Thousands of commuters in Brighton and Hove could be in line for the chance to buy part-time season tickets in a big shake-up of rail fares. Caroline Lucas, the MP for Brighton Pavilion, is calling on the Department of Transport to trial the scheme on Brighton-to-London mainline services. She made the call after plans were signalled by transport minister Norman Baker. The Liberal Democrat MP for Lewes said: “Why should there be a season ticket that works for people who work five days a week but that leaves people out of pocket if they work three or four days a week? Where’s the justice in that?” In a letter to Mr Baker, Dr Lucas immediately welcomed the flexibleticketing plan: “This kind of flexibility would reflect the realities of modern working life and would be of great benefit to part-time commuters in my constituency. It would help lessen the impact of fares that are already too high on household budgets that are already too stretched. “In particular, it would be of benefit to the many parents for

Picture this: you could be in a work of art You can put yourself in this picture: an "insanely-detailed" work of art showing 11 streets in and around Kensington Gardens, from Queen's Road to Grand Parade. Artist Tristan Bristow, 32, has spent five months on an intricate line-drawing, which was then scanned in and digitallycoloured to produce a unique view of the North Laine. Now Tristan - who graduated with a fine art degree, but found himself sweeping the streets for Cityclean for four years - wants to populate the image, which is so detailed you can see the numbers on the doors of houses. He is inviting residents of the North Laine and beyond to send in fullbody photographs of themselves to be included in the final version. Tristan said: "If you can do it either in shade or an overcast day, that would be great. "Then you can also add any extra photos of you demonstrating your personality. Whatever you fancy! You will be approximately 1-2 cms tall in it, so don't be shy." All people featured will be entered into a draw to win the original 80 x 60 cm ink line-drawing. For more information, visit: www.tristanbristow.com It took five months to get this far. Inset:Tristan Bristow

Green-led council has achieved a lot in austere times Jason Kitcat Earlier this year we passed the two year point of our Green council administration’s four year term. So I was really proud to recently launch with colleagues our mid-term report showing what we’ve achieved in this time. Despite huge governmentimposed budget cuts of around 40% over four years, we’ve not only protected many of the poorest people in our city from the brunt of the coalition’s cuts, but also improved many services for those most in need. In fact we’ve completed more than half of what we pledged to do in our manifesto. And, overall, two-thirds of our pledges are done or in progress. Major achievements include our early introduction of the

Labour conference: Opportunity for all Nancy Platts I am delighted that Labour Party Conference is back in Brighton this year. Not just because Brighton is obviously the best place to host the conference, but also because it will bring a welcome boost to our local economy. The Labour conference attracts 10,000 visitors and they bring in around £15 million for local shops, hotels, pubs and restaurants. And, unlike the Greens, I'll be encouraging visitors to boost our local businesses and not boycott them! A party conference is a hectic mix of serious business and a fair bit of fun. That's why Brighton is such a great place to host it. After the business of the day, I really love to show off the city to friends who travel to conference from all over the country. Whether it's an amble through The Lanes, a great veggie meal in the North Laine, or a bag of chips on the beach, we've got so much to offer. Visit Brighton also do a great job of promoting the city to all the delegates. I'm particularly looking forward to Sunday lunch with US community organiser Arnie Graf. My heart is very much in grassroots campaigning and working with local people to achieve change; you may recall the very successful campaign we ran together to save Brighton Fire Station in 2009. A lot has changed since 2009. Under the Tory/Lib Dem coalition, lots of people are really feeling the squeeze. In Brighton, young people tell me it’s hard to find work, especially full-time jobs. Families tell me they can’t afford childcare to get back to work, because SureStart centres have closed and older people are worried about hospital services being cut - or moving to Haywards Heath, which is a long way for them to travel. Life is tough for many of us under this government, but while many people struggle to get by or are forced to choose between eating and heating their homes, the Lib Dems and Tories have given a tax break to millionaires. They have imposed the bedroom tax on people without offering them alternative accommodation. These will be just some of the big issues we'll be discussing throughout conference. I will be at the health debate on Wednesday and I am really excited that Gladys, our local party member

and NHS nurse, will be part of a panel session on stage speaking with shadow ministers about her experiences. This is part of my vision to bring national politics closer to people in Brighton. I am passionate about our NHS and keeping it in the public sector, with access for everyone and free at the point of use. It is the finest achievement of the Labour movement and I am determined to defend it for people living here. Local hospitals are facing £30m of cuts and waiting lists are going up. Here in Brighton, the local Kemptown and Peacehaven MP, Simon Kirby, voted for the Health and Social Care Bill that has wasted a staggering £2 billion on reorganising the NHS. I expect we'll hear some big news on health policy over the course of the week. I also hope we'll reaffirm Labour's commitment to opportunity. I'm hoping to hear policy news that will lead to an increase in training and job opportunities so we can invest in the future and reduce the deficit by growing our economy in a sustainable way. That will mean help for small businesses to create more jobs and also a clear strategy to tackle the deepening housing crisis the country faces. But conference isn't just about big speeches. In 2009, when it came to town and we were in office, I used it as an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the great work that Brighton and Hove organisations do. I introduced Fareshare (a charity that distributes unwanted food to people who need it rather than let it go to landfill) to Hilary Benn, the then secretary of state. Their staff were able to explain first-hand some of the difficulties of dealing with supermarket chains and persuading them to donate surplus stock. Hilary Benn made representations to the supermarket bosses and, in January 2010, Fareshare were included in the government's food strategy. A real local success. There's also the conference fringe. More than 500 smaller meetings with all kinds of speakers and events and it's here that the debate gets really lively. Lots of these are open to the public, they’re free and a great opportunity for local people to get involved. I will popping along to hear from Judith, another local party member, who will be speaking about her job as a social worker at the British Association of Social Workers fringe on Tuesday lunchtime. I’ll be speaking at four fringe meetings: Young Fabians, CND, Labour Representation Committee, and a public listening event with the Institute of Public Policy Research (IPPR). The IPPR event will focus on the pressures people are facing

– both social and economic – if you would like to take part, then come along to the Jubilee Library at 7.30pm on Tuesday evening and say hello.

Mindfulness Meditation Give yourself some of your time..

NEW COURSES STARTING FROM SEPT/OCT 2013

VISIT: WWW.IBECAME.ORG.UK with Elaine Leela

“With so much Doing in life... where are you finding the time to just BE?” YOU ARE UNIQUE, and what you do does matter. We are often so busy with giving our time to others, making sure we meet our obligations and responsibilities that we forget about ourselves. Or perhaps life changes have overwhelmed us and we sense that we don’t know ourselves any more? Mindfulness is a tool, a perspective that we can use to give ourselves the time to explore our experience. Mindfulness is a way of coming back to ourselves. It allows us to learn to experience the present moment in its fullness. Mindfulness can bring simplicity to the small things and challenges we may face. The aim of the programme is to learn new ways of being with our moods, emotions, thoughts and sensations through creating states of wellbeing that are lasting and reliable. We do this by noticing, focusing, and becoming aware of small changes in our thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations. Throughout the course you will focus on experiential, formal and informal mindfulness practices as a foundation for the cultivation of lifelong mental health and wellbeing. This experiential approach supports

the learning, strengthening and integration of a range of mindfulness based skills through the development and refinement of your internal resources. The benefits of Mindfulness • Mindfulness clarifies, creates and guides • Re-Connection with yourself and learning new ways of Being • New perspectives emerge and access to clarity deepens • You have the choice to respond skilfully • Self Knowledge/Self Awareness becomes an anchor in your decision making • Kindness/Self Compassion grows with the practices • Changing Mental Gears, choosing Being vs Doing • Clear communication with yourself and others New courses starting from Sept/Oct 2013.

Digital festival set to go out with a bang

Jon Norris As this year’s Brighton Digital Festival enters its fourth and final week, proceedings change pace. Gone are the huge conferences such as dConstruct and BrightonSEO. The last week is all about collaborations. Hackathons, workshops and discussion forums are the order of the day as this year's festival draws to a close. The largest event - or rather, events - of the week is Wired Sussex’s Open Studios programme, which sees member companies around Brighton and Hove opening their doors, giving the general public a look inside the engine room of some of the country’s most exciting digital and arts outfits. This year’s Open Studios schedule looks to be the best so far: the doors are swinging open at companies such as social business consultancy Nixon McInnes, recently voted one of the most

democratic workplaces in the world, and marketing agency Propellernet, recently named the best place to work in the whole of the United Kingdom. Everything from accountancy advice to hands-on programming workshops are on offer, all of them taking place in the last week of September. And all of them are free. Elsewhere this week, CityCamp returns with the goal of producing participant-led projects that help to make Brighton better as a city. It will be taking place at the Dream Factory, a collaboration space on Vine Street opened specifically for the festival, on Wdnesday, September 25. This week also sees the results of perhaps the most exciting and certainly most pertinent - hackathon of the festival: a 48hour sprint that sought to visualise the story of the global financial crisis and ongoing recovery.

Brightwave is one of the companies in the Open Studios programme

Artists, software developers, graphics designers and data scientists will used the latest data-visualisation techniques to give voice to the mountains of financial data that tell the story of an imploding global economy and the pained recovery through which we are all still living. On Saturday, September 21, the end products of the hackathon will be showcased at the University of Brighton. For more information about events in the last week of Brighton Digital Festival 2013, visit: www. brightondigitalfestival.co.uk. Jon Norris is a freelance writer and web editor at Crunch.co.uk

Modern feminism in good and diverse hands Amelia Charman Brighton Digital Festival’s Feminism 3.0 debate brought together five dynamic women at the The Dome Corn Exchange, including comedian Bridget Christie, 15-year-old blogger Lilinaz Evans, No More Page 3 campaigner Lucy-Anne Holmes, and Guardian columnist Suzanne Moore. These high-profile, thoughtprovoking women discussed everything from @everydaysexism to the recent spate of Internet trolling. The result was a night of unadulterated feminist

camaraderie, all hosted by New Statesman journalist Helen Lewis. Social media has had an undeniable effect on activism and has birthed a new wave of digital feminists. Yet the evening brought to light some of the questions still unanswered in the contemporary digital landscape, including how much power do "likes" or hashtags really hold? Is it all just "clicktivism"? And, most challengingly, is social media a feminist’s friend or foe? Lucy-Anne Holmes shared how online petition site Change.org and Twitter have played massive parts

in enabling her to gather support. Fellow panelist Lilinaz Evans also sided for social media, as she spoke about her successful Twitter Youth Feminist Army. The sold-out event was a strong reminder that modern feminism is in good (and diverse) hands. While social media brings new and murky challenges to the gender-equality debate, it’s clear it will continue to be a powerful medium to invoke change.

The veil: An assault on women’s rights Jean Calder The Guardian columnist, Timothy Garton Ash, once wrote that he couldn’t understand how anyone could be “threatened by a woman quietly going about her business in a veil”. The answer is that it is not the woman who poses the threat, but what her clothing represents. And I for one do feel fear. It’s the fear I experience when I am confronted with the trappings and practices of any fundamentalist patriarchal religion, because all such religious traditions deny equal rights to women - and not just those of their own faith. They threaten the rights of all women and those of future generations. I grew up under apartheid in

The veil signals inferiority and enforces deference a province of South Africa where African women remained perpetual minors, living under the control of their fathers, their husbands or their sons. One of the littleknown aspects of apartheid was how effectively white men used the subordination of such women to control and intimidate “their” white women. As a child, I heard white male relations comment freely that non-white men knew “how to treat their women”. Thus, I learned the useful lesson that to deny the rights of some women was to threaten the rights of all. I left South Africa 40 years ago and was stunned to discover how much my own conditions of life improved. The freedoms I enjoyed then, however, as an immigrant to

Britain, are under threat. In reality, they have for decades been denied to many immigrant women - and daughters born to them. Many such women live in communities in which men are allowed to control their movement, their education, their fertility, whom they may marry and whether they can work. They may be British citizens, but they have none of the freedoms permitted to the indigenous population. The veil is not a fashion choice, like a pair of jeans. Its function is, in almost all faiths, to signal inferiority, enforce deference, and contain female sexuality. Women’s hair is portrayed as a temptation to male lust. Men, however, are not required to wear a veil or blinkers. Rather, responsibility had been placed upon women to lower their gaze and cover themselves. It is their sexuality which is controlled, not that of males. Women of the Jewish, Christian and Islamic traditions have fought hard for the right not to wear the veil. So when I see women shrouded in full “Islamic” dress, or hear debate about a woman’s “right” to be covered in court or in a place of study - it seems as if the ghosts of the past have followed me. Forty years ago, few Muslim women wore even the headscarf, let alone full covering. Nowadays, the niqab is a frequent sight, despite the fact that the Koran requires women - and men - to dress only “modestly”. The columnist Yasmin AlibhaiBrown, one of many Muslims who campaign for progressive Islam in a secular Britain, writes with despair about what she calls the modern “re-covering of women”. She has said: “The niqab expunges the female Muslim presence from the landscape and hands the world over to men.” She writes: “These coverings are physical manifestations of the pernicious idea of women as carriers of Original Sin, whose

A woman wearing a niqab in Syria

faces or hair turn Muslim men into predators. In Denmark a Mufti said unveiled women ask for rape.... In truth, half naked women and veiled women are… both symbols of unhealthy sexual objectification”. Many British politicians, activists and journalists – obsessed by multiculturalism, fearful of appearing racist or Islamophobic or, in some cases, perhaps rather attracted by the vision of a society where modest women “know their place” - uncritically defend all cultural differences, even when these breach women’s most basic civil liberties. These individuals tell us to accept Muslim women’s “choice” to cover, but if their choice is real, why are we also warned that if

the burqa is banned women will not be allowed to study or leave the home? And why are small girls being forced into niqabs in deeply conservative religious schools which openly teach gender inequality? Successive governments have permitted a situation in which, in some communities, Saudi-funded Salafists dominate religious and social life; sharia courts dispense discriminatory family law with impunity; forced marriage is widespread; and many women have no control over their own fertility or even recourse against marital

rape. The Crown Prosecution Service has failed to prosecute a single case of female genital mutilation, and refuses to charge doctors with aborting female foetuses, on the obscene basis that social pressure placed on Asian mothers to produce sons threatens their mental health. The truth is Britain has sleepwalked into cultural and gender apartheid - and, in this season of political conferences, far from defending the burqa, we should demand of our leaders that they protect women’s right to life, to equality and to justice.

A special open day has been arranged by Varndean College to showcase the range of new facilities available to students and parents. A new 300-square-metre learning resource centre was recently opened, together with several new classrooms; a further 12 classrooms will be added over the next few months. Changing rooms and fitness suite facilities

have also been totally re-furbished. As well as giving everyone the opportunity to see the new facilities in action, the open day on Saturday, September 28, from 11am to 2pm - will allow students and their parents to meet and chat with teachers and college staff as well as picking up subject leaflets and information on courses available to help them decide which college suits them best.

Tarnished, by Julia Crouch

I once lived next door to a really, really obese man. He got fatter and fatter until he disappeared from view. I suspect that he then lived his life behind closed doors, unable to leave his flat. I never knew what happened to him - or what had made him this way. But I always wondered. In Tarnished, we meet a terrifyingly-obese aunt, who is indulged and fed by her mother. The protagonist, Peg, has been brought up by these women and has always felt that there was something missing in her memory, something a bit blurred around the edges. What it is, we don’t yet know. But we have a horrible feeling that we are going to find out. Julia Crouch has termed her genre “domestic noir” and what a brilliant term that is, summing up the terrifying world that she writes about. A normal suburban environment, turned inside out and

upside down, is far more terrifying than a grand gothic cathedral set in Europe. We all know the streets of a decaying seaside town. And once those secrets have been unearthed, those streets will never look the same again. Peg is unwillingly thrust into a dark world of horror with people that she thought she knew. And there is nothing scarier than that. The familiar turned into the strange and frightening is a world that none of us want to enter, but one that we simply adore reading about. Do read it. But whatever you do, don’t buy your rather plump aunt a box of chocolates. Trust me.

Unchaining motorists; unchaining minds The still-anonymous individuals - and businesses - behind the “Unchain the Brighton Motorist” newspaper advertisements have done the city a service. You can see the latest in the ongoing series of advertisements clearly marked as such - on page 12. Its contents are, of course, partisan - a one-sided and abbreviated argument about complex issues that should concern us all. It would certainly have been wiser if The Argus had clearly marked the full-page messages as “advertisement”. It may have been wiser not to have used knowingly or not - a font that the city council uses in its own communications (although it’s difficult to imagine anyone could have thought it was an official council advert). And it may have been wiser for everyone to accept that evidence is never black and white. It always generates also an ever-present shade of grey. But, all things considered, the real concerns of a significant section of our community is now taking part - formally or informally - in the consultation that, in fairness, the council is still undertaking. For the record: there are public exhibitions about the proposals for “phase 2 of the programme to introduce 20mph limits in the city”. They are at Hove Town Hall (September 26, 2pm to 7pm; September 27,10am to 5pm; and September 28, 9am to 1pm) and at Bartholomew House (September 23, noon to 5pm; September 24, 10am to 5pm; and September 25, 10am to 2pm). Moreover, you can have your say on plans to introduce the 20mph limit in nine areas by completing an online survey: http://bit.ly/18d46t7

The consultation closes on October 4. So why have those behind the advertisements done us all a service? Including the city’s three taxi companies, it was exclusively revealed yesterday by the newspaper that cashed their cheque. Because, as Chris Todd points out in a letter today, what we need is a public debate, informed by facts, which can help identify which roads should remain 30mph. There is no “right” answer to the question about whether or not a specific road should be 20mph or 30mph. In reality, even the question itself is not the right question. Perhaps a better question might be: How can we all be encouraged more often to obey the 30mph limits that currently exist? How can we all become more thoughtful, cautious drivers? 20mph limits may help answer these questions - in part, or in whole. But maybe, just maybe, we need to unchain not only our motorists, but also our minds. Corrections and clarifications A quotation from a letter to The Argus, about the Sussex newspaper’s publication of an anti-20mph advertisement, was misattributed in our report last week. The quotation was from a letter written by Anna Semlyen, of the 20’s Plenty For Us campaign, not from the letter written by Councillor Ian Davey, of the Green Party. We apologise for the error. Brighton & Hove Independent is committed to correcting any mistakes in its journalism, in a timely manner and with due prominence.

20mph limit will add to congestion Thank you for a paper that gives local news. Since my newsagent retired two years ago, I stopped having The Argus delivered. Since coming to power, the Green Party has done nothing for the older residents of the city Many elderly shoppers from the outskirts of city - who have cars

because of the non-existence of public transport from where they live - are put off shopping here because of exorbitant parking fees. The Green Party idea is that there should be no powered transport in the town, just cyclists. So are the shops going to have to resort to horse and carts for their

deliveries of stock? A 20mph limit will cause congestion on the main roads. Buses cause their own delays by having to queue for bus-stops in shopping areas, 20 mph will only add to the problem. Raymond Fletcher, High Street, Brighton

BHT offers advice without fear or favour Mike Holland was very generous in his praise for the work of BHT and our addiction services, in particular (page 13, September 13). He was less complimentary about our advice services, citing the understandable frustration of landlords, and the cost they incur, as a result of the representation we provide. Mike is right. We do advise tenants to stay put when action is taken against them. We do this because if a tenant was to move out, they will almost certainly be regarded as "intentionally homeless" and thus denied any assistance from the local authority. The solicitors and advisors at BHT's advice services are required to work in the best interests of the clients they represent, without fear or favour, with no regard to the impact their representation might have on the reputation of the organisation. Because the law is framed as it is, an adversarial relationship almost inevitably develops

between landlord and tenant. The government funding we receive to provide these services requires that a legal solution is sought, rather than what for many of us might appear to be a pragmatic, problem solving approach. We are grateful for the funding we receive from Brighton and Hove City Council, as this allows us to do some advice which is not premised on a legal intervention and solutions. The final point I would make to Mike is to say that it is not the fact that someone is on housing benefit that influences how we represent them. Our solicitors and advisors have to take this approach for anyone whose representation is paid for by legal aid. BHT is proud of these services and what we achieve through them. Without them we would have more people living on the streets of Brighton and Hove. Nikki Homewood, executive director, Brighton Housing Trust

Church deserves credit for Brighthelm Centre I read with interest Jason Kitcat's words in the Brighton & Hove Independent and, indeed, the report of the works of Brighthelm Centre are worthy and true (page 4, September 13). What I find lacking and almost insulting is that he made no mention of the fact that Brighthelm was built by - and at great cost to - the United Reform Church (URC), which persevered over many years for this centre to become a reality. Perhaps this is because that, as council leader, you have not bothered to research what you are writing about . Without the efforts, finance and vision of the United Reform Church, this building would not exist and by the way the building still belongs to them . Kenneth Smith (not a member of the URC), Lansdowne Place, Hove Jason Kitcat replies: "Thank you for your message. I'm sorry for your concern. I took extensive briefing from the Brighthelm Centre and visited the venue before writing the column. I also asked them to check it before it went to print. I had no intention of causing any disrespect to the URC. I have every respect and appreciation for their contribution to the city." Brighton & Hove Independent is interested in hearing your views.

Crocodile Meat

Our Crocodile meat is a by product of Crocodile leather and is a white meat that many people think is comparable to Chicken or Crab. This is also a high protein low fat option.

Unsurprisingly our Kangaroo meat comes from Australia, where they are seen as a nuisance. It has been approved by the Australian Heart Foundation because of the extremely low levels of fat and high levels of protein, iron, zinc and omega 3.

Wild Boar Meat

Wild Boar is a very lean and ﬂavoursome meat and as you would expect some similarities to that of domesticated pork products. We have selected our cuts from Australia as it consistently has a rice dense texture and is low in Fat.

Goat & Green Chilli Burgers.

Goat has a strong, gamey ﬂavour and although a red meat, Goat is leaner and contains less cholesterol and fat than both lamb and beef.

Venison burger,

Low in fat and cholesterol, High in nutrients like B vitamins, iron, and phosphorus

Water buffalo,

lean and tasty, water buffalo meat contains less than one-fourth the amount of fat and half of the cholesterol of beef. Cooked, it closely resembles (and tastes like) lightly marbled beef.

A dver tisement

Unchain the Brighton motorist! Join our campaign. The adverts in the Argus last week in support of motorists in Brighton & Hove certainly seem to have struck a chord with people. Since last Wednesday the conversation topic of motoring issues in the City has become more prevalent and pointed than ever before. No doubt this has been fuelled by extensive media interest and articles. Ours is a tourist city and these visitors make a vast contribution to the City’s economy. We need to be encouraging this trade because losing it will affect us all. Any fall in tourist numbers will lead to job losses in many areas, not least in hotel and catering. We are a diverse group of businesses including: Professional firms Solicitors and Accountants The city’s three main taxi companies Cafes, Bars and Restaurants Tourist attractions...

If this is the public view, it seems reasonable to ask the views of elected representatives on the points raised:

● Parking charges–including free Sunday parking ● Reduction of parking spaces ● Restriction of motorists’ road space ● Cost and availability of resident and trade parking permits ● A city wide 20mph speed limit

...and a variety of traders all concerned about the longterm impact of the present transport policy.

Please like us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/UnchainTheBrightonMotorist

As a group we are totally in favour of road safety measures, particularly at schools, hospitals, narrow residential streets and accident black spots.

Our aim is to have affordable parking for tourism, affordable traders’ permits and targeted road safety measures – speed limits, road engineering or whatever appropriate for safety but allowing for free movement around the City. ‘Unchain the Brighton Motorist’ only appeared as a name on Saturday but already seems to be attracting feedback on its Facebook and Twitter accounts and it seems to be all supportive.

Visit www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/20mph today and tell the council what you think either way. If you do not have access to the council website, then please call 01273 290000 and ask for the transport department who will be able to send you a consultation form.

Independent voices must confront “anti-car” dogma Mike Holland Just in case anyone is wondering where I stand in respect of the ongoing row between the Green administration and the rapidlygrowing group of dissenting citizens, let me be absolutely clear. I firmly believe the time to act is slipping rapidly away. Both Labour and the Conservatives seem content to sit back and let the Greens ruin our city, safe in the knowledge that they will have done so much damage by election time nobody will ever want them in again. That is simply not good enough, because by May 2015 the damage will be largely irreversible. The three main taxi companies have made a valiant stand along with a group of other businesses. I sincerely hope others will have the guts to join them and not hide anonymously behind the leaders. The anti-car, anti-tourist stance our administration has taken was

bound to be unpopular. Why they thought they could get away with it beggars belief; I would put it on a par with children pushing adults to see how far they can go. Well, it seems the adults are now about to let them know they have gone far enough. And not before time.

Whatever happens next, we must not allow ourselves to drift in the mire that our local governance has become. Like all naughty children,, they will stamp and throw tantrums for a bit. But eventually if the adults are firm enough, they will be forced to fall in line. Whatever happens next, we must not allow ourselves to drift in the mire that our local governance has become. We are plagued by a succession of low-achievers, who seem content to win clean-beach awards, or the best place in

England to park baby buggies, or some such nonsense. What I want to see is the politics taken completely out of local governance and for all councillors to be independent. They should simply be elected on the basis of being the best person to represent the best interests of a particular area, not because they support any political party. Let’s have a proper, strong, non-political elected mayor. Let’s have some good strong business people to lead the smattering of existing councillors who would be re-elected if it was thrown open to independents only. Let’s have strict criteria for the selection of councillors and have a diverse cross-section from all aspects of the business world, education, the NHS, and public service. We were the first city to elect a wacky Green council. Why not be the first city to elect the Brighton and Hove Independent City Council. Will it happen? Well it’s up to you really. Because it won’t happen if you sit on your hands. @RealMikeHolland

Taste of success for food and d Nick Mosley The cream of the city’s hospitality industry came together for the grand final of the annual Brighton & Hove Food and Drink Festival Awards. Launched in March 2013, with the support of the Montefiore Hospital, more than 1,800 people submitted a total of more than 11,000 nominations in 12 categories. A team of 22 professional judges then secretly sampled what was on offer at the top three in each category over the summer months. Hosted by Andrew Kay and Andrea Fox, with entertainment from Laura Nixon, the grand final was on Sunday evening in a crowded Live Food Show marquee of industry professionals and VIPs.

The Little Dieppe Trip: In Memory of Peter Avis Jean Calder Last weekend, 30 people crossed the channel to the French port of Dieppe to honour the memory of journalist Peter Avis who died aged 83 in December last year. Peter - who lived in Brighton and Dieppe, and was an unofficial ambassador for both communities - worked as a freelance contributor and subeditor for The Observer for several decades. At the time of his death, he still worked for the French newspaper L'Humanité. A committed left-wing activist, Peter believed passionately in the value of strong local newspapers. For more than 30 years, each September, Peter led the annual "Great Dieppe Trip" from Brighton to Dieppe. A motley group of bon viveurs, left-wingers and progressives, politicians, writers and artists came together to visit historic sites, eat well, drink a great deal and make friendly speeches. All loved - or, under Peter's influence, grew to love - Dieppe. And it is in no small part due to him that the artistic, business and other links between the two cities are now so close. He initiated

and helped organise the first Dieppe market that was held in Bartholemew Square. It’s a tribute to him that we now take "French markets" for granted. Peter was made a Citizen of Honour of Dieppe over 10 years ago. Within weeks of his death, the mayor of Dieppe, Sébastien Jumel, named a square in Dieppe after him at a ceremony attended by 200 family and friends. The council also placed a memorial bench in the square bearing his name. The plaque behind the bench reads "Journalist Anglais, Citoyon d' honneur de ville de la Dieppe". Last weekend’s trip was organised by his daughter, Siobhan Dillon, who decided that the tradition should be continued, at least once. Thirty people - including former mayor of Brighton, Jackie Lythell, and former Brighton Kemptown MP, Des Turner - came together to undertake the "Little Dieppe Trip". We met in ‘Place Peter Avis’, in the shadow of Dieppe's beautiful St Remy Church, next to the Rue du 19 Août (August 19) 1942 - a street that commemorates the disastrous Dieppe raid by allied troops

Siobhan Dillon, daughter of Peter Avis, led the memorial visit to Dieppe

during the Second World War. The visitors drank coffee in the square, as he had done, and posed for photographs by his memorial bench. That night, as Peter would have wanted, they banqueted, made speeches, read poems of tribute, and sang very badly. Siobhan said: “It was extremely moving for me to meet with so many friends in Dieppe this weekend. I've been coming here with my dad for the past 40 years,

since I was a few months old and will continue to come with my family for the next 40.

Brought to book: 20 of the be Laura Lockington 1

It’s quite extraordinary how many talented writers we have working and living in Brighton. The sea, of course, is an inspiration, as is the off-beat lifestyle. But mostly, it seems, it’s the cafes that they all like. Coffee and cake fuels those bestsellers. You can often spot the authors hunched over a laptop, muttering to themselves, making a flat white last all afternoon. I think it speaks volumes for the kindness of the cafe-owners in Brighton that they don’t chuck them out more often! The cake is an obvious perk - with Treacle & Co and Lark on Lowther being exceptional examples of the most delicious cake. I can vouch for the Bakewell Tart in the former and the chocolate gluten-free in the latter) The Queen of Brighton writers, Julie Burchill, makes a very valid point that Brighton is a great place to be an author, but not so good for being a journalist - being out of the schmoozing loop of the big smoke. But the vibrant literary scene more than makes up for it. Ace Stories, Rattle Tales, and The Bookish Supper Society have some amazing authors that come to read. And, of course, there is the fabulous City Reads festival that takes over the city every September. Sir Terry Pratchett and discworld hits fever pitch in Brighton, with his appearance at The Dome on September 29. There is an amazing local independent publisher here too, Myriad Editions, which nurtures home-grown talent. It’s making a name for itself with innovative and

exceptional books that showcase some wonderful Brighton talent. Brighton has always had a reputation for being a bit boho. And writers seem to love that. As author Sarah Rayner says, it was the only place that she could wear her sparkly leopard-skin coat without getting the odd look. A writer’s life can be feast or famine, and I cannot think of a better city to experience both of those financial states. The seafront is a great place to celebrate or commiserate with a rejected book or a massive advance from a publisher, either in a swanky bar or a bag of chips with friends on the beach. We’re blessed with some good bookshops, too, that are very supportive. City Books in Hove, Kemptown Bookshop, and the very knowledgeable and friendly Waterstones by the Clock Tower, which hosts a variety of events, and actively encourages local authors to communicate with book-buyers. The staff recommendations are always spot on, and who can resist the 3-for-2 offers? Brighton also has it’s very own Beach Hut Writers, where the best of all Brighton writers can be found. It’s a loose collective of authors that are very supportive and promote each other’s work. They also host events on "How to get published", which are always sold out. Which proves yet again that there is a wealth of talent in our city and that there are burgeoning writers a plenty. There’s probably one sitting next to you right now, tip-tapping on a laptop and sipping a flat white.

1) Julie Burchill “Brighton is a bad place to be a journalist - you're out of the schmoozing loop - but a really good place to write books. The pressure is off and the seafront is ideal for ruminating, both drunk and sober. My novels Sugar Rush and Sweet were both set in and inspired by Brighton. And although my next book Unchosen: Memoirs of a Philo-semite is obviously very different, my connection to Brighton's Jewish community has made it a pleasure to write.” Sugar Rush and Sweet (Young Picador) 2) Lizzie Enfield “A German publisher once asked what ‘The author lives in Brighton’ meant. He thought it was a euphemism. There are so many. My next-door neighbour is a writer. We discuss Amazon rankings and word-counts over the garden wall, while the neighbours mutter ‘Can you hear yourselves?’” Uncoupled (Headline) 3) Ben Hatch “What Durham was to coal-mining, Brighton now is to authors. Attracted by the sea, the creative vibe and cafes serving skinny lattes, there are thousands of us down here toiling tirelessly away over our keyboards, extracting stories from our imaginations in our pyjamas with more and more arriving almost daily.” Road to Rouen (Headline) 4) Laura Wilkinson “There’s nothing to beat a walk up to the Downs for overcoming sticky story problems. Whatever the season, it’s stunning; the wind clears my mind, the rolling hills rest my screen-sore eyes, and the distant roar of the A27 reminds me of real people with everyday desires and needs.” All of Me (Xcite)

11) Julia Crouch “I mostly work in a shed at the bottom of my Hanover garden. If ever I'm stuck, I walk into town or down to the beach and something always sparks off ideas for me. I mix it up by spending an hour or two in a café - Marwood or Ground are my favourites - with my laptop. Every other house here seems to contain a writer, so there's an instant community of like minded souls - something I find very important when I spend most of my time sitting on my own making stuff up.” Tarnished (Headline) 12) Alison MacLeod “Local publisher John Davies once dubbed Brighton the UK's ‘most poetic city’. Its poetry - and its power to inspire stories - lies in its opposites: in the loveliness of the sea light and in the city's dark undersides; in its charm and in its shabbiness; in its fragile seaside dream and in the grit of the London Road.’ Unexploded (Penguin)

13) Sarah Rayner “I moved from London to Seven Dials 10 years ago and I have this glittery leopard-skin coat and it was the ability to wear that and not be thought a nutter that drew me. There’s a non-judgmental air that means creative people seem to flourish here; the juxtaposition of town and country and sea is stimulating; and for all its itinerant population, there’s a sense of community, too.” The Other Half (Picador) 14) Kate Harrison “We chose to move to Brighton after a year living in Barcelona. We wanted a vibrant city by the sea, and I can’t imagine wanting to live anywhere else now. Every time I step out of the house, there’s so much to inspire any writer: the colour and the creativity, and the people. I’ve even learned to love the gulls. I also really appreciate the edginess of any seaside town. And this one’s no exception. I love the contrast between the glitz and the lights, and the darker side that the visitors don’t see. Plus, as winter approaches, the pubs and cafes are the most welcoming havens for writers.” The 5:2 Diet Book (Orion) 15) Bethan Roberts “There's something about living on the edge of the country, with all that sea and sky within reach, that makes Brighton irresistible. When you're in Brighton, you're not quite in England any more. It's a bit more open, a bit more exciting, a bit more dangerous. And all these things are good for life, and for work.” My Policeman ( Vintage) 16) Michael Harwood “Every morning, I take my dog, Reggie, for a brisk walk along the beach between the Sea Life Centre and the West Pier. While he sniffs every lamp-post and stray bit

of seaweed, I organise the day's writing in my head. By the time we get home, I'm ready to write and he's ready to sleep. I can’t imagine being able to do that anywhere else but Brighton.” The Manservant (Kensington) 17) Dorothy Koomson “Since I moved here, Brighton has become almost a character in its own right in most of my books. There are so many wonderful places and people I can weave into my stories. Plus, a walk on the seafront is the best way to unravel a difficult plot point.” The Flavours of Love (Quercus) 18) Martine McDonagh “Brighton's a great place to live if you're an author, because it offers numerous options for distracting yourself from writing. Two of my favourites are persuading friends to come and eat chocolate and beetroot cake in Treacle & Co and dodging decapitation by frisbee while cycling along the seafront bike path.” After Phoenix ( Myriad) 19) Sally O'Reilly “I love the fact that Brighton is off-centre, a bit weird. This is essential to writers. Eccentrics are normal here, you even see them in Café Nero. Authors are quite moody, so the seafront is handy for windswept, introspective walks. And Brighton is party town, which caters for our social moments.” Dark Aemilia ( Myriad) 20) Nina de la Mer “The vast array of spaces where you can write (cafés, Jubilee Library, the beach) makes living in Brighton a joy. I’m also lucky enough to be published by the brilliant local publisher, Myriad Editions, which means that tea, cake and advice are always on my doorstep.” Layla (Myriad )

Pubs in Brighton will slash their prices on Wednesday to show how much cheaper their drinks would be if the government cut the 20 per cent VAT imposed on bars and restaurants. Campaigners want similar treatment to supermarkets, which benefit from lower rates.

Seagulls fans will celebrate the club’s growing Spanish contingent when the Albion welcome Bolton Wanderers to The Amex on Saturday. The club’s head coach and a number of players are Spanish and fans have been encouraged to wear fancy dress to the match.

Charities in Brighton and Hove are bringing tens of millions of pounds into the local economy each year. A recent study funded by the city council suggests the total annual amount could be more than £90 million.

The merits of a campaign to encourage local employers to pay their staff a living wage have been debated by local business leaders. Scores of firms from across the city have signed up for the scheme, which has been widely praised, but it was argued this week that some firms could not afford to pay all staff £7.45 an hour.

Proposed changes to Withdean Sports Complex have upset the parents of would-be tennis stars. Plans to replace an indoor tennis court with a climbing wall have gone down badly, with claims the lack of decent facilities would stifle potential players’ progression.

Firefighters in Brighton will join a strike over pensions on Wednesday. Emergency cover will be available, but union members will down tools between noon and 4pm. Residents are reassured 999 calls will not go unanswered and should raise the alarm in the normal way.

The editor in charge of The Argus at the time of the Brighton bombing has died. Former colleagues paid tribute to David Williams, who was at the newspaper’s helm from 1978 until 1985. The award-winning journalist was widely praised for the paper’s coverage of the terrorist attack.

Brighton and Hove has the lowest rate of retired residents of anywhere in the county. Statistics released this week show 13.1 per cent of the total population of 273,369 are retired. That represents 35,692 people.

A powerchair football player from Brighton has been called up to play for his country. Matthew Francis stars for the Seagulls’ team and will join up with the England side for the first time early next month.

A selection of seeds taken from the gardens of the Royal Pavilion are being given away to green-fingered locals today (Friday). A stall outside the attraction’s main entrance will hand the packets out to passersby between 10am and 12.30pm in return for a small donation.

A giant hotel for bees is being planned for Stanmer Park to encourage more insects into the area. The seven-foot-high honeycomb-shaped design is the work of local article Mia Undewood and could be installed next year.

Bank of England chief economist to address Hove Business Association

The chief economist of the Bank of England is to speak to an audience of Hove businessmen and women. Spencer Dale, who is also a member of the bank’s monetary policy committee (MPC), which sets Britain’s official interest rate, will also answer questions at a business lunch. The event has been organised by the Hove Business Association and will take place at the Sussex County Cricket Ground. The association said: “He will be joined by Chris Piper, the agent for Central Southern England, and Andrew Holder, the deputy agent

for Central Southern England. “Spencer will be making some ‘off the record’ remarks on the outlook for the UK economy, as well as offering insights into monetary policy during lunch, which will then be followed by an opportunity to ask questions and offer feedback. “This is a unique opportunity to listen to, and then ask questions of, a member of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee, and get a better insight into the bank’s views. “There has never been a more important time to discuss the future of the UK economy with one of its

most important policymakers.” The association said: “One of the Bank of England’s two core purposes is monetary stability. “Monetary stability means stable prices – low inflation – and confidence in the currency. “Stable prices are defined by the government’s inflation target which the bank seeks to meet through the decisions taken by the Monetary Policy Committee. “To inform the MPC’s judgments and decisions on monetary policy, the bank has 12 agencies based around the UK. “Their primary role is to assess economic conditions affecting businesses in their area. “Each month the agencies hold a series of discussions with individual businesses, organisations and groups to assess business conditions." The lunch is from noon to 2.30pm on Friday, September 27, in the Boundary Rooms at the County Ground and costs £35.

A Sussex-based tanning shop, with a huge customer base, is leading the campaign to make sure that more salons in the area are complying with regulations designed to protect customers against skin cancer. The Sun Lounge, with a shop at St Aubyns in Hove, is urging salons in Sussex to stick to the legal limit in Britain for UV ray emissions of 0.3 watts per square metre - the equivalent of the midday sun in the Southern Mediterranean. Unfortunately, a recent investigation found that many salons in Brighton, Hove and Sussex are routinely flouting

regulations designed to protect customers. By setting sun beds dangerously high - in order to get an instant result for clients experts have warned that exposure to such high emission, such as 1.2 watts, or four times above the legal limit, could multiply the risk of developing skin cancer. New 0.3 tubes emit a lower burning ray and are a lot safer way to tan and any shops operating without these tubes are operating illegally according to trading standards officers. It is also important to stress that sun beds should be used only by people over 18.

Jemma Elizabeth Garrett, the owner of the Sun Lounge said: “These failures that have been found is quite shocking and very dangerous, so we make sure all our booths and sun beds comply with this new European standard and it will be great if all other salons did the same. For safety sake we urge you to ask your tanning shop if they are 0.3 compliant before using their services, it’s better to be safe than sorry.” To find out more about the best way of tanning, visit: www.greattan.co.uk.

City College commits to Brighton Living Wage

City College Brighton - which employs more than 700 people - has become the first big organisation in the education sector to commit to the Brighton Living Wage.

Disclosing the decision, Lynn Thackway, the college's prinicpal, said: “We feel that it’s essential that City College staff feel valued and supported and the Living Wage campaign does so much to

help ensure that hardworking people get a fair and reasonable income. This is why the College is proud to give this campaign our wholehearted backing." Campaigners are delighted by the move, which comes only a couple of weeks after Sussex Community NHS Trust signed up to a commitment to pay all staff at least the Brighton Living Wage, currently £7.45 an hour They calculate that a total of 724 people have so far received pay rises because of the success of the campaign, which is well ahead of schedule in reaching a milestone of 100 companies. Julia Chanteray, president of the Brighton and Hove Chamber of Commerce, which is spearheading the campaign locally, said “The more money people in Brighton and Hove earn, the more money they will have to spend in the city - even

Martlets men’s Noon Walk back for another year

Men across the city are signing up to take part in the fifth Martlets Noon Walk, a 13 mile sponsored walk along the beautiful Sussex coast on Sunday 13th October. The women of Brighton & Hove raised almost £100,000 for the Hospice at this year’s Midnight Walk, so now it’s time for the men of the city to show us what they can do. The walk is open to men and boys aged 12 or over and last year Chief Inspector, Simon Nelson completed the challenge with his two sons. He explained why they wanted to do it: "Having recovered

from cancer, I am one of the lucky ones but I knew of The Martlets and the dignity and support I could have found with them if I had needed it. “I had a great Dad's day out with my boys during the walk, when we had time to talk about all sorts of things while raising money for such an essential service. It was a real challenge for them and they enjoyed a real sense of achievement that will always stay with all three of us.” New for this year there is also a shorter route on offer so that everyone, whatever their fitness

level, can enjoy the atmosphere of the day. The Martlets organisers are hoping that it may encourage three generations of men to walk together. The walk starts at the County Cricket Ground in Hove and heads along the coast to Saltdean Lido for a refreshment pit stop before heading back to the Cricket Ground for a well-earned pint. Those doing the shorter route will turn around at the Brighton Pier. Well behaved dogs are also welcome and will get their own treat at the end of the day. The Martlets Hospice cares for people affected by terminal illness living in and around Brighton and Hove.

The second White House disaster movie of the year... White House Down (12A) Running time: 131 mins Director: Roland Emmerich Starring: Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Maggie Gyllenhaal

The very definition of big dumb fun, White House Down is a hugely enjoyable thriller that gets everything right that the similarly plotted Olympus Has Fallen got wrong, thanks to a witty script, a perfectly pitched directorial tone, thrilling set pieces and superb performances from Tatum and Foxx. tour just as heavily-armed US-based What’s it all about? terrorists attack the White House, Directed by Roland Emmerich under the leadership of newly (Independence Day, 2012), White retired security chief Walker (James House Down stars Channing Tatum Woods). as divorced security guard John While attempting to get back Cale, who takes his politically savvy to his daughter, John manages to 11 year old daughter Emily (Joey rescue President Sawyer (Jamie King) on a tour of the White House Foxx) and the pair attempt to turn when he visits for a job interview. the tables on the terrorists while With excruciatingly bad timing, trying to contact security agent John and Emily get separated on the Carol (Maggie Love Brighton-0410:Layout 1 12/9/13 13:18 Gyllenhaal) Page 1 in the

Pentagon. Meanwhile, Emily puts her own spanner in the works by posting video clips of the terrorists to Twitter and YouTube, which quickly make it onto the news and end up putting her in danger. The Good Tatum and Foxx make an appealing double act, sparking off each other in winning fashion and reacting to their situation in believable ways

that suggest both of their characters have watched Die Hard multiple times. King is equally good as Emily (her first scene with Foxx is priceless) and there’s enjoyable support from James Woods, Richard Jenkins (as Speaker Raphelson), Jason Clarke (as the lead terrorist) and Jimmi Simpson as the tech-savvy hacker-slash-terrorist charged with shutting down the White House’s security systems. Director Roland Emmerich knows a thing or two about action set-pieces (with a side order of explosions) and he doesn’t disappoint here, pulling off one ridiculously entertaining sequence after another; he even manages to include a hilarious car chase sequence with John and the terrorists driving round in circles on

the White House lawn. The Great Essentially, White House Down is the film that the similarly-plotted Olympus Has Fallen should have been. The key difference between the two (apart from the fact that White House Down boasts a lead who actually has charisma) is that Emmerich gets the tone exactly right throughout; the humour is genuinely laugh-out-loud funny and there’s a warmth and a likeability to these characters that was entirely missing from the earlier movie. Similarly, the film doesn’t allow itself to get bogged down in either flag-waving jingoism or sickly sentimentality, playing it admirably straight while still delivering the odd tongue-in-cheek moment. Worth seeing? White House Down is enormous fun, thanks to a sharply written script, exciting action sequences, a satisfying explosion count and terrific performances from a talented cast. Perfect Friday night entertainment.

Places I Eat Brighton With Claire Beveridge www.placesieatbrighton.com @PlacesIEatBtn

Sponsored by Sun Harvest

The Cow, 95-96 Dyke Road, Brighton BN1 3JE Website: www.thecowbrighton.co.uk Telephone: 01273 772370

The Cow nurtures a continental vibe Walking into The Cow, I halfexpected it to be another weary Brighton boozer in dire need of a facelift and a kick up the backside. How wrong I was! The Cow is on Dyke Road on the site of the old Tin Drum. Presenting itself as an excellent mix of laid-back Parisian café and trendy Brighton pub, I met Ben Murray and Adrian Geddes to discuss their work and vision for the establishment. Open since December 2012 on the site of the now sadlydefunct Tin Drum, The Cow has a clear vision: “to bridge the gap between a pub and a restaurant,” says Ben, the general manager, who also runs The Prince George on Trafalgar Street. Giving me the grand tour and showing off the fantastic use of space that helps create a wonderful entanglement of cafe, restaurant and pub culture, Ben mentioned that “you’ll often find couples enjoying a romantic meal alongside a group of friends having a great night out”. With a well-stocked island bar that includes more than 40 craft beers and a multitude of premium spirits to whet the whistle; there’s no question that the drinks and atmosphere on

offer are ideal for Seven Dials and the surrounding areas. As every Brighton and Hove resident knows, it takes more than a great decor and a nifty drinks selection to pull the punters in. Famed for having more restaurants per square mile than any other UK city, excluding London, the residents of Brighton and Hove want a high-class meal alongside their high-class drinks. This is where Adrian, the head chef, comes in. Having worked as a chef in Brighton and Hove for the past nine years, Adrian’s past credits include the prestigious Graze on Western Road, as well as Lion and Lobster and Blanche House. Quiet and unassuming, there is a fire in his eyes when he discusses his love for food. “I wanted to bring a continental vibe to The Cow and raise the bar,” Adrian says, “with a clear emphasis on presentation”. Adrian knows his stuff and his menu supports his ethos. Adrian makes everything from scratch and uses local meat heroes Brighton Sausage Co as the source for his flesh. Adrian also makes all the bread

products by hand, including the loaves that accompany The Cow’s exquisite and European-inspired sharing boards. “The food is going very well. Winter is going to be huge,” states a confident Ben. His confidence is wellplaced. Ben and Adrian are already being inundated for bookings every Sunday for their glorious roasts. Locally-sourced free-range meat with hearty helpings of seasonal vegetables and crispy roast potatoes, there is certainly competition for the best roast in town coming from The Cow. Breakfasts don’t go amiss either, with a plan to start serving pancake stacks, waffles, and bagels to the early-morning punters, while continuing their super-generous portions of a home-cooked full English. Vegetarians are welcome and meals can easily be adapted for the vegan and gluten-free among us. Ben and Adrian are acutely aware of the importance of using local produce and source as much of their ingredients as close to home as possible.

Ben shows his food trend awareness and eye for business by adding delectable burgers to his ever-expanding menu. The buns are handmade by Adrian and the meat is sourced straight from Brighton Sausage Co, then lovingly minced on site and topped with a variety of Stilton, bacon and cheddar cheese. The best part? If you miss the rush for a roast on Sunday, burgers are “2-4-1” between 7pm

and 10pm. A clear bargain. Having a chance to take some snaps of Ben and Adrian for this piece, I felt like we’d known each other for a while. This is the kind of atmosphere The Cow produces friendly, inviting and laid-back. Head there for an afternoon coffee, an after-work drink, a meal with friends and loved ones - and let this bovine beauty knock your socks off.

Recipe of the week: Easy fried squid with picked vegetables Adrian Geddes Head chef at The Cow This is a really simple and very tasty dish. Great as a starter, if you’re having a few friends over; it also works well as a main meal too. The squid is fried in oil. But, with the addition of pickled vegetables, the dish turns into a light and refreshing plate with tons of flavour and a little kick of spice. It serves four. For the squid • 300g fresh squid - use frozen if fresh isn’t available. • ½ pint of milk For the frying • 100g plain flour • 100g polenta flour (optional) • 2 tsp chilli powder • 2 tsp caraway seed • Pinch of sea salt

• Pinch of cracked pepper For the picked vegetables • 1 carrot • ½ cucumber • 1 red pepper • ½ red onion • ½ red chilli seeds removed • Fresh coriander • 50ml white wine vinegar • 50 g caster sugar • ½ lime • Pinch of salt • Pinch of pepper • Pinch of black onion seeds (optional) • Vegetable oil to fry, about a pint Method If you get fresh squid, ask the fishmonger to give it a clean up for you because it’s a bit of a mess to do at home. You will need to open the squid up so it is in a flat sheet. With your knife,

scrape down the inside to remove any sinew. Score the squid across with a sharp knife taking care not to cut through the squid. The scores should be nice and close together so you can get the flour mix into the grooves and the presentation is of a good finish. Then place the squid in milk; this will help with the coating of the flour. To make the coating, simply mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. For the picked vegetables, peel the carrot and once peeled just keep peeling away as this will make nice fine ribbons of vegetables. Do the same with the cucumber. Finely slice the pepper, red onion and the chilli. Now make the pickle mix: put the vinegar and sugar together and bring to a boil for two minutes. Pour over the vegetables when still hot as this will

slightly break down the carrot and give it a nicer finish. Leave the mix to chill for an hour or so. Then, when ready, finish with the coriander, onion seeds and salt and pepper and a good squeeze of lime to get that zesty, fresh finish. Now you are ready to fry the squid. Place the oil in a pan and heat to 180 degrees. A great tip is to test some squid just to check the seasoning and spice of the mix before you fry the rest! Drain the squid and dredge in the flour mix. Once the oil is hot, it will need to be turned down slightly. The squid needs about 30 seconds to a minute to cook. You need to do this in batches as if too much is put in the pan together the temperature will drop and will take too long and you will have soggy squid.

Have kitchen towel to hand to drain the squid on. This recipe is great because you can tweak it to your own personal tastes; you might want to add more chilli or more lime, its all up to you. I finish my dish with baby coriander which packs a nice fresh kick. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as the customers at The Cow do!

It costs £323 to look Do parents rely on a culture of reward? a million dollars It costs the average woman £323 to look ‘a million dollars’, a study has found. The figure emerged from a detailed study examining how much it costs the typical female to get that perfect outfit for an upcoming event. The study showed the biggest expense is a new dress coming in at £69.91, followed by a jacket at £66.77, and £51.40 on new shoes. It also emerged more than one in five women insist on buying everything new – even underwear and accessories. Furthermore two thirds of women said the more important an occasion, the more money they are willing to spend, with a family member’s wedding being the top reason to splash the cash. The poll was conducted by premium marketing specialist, Cream UK. A spokeswoman said: ”This research shows that women feel they need to spend a certain amount to look good for an important occasion. ”But everyone knows it isn’t necessarily about how much money you spend, it’s more about knowing what suits you and buying wisely. ”Just because a dress is expensive doesn’t necessarily mean it will look good.

”Consumers tend to stick with the same brands and retailers so it’s not surprising that women rule out certain shops when they are looking for a special outfit.” The study also found a lavish 25% of women said they believe in the ethos that the more you spend on clothes, the better you look. In fact, 15% of women said they would immediately dismiss certain shops as being ‘too cheap’. Bizarrely the amount women spend on clothes is determined by whether or not they like the person hosting an event. One in five females said they intentionally spent less on an outfit if they disliked people either attending or hosting an event. But one in ten said they would spend MORE to ensure they looked a million dollars. A third of women said they would really push the boat out if their partners ex-girlfriend was in attendance, and 36% would ‘go all out’ if a man they fancied was going to be there. The study also found that more than one in ten shoppers admitted to buying from certain stores just to be seen shopping there. And 75% said they tend to just stick to the same shops time after time.

We all know how hard it can be to always get your kids to do as you ask but a nationwide survey of parents reveals that almost two out of three mums and dads resort to rewarding their children in return for behaving properly and doing simple tasks– even brushing their teeth! The survey of 2,000 parents with children aged 1-10, commissioned to mark Colgate’s Oral Health Month, an annual initiative designed to raise awareness of oral health across the entire country, showed that nearly one in ten parents reward their children for cleaning their teeth. This statistic was matched by getting ready for school on time and being well behaved at a friend’s house, while one in five give rewards for eating all their dinner and almost two in ten parents reward children for tidying their room. The Colgate survey revealed that almost 1 in 3 parents used incentives varying from chocolate and sweets to more positive and inventive motivational methods, such as creating sticker charts. One in five parents even make teeth brushing routines more fun by singing a special tooth-brushing song. Psychologist and Professor of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire Dr Karen J Pine comments: “Reasoning with children to do as they’re told can be difficult especially when they do not understand the ‘why’ factor, but using sweets and chocolate

as rewards doesn’t always teach children the right behaviour and is also bad for their teeth. That’s why it’s great to see a significant number of parents using more inventive and beneficial reward systems for teeth cleaning, such as sticker charts, to encourage positive habits in children.” Most parents will sympathise with their peers when learning that four and five year olds appear to be the most difficult to motivate to get valuable tasks done, with 77% of parents of four year olds using a reward system to get them to do as they’re told and 37% of parents of five-year olds saying that they have, on occasion, let their children go to bed before they have brushed

their teeth in order to avoid a fight, compared with only 21% of parents of eight-year olds. The Colgate survey also highlighted that children are consuming sugary foods on a regular basis, with 25% drinking fizzy drinks at least once a day and 33% of children eating chocolate every day. Given that 40% of parents surveyed believe children’s milk teeth are less important than adult teeth, and only 34% admit to supervising the brushing of their children’s teeth for the dentist recommended 2 minutes, it is not surprising that the survey went on to reveal that by the age of 10, 25% of children have had at least one filling.

Horoscopes from Kimi

20th September - 26th September Aries 21 March – 20 April There may be a shock revelation this week involving a friend or family member but it doesn’t necessarily follow that it will be an unpleasant shock. But it will throw you! There is no need to be downhearted though as this is a good week for surprise invitations to exotic places and your love life is well favoured too. Taurus 21 April – 21 May This is a very creative week for you both at work and in your personal relationships. At work you will definitely be thinking outside of the box and what’s more it just might work, others think so anyway. And on the home front your loved ones have ideas that make this a very exciting and adventurous time. Enjoy! Gemini 22 May – 21 June You are not known for your organizational skills are you? But you do realize though that if you are to see

your projects through to completion some order is a necessity. At work there may be someone making romantic overtures or at the very least flirting with you. You may be suspicious of their motives, don’t be, they like you! Cancer 22 June – 22 July There are demands being made upon you this week, in terms of time and emotional support. This could involve someone young or vulnerable asking for help. You want to be there for them and know how much your input is appreciated but do take time to consider yourself too. You are no good to anyone if you are emotionally drained. Leo 23 July – 22 Aug Your nesting instinct gets even stronger this week and your mind is really focusing on long term commitment, whether to a relationship, career or locality. This settled frame of mind brings with it a greater physical freedom than you have felt for some

time. You have bundles of energy and oh how attractive that makes you appear to others! Virgo 23 Aug – 23 Sept This is a good week for building relationships at work. Listen with an open mind and you may find what you are hearing is not criticism but helpful advice that you can use to your career or financial advantage. Friendships of the romantic kind will blossom this week. In fact all friendships are going through a happy and relaxed phase. Libra 24 Sept – 23 Oct Your brain may feel a bit like mush this week as there is so much you are trying to think about, so many possibilities, opportunities and people you have to consider. Someone close to you wants clarification. Now would be a good time to give them it but make sure you know what it is you want first. Scorpio 24 Oct – 22 Nov

There is an awful lot going on in your life at the moment and an awful lot riding on decisions you make now. Way up all the facts before you make any big decision, do some homework! If someone from your past gets in touch this week ask yourself this question, is there a reason they are in the past? Sagittarius 23 Nov – 21 Dec This is a very good time for romantic relationships, friendships and familial relations. These relationships bring not excitement and adventure but peace, tranquility and fulfillment. And this feeling of peacefulness will spill over into other aspects of your life. You feel good and are able to tackle, with ease, work issues. What’s more you are looking pretty hot too! Capricorn 22 Dec – 20 Jan You’re in danger of burn out. Slow down or you may find yourself feeling tired and lethargic towards the end of the week. Someone near and dear to

you is trying very hard to let you know how much they care. Don’t take them for granted it will only take a kind word to show them it’s reciprocated! Aquarius 21 Jan – 19 Feb Opportunities are falling like apples from the tree this week. You see things with clarity you have never experienced before. You know what you want and what works for you and what does not. And at last you feel as though you have a measure of control over your life. Beware of a jealous colleague or acquaintance. Pisces 20 Feb – 20 March Don’t go buying anything expensive this week unless absolutely necessary. What difference will it make to wait a week or two? Focus your energy on work instead and this will bring financial rewards. You may find yourself ready to do battle with a work colleague over something you feel passionate about. Cut them some slack they’re having a difficult time!

Motors

MOT crucial for service skippers

More than one in three motorists (39%) on our roads are thinking of skipping their next service, according to research from Kwik Fit. This means that for nearly 13 million motorists, the MOT test could be the only time their vehicle undergoes any kind of safety inspection. Worryingly, one in ten (10%) UK motorists confessed they ‘never’ check their tyres and nearly one in seven (15%) admit they are currently experiencing a problem with their brakes but are not

actively looking to repair it. The findings reinforce the importance of the MOT test for road safety throughout the UK, especially in the month of September – the month which sees the highest number of MOTs than any other. September 2010 accounted for a sixth (17%) of the year’s new car sales, and these 335,246 cars will need their very first MOT before the end of the month. Roger Griggs, director of communications at Kwik

Fit, commented: “It is very concerning to find that so many motorists are thinking of skipping their next service – especially considering the number of drivers who don’t make their own checks on their car. Tyres, brakes and lights are all crucial to road safety, so it is vitally important that they are regularly checked, and not just left until the MOT is due.” Drivers in the South West are the most likely to skip their next service, where a staggering 45% admit they will do. This is double that of motorists in Scotland, where 22% say they will skip their next service – the lowest in the UK. Drivers who admit they will skip their service by region Position Region % Who admit they will skip next service 1. South West 45% 2. North West 44% 3. London 43% 4. East of England 42% 5. East Midlands 41% 6. Wales 40%

7. South East 36% 8. Yorkshire & Humberside 36% 9. North East 36% 10. West Midlands 34% 11. Scotland 22% September MOTs Kwik Fit’s analysis showed that of the cars sold in September 2010, which makes them ‘60 plates’, the brand that will see the most needing an MOT this month is Ford. Ford accounted for 14% of the total car sales in that month, followed by Vauxhall at 13% and Volkswagen at 7%. Indeed, the top ten that month accounted for 67% of all car sales. Manufacturer Total number sold in September 2010 Percentage of total car sales in September, and therefore those needing MOTs this month Ford 46389 14% Vauxhall 42235 13% Volkswagen 24701 7% BMW 18673 6% Peugeot 18309 5% Audi 15889 5% Nissan 15767 5%

Toyota 14636 4% Mercedes-Benz 14426 4% Renault 14225 4% Total sales of top 10 225250 67% Total sales of all cars 335246 Roger Griggs said: “We see more MOTs booked in September than any other month. This is because September is traditionally the busiest in terms of new car registrations. We’d encourage all motorists to check their vehicle regularly, whether brand new and from the ‘top 10’ or not – both for their safety and because failing to do so can result in a £1,000 fine.

With the ContiSportContact 5, Continental’s engineers have developed a tyre which is equally suitable for performance cars & SUVs and represents a significant progression on the successful ContiSportContact 3. With shorter braking distances in all weather conditions, excellent road grip, safety when cornering and reduced fuel consumption, the

It is an original equipment fitment across a range of models, including the latest Mercedes-Benz A-Class, C-Class and Vauxhall Insignia with further SUV fitments on the BMW X5 and X6.

To mark the 60th birthday of the legendary Alfa Romeo 1900 C52 ‘Disco Volante’, Touring Superleggera, a prestigious Milanese coachbuilding firm which has been designing and building vehicle bodywork since 1926, has created the 2013 edition of the Disco Volante with the official endorsement of Alfa Romeo. The Disco Volante is a twoseater Gran Turismo with a completely bespoke, hand-made carbon fibre and aluminium body underpinned by the stunning Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione coupé with its front-central mounted 4.7-litre V8 engine and transaxle rear drive with unmodified specifications. With the Touring Superleggera treatment the Alfa Disco Volante reaches a top speed of 180mph and accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.2 seconds. Ultra-exclusive, the Alfa Romeo Disco Volante is a very limited production vehicle built only to demand with each model requiring 4,000 hours of painstaking craftsmanship to complete. When it was revealed in 1952, the lightweight and ultraaerodynamic Alfa Romeo C52 'Disco Volante' was considered a design icon almost right from the

start. The unique basic design was even registered as ‘design patent’. Based on the Alfa Romeo 1900 C, the car received a new tubular chassis and a lightweight, striking and aerodynamicallyefficient aluminium body. The briefing at Carrozzeria Touring mentioned the need for a shape that was ‘insensitive to wind’. Initially aimed at sports car racing, the C52 Disco Volante is one of the best illustrations of the credo of Touring’s founder Felice Bianchi Anderloni “Il peso è il nemico, la resistenza dell'aria è l'ostacolo" (Weight is the enemy, air resistance the obstacle). The Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring celebrates the myth of the 1952 style icon. The new design blends innovation, emotion and aerodynamic properties into a timeless and essential shape. While some elements are inspired by the original dramatic form and proportions, the new body also quite futuristic with

its unusually wide front wings covering the wheels, and the thin rear end encapsulated in powerful shoulders. Inside, the 2013 Disco Volante continues the car’s design philosophy with a ‘science fiction’ feel including red LED interior light profiles. Aeronauticalinspired touches also feature on the dashboard, instruments and controls as exemplified by the seat adjustment lever. The bespoke leather hides for the upholstery were manufactured to match the exterior body shade and these are matched with black AlcantaraTM. Naturally, buyers can personalise the interior design to meet their preferences.

Sussex County

Date of Birth: 16 January 1962 Place of birth: Braintree Position: Striker

Known as Goldstone Gaz, Nelson was a popular figure among supporters during his four-year spell at the club. He was also the scorer of the goal believed by many fans as the best ever by an Albion player. During an away match with Leyton Orient, Nelson bamboozled five defenders before finding the net. Tragically, no video footage of the strike exists.

Conway targets extended spell on south coast Richard Morris He may not have been the loan signing most Brighton fans were expecting but Craig Conway is hoping for an extended spell on the south coast. The Cardiff City winger was recruited on a maximum 93-day long deal but revealed earlier this week that he could be playing for his long-term future after entering the final year of his deal with the Welsh outfit. Albion defensive lynchpin Matthew Upson joined in similar circumstances in the second half of last season and went on to join the Seagulls on a permanent basis during pre-season. And Scotland international Conway is targeting a similar end result after finding his route to the first team blocked in the Welsh capital. Conway, who can operate on either flank, clocked up 25 appearances during the Bluebirds title winning promotion campaign last term but managed just two goals and a single direct assist during the season. Left out of the Cardiff Premier League squad, Conway realised his immediate future lay either elsewhere or in the reserves, and a quick consultation with

international teammate Gordon Greer and former Albion winger Craig Noone convinced him Brighton was the right move. And earlier this week assistant Speaking shortly after arriving back forNathan the first Jones time since manager saidmarch, the in Sussex, Conway said: “First andGerard of would the back of be a spanking from Spurs. club not rushed into foremost I want to play.

Big match preview

Brighton looks to Barnes to fill Ulloa void Midfielder Andrew Crofts currently has two goals to his name

The Albion head into tomorrow’s match with Bolton Wanderers having successfully blunted the attacking intentions of two of the division’s big spending favourites for promotion. Clean sheets in successive games at Reading and Queens Park Rangers have provided further proof that the Seagulls possess one of the league’s meanest defensive units. In fact, including injury time, Oscar Garcia’s team have not conceded for 236 minutes – with Millwall’s solitary strike the only blemish on the side’s defensive slate in five games. Much of that is down to the form of Matthew Upson and Gordon Greer; who have now secured ten clean sheets in the 18 league matches they have started together (including last season’s unsuccessful play-off bid). And with Stephen Ward slotting in nicely in the left back slot vacated

by Wayne Bridge during the summer, the Albion have leaked just five goals in seven league outings so far this term. The problem though lies at the other end. Only Birmingham City, Yeovil and tomorrow’s visitors Bolton Wanderers have scored less in the Championship and with main goal-grabber Leo Ulloa suspended for a further two matches following his clumsy red card at Reading, Ashley Barnes remains the Seagulls only central striker. Ulloa’s four league goals this season represent 57 per cent of the Albion’s goals, with Barnes and midfielder Andrew Crofts the only other players to trouble the scorer in the league. Crofts’ impressive start to the season has seen the recently recalled Welsh international score twice, including the winner away at Birmingham City, and fans have been encouraged to see the former Norwich City star adding regular forward runs to his game. In fact, Crofts perhaps more than any other appears to be flourishing under Oscar’s new approach. The midfield man stuttered under Gus Poyet last season and often found his attacking instincts shackled by a more defensive role. This term he has, more often than not, been given responsibility to get ahead of the ball

and his all-action style has begun to bear fruit. Kazenga Lua Lua, who impressed in the draw at Reading, will be pushing for a recall to the starting line-up after making way for new signing Craig Conway for the trip to QPR. The left-wing flyer was likely rested in midweek after an exhaustive display in Berkshire but, after a game-changing introduction last time out at The Amex, supporters will be hopeful of seeing him take his place in a more positive line-up. Bruno is back in contention after a long absence, although Inigo Calderon should keep his place, while Kemy Agustien will want to be involved after a minor knock caused him to drop out of the midweek squad. In-form Keith Andrews cannot play under the conditions of his loan deal. Ashley Barnes will almost certainly continue in the lone striker slot after Brighton coach; Nathan Jones said the club would not be rushed into securing a loan striker. Brighton will be encouraged by the fact struggling Bolton have not kept a league clean sheet for a dozen matches and not been involved in a scoreless draw for 25. It is also nine matches since the Trotters last recorded a league win.
