Spotlight On

Hot House Yoga Hot yoga is universally recognised as an excellent way to sweat out toxins from your body while performing the stretches and poses associated with yoga, suitable for both beginners as well as experienced followers. Hot House Yoga is based on Hatha Yoga postures practiced in a room heated to around 39 degrees. Classes are 60 minutes long consisting of 40 minutes of standing postures and 20 minutes of postures practiced on the floor. The sequence of postures was scientifically designed to systematically and progressively work every muscle, ligament, tendon and joint, moving fresh oxygenated blood around 100% of the body, into each and every organ and fibre, restoring all systems. Every posture prepares you for the next, and each proceeding posture gains from the previous one, resulting in incredible benefits that include improved posture, muscle & joint mobility, concentration, increased energy, and overall rejuvenation.

WHY THE HEAT? Practicing yoga in a heated room helps loosen the joints and improve the elasticity of the muscles, which allows for safer and deeper stretching. It also promotes sweating, resulting in an amazing detoxification. The heat also assists in weight loss and the lowering of anxiety. The great thing about Hot House Yoga is you don’t need to think. You just need to get into class and go with the flow, trying to be the best you can be. That’s Yoga. The studio is open 7 days a week, offers 17 classes and is truly suitable for all levels of fitness and flexibility. There is an introductory offer for all new starts of £20 for 7 consecutive days of classes. There is also an option to pay a drop-in price to try the class once and thereafter there are a number of packages on offer depending on how many times per week the client wishes to attend.

Ingredients:

18 x 28cm tray bake tin and line the base and sides with baking paper.

BROWNIE BASE • 150g dark chocolate, broken into pieces • 225g unsalted butter, diced • 350g light muscovado sugar • 4 medium eggs, beaten • 1 tsp vanilla extract • 225g plain flour

MOUSSE TOPPING • 100g milk chocolate, broken into pieces • 100ml double cream • 1 large egg, separated • Fresh raspberries, chocolate drops and mint sprigs, to decorate

heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and leave until melted. Remove from the heat and stir until smooth. Leave to cool for 10 minutes, then whisk in the sugar, eggs and vanilla extract.

3. Sift over the flour and fold into the chocolate mixture with a metal spoon. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and level the surface. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until just firm to the touch - it should still be a little squidgy in the centre. Leave to cool completely in the tin.

Summer Reads

There are few things better than relaxing on a sun lounger in the garden with a good book. If you’re looking for some inspiration for your summer reads, we have plenty to tempt you with this month.

Flawed – Cecelia Ahern A book which examines the idea of perfection, Flawed focuses on Celestine, who lives in a world where nothing less than perfection will be tolerated. Infractions come with a high penalty – offenders are branded as ‘flawed’ and become second class citizens, for life. Celestine knows how to play the game, but a moment of compassion towards one of the flawed has dire consequences. Celestine could now be branded herself. Bestselling author Cecelia Ahern has delivered another cracker. This one’s aimed at a young adult market, but definitely has crossover appeal. Best British Short Stories 2016 – edited by Nicholas Royle Now in its sixth year, this annual anthology brings together some of the best fiction from British writers published over the last 12 months. Editor Nicholas Royle has scoured the market, including other anthologies, magazines, newspapers and websites, to find this year’s selection. With a wide range of genres and voices, and a satisfying mix of authors, Best British Short Stories may well introduce you to a new favourite writer.

The Hanging Club – Tony Parsons There’s a band of vigilantes on the loose in London. With victims including a paedophile and a hate preacher, the killers are seen by many as heroes – delivering justice where the law has failed. But it’s DC Max Wolfe’s job to stop them. This is the third of Parsons’ books to feature DC Max Wolfe, and could well be his best yet. Ideal for fans of Lee Child and Patricia Cornwall, along with anyone else who loves a good crime novel, The Hanging Club will leave you questioning your own moral code. Gripping. My Name is Leon – Kit de Waal When nine year old Leon gets taken away from his mum, he thinks that’s as bad as it can get. But Leon’s little brother, Jake, is young enough to be adopted. Battling with grief for the loss of his brother, Leon finds an unlikely group of friends at his local allotments. However, this is the early eighties, racial tension is high and Leon is determined to find Jake, whatever the cost. This is one of those ‘just one more chapter’ books you’ll keep reading until the sun has gone down and the tears have left tracks down your cheeks.

The Museum of You – Carys Bray Single dad Darren Quinn’s priority is his daughter’s happiness. But what twelve year old Clover wants most is the one thing that causes Darren the most pain – the story of her mother. So Clover has decided that this summer she’ll find her own answers. Rich in description and dialogue, with endearing, believable characters, this is a very enjoyable book to while away those summer evenings. The Sudden Appearance of Hope – Claire North No one remembers Hope Ardern. Not her best friends, her parents, or the people she’s running from. Within a few seconds of encountering her, their memory is wiped clean. It’s as if she doesn’t exist. But they leave their impression on her. Now she’s on a personal mission to destroy a new computer program that’s turning people into ‘perfect’ versions of themselves, wiping their personalities in the process. A great book, which raises some serious questions about how far people will go in their quest for perfection.

Crail Festival 20 - 30 July 2016

From all accounts Crail Festival 2015 was an unqualified success. Once again, this year's objective is to match the very high standards set over so many years. The Festival Committee is quietly confident that this year's outstanding programme- Wednesday 20 July to Saturday 30 July- will have very broad appeal.

Heritage in Palermo By Solange Hando Lapped by the blue Tyrrhenian Sea, framed by mountains rising over 1,000 metres, Palermo is the bustling capital of the autonomous region of Sicily. Attracted by the natural harbour and strategic location, myriad civilisations landed on these shores and on its solitary headland, the iconic Mount Pellegrino has seen them all: Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Normans, Spanish to name just a few, all leaving their mark on a city which became one of the richest on the Mediterranean. Today Palermo remains an enticing mix of old and new, treelined avenues festooned in hibiscus and oleander, traditional street markets, hidden courtyards and breezy squares and narrow twisting lanes where laundry flaps on the balconies. The air smells of oranges and lemons and freshly-baked pizza, church bells mingle with the hooting of scooters and tuk-tuks and pony and traps rattle side by side. Bursting with colour, Palermo is above all a city of palaces, theatres and churches, contributing to Sicily’s generous share of UNESCO sites. In a capital once protected by four patron saints, the most venerated today is Saint Rosalia, who freed the people from the plague.

Churches pop up around every corner: austere or ornate, Norman, Renaissance, Baroque and more, but most endearing are the hidden chapels in the Vucciria neighbourhood, their gleaming interiors entirely covered in white stucco angels. Yet top of the list must be the Cathedral founded in the 12th century, boasting a magnificent doorway and royal tombs, a stunning Treasury and a rooftop walk, up 107 spiral steps but worth the effort for the panoramic view of the city bristling with domes, the sea and the surrounding hills. Meanwhile, far below, visitors head for Piazza Verdi to pose on the steps of the Teatro Massimo and gaze at its refined neoclassical façade flanked by two bronze lions. Dating back to the late19th century, it’s the third largest Opera House in Europe, justly renowned for its acoustics, and the place where the final scenes of the Godfather Part III were filmed in 1990. Stroll along the road and you come to another architectural gem, the Politeama Garibaldi Theatre; unlike Teatro Massimo, this was built for the common people who preferred operetta, plays, equestrian shows and the circus. Yet one of the theatre’s

greatest moments was the performance of Puccini’s opera La Bohème in 1896, applauded by a near delirious audience after a disappointing reception in Turin. Now home to the Sicilian Foundation Symphonic Orchestra, it dazzles visitors with its grand entrance and superb decorations, while on some guided tours you might see the original painted stage curtain weighing 450 kilos. As for Palermo’s palaces, most exotic are the Zisa and Cuba in Arabic style, set in the former pleasure grounds of the Norman kings, but most impressive is the Norman Palace, currently the seat of the Sicilian Regional Assembly. Following the Norman Conquest in 1072, the Arabic fortress was transformed into a sumptuous palace for the new Kings of Sicily, and as such is said to be the oldest royal residence in Europe. Beyond the 17th century façade, highlights include the splendid Ruggero Hall, named after Sicily’s first Norman King, and the 12th century Palatine Chapel. With its Norman architecture, its wooden ceiling in traditional Islamic style and its glittering Byzantine mosaics and dome, it exemplifies the rich blend of cultures which have shaped Palermo for over 1,000 years.

Growing Up, Not Growing Out:

Childhood Obesity Most parents would say their child’s health and life expectancy is vitally important. Yet nearly a third of all children in the UK are overweight or obese, potentially jeopardising their health and shortening their lifespan.

Salmon and Broccoli Quiche Ready in 1 hour 30 minutes, plus chilling and cooling

Serves 6

A rich and creamy quiche packed full of succulent salmon flakes and broccoli. Serve warm or cold with a crisp green leaf salad.

Ingredients:

Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use to line a 20cm loose-based flan tin (it should be at least 4cm deep). Trim off the excess pastry and prick the base all over with a fork. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/Gas 6. Place a baking sheet in the oven to heat up. Line the chilled pastry case with baking paper and baking beans. Place the flan tin on the baking sheet in the oven and bake blind for 15 minutes. Remove the paper and beans and bake for a further 5-6 minutes until the pastry is crisp and pale golden. Reduce the oven temperature to 190C/170C fan/Gas 5.

Meanwhile, place the salmon fillets in a deep frying pan and cover with water. Bring to the boil then simmer gently for 56 minutes until just cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and leave until cold. Roughly flake the salmon discarding any skin and bones. Steam the broccoli florets for 1-2 minutes until almost tender.

Place the flaked salmon and broccoli in the pastry case. Whisk the eggs in large jug then whisk in the double cream and milk. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Gently pour the egg mixture over the filling then scatter over the grated cheese. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until the filling is set and golden brown. Serve warm or cold.

• 250g shortcrust pastry • 300g salmon fillets • 200g small broccoli florets • 4 large eggs • 250ml double cream • 100ml milk • Salt and freshly ground black pepper • 50g Cheddar cheese, finely grated

TIP Replace the salmon with flaked smoked mackerel for a change of flavour and add a handful of fresh chopped dill or parsley to the egg mixture.

Beauty

Summer Lovin’ By Kate Duggan

It’s been a very long time coming, but summer is finally here. I’ve dusted off the sunnies and dug out my sandals, but couldn’t resist investing in a few new goodies… A new lip gloss is always on my summer shopping list. This year I’ve gone for Neal’s Yard’s organic Lip Gloss in Fig, £9.50. It’s rich in seed and fruit oils, so nourishes lips while giving them a decent burst of colour. It’s easy to apply and also has a subtle orange flavour and scent. Being a gloss, the colour doesn’t last that long, but it does leave my lips feeling moisturised.

more, it’s housed in a cute metallic clutch bag, which you can detach from the palette and use on its own. A bargain at just £15. Now I am not normally a fan of nettles. I seem to be forever getting stung by them when retrieving a football out of the long grass or trailing after my dog through the woods. But they do have some good qualities. Nettles are packed with amino acids and proteins, so can help to strengthen your hair. You can make an effective hair rinse by steeping leaves in hot water, but if that sounds like a bit too much effort, try Paul Mitchell’s Super Strong System. This three-step hair care range uses nettles and other botanical ingredients to strengthen hair, add

Travelling Abroad This Year? What’s The Best Way To Spend Your Money? By Ann Haldon It used to be a simple choice between traveller’s cheques or cash, but now there’s a variety of cards that offer more convenience and security when spending money abroad. In fact there are so many, it can be a bit of a minefield when trying to choose the right one. So here’s a brief explanation of the choices available for this summer’s getaway, plus the pros and cons of each. TRAVELLER’S CHEQUES Good old-fashioned traveller’s cheques can be useful as a backup. Fee levels and exchange rates vary greatly according to the country you’re in and also between individual banks. Pros • Handy if you don’t want to carry large amounts of cash around, or are worried about using cards abroad. • Can be replaced within 24 hours if they’re lost or stolen. • They can be used as cash in some outlets, and you get change in the local currency. Cons • Exchange rates can fluctuate widely, and are generally poor when compared with other payment methods. • You pay a fee when you buy them, and also commission when they’re exchanged. It’s a good idea to make a separate note of each cheque number as soon as you get them - if they’re lost or stolen, it’s easier to arrange replacements. PREPAID CARDS Some of the newer prepaid cards offer very competitive exchange rates, as well as extra features such as a smartphone app. A word of warning though - there have been problems accessing money abroad using some prepaid cards, as it’s not always made clear that the first time you use the card, it has to be at a cash point. Many people have also found they get ‘Pin Unrecognised’ messages, even though they’re using

the correct number. If you withdraw too much cash you’ll get a 2% service charge, and support is only provided during UK business hours. Pros • They’re pre-loaded, so it’s easier to budget and you can lock in a good exchange rate. • Convenient and easy to use, but check the rules carefully. • Widely accepted abroad. • Safer than carrying lots of cash. Cons • If the card is lost or stolen you may be charged for a replacement. • Some providers charge high fees. • Potential fees include application, transaction and even an inactivity charge if you don’t use the card for a while. The main message here is to carefully check all the small print before you sign up for a prepaid card. CREDIT CARDS Still one of the most popular ways to spend money abroad, credit cards give you interest-free credit as well as valuable consumer protection. You also have the same fraud protection as in the UK, so if the card is lost or stolen you should be covered. Some providers don’t charge for transactions abroad (as long as you don’t withdraw cash), so it’s well worth researching these rather than using your everyday credit card.

Pros • Some protection for goods over £100 via Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. • They’re safe and secure, but make sure payment is taken in front of you. • Interest-free credit on your holiday spend. Cons • There’s a risk of fraud or ‘cloning’ if the card is taken out of sight when you pay. • If you withdraw cash you’ll be charged daily interest. • Some shops have a minimum transaction amount for using credit cards.

7R DGYHUWLVH LQ WKH 7KH (GLWLRQ FDOO

Finding a credit card that’s geared up for use abroad is key - you’ll have lower or no fees, and six weeks to pay off your spending interest-free. DEBIT CARDS You can use a debit card to pay for goods or withdraw cash abroad, but you’ll probably have to pay a non-sterling transaction fee. There’s no daily interest on cash withdrawals, but you might be charged a cash machine transaction fee each time you use one. Pros • Easily blocked if the card is lost or stolen. • Chip and pin protection. Cons • No consumer protection as with credit cards. • Charges can quickly add up if you withdraw cash regularly. For the sake of safety and simplicity, you might want to pay using the local currency rather than in sterling because of the huge disparity in exchange rates. CASH Although it’s not a good idea to carry lots of cash with you, you’ll need to pay for some smaller items this way, and organising it before you go will save

money. Bear in mind though, that insurance policies only cover around £200 to £500 of cash on average. Pros • You can shop around for a good exchange rate before you go. • Can be used anywhere. Cons • May not be fully covered by your insurance policy. • Not as safe as carrying a plastic card. It’s a good idea to take some cash as backup for your plastic card(s) and traveller’s cheques, and buying it well before you leave means you can track down the best rates of exchange.

Gardening

Water, Water Everywhere By Pippa Greenwood www.pippagreenwood.com

With summer well under way, many gardens are now feeling the need for a bit more water than the rain is giving them - it is hard to believe that not long ago all the plants were suffering due to excess rainfall and waterlogged soil. Now it is important to forget those wet winter days and concentrate on doing everything you can to keep your garden looking good, despite increased temperatures and soil that is drier by the minute. There’s no doubt that you will need to do some watering, but how can you minimise the amount you apply, make best use of what you’ve got and still have a goodlooking and productive garden? If possible, avoid making new plantings right now. It would be far better to wait until the autumn because, if planted out now, most trees, shrubs and climbers will find it harder to get properly established and are more likely to suffer serious setbacks too. However, if you do have any planting that you really can’t avoid, then make sure that you improve the soil texture before you begin. Dig and fork in plenty of garden compost, well-rotted manure or other bulky organic matter so that the soil is better equipped to retain moisture. This will make sandy soil hold water more effectively but you will also find it helps to decrease the chances of clay soil cracking. It may be hard work but it will make life a lot easier for the plants, and should also mean that you have to spend far less time watering later on. It is never too late to mulch: it might be high

summer but it is still well worthwhile mulching beds, borders and your vegetable plot. Mulching is often thought to be something you have to do early in the year, but provided the soil is moist when you put the mulch in place, it will still serve you well. The mulch needs to be 2” - 3” (5 - 7.5 cm) deep and you can use shredded composted bark, composted chipped bark, cocoa shells or many of the numerous pebbles, shingles and so forth which are now available. If the soil is well watered before the mulch goes on, then it will really help to keep moisture in the soil and, as all the materials I’ve suggested will let plenty of rain through, when it does rain the plants will still benefit. Applying a good mulch will also help to keep down weeds, which will not only save you time but also prevent these thirsty plants from taking up valuable soil moisture. In drier areas of your garden, try to use plants which are particularly drought tolerant. Those with silvery or grey foliage such as the lavenders, Sedums (ice plants), rock roses (Helianthemum), rosemary and Convolvulus cneorum all tend to thrive in dry conditions, and are also more likely to do quite well if planted now, as compared to an average herbaceous or woody plant. Make sure that you make the most of any rain that does fall by fitting a water diverter to the drain pipe which takes water from the guttering from your greenhouse, house, conservatory or garage. This can then divert the water straight

7R DGYHUWLVH LQ WKH 7KH (GLWLRQ FDOO

into one or more water butts when it does rain. You can also fit a water diverter to the downpipe which takes water from your bath, hand basin or even the kitchen sink. Normal amounts of shampoo, bubble bath and washing up liquid should pose no threats to plants, and these detergents may help with pest problems such as greenfly. When you are watering, always make sure that you do this in the evening or extremely early in the morning, unless there’s no alternative. Watering at these times of day will drastically reduce the amount of water lost through evaporation, and also means that there is far less chance of the foliage or flowers getting scorched - as can happen if they are wetted in bright sunlight. Where possible use a watering can or hose with a gentle nozzle attachment and water only the

areas where the water is needed. If the soil is very dry before you start to water, then sprinkle the surface gently with a light drizzling of water and return again a few minutes later - you will find that the water sinks in and penetrates down to the roots much more effectively. Excessive watering on a very dry surface, particularly one which has become ‘capped’, is likely to lead to a lot of run off and hence wastage.

The Greater Outdoors The gadgets that make Summer sizzle

Let’s be optimistic and pray for a long hot summer. What gadgets can help your summer really sizzle? From making parties more entertaining to ensuring your barbecued food is full of flavour and not food poisoning, gadgets are here to help you make the most of every second of summer. One of the big trends this year is solar power - not because Britain has suddenly got sunnier, but because the combination of more efficient solar technology and lowpower technology such as LED lights means solar gadgets work properly, even when it’s a bit dull. You’ll have seen endless solar lights and spotlights, but how about solar-powered water fountains, bird baths or other water features? You can spend from around £50 to several hundred pounds depending on how complex the feature is and what it’s made of: cheap ones tend to be made of resin, while natural stone takes you into the hundreds. Solar power is also very good for charging phones, which is handy if you’ve embraced streaming music and use your smartphone to play sounds in the garden. It pays to shop around: for example the PowerBee Executive charger, which has an RRP of £39.99, is widely

available for as little as £13.99. While you’re at it, you could buy yourself a solar powered wireless speaker too: the Gemtune Kinna speaker is £40, while the larger and longer range Jabadoo wireless outdoor solar speaker is £99. Even if you don’t go solar, a wireless speaker is an excellent investment for summertime sounds, as it means you don’t need to keep your music close to a power point. For many of us summer means outdoor cooking, and of course there are plenty of products designed just for us. The Looftlighter (£48) and BBQ Dragon (£46) use super-heated air to get your barbecue started quickly, while the iGrill Mini (£43) is a Bluetooth thermometer that tells your phone when your food is ready. If money’s no object, the SmartGrill offers voice control, recipe apps and notifications on your phone or tablet. The bad news: the smallest one is around £1,400 and the most expensive model, the 42-inch, is nearly £7,000. Gadgets aren’t just about grilling, and they don’t all require a second mortgage either. Automatic wine coolers cost from around £50 and can chill a bottle of white wine in less than 10 minutes, while the

lower-tech bottle wraps sit in the fridge until you need them, chill bottles in around 15 minutes and cost £9.99. Beer drinkers can join in too: the Xcellent Global Beer Chiller Chilling Sticks, stainless steel rods you freeze and then stick in your beer bottles, are £9.99 for two. The chillers work in some soft drink bottles too. We started off with optimism, but let’s add some realism too: the British weather being what it is, it’s a good idea to have early warning of incoming bad weather. An outdoor weather station provides just that, and you can choose from traditional clock designs with integrated barometers and thermometers from around £25 or go high-tech with a wireless weather station, which can cost from around £25 to several hundred pounds depending on the features you want to have. Or you could always go on Amazon and buy the Amscan PPP GB Umbrella Hat, which offers the protection of an umbrella with the hands-free convenience of a hat for just £2.99.

Motoring

MINI Countryman v Skoda Yeti by James Baggott All MINIs have a distinctive and instantly recognisable look to them, and with the Countryman range, it carries this identifiable image into a stockier frame to give you more space and practicality. The stylish bodywork helps to make the Countryman a tantalising option in the CUV sector and with great additions and features to match, it’s difficult to see why you wouldn’t choose it. However, it has competition from Skoda’s Yeti, a CUV similar in size and price and both cars have their good elements. For starters, both models have had recent redesigns to create more space and alter their looks to be more modern and up-to-date. It has to be said that the Countryman certainly looks better than the Yeti, with the distinguishing features of the MINI range, such as the shape, the headlights and front grille, to make it truly stand out on the road. The size of both models also make them very practical, with the smaller Countryman offering 350 litres of space in the boot with the seats up, whilst the Yeti has only 66 litres more in a car 20cm longer and 10cm taller. This means you can get more for your money space-wise in the Countryman, especially as the range starts off cheaper than the Skoda. Customisability has also been a recent appeal of the MINI market, and with the Countryman this is no exception. With MINI’s design additions that can be fitted to the whole range, you can personalise your Countryman as much as you wish. Also you can fit satellite navigation,

stereo system, leather trim and ‘Run-Flat’ tyres to your model; great options that can be added to any of the range. Good options aren’t as easy to come by on the Yeti, as the better choices to fit are only available further up the Yeti model range, whilst almost all are compatible with every Countryman model. To compete with the Yeti’s off-road capabilities in the Yeti Outdoor and more expensive models, MINI offers the ‘All-4’ all-wheel drive system throughout the class. With a higher ride height and great grip on offer, the Countryman All-4 system will give you confidence both on and off road, with only a small premium on top of the two-wheel drive versions. The Yeti’s base model is fitted with a 1.2-litre TSI petrol engine producing 110hp, whilst the 1.6-litre in the One produces just 98hp. This doesn’t compromise much in speed with only a marginal difference in acceleration. Overall, with a wider variety of vehicle and equipment options, value for money and great 4x4 system, the MINI Countryman is the better option of the two, and with the great looking bodywork to encase you, why wouldn’t you want to drive it? The MINI Countryman is available from £17,105 for the One Countryman, with the top of the range 218hp John Cooper Works All-4 starting at £28,985. For more information on the Countryman or any other models in the MINI range, contact your nearest MINI dealership.

Remember the intense concentration as you filled in the blank spaces with your favourite shades of yellow, red, purple, green and blue? Now fast-forward to the present day, when hightech gadgets and gizmos allow us to create sophisticated and brightly coloured designs with just a few mouse clicks. Such innovations should have consigned the humble crayon to the dustbin of history, so it’s amazing to learn that in the second decade of the 21st century one of the most popular hobbies is adult colouring. It has become a global phenomenon, spreading to countries as diverse as Brazil and New Zealand. In fact the interest is so great that the world’s largest wooden pencil manufacturer, Faber-Castell, has been forced to increase shifts at its German factory in order to keep up with demand. Printers and booksellers have also seen a stratospheric rise in the popularity of colouring books created for the adult market. Millie Marotta’s Animal Kingdom, Johanna Basford’s Secret Garden (now translated into 14 different languages) and Emma Farrarons’ The Mindfulness Colouring Book feature high on the UK’s bestseller lists. Mindfulness, with its emphasis on being aware of the present moment, fits particularly well with this hobby because colouring is essentially a repetitive, undemanding activity that can be used to focus the mind. Colourists claim that their hobby can lead to a calmer, almost meditative frame of mind and this view is supported by clinical psychologist

Dr David Holmes: “With our workaholic culture, we

spend most of our lives in ‘beta mode’, which is when we’re alert, problem-solving, decisionmaking. By actively altering the preponderance of certain brain patterns, you can shift into ‘alpha mode’, which is more like the state of mind we have as children. Meditation and similar techniques require learning and practice, whereas anyone can just drop into colouring-in.” Colouring may seem like a solitary pastime but it can also become a social activity: in recent years colouring clubs and parties have proved popular, particularly in America and France. The Ladies Coloring Club is a Facebook Group based in the US which links to groups around the world. Alternatively you could start your own group like 38-year-old Suzanne Parsonage from Bristol, who launched a colourists group from her local pub. Many local libraries also host adult colouring sessions. If you are eager to try colouring for yourself but don’t want to invest in a book of illustrations just yet, go online and download some free printable pages. You’ll find some great library printables at www.pinterest.com that will help you decide whether adult colouring is for you. If you are feeling that this hobby is a little too childish, you’ll be relieved to hear that a recent article in Director magazine identified a growing trend amongst business leaders who have taken up colouring in order to alleviate stress. So grab a box of crayons or felt-tips and make a start. It seems there’s every reason to add a little colour to your everyday life - and all you need to worry about is keeping within the lines!

Home & Interiors

Storage Solutions For Every Room By Katherine Sorrell Well-designed storage makes an enormous difference to our homes, so interiors expert Katherine Sorrell takes us through some room-byroom ideas.

the top. Alternatively, it may be possible to build an under-stair cupboard, kitted out with hooks, shelves and racks.

Our homes are full of stuff, and each room requires specific solutions. You could do this yourself, plotting on graph paper where doors, windows, radiators and other furnishings will go, making use of ‘dead’ spaces such as under stairs or sloping ceilings, the alcoves either side of a chimney breast or the space below a bay window. Alternatively, interior designers can create an overall ‘look’, but should understand space planning, while architects are suited to more extensive works that involve extensions or alterations, and can help to make the most of your space.

Custom-made floor and wall cabinets are ideal for storing toiletries and spare towels, keeping surfaces clear, while vanity units with shelves, drawers and cabinets can be built around sanitaryware to cover up pipe work. Alternatively, consider free-standing options such as dressers, cupboards and chests, and wall-mounted pieces like shelves, racks and mirrored cupboards. Pipe runs can be hidden behind false walls of studwork and plasterboard, within which you can punch shallow shelves and cupboards. Do the same when building a shower wall and create niches in which to store shampoos and soaps.

Living rooms Often the public face of a home, the living room is where you’ll show off treasured possessions whilst concealing less attractive items, so to cope with these twin demands build in storage that includes open shelving and/or display niches as well as cupboards. A central chimney breast with alcoves either side is ideal for shelving above and cupboards below, or run a long, low cupboard along one wall – perhaps incorporating a fireplace or TV in the centre – the top of which can serve as seating or display space. If two rooms have been knocked into one there may be space for shelving or cupboards over the central double doors, or in a small room it may be possible to fit shelving above or around the door or the windows.

Halls

Bathrooms

Bedrooms There are four ways to fit out a bedroom: use freestanding pieces that you can take with you when you move (but probably won’t be space efficient); find a carpenter or joiner to make a bespoke room; use a fitted-furniture specialist, whose ranges often feature ingenious storage solutions; or use inexpensive, off-the-shelf elements from DIY shops or storage specialists, and make it up yourself. It’s a question of working out what best suits you, your property and your pocket.

Children’s rooms Raised beds with storage underneath are great for storing clothes or toys. Drawers should be easy to open, but with stops that prevent them from sliding right out. Use large boxes, baskets or cupboards for bigger toys, and smaller containers for things like Lego, toy soldiers and paints.

Hallway storage is all about organisation – slimline furniture such as console tables or storage benches works well.

Anstruther & District Allotments Association Have you ever fancied having an allotment? You might not even be aware of one of the East Neuk’s hidden jewels. The community allotments are located in Anstruther, on a south facing slope overlooking the Dreelside Halls. As we head towards autumn the plots are reaching the peak of the picking season. Most of the potatoes have been lifted but peas, beans, beetroot and broccoli are still there in abundance. Later in the season we have the promise of onions, parsnips and kale. The strawberries have been enjoyed but late season raspberries run along the perimeter for all to share. The allotments were started in 2010 by a group of local volunteers with support from Fife Council. We’ve kept that community feel, running BBQs and occasional meetings to keep members in touch with all that’s going

on. Shared resources like paths, sheds and compost bins are tackled during work days where plot holders pitch up to lend a hand. A couple of plots come up each year so new comers are always welcomed. Plots vary in size so that no one need take on more than they can manage. And it’s our experience that even novice gardeners can get up and running quickly. Whether it’s the loan of a few tools, or just a bit of advice from someone who knows what does well on Dreelside. And for the more ambitious gardeners, we have two large polytunnels to shelter seedlings and bring on some early crops. So please get in touch to find out more. Contact the club treasurer for more information. Email: norman@noblemarketing.co.uk Tel: 01333 310652

Life Begins

When It’s Time To Climb Out Of Your Empty Nest By Kate McLelland

“It wasn’t just that I missed him, it was feeling that I had moved into a different phase of life.” Is how senior nurse Jane Berry sums up the double-whammy most parents face when seeing their children off to college or university for the

first time. “Suddenly you are left staring at your partner over the breakfast table, thinking: where do we go from here?”

Empty Nest Syndrome is not just about the emotions you experience when your child leaves home, it’s about confronting a milestone in your own life, too. So try to look at this period constructively, assessing your relationships, achievements and goals so you can plan for the future. Even the most positive parent is likely to feel sad for a while when children leave home, and it’s better for your mental wellbeing not to hide your feelings from partner, family and friends. But having an empty nest isn’t necessarily all about sadness and gloom: positives may include getting your bathroom back, being able to see your friends more often and spending less money on outings and leisure pursuits. On the downside there are those inevitable concerns about how your child is managing: are they eating healthily? Having too many late nights? Getting into unsuitable relationships? It’s natural to be concerned, but if negative thoughts persist over time it may be advisable to seek advice from your GP. Here are a few dos and don’ts that can help you climb out of that empty nest: DO - invest time in relationships

Spend time getting to know your partner again. Plan a holiday together or take a series of short breaks to places you wouldn’t normally go with the whole family. If you are single, this is a good time to sign up to a reputable online dating site and start building a new life for yourself. DO - find ways of filling the time Do something useful with all those hours you previously spent tidying, cleaning, shopping and caring. Use the time well instead of letting it slip away: join a choir, start blogging about your feelings or plan a life-changing trekking trip to the Himalayas. DON’T - stalk your child on social media Social media makes it easier to keep in touch but you should avoid spending hours on Facebook or Instagram, checking on their every move. When you do speak, try to resist interrogating them or telling them how miserable you feel without them. DON’T - underestimate the impact on siblings When a child leaves home it changes the whole family dynamic, and that is often just as hard on the other children involved as it is for you. Encourage siblings to keep in touch with their absent brother or sister and plan some special activities you can all do together in the holidays. Like any grieving process, the key to recovery is giving yourself time to adapt. “It took longer than I expected,” admits Jane Berry. “But eventually we

got used to his absence. Now it’s great to see him during the holidays, but by the end I can sense he’s counting the days till he can go back. In a way, we are, too – we still miss him but it feels right that he has an independent life.”

Saving Your Saturdays For Fun

By Marla Cilley

Our whole lives we have played “Catch Up on the Weekends”! This put a sense of dread into our daily life. We no longer looked forward to a wonderful weekend filled with fun with our friends and family. This all started when we were children. It is how our mothers did it! We would have to spend all day Saturday cleaning house or we were banished to our rooms for the evening. I truly believe this is why we despise cleaning house. It has always been a punishment for us. I want you to have a reward for your Home Blessing Efforts! A Saturday to play is a great gift for you! The solution to saving your Saturdays is very simple. Let’s think about how many hours you spend frantically cleaning to catch up from a whole week tossing your routines out into the street! Between our piling and procrastination our homes look like a bomb went off. You can look at a room and see evidence of the things that were done this week. You know the package that had to be wrapped for a birthday party or the whole week’s worth of mail piled on the kitchen counter that is about to fall onto the floor.

The truth is; what you don’t have is ROUTINES! You have the time, you just choose not to do anything because you don’t think you have six hours to do it right! Well you don’t have six hours to clean like a banshee but you do have seven minutes. Implementing just seven minutes in the morning, when you come home from work and before bed will give you back your Saturdays. Maybe we can call this our 7 Minute Saturday Rescue. The secret is to pick up after yourself and get the family to do it right along with you! It can become a fun game. Set your timer three times a day, morning, when you get home from work or school and just before bed. Everyone has to put away the things that belong to them. It is up to you to remember to do it. When you forget you only make it harder to do the next time.

This does not mean you can leave the dishes in the sink and on the table. This is part of cleaning up after dinner and shining your sink. If you do this all week long then on On Saturday you don’t wake up excited about Saturday you can do your Weekly Home cleaning all day. You sleep in a bit; drag Blessing Hour! With your piles put away and around in your pyjamas for a couple of hours hot spots extinguished, your Weekly Home with a pot of coffee to get you moving in the Blessing Hour is a Breeze! Then you are off to right direction. By the time you get started it have some fun. is already noon! The next six hours are spent cleaning like a banshee so that you don’t feel terrible. All the while you’re yelling out orders For help getting rid of your CHAOS, check out her website for everyone in the family to get in gear! I get and join her free mentoring group at www.FlyLady.net or her book, Sink Reflections published by Random House sick just thinking about what we have done and her New York Times Best Selling book, Body Clutter to us and our family; all because we lie to published by Simon and Schuster.

Pets

What To Consider When Hiring A Dog Walker If you work full-time or simply need help to exercise your dog occasionally, you’ll need to look for a professional dog-walker. But how do you know that your beloved pet will be in safe hands? Here are a few things to consider: • Will your dog be walked by the same person each time? • Pet business insurance is a legal requirement for professional dog-walkers. • Will the walker need access to your home? If so, you’ll probably want to ask them for references. • They should also know how to administer first aid to the dogs if required. It’s also worth considering that if your dog has only ever experienced walks on its own with you, going out with other dogs could be threatening or upsetting.

2 Wheel Care Cycle Sales, Repairs & Servicing

Pet business insurance It is imperative that your dog-walker has business liability insurance to cover any damage caused by your dog when they are out, or conversely, anything that happens to your pet. This is actually a legal requirement for any pet business, and should cover damage to property as well as care of the animal. If you are out at work and the dog-walker has access to the house, their insurance should also cover the loss or theft of your keys. It is a good idea to go out with your dog and a potential new walker if possible, if only to give you peace of mind that your pet will be in good hands. http://blog.petplan.co.uk/05/2015/advice/petplanchecklist/what-questions-should-i-ask-my-dogwalker-insurance-credentials-safety-and-more/ By Ann Haldon
