2. Online applications – A New IT system will go live in early 2012, and allow applications to be made on line and for the general public to view plans and proposals and for them to comment online.

3. New Ministerial protocol - Most applications will be reviewed and decided by department officers or the Planning Applications Panel. The Minister will only get involved in decisions in exceptional circumstances, for example planning schemes of Island-wide significance or those relating to regeneration zones.

4. Third party objections – The Planning Applications Panel will only deal with applications that receive at least 4 objections. Those with fewer objections will be considered by planning officers when making their decision. This will speed up the decision making process.

5. Faster and clearer decisions – Lengthy discussions between the applicant and the Department can delay decisions. In future, faster and clearer decisions will be made, even if this results in an application being refused. If an application is refused, the applicant will be able to submit a further application for the same type of development on the same site within 6 months without paying a fee.

6. Fairer planning appeals system - The Minister will consult on a new merit based planning appeal system that is less expensive for appellants than the current Royal Court based system. This will ensure greater equity in the planning system and offer greater independent challenge on planning decisions.

7. More Exemptions - The Minister has asked the planning department to work with the newly formed Environment Scrutiny Panel to extend the number of development exemptions. These are developments where planning permission is not required.

Minister for Planning and Environment, Deputy Robert Duhamel, said: “The introduction of these improved measures is

great news for Islanders. My department has listened to customer feedback and tried to make changes to the way in which we work so that we can provide people in Jersey with a faster, more efficient planning process. We will review these changes on a regular basis to ensure they are improving the service we offer.”

The 2012 Swimarathon, which will take place Wednesday to Sunday 7 to 11 March next year, has already attracted 354 teams, 70 more than at the same time last year. Consequently the event organisers, the Lions Club of Jersey, are urging teams who have either provisionally booked their swim times or who are still considering taking part to register with the Swimarathon Administrator as soon as possible, to ensure that they get to swim at or as near the time and day they prefer.

“So far, the forthcoming Swimarathon has attracted more interest than ever,’ says Lions Club spokesman Lion Peter Tabb. ‘We believe this is because we will be devoting a very significant proportion of what is raised to the Island’s youth organisations as a tribute to the late Hannah Johnson, the Lions Club of Jersey’s Young Ambassador of the 21st Century 2009 who tragically died aged 19 earlier this year.”

At the time of the launch, Mark Capern, head of the States Youth Service, said that this funding means clubs and organisations can continue to broaden their activities and services to meet the needs of young people, and will be a fantastic bonus for all positive work done by them.

For the sixth year running, RBC Wealth Management is sponsoring the event. “To have over 70% of the lanes booked three months ahead of the Swimarathon is a great result,’ said Chris Blampied, Managing Director, Royal Bank of Canada (Channel Islands) Limited. ‘We’re delighted that the island’s longest-running charity event continues to go from strength to strength. We hope the money raised at next year’s big swim will make a real difference to the young people in Jersey.”

Information and registrations are available from the Swimarathon Administrator, PO Box 397, St Helier, Jersey JE4 9ZX or via e-mail Swimarathon@jerseymail.co.uk.

May course planned for “Return to Practice” nurses

Open sessions aimed at attracting nurses back to work in Jersey attracted a range of candidates who want to re-enter the profession.

The course will consist of around 150 hours of theory, and 150 hours of clinical practice. Successful applicants will also have the opportunity to undertake supervised practice in an area related to their previous experience. Each person will also have a personal tutor, and excellent job opportunities.

Chief Nurse Rose Naylor said: “It is very encouraging to have

had such a good response to these open sessions, and we hope that nurses who already live in Jersey will undertake the course. The The ‘Return to Practice’ programme will start in May next course is a great opportunity for nurses living in Jersey to re-enter year, run by the nurse education centre at Health and Social clinical practice as safe and competent practitioners.

The head of nursing and midwifery education at Health and Social Services, Julie Mesny, said: “The sessions were aimed

at Islanders who are either already registered nurses, or whose registration has lapsed, but who have not practised nursing recently, with the areas of specialism being general adult nursing and mental health.”

Leading up to the open sessions, more than 30 potential applicants contacted the Education Centre for details of the events, and 21 people in total attended one of the two sessions.

Interested candidates had to provide evidence of a current or prior registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.”

Anyone interested in finding out more who could not attend the open sessions, should contact Jenny Child at Health and Social Services on 442087 or via email at j.child@gov.je, or Workforce Planning Manager Honor Blain at h.blain@ health.gov.je or 442675.

NatWest introduces popular emergency cash initiative in Jersey

N a t W e s t customers in Jersey will now have access to an ‘Emergency Cash’ facility that will assist them if their bank cards are lost or stolen.

Mrs Mesny said: “17 of those who enquired are all keen to review

their registration status. The majority of the potential candidates were keen to apply for the programme starting in May 2012, with a couple interested in a later cohort, indicating the need for a future programme. We were very pleased to have such interest, and a few of the people who attended the sessions or made contact with us said they were very pleased to have this opportunity, as they have been thinking about going back to nursing, and feel this is an ideal opportunity.

“Seven people who attended still had a current registration with the NMC, and wanted to find out how to gain some hospital experience and a professional update. Through a support programme, we hope to enable this to happen through the bank nurse structure. One attendee wanted to explore the opportunities of a mental health qualification and one person wanted to find out how to train as an adult nurse.”

Application packs will now be sent out for those who wish to apply for the May 2012 cohort, and potential candidates will be interviewed in January 2012.

Mrs Mesny added: “We feel that we certainly have the interest to

run a cohort of return to practice students in May 2012.”

Emergency Cash, which has proved a valuable service for UK customers, was launched in Jersey on Wednesday 7th December 2011.

When customers report their card lost or stolen they can then call a 24 hour number direct to the bank and will be issued with a six digit emergency cash security code which can be used at any RBS Group ATMs across the UK, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and Gibraltar. Telephone and online banking customers will be able to withdraw up to £300 free of charge within three hours of calling NatWest. Customers not registered can withdraw up to £40.

Tache’ in order to raise awareness of the month long drive to raise funds for men’s health initiatives.

“As part of our Customer Promises, NatWest is committed to listening to feedback from customers and acting on it to improve their overall experience. From speaking to customers we understand how frustrating it can be when cards are lost or stolen and the Emergency Cash facility aims to take the pressure off customers should this happen to them. Over 700,000 customers in the UK have benefitted from Emergency Cash since it was launched and we are pleased to extend this facility to local customers.”

As well as donating money, Mange Tout teamed up with other local businesses to encourage fundraising. Jerseybased wholesaler Wilkinsons and sister company Pack and Wrap managed to raise £6200 between them, whilst Hettich Jewellers raised £900.

The service is available over the telephone and customers can call 01534 620050 if they need to use the service. Emergency cash is only available in multiples of £20 so customers need to have minimum available funds of £20 to use the service.

“The success of Movember inspired us to continue our fundraising into December. In the New Year, we will launch our ‘bag returns’ initiative which will help the Teenage Cancer Trust throughout 2012,” said Andrew Hosegood of Mange Tout.

“Our real success in Movember wasn’t just raising the money ourselves but also working with and encouraging other companies to make the impact even greater. By teaming up with Wilkinson’s, Pack and Wrap, and Hettich, we’ve been able to raise nearly £9000 between us, which is enough money to make a real difference.”

Mange Tout continues fundraising drive after Airport successful Movember works Following a successful Movember, during which Mange Tout raised £1,750 for men’s health charities through the sale of a special Movember sandwich as well as sales of cappuccinos and lattes, Mange Tout has decided to continue its fundraising initiatives into December and beyond.

Customers at Mange Tout will support the Teenage Cancer Trust throughout the last month of the year whenever they buy a slice of chilli corn bread or soda bread to accompany their soup.

The tasty breads are freshly made every day at Mange Tout to Abbie Hosegood of Mange Tout’s own recipe. The fresh food outlet will donate 10 pence to the Trust for every slice sold. In addition to selling the bread in store, Mange Tout is encouraging people to try baking for themselves by publishing the recipes on their Facebook page, Mange Tout Jersey.

resurfacing

On Wednesday 4th January 2012, resurfacing works started on the airport roads and will continue until May. The roads, including Avenue de la Reine Elizabeth II and two thirds of Avenue de la Commune are in great need of repair.

The majority of the route was last resurfaced 23 years ago and since then parts of the road have been dug up numerous times for utility services. The poor condition of the surface was emphasised last year when following a heavy frost, a large number of potholes appeared in the road overnight.

Work will be carried out at night-time from 7.30pm to 2am so that airline passengers are not delayed. For some sections where there are no houses in close proximity, the working hours may be extended to 4am. The road will be closed in short sections to all through traffic during these hours, starting from the Beaumont Hill end. A diversion will be in operation along le Mont au Roux, la Rue des Mans and la Rue du Pont Marquet.

A webpage informing members of the public about the project is currently being developed and will be available from the start of the works. This will also provide updates on traffic management. Members of the public are invited to attend a public exhibition on the scheme from noon until 10pm on Wednesday, 14 December 2011 at the Jersey Aeroclub. Those people interested in attending, should contact Transport and Technical Services on 445509.

The scheme, which will cost about £750,000, extends for the full length of Avenue de la Reine Elizabeth II, from the roundabout at the top of Beaumont Hill to the airport roundabout. It continues along Avenue de la Commune from the airport roundabout to 100m west of the junction with le Clos Saut Falluet.

The works will comprise: • Resurfacing, strengthening and reshaping of the carriageway • Localised resurfacing of the footways • Introduction of a footway along the eastbound carriageway near Beaumont Hill • Installation of two new pedestrian refuges, one near the junction with Rue des Vignes and the other west of Lakeside Residential Home • Replacement of two sections of road safety barriers • Improvement of the streetlighting at Beaumont Hill by replacing the lamps and introducing a new column.

Major stakeholders have been consulted with respect to the works, including the emergency services and Jersey Airport.

All businesses along the route will remain open as usual.

Although Transport and Technical Services and the contractor, Le Sech (Asphalt) Ltd, will be doing their utmost to minimise disruption, these essential highways maintenance works will cause some delays to motorists and disturbance to householders, adding; “We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.”

Director of Education Mario Lundy said: “I am really pleased

that we have been able to appoint Sam to this post. He will bring a broad range of experience to the job as well as a real commitment to Springfield and its community.”

Rue du Presbytere resurfacing works

Transport and Technical Services (TTS) will be resurfacing Rue du Presbytere in Trinity from Monday 12 December for approximately ten days.

The road and sections of Rue de la Croix will be closed for the duration of the works. Drivers will be diverted along Rue au Sellier and Rue es Picots. Signs will direct members of the public to the Parish Hall from Rue es Picots or Rue de la Croix.

The road surface is currently very uneven and in poor condition, having been dug up numerous times for utility services and last resurfaced 31 years ago. The works will involve strengthening sections of the existing carriageway and resurfacing the full width. Pallot Tarmac Ltd will undertake the £60,000 project on behalf of TTS. TTS apologises in advance for any disruption that these essential maintenance works might cause.

New head for Springfield School

Sam Cooper, the deputy head of Springfield School, has been appointed head teacher with effect from January 2012.

Mr Cooper, who is currently on secondment at Samares School, will take over from Iain George, who is moving to Janvrin primary in the new year.

Mr Cooper has taught in a number of primary schools across the Island over the past 18 years and has recently led the development of the online Virtual Learning Environment in all Jersey’s primary schools.

He said: “I am absolutely delighted to have been appointed as

the new head teacher of such a brilliant school.

“As I take up my first headship, I am committed to making sure that the children’s learning is enhanced by accessing as many real-life experiences as possible. Wherever we can, we will look to involve the children’s families in their learning and provide support for our busy working parents.

work with businesses to identify projects which best match their Corporate and Social Responsibility (CSR) objectives.

In particular many businesses f ind it diff icult to provide funding to individuals with identif ied potential due to the cross section of applications. We are developing a structured application process and links with UK entities which we hope will greatly assist these people.”

Shane Hollywood at Bedell said “We were keen to provide

funding to the One Foundation as we will be helping a cross section of clubs and associations within the Island community. The principal objectives of the Foundation are suited to our CSR policy and we look forward to working together in the future.”

The council of members for the One Foundation consists of:, Kevin Lemasney – Chairman of the One Foundation, Ben Cooke - CEO Dominion Fiduciary Services Limited, Derek De La Haye – Education, Sport and Culture, Rod McLoughlin – Art and Culture, Steve Jacobs – Chairman of the Island Games Committee. All of these members are actively involved in the local community and collectively identified the need for a charitable foundation which would benefit education, sport and culture in Jersey.

Charity seeks English teachers for short Indonesian school placements

Each teacher will be required to work for two or three months at the Bukit Lawang English School in Sumatra, Indonesia.

The next placement begins in January 2012 and further trips will take place throughout the year.

Rebecca Coley, trustee of the Bukit Lawang Trust, said:

“The placements are a great opportunity for teachers from the Channel Islands to work within a community affected by natural disaster such as floods, tsunami and earthquakes. Not only is this a wonderful cultural experience but it is also a chance to make life-long friends.”

The Bukit Lawang charitable Trust focuses on health, education and sanitation. The English school in Sumatra, which is run by the Bukit Lawang Trust, sees over 70 children a day and all the lessons are free.

Madeleine Smart from Jersey was part of the scheme last year. With the help of a local resident she set up another set of English lessons in a neighbouring village, alongside her usual teaching group.

“The main group were teenagers studying for their exams. It was eye-opening to work with the young people who had lived through the adversity Bukit Lawang had faced in previous years. It was great to see them working so hard for their futures and be able to help them towards their goals.

“In my free time I trekked and camped in the jungle, saw orangutans in one of the few remaining places they still exist in the wild, bathed elephants in Tangkahan and experienced local weddings. I can only sing praise for Bukit Lawang and would go back in a heartbeat,” she said.

The placements will involve teaching three lessons a week to children aged between six and 16 and at least three smaller classes to older children who are hoping to go to university.

Hayley de Putron said: “This charity is doing a fantastic

amount of work in this island which is still recovering from the devastating effects of the 2004 tsunami and other natural disasters. The opportunity this will give some young Channel Island teachers is fantastic.”

The Bukit Lawang Trust is offering qualified English teachers from the Channel Islands a chance to work in a Sumatran school for up to three months for what promises to be a life changing experience.

Thanks to support from De Putron Fund Management, The Bukit Lawang Trust (a Jersey registered charity) will recruit up to six English teachers who need to have Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL), Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) or an equivalent qualification.

Each teacher will receive up to £1,000 from De Putron Fund Management to go towards travel and vaccination costs and on arrival they will be given comfortable private accommodation at the community centre base together with free meals throughout their placement.

Jersey Trust Company Appoints New Director

one of the leading global accountancy firms. He previously worked for an in-house fiduciary company owned by a French fund and asset management business.

JTC’s Group Director Steve Burnett, who has responsibility for the Luxembourg office, commented on the appointment:

“Since our move to Luxembourg 18 months ago, demand for our services has been consistently strong from both existing clients and new enquiries and I am delighted that someone of Renaud’s professional calibre has joined us to further strengthen the team.”

JTC Luxembourg provides fund administration, corporate administration and domiciliation services to a global network of new and existing clients in the renewable energy, real estate, film finance and private equity sectors.

A Jersey-headquartered trust company has appointed a new director in its offices in Luxembourg.

The appointment of Renaud Labye by Jersey Trust Company ( JTC) reflects the continued expansion of the group’s business in Luxembourg. JTC also operates in Jersey, Guernsey, Switzerland, London, Glasgow and the British Virgin Islands.

JTC was formed in 1987 and is a leading independent provider of private client, corporate, fund administration and employee benefit services. The company’s head office is based in Jersey with additional operations in a further five jurisdictions worldwide.

Fortuna-Euronics

The Luxembourg office, which opened in May 2010, offers the group’s clients and intermediaries more flexibility in international structuring and enhanced access to other services and, as a result, has witnessed notable growth in activity.

Mr Labye, who comes from Belgium, holds qualifications in finance and economics and has extensive experience in the development and operation of Luxembourg private wealth vehicles and the establishment of international structures for private and corporate clients. He has particular expertise in real estate and Sharia-compliant structures and now leads the internal and client administration and accounting activities of JTC Luxembourg.

energy, electrical recycling, facilities services and satellite broadband. With over 2,500 geographically dispersed engineers, the company covers all of Great Britain. AVC is a national company delivering service at a local level.

AVC utilise new and emerging technologies combined with their extensive experience and entrepreneurial spirit to develop solutions that deliver commercial, marketing and sustainability value for their customers. The company pioneered technologies such as Wireless, 2-Way Broadband and renewable energies well before others recognised their value.

The latest addition to AVC’s portfolio is Smarthome at Fortuna-Euronics.

“This is an stimulating and challenging opportunity for us,” says John Dingle whose family founded Fortuna in the heart of St Helier in 1954. “Working with AVC as Smarthome will allow us to deliver the most up-to-date technology to local consumers, businesses, utilities and States departments at a level of technological expertise not previously available in the Island. The move coincides with the termination of our lease at de Gruchy’s and this will allow us to redeploy our staff into new developing areas.”

The existing Fortuna-Euronics retail outlets in Halkett Place and Minden Street are unaffected by this significant development and will continue to trade in a wide and expanding range of consumer electronics and white goods as at present.

Michael Every, CEO of AVC Group says, “We are delighted

to be working with John and his team and impressed with how they have delivered quality products and service to the Island. We are excited about the opportunity and working on our strategy to bring this technology to a wider audience in the Britain and to emerging European markets.”

Wherever AVC operates, their brand promise is the same – take the best technology available, make it as simple as possible, and deliver it efficiently. This ethos is the key to AVC’s long lasting relationships with customers such as Sky, Tesco, M&S, IKEA, RBS, Lloyd’s Bank, CES, IBM and the MOD. This ethos will now be available in Jersey from the combined resources of Fortuna-Euronics and AVC Smarthome.

Tax information exchange agreement signed with Japan

Jersey and Japan signed a tax information exchange agreement (TIEA) at the Japanese Embassy in London 2nd December 2011. The agreement was signed by Chief Minister, Senator Ian Gorst, and the Japanese Ambassador, His Excellency Mr Keiichi Hayashi.

Senator Gorst said: “The signing of this agreement is of

great importance. It will help to further strengthen existing business relationships and enhance those relationships to the benef it of both Jersey and Japan.

“Jersey and Japan, as two of the four Vice-Chairs of the Peer Review Group of the Global Forum on Transparency and Information Exchange for Tax Purposes, are joined together in their commitment to the furthering of compliance with the global standards.

“Jersey attaches great importance to establishing a good relationship with the G20 and has now signed tax agreements with 14 of the 19 G20 countries, and has completed negotiations with a further three. This relationship builds upon the independent assessments of Jersey by the International Monetary Fund, the Financial Stability Board and the OECD Global Forum, all of which have conf irmed Jersey’s high level of compliance with international standards for anti-money laundering, f inancial regulation and tax transparency/information exchange.”

The tax information exchange and other provisions in the agreement will come into force once the parties have completed their respective domestic procedures.

the funds sector, which recorded 10.5% year on year growth in the net asset value of funds being administered in Jersey to stand at £197.6bn. That figure does not include funds established under the Unregulated Funds Regime, of which there were 147 by the end of the period – an 8% increase on the previous quarter.

Bank deposits also showed a quarterly increase, with deposits originating from the Far East and Middle East remaining impressive, standing at £6.8bn and £20.3bn. respectively, once again reflecting the value of ongoing promotional activity in Hong Kong, Greater China and the Gulf region.

That the total number of companies registered in Jersey grew to its highest level in the past 12 months was also a positive indicator of the health of the industry.

The statistics, collated and prepared by the Jersey Financial Services Commission, are for the three month period ending 30th September 2011. The headline figures are as follows: • •

• • •

Banking deposits increased by £2.3bn (1.4%) during the third quarter of 2011 from £165bn to £167.3bn.

The Net Asset Value of funds under administration increased by £1bn (0.5%) from £196.6bn to £197.6bn during the third quarter of 2011. The total number of regulated funds increased by 42 from 1,323 to 1,365 over this period.

The total number of unregulated funds increased by 11 (8%) to 147 during the third quarter of 2011.

The value of funds under investment management decreased by £1.4bn (6.3%) compared to the previous quarter from £22.2bn to £20.8bn.

The total number of live companies on the register increased by 78 from 33,116 to 33,194 during the third quarter of 2011.

- the FTSE 100 index decreased by more than 15% over the same period.

“Increasingly, Jersey is a key jurisdiction for corporate listings.

Our members are receiving enquiries from many Indian and Chinese businesses to set up capital raising structures using Jersey companies. This is supported by the total number of live companies in Jersey increasing for a fourth consecutive quarter.’’

Nigel Strachan, Chairman of the Jersey Funds Association, added: “That the funds sector in Jersey continues to perform

well in difficult conditions, recording an increase in the value of funds under administration for the fifth consecutive quarter, will give investors confidence in Jersey. It’s also pleasing that the alternative asset classes remain strong, with the value of Private Equity, Venture Capital and Real Estate funds being administered in Jersey all showing increases on the previous quarter.”

Geoff Cook commented: “Jersey’s finance industry

Encouraging news was also received on the banking front with the announcement that Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank has successfully applied to operate in Jersey.

“We are particularly encouraged by the increase in the total number of Jersey funds, especially against a backdrop of challenging fundraising conditions. A total of 53 new funds were added to the total funds stocks during the period – the best quarterly performance since September 2010. Whilst a 6.3% decrease in the net asset value of funds under investment management was recorded, this performance is still relatively good when benchmarked against key financial market indices

“Carey Olsen was very pleased to be able to showcase such a beautiful piece of local art to our clients and staff to raise money for Jersey Hospice Care. Everyone was keen to take a closer look at the bauble which added to the festive theme of the event.

“The bauble is absolutely stunning and it will make a fabulous addition to someone’s Christmas tree.”

Julia Williams, Manager of Jersey Goldsmiths who brought the bauble along added: “La Sfera has been hand made in Jersey from start to finish and is a fine example of the craftsmanship in Jersey. We are delighted to be able to show her to so many people and contribute to the festive spirit”.

Active Group Malta Seminar

seminar was arranged by Active Malta in collaboration with the Malta Financial Services Authority and was based at the MFSA Conference Centre in Attard.

Over 200 delegates attended the seminar, which was repeated over two sessions due to high demand. The main speaker was Brian Horsepool, Partner and Director of Active Group, who covered the areas of director’s responsibilities, regulators’ expectations, corporate governance and various case studies, including where it can go wrong. Mr Horsepool was supported by representatives of two local law firms, Ganado & Associates and Mamo TCV, who spoke on the Malta Law Code, the Role of Compliance, and Solvency II. Mr Horsepool was also invited to speak on the same theme to a group from the Financial Services Division of the Malta Chamber of Commerce.

Claire Gauci, Active’s director based in Malta, organised the seminar and was grateful to the MFSA for their assistance and support in staging this seminar, which is the first of a series of workshops to be arranged by Active in the New Year on further topics relevant to the Malta financial industry.

The Active Group is an independent group headquartered in Guernsey providing business support services and regulatory consultancy across the range of financial services businesses.

Active employs some 50 staff across its offices based in Guernsey, Jersey, Malta, Isle of Man and Cayman Islands.

Fibre optic technology provides a gateway to a global online marketplace which will enable Jersey businesses to compete effectively.

Money & Investments Roundup Compiled by Marcus Quinn, news@jerseyweekly.com

James McKeigue, Money Week Across the river from the City

The world’s troubles aren’t limited to the West. Even China has its problems – and they’re getting bigger.

We’ve already noted that this country “is no longer a one-way bet”. “China’s central bank has had to intervene in the currency markets. That’s not to keep the renminbi weak against the dollar - but to prop it up.

So what’s got investors spooked about the world’s future economic superpower?”

A large part of the blame lies with China’s property market. As we in the West know only too well, property bubbles can be disastrous for an economy. The good news for China is that its attempts to pop its own property bubble appear to be working.

The trouble is that’s always painful. And the amount of damage caused depends on how out of whack you allowed prices to become in the first place.

Property sales in November are down 36% on last year, says the country’s top real estate developer. And lower demand for property means developers won’t have the cash to fund new projects.

As many as 80% of Chinese firms are complaining that developers are behind on payments. That’s hurting companies further down the chain. If land prices fall, the Chinese banking system will be exposed to significant bad debts. A mere slowdown in the flow of new credit could have a serious impact on China’s economy.

How will this play out? One casualty could

be Australia, one of the major countries geared up to service China’s commodity demand. And that means the Aussie dollar could drop. ‘Shorting’ – ie selling – the Australian dollar against the US dollar “could be one of the simplest ways to profit from a China slowdown”.

Empty Homes The scandal of empty homes in Britain can be solved by a simple change in the law... use it or lose it!.

In the interest of a fairer society and equal opportunity for all, we need a law which states that you cannot own a property you don’t actually use. Such a law should apply to individuals and companies as well as to governments.

Unused properties would have to be put up for auction within six months of becoming unoccupied. This would result in lower property prices, wider property ownership, less homelessness, greater numbers of new business start-ups, lower business costs, and the economy moving towards its greater potential. The parasitic landlord class would be gradually phased out.

On the other hand it could be seen as, ‘stealing peoples’ houses in the name of fairness? How about we sacrifice a couple of sacred cows instead? These are real things we could do which will reduce demand and increase supply of housing, and take us closer to a free market.

House prices are deliberately kept high through planning regulations. Website comments suggested; cut the planning departments. Green belts have to go they’re squeezing prices higher. inflationlinked land tax per square metre, no matter the usage. Cut rail subsidies completely.

Why should London bankers have their commutes subsidised? And no council tax rebates for empty houses.

Stock Market Rise It was much quieter in stock markets this week – the FTSE has been trading sideways. And most investors’ eyes have been on Europe, as the European Central Bank (ECB) cut its benchmark interest rate by 0.5% on Thursday.

But don’t get too excited that the Eurozone crisis is about to be ‘sorted’, stock up on companies that relish a recession.

To save you the bother of scrolling through endless pages of pundits opinions on the Eurozone, here’s all you really need to know about the latest latest last-ditch summit to save Europe. All the talk of treaty rewrites is irrelevant.

It’s all very well saying that countries need to be held to stricter rules, but that doesn’t do anything to get them out of the mess they are in now. Until the European Central Bank prints money to buy the region’s dodgy debt, the crisis won’t hit a turning point. Mario Draghi, head of the ECB, has made it clear he’s still not keen to do that.

So almost regardless of what happens over the next few days, the Eurozone crisis seems likely to rumble on and on. That’s bad news for Europe, of course. But it’s not great for us here in the UK and Jersey either.

Britain is hardly in a good enough condition to cope with any more bad news.

Both households and our government are hugely weighed down by too much borrowing.

While interest rates are very low, as they are now, that may not seem to be an over-large problem. But if debt-servicing costs start to climb, borrowing levels will become a much bigger issue here.

Readers’ Emails Compiled by Jason Bourgeois, letters@jerseyweekly.com

My Money’s Worth Hi Jersey Weekly, I’m just writing this short letter to express my admiration towards the nobility of your new business model.

It must have been a very difficult and daunting move for you to begin charging for what had been a free product for so long.

Personally I believe that you have gone about it in the best way possible. The fact that a percentage of all your sales goes to a charity alone is a highly respectable act.

Then coupled with that the fact that you try to include a different charity each week is very impressive. Not only that but you have already included some of the smaller local charities too and not just the big name brands.

I’d like to end by saying I look forward to seeing the whos, whats and whys of future issues and will continue to BUY your magazine whenever I can. (just don’t go raising the price too soon)

Martin De La Noe, St Helier

Christmas Tree-oubles I don’t know how the rest of the Island feels, perhaps its just my senior years and love for tradition getting in the way I have always enjoyed La Fete Du Noue each year and taking my grandchildren to see the parades and the Christmas Markets each year is always a pleasure. They especially get a ‘kick’ out of being there for the ‘switching on’ of the lights around town.

You can imagine my disappointment though when I took them to the old Weighbridge for this year’s festivities to see THAT TREE, if you can even call it a tree.

I don’t know if anyone else has seen it but it barely even has branches or any kind of resemblance to what a Christmas tree should look like.

The tree down there this year looks more like a permanent extension of the new Royal Yacht Hotel and less a piece of Christmas Tradition.

A Christmas Tree should be full of tinsel and baubles with lights sparkling to set it off and NOT whatever is at the Weighbridge today.

I hate to sound so miserable at an otherwise festive time of year but to see a pyramid of fluorescent balls instead of the wonderful green branches associated with a PINE TREE is really disappointing to me.

I’m all for technology moving forward and making our lives easier, Not that I understand a lot of it, but Christmas is Christmas and shouldn’t be altered for any reason.

Here’s hoping that next year we see a return to form for Jersey.

I still remember the trees past in Broad Street and The Parade.

Lets see something like that again next year!.

How do we persuade our kids to study ‘for Jersey’?

In the last few weeks your magazine has covered the move towards ICT becoming the primary industry in Jersey. This is all well and good, and obviously the States agree as they seem to be largely funding the changes needed.

I wonder though, how much is being done in the schools to make sure our offspring are able to secure work in this industry?

Whilst my own kids are way ahead of me when it comes to the internet and the use of iPads and such, when it comes to the technical end of these devices - as opposed to the user interface - I wonder how teachers are prepared to teach kids how to operate the far less interesting ‘side’ of the internet.

Will it require more Maths? Will the technology advance so fast that teachers need to be constantly ahead? It seems so dazzlingly fast - within a year my ‘latest mobile device’ is outdated, and I’m left learning a whole new operating system.

How do get the kids interested in the first place? When most of the generation who ended up working in finance walked into a careers office whilst in school, I imagine not many of them expressed an interest in finance. I wonder how many will say ‘ICT!’ nowadays.

The States may need to re-think education in line with their rethink of Jersey’s main economy.

Byrne My Eyes I hope it’s ok that I use your letters section as a forum for me to write a short review of Ed Byrne’s show this Wednesday. I suppose if I’ve read as far as here in your printed edition I can assume it is!

First of all I would like to point out that I had not seen any posters or anything for this show around town I simply found it in your wonderful diary section that you put out each week (keep that in forever please) I had not seen much of Ed Byrne’s standup before and I must say what a wonderful ‘crowd pleaser’ he really really is.

He had the audience in stitches from start to finish and responded eloquently (for lack of a better term) to the few hecklers who thought right to join in with the fun.

My wife and I haven’t had such a good night out for a long time and look forward to seeing what further shows this new look Opera House puts out into the new year.

We’re actually now after eating at the new restaurant there considering it as a haunt for meals alone but we’re also considering going to a panto this year for the first time since we were quite young.

My compliments to whoever it was that came up with the wonderful ideas and menu for the new cafe/ bar/restaurant (whichever they prefer)

“CRUELTY TO CHILDREN MUST STOP, FULL STOP” The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) is a UK based charity, that campaigns for the rights of children, and works in all areas of child protection.

Here in Jersey, the NSPCC operate in partnership with the Education, Sports and Culture, Health and Social Services and Family Nursing and Home Care departments of the States, as well as the Jersey Childcare Trust.

Between them, they manage the ‘Jersey Pathways Project’, based at Les Squez School. This scheme gives families with pre-school children in the Jersey access to free play facilities and services and provides advice to help parents bring up their children.

They offer support to new parents, young or otherwise, who may be struggling with the changes in lifestyle and responsibility that comes with having children; “Children are most vulnerable below the age of one and not all parents find looking after children of that age simple.”

“Perhaps because of mental health, such as post natal depression, they are unable to provide the kind of care that a child needs.”

They also work with single parents, and run a ‘Dads and Little’uns Club’ - open to male carers from across the Island. This along with ‘Play and Stay’ sessions, lends support - from both the volunteer staff, and other parents in the same situation - to parents who may be feeling the pressure.

“Children are most vulnerable below the age of one and not all parents find looking after children of that age simple.”

Other services include a ‘Bumps & Babes’ pregnancy support drop-in group - until babies are three months old. Also, a ‘Baby-grow’ drop-in group for 0 - 1 year olds, another ‘Play & Stay’ drop-in group for 0 – 4 year olds, and a special drop-in group ‘Grandparents & Tots’ for grandparents caring for their grandchildren during the daytimes.

From January 2012 at First Tower Primary School, they will be delivering ‘Bumps & Babes’ and ‘Baby-grow’ drop-in groups.

These drop-in groups provide a variety of play opportunities and new experiences for babies and children, and gives time for parents and carers to engage, enjoy and interact with their children through fun play and socialisation.

The NSPCC and Jersey Child Protection Committee (JCPC) have also joined forces to encourage Island residents to help protect local children;

Should you wish to donate, volunteer or otherwise make contact with the charity in less urgent circumstances, please speak to; Fund raising committee Mrs Heidi Lewis, telephone 860781 Manager - Nola Hopkins, telephone 738143 Ten percent of the 85p that you paid for this issue of Jersey Weekly will be donated to the NSPCC.

“Keeping children safe is everyone’s responsibility, and people working or volunteering in their local community are well placed to sound the alarm if they suspect a child is at risk. Parents, grandparents and carers are also being urged to report any concerns that they may have about a child or young person.”

The NSPCC Helpline - 0808 800 5000 - is a vital first point of contact for anyone with concerns about a child. It’s free, and open 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Callers don’t have to give their name if they’d prefer to remain anonymous. Alternatively, from 13th July 2011, they can send text messages to the designated text number - 07786 20000.

PLEA FOR FIVE YEAR BAN ON TAX INCREASES

The Jersey Chamber of Commerce has made a plea to the States of Jersey to introduce a ban on tax rises in order to help local businesses recover from economic uncertainty.

Jersey Weekly takes a look at The Jersey Chamber of Commerce and the recent proposal.

The Jersey Chamber of Commerce has made a plea to the States of Jersey to introduce a ban on tax rises in order to help local businesses recover from economic uncertainty. Jersey Weekly takes a look at The Jersey Chamber of Commerce and the recent proposal.

THE JERSEY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE The Chamber of Commerce is the largest employer representative body in the Island. It consists of members from all business sectors who are dedicated to the promotion of trade, commerce and the general prosperity of Jersey. The Chamber is completely self-funded by its membership, independent from the government and able to express an independent view.

The Jersey Chamber of Commerce was formed two hundred and forty years ago when its members were principally ship owners. Now there is a different and much wider range of businesses amongst over 500 members. With membership open to a wide range of organisations and individuals, there is an increasing realisation of the wide range of benefits for those in every sector of the business community.

Chamber pursues matters on behalf of its membership at a high level with local Government and all new or proposed legislation is monitored to ensure that members’ interests are represented. They adopt a proactive stance on key issues, providing recommendations to senior politicians and States’ departments in a pragmatic and constructive way.

THE PROPOSAL A proposal has been issued for the government to consider stopping tax increases for local businesses for the next five years. One thing that needs to be made clear is that this is a freeze on current taxes and not a ban on taxes. Therefore this shouldn’t effect public services The warning signs are everywhere. It is time to take definitive action.

But, what is there to do? We hear about the effects of the economic

recession every day on the news. It’s not just small businesses who are looking to survive either bigger companies are also facing testing times. With this economic uncertainty looming over the community and businesses in Jersey the President of the Chamber, David Warr recently announced that it was essential to take action to help businesses survive the poor trading conditions that will be around for years ahead. The suggestion being proposed to the States is to put a five year ban on tax increases to help businesses recover and prosper.

HOW WILL THIS BENEFIT THE ECONOMY? Small business owners need to take money out of the business to survive, this money then gets taxed. The owners then spend the rest of this money to live and to buy the things they want.

If they do not use the money it is re-invested back into the economy through them putting it back into their business.

That could be in many different forms for example, rejuvenating the business, giving work to tradesmen, expanding the business offering more services increasing competition and providing further employment opportunities.

Of course there has been much debate on this proposal and uncertainty over how it will work exactly. However the Jersey Chamber of Commerce are taking a commonsense approach to helping businesses in the current economic environment.

‘JÈRRIAIS’

- A LANGUAGE IN PERIL?

Is Jersey’s ‘native tongue’ in danger of extinction?

On December 7th, the University of Cambridge issued a lengthy press release, detailing ‘the demise’ of Norman French in the Channel Islands. In it, ‘language death and dialectology’ expert Mari Jones detailed the ‘linguistic gulf ’ that has opened up as the Duchy of Normandy was relegated to the history books, and Britain became the primary influence on Jersey’s culture, identity and of course, language.

Although you may have forgotten much of your school history lessons, if you are asked “what happened in 1066?”, odds on, you will remember this was the year of ‘The Battle of Hastings’. This was the last successful foreign invasion of British soil, and placed Britain squarely under the rule of ‘The Normans’.

However, the spirit of all things Jersey has always been defined as ‘irrepressible’, and L’Office du Jèrriais - part of the Education, Sports and Culture department - work tirelessly to ensure that the language is kept alive...

Here in the Channel Islands, we are been culturally and historically considered part of Normandy, mainly due to geographical location - we are right on the doorstep. It stands to reason that the native language, historically, would also be Norman - and it was, for over a thousand years. Despite our tenuous political links to Great Britain since 1204, most of Jersey’s population remained ‘Francophone’ - speaking a local dialect of Norman-French until well into the late 19th Century.

This rendered ‘Norman’ the official language of all official British Government business from that day on. You may be surprised to find out that several Norman phrases are still used in British Parliament to this day, as a result.

There are three Channel Island dialects of Norman still in existence, Jèrriais (Jersey), Guernésiais (Guernsey) and Sercquais (Sark).

Auregnais (Alderney’s dialect) apparently slipped into the cultural abyss in the mid 20th Century, and according to the recent Cambridge study, Sark’s Sercuais dialect may plunge after it, with surveys showing only twenty (older) people in the six-hundred strong population have any working knowledge of it.

Jersey’s Jèrriais dialect however, has a vociferous local guardian in the form of ‘L’Office du Jèrriais’. The organisation - part of the Education, Sports and Culture Department of the States - has a very modern approach to ensuring that Jèrriais remains in the public consciousness.

They are fully internet functional! They have a blog; (officedujerriais. blogspot.com), a website; (www.jerriais.org.je), twitter account (twitter. com/le_jerriais) and even a youtube channel; (...user/officedujerriais).

This multimedia approach, along with the way the web presence is managed, actually helps teach pronunciations and history at once, and is a master-stroke given the popularity of mobile devices and the internet.

FEATURES

L’Office du Jèrriais has introduced lessons in the language back into schools, and is working hard to foster a positive link between language and identity amongst young Islanders. They put it this way; “Jèrriais is a language in which Jersey people have exchanged poetry, stories, scandals, beliefs and business. It is a language of lullabies and laughs, satire and swearwords, and so much Jersey history is recorded only in Jèrriais.”

It’s estimated, from various survey results, that there are currently 2,874 Jèrriais speakers in Jersey, 3.2% of the population. None of these, however, speak it as a first language.

Bilingualism is common here, and has been for centuries. In the heyday of the Atlantic Cod Trade - where many a Jerseyman found fortune the neutrality of Jersey ships allowed them to work in French and British waters. On the docks, the men could converse - and thus trade with French or English merchants freely, and often used Norman dialects as a ‘secret code’ amongst themselves.

The phrase ‘contact phenomena’ describes the presence of two languages in an area, and how words and patterns/orders from one creep into the other over time. According to the Cambridge study, Jersey resisted this phenomena (an oddity) and Jèrriais speakers kept their language free of English words.

This actually may have contributed to it’s downfall, as instead of integrating and making Jèrriais words familiar to English speakers, it stayed separate. The WW2 evacuation of children from Jersey to various parts of the UK cut a significant portion of that generation off from Jèrriais in their formative years of speech. On return, they had mostly forgotten their native tongue and used English. This, combined with the ‘oil and water’ nature of the two languages traditionally, began it’s downturn in popularity and use.

Sir Robert Pipon Marett: He took a philological interest in Jèrriais and through his prestige did much to standardise Jèrriais orthography on the pattern of French orthography

It would be a shame for Jersey to lose it’s own language, and we are lucky that there is a group committed to it’s continuation, especially in the face of the UK study hailing “the impending extinction of Norman”.

The UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger shows that 230 languages reached extinction in the last sixty years.

Let’s hope L’Office du Jèrriais are successful, and Jèrriais, or the languages of any more of our sister Channel Islands, aren’t added to that list any time soon.

NEW PLANS FOR ESPLANADE QUARTER DEVELOPMENT

The proposed development of a ‘new financial district’ in St Helier is to go ahead, although not exactly ‘as planned’. The Esplanade Quarter, a project of the States Of Jersey Development Company(SOJDC), was given the green light in a vote by the new States Members on November 6th - despite the request of the Constable of St Helier, Simon Crowcroft, that it be opened to public consultation.

The Constable had previously asserted that if the site be developed at all, it could be better utilised than the SOJDC’s plans for office space and supporting retail outlets.

Words // Rick Jones • Feature Design // Jon Moore

One example of an alternate use for the current 525 space open-air car-park was a new Hospital. The Constable also stated that there was ‘no urgency’ to develop the site, which was functional and not in disrepair ‘as is’.

28

However, the States voted to go ahead, with thirty-seven members for, to four against, albeit with a revised and slightly downscaled version of the plan.

The previous plan by the SOJDC was for 620,000 sq ft of office space, 400 residential units, 100 hotel beds and around 50,000 sq ft of support retail and refreshment franchises.

The new plans reduce the office buildings collective volume by some 155,000 sq ft and allow for a park area and a public square. The plans to sink the road have been shelved, if not scrapped , and a plan to undertake the development in ‘phases’ was rejected by the majority of States Members in a vote.

Issue 111, Friday, 16th December 2011

FEATURES

In a previous interview with Jersey Weekly, the former head of the SOJDC, Steven Izatt, told us that the original plans for the area wouldn’t lose any of the public parking spaces.

With a reduced size, though, there is a concern for the average St Helier resident that some parking will be lost.

The current situation across town is telling. The construction of the new ‘Millennium Town Park’, whilst being a great addition to St Helier, didn’t get the promised underground parking. As such, the amount of cars circling and waiting in Ann St for a space that can be occupied for longer than three hours is verging on the ridiculous.

Some of those working in town either have to move their vehicle every three hours from the short stay car-park to Minden Place multi-story (again three hours), or fight over the ‘all day’ spaces at Ann St. If, as the new plans for the Esplanade Quarter show, the car-park is taken underground, to allow the same amount of parking as the current open air arrangement, there needs to be provision for higher vehicles. Vans and minibuses, and even some MPV type cars are unable to get into multi-story car-parks. These higher vehicles will be displaced, and competition for other spaces leads to frustration and in some cases altercations, in the real world.

It’s clear that the building work, which is to be private sector funded, will boost the Construction Industry at a crucial period. There has been much discussion of whether ‘we’ need any more office spaces in Jersey.

Given the plans to turn Jersey into a World leading ICT centre, the need for new, ‘future proof’ buildings is obvious.

The ‘old’ offices, many of which stand empty in the old town area can then be developed into housing. This will keep the town a busy and vibrant place, and take some ‘population pressure’ off the countryside, of which there is only a limited amount. The redeveloping work to turn these buildings into housing would further re-energise the Construction Industry.

Times are moving, we need to move with them. The results of the voting from the States Members seems to point out that the majority of our Government agrees.

THE NATIONAL TRUST FOR JERSEY - 75TH YEAR DRAWS TO A CLOSE Words // Rick Jones • Feature Design // Jon Moore

2011 was the 75th year of The National Trust for Jersey, and to mark this anniversary, they rather controversially painted ‘The White House’ in St Ouen green. It had the additional purpose of reminding Islanders to think in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way. Now as 2011 draws to a close, they are painting it again... for a ‘white Christmas’.

Jersey Weekly asked The National Trust for Jersey how it feels as to get to this landmark age, and a few other questions, whilst we were at it...

FEATURES

JW The National Trust for Jersey has been active in preserving Jersey’s history and environment since 1936. Obviously technologies and lifestyles have changed enormously over the 75 year period; how has this changed the role of Trust?

Celia Jeune “I believe the way we communicate to our ‘public’ is the most obvious change over the years. We are now more instant in responding to dangers to our environment whether built, natural or aesthetic.”

“The Trust is now recognised as a major protector of the environment and is often invited to comment on proposed plans for change. This makes us, inevitably, more political. We now own more than 2% of the countryside and 20 buildings of all types.

Over the years the Trust’s team has developed enormous expertise which means we are happier to comment on plans via the media in all its forms. We hope to educate our members and Islanders to the needs of the environment for the future benefit to all.”

“We also continue to forge strong links with like minded organisations and individuals within the Island.” - Celia Jeune - President of The National Trust for Jersey

JW How about buildings of historic importance? How do you find a balance between maintenance and the effects of time on traditional building materials?

Ernie Le Brun “Finding the balance by getting the best people to make things in the traditional way i.e: Lime Plastering and Lime Painting. A lot of old materials are hard to source and apply.” - Ernie Le Brun, Properties Manager.

JW For the 75th Anniversary of the Trust’s work in Jersey, the ‘White House’ in St Ouen - La Caumine a Marie Best - was painted green. It caused rather a lot of comments. Did you expect this, and did it achieve it’s purpose, in making Jersey people discuss and remember environmental issues? Has there been much feedback as the year progressed?

Celia Jeune “We were taken aback at the ferocity of a very few opponents to the ‘green house’ but we quickly realised that most had missed the point that it was a temporary symbol to encourage a more sustainable lifestyle. However, the resulting publicity was welcome as it aired the points more than we could have hoped.”

“Feedback; this has not been specifically assessed yet as the year is not finished. We like to think that the demand for allotments has been fuelled by folk who see the point of ‘growing your own’. Saving water and ways to reduce electricity make even more sense this end of the year than at the beginning of the campaign. We hope that designers/ architects are more alert to the need to help people live sustainably by providing rainbutts, space for a compost heap/recycling etc.” - Celia Jeune

JW If urging Islanders top be mindful of the environment, history and how they can ensure that future generations enjoy an Island as beautiful as we do currently, what measures can they put in place straight away?

Celia Jeune “We would like to see all those good people who stood in a ‘LINE IN THE SAND’ (over 7,000) to take the next step and help us to save Plemont Headland by joining the National Trust for Jersey or by sending us a donation to the ‘Coastline Campaign’ in order that land can be purchased and saved from future development along the coast; (The Trust Office,The Elms, Cheve Rue, St Mary JE3 3EN.)” “Everyone is welcome to do the same even if they were not in St Ouen’s Bay in October 2009!” - Celia Jeune

JW I’m sure this question has been asked, but is the ‘white house’ destined to stay white from now on? Are there any plans for thought inspiring statements in any other Heritage areas or buildings?

We wish them all the best, and should you require any more information, or wish to help in any way, please visit their website; www.nationaltrustforjersey.org.je

Celia Jeune “The painters are transforming the Green House back to White to be ready next week (weather permitting!).”

“As and when, it is possible that we will hang a banner or use paint on another building if we need to communicate a need or illustrate a danger but at the moment we have no such plans.” - Celia Jeune

Redlist Report - Jersey’s Bird Populations in the 21st Century

Words // Rick Jones • Feature Design // Jon Moore

BIRDS, AT LEAST the flight capable ones, have the unique ability amongst warm blooded creatures of coming and going as they please between landmasses. This may seem obvious, but it makes them one of the best indicators of the environment in a given area. If a record is kept of the presence and timing of bird migrations for a given area, it can be a great overall measure of many other factors, as we will explain...

32

IN THE LAST WEEK of November, a sixteen page report on the conservation status of bird populations in Jersey was launched.

So far, the initiative has been a joint effort between Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, The States of Jersey Department of Environment and the Société Jersiaise. The project has taken three months and uses locally gathered data from twenty years, by three other organisations; The Wetlands Trust, British Trust for Ornithology and The Joint Nature Conservation Committee.

Using this data, trends in migration, population and habits over the last two decades have been assessed and recorded. It divides the bird species into categories, and uses established criteria to determine the conservation status.

Like comparative reports from UK and European conservation organisations, Red, Amber and Green are used to denote the level of threat perceived to each type of bird in Jersey.

There are currently thirty-three ‘red-listed’ species - the colour used for the most vulnerable, conservation wise - in Jersey. These include the much loved Puffins, as well as the now rarely seen Cuckoo.

‘Amber’ species are those that have declined markedly but are not yet considered in danger of local extinction. It also includes the likes of the peregrine falcon and sand martin, that are very localised and vulnerable to changes in their small area.

It may seem difficult to believe, but the Herring Gull is listed amber... perhaps due to the methods employed to keep them away from heavily populated or human dining areas. The Tufted Duck is another ‘amber’ species.

‘Green’ listed birds are the least endangered, and populations are flourishing. There are currently fifty-two species considered ‘green listed’.

Blue tits and Wood Pigeons are examples of birds with least concern attached to their proliferation and population.

Dr Glyn Young said:

“Bird monitoring provides one of the most robust and globally recognised methods for measuring changes in the state of biodiversity and the broader environment. This is the first such assessment of Jersey bird populations and the criteria used are intended to ensure that Conservation Status of Jersey’s Birds listings reflect each species’ global and European status as well as that within Jersey.”

John Pinel said: (States Environment Dpt)

“This document provides a powerful tool with which to focus conservation efforts. It can be used for a variety of purposes, not least when justifying sites of special interest but also in considering the future development of the Island.”

Mick Dryden added: (Chairman Société Jersiaise)

“Many sites across the Island are managed specifically to protect birds and other wildlife. Ownership of this land is in many different hands but all work to secure a future for our bird species” The reason bird life is a good indication of the state of a given area’s biodiversity, is that they are transient by nature of being able to fly. As the environment is in essence, based on a food chain structure, a simple act at ‘the bottom’ can influence the whole system.

A rough example would be this year’s dry spell leading to a lack of mosquito larvae - that need pools of stagnant water to develop - and thus less mosquitos in the Island. Whilst this may be welcome to us, migrating birds returning North in Spring - such as Swifts - will typically move on to areas where more rain has fallen, and thus more of these kinds of insects are present.

Swifts, if we are using this example, also predate heavily on ‘flying ants’ later in the Summer, and the lack of mosquitos, leading to a lack of swifts, can lead to an explosion in the appearance of these swarms.

It’s all a delicate balance, and there has to be a start point for assessment. Bird studies provide a handy overview from which to begin looking deeper. It’s actually invaluable, and this new study is a great way for those concerned with the environment in Jersey to begin their own investigations.

Two thousand copies of the report have been published, thanks to generous support from the Channel Islands Cooperative Society, and copies are available free of charge in hard copy or in electronic format from www.durrell.org

‘DIGITAL JERSEY’ - IS IT THE ANSWER?

Words // Rick Jones • Feature Design // Jon Moore

WITH THE ABOLITION of LCVR by the UK Government, the Fulfillment Industry companies operating in Jersey have found themselves at a disadvantage, being on a different land mass. With Play.com opting to leave - sadly rendering many Islanders without employment - and others looking to follow suit, the States have placed their faith in technology to save the economy.

SPECIFICALLY, ICT - Information and Communication Technologies - have been earmarked for expansion. The investment of substantial amounts of public money into the upgrade of the cable infrastructure that carries data on the Island is proof that the States see the future ‘online’. But exactly why will improved data and communication rescue our economy? What kind of companies might we attract, and how will they benefit the Island?

For a start, although the scope of this article is intended to cover the benefits to the Island’s economy, there has been the emergence this decade of the acronym ICT4D. This stands for ‘Information and Communication Technologies for Development’, and mostly focuses on the application of ICTs towards humanitarian goals in developing countries.

While this doesn’t seem to directly apply to Jersey, the fact is that when looking at ways to improve disadvantaged societies - be it in healthcare, socioeconomic development or general quality of life - aid agencies increasingly look to apply information technology directly, or indirectly - such as aiding Governments, NGOs and businesses who will further improve socioeconomic conditions.

ONE SUCH AGENCY PUT IT THIS WAY; “In our times, the most tangible and effective way to improve information and communication flows in a society consists in fostering ICT, ergo ICT4D.” Whilst Jersey may be a far cry from a developing country or a disadvantaged society, we are facing crisis, no doubt. With the much mentioned loss of the multi-million pound Fulfillment Industry here having a plethora of knock on effects, on everything from our postal service to our Social Security system (more out of work people means more pressure on contribution revenue, and thus even on those working), we need our States to act fast.

Technology is advancing exponentially faster and faster. The more we rely on gadgets and systems to carry out everyday tasks, the more advanced and efficient these products become.

One example; letter writing is as good as lost in history. We went to emails, text messaging, ‘Instant Messaging’. These allowed us to communicate as good as instantly.

Then people began sending ‘videos’ by email or text. Now we have mobile devices capable of allowing ‘face to face’ conversations with someone on the other side of the World.

The devices may be extremely capable, but these type of communications were often bogged down by latency and poor resolution (in both audio and visual terms), which has been inherent to the networks that carry the data.

This started the mass explosion of technological research into faster and more capable data connections. The thing is, the better it gets, the better the devices get, and with so much money being made from providing the latest, fastest and most ‘do-it-all’ capable gadgets, the race is on - and it doesn’t look like it will ever stop.

So really, Jersey needs to be in this race if we are to prosper as a nation in these rapidly advancing times. If the success of a business depends - as it increasingly does - on its ability to communicate directly and instantly with vendors, customers and associates, it needs to be based somewhere that supports this kind of communication.

This is, more than ever, the requirement of one of our main industries in Jersey - finance. It stands to reason that supporting and growing financial service providers presence in the Island - with the benefits to the GDP and standard of living that comes with it - is important, as the door closes behind the fulfillment companies. They need to have access

to equal or better data transfer speeds than their clients and even competitors elsewhere, otherwise the advantages of operating in Jersey are reduced. We need that advantage, because we need them if we are to improve the condition of our economy.

Furthermore, online gaming is huge business.

It’s been covered at length that this is a massive growth industry, and how it requires increasingly improved data transfer and speeds, as games become so advanced as to literally almost become another reality, or ‘world’.

Online gaming is what the Treasury Minister, Philip Ozouf calls a ‘low footprint, high technology and high value’ business. Whilst such a company operating from Jersey would obviously bring revenue into the Island, it is unclear how much employment a ‘low footprint’ would allow for.

Presumably locals seeking work in this industry will need to retrain in relevant computing or server maintenance skills to be of service. It’s unlikely that there will be the same level of vacancies created as with an industry that handles incoming goods, stock management, packing and all the required machinery and logistics involved with getting these products back out.

There will be little ‘peripheral’ benefit, such as the increased need for Jersey Post to hire more staff. Indeed, as online and unified communications are better served, these companies will require less physical involvement - less people. This is the danger of technology in one sense; the better it gets, the more streamlined operations become.

As more people become increasingly married to ever evolving mobile technologies, the development of ‘apps’ - mobile application software - that make lighter work of everyday (and sometimes not so obvious) tasks, is a growing industry.

The International Data Corporation (IDC) is a market research and analysis firm specialising in information technology, telecommunications and consumer technology with over one-thousand analysts working in fifty countries.

A survey they collated a few years ago reported that “smartphone use in the workplace will double between 2009 and 2014”.

They appear to be right, and the phenomenon has been variously dubbed ‘the mobility invasion’ and ‘bring your own device’. Generally, staff will bring their own phone or tablet to work, and use it for work, as opposed to having separate work and personal devices.

This has led to the implementation of ‘Mobile Application Management’ (MAM), whereby firms utilise an app that works across various platforms, and supports the work requirements of staff. When an employee brings a personal device into an enterprise setting, MAM enables the corporate IT staff to provision the device, download appropriate applications, control access to back-end data, and “wipe” the device if it is lost, or when its owner no longer works with the company.

It’s possible that development, management and distribution of Apps and MAM could be an ICT based industry based in Jersey. It appears to be a rapidly growing market.

One of the advantages of having already established ICT businesses operating from Jersey may be the training given to hired locals, be it programming, installation and maintenance, support and marketing. If our top-of-the-line infrastructure attracts the best companies, local workers will hopefully receive the best training and education as a result.

This could, over time, create an environment in Jersey, where the ‘pool’ of skilled local individuals, combined with the world leading infrastructure and communication technologies made premises in Jersey extremely sought after - even competed for. This way, the States would be in the position of accepting only those businesses who were committed to putting something back into the Island.

It’s clear that the potential to improve the current economic situation through ICTs is there, but there needs to be significant thought put into how it happens, and how it’s introduced. We need to implement training for local people to make them suitable for positions within the industry, before the real ‘boom’ happens. Unlike the departing Fulfillment Industry, there isn’t as much scope for workers without relevant qualifications to pick up work.

Outsourcing is already a touchy subject in Jersey, and the displaced ‘1000 workers’ that are set to join the unemployment lines when all the fulfillment/ online retail businesses leave, would not necessarily be instantly employable in the ICT industries. Where does this leave the economy?

Although the investment by the States into developing Jersey into a Worldleading destination for ICT companies seems like a good proposition, it would be foolish to place all our eggs in this basket, figuratively speaking.

The winning retailer will win a trophy, courtesy of Pearce the Jewellers, to proudly have on display for the next 12 months, and an amazing prize.

The second competition is for schoolchildren. Hidden within these sparkling St Helier displays will be the Christmas Window Display sticker. All children have to do is pick up a voting form, state any ten shops which contain the stickers somewhere within their window display, and then nominate the name of their school. The winning school itself wins a £250 cash prize and some additional amazing goodies.

This year is the first time that shoppers can help the judging panel by voting for their favourite window. If the shop window which you like best displays a poster indicating that they are taking part in the competition, simply vote by Thursday 22nd December.

Many of the businesses in St Helier have been letting their imaginations run wild and have been working hard to get their windows and displays looking fantastic this Christmas.

We encourage you to take a stroll around the shops to get a close up look at the festive displays and to vote for your favourite.

Jersey Weekly spoke with Claire Bosq of www.cbs4starservices.com who is helping to organise the competition.

the success from the Jersey Customer Service, Simon Crowcroft has asked us to get involved into organising the competition to get the retailers more involved in the Christmas spirits.

As you will see we are trying to get the kids involved and there will be a cash prize for the most nominations for that school.

How many businesses do you expect to enter?

Getting 200 stickers printed hopefully they will all go!!

Do we know what the amazing prize is yet?

The winner of the Window Competition will win a trophy, kindly sponsored by Pearce The Jewellers and also a trip to Guernsey with Blue Island and overnight stay at the Fairmain Hotel When and where is the winner announced?

Thursday 22nd December @ 6.30pm for the ceremony in the Market. The winners of both these competitions will be announced by Channel 103’s Peter Mac during late-night shopping within the markets on Thursday 22nd December, at 6.30pm.

The organisers invite everyone to come down, as there will be mulled wine and mince pies on offer, and a special markets Christmas theme for the evening.

Has this competition run before?

They actually ran the competition last year, however the response wasn’t massive last year, so this is the first time we are doing it providing a number so people can vote by texting and a QR quote. After

WHAT’S ON

Issue 111, Friday, 16th December 2011

At the Cinema

- Available in 3D

Compiled by Jason Bourgeois, news@jerseyweekly.com

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows The world’s most brilliant detective must face his nemesis the fiendish Professor Moriarty! When the Crown Prince of Austria is found dead, Sherlock Holmes soon suspects the involvement of criminal mastermind Professor Moriarty.

Realising that this is just one piece of a larger plot, Holmes tracks the clues to a gentleman’s club where he and his brother Mycroft are celebrating the last night of bachelorhood for Dr Watson. Here he meets gypsy fortune-teller Sim, who has become Moriarty’s next target. So begins a thrill-packed, continent-hopping and - bizarrely! - cross-dressing adventure, with nothing less than the future of western civilisation at stake! Director Guy Ritchie’s follow-up to his hit ‘Sherlock Holmes’ reunites the brilliant double act of Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law. It also introduces ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ star Noomi Rapace in her first English-language role, with the added attraction of Stephen Fry as Mycroft.

Weekly Bulletin The Mortgage Shop follows the market on a daily basis and is always able to advise on the best rates and deals that are available from all lenders offering mortgages in Jersey.

The Bank of England confirmed on Thursday that base rate will remain at 0.50%. The ongoing world economic crisis will continue to have a major influence on this rate which economists are now predicting will have to remain at this level until at least 2014.

The European summit currently taking place in Brussels could well signal the break up of the Eurozone and it remains to be seen what impact this will have on the UK, let alone the Channel Islands.

In the meantime, life goes on in the local property market and the Friday sittings of the Royal Court are very busy in the lead up to Christmas.

Interest rates remain very low, whilst lenders across the board continue to introduce an ever increasing range of mortgage products. An indication of how confidence is returning to the lending market is best illustrated by the fact that, at the peak of the crisis in 2009, only 1029 residential mortgage products were available in the UK. This number has now increased to 3139, although don’t expect all of these to be available in Jersey !!

Don’t forget that you can pop in to The Mortgage Shop any weekday to take advantage of our Five Minute Review.

“Our Business is Your Success”

EARLIER THIS YEAR, Hawksford, previously Hawksford International, commissioned a significant piece of client and competitor benchmarking, with the results informing a wellconsidered brand re-fresh, of which the new website forms a part. This brand re-fresh has recently been shortlisted for the Best Brand award at the forthcoming Jersey CIM awards.

As part of this process, Hawksford has eveloped a business philosophy ‘thinking beyond tomorrow’, which is also the company’s new positioning statement. There is an entire sub section of the website dedicated to ‘thinking beyond tomorrow’, enabling clients to understand this underlying ethos which is shared across the business. ‘Thinking about tomorrow’ encourages Hawksford’s people to think differently for clients and plan structures that will not only meet their present short-term objectives, but be flexible enough to address the future needs of generations to come.

Create your own 16 page full-colour glossy A4 brochure with 1,000 copies printed and delivered for just £970!

Led by research data, Hawksford has developed a series of sub-brand identities to ensure that both clients and intermediaries alike have a clear understanding of the comprehensive range of services and bespoke services the business offers. These include Hawksford Fiduciary, Hawksford Law, Hawksford Family Office, Hawksford Wills and Probate, Hawksford Funds, Hawksford Employee Solutions, Hawksford Media and Sports, Hawksford Advisory, Hawksford Succession Planning and the company’s Swiss offering, L-S&S GmbH. As users browse through the site, the colours and brand images change, dependent on which of these sub-brand areas the page resides in. This clear navigation makes using the site to find out key information incredibly easy, even for those who know little about Hawksford when landing on the home page.

Also featured within the site is a full database of all of the 130 staff at Hawksford, giving an in depth look into their roles and responsibilities, as well as an insight into their interests and hobbies outside of work.

The corporate brand imagery Hawksford uses throughout the site is intended to be refreshingly different to the standard corporate imagery .

Hawksford, previously Hawksford International, commissioned a significant piece of client and competitor benchmarking, with the results informing a well-considered brand re-fresh, of which the new website forms a part.

This brand re-fresh has recently been shortlisted for the Best Brand award at the forthcoming Jersey CIM awards.

As part of this process, Hawksford has developed a business philosophy ‘thinking beyond tomorrow’, which is also the company’s new positioning statement. There is an entire sub section of the website dedicated to ‘thinking beyond tomorrow’, enabling clients to understand this underlying ethos which is shared across the business. ‘Thinking about tomorrow’ encourages Hawksford’s people to think differently for clients and plan structures that will not only meet their present short-term objectives, but be flexible enough to address the future needs of generations to come.

Led by research data, Hawksford has developed a series of sub-brand identities to ensure that both clients and intermediaries alike have a clear understanding of the comprehensive range of services and bespoke services the business offers. These include Hawksford Fiduciary, Hawksford Law, Hawksford Family Office, Hawksford Wills and Probate, Hawksford Funds, Hawksford Employee Solutions, Hawksford Media and Sports, Hawksford Advisory, Hawksford Succession Planning and the company’s.

Erin Villa Words // Rick Jones Feature Design // Jon Moore

Truly the ultimate ‘beach house’, Erin Villa overlooks the ‘Ramsar’ coastal nature reserve of St Clement. Situated on the Green Island Coast Road, the house is totally enclosed and private, yet still within easy reach of St Helier.

Erin Villa is a fantastic blend of contemporary and traditional, and located in one of the most picturesque spots in the Island. The house has direct beach access, through the sunny, south-facing, lawned rear garden, which would be ideal for a spa or hot-tub.

Imagine the summer evenings - watching the sunset casting a burnt orange hue over the jagged moonscape of the nature reserve as the tide slowly covers it - and all from within sight of your back door.

The property itself is immaculate, finished to the highest standards and built to survive it’s coastal location with minimal maintenance. The front entrance is gated, giving security and privacy, and leaving no doubt on approaching the grounds, that this house is something rather special.

The total approximate floor area is 3,561 sq ft, and the house is arranged over two floors, the upper of which presents a fantastic view across the wetlands reserve, and to France on a clear day.

Beginning at the reception room, a generous 14.5 x 3.9m, the ground floor follows an open plan ‘L’ shape into the highly attractive modern/retro kitchen. This reception/ living area with large patio doors also features a central wood burning stove. Made of traditional cast iron, the stove sits on tiles in turn sitting on the immaculate hardwood floor.

This central feature is not only attractive, but provides radiant heat that will provide a cosiness even the blustery winter weather on the coast can’t compete with.

In addition to the multi-folding patio doors, there is a large round ‘porthole’ type window, in keeping with the nautical/coastal feel of the house.

Like much else throughout the house the kitchen is a tasteful blend of traditional and contemporary. The worktops are attractive hardwood and stainless, there is a modern glass extractor suspended from the ceiling above the gas/halogen combination hob and the units are a lovely pastel washed woodgrain.

This kitchen (8.9 x 4.5m) is cosy, even when empty of the signs of family life - as it was when the accompanying pictures were taken. Despite this, it maintains an ease of cleaning, and keeps it’s modern airiness. A stainless double sink and integrated appliances contrast a traditional mantlepiece. Plenty of natural light enters through the South facing windows, and it all adds up to a very pleasant room to be in.

The kitchen has external doors to both the North and sea-facing South sides. There is also an internal door to a store/larder and a 3.1 x 2.3m utility room, which in turn leads to a further external entrance and a porch.

The second internal door leads to 4.3 x 4.1m ‘reception room’, which in turn leads to a North facing porch and opposite, a staircase leading to a shower room and WC (3.2 x 2.1m).

The ground floor is rounded out by a sun room, which measures a generous 4 x 4m, and a snug at 2.1 x 1.8m with an attached WC and wash basin.

PROPERTY

The Garage is accessed via the sun room internally, and is a large 5 x 2.9m allowing for a large family car and still plenty of space for garden implements and storage for other outdoor sundries.

Up on the first floor we find the stairs leading on to a house bathroom of 3.3 x 2.4m, consisting of bath/shower and WC with pedestal basin.

There are three bedrooms accessed by doors from the surrounding hallway, the largest of which is 4.8 x 4.2m in addition to the 4.1 x 2.4m and 3.5 x 3.4m of the other two.

A separate, doored 2.7 x 1.4m hallway leading from the main hallway leads to the master bedroom and it’s large, fully fitted en-suite and separate walk-inwardrobe areas.

The en suite is 3.4 x 3.2m and has high quality free standing shower and bath units, a WC and wash basin. The wardrobe area is partitioned from the master bedroom, and has integrated storage areas as well as a ‘dressing room’.

The master bedroom is a huge 7.5 x 4.m and opens onto an incredible juliet balcony of 4.6 x 2.1m. The view from here is truly outstanding, and truly does take ones breath away. It’s hard for anyone who has even a slight affection for the sea to remain unmoved when looking across the beautiful tidal flats of St Clement... and this is possibly the best view you can get.

Savills claim that this is “the ultimate beach house” is more than just sales talk.

This truly is an amazing property that leads straight on to an equally amazing unspoiled stretch of what is possibly the finest coastal area in the British Isles.

Viewing is recommended.

Illuminating Coffee Table

Glass Pool Table

£2,000 www.firebox.com Simply plug in this neon-packed, stainless steel beast and watch in awe as its toughened glass surface bursts into life. But that’s only the half of it because a separate downlight casts a chilled glow from its underside.

You can even tone things down via independent dimmer controls and select your own colours using a range of ingenious interchangeable filters.

£39,000 www.firebox.com You’re probably wondering how a glass surface can possibly replicate the rolling resistance of baize. Put simply it can’t. That’s why the G-1’s toughened glass is topped with a patented Vitrik playing surface.

The Batmobile £120,000 www.firebox.com Yes you read that correctly. ‘Atomic batteries to power…turbines to speed…Roger, ready to move out.’

Yes bat-fans, as any caped crusader knows, if you really want to strike fear into Gotham City’s master criminals you need a Batmobile.

www.firebox.com Once private air travel was the exclusive preserve of the rich and famous. Sadly, it still is, unless you happen to have the lion’s share of half a million lying dormant in your bank account. The Skycar, though,

has whipped the Firebox team into a collective frenzy with its vertical take off capability and vaguely enticing 380Mph top speed.

Unlike previous prototype Skycars, the M400 can comfortably seat four people, making a day trip to the south of France with your mates the equivalent of a two-hour blast down the motorway. That’s when it goes on sale, of course, which isn’t just yet.

DEREK WARWICK HONDA ALL NEW HONDA CIVIC 2012 FOR ONE NIGHT, AND BY INVITE ONLY, valued customers of Derek Warwick Honda were given a sneak preview of the all new 2012 model of Honda’s Venerable ‘Civic’. The event was very special indeed, as it chronicled the evolution of this popular and highly regarded car, right up until the previewed model, with all it’s new technology and refinements. On hand to talk about the car, the company and the ideas was veteran Honda Product Trainer, Alfonso Gomez.

Jersey Weekly caught up with Mr Gomez after his witty yet informative presentation, and talked a little about his love for his job, and his love of Jersey, as well as a bit about the car!

WATCHING HONDA PRODUCT Trainer Alfredo Gomez, as he works his way along the panelled display of Honda’s history and innovations, you can’t help but get caught up in his obvious enthusiasm.

He later told us how this was his eighth year of visiting Derek Warwick Honda to unveil and train staff on new products, and how much he loved Jersey.

“As well as being a beautiful Island”, said the energetic demonstrator, “the public I meet here always tell us how Derek Warwick has the very best customer care. It’s a pleasure to come here, and I consider it one of the privileges of getting to a senior trainer’s position I get to do more of these Jersey visits!”.

For this event, the showroom at Derek Warwick Honda, Longueville, was divided by the aforementioned display - that explained Honda’s beginnings, how they had evolved and led neatly to the very newest car the company has for the market... so new it’s not even for sale yet!

The invited guest were treated to retro sweets and treats, as well as the usual wine and soft drinks, and the theme was very much a celebration of the development of Honda as an innovator, as much as a manufacturer.

Beginning at the end of the display closest to the entrance, Alfonso began by telling the crowd how founder Soichiro Honda first saw a Ford Model T, and was captivated by the then modern technology.

“Being a Ford”, continued Alfonso in a tongue-in-cheek manner, “...it naturally left a pool of oil where it had been stood”. The story goes that the young technical wizard bent down and smelled, then tasted the oil... claiming from that moment on, it was “forever in (his) blood.”

Explaining further how Soichiro Honda came to adopt the principles that made Honda such a reputable brand, Alfonso told how of an early experiment, in which he sent his wife to the popular market on a hastily built engine-powered bicycle, only to have her return covered in oil and very unhappy. This, he said, led to Honda’s commitment to never “Try and solve a problem by causing more problems” - and thus the rigorous testing that goes into every Honda product.

He continued through the display, and talked of Honda’s bikes, planes and even the companies ‘ASIMO’ robot! The company is also working on a hydrogen fuel cell, viewing petrol and diesel as on their way to becoming obsolete.

But on to the car! As Alfonso reached what he called ‘his baby’, we were greeted by the very slick lines of what was obviously the star of the show.

Looking mean and clean, and demonstrating the precise ‘shut-lines’ and flawless symmetry that Honda have become famous for, the all new Civic flashed it’s LED sidelights as the ‘Keyless entry’ fob in Alfonso’s pocket came into range.

He went on to demonstrate that there is no part of the new model that hasn’t been thought out. This begins at the grill, where the Honda ‘H’ logo conceals an all new ‘radar array’.

Yes, you read that right; radar! It monitors how close objects are to the car, how fast you are approaching objects or other drivers, whether full beam headlights are appropriate (it ‘dips’ if it senses other head or tail lights) and keeps you alerted if it thinks you are getting tired.

The visibility has been improved in response to customer feedback... the windows keep their funky, sporty raked lines, but now the view is dramatically improved in all directions.

There is a new ‘lip’ machined into the wheels, to stop brake dust covering the stylish new alloys. The doors open in three stages laughingly referred to by Alfonso as ‘wife’ (smallest opening), ‘ex-wife’ (wider) and ‘ex’s Mother’ (very wide!)!

The rear doors open wide and reveal Honda’s ‘magic seat’. This allows a one-handed conversion to a huge open load space in the rear.

Alfonso ‘walked through’ the car, and went on to tell of one ‘rural’ dealer who demonstrated this by leading a Shetland pony through the car!

Other refinements include the ingenious lowering of the insurance group by raising of the rear bumper. Most accidents, reason Honda, are rear shunt types. By raising the bumper, the tailgate is saved in such collisions, meaning that you only need replace the bumper itself.

There were literally so many touches added to the car, that it would take a much bigger article to cover them all... but there are brochures available from Derek Warwick Honda that explain in great detail, and it really bears a look. There will be nine models and three engine options, including the 2.2i DTEC diesel - a technological marvel.

Alfonso tells us that the car will be available around February 2012, after some setbacks due to the Earthquake in Japan. When discussing the driving and handling of the car, the smile on the Product Trainer’s face spoke far more than any sales pitch, and we believed him when he told us; “it’s just amazing!”.

TOYOTA LAND CRUSIER Words and Feature Design by Tiffany Shales

Your weekly full-colour guide to motoring in Jersey.

Issue 111, Friday, 16th December 2011

MOTORING

The Toyota Land Cruiser has had 60 years of pure unrivalled driving experience worldwide. The evolution of the Land Cruiser has been going in leaps and bounds through the years with the design and technology now making it the most durable, most reliable and most comfortable Land Cruiser created by Toyota.

The new Land Cruiser is available with Multi Terrain Monitor (LC5 model only) which delivers you images from four cameras situated around the vehicle, providing useful information about your surroundings. The new Steering Angle Display also lets you know which way the front wheels are pointing. This is not only helpful for offroading but also for parking in tight spaces.

The luxury seats are genuine leather all round and the front seats gain additional comfort with the integrated heating and electrical adjustment. In the back it is exceptionally versatile, spacious and refined. The second-row seats move independently and are more accommodating than ever, thanks to them being able to slide and include the added comfort of reclining seat backs.

A slide-and-tilt walk-in function provides you with easy access to the second and third row seats which fold away flat with the floor at a touch of a button (manual option on LC3).

Land Cruiser responds instantly to your needs with a touch of a button, either on the steering wheel, or the front console. You and your passengers will benefit from triple zone air conditioning ensuring optimum comfort for everyone.

The premium entertainment package includes 17 speaker JBL Synthesis Premium Surround Sound System, custom-designed for the cabin of the Land Cruiser. For the rear passengers the can enjoy the entertainment system,

which features a drop-down colour monitor to watch movies, play games or listen to music on the go.

For the offroaders there is Crawl Control, which automatically controls the engine output and braking to help maintain a very low speed on particularly demanding ground. This helps you concentrate on steering and helps to minimise wheel-spin and wheel-lock, providing outstanding stability (LC5 only). The Land Cruiser also includes Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System and Adaptive Variable Suspension, which intelligently adjust the front and rear anti-roll bars according to the driving conditions. These functions ensure a secure, level progress - on rough ground they will allow long suspension travel for maximum flexibility.

3.0 litre D-4D engine may endow the Land Cruise with an impressive 410Nm of torque from just 1,600rpm, but it’s diesel engine still offers class-leading fuel economy. An efficient transfer of power to the road is provided by a precise five-speed automatic transmission, fitted as standard to all grades. Top speed is 109mph and this refined diesel unit will power the Land Cruiser to 62mph in 11.7 seconds.

Toyota have included some great safety features; for example the Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD), which optimises the brake force allocation between each wheel. The Land Cruiser is also prepared for rear-end collisions, with injuryreducing active headrests - the headrests move diagonally upward and forward, to catch the back of the head helping reduce the risk of whiplash. They have also included ‘follow me home’ which keeps the headlamps illuminated for a limited time after exit - to allow you to safely walk to your destination at night.

Appointments & Achievements Compiled by Tiffany Shales, news@jerseyweekly.com

New Leadership For International Private Clients Students who took part in the IoD Jersey’s Work Shadowing initiative this year were recognised for their hard work earlier this month.

At a prize giving event held at Victoria College on 8th November, attended by over 150 students, business representatives, community leaders, parents and teachers, certificates and awards were presented to the 54 students who took part in this year’s scheme, which was sponsored

by KPMG. Each year, the students’ CVs, letters of applications, interviews and reports of their work shadowing experience are assessed for two main awards. This year, the overall prize was awarded to Fiona Potigny, who shadowed Jon Gripton at BBC Jersey, whilst the runner-up was William Perchard, who shadowed Julie Garbutt at Health and Social Services.

shadowing a senior Director in order to get a taste for a business career.

Maureen Bourniquel, Chair of the IoD Jersey Education and Training Sub-Committee, said: “Particularly in the current climate, it is vital

that we encourage local talent to stay in or return to Jersey, and that local businesses play a part in giving students an opportunity to get a taste of real business life. It is encouraging that the IoD’s work shadowing scheme in Jersey continues to be so well supported, with a high number of students taking part and a broad range of organisations offering placements yet again. It was a pleasure to recognise the efforts of those students and organisations who took part this year.”

The 2012 scheme will get under way again in January, when presentations will be held for Sixth Forms at schools across Jersey.

Viberts Jersey Lawyers consolidates its position as the premier matrimonial practice group in Jersey

Both Fiona and William were presented with engraved salvers by the Lieutenant Governor and will receive an all-expenses paid day trip to London in May 2012 to attend the IoD Annual Convention at the 02 Arena, where previous speakers have included the prime minister of the day, Bill Gates and Bob Geldof.

In addition, a prize was awarded to Alexander Gavriel for writing the best report on a work shadowing experience. Alexander, who shadowed Clive Barton at Moore Stephens, won an engraved silver ball point pen.

Talking about winning the top award, Fiona said: “Winning the IoD

work shadowing scheme was amazing. However, competitive element aside, participating was incredibly rewarding in itself. I thoroughly enjoyed shadowing the Senior Editor of BBC Jersey and can only hope that this glimpse of life at the top was a preview of what is to come for me!”

William added: “The experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity to

shadow a Director at a very senior level, which allowed me to gain unique skills and confidence. The interview and selection process, particularly the close scrutiny of my CV, was especially useful.”

The Jersey branch of the IoD has been running the Work Shadowing scheme for a number of years, supported by Careers Jersey. It provides a means for predominantly Year 12 students to experience a week

Commenting on the appointments Managing Partner, Advocate Zoe Blomfield said, “I am delighted that Andrew, Oliver and Natalie have

Mourant Ozannes promotes top employment lawyer to partner

Advocate Helen Ruelle, one of the leading employment lawyers in Jersey, will become a partner of Mourant Ozannes on 1 February next year.

Helen has been at the firm for ten years and is rated by Chambers and Partners, one of the leading legal directories, as a ‘Tier 1 employment lawyer’.

She is applauded by Chambers as ‘hugely capable and exceptional at translating legal jargon into layman’s terms’.

Helen commented: “I’m thrilled

to be joining the partnership at such an exciting time. I am delighted to lead such a well-respected team and to be working with the exceptional clients we have in the Channel Islands.”

Jonathan Rigby, Managing Partner, Mourant Ozannes, said: “Helen

has been instrumental in building the top-tier employment team in Jersey.

While Mourant Ozannes continues to expand overseas, Helen’s promotion is not only a testament to her personal strengths but also a reflection on the importance we place on the home markets of Jersey and Guernsey. Helen’s promotion to partner now differentiates Mourant Ozannes as being the only firm with top-tier, partner-led employment practices in both Jersey and Guernsey.”

Helen is a member of the Employment Lawyers Association and has recently been appointed Chairman of the Employment Forum, an independent, statutory body which is responsible for consulting and making recommendations on developments in employment law in Jersey.

In addition to leading the employment team, Helen will continue

to advise on a range of issues facing Jersey businesses, including competition, data protection and regulation of undertakings.

Channel Islands law firm Collas Crill has appointed a new partner to its Jersey-based Corporate and Commercial team.

He also has significant experience with offshore capital markets transactions and aviation financing. Mark’s experience spans from startup operations to multi-billion dollar transactions and re-structurings.

He joins Collas Crill’s busy and expanding team in Jersey headed by Paul Wilson. Paul said: Mark’s arrival again signifies the direction we are taking the department and the firm. With an increasing number of our lawyers bringing significant international experience, including in competitor jurisdictions, we are well placed to offer the level of service and depth of experience that clients demand in an increasingly globalised market place. Mark is an excellent addition and we are excited about the contributions that he will make in the continuation of our growth and success both in Jersey and further afield.”

Joint managing partner Kathryn Purkis said: “We are delighted with Mark’s addition to our funds and corporate department. His expertise and experience provide additional strength and depth to our investment funds services. Together with funds specialist Adrian Odell, we now have a formidable team in the investment funds market.”

One client firm said of Mark: “He is not only a superb technical lawyer but also has sound judgement, a great commercial sense and can be expected to routinely come up with creative solutions to difficult problems, often spontaneously.”

Mark was most recently a partner at Maples and Calder in Cayman, where he lived for nine years. He trained and worked at the London magic circle firm Linklaters and also has in-house experience, gained in his role at design and engineering firm Ove Arup.

Of his new appointment Mark said: “Collas Crill is an ambitious firm combining a strong vision and first rate culture with legal excellence.

It is proudly client focused, innovative and forward looking. With the continued gravitation toward well regulated international financial centres such as Jersey and Guernsey, I am looking forward to assisting both the firm and our clients grow and prosper in these jurisdictions.”

Strummerfest 2011

On the 17th of December, a group of local bands will get together at The Star in St. Peter, to celebrate the life of one of modern music’s biggest influences and at the same time raise money for his charity; Strummerville: The Joe Strummer Foundation For New Music.

Joe Strummer, who died suddenly of a heart defect in December 2002, was most famous for being the guitarist and main vocalist of the band The Clash. He went on to sing with folk rockers The Pogues and more recently before his death formed a group with his backing band The Mescaleros. Strummer also wrote music for various film soundtracks and starred in a few movies himself.

Event organisers Craig Welsh and Dan ‘Leatherland’ Parkes tell us more about the background of the event: “My band were

asked by the good people at The Star to come over from the UK and play for them just before Christmas.” Craig tells us. “Dan and I had spoken for a while about doing a fundraiser for Joe’s charity and as December is the 9th anniversary of his passing, we thought this would be a great time to do it. I’ve a lot of contacts with bands over here so thought we could get a load of our mates involved too. The whole thing then just got bigger.”

“It went from what was just going to be an evening event like any other gig to an whole day of music.” Dan explains. “Joe is a hero of mine and he deserves such a party to celebrate his life.

Words can’t describe how much of an influence he’s had on the music world. Not just in punk but in every genre.”

Strummerville is a charity that gives support to aspiring musicians and assists projects that help promote change in the world through music. Set up by the friends and family of Joe Strummer, the charity seeks to reflect Joe’s unique contribution to the music world by offering support, resources and performance opportunities to artists who would not normally have access to them.

The bands playing the event are in keeping with the spirit of Joe’s passion for different genres. The line up consists of London new wavers Top Buzzer, hardcore indie gangsta’s Pirate Video Company, ska punk hipsters Bulletproof, in your face drum and bass duo Falenizza Horsepower, alternative art rockers Scruffians and Nicolas Cage enthusiasts Nicolascage. DJ Leatherland will be on the digital decks providing music throughout the day.

So why the west? “Quite a few people have already asked why

do the gig out of town? I think Joe was a bit of a hippie at heart so I’m sure he would of preferred something like this happening out in the country rather than the capital.” Craig explains. “I still find it funny that on an Island this small people find a 30 minute maximum journey a struggle.”

Entry to this unique event is free all day and kicks off at 3:00pm. Donation buckets will be doing the rounds, so please be generous to this worthy cause.

Ed Blampied of ‘Caricature Corner’ The chances are, you’ve probably found yourself in the queue at the ever popular ‘Hungry Man’ cafe, on Rozel Pier, waiting for arguably the best bacon rolls in the Channel Islands. If so, you can’t have failed to notice the vibrant beach art and caricatures that adorn the busy kiosk.

The man behind these eye catching and humorous cartoons - as well as the one you see on the cover of this very issue - is Jersey’s own Eddie Blampied. Jersey Weekly caught up with Eddie, to find out what else the roguish Rozel artist has been up to...

Words // Rick Jones • Feature Design // Jon Moore

Ed Blampied says:

108

ALTHOUGH THE HUNGRY MAN was the work that got Ed noticed - and it certainly is noticeable - in his own, words Ed has been an artist; “since (he) was born”.

Driven by the desire to “cheer people up”, Ed’s art has always leaned towards what he calls “a distorted view of reality and sense of fun”, and again by his own admission; “has never grown up”.

Working mostly in acrylic paints - although he is equally adept at sketching and even makes his own 3D models, still in his unique style - Eddie takes a distinctly tongue-in-cheek view of human behaviours and situations. His style is instantly recognisable, and once seen seldom forgotten. His characters and caricatures have big eyes and very expressive faces, and his landscapes and buildings often feature a kind of ‘fish-eye-lens’ profile that somehow renders places you recognise part of a cartoon world that seems a lot more fun than the real one!

This definitive style led him in several directions at once, as his work became better known and continued to develop. He now splits his artistic output, mainly between interiors - you can see an example if you eat at the wonderful ‘Crab-shack’ in St Brelade’s Bay - and commissioned caricature portraits.

His caricatures put his own spin on uncanny likenesses to real people, and he works from either sittings or photos. Working from photos allows people to surprise friends and loved ones with a unique gift - something to cherish above and beyond anything bought off a shelf.

The magic of Ed’s caricatures is his ability to find the ‘character in the character’ and uncannily pick up on people’s sense of humour and traits.

Ideas for some of his funnier - and often more risqué - pieces often come from limericks, observations or sayings. These often put; “a picture in (his) head”, and he says the only way to get it out, is to get it out on a canvas!

These highlight his desire to “never become a boring artist, never grow up and never take life too seriously”... this is something of a paradox however, as he stresses that as fun as it all may seem, he views his work for other people as of paramount importance.

“The preparation and time I put in would surprise most people, who tend to think this all comes easily. I don’t take commissioned work lightly... if I expect people to keep and cherish their picture, I need to put as much love into it as I hope they’ll give it.”

His plans for the future include taking his new ‘Caricature Corner’ venture onto the high street of St Helier during the tourism season, providing quick fire sketches of any holiday maker or local that may want themselves immortalised in Eddie’s inimitable style.

If his mission in life was to provide smiles, doing what he loves in the process, Ed has certainly achieved what he set out to do. In the beginning of December, his stall at the ‘Spirit of Christmas Market’ on Weighbridge place drew all manner of admirers, and to a person, they all seemed to grin as they looked over the larger than life characters that make up much of Ed’s displayed work.

He always has prints available, as well as originals, and his charming 3D models of boats and even ‘Gollywogs’. He’s also more than happy to tackle the daunting prospect of adding you, your family or friends - or even pets - to his list of characters!

His other love is comedy, which follows naturally from the sense of humour that’s obvious in his art. Watch out for him on Comedy Central, as he intends to hit some stages with his stand-up act next year!

You can contact him at eddieblampied@googlemail.com - and be sure to stop by if you see ‘Caricature Corner’, on a... well... corner, near you soon!

Jersey Live are pleased to announce that they are launching the first of many live nights due to take place at The Radisson. The Pigeon Detectives are to take the opening slot at this first event at the hotel, so the Jersey Live crowd is invited to take a dip into something new from the Jersey Live Team and join us at The Waterfront for a Massive Christmas Party Special with Indie legends, The Pigeon Detectives!

The Pigeon Detectives were a coup booking by Jersey Live organisers back in 2007, when the Leeds based band were just erupting onto the Indie music scene: they fast became one of the coolest bands of the year in British music when an early version of their debut album, ‘Wait for Me’ leaked to underground music download sites across the internet.

The album charted straight in at Number 3 on the UK Top 40, achieving Gold status soon after release. The band went on to support Dirty Pretty Things, Kaiser Chiefs and release a string of albums and play a plethora of festivals.

Jersey Live 2007 saw The Pigeon Detectives play alongside The Fratellis and Kasabian, and now we invite you to see them in a unique setting at The Radisson.

Their new album, “Up Guards And At ‘Em!” has recently been released and no doubt we can expect that they’ll take the Jersey Live crowd to Indie heaven and back again on 23rd December with tracks from that and a set list crammed with classics...

110

In a recent review by NME, The Pigeon Detectives are described as, “One of Britain’s most fashionable bands (...) They look set to outlast the Indie boom years that spawned them.”

Bands like The Pigeon Detectives will always deliver, after a three-year break, crowds at a recent live gig in Liverpool blogged that “The crowd erupted into chants of “We want more, we want more”, proving how entertaining they are and how much they are loved by their fans. Of course they obliged and treated the audience to an encore of ‘What You Gonna Do’, a track from their upcoming album. ” This event is no one hit wonder - we will now be bringing you Jersey Liveness all year round from here on in... Supporting the scene 12 months of the year - top acts, support from local talent and a new and unique setting to host the Jersey Live spirit!

Supporting The Pigeon Detectives will be the formidable force of local acoustic act; Rick Jones, and there is another live spot yet to be filled in the support line up too; we’ll keep you posted...

Jersey Live favourite, DJ Pip Robinson will be keeping the crowd swagger happy with his Indie classics set all through the interludes and all around the edges!

On Boxing Day, Theology round off a huge year (in which every one of their Watersplash events has sold out well in advance) with a huge triple headliner show. Joining the seminal jungle/d&b producer and Dizzee Rascal collaborator Shy FX, and Plan B’s beatboxer Faith SFX, is Brightonbased scratch DJ JFB. If you think you recognise the name, it may well be because you witnessed him tearing up the Jersey Live Dance Arena in September. Or it may be that you’re aware of his recent second UK DMC championship win. Or perhaps you’re familiar with his collaborations with Beardyman at Brighton’s legendary Battlejam nights. He’s got much to feel pleased about.

Renowned for his party-starting capabilities, he’ll have even more reason to celebrate than usual when he rounds off his year at the Splash; 2011 has been a big one for JFB, with sets at some of Europe’s most prestigious clubs and festivals, and plaudits coming at him left, right and centre.

Armed with a wide palate of hip-hop, breaks, dubstep, jungle, rock and anything else that tickles his fancy in the moment, he’s a truly unique talent and one that we firmly recommend you check out. We caught up with him whilst on tour to find out what he has planned for us…

So you’re on tour in Canada right now.

How’s that going, where are you right now and what have you been up to today?

It’s been amazing! I have only two left out of the twelve awesome gigs all round the West coast. The parties have been sick! People are really friendly - and the cheeseburgers and bacon are amazing!

Right now I’m in Calgary airport waiting to board a flight to Grand Parrie, where I’m playing tonight. So far I’ve woken up with a small manageable hangover, eaten a banana and been driven to the airport.

This’ll be your second time in Jersey this year – how was your visit in the summer for Jersey Live Festival?

It was sick! Loads of mental people going mental, a really well organised festival. I had lots of fun.

How do your sets differ from gig to gig? Do you do much on the fly or is it all very precise?

On the fly, except for certain scratch routines which are pre-prepared, but choosing when to do them is done on the fly.

How did winning the DMC Championship in 2007 change things for you?

All the promoters who had booked me in the past then booked me at the same time, which gave my profile a boost, which enabled me to build on that.

WORDS

Where do you find most of your new music? Do you find that the ease of access to music online has taken the mystique out of collecting records?

There are still lots of record shops to go digging in, but there are lots of different types of digging nowadays. It’s good to do as much digging as possible in as many different ways as possible.

You’re famed for your embracing of new technologies – a) what’s your favourite bit of kit you own, b) what bit of gear is on your Christmas wish-list, and c) what would be your fantasy piece of equipment?

My favourite bit of equipment right now is probably my Rane TTM57SL Serato Mixer.

For Xmas can someone please buy me a £800 sample pack/VST called ‘Hollywood Strings’? My fantasy piece of equipment would be an anti gravity generator big enough to make everyone in a club float…

You’re getting into production too now – are we likely to hear an album any time soon? Have you got any tracks down that might end up on one?

I’ve been on production for a while, slowly putting stuff out over the years, much more recently. I have quite a few EPs out but not been patient enough to make an album. I’m still waiting for my production to get to the next level - then I’ll make an album..

Finally, any Christmas messages for the Jersey crowd before you arrive?

Please come to the gig and bring leftover turkey – thanks!

JFB, Shy FX and Faith SFX headline the Theology @ The Watersplash, Monday 26th December, 10pm – 2.30am. Tickets are £17.50 from Carob, Thee Splash and White Label, £20 on the door (subject to availability). Coaches depart Liberation Square 10pm sharp and return from the Watersplash from 2.30am.

Jersey Weekly reports on iCandy, Jersey’s first modeling and promotions company, filling a niche in the market with well, a whole lot of iCandy! Not just a pretty face, iCandy is the brainchild of Ngaio Miller, a 21 year old local ex JCG student.

Ngaio decided upon starting her own company around about the same time as she became a mother – so she has two babies, a little boy and a little company – both of which will undoubtedly grow into great things!

Having worked for a promotions company in Sydney, Australia whilst on her travels in 2009, Ngaio realized her niche.

Loving the promotions game; Ngaio had a natural ability with people and with a confidence and understanding of promoting anything from events to an array of products she soaked up the experience and simply brought her newfound skills back to Jersey.

“I felt there was a hole in the Jersey market that iCandy could fill, so I set-up a meeting

with Mellissa from Jersey Enterprise. She helped me with the basic procedures of setting up a new business.”

The concept behind iCandy is simple, it sort of does what it says on the tin by hiring rather attractive people for the iCandy books – promotions people who can perform a diverse range of tasks.

Modeling, flyering, promoting and (as I experienced after using the iCandy girls at an event), generally helping out in any way they can – selling raffle tickets, shaking charity buckets…

“I came up with the name iCandy whilst I was driving in my car. I felt this sounded like a fun yet professional name and I liked the play on words.

iCandy is your cherry on top, which can make any event that extra bit special.”

Once the original iCandy Facebook page was set up, Ngaio was bombarded with applications from girls who wanted to try their hand at modeling and promotions there are a few guys, but Ngaio is still in search of some more!

The website was next, opening for business only a couple of months ago in September.

A steady flow of work has passed through iCandy ever since and there is ample on the horizon with Christmas and New Year coming up – Ngaio is really pleased with the response to iCandy from all manner of clients.

Feedback has been positive and iCandy is making an impact.

So, Ngaio how is it juggling a business with motherhood?

The day-to-day running of the business can be done from home, which means I get to spend lots of time with my son.

I am lucky because I have a very supportive partner and my parents around, so they

can look after Kael whilst I go for meetings and to events.

I really have the best of both worlds when it comes to family and work.

What can we expect to see from iCandy in the future?

I am looking forward to the future and growth of the company, from its conception to now, the business seems to have filled a void in the market locally. I’d like to see iCandy at every event, big or small Island-wide – who knows, we could stretch to Guernsey in the future…?

We sure do hope to see more from iCandy in 2012… If you’re planning an event, or you have something to promote or sell – why not use iCandy to boost your business?

Ngaio is happy to discuss options and the pricing is really inexpensive…

One of the great things about using a local company such as this, the price is fair!

Christmas Day Swims A swim or dip in the sea on Christmas day is a traditional event for many swimming clubs and locals in Jersey. With sea temperatures ranging anywhere from 3-10°C, the challenge is to brave the cold! It’s certainly a good way to clear your head after the excesses of the season.

Depending on how hardy the participants are, it can be anything from a quick 30 second dip, to a longer session playing in the waves. Wet suits are generally frowned upon!

Jersey has held a number of Christmas day swims every year since the Jersey Swimming Club was formed in 1865. The event is a firm fixture in many Islander’s calendars from advanced swimmers, through to those who want to get involved in the organising and help raise money for local charities. The event started off as, and continues to be one of the year’s biggest social gatherings of members young and old.

The Christmas Day festive dip is often organised in aid of a charity. The swims normally attract huge crowds of not only swimmers, but people there to support and join in with the atmosphere.

Jersey Weekly takes a look at this year’s Christmas Day Swims and fund raising efforts. Are you brave enough to face the sea?

Remember that the events are not just for members, but also their friends and family and any local residents who wish to join in. As such, it has become one of our biggest fundraising events of the year.

The Jersey Surfboard Club

The Jersey Canoe Club

The Jersey Swimming Club

For the last five years now the Jersey Surfboard Club have held their Christmas Day Swim at the Watersplash. This event starts at 11.15am so participants who swim at the Quaisne event can make their way round afterwards.

The swim is also in aid of Jersey Hospice. Hot drinks will be served in the Watersplash bar.

A tradition that has been upheld for many years now; the Jersey Canoe Club invites participants down to St Catherine’s slipway.

This swim is for fun on Christmas day. Then on Boxing Day, the club organise a paddle. For those brave enough to swim on Christmas day mulled wine and mince pies are served afterwards at the club house.

The Jersey Swimming Club and friends once again welcome everyone to their annual festive dip. More than 200 people are expected to plunge into the seawater swimming pool at Havre des Pas for this traditional event.

All proceeds and funds raised will go to the Jersey Hospice Care charity.

The Old Smugglers Inn Christmas Swim The Old Smugglers Inn Christmas Swim is another firm favourite with Islanders, and invites brave swimmers to take to the waters of Quaisne. This year Headway are confirmed as a beneficiary alongside Hospice, so people can dare each other or raise funds for jumping in the sea!

Headway challenge everyone - not just the hardiest of Islanders - to join in the Old Smugglers Inn Christmas swim, which will take place on Christmas day at 10am, at Ouaisne beach. Swimmers will be rewarded with mulled wine and mince pies in the Smugglers Inn to warm up afterwards. Sponsorship forms are available and donations will be divided between Headway Jersey and Jersey Hospice Care.

Sponsorship forms can be emailed, please contact beth.headway@gmail.com Where: Ouaisne slip, Le Ouaisne, St Brelade When: 25/12/11 - 10:30am - 1:30pm Headway has also created a selection of Christmas card to raise funds.

This includes great pictures of a recent ‘Santa Skinny Dip’, that was set up specifically for the Christmas card shot. The ‘Santa Swim’ Christmas Cards were created on an autumnal day down at Beauport bay with a group of Headway supporters daring enough to jump in the sea wearing very little - some only a Santa hat! The photographer Chris Elward chose this shot to create the special Headway Christmas Card raising funds for local people affected by brain injury. The card is just £1 and available from Headway Shop, Charity Christmas Card Shop at Jersey Post Office, The Forum, The Old Smugglers Inn and Moulin De Lecq.

Local Band ‘Pirate Party Brigade’ Set Sail to Plunder the Christmas Charts The local Jersey rock band who go by the naughtily nautical name of ‘Pirate Party Brigade’ have press-ganged themselves quite a fan base over the last year. During their regular gigs in Jersey, the energy ‘The Pirates’ kick out has gotten even the scurviest, wooden legged varmints up and dancing. Now they’ve set sail - this time quite literally - and hidden themselves in deepest darkest Wales, where they have recruited one of the UK’s top producer and studio combinations. But not before recording what they hope will become a Christmas chart topper!

The five-piece band, consisting of Tom Drysdale on lead guitar, Matt Powell on rhythm guitar, Philipe Jackson on bass guitar, Chris Colin on drums and the inimitable Adam ‘Monty’ Montgomery on vocal duties, got together last year.

They are simply a bunch of lads who love playing music, love having fun and want to share it all with anyone who feels like partying. Don’t let this fool you into thinking that this makes them anything less than a polished band though, as every member is a skilled musician, and at least two of them are time-served veterans of the Jersey live music scene, with plenty of gigging experience.

style one Saturday morning.

Ryan challenged them, perhaps inadvertently, to achieve a Christmas number one! He may have been joking, but Monty, the band’s front-man, really does like a challenge!

The band locked themselves in with Jersey producer Sam Falle - himself no stranger to the race for Christmas no.1 (he has a very impressive client list!) - and, in record time, recorded a Christmas song!

They say the song combines a medley of melodies inspired by none other than Sir Cliff Richard himself, Slade and Wizard... intrigued? Well you should be!

In a very non Piratical move, the band have pledged 80% of download sale profits to the charity Marie Curie Cancer Care.

The hope is that by attempting to sell as many downloads as they can, they raise a substantial amount for the charity that will in turn help sufferers.

So “what’s made them take on the X-Factor and all the other festive releases?”, you ask.

In the band’s own words; “We have been working on this track for several weeks, and although we are not the typical Christmassy band we all enjoyed working on the Mistletoe song. This is the first time we have released anything for charity, and hopefully the public will help support the worthy cause that is Marie Curie Cancer Care. We chose Marie Curie, because there are thousands of cancer sufferers that benefit from their care, which costs upwards of £83 Million per year to administer. So, wether we sell 5 copies or 5 million, every penny will help.”

It all began when the band appeared on DJ Ryan Morrison’s excellent ‘Introducing’ show on BBC Radio Jersey. Ryan gives plenty of exposure to Jersey’s musicians, and the PPB boys rocked up and rocked his show acoustic

You can download the single at www. piratepartybrigade.com or from iTunes, by searching the band’s name. Good luck guys, and may you raise plenty of money for Marie Curie Cancer Care!

The boys deliver a great show, pull a great crowd and never fail to entertain... and they do it all without seeming to take themselves too seriously.

• 2 oranges, juice and zest • 6 eggs • 250 g shredded suet • 350 g soft muscovado sugar • 250 g fresh bread crumbs • 175 g self-raising flour • 1 tsp mixed spice

You will need two 1.5 litre plastic pudding basins and lids, buttered, two old sixpences or two pound coins, scrupulously scrubbed, two circles of grease-proof paper, buttered, large enough to cover the top of each pudding, with a single pleat folded down the centre of each.

Firefly at Durrell, Durrell • 860082

BACK IN APRIL A NEW ADDITION came to Durrell in the form of Firefly – a restaurant situated in the new foyer, also recently built.

was an understatement! The mushrooms were encased in a filo pastry parcel and were complimented by a colorful platter of greens and reds – very festive!

On arrival you are greeted by Santa, in his grotto, complete with dancing snowmen - a nice touch for the little ones.

My guest enjoyed slow cooked highland venison and beef in sloe berry gin, with cinnamon spiced red cabbage and ‘truffled’ mashed potato. This was a real hearty, seasonal meal, beautifully presented with the mash and cabbage stacked and surrounded with the venison and beef in a rich sauce. I opted for pan roasted turkey parcel with pork and chestnuts wrapped in bacon served with bubble and squeak and a mulled wine jus – how can you not have the turkey a this time of year? The presentation again was impeccable with the dish fenced in by whole seasonal vegetables.

As we are very much in the Christmas season a new threecourse menu has been created, as well as their normal lunchtime menu. These two creations were the brainchild of local Michelin Star holding consultant chef, Adrian Doolan. Not only does he design the menus, but he also comes in and trains the in-house chefs to cook to his high standards.

One of the more endearing factors of eating at Firefly, is that you know all the produce is either locally grown; much of it on site. Durrell grow, and even supply, seasonal vegetables including tomatoes, potato’s and basil – so expect to see plenty of it when you’re there!

The Christmas menu does pose a problem – deciding what to have! The choice of starters, mains and desserts is accommodating for everyone, and they even have a kids Christmas menu. They also offer some great specials including lasagne, pizzas, and seafood as well as their normal menu.

My guest and I opted for the Christmas menu and found ourselves spoilt for choice. I went for the Classic Prawn Cocktail, a boring choice some may say but, I was swayed by the ‘bloody mary-rose sauce’ - it was served with melon and was delicious. Too much melon and the dish can become a little too sweet for me but the balance was perfect. My guest had forest mushroom strudel with winter leaf salad and a cranberry dressing, to say I had food envy

We just wanted to say a big thanks to all the great staff at Firefly, we were looked after by some really friendly people and made to feel extremely welcome. It’s a shame Firefly is not open of an evening as I think it would give more people the chance to come and sample some good food and service. They are opening later the next few Fridays over Christmas and are taking group bookings for parties for winter and summer next year – get in there quick!

Birmingham & Solihull 3 Jersey 41

Jersey wasted no time in taking the lead at Damson Park against bottom-placed Birmingham & Solihull Bees.

Donovan Sanders crossed for a try within two minutes of the game starting, and although Mike le Bourgeois missed the conversion and a penalty attempt, persistent infringements meant a penalty try to the visitors. Ross Broadfoot took up the kicking duties and converted this try and the next by ‘Le Booj’ after Brendan O’Brien’s quickly-tapped penalty (0-19). Kingsley Lang crossed just before half-time to wrap up a rare first-half bonus point.

Jersey old boy Dan Hawkes notched an early penalty when the game resumed, but then Sanders added a second, and Nick Trower also crossed to make it 34-3.

The Bees were able to stem the flow of points in the final quarter, but just before the end 17-year-old Chris Levesley capped an excellent performance - both by himself and his team - with a 50-metre run to the line. Le Bourgeois had taken up the kicking duties again after Broadfoot was replaced by Ashley Maggs and nonchalantly dropkicked the final conversion.

26 mile walk - 16 people 18 mile walk - 96 people Team relay - 23 (6 teams) Laurent Thebault and Tim Renault the co-organisers of the Jersey Christmas Walk - which was set up in memory of former colleague Peter Ward - would like to thank all the walkers for taking part and raising sponsorship and all the helpers who manned the checkpoints and cooked the breakfast, for making the Walk such a successful and enjoyable event. Other supporters this year included RBS International, Dunells who supplied the bottled water and Cimandis who provided the food and energy drinks and biscuits.

The new team relay option attracted six teams which included the Lieutenant Governor Sir John McColl and his wife Lady McColl who took part in the first leg of the relay from Les Fontaines Tavern to Greve de Lecq.

The Walk presentation evening will be held on Thursday 2nd February 2012 at Les Fontaines Tavern, St John, where certificates will be give to all walkers who took part and cheques will be presented to Jersey Hospice Care and the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

Tough Guy 2012

James Voss (17) made his debut from the bench in the closing quarter of an hour.

In other games, the headlines were made at Rectory Field where a ding-dong encounter ended with leaders Ealing drawing level with Blackheath with about 5 minutes to play, and that’s how it finished: 27-27. Rosslyn Park and Fylde had ultimately comfortable BP wins over Barking (44-13) and Cinderford (37-22) respectively, leaving the league table as: Ealing 63, Ross Pk and Fylde 59, Jersey 58.

Blackheath come to Jersey on Saturday, they’re 6th with 48 points.

Wharfedale notched an unlikely 8-3 win at Cov, Tynedale whopped Sedgley by 61-17, Blaydon won 28-26 at Cambridge and finally Macc 22 Stour 19.

Jersey Christmas Walk

A total of 179 people took part in Saturday’s 10th Jersey Christmas Walk in aid of Jersey Hospice Care and the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

It was perfect weather and at least £16,000 has been raised for the two charities with more to follow.

Participant numbers: 44 mile walk - 44 people

GYMNASTICS Words // Marcus Quinn • Feature Design // Jon Moore

Club: Regent Gym Club Founded: 1981 Members: 300+ Interesting fact: Founder Arthur Falle has never been a gymnast – he only became interested in the sport when his daughter Melanie joined Grouville Gym Club. Now, Melanie runs the club’s Little Monkeys classes, for toddlers up to six years old, and Arthur’s daughter Julia runs the Fort Regent School of Gymnastics, for children from the age of five, as well as Regent Gym Club, which is an elite programme for skilled and committed gymnasts.

Contact: Julia Falle (07797 739766 or j.falle@jerseymail. co.uk) or Mel (07797 731101 or littlemonkeys2009@hotmail.co.uk) Website: www.regentgymnastics.co.uk

WHAT IS THE ATTRACTION OF THE SPORT?

Gymnastics is a very competitive sport, and those who train to become gymnasts learn to be strong, agile and poised and an all-round sportsperson. There are four disciplines – the floor, the asymmetric bars, the vault and the beam – and in a normal competition entrants must do them all. As a result they must be fit and well trained, and also able to dance and perform.

WHAT DOES MEMBERSHIP TO REGENT GYM CLUB INVOLVE? Regent Gym Club offers three specific gymnastic programmes for children, which includes Little Monkeys, the Fort Regent School of Gymnastics and Regent Gym Club.

“The coaches at the clubs follow a proven programme of development which progress the gymnasts in a safe, professional, educational and fun environment and cater for those who enjoy the sport at a recreational level, as well as gymnasts at a more competitive level,” says founder Arthur Falle. All gymnasts and coaches in the club are members of British Gymnastics (UK National Governing Body for the sport of Gymnastics), and coaches are fully qualified through British Gymnastics.

Subscribe to the weekly email newsletter for more offers online…

HOW DO THE THREE SECTIONS OPERATE?

Little Monkeys offers classes based upon creative and physical gymnastics exercise and movement for active little boys and girls from walking to six years. “At Little Monkeys, our coaches serve as a guide as parent and child work together on basic motor and social skills. Together they practice a variety of gentle moves that help develop the child’s balance, body awareness and coordination,” says Arthur.

Fort Regent School of Gymnastics caters for both recreational and general gymnastics, developing gymnasts to the best of their abilities, while Regent Gym Club caters purely for competitive gymnastics. “Elite gymnasts must be dedicated to the sport but in return for their dedication and hard work are provided with the opportunity to train and compete in various locations across the UK and Europe,” says Arthur.

WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF THE CLUB?

Regent Gym Club was formed by Arthur in 1981, and expanded in 2009 to create the Fort Regent School of Gymnastics and Little Monkeys. Today, Arthur and his daughters Julia and Melanie run sessions six days a week at Fort Regent, while Arthur’s daughter Stefanie, who lives in the UK, has recently qualified as a Woman’s Artistic Regional Judge and regularly judges within the Southern Region.

WHAT NOTABLE SUCCESSES HAVE YOUR MEMBERS HAD?

“The clubs have had many successes over the years, producing many gymnasts of a high standard who have represented Jersey and won medals at English County, Regional and National competitions, Island Games, Jeux Des Isles and various competitions in France, Germany, Malta and even Canada,” says Arthur.

HOW CAN SOMEONE GET INVOLVED?

If you would like to enrol your child with either Regent Gym Club, Fort Regent School of Gymnastics or with the Little Monkeys, contact Julia or Mel or log onto the club’s website for more information.

BLACKBURN v WEST BROM Saturday 15:00 WEST Brom have lost four of their last six Premier League games, picking up four points from a possible 18, and their most recent defeat was at home to strugglers Wigan. However, an away tie to relegation contenders Blackburn could be a chance to regain a few league places, since things aren’t looking too good for Rovers right now.

They’ve won just two games all season, taking ten points from 45.

EVERTON v NORWICH Saturday 15:00 EVERTON have now followed successive wins with two successive defeats, and have lost seven of their last ten Premier League games. They’ve also failed to score in six of their 14 matches this season and have lost four out of five home games. An in-form Norwich side could well be confident of causing another upset tomorrow, following a cracking 4-2 result over Newcastle last weekend.

FULHAM v BOLTON Saturday 15:00 THERE’S no let-up for Bolton manager Owen Coyle as the Trotters travel to Craven Cottage for another unsavoury tie against a side who seem to found decent form of late. Though they were beaten by Swansea last Saturday at the Liberty Stadium, in recent weeks Fulham have scored a 1-0 over Liverpool and a 1-1 at Arsenal, while bottom-placed Bolton have lost 12 of their 15 league matches and managed just nine points all season.

NEWCASTLE v SWANSEA Saturday 15:00 IT all started so well for the Magpies, but since they relinquished their unbeaten run they’ve picked up just one point from their last three games, against Manchester City and Manchester United away and Chelsea at home. Still, striker Demba Ba is on blistering form, and Shola Ameobi is just a goal away from 50 for the club, so they’ll be looking for another few at home against Swansea who, despite a win over Fulham last weekend, still need to work on their away form.

WOLVES v STOKE Saturday 15:00 WOLVES are five points better off than they were at this stage last season, yet they’ve lost nine of their last 12 Premier League matches, taking seven points from a possible 36. They’ve also not managed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games, and with Stoke resplendent after a brilliant 2-1 win over Tottenham last Sunday, Wolves stopper Wayne Hennessey may be facing another tough task.

WIGAN v CHELSEA Saturday 17:30 WIGAN would like to think they’re on an upturn following a dismal start to the season – last month’s win over Sunderland was following with a solid 2-1 at West Brom last weekend, moving them out of the relegation zone for the first time. This probably isn’t the best time to be playing Chelsea, who seem to have found their form again following Champions League qualification and a decent run of Premier League results.

QPR v MAN UTD Sunday 12:00 QPR have lost four of their last six games and won just two of their last ten, and while they can yet afford to make a few mistakes they’ll be conscious that they’re starting to slip towards the drop zone. United were knocked out of the Champions League group stages last week for the first time since 2005-06 and will now be desperate for a result at Loftus Road if they’re to mount a comeback on the domestic front, following an impressive 4-1 over Wolves last weekend.

ASTON VILLA v LIVERPOOL Sunday 14:05 ASTON Villa have 19 points from 15 games, which is their lowest points tally at this stage of the season since 2005-06. Until they beat Bolton last weekend, in fact, Villa had not won and not scored in three Premier League matches, though they are in the top half of the table and will be looking to capitalise on Liverpool’s recent away loss to Fulham, which was their first defeat in 12 matches in all competitions.

TOTTENHAM v SUNDERLAND Sunday 15:00 TOTTENHAM came agonisingly close last weekend to setting a new club record of seven unbeaten Premier League matches – but defeat to Stoke put a stop to a blistering run of form that saw them take 31 points from their opening 14 games. A win will keep them in the top four, but a revitalised Sunderland under new manager Martin O’Neill could give them a good run for their money.

MAN CITY v ARSENAL Sunday 16:10 ARSENAL may have had a relatively unremarkable start to the season, but, remarkably, they’re on exactly the same record as they were 12 months ago – nine wins, two draws and four losses – and that kept them in the title running until April. They’ll need to pull something special out of the bag if they’re to beat City on home turf, however, and the current league leaders could open a huge gap on rivals United if they’re able to maintain the pace.

Clear investment. Pure energy.

GAS BILL. Oh dear.

OIL BILL. Oh, very dear.

Electricity prices frozen for a third winter.

Domestic oil and gas prices have risen by an uncomfortable *87% and *41% in the past two years to June, while Jersey Electricity prices have fallen.

We cut prices by 5% in 2010, froze them this year and now we’re maintaining tariffs at current levels again to help you keep warm this winter.

That’s two-and-a-half years of stable prices.

Affordable, secure and sustainable electricity.

Isn’t it time you made the switch?
