UK SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY ANNOUNCES SPONSORSHIP OF THE ASIAN AWARDS UK Sotheby’s International Realty is delighted to announce it’s partnership with The Asian Awards. The Asian Awards takes place on April 16th 2013 at London’s Grosvenor House.

The event, which is now in its third year, was conceived by Paul Sagoo, founder of consultancy Lemon Group, to celebrate excellence among the global Asian community and to recognise and reward the outstanding achievements of individuals born within Asia across all disciplines of life.

The Asian Awards, in Partnership with UK Sotheby’s International Realty, draws 1,000 of the most influential people in the Asian community and has raised over £200,000 to date for charity. In 2010 and 2011 it honoured some of Asia’s most illustrious achievers, from Sachin Tendulkar and Muttiah Muralitharan to

legendary artistes, Asha Bhosle, Freddie Mercury (posthumously), Amitabh Bachchan, Jay Sean and AR Rahman, to powerful business magnates Ratan Tata, Vijay Mallya, Dr KP Singh and leaders in technology such as Google’s Amit Singhal. This sponsorship is a natural step for UK Sotheby’s International Realty having attended the Indian Art Fair in New Delhi in February. Here the company showcased its portfolio of properties to an audience of High Net Worth individuals and forged strong links with leaders in the Asian business community. Sophie Panizzo, Head of Region of UK Sotheby’s International Realty comments: “We are delighted to sponsor the Asian Awards which celebrates the achievements and excellence of outstanding people of Asian origin. Through our international

network of over 650 offices in 47 countries we are able to help clients build a portfolio of properties across the world.

We are delighted to have this opportunity to showcase our brand to such an esteemed audience of High Net Worth Individuals and further enhance our links with the Asian community.” Founder of The Asian Awards, Paul Sagoo comments: “UK Sotheby’s International Realty is a global brand associated with delivering the highest level of service and we are incredibly proud for the company to come on board as our headline partner this year.

The company’s drive and determination to offer the very best service both in Britain and internationally, perfectly compliments our ethos and our own commitment to excellence.” For further information on The Asian Awards, in

Partnership with UK Sotheby’s International Realty including ticket information and details on this year’s nominees please visit www.theasianawards. com or follow us on twitter: @ TheAsianAwards.

A JEWELL IN SHERBORNE’S CROWN 26 March 2013: As work continues at Sherborne’s newest property development Sherborne House Gardens, one of its newest residents is delighted with her new home.

With her husband in the military, Hillarie Floyd-Jewell was used to moving around a lot and after her husband left the services, the couple wanted to find a place where they could stay put to enjoy their retirement. After a 14-year stint in Germany they set their hearts on a move to the West Country and having looked at many possible places to settle, decided that Sherborne was the place for them. Having lived in a number of properties in and around the area for a number of years, including St Anthony’s Square and Antelope Place, once Hillarie found out that Redcliffe Homes was planning to build an exclusive development in the grounds of the historic Sherborne House she knew that this was where she wanted to be. Not wanting to miss out on the opportunity to secure a home at Sherborne House Gardens, Hillarie moved into rented accommodation while she waited for the development to be launched and the plans unveiled. Now comfortably settled into her spacious two-bedroom apartment within the Portman Place court-

yard, Hillarie is thrilled with her new home and is delighted she decided to make the move.

Hillarie said: “I absolutely love my new home. Redcliffe Homes has a very good reputation and the sales team lived up to my expectations of providing first class service. I’m just thrilled to bits. My new apartment is extremely comfortable, in a fantastic location and is just perfect for me. The development is really close to the centre of Sherborne so I can easily walk to Cheap Street and the surrounding shops. “It’s also much more manageable as my previous home was becoming a bit of a burden and because it’s new it’s easy to maintain and is economical to run. One of my children regularly pops over for the weekend to make sure I’m OK and she also loves visiting.”

Lorraine Kendrick, Marketing & Sales Manager at Redcliffe Homes added: “We’re delighted that Mrs Floyd-Jewell has settled in so well. The development is perfect for a range of buyers, including those looking to downsize and we hope she thoroughly enjoys living in this very special development.”

With 12 different house types on offer, those keen to get the pick of the plots have been quick to secure one of 44 bespoke homes that are being built – including Hillarie. With

over 50% of the homes on the development sold and a number of home owners already moved in, the development is appealing to discerning house hunters looking for the unique opportunity of a brand new home within walking distance of such a special and sought after town. Interest in the development has also heightened now that people can see the quality of the properties being built, which have been specifically designed to blend in with the local area.

The development of Sherborne House Gardens has also enabled the restoration of Sherborne House which will breathe new life into this historic building. The work includes a comprehensive and sensitive restoration programme that will not only secure the building’s future for generations to come but also provide a new facil-

ity for the people of the area.

Working closely with English Heritage, the painstaking work will restore the structure and interiors of the house including the Grade 1 Listed Thornhill Mural. For those interested in finding out a little more about the homes available, a brand new view home will open in April, which will provide people looking to move to this inspirational walled-garden development some ideas of what new homes can offer. It will also allow house hunters to appreciate not only the quality of the homes for sale but also the bespoke nature and variety available at one of Redcliffe Homes’ prestigious developments. The Marketing Suite and Show home is open Thursday to Monday 10 - 5pm.

WHEN KITCHEN SIZE MATTERS Kitchens are the ultimate multi-functional room these days, where the family gather to cook, eat, socialise, and they may even double up as a work space.

“Nowadays properties are getting smaller, which in turn means that consumers are searching for a smaller kitchen to suit their needs and home,” says Jason McNulty, head of product development at Wren Kitchens. “But smaller needn’t mean less functional or less stylish.” Planning how you use the space is key, so that not an inch is wasted and, if possible, has at least one area - even if only a breakfast bar - where you can eat or utilise as an extra work surface.

Also consider carefully what you need to include in your kitchen. If possible, move appliances into other rooms in the house - for example, a freezer can go in a garage, a washing machine in a utility room or bathroom, as this helps free up vital space in the kitchen. If you’re still in a stew, here’s what the experts have to say about tackling the most common kitchen dilemmas.

TOP TIPS “Include a breakfast bar to one side of the kitchen to create a small area for entertaining or dining,” says Belinda Corani. “If that’s impossible, a telescopic pull-out table which can be folded away behind a kitchen cabinet drawer front could suffice,” says Gerald Jones, managing director at Masterclass Kitchens.

“Make the most of every inch of space with integral storage solutions, such as pan drawers, curved corner units and cantilever carousels,” advises Jude Keenan, kitchen planner at John Lewis’s Oxford Street London store. She also suggests positioning tall units at the end of a run, away from windows, to avoid blocking out light.

“With three walls to work with, you can position the oven and hob in the centre of the room and the fridge and sink around it on either side, forming a compact and practical ‘working triangle’,” says Belinda Corani, founder of www.houseconscious.com. Debbie Bowden, a designer at bespoke kitchen company Barnes of Ashburton, agrees. “If you can accommodate a central island, scale it down and create a sociable place for guests to perch,” she suggests. “If the size of your kitchen won’t allow a fixed island, a butcher’s trolley is a stylish alternative, providing additional storage and worktop space.” “I’ve seen some incredibly odd-shaped kitchens, but what made them stand out is how the owners accessorise them just like any other room with lamps on counters, art on walls, and colourful heaps of recipe books. “It’s a good trick because, rather than focusing on the shape, your eye focuses on the cool accessories.”

SPACE STARVED Make the most of the space you do have available - from the floor to the ceiling. “Too many wall units can make the kitchen feel cluttered as this is where the eye is drawn first. Choose tall wall units that provide plenty of space without taking up too much room. Clever shelving, racks, hooks, stacking systems etc help to keep your kitchen tidy and work surfaces clutter-free.

TRAVEL

AMAZING PLACES It’s pitch black as we set off in a small wooden boat along a tributary of the Samiria River, deep in the Amazon basin. The low hum of the outboard motor is drowned out by a cacophony of strange sounds made by the many nocturnal species living in Peru’s northern jungle region. Our guide, a local from one of the nearby villages, skims the surface of the water with a search light. Suddenly the boat stops.

I can see two shiny spheres, like giant marbles, floating on the calm water. In one fell swoop our guide - skilfully balanced on the bow of the boat lunges forward and throws out a noose. A caiman, a reptile from the alligator family, is thrashing about in a desperate bid to break free. The guide tapes its mouth and gently binds its feet.

Calm is restored and the caiman can only lie subdued on the bow while we gather round.

30

THE AMAZON First, we weigh the caiman with a portable scale. Then we measure its length, breadth, the size of its head and check its sex. It’s a female, about two years old and, in my mind, it looks big!

Hands still shaking - I was the one who had to measure its head - I write down the data, while the guide releases the unharmed caiman back into the river.

Catching wild animals might sound like madness, but there is good reason for our actions. I’ve travelled to the Pacaya-Samiria National Reserve in northern Peru as part of an Earthwatch Institute expedition. Along with 11 other volunteers, I’m here to help researchers survey the wildlife so they can monitor the health of the aquatic and terrestrial habitats.

Prior to this trip, I’d never been on a volunteering holiday. But I was keen to get involved in something that would make a difference, however small. Tour operator Kuoni offer a variety of responsible holiday programmes all over the world as part of their Ananea programme, which has grown in response to customers’ demands for more experiential holidays.

I opted for Earthwatch, an international environmental charity conducting biodiver-

sity surveys in Peru’s Samiria river basin.

Data about the population and health of animals in this flooded forest ecosystem is an important indicator of the impact of global climate change and can also be used to help establish new protected areas in the rainforest.

During my week in the jungle, I will help to count grey and pink river dolphins, capuchin monkeys, bats and brightly-coloured macaws. We will even catch and weigh piranha, which requires a deft touch and thick gloves due to their sharp teeth.

Earthwatch will use the data we collect to help develop sustainable conservation strategies for the reserve whilst also considering the needs of the indigenous people. The Samiria reserve covers more than 8,000 square miles and is rich in biodiversity but is also home to more than 42,000 people and 94 communities.

The local communities are self-sufficient and use the forest’s resources for food, medicine, building homes and canoes. But the increase in population and the depletion of the forest’s natural gifts is putting a strain on resources.

Earthwatch studies the impact of hunting in the region by looking at the numbers

of deer, peccaries and other animals that are hunted by local communities, compared with non-hunting areas.

The man largely responsible for setting up the Peru project is Dr Richard Bodmer, a British ecology expert from the University of Kent and the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE).

He knows the Amazon inside out and was also instrumental in lovingly restoring the Ayapua steam boat, our home for our six-day adventure.

Hamburg. She was then towed from Germany to South America.

The 33-metre boat boasts a long, proud history of navigating the Amazon.

She was built in 1906 by a German company and was located in the port city of 31

HOME IMPROVEMENTS

10 TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR HOME With property prices continuing to rise and recent increases in interest rates starting to bite, many homeowners are deciding to stay put rather than move. Here are our top 10 tips to improve your home this year.

2

CONVERT YOUR LOFT SPACE TO AN ADDITIONAL ROOM One of the most popular ways of adding space, a loft conversion can increase a property’s value by as much as 20 per cent.

1

1

3 38 116

CONVERT A GARAGE TO AN ADDITIONAL ROOM Converting garages into living space, and is fast becoming the in thing in some metropolitan areas, owing to pressure on space.

ADD AN EXTENSION Provided it is well built and in keeping with the rest of your property, an extension can add significant value. It will almost certainly be an easier (and hence less expensive) option than a basement.

For all enquires contact Diamond Home Improvements 01202 733775 | www.diamondhome.co.uk | info@diamondhome.co.uk

4

FIT DOUBLE GLAZING Double glazing is a must for many potential purchasers.

Replacement windows should be in keeping with your home, they can detract from its value otherwise.

6

UPDATE YOUR KITCHEN Updating your kitchen will certainly add hugely to appeal, provided it is well fitted, of reasonable quality and as timeless as possible in design.

For all enquires contact First Class Kitchens of Ferndown 01202 875885 | www.firstclasskitchens.co.uk | sales@firstclasskitchens.co.uk

5

ADD A BATHROOM Convert a bedroom into a bathroom, rather than building a new bathroom as part of a loft conversion or extension.

8

INSTALL CENTRAL HEATING Many older homes still lack central heating. Install it and you’ll make your property more saleable. Be sure to choose an energy-efficient system.

For all enquires contact JC Gas Co 01202 723283 | www.jcgas.co.uk

7 9

IMPROVE YOUR BATHROOM Gone are the coloured suites of yesteryear; today, the only colour is white. Avoid fancy taps, lurid tiles and anything gold-plated.

OBTAIN PLANNING PERMISSION A property with planning permission usually commands a higher price than one without, obtaining planning permission, can be a great way of maximising your property’s value.

10 For all enquires contact Ken Parke Planning 01202 496571 | www.kenparkeplanning.com| info@kppcltd.co.uk

BUILD AN OUT BUILDING An outbuilding, will almost always add value. They offer an excellent alternative to an extension and still add an extra room to your house.

FINANCE

HOW TO GET THE BEST MORTGAGE DEAL REPAYMENT MORTGAGES These can also be called ‘capital and interest’ repayment mortgages. You grad ally pay off the amount you borrowed over the term of the loan, together with interest. You make one payment each month to your lender. Part of it goes towards repaying the interest that your lender charges and part goes towards repaying some of the money you originally borrowed. Repayment mortgages guarantee that the whole loan is repaid by the end of the term, making them a low-risk option.

INTEREST-ONLY MORTGAGES With interest-only schemes you only pay back the mortgage interest during its term. Your payments to your lender will go towards repaying the interest charged - you don’t actually repay any of the money you originally borrowed (the capital). This means you should simultaneously make other arrangements for paying back the capital. This typically involves paying a separate monthly amount into an investment (such as a stocks and shares Isa).

However, there is no guarantee that the investment will grow enough to pay off the mortgage in full at the end of the term. If the gamble doesn’t pay off, you will face a shortfall when you come to repay your mortgage. You also end up paying more interest overall on an interest-only mortgage as you are paying interest on the whole loan for the whole term.

ENDOWMENTS In the past, interest-only mortgages were more commonly linked with endowment policies as a repayment vehicle. Endowments are classed as ‘risky’ products because they’re investments related to the performance of the stock market. There’s always the possibility that if the stock market doesn’t grow enough, your investment might not become big enough to pay off the total amount of your mortgage. Many people still have either, all or part of an existing mortgage that is dependent on an endowment policy. Some are facing shortfalls on their mortgage when it matures because their endowment won’t be providing as much as was promised. Because of their poor history, endowments are now rarely, if ever, recommended for interest-only mortgages. If your endowment policy hasn’t increased enough to pay off your mortgage, you will need to find some other way to pay off this part of your mortgage.

INTEREST ONLY UP TO 80% LOAN TO VALUE! With most lenders pulling out of Interest Only mortgages or putting severe restrictions on them we have access to this fantastic intermediary only product! This mortgage offers an initial interest only period of 3 years and will appeal to anyone who has a mortgage over £100,000, and who want to minimise the monthly payments in the first 3 years of their mortgage term. After that time it will revert to a repayment mortgage. This is based on a 25 year repayment mortgage of £100,000 on a property valuation of £166,670. These are illustrations of what you might expect: Fixed Rate 3.09% up to 80% Loan To Value Interest Rate

BOOKCASE

THE BOOKCASE A look at the latest book releases, unwrapped, laid bare and reviewed.

HARVEST BY JIM CRACE

8/10

Harvest is published in hardback by Picador, priced £16.99 (ebook £7.26). Available now.

Her well-drawn central characters explore the mechanics of loneliness and despair...

The title Harvest does little to convey the myriad of concepts at the core of this compelling tale. Change, progress, acceptance - they’re all here, woven skilfully by award-winning writer Jim Crace into a timeless story that everyone can relate to. In this, we’re taken through a week-long journey of life in an unnamed English village set sometime in the medieval age, told through the eyes of widower Walter Thirsk. After harvesting season ends, a group of strangers arrive, and the suspicion they provoke in the villagers eventually leads into a series of events that change the inhabitants’ lives forever. Thought-provoking and poetically written with a profound attention to detail, Crace creates an intriguing moral fable that will stay with you long after you’ve finished the last page. It’s certainly another enchanting novel to add to his growing catalogue of best-sellers.

Review by Mary Ann Pickford

7/10 HUMAN REMAINS BY ELIZABETH HAYNES Human Remains is published in paperback by Myriad, priced £7.99 (ebook £6.07). Available now.

How well do you know your neighbours? Would you notice if you didn’t see them for a while - or be unaware that anything was amiss until a bad smell began to linger?

Those are the questions that this pacy new thriller, in which a policewoman discovers that dozens of people aren’t found until months after death, aims to answer. Is there something sinister going on? In this - her third thriller in as many years - Elizabeth Haynes plays with society’s mistrust of the loner. Her well-drawn central characters explore the mechanics of loneliness and despair, while the action - and there’s enough of that - taps into the deep-seated fear of dying alone. From the gruesome opening gambit to the thrilling denouement, this might not be one for the fainthearted (or lonely), but it’s very hard to leave it alone.

THE LIBRARY OF UNREQUITED LOVE

BY SOPHIE DIVRY

Review by Sarah Warwick

4/10

The Library of Unrequited Love is published in hardback

by MacLehose Press, priced £10 (ebook £6.33) Available now.

Sophie Divry's first novel is a conversation between a librarian and a reader who she finds has been locked inside the library overnight - except only the librarian's dialogue is recorded.

The librarian loves her job but is bitter that she is running the geography section in the basement rather than the exciting history shelves. She explains the Dewey system to her customer in detail and laments that regular library user Martin fails to respond to the fact she loves him - despite only having spoken to him once. At 92 pages, this is easy to read. But it's also easy to put down, as the librarian's ramblings are annoying and her bizarre ideas are distracting rather than thought-provoking. This really could have worked but, unfortunately, it doesn’t.

Review by Caroline Davison

7/10 CHILDREN’S BOOK OF THE WEEK: INFINITE SKY BY CJ FLOOD Infinite Sky by CJ Flood is published in hardback

by Simon & Schuster, priced £9.99 (ebook £5.99).

Available now.

Infinite Sky is a poignant coming-of-age debut from writer CJ Flood. It tells the story of 13-year-old Iris’s summer after her mother leaves home and gypsies set up camp behind her house. The book starts with a funeral, leaving the reader guessing whether it will be her new gypsy boyfriend or tearaway brother in the coffin. When the book comes full circle at the end, only the stoniest of hearts won’t feel the pain experienced by the young protagonist. Aimed at a young adult audience, Infinite Sky is gripping but realistic. It goes much further than your typical teen love story, unravelling the complexity of real-life romances, as opposed to the sugar-coated fantasy we have become accustomed to. The book has already received glowing reviews, and it’s not hard to see why. Infinite Sky flows nicely from page to page and is an easy, heart-felt, engaging read for teenage or twenty-something readers.

LOCAL AUTHOR ANDREW TOWNING ACTION-THRILLER AUTHOR

We’re introduced to the colourful bunch of misfits that constitute her newsroom colleagues and get a warts ‘n’ all glimpse of tabloid life

www.andrewtowning.co.uk enquiries@andrewtowning.co.uk Andrew has been an author of action-thrillers since 2006.

His first novel ‘The Constantine Legacy’ took two years to write and over 200 applications to various publishers before a deal was secured in America. He has since written three more novels in the Jake Dillon series, ‘Dead Men Don’t Bite’, Shroud of Concealment’ and the most recent, the eagerly awaited ‘Chimera Code’ which was published in December 2012. The ‘Chimera Code’ took Andrew on a new journey – one of self-publishing, and he watches with interest while the powers of social media, and the intrigue in Jake’s latest adventures from his ever-growing international fan-base reflect in the popularity of the new book. Andrew is based in the UK on the south coast in Dorset and those who know the area virtually ‘live’ the action scenes surrounding the stunning Poole Harbour, as they do with all the settings of Jake’s exploits around the world from Santorini to Marrakech. Andrew writes with passion, energy, soul, intellect and just enough irreverence in the face of the establishment to undeniably connect with readers off the pages of any one of his fantastic novels, most of which have recently been reprinted.

8/10 THE DIARIES OF A FLEET STREET FOX The Diaries Of A Fleet Street Fox is published in paperback by Constable, priced £8.99 (ebook £5.55). Available now.

Having built up a huge following for her acerbic blog and tweets, The Fleet Street Fox has now outed herself as former Sunday Mirror reporter Susie Boniface, a tabloid hack for nearly 20 years. Her first book promises to be The Truest Tabloid Tale You’ll Ever Read but first and foremost, it’s the tale of her messy divorce from the man she calls only ‘Twatface’. The book starts with her in a cell, having been arrested for throwing a flower pot through the window of the woman her husband is cheating on her with. Each chapter is headed with the number of days since this incident, sparked when Boniface channelled all her reporter skills into exposing her wayward husband and tracking him down. We’re introduced to the colourful bunch of misfits that constitute her newsroom colleagues and get a warts ‘n’ all glimpse of tabloid life - and the trials of divorce. She’s a feisty one and is at her y funniest when using her husband’s toothbrush to clean the toilet eor acdescribing Leg tin stan Con But her endless the games, banter and general drunkenness of the newsroom.

The stream of consciousness over why her husband was so mean, while at first is refreshing, can become laboured towards the end, when you’re rooting for her to move on, finally get over him and embrace singledom.

Review by Kate Whiting

PONDLIFE: A SWIMMER’S JOURNAL BY AL ALVAREZ Pondlife: A Swimmer’s Journal is published in hardback by Bloomsbury, priced £14.99 (ebook £9.44).

Available now.

Age is creeping up on Al Alvarez, and is bringing with it a fair few surprises which he’s finding tough, particularly his declining mobility and fitness. However, there are two things he can still do - writing, and swimming in London’s Hampstead and Highgate ponds. The premise of the book is simple: Alvarez, an established poet, novelist and essayist, documents his regular, sometimes daily, visits to the ponds, with snippets of his life on dry land. As age continues to take its toll, his al fresco dips become ever more vital. Therapeutic, they soothe his gammy ankle and aching bones, revive his sense of control over his ever-changing body, and provide crucial, albeit mini, bursts of adrenalin for a man who once got his kicks by climbing mountains. This is particularly so for the winter swims - Alvarez prefers the pond icy and crisp. Indeed, Alvarez’s subtle observations of his surroundings, the birds he shares his pond with, fellow swimmers, lifeguards and his family, and anything else that fleetingly crosses his path, are beautiful.

No matter what havoc the years wreak on his body, his attention to detail, and knack for capturing in words the consuming link between the physical and mental, are possibly at their strongest ever. Alvarez writes as an ageing athlete, an adventurous soul forced to adapt to the limitations of his octogenarian body. Pondlife is no doubt an insightful, honest account of getting old, speckled with humour and affection. But his sentiments ring true on a much wider level too. As a reader a good four decades younger than Alvarez, his journal had me gripped, moved and yearning for a swim.

INTERVIEW

the specific lifestyle promotion required.” After 20 years at the forefront in this sector, Waterside is generally considered the first port of call for buying, selling, renting or letting waterfront homes.

HOW DID THE WATERSIDE STORY BEGIN?

WHAT MAKES WATERSIDE PROPERTIES DIFFERENT?

The mid 1980’s saw the beginning of a boom in the development of marina villages along the south coast of England. Copying the successful models in Spain and the south of France, such as Port Grimaud, Baie des Ange and Empuria Brava, the idea of living by the water with your boat moored close by became transferable to our own coastline. Martin Edgar, an estate agent from Wimbledon, and Peter Halliday, a yacht broker from Hamble, recognised the trend and teamed up to develop a marketing platform for buyers and sellers of such homes.

Waterside is not your average estate agent. We do what our name suggests – we are the market leader in the sale and letting of waterside homes. Not just properties with a water view, but more broadly properties in communities in a sea or riverside location.

Waterside Properties’ networked offices are in the heartland of UK sailing and a popular coastal region for second homers, investors, retirees or those who just seek the waterside lifestyle. Waterside also sells boats, moorings and waterfront businesses. We also work with developers offering a wide range of new homes in the UK and overseas.

Since then Waterside has developed a network of offices along the coast and by affiliation across the country and overseas selling and letting marina, coastal and riverside homes.

Group Managing Director, Peter Halliday commented that the specialisation of property type has proved the successful factor in the development of Waterside as a company and a brand. “We were focused on giving these properties a route to market. The specific attributes of similar properties marketed by general agents would tend to get lost in the mix, missing

Five minutes with...

Will Wright Will Wright talks to House about their new office in Southbourne and what makes Waterside different to other Estate Agents.

Being focused in our market sector means we can offer our clients a marketing edge in the sale or letting of their waterside assets.

We go where others don’t, whether to exhibitions, including the major boat shows, lifestyle advertising or PR, all of which are supported by state of the art systems and websites and our unrivalled level of service. Our broad-based advertising draws in interest from the major cities, national and international business as well as the private sector.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SOUTHBOURNE AS THE LOCATION FOR THE LATEST BRANCH? There is a lot of investment going into Southbourne and the surrounding areas at the moment. We see it as an expanding market with great potential for sales and rentals. Up until now there has been a gap in our office coverage of the stretch of coastline between Poole and Southampton, and we wanted to fill this gap with a new office dedicated to this area.

WHY DO YOU OPT FOR POSITIONING OFF THE HIGH STREET? All of our office locations are off the high street and are on, or a stone’s throw away, from the water.

58

ADVERTISING FEATURE

We like to base our offices in the locations where we aim to sell and let. Technology is now the main driver for business and is pushing estate agency forward into a new way of thinking and working.

Because of this Waterside do not see the high street as the best place to be and look at different ways of differentiating ourselves from the competition.

WILL, WHAT’S YOUR BACKGROUND AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WITH WATERSIDE? I have been with Waterside Properties since 2007 working in our Port Solent, Ocean Village and Hythe Marina offices. I started as a Sales Negotiator and progressed to Senior Lettings Negotiator then Office Manager. Before Waterside Properties I studied Marketing & Business at Derby University and went on to managing watersport centres for Mark Warner in their many overseas locations.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING ABOUT THE EXPANSION, HAS IT ALL GONE SMOOTHLY? Moving or setting up a new office always has it’s teething problems but the residents of the area have been very supportive and welcoming, and have done what they can to assist. Now with

everything in place I am looking forward to a busy summer, building the sales and rentals from Bournemouth to Milford on Sea. TIMES ARE TOUGH FOR ESTATE AGENTS AT THE MOMENT, BUT YOU SEEM TO BE BUCKING THE TREND AND TAKING THE LEAP INTO EXPANDING, BUSINESS MUST BE GOOD? Waterside prides itself on its friendly and professional staff who work hard to ensure that we are always giving the best service and proving real value for our customers, whether they are vendors, landlords or tenants.

Waterside has had to adapt to the changing market – we now have a superb rental portfolio and have seen an increase in sales activity over the last year. We believe that with the correct work ethic and marketing we will continue to succeed in the current market.

of offices we can offer vendors and landlords something different and give the properties on the waterfront an added boast by bringing clients in from further afield. Setting the office up in the spring is the perfect time of year as this is when the properties on the waterfront are at their most appealing and with the summer on the horizon, buyers start looking for that lifestyle move.

DO YOU HAVE ANY PLANS TO KEEP EXPANDING? IF SO WHERE NEXT?

HOW DO YOU SEE THE SALES MARKET DEVELOPING THIS YEAR, DO YOU THINK THINGS ARE PICKING UP? Over the last year we have seen an increase in lifestyle buyers and the interest in marina and coastal properties has definitely increased.

However, we are under no illusion – the market is still tough. The key is correct pricing and a proactive approach to marketing, and with that in place we are achieving the results.

Waterside Properties is always looking to expand, whether by adding to their current office network or taking on affiliate offices. We are targeting the whole of the UK coastline concentrating mainly on the South Coast.

WHY DID YOU FEEL THAT NOW WAS THE RIGHT TIME TO EXPAND? The rentals market is growing fast and sales are on the rise. All of our branches are bucking the trend with a great rentals portfolio and increased sales activity. The Bournemouth coastline has been an area we have wanted to target for a long time, we believe that with our marketing and network

INTERIORS

AMAZING SPACES Set in the heart of the beautiful New Forest and representing a new style of country hotel, THE PIG is the baby sister of the nearby Lime Wood Hotel & Spa, but with a little attitude!

THE PIG BROCKENHURST The antithesis of the traditional, tweedy country house hotel, the offering here is contemporary and chic, yet totally relaxed. The building itself dates back to the 17th century and while the facade is of a traditional hunting lodge, Judy’s interior is an eclectic mix of furnishings and styles.

enormous pike over the fireplace; the sitting room characterised by raw brickwork and trompe-l’oeil aged plaster walls and the library enhanced by quirky book wallpaper and a book collection that includes everything from tomes on New Forest wildlife through to practical accounting!

Eschewing the look of the over designed properties that proliferate the nation, here it’s all about shabby chic: homely, muted colours, comfy chairs, big sofas and roaring fires. Within these walls guests will find recycled distressed antiques sitting alongside painted pine pieces; virtually no two pieces of furniture are alike. Uncompromisingly comfortable in its own skin, THE PIG is warm, laid back, interesting and fun!

THE PIG’s 26 bedrooms are a continuation of a theme evolved rather than designed. Here you will find assorted furnishings, great beds, oversized showers, ‘larders’ stocked with snacks and drinks, espresso machines and, with every room having a forest or garden outlook, naturally beautifully views.

The relaxed style carries on through to the communal areas: the dark green bar 60 with its stuffed boars’ heads and

These unique offerings provide a mix of accommodation, ideal for families, couples and anyone looking for a touch of luxury combined with homely charm.

The theme continues into the gardens

where informal areas have been created where guests can kick back and relax over a glass – or two – and even savour some al fresco dining courtesy of the wood fired oven in the courtyard.

A gentle stroll down the gravel paths will lead to further surprises: a walled kitchen garden, fruit cage, wild flower meadow orchard, smoke house, chicken and pig houses.

Finally to the garden pond, location of THE PIG’s ‘potting shed’. An original garden shed, it has been transformed into a single treatment room with charming features such as the rake-turned-curtain rail. Here guests can enjoy massage treatments courtesy of Lime Wood’s experienced therapists.

MACK’S CRAIC The JACK fm presenter talks about life as a radio presenter

I’ve been working on the air at a lot of different radio stations around the UK lately and it’s been quite a steep learning curve. Next week, it’ll be twenty-one consecutive days broadcasting on five different radio stations, all in different parts of the country and sometimes two stations in different cities on the same day.

Each radio station has its own quirks and twice I’ve been caught out by the double glazing that separates studios. At JACK fm, I looked through the glass into a darkened room and got the fright of my life when a bald head popped up and looked back at me. It was the presenter on a different radio station in the same building. He liked to work in the dark and as I like as much light as possible in the studio, I bet my frightened face looked scarier to him than his did to me. It was a lot like that scene in Jaws when they’re diving on the wreck of that sunken boat at night and a severed head bobs into shot. I reacted the same way as I did when I first saw the film but unlike that night in 1975 at the ABC Cinema in Warrington, I didn’t drop my Kia-Ora Orange. The other time a studio’s double glazing caught me out this week was even more embarrassing but I’ll save that till the end of this Craic.

Broadcast mixing desks are all set up differently. If the microphone fader is on the left at one station, I can almost guarantee it’ll be on the right at the next one. BBC stations use a different computer playout system to commercial stations and each station has its own format with tight time windows that you have to hit for live crosses to weather and traffic reporters. These windows are at different “standard” times in different hours on each station but bizarrely are often the same reporters. Every station has it’s own on-air phone and text numbers for me to memorize or write down on a piece of paper that I fumble for with seconds to spare before I give them out on the air and the pronunciation of local place names follows no common rules.

The hardest thing is doing two shows on different stations in one day. Apart from the driving, I have to switch mindsets from the one in the morning to the one in the afternoon. They can have very different formats. Some shows I do, like Drivetime on BBC London 94.9, are all speech and news, covering very serious topics. I’ll interview cabinet ministers live from Westminster and the victims of crime, but others like JACK fm are mostly music and I’m expected to add comedy. Sometimes what I do on the air is so different that I bet if you listened to two of my shows online on the same day, you’d think there must be two broadcasters called Graham Mack.

OK, so that other time I got caught out by studio double glazing? At BBC Hereford and Worcester I saw a familiar face on the other side of the glass, waved, then realized I was waving at my own reflection! Craic on!

INTERIORS

MAKE A GRAND ENTRANCE You’re not alone if you walk into your home and your spirits wilt as you’re greeted by a jumble of coats, shoes and bags, as the hallway is generally the most neglected area in the home.

WONDER WALLS A hallway is usually such a small area in a home that you can let loose and try a bold pattern paper or a colour you might be too inhibited to use in a main living area. “Painting walls a bright or darker shade half-way up a wall, dividing with a dado rail if desired, and then using a lighter shade for the upper half of the wall which reaches the ceiling will make a hallway look more spacious,” advises Charlotte Hedeman Gueniau, author of Happy Home. Add impact, she suggests, by removing carpet and painting an entire staircase, and stencil decorative or amusing words on each riser to bring instant character to the space. Be aware this will make stairs noisier though.

Little Greene London’s Wallpapers III collection starts from £49 a roll. Harlequin Folia wallpapers, from ¬£39 a roll, also have interesting designs and extensive colour combinations.

£69 per roll, from the Spellbound wallpaper collection, Graham & Brown.

STORE SOLUTIONS

WALK THE FLOOR It’s essential to have hard-wearing flooring in a hall - a high traffic area. “Floor tiles come in such a wide range of colours, textures and finishes these days that they’re becoming increasingly popular for halls,” says Claire O’Brien, trend manager for British Ceramic Tile.

“Natural stone tiles are an ideal way to create a timeless, opulentlooking hall. For a real statement, combine natural stone with a French pattern design, to emphasise the shade variation of the tiles.

“Alternatively, choose a rustic-looking floor tile that can flow through the entire downstairs to achieve a sense of bringing the outdoors in. A muted, organic colour scheme with moulded borders and wood cladding will create a hallway full of warmth and character.” Tiles start from around £22 per square metre.

If members of the family discard their possessions haphazardly as soon as they're through the front door, there's an urgent need for storage that's so easy to use they can't ignore it.

"Stopping a trail of belongings littering a hallway can be a thankless task, so the space needs equipping so it's userfriendly," says Clotilde Passalacqua at Ikea. "A cupboard for shoes, a generous amount of hooks or a coat rack, as well as a slim storage unit for hiding away seasonal items such as Wellingtons, hats and gloves as well as sports kit can transform a space."

A Bissa shoe cabinet, with two compartments, £20, and a Malm chest of six drawers, £85, www.ikea.com

INTERIORS

SHINE A LIGHT

88

Effective lighting is essential in a hall, which is a functional space where guests are greeted and you make last-minute preparations before leaving the house. “Wall lights are great space savers and perfect for hallways,” says Laura Pagan, co-founder and buying director of lighting specialists Pagazzi. “They generate a welcoming, friendly atmosphere and, spaced apart correctly, they can also create the illusion of a lit pathway. “Wall lights can also be used to highlight any art or pictures you

HALLWAY DESTINATIONS may have displayed. Picture lights could make a feature of a painting or photos and create a gallery feel to the space.”

Make a small hallway appear larger by using uplighter wall brackets, she suggests. These will bounce light onto the ceiling and walls, in turn creating the illusion of a bigger space.

A glow of light at the end of a hallway, she advises, will pull the eye towards it and make a space appear longer. This can be done with a statement floor lamp, while table lamps work well on slim console tables.

ASK THE PROPERTY EXPERT HMRC WARNING ON SECOND HOMES The HMRC have given a deadline to all property owners who received a rental income either here in the UK or abroad. This applies to any property that is not a main residence, including holiday homes. They have pledged to crack down on any buyto-let property owners who are trying to get away with capital gains tax avoidance.

Marian Wilson, head of HMRC campaigns, said: “Some people will not understand that selling a second home, a holiday home or a property disposed of as a gift could attract Capital Gains Tax”.

HMRC can find out about sales of property from land registry records, advertising, changes in reporting of rental income, stamp duty land tax (SDLT) returns, capital gains tax (CGT) returns, bank transfers and other ways. People have until August 9 to tell HMRC about any unpaid capital gains tax on property sales and must pay any tax owed by September 6. Until this date, fines will be smaller for those who haven’t paid their tax. It is hoped this will encourage more landlords to come clean.

Marian Wilson advises: “It is better to come to us before we come to you. After the opportunity closes on 6 September, HMRC will use information it holds about property sales in the UK and abroad to identify people who have not paid what they owe. Penalties or even criminal prosecution could follow.” People don’t need to be concerned about the sale of their main home, which is usually exempt from CGT. If you have any questions on this or other aspects on rental management then please contact Move On 01202 711169 or email info@moveonrentals.com.

You can follow us on our blog through out website www.moveonrentals.com, on twitter and now Facebook. If you would like to receive our free newsletter with up to date advice on the Industry news and legislations then please email us on info@moveonrentals.com and ask to be added.

These possibilities bring this range of blinds an added functionality that is just not possible to achieve with any other blind currently on the market.

BlocOut® is the first blind to have been independently thermally tested by the BBA and has been proven to save up to 43% on heat loss. As it is a cordless system, it is Child-Safe too.

No Drilling and No Mess, with an EasyFit system.

Thanks to the patented Bloc® GuideDog System, The Easy Fit range of Bloc Blinds is the first in the world that can be fitted by complete DIY novices.

In fact not only can you choose from a comprehensive range of fabrics to suit your decor you can provide us with a family photo or perhaps a landscape of your choice or maybe your child has a favourite hobby and we can print it to the blind!

A designer has constructed a chandelier made entirely from gummy bear sweets. The brightly coloured chandelier, dubbed the 'Candelier' is 31" diameter and made from over 8500 gummy bears. However, the artist, Kevin Champeny hasn't used real sweets but moulded them from handcast acrylic, which can take him several months to complete. The light comes in two sizes, the largest uses over 8500 gummy bears and costs £4000 ($6500.00) whereas the smaller version, which takes three weeks to make, uses approximately 3000 sweets and costs £1490 ($2400). Mr Champeny of New York said: "I sculpted the original gummy bear and produced a silicone rubber mould, which enabled me to hand cast all of the gummy bears myself in my studio.Kevin created the 'Candelier' for home furnishings company Jellio. He has even installed a 'Candelier' on the set of Nickelodeon TV show "i-Carly" after producers fell in love with it.

HOW TO USE GRAVEL IN YOUR GARDEN THIS SPRING There are many uses for gravel in your garden other than just surfacing large areas. Mulching, laying as a pathway, or even creating a focal point with a pair of chairs and table. The real charm of gravel is that it comes in many different forms yet they can all be retailed under the same name. Landscaping gravel can be sold as pea gravel, horticultural grit, decorative gravel, coarse-grade stone chippings, stone aggregate and even shingle. And as it ranges from different source materials so the colours available differ as well. Depending on what application you have in mind and what has already been established within your garden setting so far, why not pop down and see us, you are sure to find a landscaping gravel suitable.

My day didn’t start too well.

Everything had got on top of me and I felt really low. When I called the Macmillan Support Line, I didn’t know where to start. But somehow they helped me find the words.

Just talking honestly about how I felt was such a relief. Now I don't have to cope with the bad days on my own.

HOME IMPROVEMENTS

DIY EXPERT Get those jobs done with a little help from ‘Big Al; our resident DIY expert.

As well as major home improvements likely to add value and make your home more sellable, there’s a lot you can do to make it more appealing to buyers without spending too much. It’s said that neutral decor sells homes and, of course, it does because neutral colours aren’t offensive to the eye and if buyers want to inject colour and pattern, it’s easy to imagine doing so.

Neutral doesn’t, by any means, have to be bland and boring - it’s all about how you put the look together with accessories, flooring and furniture. Even if neutral isn’t your taste, it’s the safest bet for sale, as anything else is more subjective. However, it’s not just neutral walls and ceilings that have wide appeal - flooring is also important. Forget patterned carpets and lino (unless it’s fashionable stripes) and replace any dated or tatty floor coverings with plain and neutral ones - they needn’t be expensive. It’s easy to live with unfinished DIY jobs, but once you’ve decided to put your home on the market, dodgy DIY is a no-no. It can put off buyers and make them think they’ll need to spend more time and money finishing the work than they necessarily will.

If you can’t do the jobs yourself, get a pro in - it will be money

MAKE YOUR HOME STAND OUT well spent. Even if you’ve finished the DIY, you need to keep on top of it because things deteriorate. Common problems include marks on walls that won’t scrub off, hairline cracks that keep opening and chipped painted woodwork. Things like this can make your home look shabbier than it needs to, so going from room to room with a fresh eye and putting right the problems is time well spent.

It’s also worth scrutinising the outside of your home. Exterior maintenance is easy to overlook, but it’s something a buyer’s survey will pick up on, so it’s worth pre-empting any remedial work, as it could save you time, money and hassle.

Not maintaining the exterior of your home can also lead to problems inside, such as damp caused by missing or slipped roof tiles, or blocked guttering.

And don’t forget kerb appeal making a good first impression from outside your home is essential. The good thing about selling in spring and summer is that it’s easy to brighten up the front garden with flowering plants - use tubs, pots and hanging baskets if you don’t have any flowerbeds to put them in. Inside, a neutral, neat and tidy hallway creates a good first impression. If you don’t have a hallway, make sure there’s enough storage for

HOW-TO TIP Unless your home’s worth a lot of money, it may not be costeffective to do major home improvements just to sell it - ask local estate agents if in doubt. The kitchen and bathroom are, of course, key rooms and if you have dated ones but they’re not worth replacing, you can do quick fixes relatively inexpensively, such as fitting new kitchen-unit doors and drawer fronts, replacing dated taps and re-whitening grubby tile grout.

coats, shoes, hats and scarves, etc, preferably out of sight.

Giving your home a really good clean - and cleaning, airing and tidying it before every viewing - is a must. If you have lots of personal items on display, most of them should be packed away. While making your home look too sterile won’t help to sell it, having a cluttered home is equally offputting, if not more so, to buyers. Remember, they may look in cupboards and wardrobes, so stuffing these full of things isn’t the solution because it shows you don’t have enough storage space. Instead, create more storage, preferably built in or in the loft, or get the stuff out of the house and into a storage unit, or a garden building - Screwfix has a big range.

Outdoors and in, make the most of the space - put a dining table in the kitchen (as long as it isn’t a squeeze) to turn it into a kitchen-diner, and put the biggest bed you can comfortably fit in each bedroom.

If you have a study or home office and the room would be more valuable as a bedroom, swap the desk for a bed, at least while you sell. The trick is to make your home easy for buyers to imagine as their home, and to move on emotionally so you can move on physically.

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK COOKE & LEWIS KITCHEN DIY chain B&Q has a big presence at this year’s Ideal Home Show in London, including a glam two-tone show kitchen, where there’ll be daily cooking demos.

MOTORING NEWS BEFORE

Expert Alloy Wheel Refurbishers in Dorset The latest news on all things motoring.

By Nick Fletcher

www.silverwheelsltd.co.uk | 01202 896651 AFTER

SPRING CLEAN YOUR CAR! Now is the time to get your car ready for the promise of warmer weather, says GEM. David Williams of GEM says:“Adverse weather conditions can really take their toll on your vehicle, particularly snow and rain. GEM’s spring clean check list: • Wash your car thoroughly, including hosing beneath the wheel arches, where corrosive salty deposits can build up • Having no fluid in your screenwash bottle is illegal, fill up now and keep it topped up at all times • Running on under-inflated tyres reduces their ability to grip, particularly in wet conditions. Make sure yours at least meet the minimum legal tread depth of 1.6mm • Look under the bonnet and check that nothing is blocking the interior air vents, such as dead leaves or clogged up dirt from the winter period • Don’t be afraid to use the air conditioning. When the inside windows get fogged up, turn your air con on, and remember, using it regularly will help maintain it in an optimum condition

ISUZU D-MAX UTAH ROAD TEST The pick-up, once regarded as just a work horse, has over the past decade acquired a new trendy image as a dual-purpose family-and-business vehicle with smart looks and lots of practicality. In double-cab form, they can be a one-vehicle solution for someone who previously needed two, writes NICK FLETCHER. Isuzu has always been a strong name in this sector and its latest model, the D-Max, underlines the duality of purpose, offering rugged power and durability with smart street-looks and an exclusive image.

The D-Max, priced from £17,749 in double-cab form, is big but not unwieldy.

Powered by a willing 2.5-litre four-cylinder twin-turbo diesel engine, it surprises with its crisp acceleration and impressive

fuel economy. There is 163 hp under the bonnet, good enough to haul a one-ton payload and a three-ton braked trailer.

It has touch-button switchable 4WD, and choice of 6-speed manual gearbox or 5-speed automatic. Top speed is 112mph, the 0-60 mph time 11 seconds.

Underway, the engine is admittedly a bit clattery on tickover, but quietens down once you gather speed. The power steering gives good feedback and the auto gearshift on my Utah test model operated very smoothly. The rear seat takes three adults, with good head and legroom. The boot, of course is the exposed pick-up bay, though you can buy an optional lockable hardtop.

Even entry-level versions have a generous specification including multi-

airbags, traction and stability controls, all-round power windows, remote locking, radio/CD, and daytime running lights.

Upper spec models such as my Utah test version (£21,999 with auto transmission) add alloys, Bluetooth, climate control, cruise control, leather upholstery with heated front seats, alarm and useful detail features such as steering wheelmounted switches for the audio unit and cruise control. In town use and with a long motorway trip, I didn’t expect to better the official combined economy figure (with auto gearbox) of 33.2 mpg, but in fact without effort I exceeded it - averaging 40mpg - exceptional for a vehicle of this size and class. The manual transmission figure is 38.2 mpg.

‘HOT’ CLIO PRICES SET In UK showrooms in June, the new Clio Renaultsport 200 Turbo. There will be two versions, with prices starting at £18,995. Highlights include its six-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) gearbox with aluminium gearshift paddles fixed on the steering column (shift time of under 150 milliseconds in Race mode) as well as three driving modes: Normal, Sport and Race (ESC disconnected off and gearshifts solely manual). It’s also got two other features - Launch Control and the world’s first sub-supercar multi-change down function. The new model packs 200hp and has a 0-60 mph time of 6.7 seconds.Features include 17” or 18” Renaultsport alloy wheels, rear diffuser and lip spoiler, and F1-style front blade and rectangular chrome twin exhausts. The sporty touches continue on the inside. Among them are a leather steering wheel, Renault sport front sports seats, bespoke grey instrument backgrounds and aluminium pedals and gearlever. The standard kit list for Clio Renaultsport 200 Turbo offers Air conditioning, Electronic Stability Control and Electronic Traction Control, keyless start and entry, integrated MediaNav seveninch touchscreen, Bluetooth and USB input, along with cruise control, electric door mirrors, Renaultsport front seats, and a speed limiter.

CHOCCYWOCCY! Whether you’re a chocoholic, or only indulge your sweet tooth occasionally, these three recipes will give you a taste of Choccywoccydoodah goodness...

A hefty wedge of cake may not chase your woes away, but football fan Delia reckons the cheap and satisfying process of baking a cake is a great mood lifter. With this in mind, she has brought out a special edition of Delia's Cakes to mark the 35th anniversary of the release of her Book Of Cakes.

Delia's Cakes will include some trusty favourites like old-fashioned cherry cake and coffee and walnut cake, as well as some new recipes.

And 90% of the recipes can now be made using glutenfree alternatives. "The whole affair from start to finish is about supreme unadulter-

ated pleasure," writes Delia of baking. "Or as someone once said, when you offer homemade cake to anyone, it never fails to put a smile on their face. "Actually setting about making a cake, allowing your creative powers to come into play, knowing all those smiles that await you, has a kind of hidden social agenda - it's cheaper than therapy and much more pleasurable."

In these tough times, Delia believes that rather than reaching for shop-bought sweets it's more important than ever to put on our pinnies, crack out our cake tins and begin baking.

RECIPE

Brighton Choccy Rocks Ingredients 2 egg whites 100g caster sugar 75g roasted almonds, roughly chopped

50g milk, white or dark chocolate, chopped 2tbsp cocoa

Method Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4. Whisk the egg whites until they resemble stiff peaks. Gradually whisk in the sugar a spoonful at a time. Fold in the cocoa and almonds, reserving a few nuts for topping the ‘rocks’. Put small spoonfuls of the mixture on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or a heatproof Teflon mat.

Bake for about 15 mins until set and leave to cool on the tray. Melt the chocolate in a bowl, and using a piping bag or fork, drizzle the rocks with melted chocolate. Scatter with the reserved nuts.

RECIPE

MAKES APPROX. 20

Chocolate Palmiers Ingredients Plain flour, for rolling out the pastry 2tsp cinnamon, or other spices according to taste

2tsp caster sugar Egg or milk to glaze ­50g milk chocolate Ready rolled puff pastry

Method Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas mark 6. Roll out the sheet of puff pastry on a well-floured surface until you have a rectangle about the thickness of a £1 coin. Grate the chocolate over it and add the cinnamon or other spices and the sugar.

With the short end facing you, roll one long side of the pastry like a Swiss roll from one side to the middle then repeat, rolling from the other side to the middle, so that you have two tight rolls that sit next to each other, joined. Brush with egg or milk. If you have time, chill in the fridge for 20 mins to make it easier to cut and then slice into 1cm slices and pull the ends out like a tulip. Place the slices flat on a baking sheet, well apart, and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before eating.

RECIPE

Strawberries Dipped In Chocolate

SERVES 4

Ingredients 1 punnet of strawberries 200ml Champagne 100g icing sugar White, milk or dark chocolate

Method Melt the chocolate on a low heat in a microwave or in a heatproof dish over a pan of boiling water. Transfer to a prettier dish if you wish. Dip a strawberry in Champagne, then icing sugar, then the melted chocolate.

Are you fully satisfied with the results you are getting from your facial aesthetic practitioner?

Would you like to find a new facial aesthetic practitioner but don’t know how?

Here is a simple checklist to ensure you avoid some terrible consequences both physically and costly by entrusting the wrong person, it’s your face and you wear it every day, so make sure you give it the best treatment possible.

• The law now states, that you have to undergo a face to face consultation with a prescribing practitioner • You should only be treated by an appropriately trained registered Nurse, Doctor or Dentist • Ask for their medical registration information (Nursing pin number or GMC if you are seeing a Dr) • Does the practitioner have appropriate public liability insurance and does it cover the premises / salon you are being seen in?

• How long have they been carrying out the procedure and how often? Ask to see records / certificates of their training • Be cautious of offers and cheap deals as this can sometimes mean that the treatment is sub standard in order to compensate for the discounts you will be receiving

A facial can be considered a vital step towards healthy skin for both women and men. Our skin is the largest organ in the body which performs functions such as protecting from invasion by foreign substances as well as a mechanism for excretion of toxins from the body. Facials typically include a cleansing procedure, a massage, the application of a facemask and moisturising.

Having a regular facial assists the circulatory system and stimulates the skin. Some argue that it may also help slow down premature aging by increasing awareness of skin care. Keeping your skin hydrated will help keep the skin moist and stop dehydration. Most of all facials are extremely relaxing and great (in combination with massage) for de-stressing.

The massage, which is an important part of a facial, helps blood circulation, which in turn aids lymphatic drainage (the removal of toxins and waste from the body). A massage also relaxes the facial

muscles and is very important to delay the onset of wrinkles.

The application of a facemask in the end helps tone and clarifies the skin.

Choosing an in-salon facial treatment can be a minefield.

With most high street salons offering us a wealth of treatments promising to plump, hydrate and rejuvenate how do you choose the one that is right for you and your skin?

Opposite are my 5 favourite facial treatments including the pros and cons of each:

THE OXYGEN FACIAL Instantly plump and hydrate fine lines with this pure oxygen infusion facial! Pros - Instant quick results! Cons – A series of treatments is needed to maintain results. From £36.00

A FACIAL PEEL Your therapist will choose a Peel strength to suit your skin type and needs. Pros - A great way to improve skin texture and tone, reduce pigmentation and fine lines Cons – Not suitable for sensitive skin types. Can be pricey! From £65.00

THE CLASSIC DERMALOGICA FACIAL You can’t beat a classic deep cleansing facial that includes steaming the skin and extraction of blocked pores. Pro’s – Functional and relaxing Cons – There really aren’t any! From £36.00

NON SURGICAL FACELIFT Micro currents work to lift and firm facial muscles, re -educating the muscles. Pros – Relaxing and impressive results, great for sagging jowls Cons – up to 12 treatments are needed for a permanent result. From £38.95

MICRODERMABRASION Micro crystal technology buffs off dead skin cells creating a smoother, bright and radiant complexion. Pros – Quick, significant results Cons – Not suitable for sensitive skin types.

WELLBEING FIND A YOGA FIT It’s easy to assume that yoga is simply a fashionable pastime for celebrities but there is much more to it than first meets the eye...

FIND A YOGA FIT There are so many styles that it can be baffling to work out which one is right for you. “First ask yourself what you’d like from a class,” says Woodhall.

“You might want de-stress or workout, relax, lose weight, stretch or tone, to follow a meditative or spiritual practice, or any combination of those.”

YOGA PACKS A HEALTHY PUNCH Yoga is credited with bringing a host of health benefits, says Woodhall. “Yoga trains all the muscle groups to work together, sharing the load. This means there’s less likelihood that some become tired or injured through overuse while others weaken or even switch off through underuse,” she explains. It’s also credited with helping reduce blood pressure, regulate hormones and digestion, stabilise weight, improve

sleep and decrease anxiety. Many scientific studies have validated yoga’s antiageing benefits, including the Lifestyle Heart Trial undertaken by San Francisco cardiologist Dr Dean Ornish.

He found that in a group of advanced heart patients, a combination of yoga and a low-fat diet could help shrink the fatty plaque deposits which were progressively blocking their coronary arteries.

Blending acrobatics, yoga and Thai massage - its emphasis is on cultivating trust and playfulness.

BIKRAM A sequence of 26 postures and two breathing exercises done twice over in a carpeted, mirrored studio heated to 105F (40.5C).

HATHA A general term for yoga, combining physical poses, breathing techniques and meditation.

ASHTANGA A physically demanding, flowing style requiring a certain level of fitness and readiness to sweat. Postures are held for a relatively short time and practised in a set sequence.

DID YOU KNOW...

People who do yoga three times a week have higher levels of the brain chemical GABA, which is needed for a calm mind, than those who do the equivalent of strenuous exercise, according to US researchers. Many sports coaches believe yoga helps boost performance mentally by improving concentration and focus, and top athletes including Olympic heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis and British tennis player Andy Murray, as well as many professional football teams and rugby squads, include yoga in training regimes.
