DIY EXPERT THIS WEEK: How to install a wooden floor to add to the value of your home. Get those jobs done with a little help from our new DIY Expert Big Al.

BIG AL SAYS: I have some decent looking floorboards underneath our carpet, how can I make those look good without the expense of laying a new floor?

Before sanding wooden floorboards, it's essential to bang down all the protruding nails. Use a nail punch or a hammer and off-cut of wood, so you don't damage the boards.

If you leave any nails sticking up, they'll break the sanding sheets on the industrial floor sander, which is annoying, time-consuming and expensive because you have to pay for each sheet you use. To start sanding, lift the sander drum off the floor and turn the machine on. This avoids damaging the boards and letting the sander get away with you - it's powerful, so be careful. Walk the sander steadily across the floor in a diagonal direction, but don't linger in one spot because you'll create ridges in the boards. Ensure that the drum has stopped before putting it down.

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK: PMD 10 MULTI-DETECTOR The new PMD 10 multi-detector, minimises the risk because it locates metal, cables and also wooden studs.

ÂŁ79.99 www.bosch-do-it.co.uk

Wooden floors are practical, look fantastic and help to sell homes because they have universal appeal. If you're lucky enough to have period floorboards in your home, you've got a head start, but if not, installing a wooden floor is easier than ever.

36

Laminate flooring, which has a picture of wood printed on to the boards, used to be the easiest way to get the look, but laminate isn't as fashionable as it once was. If you want the real deal, the good news is that other types of wooden flooring are now as easy to install as laminate. Fitting real wooden flooring used to be tricky, but not any more. Boards that just click and fit together, with no nails, screws or glue required, are widely available. This applies to both engineered wood and solid wood flooring. Engineered wood has a layer of wood on top of the boards, but it doesn't go all the way through - there's a cheaper middle and bottom layer. The thickness of the wood varies (usually between 0.6mm and 6mm), so make sure you know how thick it is and how many times, if any, it can be sanded. A floor that can be sanded a few times is a good investment because it can take more wear and tear. As lovely as solid

wood is - and for some people, nothing else will do - engineered wood can be a more practical choice (both start from around the same price). Because engineered wood consists of layers, it has more strength and durability than a solid wood floor. It shouldn't shrink and expand when exposed to moisture and changes in temperature and humidity, unlike a solid wood floor. Most wooden flooring comes finished, sealed and ready to fit, but you can also get bare wood if you want to stain, wax, varnish or paint it yourself, either conventional floorboards (new, or reclaimed period ones) or, again, boards that click together for easy fitting. If your home's leasehold, you may have to get the freeholder's permission to fit wooden floors or have the original floorboards exposed, especially if you have neighbours underneath. See what the lease says because it may have clauses about wooden floors or causing a noise nuisance, which, of course, wooden floors can. One way to get round this is to propose installing special sound-absorbing underlay, which may be acceptable to the freeholder. In this situation, getting the wooden floor of your dreams could be a bit of a battle, but the end result will be worth it.

For those secretly yearning for calm, peaceful spaces and soothing neutral schemes, a little monochrome magic could be the answer.

Black and white's always been a classic decor choice - it's the equivalent of that wardrobe staple the LBD (Little Black Dress) - and can be similarly dressed up or down to suit your mood.

"Monochrome continues to stand the test of time for the simple fact that black and white is a simplistic pallet but can be combined with dashes of colour for a dramatic effect," says Sally Chamley, founder of Black Orchid Interiors.

"You just have to plan extremely well to achieve the correct balance of black and white. I prefer a smart, tailored, modern look, allowing white or neutrals to dominate."

That said, there are many more interpretations including a rococo style with elaborate pattern and detail, creating a moody Gothic feel by allowing black to dominate, or a glamorous art deco style featuring lightreflecting mirrored surfaces and glossy black finishes.

"Capturing a 1920s look using monochrome can be a smart way

to achieve affordable eye-catching opulence," says Chamley.

"Mirrored finishes were popular in the Twenties and these combine so well with black. Also, classic art deco shapes are all about interesting silhouettes and black depicts this perfectly. Use symmetry to enhance a feeling of order and calm."

Black and white, by their forceful contrast, tend to lean towards a smart, formal atmosphere, so consider interesting fabrics with a pattern and texture to create a more playful effect, advises Simon Cavelle, interior designer of fabric specialists, JAB Anstoetz. Its Black & White fabric collection starts from ÂŁ93.80 a metre.

"The scale of a room or piece of furniture should also be considered when choosing the size of patterns," he says.

"Often it's safer to use the boldest monochrome patterns on things like cushions as these can be removed or replaced at the least cost."

Warming colours used in accessories can ensure a black and white scheme doesn't look too cool, and he suggests creating a punchy contrast with colours such as lime green, sharp pink, hot red and orange.

So view your home in black and white, snap up monochrome home buys, and you could find everything comes into a fashionable new focus!

HEARNES – WHERE SERVICE COUNTS

HUGH’S GETTING VOCAL Bar The Leveson Inquiry, Hugh Grant’s been quiet of late but he’s back on the big screen, or at least his voice is, in the new Aardman extravaganza The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists, which is in cinemas now. The actor made famous for bumbling reveals how he found his booming banter, why he can be sulky on set and how he explores a feral side in forthcoming film Cloud Atlas.

Hugh Grant’s looking particularly rosy of cheek following a morning of interviews in a stuffy hotel suite to promote the release of the 3D animation The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists.

It was difficult to judge the mood he’d be in given he’s something of a figurehead for the Hacked Off campaign against press intrusion and put in a storming recent performance alongside Steve Coogan at the Leveson Inquiry into press standards.

But Grant appears chipper, if a little tired, and genuinely excited about being part of an Aardman production, the same team who brought us Wallace & Gromit and Chicken Run. “I think they’re proper geniuses. I’ve never seen an Aardman film I didn’t admire, and the script above

68

all was just incredibly funny and fresh,” he says.

“The film’s incredibly British. It’s sort of right in the dead centre of Monty Python: surreal, predominantly silly, dotty humour.”

Fastidious, slightly neurotic and critical of his performances, Grant says he was terrified of watching the final cut.

“It arrived on a DVD and I didn’t dare watch it for a few weeks. I finally put it on when I was in a good mood and had a few drinks, and loved it,” he admits.

In his first animated role, Grant voices the luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain, the enthusiastic but less than successful head of a hapless crew of pirates, who has one dream - to beat his bitter rivals to the coveted Pirate Of The Year Award.

It’s a quest that takes the crew from the shores of the exotic Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London, and along the way they do battle with the pirate-hating Queen Victoria (Imelda Staunton) and a young and insecure Charles Darwin (David Tennant).

“It was very bad casting, a huge mistake,” jokes Grant of his role. “Physically, I’m so ill-suited to the part. He’s a big, portly, bearded fellow and that just isn’t me.”

At 51, Grant, who’s dressed in dark jeans and a light blue shirt, is still a handsome man. His sloping blue eyes hint at mischief, while his famous floppy hair has long been replaced with a textured, cropped cut.

As with all Aardman animations, the filming process was laborious and Grant dipped in and out of the project over a lengthy period.

“Between sessions you forget the character because it can be months and months and then you’re hauled back in to do some more voicing,” he explains.

So to help him capture the Pirate Captain’s ‘essence’, he liked to stroke an imaginary beard.

“I found that very helpful. That or I’d stroke Peter’s,” he says, referring to Peter Lord, the film’s director. He’s only half joking.

Equally as important was looking into the eyes of his pirate alter ego, he adds.

“The whole Aardman spirit is captured in the bulging eyes. Every character, including a lobster, has bulgy eyes in this film. It’s a sort of wide-eyed innocence.”

Despite the odd misdemeanour (the incident with prostitute Divine Brown, the hurling of baked beans at paparazzi to name a couple), to many people Grant is still the archetypal British gentleman. “That’s a false reading though,” he says now.

But it is still difficult to imagine him alone in a sound booth, flailing his arms about and stroking a beard, real or otherwise, as Pirate Captain.

“The truth is I used to make a living in my twenties doing silly voices. That’s what I did, tape commercials and so on, so it’s not that odd for me,” he says.

Born in London, Grant’s father was a captain in

acting up, that he got the call for Richard Curtis’s Four Weddings And A Funeral, the international success that made him a household name and the go-to guy for “diffident Englishman” parts.

“I drifted into acting by mistake and always though it was a temporary job and still do 30 years on,” he has remarked. “To suddenly have a gigantic success was a surprising fluke at a point in my career when I was genuinely about to pack it in.” He says he can only blame himself for being pigeonholed as a bumbling fop following his choice of roles in 1995’s An Awfully Big Adventure and 1999’s Notting Hill.

The typecasting tide only began to turn with the release of Bridget Jones’ Diary in 2000 and About A Boy the following year, which allowed him to play his caddish card.

These days he enjoys being selective with his film roles and while there are rumblings of a third Bridget Jones movie, he’s exploring his feral side with the release of Cloud Atlas.

An ensemble film based on the novel by David Mitchell, it involves six stories set in different times and places, which become intricately related to each other. “I have six cameo parts in this strange, ambitious film. I do a lot of killing and raping,” he says. “In one of the parts I am a cannibal, about 2000 years in the future, and I thought, ‘I can do that, it’s easy’. “And then I am suddenly standing in a cannibal skirt on a mountain-top in Germany and they’re saying, the army and his late mother a schoolteacher, but despite an impressive military and aristocratic ancestry, the actor’s family wasn’t overtly affluent.

He attended London’s Latymer Upper School and Oxford University on scholarships. It was while at Oxford, where he was studying English Literature, that he decided to give acting a go and made his film debut in 1982’s Privileged.

In the late Eighties and early Nineties, he was cast in a range of TV mini series and film projects including The Dawning with Anthony Hopkins, The Big Man opposite Liam Neeson, and then, in 1992, he appeared in Roman Polanski’s Bitter Moon.

But despite the big-name productions, Grant was going largely unnoticed.

It was at the age of 32, and on the cusp of giving

EXTRA TIME Pirate facts A crew of 525 people worked on the film including 33 animators and 41 shooting units in four studios.

The pirate ship was handcrafted and made up of 44,569 parts. It weighed 770 pounds and stood 15ft high.

Look out for the sticker on the back of the ship that says: ‘Honk if you’re seasick’.If you look closely during the scene in Queen Victoria’s treasure room, you may spot a gold

The director Peter Lord has a brief cameo in the film as the policeman who lifts his hat to reveal a sandwich and says: “Mind how you go ladies.”

The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists is released in cinemas on Wednesday, March 28

‘We want hungry! We must have flesh-eating like a leopard who is so hungry...’ and I am thinking, ‘I can’t do that! Just give me a witty line!’”

Beyond that, his thoughts are turning to directing. He has an idea for his directorial debut but there are things he needs to “clear out first”, he says.

These include the campaigning, and perhaps he needs time to settle into his role as ‘dad’ after the birth of his daughter in September with Chinese actress Tinglan Hong. “Then I’ll go and sit somewhere where it’s not noisy and my phone’s not going and write a script,” he says. “I do feel the only thing that ever truly makes you happy is creativity.”

GERVAIS RISKS ALL FOR THE LOVE OF DEREK

Ricky Gervais is bringing his latest character creation to the small screen, with one-off comedy drama Derek on Channel 4 on Thursday, April 12. The comic reveals why he now wants the ego to be left out of comedy and what his wife thinks of his dreams.

Since he first stepped into the limelight a decade ago, Ricky Gervais has become adept at dealing with criticism.

"The first reviews for The Office were awful," he says of the mockumentary which made his name in 2001. "They used the phrase 'summer stinker' I seem to remember."

Although his brand of humour may be of the Marmite variety, his star has since risen to a stratospheric level. He has a trophy cabinet full of Baftas, is renowned on both sides of the Atlantic and has presented the Golden Globes three times. But he still lands himself in hot water every so often.

Take last year, when he referred to Britain's Got Talent finalist Susan Boyle as a 'mong' in a stand-up gig, sparking complaints from hundreds of angry viewers and Down's Syndrome groups who said the word was still associated with the condition.

"That's gone into myth and legend, but I said at the time, I'd never use that word to mean Down's Syndrome, never would, never have," he says today.

It's not surprising, then, that Gervais is expecting a negative reaction to his latest mockumentary, Derek, which has a one-off showing on Channel 4 this month.

Set in an old people's home, it follows the lives of those who live and work there, with the camera guided by Gervais as Derek, a care assistant who outwardly appears to have learning difficulties.

"I would be confused if no one attacked me about this," he says. "Every week has been the end of my career for the last 20 years.

I mean, I started with a backlash. But what can you do? If you started making it for reviews or awards, or the public, you'd never get anywhere. I make it for me." Gervais denies that Derek is disabled.

"He's not that bright, but he's cleverer than Baldrick. He hasn't got as big a problem as Mr effing Bean. "I've never thought of him as disabled. When I portray a disabled person, I get the person with that disability to play them, so the wheelchair-bound woman in The Office was an actress who uses a wheelchair and there was a guy with Down's Syndrome in Extras."

Derek is perhaps Gervais's most touching character yet. Yes, he believes the 'documentary' he's being filmed for is actually an episode of Secret Millionaire, and yes he talks in a slow way with his mouth gaping, but he's very kind and honest.

"I think it's time to have an antidote to fame, I just want to do normal people again," says Gervais, who turned 50 last summer.

"People assume my work is always meant to be outrageous and cynical but it's never been.

There were always happy endings in The Office and Extras.

So this is all about kindness and forgotten people on the periphery of society."

The programme co-stars Gervais's best friend Karl Pilkington in his first acting role as the old people's home's slightly dour caretaker Dougie, and comic Kerry Godliman as care worker Hannah.

He says that like all good sitcoms it's a family, with Hannah as the mum, Dougie as the dad and everyone else as the children.

"The difference between this and other sitcoms I've done is there's no real veil of irony, people are saying exactly what they mean, unlike the talking heads in The Office who said things in juxtaposition to what you actually saw them do."

He also enjoyed playing a character with no real ego. "Derek's just selfless and unpretentious, he's better than us, and I thought an old people's home was the perfect place for him.

"No one cares about old people in this country, it's really weird. It's the arrogance of youth, but you're definitely going to be old. That's the one thing that is definitely going to happen to you," he says, with his trademark chuckle. Naturally the setting means there's as much scope for sadness as there is for humour, and towards the end of the episode we see Derek in tears.

"It's a comedy drama, but then everything is because that's what life is. You try and have a laugh all the time and then you find a lump and it's how you deal with it. I do like getting close to real emotions," says Gervais.

He had been toying with the character of Derek for 12 years and even wrote him into

“I was going to take a step back from it, but I’ve got a part and I’ve bigged my part up. I play God. It’s a stretch.”

one of his stand-up routines.

"It was an excuse to see the world differently. He'd be introduced and say things like, 'My mum doesn't know I'm here' and then he'd get everything wrong. He was an excuse to deconstruct everything."

He admits all his work is "semiautobiographical" and that Derek, along with David Brent and Andy Millman, "has got a lot of me in them".

After frequent collaborations with his writing partner Stephen Merchant, Gervais has gone it alone for Derek, which he hopes will be commissioned for a full series.

"It's lonelier," he admits. "It's fun collaborating, but it's still a compromise. You get around it by shouting so loud they let you have your own way!"

He's also directing and producing the comedy drama, which gives him more control. "It feels easier to be in amongst it, because I know what I want. Writing and directing is fused because I don't think of lines and then wonder how I'm going to do them, I always imagine it on the telly.

"The only reason I started directing and producing was to protect the sort of writing I did."

He's still amazed that he and Merchant got The Office commissioned.

"The script could still be in someone's drawer.

'A bloke who isn't funny says something unfunny, looks at the cameras and touches his tie'. That's comedy gold!" he laughs.

"I remember the first meeting we had for it. I said, 'We're going to write it, I'm going to star in it, there's going to be no stars in it, there's going to be no laughter track and we're going to direct it. You either say yes or we take it somewhere else'.

"After the meeting, Steve went, 'Rick, can I do the talking in future?' And when we got it I said, 'See, Steve?' and he went, 'Yeah, but we could be living in a car!'"

Besides writing a whole series of Derek, Gervais is working on a one-hour special of most recent sitcom Life's Too Short, which will feature Les Dennis and Keith Chegwin, as well as Warwick Davis.

He's got plans for a new tour in America and Europe, and he's teaming up with Clyde Phillips, the producer of Dexter, to write an American show about an atheist who goes to heaven.

"I was going to take a step back from it, but I've got a part and I've bigged my part up.

I play God. It's a stretch," he chuckles.

FIVE MINUTES WITH...

SIMON RIMMER Simon Rimmer is one of television’s most talkedabout chefs. He talks about why he’s doing his bit for those less fortunate in Africa, how he’s settling in at Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch, and tells of the only downside to his job

Tell us a bit about the ONE brand and how you’re helping out?

I was approached a while ago about doing some recipe development and cooking some dishes. But once I got to know about the brand, I wanted to get far more involved with it. It was started by a guy called Duncan Goose - he went on a round-the-world motorcycle trip, ended up in Africa and was at a school where there were 25 children on the register, 10 of them missing.

You assume that they would be off doing a project, but it was explained that they didn’t have the energy to walk to school because of what they called ‘the hungry season’. There was no food around. Goose came back and thought this seemed ludicrous and so he set up the One brand and the principle of it is that all the products that they do, all the profits from the foods that are sold in this country, go to fund projects in Africa, such as setting up hen coups and teaching hen husbandry, so there’s always chickens and eggs, and right the way through the year, there’s always food available.

No. We got commissioned to do 10 episodes in 2006 and we were never off air, it was a continuous run. But it’s absolutely beyond my wildest dreams, it’s incredible. The BBC initially said that if it could get up to 400,000 viewers, they’d be really happy. Well at one point (recently), I think we had 1.37 million, so we’d surpassed that.

How did you feel when you heard the show had been axed? Were you mentally planning your Sundays for the next few months?

I was obviously initially gutted that it was going. We’d had a great run of over five years, however it was good to know the show wasn’t being axed because people didn’t like it - it was purely down to budget cuts. I’ve always worked over weekends so it was more a case that I’d probably be back in the restaurant if I wasn’t in London filming.

It’s great news that Channel 4 have snapped it up - you must be over the moon?

What’s so great about your recipes for it and why did you choose them?

The recipes themselves are very straightforward. We did chorizo scotch eggs, an earl grey tea, then there’s the bread and butter pudding, and a lamb tikka with cauliflower pancakes. So they’re lovely, straight-forward, robust dishes.

Did you ever expect something for the weekend to be as popular as it was?

82

We went from being gutted to finding out the great news that the new show had been picked up. It all happened really quickly, with contracts being signed off then into rehearsals and in no time at all we were doing the first live show on March 25.

the kitchen. We had a great first week. Nothing went wrong surprisingly, and we got a whole new raft of followers on Twitter too. For a first show, we couldn’t have asked for more.

You’ve done that many tv projects now - which has been your favourite and why?

SFTW without a shadow of a doubt, just because it’s been one of those programmes that doesn’t feel like work, and I think if you can do something where you think, ‘I’m getting paid to do this’, then that has to be a good case. I’ve made some good friends and it has genuinely changed my life, from a profile point of view; from someone who pottered around doing bits of telly over the years, to being on a show like that which everybody knows has been brilliant. So that’s top of the list. I used to do a really lovely show called Grub’s Up, all about local produce, which is obviously very dear to my heart and again it wasn’t about me, it was about the producing, and about the produce, and about my local region which I’m massively proud of.

Is there one meal you will never tire of cooking?

How does Sunday Brunch differ from sftw?

Lots, really. I still love cooking, even after 21 years of being a chef. I never tire of cooking duck, of cooking fish, or curries, or stews, but I also never tire of making cakes with my kids. It’s constantly on-going and constantly changing as well.

It’s a different show and there are different elements to it. But I’m still doing the cooking in

LAUNDRY DRY CLEANING CARPET CLEANER HIRE ALTERATIONS

& MUCH MORE

An article this month from the National Trust created a lot of debate at work. They published a list of “50 things to do before you are 11 and ¾”, designed to get children off the sofa, away from their games consoles and out in the fresh air.

It brought back a great sense of nostalgia as we counted up how many things on the list we had achieved. There were echoes of my own childhood with traditional things such as flying a kite, skimming stones, climbing a tree and lighting a fire without matches.

Inevitably there was also helpful health and safety tips for every activity which I suppose are a sign of the times.

Another reminder of the different world we live in now is the statistics which inspired this initiative. Fewer than one in ten children regularly play in wild places compared to almost one half a generation ago, a third have never climbed a tree, one in ten can’t ride a bike and three times as many are taken to hospital after falling out of bed than from falling out of a tree.

So, in an attempt to get our children outdoors and experiencing the simple pleasures, the National Trust has set up schemes at some properties which allow children to learn these skills. This is something that the National Trust has been working on for a while.

Last summer I took my kids to Brownsea to take part in one of the trial schemes where the rangers took groups of children into the woods to learn to build dens. I was expecting some resistance from my daughter but within minutes she was getting her hands dirty and I know they came away happy and safe in the knowledge that should I ever decide to abandon them in the Purbecks with a pen knife and some Kendal Mint Cake they would be able to build a shelter and survive for the night.

Not all the activities on the list were old fashioned. Geocaching is a new activity that is becoming a worldwide phenomenon. It is treasure hunting with global positioning rather than an old fashioned map and compass.

Geocachers hide small items at outdoor locations, pinpoint its location using GPS and then post the coordinates on the official website.

And they can be hidden anywhere from remote countryside locations to places in the heart of the city. So there is one activity that you don’t even have to be in the countryside to take part in.

The best thing about most of the items on the list of 50 is that they are free. During the current climate, I know that will come as music to a lot of parent’s ears. You can read the list at www.nationaltrust.org.uk/50things

Q A

SHARRON CANNING MOVE ON RENTALS If you like to be kept up to date with the latest legislations, you can opt into our Email newsletter. Just email Sharon@ moveonrentals.com or telephone 01202 711169 for an informal chat or free property valuation.

We have been approached by a prospective tenant who .wishes to rent out our 3 bedroom property for herself and her children. It would appear she has recently split from her partner. She would like to move into the property with her ex-partner paying the rent. What is the procedure in doing this correctly? Do we issue a Tenancy Agreement in both their names? Are there any pitfalls we should be aware of?

You could issue a Tenancy Agreement in both their names, however, this will give the ex-partner equal rights and also allow him to serve notice on the property.

This could become messy if later on during the tenancy, things are not so amicable. I would recommend you issuing an Assured Shorthold Tenancy in her name with the children as permitted occupiers and then the ex-partner acting as Guarantor for them. However, you must still proceed with the referencing and credit checks on both parties to ensure suitability and affordability. I have found in my experience, that sometimes this is requested because the person residing in the property is not credit worthy, or they are looking to claim Local Housing Allowance (LHA) which with one name on a tenancy will be acceptable, however, the ex-partner suddenly doesn’t appear to be the ‘ex’ anymore, but they do not inform the council, which means they could be claiming fraudulently.

Be aware of tenants offering six months’ rent in advance too. This also can mask other things, so as a matter of precaution, we always reference people over the age of 18. As Guarantor, it is important to ensure they have enough earnings to cover an additional rent, we also make sure the Guarantor is fully aware of their responsibilities, all too often a Guarantor thinks they are confirming the tenant is good for the rent and not that they are ultimately responsible for paying the rent if the tenant defaults. Where absolute possible, as an additional precaution the Guarantor should be a home owner, as they are unlikely to want a second charge on their home if the tenant does default. Always take photo ID and ask for utility bills from the last 3 months on all persons being referenced. Of course, all could be completely above board and the referencing will ensure you have done your due diligence. Frequent property inspections will highlight any anomalies.

BRING ON SPRING SKIN The recent mini-heatwave caught us all off guard. But along with the ice creams and sunbathing sessions came the annual horror of baring skin for the first time. Sales of SOS fake tan at Debenhams rocketed by 105% in reaction to the freakish warm weather. So next time the sun rears its head, be prepared with a spring skin routine.

Transform those frosty, pasty arms and legs into glowing summer-ready limbs that don’t look like they’ve been hidden away in opaque tights and woolly cardigans for months. It’s time to glow and go with our foolproof skincare guide.

REVIVE SKIN If your skin has been in hibernation under snuggly duvets and winter layers, it’s time for a spring wake-up call.

Kick-start your morning with a dry body brushing session prior to your shower. Brushing in circular motions will also remove redundant dry, dead skin cells.

“Dry body brushing increases circulation and brings nutrients to the skin’s surface for healthylooking skin,” explains Jane Calderwood, beauty therapist at Champneys.

“It also gives an uplifting feeling, helps to shake off sleep and prepares you for the day ahead.”

Ditch any aromas that make you feel drowsy and use an invigorating shower gel with uplifting fragrances to start your day on a high.

“Choose fresh, light spring smells,” Calderwood advises. “Tangy products like Champneys’ Citrus Blush range are perfect for this time of year as they’re uplifting and energising, with notes of ginger, grapefruit, lemon and vanilla.”

SILKY SMOOTH Radiant skin requires more than just a hero moisturising product.

“The first step towards silky soft skin is to exfoliate once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells from the skin’s surface,” explains Dr Sue Mayou, cosmetic dermatologist and Aveeno consultant.

“This helps to leave the skin smooth and improves light reflection off the surface which gives a healthy glow and a good base on which to apply a moisturiser.”

If you want silky skin, it’s important to adopt a religiously regular moisturising regime to maximise hydration - random and slapdash applications just won’t do.

Mayou recommends choosing a light moisturiser or even a spritz lotion that will sink in easily with minimum effort.

“If you have dry or sensitive skin, certain areas like elbows, knees and ankles are likely to be drier than others, so pay particular attention to them when moisturising,” she suggests.

During the skin-baring season, hair removal methods like shaving go up a notch. For perfect pins, avoid irritated skin by using lukewarm water and moisturising afterwards.

142

GET THE GLOW You don’t need to dash out for an uber-dark spray tan whenever sunshine’s on the way.

A light self-tan is all you need to look like a naturally more golden delicious version of yourself.

For super-subtle try a gradual tan, but you may need to take extra care with the application, warns Sienna X spray tan guru James Harknett.

“The results look great but the lotion is often colourless, so be wary of those without a guide colour - take time and make sure you cover everywhere.”

If your self-tan lotion looks too dark, Harknett recommends mixing with a moisturiser to ease yourself into spring, and always use a tanning mitt for an even application.

Dry body mists are another speedy way to achieve a spring glow. Moisturise first - avoiding anything too oily or thick - and then spray evenly.

For a finishing touch, give your skin an enviable spring sheen with a shimmer. Harknett says: “Look for products that contain subtle shimmer particles so you end up looking more spring

Turn your lips juicy with a fruity lip balm. Our testers protect their pouts with these mouth-watering hydrators .

BURT’S BEES REFRESHING LIP BALM in Pink Grapefruit, £3.69 (www.burtsbees.co.uk) There’s refreshing and then there’s ridiculously moreish. I couldn’t stop licking my lips with this delicious colourless balm - thankfully the product is 100% natural. It had an immediate softening effect but sadly no long-term results.

3/5

CARMEX MOISTURE PLUS in Peach Sheer Tint SPF15, £4.49 (Boots) Sheer and fruity, this moisturising tint with SPF produced an unexpected tingly effect. As the consistency is quite thin, it didn’t seem to last long on my lips but I loved the natural-look pink gloss.

4/5

Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Stick SPF15 in Peach, £6.50 This lip butter is creamy and rich and the peachy colour packs quite a punch.

A great alternative if you want a sheer lipstick that has SPF protection and nourishing properties in one tube.

HONDA CR-V FREE UPGRADE

144

Honda customers purchasing a CR-V will now benefit from a complimentary trim level upgrade worth up to £2,520.

Between the beginning of April and end of June, customers purchasing a CR-V SE+ will be upgraded to the ES-T variant. This means the addition of £2,490 worth of extra equipment including 18” alloy wheels, half leather/half alcantara upholstery, heated front seats, retractable wing mirrors, iPod connectivity and Satellite Navigation with Hands Free Telephone system all completely free of charge.

Customers looking for that added luxury and opting for the ES-T specification will automatically receive a complimentary upgrade to EX trim. This means the addition of premium audio, full leather upholstery, panoramic roof, HID lights, auto lights and wipers, full body coloured bumpers and eight way power assisted driver seat – worth a total of £2,520.

To keep the CR-Vs running costs manageable, Honda is also offering a three year service plan for only £299 and a two year 0 per cent HP finance package.

ROAD TEST SUBARU XV

by Nick Fletcher Subaru says its new XV crossover is “a crossover for people who don’t like crossovers” and that is an apt description.

The XV looks quite classy and drives just like a car. Although a tad taller than comparable cars, it’s road footprint is much the same and it is not at all unwieldy in tight traffic situations.

A five-seater with permanent four-wheeldrive, the new XV is priced from around £21,000 for a 1.6 litre petrol version, with mid-range 2.0 diesels a couple of thousand more, and the flagship models touch £30,000. The mid-range diesels are the sensible choice for most, for the combined fuel figure is 50.4 mpg – impressive.

Sharing a platform with the new Impreza hatchback, the XV has a longer wheelbase, higher ride height and a lower boot floor. Big bumpers, wheel arch extension and eyecatching alloys give the XV a strong visual persona.

The 2.0 litre diesel gives 147 hp, a top speed of 120 mph and a crisp 0-60 mph time of 9 seconds. It is a responsive, fluent engine mated to a slick 6-speed manual gearbox and they combine to provide easy, effortless progress.

With revised and up-rated suspension, the XV rides and handles well. It is good on the tarmac and while not intended to be an outand-out off-roader, its full-time four-wheeldrive and higher ground clearance mean it can cope with mud, grass and snow and other slippery surfaces that would pose problems for more conventional cars. So the XV does give that important get-you-home reassurance.

Inside, legroom is generous and all but the tallest of rear seat passengers would be comfortable. The boot size is not quite as big as it might seems from the outside, but it is adequate for normal needs, and the rear seats split-fold for extra versatility.

Equipment levels are decent, with the essential goodies included on all models. My test version, in SE spec at around £26,000, also features dual-zone climate control, reversing camera and cruise control.

The XV is up against the likes of the Nissan Qashqai and Kia Sportage and perhaps even the lower-spec versions of the Land Rover Discovery so competition is keen. But Subaru does have strong brand image thanks to its motorsport successes and its reputation for reliability and I think the XV is going to give the brand a real boost.

PRINTS CHARMING Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an eye-catching print for everyone this season.

We parades the bold print trends to covet.

145

GRAPHIC GLORY If this summer is a celebration of the Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics, then fashion’s main event is print, print, print.

The mantra is the bolder the better to parade this trend to its full potential. And no piece has escaped the print makeover with staples like jeans and shoes emblazoned with captivating prints.

From Hawaii Five-O to animal magic, there are countless mini-trends vying for your attention on the rails.

If in doubt, clash it out... When you’re feeling indecisive, stepping out in contrasting patterns will ensure maximum impact - just ensure the most prominent shades are from the same colour family.

Make heads turn with this season’s punchy prints.

Remember those optical illusion prints that required 3D specs? Well fashion has transferred them to wardrobes and you might just need your sunglasses to avoid the glare.

These chaotic optic prints are eye-popping, colour-clashing and above all intriguing.

Closer inspection is required just to suss them out.

If you’re not so keen on garish brights, take the same principles to a monochromatic colourway to dazzle in black and white.

Keep accessories to a minimum - the busy print will be statement enough.

PRINT RATING

Mindboggling bold

CLUB TROPICANA Fashion has gone on a Hawaiian vacation with playful print scenes of blue skies, palm leaves and vibrant hibiscus flowers.

Close your eyes and you can almost hear the waves crashing and coconuts dropping.

But you don’t have to wait for your summer holidays to go totally tropical.

These playful prints can be flaunted now in moderation.

Try an ironic twist on the Hawaiian shirt with a chic palm print blouse or dare to step out in tropical trousers that work equally as well with beachy flipflops or glam high heels.

PRINT RATING

146

Sunny bold

NATURAL SELECTION Indulge in this season’s juiciest trend for fruit ‘n’ veg prints. This is the fashionable way to get your five a day.

Go bananas for bright fruit like apples or lemons or take the muted option with vegetables, like deep purple aubergines or red onions a la Dolce & Gabbana.

There are two print options on this style market: either opt for lifelike oversized watercolours or kitsch cartoon-style prints for a cute spin.

But don’t turn your ensemble into a supermarket aisle - stick to either a fruit or veg feature print.

PRINT RATING

Deliciously bold DIGITAL DREAM We might be saying goodbye to analogue but television’s not the only thing going digital. Prints have undergone a digital makeover too.

This design technique varies from lifelike digital florals to smudgy kaleidoscopic prints that leave your head in a spin.

Wear with clashing colours or simple denim and let your print do all the talking.

If you’re not quite brave enough for the digital revolution on your clothing, try a statement accessory like an eye-catching scarf.

PAISLEY PERFECTION The future may be digital but there’s one print trend that’s pure Seventies retro.

Thanks to the likes of catwalk favourites Stella McCartney and Jil Sander, paisley has made a fashionable comeback.

Keep things fresh on a white backdrop, muted on dark blue or red, or go wild with clashing brights.

This season’s scarf-inspired blouses are the glossy way to work a 2012 paisley. Team with a clashing print skirt or trousers if you dare.

RECIPES FROM ‘WARM BAGELS & APPLY STRUDEL’

RECIPE BABA GANOUSH

(SERVES 4-6)

INGREDIENTS

METHOD

1 large aubergine or 8 baby aubergines (about 300g)

Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4. Smear the aubergine(s) with a little olive oil and sprinkle with coarse sea salt. If you have a gas hob, place the aubergine(s) directly over the flame and chargrill the skins to blacken them.

Pop the aubergines in a roasting tin, spear a few times to prevent explosion, then add the onions and garlic, and drizzle over a little olive oil. Roast in the oven for 1 hour until soft and tender. Discard the stalk(s) and place the aubergine flesh in the bowl of a food processor. Add the skinned roasted onion, squeeze in the juicy nuggets of garlic and add the fresh coriander, ground cumin and tahini paste. Blitz to a smooth (or coarse, if you prefer) paste, taste for seasoning and then spoon into a serving dish.

Garnish with a little drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of paprika. Serve with toasted pitta bread for a light lunch.

Olive oil, for drizzling Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling 2 large onions, cut into quarters 2 garlic cloves, skins left on 25g fresh coriander, finely chopped 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 tablespoon tahini paste A pinch of paprika, to garnish Toasted pitta bread, to serve

RECIPE MEAT BORSCHT

(SERVES 8-10)

INGREDIENTS

METHOD

6 large beetroot, peeled & chopped

Place the beetroot in a large pan with the onion, garlic, celery, beef and beef bones. Pour over 3.6 litres water and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and simmer gently for about 2 hours. Take out the beef brisket with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate. Peel the lemon with a vegetable peeler and squeeze the juice. Add the lemon peel to the pan with the lemon juice, raisins, herbs and caraway seeds. Bring back to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring. Turn off the heat and discard the lemon peel and bones. Break the eggs into a small bowl, whisk in a ladleful of the soup and then tip the mixture back into the pan, whisking all the time. Cut the cooked brisket into bite-sized pieces and place some in the base of each soup bowl. Ladle the soup over the meat and accompany with dark rye bread and pickled cucumbers.

1 large onion, finely chopped 3 garlic cloves, peeled & finely chopped 3 celery stalks, trimmed & chopped 1kg beef brisket, whole 1kg beef bones 1 lemon 2 tablespoons raisins 25g fresh parsley, finely chopped 25g fresh dill, finely chopped 1 teaspoon caraway seeds 2 organic free-range eggs

HEALTH & FITNESS

THE PALEO PLAN Over the last thirty years or so the health of the UK has been an unmitigated disaster, this is due mostly to fact of atrocious diet we follow, namely grains, starchy carbohydrates, dairy and processed foods!

The Paleo diet that gave us the greatest vitality and health disappeared around 10,000 years ago when the ancient Egyptians invented agriculture and farming to deal with a steadily growing population, the reason for this was that it was cheap and easy - very similar to modern food companies using high fructose corn syrup as a base for most of the processed foods that we consume. but now it is returning in force as people want to be lean, strong and healthy. A paleo diet involves eating meat, vegetables, fruits, and some nuts and seeds. All evidence points to the fact that this enables the human body to be lean, strong and healthy very similar to the indigenous hunter gatherers that still exist today in parts of South America and Papua New Guinea! None of these people have any modern diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease et al.

them from insects 'lectin'. This causes havoc in our guts by sticking to the walls of our guts and making holes that allow particles of food to get through and into our blood stream, this causes the immune system to start attacking it and as a result can cause most of the auto immune diseases we see these days. There is also phytic acid present in a lot of grains and starchy carbs, another undesirable. Our bodies can’t digest it and it strips our bodies of essential vitamins and minerals like magnesium, calcium, zinc and iron.

Dairy foods were meant to be for baby cows and yet we are told to eat it for calcium, however dairy is highly acidic and when present in your system the bones leach it out to neutralise the acid!! You can get more usable calcium from proteins, veg, fruit and nuts -the mainstay of paleo.

INGREDIENTS

8 portobello mushrooms, stems removed 300g mince beef 1 tbs cajun seasoning 1 tbs olive oil 4 eggs 2 cups iceberg lettuce, shredded 3 yellow tomatoes, sliced

I am not even going to start on processed foods as you probably know just how much sugar, salt and chemicals are in them? Right?

Anyway, to follow a Paleo diet your diet should look someting like this 35% protein, 35% high fibre carbs such as dark leafy greens and 30% good fats such as olive oil, flax seed, avocados and omega 3's found in cold water fish!

So we should be eating the way are ancestors did for complete health, but instead we are eating potatoes, grains, legumes etc not to mention things like packaged foods and bread and pasta and dairy. The biggest problem here is that with things like potatoes and grains have an inbuilt protection mechanism to protect

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGER (SERVES 4)

The other problem with a modern diet is that IT WILL make you fat as there is just too much sugar in it, which cause our insulin levels to go crazy. Insulin is the number one fat storing hormone. To optimise your hormones you need to promote the hormone glucagon and not the hormone insulin - you do this by following a paleo diet!

Preheat a grill to medium heat.

Place the mince and cajun seasoning in a bowl and combine well. Divide the meat mixture into 4 portions. Flatten each portion to form a patty shape and place on the BBQ grill. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes each side or until cooked. Transfer to a plate and cover with aluminium foil to keep warm.

Place the portobello mushrooms on the grill for 2-3minutes each side, or until chargrilled.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat and fry the eggs for 1 minute each side or until cooked to your desired liking.

To serve, place one portobello mushroom on a plate and layer an even portion of lettuce and yellow tomato on-top. Take one fried egg and place it on-top of the lettuce and tomato, then finish with a mince patty and a second portobello mushroom.
