To get the best results light quality, direction and viewpoint are key, perhaps more important than composition. Light quality – A sunny day with bright blue-sky results in high contrast, a huge range between light and shade. Although our eyes can cope, camera sensors struggle, light coloured and white objects often being burned out with no detail. Overcast conditions, even light cloud cover, gives a much softer less contrasty light.

Wonder BRA Woman Beryl Skinner of Wimborne knew exactly who to call when she watched a BBC news item about bras being needed for women in developing countries. She called in Curves Wimborne where she and 380 other Wimborne Ladies meet to get fit on a regular basis. Juliet Beardsley, Owner of Curves in Wimborne realised that more help could be enlisted and contacted Curves HQ. BCR Global Textiles delivered ‘Bra Banks’ to each of the 250 Curves clubs in
18
the UK. During the month of October Curves collected thousands of bras!!! 5% were brand new and were sold through the Cancer Research Shops, 70% were sent on to women who were in need and 25% were used for re-cycling - fabric and fasteners etc. Beryl’s efforts led directly to a donation of £1,780 to Breast Cancer Care – from BraBank on behalf of Curves UK. For the finale – Wimborne Curves won the cup (!!) for collecting the most Bras in October – an amazing 1325 in a month‌. That is what you call Girl Power!!

Home & Garden Seasonal Lawn Advice from the “Lawn Ranger”
20
Now is the time to get the mower out of the shed and carry out the early spring jobs that will ensure your lawn gets the perfect start for the season. After the hardest winter for 30 years, many lawns are looking very poor and may require special treatments such as scarification, aeration, overseeding and chafer grub control as well as the regular weed, feed and moss control treatments. Many of these tasks can be done on a DIY basis but, for best results, why not contact a well equipped, professional lawn care specialist such as Lawn Ranger. >>>

Wine and Wisdom Fun Quiz Evening raises almost £2,000 for Wimborne In Bloom - Thanks to Barclays Sponsorship The 17th Annual Quiz, organised by Wimborne in Bloom at the Allendale Centre, raised £1987 thanks to £ for £ sponsorship of the Raffle by Barclays Bank Plc. Anthony Oliver, MBE, Chairman of Wimborne in Bloom said after the evening, “It was once again a truly Community Event with 41 Teams from local Organisations and Groups “pitting” their wits against each other for the chance to win the ECOCOMPOSTING SHIELD. Each team answered 8 rounds of questions on a variety of subjects including Murder Most Foul, Literature, Cathedrals and Famous People. There was also the Raffle and this is where we had the support from the Barclays Team, as the amount raised, £640 was doubled by their £ for £ scheme for voluntary organisations. We were very grateful for this additional support which resulted in such a splendid overall amount being raised. >>>

Mill Lane, Millstream
The River Allen flows over chalk for almost all of its length until it joins the Stour at Wimborne Minster. Formerly called the Wimborne the Allen is one of the ‘twin-bournes’, that give Wimborne Minster its name (the other being the Stour itself). Wimborne grew up between the Allen and the Stour. The Allen divides on its journey through the town creating a long thin island containing meadows known as ‘Mill Mead’ before they were built on. There are various local names for these bifurcations - the mill stream, the ‘Wim’ and East Brook. Three mills operated within a kilometre stretch. Town Mill, at the bottom of Mill Lane was a three storey brick building constructed in 1771, severely damaged by fire in 1952. It was a corn mill - as was Walford Mill a little further upstream converted into a craft centre by East Dorset District Council. Just above Canford Bridge was a paper mill known as Brig Mills (mill at the bridge). By 1780 paper making had been moved to Witchampton further upstream - closed in the 1980s.

Close and the River Allen In the early 1600s two fishermen made a living netting the rivers and The Fish Shambles, mentioned in David Popham’s ‘The Book of Wimborne’ suggests there was a fish market of some kind in the town. The Allen used to be an excellent river for game fishing but migratory salmon and resident trout are declining.

Your Garden
in association with
Unit 4, 13 Cobham Rd Ferndown Industrial Estate Wimborne Dorset BH21 7PE Tel: 01202 874207 Email: mail@sandandgravel.uk.com Now I find hellebores much more interesting than snowdrops: intriguing colours, patterns, flecks and ruffles, from white through pink to almost black. They are quite easy to grow, preferring slightly limy soils so it’s best to add some lime to the sort of acid soil we have in this area. They’re in flower for months but, boy, do they like to be fed. Organic matter is, as usual, the key, and garden compost, well-rotted manure, leaf mould and spent mushroom compost will all help to prevent the waterlogged soil the plants hate. Prepare the planting hole thoroughly as hellebores are very long-lasting and will develop into large and impressive clumps. It’s best to cut off their leaves before Christmas and dispose of them in the bin, this helps to prevent the spread of disease and shows off the flowers better. Cyclamen coum are another favourite and the display in the grounds of St Michael’s Church in Smugglers Lane, Colehill is worth a detour to admire. They are rarely seen in garden centres but there are a few around now, while they are in flower. Snap them up because they seed around generously, without being a nuisance, and are such a cheerful sight under trees and around deciduous shrubs. Barbara Gooch, The Hardy Plant Society.

Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung were among the first Psychologists who recognised that we all have different parts of our persona, which can influence the way we behave. Freud related to people wearing ‘masks’ in different situations in order to hide away or become something they are not in order to cope. Jung suggested that each of us has many different Archetypes associated with our personality, which can influence the way we react to situations and people in our lives. In my experience, most women share the same four basic Archetypes, that of Child, Victim, Saboteur and Prostitute. It is usually the notion of being related to a ‘Prostitute’ that gets the attention of most women! However, the Prostitute Archetype is not related to the sex industry. This Archetype relates to how much you are willing to sell of yourself, your time, morals, integrity, intellect, talents, ideas, your truth and your power, for the sake of physical security. Both men and women can have traits of this Archetype. You know that you are working within the shadow of the Prostitute when you find yourself saying ‘yes’ begrudgingly to people either at work or socially, when you are too scared to say ‘no’ because you fear the consequences. When you find that you stay in an unhealthy relationship because you are frightened of what you will loose if you leave. The Prostitute archetype embodies and tests the power of faith. If you have faith in yourself and your ability to cope, no one can buy you! Without this faith, however, you may find that eventually you can not turn down the price you are offered. Working with the Prostitute archetype can help you to walk away from situations that cost you too much of your time, energy, dignity etc. It can help you to gain the power to rescue yourself and strengthen your self esteem. Emotional Therapy combined with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can help you to understand why you do what you do. It differs from other forms of counselling in that rather than simply using the mind to analyse symptoms, it promotes healing by working through feelings. The creative tools which Emotional Therapists use makes it a gentle, fun and fast working therapy, suitable for children and adults alike. CBT will help to encourage new patterns of thinking, behaviour and personal strength, helping people to effectively cope with and enrich their lives.

Graham Parks, (Architect): Going along to meet people with positive attitudes to life and work is a great weekly energy boost. Martin Pate (Solicitor): We are members of both Wimborne and Bournemouth BNIs and would thoroughly recommend and local business to visit the BNI to see the benefits that the BNI can offer their business. Sandra Watson (Mortgage Advisor): The camaraderie and support are great. I do not relish early morning starts but on Wednesdays it is well worth while. Michael Betteridge (Lettings): BNI has brought me not only lots of business, which has paid for my membership, but has also introduced me to a whole new network of people and trades, without whom my business would have definitely not have grown as quickly as it has. Peter Rufus (Forever Living Products) Apart from excellent referrals I value the fact that I now have a group of people I trust that can provide many of those services or products that

are needed, without taking this risk with an unknown quantity. David Lamb (Electrician): Having been a member of Wimborne BNI for over 4 years, I have been impressed with the level of business received via other members which has easily covered membership costs. One referral from a member of another Chapter was worth over £5000! Toby Thorne (Plumber): I joined BNI and within six weeks it has paid for the whole year already. The regular referrals mean that I am busier than ever with good quality work. Giles Tomlinson (Cleaning Services): Great way to make friends and make money! http://www.bni-wimborne.co.uk

Love your pet… love your vet
Parasites… spring into action and pollen problems The warmer months are peak season for parasites and two of the most annoying are fleas and ticks! Fleas need little introduction to most pet owners! Adult fleas are 2-3mm in length and can be seen without magnification. These tiny wingless insects survive by feeding on your pet’s blood, as well as causing a multitude of problems including intense skin irritation, rashes, infection, hair loss and even anaemia and weakness. Fleas also play a major role in transmitting tapeworms in dogs and cats. Adult female fleas can lay in excess of 50 eggs per day meaning even a brief infestation can result in thousands of eggs being produced. These fall off your pet and are deposited around your home in carpets and bedding where they can lie dormant for up to a year or more before developing into adult fleas. Ticks tend to be a problem in the warmer months and commonly live in areas of heath land, moorland and woodland waiting to attach themselves to passing animals. Ticks feed on your pet’s blood, often for several days and can cause problems in two ways – firstly they can cause a tissue reaction at their site of attachment and secondly they can transmit serious diseases such as Lyme disease and Babesiosis. Pet owners should ensure year round treatment of fleas and ticks. Unfortunately, the warmer weather can also signal the start of the allergy season… pets can suffer too. What are the signs? Whilst pets aren’t likely to sneeze when confronted with a garden full of flowers, they can suffer from skin irritation. Common signs of allergy include sore red itchy skin, hair loss and inflamed ears or feet. Can allergies be cured? Unfortunately not, but they can be well managed by your vet. A simple blood test can reveal what your pet’s immune system is reacting to – it could be a tree, weed, flower pollen or combination of several allergens. The root cause of the problem is then tackled; whether that means changing your exercise route to avoid certain types of trees or keeping the lawn mown. Another option is desensitisation vaccines which work by injecting a weakened diluted allergen under the skin so that the immune system becomes accustomed to it. If your pet is prone to itching or losing hair it could be an allergy. Karen Pearce BSc (Hons) BVSc (Hons) MRCVS is a Vet and Partner at Hillside Veterinary Centre in Corfe Mullen.

Mid-April will see the staging in Poole of one of Britain’s largest exhibitions for model makers. Now a traditional event on the local events calendar, the model show is staged by the Poole Vikings Model Club, which is one of the country’s largest and most successful model-making groups. As ever the exhibition will feature club displays and traders from all over the British Isles. This year, modellers from as far afield as New Zealand are expected to attend. The Poole Vikings have connections with other modelling groups throughout the rest of the world, including Twinning links with similar associations in France and the Czech Republic, and several of the club’s members are national champions and winners of outstanding awards in competitions at foreign model shows. Exhibits at the show will include everything from aeroplanes to ships and dioramas. A major model competition is also a part of the event, while sellers of model kits, books and accessories are also present. Also in attendance will be local publisher The Minster Press, which recently launched a new series of aircraft books under the Plane Essentials label. These books have proved to be a great success, and at this year’s Poole show the Wimborne-based technical artist John Batchelor, and Poole-based aviation writer and historian Malcolm Lowe, both from Plane Essentials, will be present and available for book signings. The model show will be held at Parkstone Grammar School, Sopers Lane, Poole, on Saturday April 17th, from 10 a.m. onwards. Entrance for adults £2, OAPs and children £1, free car parking. This is a great value day out for all the family. Malcolm V. Lowe
