DIVERSE ABILITIES PLUS CALL OUT TO RECRUIT SUPPORT WORKERS In response to the increasing demand for support workers to assist adults with disabilities in the local area, Dorset-based charity Diverse Abilities Plus is expanding its Supported Living service. In light of this the charity is to host a Support Worker recruitment open day on Monday 22 July. It will take place between 4pm and 9pm at its head office in Poole, near Tower Park. The charity currently supports 35 adults and either helps them live in their homes with the assistance of the charity’s dedicated and trained support workers or attend a well-equipped day care centre, where they can earn new skills and enjoy a wide range of experiences. The at-home service Diverse Abilities Plus offers is dedicated to providing adults with disabilities the dignity and choice they deserve, and means they can have their own front door, choose what colour to paint the lounge, how to spend their daily life and much more. Those that require supported living, benefit from having help at home and can live in their everyday environment, but it has been adapted to suit their requirements ensuring they can get on with their life with minimal
support. Mark Powell, CEO of Diverse Abilities Plus, said: “The supported living service we provide is crucial and as the demand for this provision continues to increase, new members of staff are required. Those we support often require one-to-one support up to 24/7 and we urgently need to recruit to offer our service to more adults with disabilities. In addition, many of the children and young people that we support through our other services, may potentially require the Supported Living service in the future, and we are planning for this now.” At the event, attendees will have the opportunity to meet and speak with representatives from the Supported Living service, find out what it is like to work for Diverse Abilities Plus and meet a number of adults currently supported by the charity. Caroline Amey, has lived in her specially adapted bungalow since 2005 and is currently supported by Diverse Abilities Plus. She has used the services of the charity for many years, and went to the charity’s school – Langside when she was younger. Caroline said: “I really like living in my own house. I used to live in a big care home with
lots of other people and I only had a small room there. Now, I have a whole house and a garden. I can now choose what I want to do and when I do it. When I lived with lots of people, I didn’t have the same choice. Now, it’s up to me what I do and I’m much happier, as I have more freedom than before.” The event will be held at the charity’s head office at Unit C, Acorn Business Park, Ling Road, Poole BH12 4NZ. For further information please contact Lee Brady on 01202 718266 or email lee.brady@diverseabilitiesplus.org.uk Mark added: “We are urging local people that wish to become a support worker, or those wishing to further their career, comes along to the open day and find out more.” Diverse Abilities Plus is also fundraising to develop as many supported living bungalows, undertake adaptions and refurbishments required for adults with disabilities to live in. If you would to make a donation to further support adults with disabilities in Dorset, please call 01202 718266 or visit the charity’s website at www.diverseabilitiesplus.org.uk.
COOK Westbourne was recently voted runner-up in the ‘BLOOMING BEAUTIFUL BOURNEMOUTH’ competition, which asked customers to choose their favourite business in Bournemouth! COOK was created 16 years ago, with it's founding principle to cook using exactly the same techniques and ingredients that a good domestic cook would use at home, so everything looks and tastes homemade. Today, nothing has changed and COOK continues to make its meals by hand. As proof of its handmade nature, the name of the individual chef who cooked each dish is printed on the packaging. All meals are cooked straight from frozen! Growing through word of mouth (slightly tricky when dinner party hosts claim them as their own). COOK as expanded from a single shop to nearly 70 shops now. The gorgeous shop in Westbourne, which has a 'farmshop' feel about it, is managed and owned by Elaine Sullman and her lovely team, who are only too happy to go the extra mile to help you find the perfect evening meal, dinner party or big event catering. www.cookfood.net/shops/ bournemouth

BENNINGTON GREEN GARDEN PARTY SUCCESS The Bennington Green team were delighted with the turn out for their Champagne Garden Party again this year despite the British Summer weather! The event was held on Thursday at Macmillan Caring Locally’s The Grove Hotel on Bournemouth’s East Cliff. The day started with glorious sunshine with the chance of rain being forecast for later in the afternoon. The event was due to start at 5.30pm and – true to form – at 5pm the rain came. Never to be defeated by the weather, the event was very well attended by approximately 70 people and with the excellent facilities at The Grove in the form of a large conservatory and ample sized lounge, combined with excellent entertainment by Tall Order and Steve Biddle poet, everyone was kept dry and suitably entertained. A raffle and entry fees raised approximately £1,000 for the Macmillan Caring Locally charity. The first garden party that took place last year was initiated by
Nigel to celebrate The Grove’s first anniversary, as Bennington Green project managed development of the site, and the momentum continued again this year. Nigel Soloman, Managing Director of Bennington Green said: “The Grove is the first of its kind in the UK and offers a vital facility to people with life threatening diseases, such as cancer. It enables them and their carers to have a ‘normal’ holiday with the benefit of medical assistance on hand should it be required. A huge thanks to everyone who turned up on the evening.” He added, “Next year we’re looking to entertain 150 people – whatever the weather!” Carlie O’Neill from Tanner & Tilley commented: “This was a fantastic event and it was great to see it well supported. T&T obtained planning on the project so we are now proud to support and enjoy the facilities.” For more information: www.benningtongreen.co.uk 01202 766584

SOMETHING OLD...
SOMETHING NEW If you’re secretly yearning to give your home a charming new look, it’s time to hark back to the past. Remnants of vintage fabrics, old wallpapers, a little imagination and some basic craft skills are all that’s needed to conjure the fashionable atmosphere of a bygone age, according to vintage expert Sarah Moore. 14
MATERIAL MAKEOVER Recycle vintage fabrics and use them to make curtains, duvet and cushion covers, or for jazzy details like a new ironing board cover or towel-edging, suggests Moore. She advises choosing strong materials and washing them in a colour-kind detergent, then ironing them before use. “Mix and match old fabrics with new. Striped ticking, dyed linen and calico sit really well alongside old fabrics,” she says. “Use them for linings, which will allow your vintage finds to go twice as far. SHOP THE LOOK If you can’t face the toil, simply buy a few pieces to give rooms a fast vintage feel. A Lucky Chair, with patchwork effect upholstery, £595, Loaf www.loaf.com.
PAPER IT PRETTY
Rolls of old wallpaper can work wonders pasted onto the interiors of cupboards, or to decorate the risers of wooden stairs, says Moore. “I have a passion for old wallpapers, from the tiniest scraps which can be made into a patchwork for walls, to the Holy Grail of wallpaper finds - rolls and rolls of one pattern of genuine vintage paper.” Old wallpaper used to be rolled with the pattern on the inside, and
required trimming before use, so there’s a high chance you have a vintage find if you spot those signs. SHOP THE LOOK Vintage-style Wooden Suitcase Storage Boxes, from £20 each, available from mid-July, Oliver Bonas www.oliverbonas.com.

BEANBAG PROJECT WHAT YOU’LL NEED Tape measure, paper, pencil and paper scissors for the template. Six panels of upholstery-weight fabric (the size of the beanbag is up to you - they can be square or rectangular and from 50cm square for a child’s size); tailor’s chalk or fabric marker; fabric scissors; six panels of lining fabric (an old sheet or any reclaimed fabric is fine); pins; sewing machine; sewing thread; iron; polystyrene beads to fill the bag (or an old beanbag for reclaimed beans); hand-sewing needle (optional); Velcro strips the same width as the beanbag. 16
Simple beanbags offer a great way of using up smaller pieces of fabric. You could make parts of the cover out of simple patchwork panels, too, says Moore. Make the bottom panel out of a hard-wearing fabric so it can withstand wear and tear. STEP ONE Choose the size of your beanbag, then make a template for each different shaped face - remember to incorporate your chosen seam allowance. For a square, you will need one template with sides that measure the same. Or, for a rectangular beanbag, first draw the template for the top and bottom panels, then use the measurements for the long and short edges to help you create the other two pieces of your pattern. STEP TWO Place fabrics on a table, face down (so that you’re marking the inside of the beanbag), and draw around the pattern pieces
using chalk or a fabric marker. Cut out each panel, apart from the one for the base. For this, add 5cm to each of the longer edges to allow for the hem and opening. Cut out this larger panel, too. Repeat the entire process on the lining fabric, but without allowing the extra 5cm on the base panel. STEP THREE First, make the lining. Pin the panels together, with the right sides facing, to make a cube. Using your sewing machine, sew along all but one of the edges, removing the pins as you go. Then turn the fabric, so the right sides are out, pushing out the corners into a cube shape. Turn in a hem that is the width of your seam allowance on both sides of the open edge, and iron it into place. STEP FOUR Carefully pour the polystyrene beads into the cube until it’s nearly full, then pin together
the turned-in hems. Machine or hand-sew the opening. STEP FIVE To make the outer cube, first lay out the panel with the extra 5cm, longest side towards you, and fold and then cut it in half widthways. Turn over a hem of about 1cm on this newly cut edge and iron it flat to make a hemmed opening. Sew it into place using the sewing machine. Position the Velcro strips on the bottom of one piece and the top of the other, so when they attach you have created a panel the same size as the other five. Sew them in place using the sewing machine. STEP SIX Repeat the pinning and sewing process but, this time, sew all of the seams of your cube. Open the Velcro and turn the cube fabric so the right sides are facing out. Feed in the bean bag and secure the cover shut with the Velcro.

PLANNING THE PREFECT FAMILY BATHROOM
What makes a great family bathroom? According to Rio Barnes of Island Bathrooms, it is crucial that you choose safe, child-friendly fittings, a good quality bath that is the right shape and size for your room, plenty of storage, and materials and surfaces that are easy to clean. If that doesn’t sound very sexy, don’t worry! There’s plenty you can do to make the room both practical and beautiful. 01202 396 778 www.islandbathrooms.co.uk 38
MAKE IT CHILD FRIENDLY There are many things that you can do to ensure your bathroom is a safe and enjoyable environment for your children. • If your children are at a height where they can reach the taps themselves, you can turn down the high temperature of the hot water directly from your boiler. • Thermostatic showers offer precise showering at a regulated temperature to reduce the risk of scalding • Replace glass tumblers with plastic ones, and any bathroom accessories you may purchase try and opt for shatterproof plastic or resin, to avoid breakages. • All children like to play in the bath. Opt for toys and accessories that can be easily stored away when they are not in use - this will automatically give a de-cluttered feel. • Round off any hard cupboard edges with plastic bumpers, to avoid any child height injuries.
TOP TIP: A non-slip bath mat with suction cups is a good investment not just for children but the whole family.

INTERIORS
CHOOSING THE RIGHT BATH OR SHOWER Most families with young children tend to opt for a bath. Showers are great, but unless you have the space for both, a bath is a better bet for a family bathroom. Baths can be multi-purpose by adding a shower and bath screen to create a shower bath. They are also a great focal point to build your bathroom around. This said, when space is at a premium and the family is a
little more grown up we are seeing more and more people opt for just a shower enclosure. A family bathroom can be a very busy environment, especially if it’s the only bathroom, or one shared by several family members. Showers are a great space saver, and a quicker option that might help stop the queues outside the bathroom door.
01202 396 778 www.islandbathrooms.co.uk
WALL HUNG MIRRORS & TOWEL RADIATOR Modernise your bathroom and maximise your wall space with a wall hung mirror, a stylish yet practical addition to any bathroom. At Island Bathrooms we have a large selection of bathroom mirrors available including LED mirrors, heated demister mirrors and even mirrors with radio and IPod connectivity. You want a warm, comfortable bathroom and plenty of space to hang a family’s worth of towels to dry. Make sure you get a towel radiator with plenty of rungs. Opt for one that is 1500mm tall (or more!), or choose a shorter one and set it out of the reach of very young children. 40
01202 396 778 www.islandbathrooms.co.uk
01202 396 778 www.islandbathrooms.co.uk
CHOOSE GLAMOROUS YET PRACTICAL STORAGE Ditch the basin and pedestal, and choose wall-mounted vanity units and storage cupboards. Nothing makes a new bathroom looks messy and unappealing quite like a clutter of bottles, potions and lotions. Make bathroom storage safe by choosing a lockable cabinet or alternatively add child proof cupboard catches to the doors to ensure bottles, medicines and any sharp objects are kept out of harms way. Additionally higher placed shelving units will keep these items well out of reach.

MAKE YOUR BATHROOM PRACTICAL WITH A DOUBLE BASIN Two basins are highly practical if you’ve got kids, but they’re also very fashionable and on the wish list of many prospective future buyers. Double basins add a real sense of luxury and at Island Bathrooms we have double basins to suit every space. Why not have one basin at child height?n.

TRAVEL
UNCOVERING THE SECRETS... IN UMBRIA
There’s a town in the heart of Italy that has everything. Fascinating history, stunning scenery, fantastic food and world-class hospitality... It’s close to Tuscany, but a million miles from the hustle-bustle tourist hotspots of Florence, Siena and Pisa. An off-the-beaten-track treasure, just waiting to be discovered. Welcome to the ancient town of Norcia, population 5,000, in Umbria.
52
Founded 600 years before Rome by the Sabini, an ancient Italic tribe, it’s the birthplace of St Benedict (480-547), father of western monasticism and the patron saint of Europe and students. It’s also home to no fewer than 15 churches. Devastating earthquakes have made their mark. Their frequency even led to an 18th-century law limiting buildings to two storeys, which means Norcia looks like no other town in the region. But perhaps this Italian gem’s biggest attraction is its gorgeous food. Norcia is recognised as the black truffle capital of Italy, the source of the tastiest lentils and some of the finest cheeses, and one of the best places for cured meats. Pork, wild boar, sausages, salamis and a huge range of specialties led to the town lending its name to a brand of Italian cuisine, Norcineria. My visit began with a two-and-a-half hour car journey from Rome. We climbed steadily before arriving in Norcia, which sits 604m above sea level, to find a chill in the air and the main
square - dominated by a huge statue of Saint Benedict - almost deserted. I retreated to the fabulous Palazzo Seneca, built just off the square as a private house in the 16th century. It was bought by the Bianconi family, who spent several years refurbishing, before re-opening it in 2008. The Bianconis - these days led by father Carlo, mother Anna and sons Vincenzo and Federico - have been offering hospitality in Norcia for more than 160 years. They have certainly made their mark on the town, amassing an impressive portfolio of properties, including hotels, a restaurant - the splendidly authentic Granaro del Monte in the Hotel Grotta Azzurra - and a state-of-the-art sports centre. But Palazzo Seneca is the fivestar jewel in the family’s crown. Its narrow stone-floored passageways lead to huge, sumptuously-decorated rooms. They include 19 elegant bedrooms and five luxurious suites, a library and a wellness centre. Away
from the hotel, you are invited to take your pick from activities including white-water rafting, helicopter flights and downhill or cross-country skiing. Dinner in the hotel’s elegant Vespasia restaurant was spectacular. I chose the Norcia & Tradition set menu at 55 euros and indulged in a veritable feast of Umbrian produce. I was served a variety of norcineria that included 28-month cured ham and mature Campi pecorino (sheep’s) cheese. A dish of fresh tagliatelle with local black truffle followed, then delicious spit-roasted lamb from the Sibillini mountains served with Castelluccio lentil souffle. Pudding consisted of “trifle bonbon”, a spectacular vanilla and sponge dish. Breakfast the next morning was a simpler, but equally noteworthy, event. Vincenzo and Federico have devised a menu inspired by their grandmother, Annunziata, a testament to her favourite proverb: “Those who start well are already halfway there.” A huge table groaned

under the weight of fresh fruit, breads, cakes, pastries, cereals, organic jams, honey, cheese and cold meats. After breakfast, we headed outdoors for a trip into the mountains with guide Roberto Canali. As we drove, Roberto described the remote and wildly attractive 70,000-hectare Sibillini National Park, established in 1993. This mountainous region, part of the Apennines, boasts more than 20 peaks over a height of 2,000m, and is home to wild horses and goats, deer, boar, bear, wolves, wildcat, porcupine, eagles, goshawks, sparrowhawks and peregrine falcons. There are few people - we rarely spotted another car or person. We took the road through Piano Grande (Big Plain) towards the 13th-century village of Castelluccio. These fields produce the region’s famous lentils and in spring and early summer they are a blaze of colourful wildflowers. Castelluccio, 28km from Norcia and at 1,452m the high-
est village in the park, looks out towards mighty Monte Vettore, which at 2,476m is the highest peak in the Sibillini. A little further on, we visited the Abbey of St Eutizio, established in the fourth century by Syrian monks who lived in caves. Practising techniques learned from ancient Arabic and Latin documents, with pigs as their ‘patients’, the monks formed one of the oldest surgery schools in Europe. They were well regarded throughout Europe, and St Eutizio surgeons even performed a cataract operation on Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1588. Back in Norcia, we had an appointment at the local monastery. The monks here follow St Benedict’s teachings of “ora et labora” prayer and work, rising at 4am. At 7.45pm, they assemble in the crypt of St Benedict’s Basilica to offer the final prayers of the day accompanied by chanting. A limited number of visitors are allowed to join them. The service is both charming and
slightly eerie. And the work? The monks are accomplished brewers. They produce two interesting beers - a light Bionda (6%) and a threateningly dark Extra (a brain-numbing 10%). After breakfast the next day, we were treated to a cooking lesson by the Palazzo Seneca’s sous chef, Alberto Rini. Alberto, who trained in Rome, Rimini and Lake Garda, started with a demonstration of pasta making - rapidly turning out a dozen different examples. Then he set about preparing a typical hotel meal. Every dish was beautifully cooked, elegantly presented and bursting with fresh flavours. Before I rolled out of his kitchen for a lie down, Alberto introduced his wife and fellow chef, Sara who specialises in breads and pastries. I met up with truffle hunter Nicola Berardi and his two dogs, Luna and Sophie. With the region’s black winter truffles selling for between 1,000 and 1,200 euros a kilo (rarer white truffles, found elsewhere, can fetch 5,000 euros a kilo), this is big business. The party went on for some time. But then, as I had discovered, they and their fellow Norcians have plenty to celebrate.

BOOKCASE
THE BOOKCASE A look at the latest book releases, unwrapped, laid bare and reviewed.
TIME PRESENT & TIME PAST
8/10
Time Present And Time Past by Deirdre Madden is published in trade paperback by Faber and Faber, priced £12.99 (ebook £5.99). Available now
A very readable tale, thanks to some excellent writing and its central character.
Dierdre Madden writes of Ireland’s most recent and pressing past, the castration and self-propelled euthanasia of the celtic tiger. The Orange Prize shortlisted author’s focus is on the Buckley family on the eve of the crash. The everyday lives of Fintan, his wife Colette and their three children occupy the daily drama of the novel, a very modern portrait of family familiar to anyone acquainted with a pre-recession world. In exploring the past, Madden reminds us of the personal dramas that occurred long before worries of crashing economies. The family is soon to be spread across the globe, to grow up, to have their own children and careers, while older relatives die and are remembered. The reader is left with a sense of longevity rather than fatalism, a reminder that, details aside, the world beats on. Review by William Howell
7/10 WE NEED NEW NAMES We Need New Names by NoViolet Bulawayo is published in hardback by Chatto and Windus, priced £14.99 (ebook £8.54). Available now Books seen from a child’s-eye view have been all the rage for the last few years, with Room and The Curious Incident... both gathering many plaudits. This latest, the debut from Bulawayo, is deserving of similar success. Told in two parts by Darling, a Zimbabwean immigrant to America - before and after leaving her homeland - it conveys the blunt realities of life on two continents. From guava-stealing child of a shanty town to American teen, Darling navigates the insecure and often contradictory landscape of the modern migrant, taking the reader with her. Using language that manages to convey much in just a few words, Bulawayo lets the reader see for themselves, through a child black-and-white morality, some uncomfortable truths. But despite its tough subject matter, this is a very readable tale, thanks to some excellent writing and its central character: a likeable heroine in a difficult world. Review by Sarah Warwick
BAD MONKEY
8/10
Bad Monkey by Carl Hiaasen is published in hardback by Sphere, priced £16.99 (ebook £7.49). Available now Andrew Yancy has been moved from his job in the Florida Keys police force after committing a rather unsavoury assault on his lover’s husband using a vacuum cleaner. But his last task as a cop before he is forced to become a restaurant inspector is to persuade Miami detectives to accept responsibility for a severed arm that has been reeled in by a fishing tourist. They refuse to take it and Andrew ends up keeping the arm - and the case. He starts to unofficially investigate in an effort to get his badge back, but finding the owner of the limb proves to be more tricky than meets the eye. Best-selling author Carl Hiaasen has once again provided a laugh-out-loud funny book crammed with witty dialogue and hilarious circumstances. He seamlessly interweaves different characters’ lives together with twists and turns that are simply wonderful. A joy to read. Review by Caroline Davison 76
8/10 MY NOTORIOUS LIFE My Notorious Life By Madame X by Kate Manning is published in hardback by Bloomsbury, priced £12.99 (ebook £7.25). 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. Review by Denise Bailey
LOCAL AUTHOR ANDREW TOWNING ACTION-THRILLER AUTHOR www.andrewtowning.co.uk enquiries@andrewtowning.co.uk
A story that highlights the level of absurdity on which people’s lives are determined
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.
5/10 THE EXECUTION OF NOA The Execution Of Noa P. Singleton by Elizabeth L Silver is published in hardback by Headline, priced £14.99 (ebook £7.49). Available now. With her date of execution just six months away, death row inmate Noa is presented with a chance to alter her sentence to life imprisonment by the mother of her victim, a high class attorney who has changed her opinion of the ruling. Silver’s debut novel closely picks apart the American judicial system, particularly that of the controversial death sentence. A broad understanding and first hand knowledge of the flaws and illogicalities embedded within trial procedures have acy Leg allowed her to create a story that highlights the level of absurdity on which tine stan Con The people’s lives are determined. The facts provided regarding the subject are certainly sobering, however, the dramatisation of them is slow and dull. The title character is completely void of personality. What could have been a powerful criticism of a barbaric system has unfortunately been clouded by a clunky, disposable plot.

CHILDREN’S BOOK OF THE WEEK FRANKIE’S MAGIC FOOTBALL Frankie’s Magic Football: by Frank Lampard is published in paperback original by Little, Brown, priced £4.99 (ebook £2.49). Available now Long-time Chelsea midfielder and record-goalscorer Frank Lampard is adding a new string to his bow. Not content with leading out the England football team, he has decided to write a series of children’s books. Frankie and his pals Louise and Charlie, along with his trusty dog Max, visit a spooky carnival. One of the games is a simple football target challenge where the young footballer wins a battered old ball. Frankie and pals play with the ball, which magically transports them to a ship called The Jolly Striker where they join a pirate football tournament. Aimed at the 5+ market, Lampard has managed to create characters that hold well. Frankie in particular demonstrates calm and integrity, sharing an ethic to play fair. A great book for new readers with a love of football. Review by Rachel Howdle

OUTDOOR LIVING
IT’S ALL ABOUT WICKER THIS SUMMER Many people prefer to buy plastic patio furniture because it is usually the cheapest option. This type of furniture has very few other advantages when compared to other types. So today we want to talk about wicker.

ALL-WEATHER POLYETHYLENE WICKER RATTAN When it comes to outdoor living, there's just something about wicker. It's warm. Inviting. Comfortable. And there's no better way to kick up your feet at the end of the day, or the beginning! Garden Furniture of Distinctions all-weather polyethylene wicker rattan combines all the comfort and under-
stated elegance of traditional wicker with technologically advanced materials that are even more durable and weather resistant. Season after season, year after year, our all-weather polyethylene wicker rattan delivers unmatched comfort and durable good looks in any outdoor setting. 91
OUTDOOR LIVING
FIVE REASONS TO... CHOOSE ALL-WEATHER WICKER RATTAN All-weather polyethylene wicker rattan offers unmatched durability and lasting comfort. Here are five reasons to choose all-weather wicker rattan when furnishing your outdoor living space:
BEATS THE HEAT. CONQUERS THE COLD Our all-weather polyethylene (PE) wicker rattan stays flexible and retains its color no matter what the elements dish out. Whether it’s hot, cold, or just right outside, all-weather PE wicker from Garden Furniture of Distinction is a smart choice for outdoor living in every season.
STANDS UP TO THE SUN Ultraviolet rays from the sun can cause traditional outdoor furniture to crack, split, and fade. Our all-weather PE wicker rattan resists damaging UV rays to give you maximum value from your outdoor furniture investment.
REPELS WATER. RESISTS SALT AND CHLORINE All-weather PE wicker rattan repels rain, snow, and humidity, keeping it looking new longer and ensuring years of comfort and value. Need outdoor furniture that can handle poolside or surfside conditions? Our PE wicker rattan resists saltwater and chlorine, making it ideal for use around the pool or at the beach.
STAYS STURDY While traditional rattan tends to lose its elasticity and break down over time, the advanced synthetic polyethylene material used in our allweather wicker rattan will remain supple and strong for years to come.
MAKES MAINTENANCE A BREEZE To maintain your all-weather wicker rattan’s appearance, just periodically wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth. No other maintenance is needed!
Durable, comfortable, and low-maintenance, all-weather PE wicker rattan from Garden Furniture of Distinction brings warm elegance and long-lasting value to any outdoor setting. To learn more, contact us today. We'll be happy to help you choose outdoor furnishings that fit perfectly into your lifestyle and

ASK THE PROPERTY EXPERT LATEST COURT RULING PUT LANDLORDS INTO PANIC On the 14th June 2013 the Lord Justice Lloyd handled the appeal on the Superstrike v Rodriguez case. The outcome of this appeal has put the lettings world in turmoil for private landlords and letting agents, as well as all the Deposit Schemes who are still seeking legal advice. Online property forums are in full discussion as well as landlord governing bodies. This particular case is because a tenant entered an Assured Shorthold Tenancy(AST) prior to April 2007, which meant the deposit did not have to be protected. The tenancy was for twelve months and expired in January 2008, it then proceeded into a statutory periodic tenancy(SPT). Now up to this point, this has been the procedure we have all been advised to do, the rules stated that only when you entered a new AST did you need to protect the deposit. The case however, brings up rightly that when a tenancy is allowed to go into a SPT this is deemed as a new distinct tenancy and not a continuation and therefore the deposit should have been protected. And, because of this when the landlords took the tenants to court on a Section 21 notice, the court refused to recognise it. The majority of landlords will have tenants in AST’s that started after April 2007, but if you have a tenant prior to this date and thought there was no need to protect, then my advice is to protect it now, as it would show your good intentions. However, the dilemma now falls with periodic tenancies now being classed as new distinct tenancies and this is where problems may arise and why the deposit schemes are seeking legal advice because their own website clearly say you do not need to protect a deposit again if in a monthly rollover. And if each new month is a new distinct tenancy are we to renew monthly? What about guarantors who were on the original tenancy, do they not continue?

HOME IMPROVEMENTS
DIY EXPERT Get those jobs done with a little help from ‘Big Al; our resident DIY expert.
The most environmentally friendly option is obviously using the flooring you already have. Do you have concealed original floorboards or parquet flooring that can be sanded and varnished or painted? In old houses, there are sometimes hidden gems like original stone or tiled floors that haven’t been seen for years. They may need a little TLC, but they make a great feature, and restoring what’s there is a lot more eco than buying new flooring. If you don’t have flooring you can restore, the next best thing is buying reclaimed period flooring from eBay or an architectural salvage yard. Putting period features back into an old property is a good way to add value and increase its appeal when you come to sell. Although reclaimed flooring sometimes costs more than new, it is reusing at its best. If you’d prefer a new wooden floor, bamboo is an eco choice, despite the fact that it’s mainly grown in Asia. While it’s similar to hardwood in many ways, bamboo has one big advantage -
WALKING INTO A GREENER HOME the plant takes just three to five years to reach maturity, a lot less than a typical tree. When shopping for any new wooden flooring, look for the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) logo, which shows that the wood has been sustainably sourced - all B&Q wood is FSC certified.
One of the most environmentally friendly types of flooring is a wool carpet - making a wool carpet uses only about 10% of the energy used to produce a nylon one. Wool couldn’t be more sustainable, as sheep obviously regrow their fleeces once
PRODUCT OF THE WEEK GREEN DUCK TAPE New green Duck Tape is just the thing for doing discreet garden repairs. Like all Duck Tapes, it’s strong, durable, waterproof and temperature resistant and will stick to most surfaces you can even use it to mend garden tools. From £4.49 DIY Stores 116
sheared, and while there are plenty of great British wool carpets (70% of British wool goes into carpet), you may be surprised to learn that New Zealand ones also have excellent eco credentials. New Zealand may be thousands of miles away, but every kilogram of wool produced there is said to equate to 0.315kg of CO2-equivalent greenhouse gas, which is less than driving an average-sized petrol car for a mile. The main impact of getting wool to market is from land and water use, but Wools of New Zealand (a premium brand of carpets and rugs manufactured to quality standards) works with its producers to minimise that impact. What’s more, a single fleece from a New Zealand sheep will make about 4m sq of carpet, which is double the amount from wool from other regions. A carpet logo to look out for is Laneve. This logo is only given to farmers who comply with Laneve’s social responsibility, animal welfare, land man-
agement, environmental and traceability guidelines (Laneve carpets, such as those from Flock, can be traced back to the farm the wool came from), all of which are independently authenticated. And don’t forget the underlay - Crumbwool, a new environmentally friendly underlay made here from 100% recycled carpet fibres and 100% recycled rubber, is a collaboration between Wools of New Zealand and Anglo Recycling. The Crumbwool manufacturing process uses the offcuts from British carpet manufacturers that would otherwise go to landfill, with recycled rubber tyres for the backing. The result is an eco underlay that has excellent noise-reduction and insulation properties because of its high wool content. Wool (and cotton) can be combined with other natural fibres in flooring, but you can also get natural flooring that’s purely sisal, coir, seagrass or jute etc, which is similar to carpet, but generally has a more pronounced texture. Like wool carpet, natural flooring is very
sustainable and renewable because it’s made from plants that grow relatively quickly. However, the plants are usually grown in Asia and other farflung places, so it’s not homegrown flooring. In kitchens and bathrooms, stone floors are a popular choice, but the provenance of the stone is something to be aware of, as it’s often mined abroad. Brazilian slate may be cheaper than Welsh slate, for example, but you may be paying a high price in environmental terms. Cork tiles, although no longer in fashion, are actually a green alternative for kitchen and bathroom floors. The cork is harvested every nine years from the bark of the cork oak tree in the Mediterranean, and then the bark grows back to be harvested again. Similarly, linoleum (lino) has fallen out of fashion. You may think it’s the same as vinyl flooring, but vinyl is synthetic, whereas lino is made from natural materials, so you get a similar look without the planet paying the price.

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.

you open to the elements according to the weather as you wish. Even sun and rain sensors can automate this for you. Because there is no glass there is also no cleaning required or the worry of a fallen roof tile or tree debris falling and damaging it. Optional LED light strips can integrate into the aluminium roof slats for evening use along with heaters meaning you are kept warm and dry and even free from insect bites. Installing is really quite simple and our expert team will undertake the whole process for you from start to finish. You may want your B200 to be free standing away from the house or perhaps connected to your house wall, such is the flexibility of the B200 framework that multiple fixation methods allow installation to be quite simple and a complete installation is completed usually in a single day.

WILL THIS WORK WITH YOUR BIKE, MADAME? LOIRE CYCLE
The Loire Valley, France “Thanks to Sir Bradley and his compatriots’ stunning success at the London Olympics, cycling has seen a huge resurgence. More and more people are finding the idea of getting in the saddle appealing, and some tour operators are reporting a whopping 300% boost in the sale of holidays by bike.” Fortunately it wasn’t a complicated piece of machinery I was being asked about, but a glass of fine French white, produced in the Loire Valley, ready to be tasted. And despite a kind vineyard owner’s concern, it turns out the beauty of a cycling holiday means that the odd glass of vin blanc or rouge does indeed “work”. Thanks to Sir Bradley and his compatriots’ stunning success at the London Olympics, cycling has seen a huge resurgence. More and more people are finding the idea of getting in the saddle appealing, and some tour operators are reporting a whopping 300% boost in the sale of holidays by bike. This year also

marks the 100th anniversary of the Tour de France and, in August, 20,000 amateur cyclists will take part in a 100mile race along the 2012 London Olympic route as part of the world’s largest cycling festival, RideLondon. With so much buzz around a sport based on something pretty much all of us did as a child, my husband and I decided to see what all the fuss was about. But rather than racing up mountains and through valleys, we chose a gentle jaunt around the Loire Valley in central France. Armed with some wellequipped bikes - loaded with panniers, trip monitors to calculate speed and repair kits - and just a map and set
of directions, it was up to us to negotiate the 25-35 mile route each day. Easy, you might think, but it certainly proved to be a challenge in some parts. The odd wrong turn led to a few extra miles and a quick reassessment of our location, as well as needless to say - a few heated exchanges The silver lining of that cloud was the achievement of solving the problem and getting “back on track”. Some people might choose to move their own luggage, but we travelled in style, with our cases transported for us. In fact, the only real hardship was the occasional grey, drizzly day. But isn’t that the fun of adventure? The thrill of successfully navigating
an unknown route, getting up hills you didn’t think you could, while taking in beautiful sights, interesting history and a bucket-load of culture, makes a wonderfully-deserved glass of wine and dinner at your destination taste even better. The Loire Valley has a reputation for fine wine and great food - along with great art, architecture and 300 chateaux to discover. In fact, every town we pedalled through had its own grand ‘residence’ - ranging from a majestic construction that overlooks bourgeois Saumur to more intimate buildings
that have been converted into hotels - many of which we stayed in. The advantage of cycling is having plenty of time to admire these historic buildings from the outside, or to stop off and explore their impressive grounds. Straddling the Cher River, Chenonceau was once at the centre of a dispute between Catherine de Medici, wife of Henry II of France, and her husband’s long-time lover Diane de Poitiers. Even more striking are the three-tiered gardens at the chateau at Villandry, as well as the horticultural work of art created

by the Countess of Venant at the Chateau de Valmer. The picturesque towns and villages of the Loire are rich in history. Amboise, with its own towering castle, is home to the Manoir du Clos Luce, where Leonardo da Vinci lived the final three years of his life. Despite being bombed during the Second World War, Tours still has a wonderful old town with leaning wooden-beamed buildings and cobbled streets. The tiny towns of Montrichard (made of “tuffeau” sedimentary rock featuring compressed fossils and sand) and Fontevraud (famous for its abbey which once housed both a nunnery and a monastery) were both perfect places to stop off for simple refreshments. The pace of cycling is a great way to enjoy the scenery. From quiet roads along the banks of the Loire, as well as its sister 122 rivers, to custom-made gravel
tracks with picturesque picnic areas, we made our way across the valley. The panorama across acres of vineyards in Vouvray looked even more beautiful because I’d reached the vantage point by my own steam, while the thrill of zooming downhill through the same vineyards into tiny French towns was pretty exhilarating, to say the least. We bumped over dirt tracks, negotiated busy towns, wheezed up impossible-seeming climbs to chateaux perched on the tops of hills, and each time came out smiling. There was even a smile after the copious amounts of tumbles from this particularly amateur Victoria Pendleton. Best of all was stopping off for a well-earned treat. As someone who’s virtually always on a diet, I welcomed the opportunity to eat guilt-free thanks to so much exercise. Starting the day with a buttery, melt-
in-the-mouth pastry can put a grin on anyone’s face. We supped on traditional French cider along the way, stopped for galettes - savoury buckwheat pancakes stuffed with all manner of good things - and crepes. Evenings were feasts of meat, cheese and red wine - all the perfect tonic for tired and weary muscles. During the day, we sampled fine wines in many of the “caves” (underground cellars). It’s perfectly acceptable to arrive on your bike, take a small tour, then try the vineyard’s produce before buying a bottle or two and going on your merry way. A cycling holiday in the Loire is a wonderful way of taking in stunning scenery, sampling fine cuisine, and challenging yourself to something you probably weren’t quite sure you could do. “Does this work with your bike, madame?” Oh yes it does.

OUTDOOR LIVING
ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO...
CONTROLING ANIMALS IN YOUR GARDEN 133
OUTDOOR LIVING
The other day, I wandered up the garden to find that some of my favourite emerging phlox had been razed to the ground, devoured by something which left just the stems at ground level. Rabbits? Could be. But no, the next day the culprit returned for second helpings - a large black cat with a penchant for perennials, so now I’m keeping a powerful water pistol by my patio door to scare off any such intruders. Indeed, one man’s pet is another man’s pest so it’s useful to know how to control them. And it is often a matter of trial and error. What works for one gardener may be of no value to another. The only real deterrent may be a sixfoot-high fence all the way around your garden!
CATS
134
There are a number of battery-operated deterrents on the market which, when switched on, pick up movement with an infra-red detector and then emit ultrasonic, highpitched frequencies that reputedly scare off the culprits. They are not
audible to humans and the usual range is about 10m (33ft) over an arc of 70 degrees. Another solution is to put down citrus peelings or lemon scent where the cats are causing the damage, or prickly prunings around their favourite plants. They are less likely to use your garden as a litter tray if they have no access to bare soil - especially dry, loose soil. If you have a gravelled area, try replacing it with larger stone chippings or pebbles. Unwanted CDs can be threaded on twine with knots in between to keep them apart. String these across flower beds or hang from trees, and the light reflections will deter cats.
RABBITS These fast-breeding mammals can cause massive damage to vegetables and flowers and are a particular problem in rural areas. The only real defence is a rabbit-proof fence buried around 45cm (18in) into the soil and about 1m (3ft) high. You could also try growing plants which rabbits don’t like, such as very aromatic plants, plants that ooze caustic milky
sap, prickly plants, plants with spines or plants with tough leathery leaves. These include astilbe, berberis, agapanthus, nicotiana, hydrangea, geranium, euphorbia, hypericum, helenium, rudbeckia and phormium, but there are many more.
SQUIRRELS The scourge of bird-lovers nationwide, squirrels will steal bird food from any receptacle it can get to, but there are now a lot of squirrel-proof feeders on the market to deter them. They can also damage plants, as they eat bulbs, shoot tips and flower buds, as well as stripping the bark from trees. The only really effective protection is to secure net-covered cages for groups of plants and individual tree guards.
FOXES They can dig up clumps of your lawn, flower beds and vegetable plots, but alas there’s not much you can do about foxes. Avoid using fertilisers such as blood, fish and bone, which will attract them to the smell.
Go to your local zoo and speak to the keepers about getting some lion urine, which apparently foxes hate because of the smell. Sprinkle it over the entrance to and exit from their run and you may deter them. Aside from that the only way forward is an electric fence.
MUNTJAC These nuisance deer, natives of southeast Asia, strip rose bushes of buds, chew their way through shrubs and perennials and are territorial, so tend to return. Aside from putting a 6ft fence around your garden, you could try growing plants they’re not so keen on, including camellia, cistus, hellebore, hosta, hydrangea, lavender, poppies and sedum. Be warned, they do like geraniums, sweet Williams, clematis and roses, but if they’re starving they’ll eat anything. If you want to preserve the balance of nature, you could grow alternative food for the deer, allowing an area at the end of your garden to be devoted to brambles, rowan, dandelion, campion and yarrow.
TIP:
BEST OF THE BUNCH ASTRANTIA
Astrantia spreads rapidly, so you can increase your stock by digging up clumps and dividing them every couple of years.
These pretty, delicate-looking perennials which come in shades of white, pink and deep red are wonderful for the middle of a border, growing the around 60cm (2ft) and spreading to make excellent ground cover. The small pin-cushion flowers appear above the foliage from June to August and they will grow in any soil in sun or partial shade. Thanks to their subtle colours, astrantias fit into most planting schemes. Good varieties include A. major ‘Hadspen Blood’, which produces deep red flowers above elegant green foliage, and A. major involucrata ‘Shaggy’, which has white flowers with a collar of extra long petals.
WHAT TO DO THIS WEEK: IN YOUR GARDEN Make the most of the sunny days this July and get out in the garden to tend to your plants and shrubs.
THREE WAYS TO...
GOOD ENOUGH TO EAT
PERK UP SHADY PATIO
CHIVES (ALLIUM SCHOENOPRASUM)
Consider filling a container with shade-tolerant plants including white busy Lizzies, purple heliotropes, nemesia and evergreen lamium. Brighten up a shady wall with a climbing clematis, many of which are shade tolerant. Try large-flowered hybrids in dappled shade such as C. ‘Hagly Hybrid’, whose pretty pink flowers stay true to their colour until you put them in the sun, or C. alpina, the alpine clematis, with its dainty blue, bell-like flowers. Make the most of architectural specimens which like shade, including hostas and ferns, positioning pots of them around a focal point such as a statue.
These members of the onion family look great in the vegetable patch, or at the front of a flower border, with their pretty purple lollipop flowers. Even if you don’t like the taste of chives you can appreciate them as an ornamental. The flowers make a colourful addition to salads, while the onion-flavoured stems make a great addition snipped into sour cream for a delicious dip or jacket potato filling, or simply added to a salad instead of salad onions. These perennials are generally trouble-free, coming back year after year with no fuss. Plant pot-grown plants out in late spring or summer, water them in and keep them weeded and watered in dry spells. Remove faded flower heads and stalk to keep plants looking tidy through the summer. The most popular variety is the purple Allium schoenoprasum but you can also obtain rarer white chives (A. schoenoprasum ‘White Form’) from specialist herb farms.
1 2 3
Pinch out side shoots of sweet peas being grown as cordons.
4
Plant out dahlias and chrysanthemums raised from cuttings, staking them to support the flower stems as they grow.
5
Feed flowering plants and shrubs with a general fertiliser, hoeing it into the soil surface and water in if the weather remains dry.
7
Sow a few seeds of salad crops like lettuce and radish every fortnight during summer.
8 9 10
Pinch out the soft tips of broad bean plants to reduce the risk of blackfly.
11 12 13
Pick off the dead flowerheads of rhododendrons and azaleas. Recycle grass cuttings, composting them or using them as a mulch around trees and bushes.
Continue to plant out marrows, courgettes and squashes outside. Lift and divide congested clumps of flag iris after flowering. Raise new plants of azaleas, magnolias and other shrubs by layering low-growing shoots of young growth to soil level. Keep the soil around shoots layered early in the year constantly moist. Scoop out duckweed from your pond using a small fishing net. Continue to feed greenhouse plants in pots and growing bags at least once a week.

KEEPING UP WITH JONES Jane Jones Jane Jones PR
Welcome to my column, for those of you who don’t know me then over the next few months I think you soon will… many years ago when I was young and very impressionable I used to occasionally treat myself to the latest publication of Harpers & Queen (does it still exist). One of the columns I enjoyed the most because I aspired to being this person was the ‘Lady Olga Maitland Column’. To this day I’ve no idea who she was or is but believe me she used to treat the readers to all sorts of society tit bits. Now I would like to think I can do just this for you with the column I am writing for your Homes Magazine but I can only really bring you the latest gossip with your help so please let me have your ‘tit bits’ and hopefully we can achieve a wonderful partnership. Well Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, in fact this whole conurbation, I believe should really work as one. Brighton & Hove, they’ve seemed to have got it right although I am not too sure where Hove is but why not tap on the back of the better known Brighton. They seem to attract a pretty affluent type of visitor and why then is it so hard to do this for our towns. We’ve got the Beach Polo which let’s face it has really helped put Poole on the map, a wonderful BBC fly on the wall programme a few years ago namely ‘Champagne Taste, Lemonade Money’ and much more recently Pearce Morgan came to town to talk to some of the area’s most interesting people but all of this has got to be tongue in cheek. I don’t think we are being taken seriously and that can only happen if each town genuinely works together to encourage tourism. I remember a couple of years ago reading an article in the Daily Mail, granted it was one of those paid for advertorials but it was all about coming to sunny Bournemouth. The story mentioned everything you would expect from long sandy beaches, abundance of hotels, restaurants and shops and then went on to suggest day trips for the visitor. Funny that it didn’t even mention Poole. Now am I being stupid or have we all missed the fact that Bournemouth’s beach actually becomes Sandbanks beach, Bournemouth and Poole have a college and have done for years and I could go on and on. I do think things are on the up though so I don’t want to appear too much of a killjoy, Poole have now got a great advocate on board within the council being Judy Butt who is the new Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Tourism amongst other roles and Bournemouth’s Mark Smith is really working to achieve putting Bournemouth on the map. We’ve lost Tony Brown from Beales who believed passionately about making Bournemouth more than a stag and hen resort but hopefully with a few true believers in our wonderful town we are finally getting there with the regeneration that is so vitally needed. Other towns around the country have for years left us standing and now we need to stand up for our beliefs as quite frankly we have masses to offer including the wonderful county of Dorset. Watch this space for some more news and views about your area and I don’t mind if you come from Hamworthy in the West to New Milton in the East, your views will be really appreciated and please don’t forget to tip me off first if you hear anything that can be aired in print about our towns and its social activities. Most of the time I’ve heard it first but you never know!
TRAVEL EXPERT Moreno Intranova The Luxury Travel Planner
HOUSE Magazine travel expert Moreno Intranova from ‘The Luxury Travel Planner’ talks about his new and exciting launch, some of his memorable trips and what makes him unique from the high street travel agents. Moreno has been in the luxury travel industry for over 18 years and has looked after some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry including politicians and heads of major companies.
What inspired you to set up your own travel business? Having worked in the luxury market for many years, I have amassed a wealth of knowledge of destinations and luxury hotels. I wanted to be able to offer impartial advice for clients looking for a unique, tailored and seamless experience when booking their ideal dream holiday and being available when it’s convenient to them.
What is it that you exactly offer your clients? I offer my clients a very personalised and bespoke travel service, where I get to know my clients very well, so that I can put together tailored arrangements for them. I am backed and supported by one of the biggest travel consortiums in the industry which is part of the Travel Trust Association, giving my clients 100% financial protection. I can arrange weekend breaks, luxury cruise holidays and more complicated tailor made cultural journeys to historical destinations amongst other types of holidays and adventures. Last but not least the service is FREE OF CHARGE
What unique service do you offer your clients compared to booking with a high street agent? Because I work from home, I am available 7 days a week allowing you to contact me at a time convenient to you. I also offer a ‘by appointment service’ which means I can travel to the homes or offices of clients and discuss their holiday plans over a cup of coffee. It’s important that I get to know my clients so that I can research the perfect itinerary for them, which is crucial in ensuring a seamless & memorable experience.
What would you say was your most memorable trip away in the past 5 years? I would probably have to say my trip to Madagascar with my own private guide exploring this fascinating under-developed country with its rich flora & fauna, wildlife and warm hospitality. Feeding bananas to a Lemur perched on my shoulder is an experience I will never forget. If you are a keen photographer or wildlife enthusiast, then you ought to strongly consider a trip here.

SALAD DAYS ARE HERE TO STAY Juicy burgers and succulent chicken drumsticks are often the main attraction at summer barbecues - and who can blame us for shunning the salads when the scent of mouth-watering grilled meat fills the air? Done properly, summer salads can be just as exciting as a sizzling quarter-pounder. And what’s more, they’re becoming easier and easier to create at home. Back in 1985, Marks & Spencer welcomed UK customers to the convenient world of pre-packaged salads. Since then, other shops have followed suit, with a whopping 466,938,000 bags of salads sold in supermarkets during 2012, according to the British Leafy Salads Association (BLSA). One person who’s keen to encourage us to put salad in the
spotlight is Harry Eastwood, who appeared on Channel 4’s Cook Yourself Thin.
I’ve been eating a salad a day for years. So long in fact that I can’t remember when it started! “Salads are healthy and easy, I honestly just love eating colourful food. I feel good if I eat food that I know is fresh, sea-
Goat’s cheese & honey parcels Ingredients 4 large handfuls mixed baby leaf lettuce or oak leaf lettuce 1 shallot, finely diced
For the dressing: 1tbsp red wine vinegar 1tbsp walnut oil 1tsp Dijon mustard
Method Blanch the green beans in boiling water and once the water boils again, drain and rinse them in very cold water until they are cold to the touch. They should be a little crunchy. Set aside. To make the parcels, cut the filo sheets in half lengthways so you have 18 Sheets of pastry, then brush a little of the oil over each sheet of filo on both sides.

SERVES 4
Summer ratatouille Ingredients 1 large aubergine, cut into small dice 2 medium courgettes, topped, tailed 4tbsp olive oil 1 large onion, peeled and cut into fine dice 1 medium yellow pepper,
cored and chopped 1 medium orange pepper, cored and chopped 2 cloves garlic 3 anchovies 10 medium, ripe tomatoes Juice of 1/2 lemon A handful basil leaves
Method Heat a large frying pan until very hot. Toss the aubergine and courgette cubes in the olive oil until evenly coated. Add them to the hot frying pan and cook over a high heat for five minutes, until the edges have turned a golden colour. You may find that you need to do this stage in two batches. Tip the hot vegetables into a large bowl with the diced onion, prepared peppers, garlic and anchovies. Season generously with salt and pepper, then cover with cling film. Set aside for 10 minutes. In the meantime, chop the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds and centre with the help of a spoon. Finely chop the flesh, then add to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Finally, squeeze the lemon juice over the salad. Set aside (wrapped in cling film) for an hour in the ambient temperature of your kitchen, to let the flavours mingle and develop. Scatter the basil leaves over just before serving and adjust the seasoning one last time. Serve with crusty bread.
RECIPE
Roast chicken caesar salad Ingredients 50g butter 2 cloves garlic, minced 1tbsp thyme leaves Freshly cracked black pepper 1 large (2.5kg) chicken 12 quails’ eggs
1 ciabatta roll A pinch of celery salt 4 Little Gem lettuces 120g pitted black olives 3 celery stalks 30g Parmesan
Light Caesar dressing: 120g mayonnaise 8 anchovies 4 cloves garlic, minced 120ml freshly squeezed lemon juice 60g plain full-fat yoghurt 4tsp Dijon mustard 4tbsp olive oil 2tsp Worcestershire Sauce A pinch of celery salt
Method Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/gas mark 5. Beat the butter and add the garlic and thyme. Season well with pepper. Rub the paste under the skin of the chicken, concentrating on the breast section and the top of the thighs. Place the prepared chicken in the middle of the hot oven and cook for one hour, basting occasionally. Cook the quails’ eggs in boiling water for two minutes. Once cooked, run them under cold water until they are cold to the touch. Drain them, then peel. There is a knack to peeling quails’ eggs: roll them on a board first and you’ll find that the shell comes off easier. Once the chicken has had 40 minutes’ cooking, pop the ciabatta on an oven tray and into the hot oven for the final 20 minutes of cooking. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 10 minutes. Cut all the meat and toss it in the cooking juices. Season with celery salt. To make the dressing, put the mayonnaise, anchovies, garlic and lemon juice in a clean jar and shake until loose and combined. Add the yoghurt, Dijon mustard, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce and a pinch celery of salt and shake again. Dress the prepared lettuce leaves with half the dressing. 141

COOK WESTBOURNE REVIEW 120 Poole Road Westbourne BH4 9EF Telephone: 01202 765560 Web: www.cookfood.net/bournemouth
Opening Hours
COOK was created 16 years ago, with it’s founding principle to cook using exactly the same ingredients that a good domestic cook would use at home, so everything looks and tastes home-made.
Mon-Wed: 09.30-17.30 Thursday & Friday: 09.30-18.00 Saturday: 09.00-17.30
Today, nothing has changed and COOK continues to make its meals by hand. As proof of its handmade nature, the name of the individual chef who cooked each dish is printed on the packaging. Our chefs have created nearly a hundred different meals for one and two persons. Along with many different dishes for four/six to cater for bigger gatherings. All meals are cooked straight from frozen. Growing through word of mouth is slightly tricky when party hosts claim the food as their own! COOK has expanded from a single shop to nearly 70. The lovely shop in Westbourne, which has a ‘farm shop’ feel about it, is managed and owned by Elaine Sullman. Elaine and her team are only too happy to help with suggestions for your evening meal, dinner party or larger parties. COOK has gorgeous everyday meals, posh dinner party dishes, bikini diet dishes (perfect for getting ready for your holiday), food for big fancy parties, gluten free dishes, kids meals and new family grub. All the luscious hand made puddings are made by the wonderful Liz Dove and her team in Somerset, the white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake is sublime!!

On a lovely bright autumnal day we arrived at Dean Court bathed in sunlight. Warm greetings at Reception led us to the second floor Restaurant. The friendly staff, black and white decor and striking sporting pictures adorning the walls made us feel very welcome. We were led to our table and offered a starter of Crab and Salmon tart with lemon dressed baby leaves, tasty fish in a pastry case. Elegantly complimented by the lemony and green pesto. After a suitable pause to take stock of AFC Bournemouth’s team and discuss their chances of winning with the other guests at our table we continued with delicious fillet of Sea Bass with Saffron potatoes and ratatouille and Roast sirloin of beef with caramelised shallots and red wine jus.

PERFECT PINS
HEALTH & BEAUTY
Forget being glued to weather forecasts. You're never going to be inspired to let the sun see your legs if they're camouflaged in a layer of fuzz and dead skin. "Take the time to exfoliate to keep skin looking rejuvenated and radiant," advises Nathalie Eleni, Venus & Braun beauty therapist. "Exfoliate daily by using a gentle scrub, massaging the skin in circular motions to remove dead skin cells and leave you with the perfect base for tanning." A smooth base will make buffing your limbs into shape easier, with a firming potion to tighten. Wow with contouring trickery using a subtle stroke of shimmer or highlighter down the front of your shins.
Top tips on how to get your body ready for the beach this summer!
If tights are your security blanket and tent-like maxis your wardrobe saviour, stop and embrace summer. The slow start to the season has given us longer to hide our sins under layers, making the transition to body-baring bikinis even more daunting than usual. More than half of women (59%) have avoided wearing a bikini in front of people because they didn't feel confident enough, according to a body survey by Bio-Oil. And one in five women admitted that they worry about their body every day. Whether your catalyst is a vacation or daring summer dress, avoid the panic and start prepping your figure now for the 'big reveal'.
TONED TUM Muffin top alert! Wobbly stomachs are one of women's biggest bugbears when it comes to bikini season. "It's not just about exercise - you are what you eat," says Fiona Hunter, nutritionist for Simple. "Cut out sugar, booze and carbs and start taking a probiotic supplement two weeks before your holiday to help boost levels of friendly bacteria in your digestive system, which can help reduce the dreaded
SCULPTED ARMS Bingo wings, be gone. Nobody wants to experience the dreaded flapping effect waving to someone on the beach. Pick up baked beans cans or shopping bags and get your arms moving. Celebrity trainer Efua Baker says: "Upper arm definition gets worse from your mid-30s as your body starts to lose muscle mass at the same time as your skin loses elasticity. "To ensure shape and definition, you have to work your arm muscles regularly." Aim for arms like Michelle Obama with toning potions to smooth skin and diminish back of the arm bumps.

bikini bloating." Abs of steel won't happen overnight but a faux golden glow can work slimming wonders. Look for a tanning lotion with toning and firming properties to give your belly a boost.
Ignore the potions that promise an increased bra size in weeks. Treasure the chest you've got and treat it in the same way as your face. "The skin on your decolletage is very similar to the skin around your eyes," says Tanya Mackay, Mama Mio cofounder. "It's thin and delicate with very low levels of inherent strength and elasticity, so get into the habit of treating this area in the same way you use an eye cream every day to keep skin youthful."
Try using a bust cream daily to keep your cleavage perky and lifted. Getting into the routine of moisturising will help avoid decolletage creasing that can worsen with age. Try: This Works Perfect Body Collection with Perfect Cleavage Firming Lotion, £38 (www. thisworks.com); or Mamo Mio Boob Tube Bust & Neck Firmer, £29.50 (www.mamamio. com/uk).
SMOOTH BUM Even skinny minnies aren't immune to cellulite. The orange peel effect is often hereditary and around 95% of women have some type of cellulite on their body, but as our bottoms are fleshiest the effect is heightened. De-dimple a bumpy bum with daily body brushing and massage to increase fat dispersion. It's also important to get active before you hit the beach: "Get moving and you'll find the cellulite potions you invest in work better," advises dermatologist Dr Ariel Haus. "Following exercise, your metabolism and blood circulation are stimulated and products you apply will be better absorbed, helping to activate the cellulite-fighting ingredients." Try: Bliss Fat Girl Slim Lean Machine, £120 (www.blissworld. co.uk); or Shiseido Advanced Body Creator Super Slimming Reducer, £53 (House of Fraser).

ODE TO ORIENTAL
WILD WEST
For Far East fashion inspiration, go bold and bright with strong silhouettes. Ditch the English rose blooms for statement Oriental prints with tropical flowers set against stark white, black or red. Kimono-inspired cover-ups are the chicest way to do outerwear for high summer. Head for floaty shapes with flared sleeves for a relaxed look, or judo-style collarless jackets for a structured take on Eastern promise. You can still do minimalism with this trend. Look for crisp, origami fold detailing to add intricate interest to tops, dresses, skirts and even ‘skorts’, the new skirt and short fusion.
Yeehaw! Thank Isabel Marant for lassoing this trend securely on the high street. The designer may be French but she well and truly kick-started the Americana craze with cowgirl references aplenty. Think cowboy boots, lashings of suede and swinging fringing to look rodeo glam. Hat optional. Relaxed Western-inspired denim is the easiest way to work this trend. Just add embroidered flowers for a summery spin on the cotton blue classic. For deluxe cowgirl style, look uptown in Western ankle boots with a stiletto heel. They may not be suitable for catching cattle but they're infinitely more flattering for legs than traditional cowboy boots.

IDYLLIC INDIAN
AFRICAN ADVENTURE
If your style is eclectic, verging on extravagant, adopt an ethnic Indian vibe for an exlosion of vibrant colours, embroidery, embellishment and sparkle. The look is slightly hippy-chic, with floaty silhouettes, floor-sweeping hemlines and relaxed shapes - perfect for enduring heatwaves or humid climates. Focus on accessories to really hone your Indian aesthetic. Look for bags and footwear laden with intricate beading and embellishment. And add layers and layers of bright beaded bangles and rings that jingle as you walk.
Double clashing or single statement, prints are hot this summer and no trend does them better or bolder than tribal. Keep colours bright, primary and clashing for a vacation look, or muted and monochrome for an office-appropriate outfit. Let your graphic piece speak volumes by keeping the rest of your look low-key. Conversely, try neon accents to really turn heads. A basic, bland outfit can be given a tribal twist with OTT accessories Look for a statement, chunky beaded necklace in rainbow bright colours.
FASHION FLASH IT’S A SHOO-IN She may only be 5ft 4in but Victoria Beckham stands tall as a celebrity shoe icon. The former Spice Girl narrowly beat Sarah Jessica Parker and Rita Ora to claim the towering top spot in a recent poll by MyVoucherCodes.co.uk. The majority of respondents (43%) said they owned between 10 and 50 pairs of shoes, while almost a quarter (23%) claimed they owned less than 10, and 15% admitted that they had simply lost count. When asked to specify how much they spent on a new pair of shoes, the majority splurged between £10 and £50 per pair.

KIA SALES MILESTONE Kia is celebrating two important sales milestones having had a record sales performance for the month of May and for passing half a million registrations since the brand came to the United Kingdom in 1991. In May, 5,604 Kias were registered – an 8.27 per cent increase on the previous best-ever May in 2012. Total sales for 2013 to date now stand at 30,441 vehicles – a record for the first five months of the year and some 10.6 per cent up from the same time last year. Paul Philpott, CEO of KIa UK said: “Reaching 500,000 cars in the UK is another important milestone for the Kia brand. We predict that we will achieve one million registrations in the UK before the end of the decade and our longterm ambition is to become a ‘Top 5’ volume car brand in the UK. The first Kia launched in the UK was the Pride in 1991 – Kia’s original A-segment car and predecessor to the current Picanto. 1,786 Kia vehicles were registered that year. The 100,000 registration landmark was reached just three years later, in 1994, with the sale of a Rio hatchback and a Sportage crossover was the brand’s 250,000th vehicle sale in 2008. The top three bestselling Kias in the UK so far in 2013 are the Sportage, Picanto and cee’d respectively.
ToyoTa Prius Plug-in roaD TEsT Anyone watching the price-digits whirl around when refuelling their car must often think how good it would be to be able to just plug the car into the mains at home, and save a large chunk of money. All-electric cars don’t yet have a long enough range, and hybrids don’t always save as much cash as you might anticipate. But a hybrid you can also plug into the mains at home is an alluring prospect, writes NICK FLETCHER. A prime example is the plug-in version of the Toyota Prius. It can be-recharged in just 90 minutes and can travel 15 miles on just electric power alone, meaning short trips to the shops or the office cost virtually nothing. For longer trips, you can of course use the petrol engine, so this Prius is truly versatile and ultra-economic to run. The Prius Plug-In gets its main power from a 1.8 litre 98 hp petrol engine, aided by an
81 hp electric motor, and is mated to an auto (Continuously Variable) transmission. Top speed is 112 mph, the 0-60 mph time is 11.4 seconds. Fuel consumption is 78.5 mpg combined, but with extended electric usage you can get up to 134.5 mpg. The Prius is also in the lowest tax band for vehicles with a combustion engine, and its very low emissions - just 49g/km means company car drivers pay only tiny amounts of tax. Plus if you do lots of short journeys, you won’t use any petrol at all. Those saving are attractive but as the Prius Plus-In costs £32,895 you need to work out if your specific usage will reap the full financial benefits over time. The Prius is nicely styled, spacious for five adults, and comes exceptionally well equipped. It has front, side, knee and curtain airbags, stability, traction and hill-start controls,
climate and cruise control, auto lights and wipers, superior sound system with sat-nav, Bluetooth, rear camera and alloy wheels among its standard kit. On the road, it is smooth and quiet - indeed near-silent in electric-only mode - with seamless CVT shifts. When not in full EV mode the auto changes from petrol to electric power are undetectable. Handling is safe and assured, though the steering is a little unsensitive and while smooth on good surfaces, the suspension can be unsettled on rougher stuff. The cabin is well built and well finished though the design is not as exciting as you might expect on what is otherwise a very advanced car. The Prius copes easily five people. There’s impressive head and legroom and though the boot has a high floor (the batteries have to go somewhere!) it is still a decent size.
FERRARI ENGINE AWARDS For the third year running a Ferrari engine has triumphed in the International Engine of the Year Awards, this time with the company’s naturally-aspirated 6262cc V12. The 740 HP engine, which equips the acclaimed F12berlinetta, took the two categories - Best Performance Engine and Above 4-litre Engine - which were won in 2011 and 2012 by Ferrari’s 4.5-litre V8. The awards, recognised as the industry’s top accolade for the world’s best powertrain technology, have seen the international judging panel increase to 86 motoring journalists from 35 nations. In the face of stiff competition, the Ferrari V12 was lauded as a masterpiece of engineering, combining blistering performance with surprising efficiency. The cochairman of the International Engine of the Year Awards, Dean Slavnich, commented: "The V12 takes over from the V8 to make it six International Engine of the Year Award wins for Ferrari in three years, a brilliant feat.” The fastest, most powerful Ferrari production car of all time, the F12berlinetta strikes, the company says "a perfect balance between maximum aerodynamic efficiency and the elegant proportions typical of Ferrari’s front-engined V12 cars." The car has a top speed of 200 mph and a 0-60 mph time of just 3.1 seconds. 154
