Wow what great weather we have had! I hope you had a chance to get out into the garden and catch up with those things that just don’t seem to get done… We had a super time going down to the beach, having a meal out as well as spending time in our own garden for a change.

From photograhers to home care, conservatories and fashion - we have just the people for the job! Please say you found them inside The Southbourne Link. I love to hear that you and the advertisers are happy. There is of course our useful index on page 30 where you will find all of the advertisers and local clubs who are in the magazine.

May’s Gardening Tips From Paul Chatfield of Chatfield’s Garden & Property Services Trees and Shrubs All trees and shrubs can still be planted if in pots but make sure sat in a bucket of water until no bubbles. Remove faded flowers now.

Climbers and Wall-Plants Not much hard pruning can be done now, because the warmth is likely to be making vigorous growth, just tidy up dead bits.

shoots, leaving only the strongest ones, mulch them. Spray tree and soft fruits before blossom.

Vegetables Main crop potatoes must be planted now, early ones must be earthed up. Plant out sprouts, parsley and celery when hardened off, same with runner beans.

Roses The warmer days are likely to bring early attacks of aphids and also watch signs of black spot and mildew. Speak to a Nursery man on what to spray.

Greenhouse and Frame On sunny days greenhouse plants will need more air and water. Early in the month cucumbers, sweet corn and marrows may be sown for planting out next month.

Borders and Beds Weeds grow rapidly this time of year if not tackled soon can soon overwhelm the less cultivated plant. Still tackle weeds now, little and often is good.

House Plants Move plants from sunny window-sills just plenty of light, water well with a liquid feed at half the recommended strength about every two weeks.

Bulbs and Corms Remove faded flowers from all bulbs and if Summer bedding is going in lift all bulbs as soon as flowering is over.

Chatfield’s Garden & Property Services North 2, Sway Storage & Workshops Barrows Lane, Sway, Lymington Hants, SO41 6DD Tel: 01590 682828 Mobile: 07821 610923

Rock Gardens and pools Vacant places may still be filled with pot plants, with risk of icing almost over put new aquatic plants and divide old ones.

Lawns Weather permitting grass-cutting should be done once a week, not too low and feed with a dressing of organic fertiliser, if not already done.

Fruit Strawberries need ventilation whenever possible, remove surplus Raspberry

WAGGY TAILS RESCUE, is a registered charity based in Ferndown. They rescue and re-home dogs that have been abandoned, neglected or otherwise in need of a good home.

Waggy Tails Rescue now has an Animal Rescue Centre (ARC) which is a detached house at Canford Magna. If planning permission is granted we will build heated cabins for each dog, a vetinary clinic will be on site for the foster dogs as will 24 hour staff for their welfare. There is a field attached to the property where they can be exercised. Due to the isolation of the house there will be no dis r upti o n t o a ny o ne. T he p ri m a ry

purpose would be to take in emergency cases e.g. dogs who have outlived the 7 days in a pound & are about to be put to sleep or those who Social Services have asked Waggy Tails Rescue to help when their owner may have been taken ill or died leaving possibly a much loved pet in dreadful distress.

All this takes money — donations can be s e n t t o : W a g g y T a i ls R es c u e, 6 9 Cobham Road, Ferndown Industrial Estate, Wimborne, BH21 7QE, marking the envelope ARC Appeal.

We still desperately need home carers for the dogs if anyone can help please phone 01202 875000 — food & vet bills are paid for.

Southbourne Art Society We are a small friendly art society for artists of all abilities who meet 3rd Friday of the month from 2 – 4pm for critiques of members’ work.

Our programme also offers an annual 1 day workshop and an annual exhibition.

Visitors are most welcome for a small charge of £3.

Meeting venue: Immanuel United Reformed Church (small meeting room at rear) 120 Southbourne Road Southbourne.

Dorset’s double photographic triumph comes to Moors Valley County Park The national photography exhibition, Take a View – Landscape Photographer of the Year opens at East Dorset’s Moors Valley Country Park, near Ringwood on 28th May. Always a stunning show, this year’s exhibition is sure to generate strong local interest as the overall winning shot not only depicts a Dorset scene but was also taken by a Dorset photographer.

Gillingham’s Antony Spencer is this year’s Landscape Photographer of the Year. He was awarded the prestigious title for his winning shot ‘Winter Mist at Corfe Castle, Dorset’ which captures the early morning magic surrounding the castle ruins.

Antony is the fourth holder of this prestigious title and the first overall winner from Dorset. His winning photograph will now take pride of place at the Moors Valley Country Park exhibition, amongst 100 other winning and commended images. These were selected from thousands of entries to represent the very best landscape photography in the UK.

with a total prize fund of over £20,000, an exhibition at the National Theatre and publication of a full-colour book of the best entries.

“We are delighted that so many of this year’s photographs not only depict local scenes but have been taken by local photographers who know and love the area,” said Katie Davies, Countryside Interpretation Ranger at Moors Valley Country Park and Forest. “It’s impossible not to be impressed by such a wonderful collection of powerful images and the glorious landscape they represent – especially when so much of it is right on your doorstep!”

The exhibition is in the Visitor Centre at Moors Valley Country Park and Forest from 28th May – 10th July 2010. It can be seen between 9:00am and 5:00 pm daily and entrance is free although car parking charges do apply within the Park.

For more information call 01425 470721 or visit www.moors-valley.co.uk.

A true testament to local talent, the work of nine local photographers is included in the exhibition.

Other local images feature a misty sunrise on the river at Wareham, Colmer’s Hill at Symondsbury, The Blackmore Vale, the old pier at Swanage, offseason at West Bay, pylons in the Marshwood Vale and Buckland Rings near Lymington. Every photograph attests to the beauty of the local countryside, while many also reveal a new perspective on an iconic image.

“I have been photographing the beautiful county of Dorset for the last five years and even now the Dorset landscape inspires and excites me as much as ever,” said Antony. “I can't think of a more stunning area to live in and to be able to call home.

With such a diverse landscape and coastline, Dorset is up there with any other area in the country for jaw-dropping natural beauty.”

The 'Take a view' - Landscape Photographer of the Year competition, is the brainchild of Charlie Waite, internationally acclaimed landscape photographer and another Dorset resident. His pivotal role in regenerating interest in landscape photography includes the creation of this prestigious competition
