FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE DESK PURE SECURE PLANNING Dealing with Agents can be an infuriating experience. I’ve been there and done that. As a former Tenant and now a Landlord I’ve seen both sides. From back when I was a Tenant chasing my agents to make repairs, to later in life when I became a Landlord having to find out why my inspection hadn’t taken place or where this months rent was. I think the thing that got me the most was not having my calls returned, both as a tenant and landlord nothing wound me up more than having to take time out of my busy day to make the same phone call three or four times. So much so that I started to deal with my tenants hands on, collecting rents and deposits, making repairs etc… In fact I only used my agents to find tenants. I found that the best way to keep my properties in good condition and paid up each month was to make sure that my tenants were happy. While successfully running my own properties and listening to horror stories of lack of service I was approached by a friend to run his property for him as his busy schedule didn’t allow him the time needed to properly manage it himself. He was so pleased with how I operated he suggested over a well earned pint that I should start my own Agency…..

and so Umbrella Sales and Lettings was born. I contacted a friend with 18 years experience in Sales and brought him on board along with my trusted Building and Maintenance people to provide what had been missing… A truly new and unique experience in Sales and Lettings where Your needs are put first…we manage your property as if it were our own, finding the best tenants and keeping them happy and we don’t sell houses and flats….we sell Homes. All maintenance work is carried out by our In House Department using only highly skilled and trusted workmen with the work coming in on time and on budget.

beauty salon MWAH Bournemouth is about to start training staff in the art of hair care at East Dorset’s LewisManning Hospice based in Poole. The charity offers free specialist palliative nursing care to around 650 local

Sally Goodenough from Lewis Manning Hospice said, “We know our patients will welcome the advice and training that Simone, who owns Hair Loss Bournemouth, and her employees are offering our staff and patients. We all appreciate the difference it makes when you go to your hair dresser and have a professional wash and blow dry and I know that our patients, many of whom are cancer sufferers, will welcome the expert advice that they can offer on hair loss and thin hair.” Owner of the specialist

salon, Simone is an expert in thinning hair and hair loss, and can speak from personal experience as she lost her own hair twice before the age of 30. Having worked in TV, Film and Magazine Modelling since the age of 18 Simone was forced to look for ways to cover up her hair loss, but found there was little on the market except for cheap and nasty looking wigs. After taking several courses in Specialist Hair Extensions & Hair Loss Systems Simone set up a business that provides professional makeup services, hair extensions and hair loss systems to clients all over the UK and Europe. She sources the best products and systems and has a range of clientele that includes celebrities, TV companies, photographers

and agents. Simone moved to Dorset from London and opened her first all encompassing salon in Bournemouth called MWAH Bournemouth – Makeup, Wigs and Hair. Hair Loss Bournemouth is also based at MWAH and a brand new website, www. hairlossbournemouth.co.uk details all the services and advice available. Hair loss or thinning hair is always going to be traumatic for the person involved, but Hair Loss Bournemouth means that there is now an expert service in the South West to help anyone who suffers from these conditions, or just fancies a change from cropped hair to long flowing tresses.

AFCB ABILITY COUNTS

CHRISTMAS COLOURING IS ‘SNOW’ JOKE

Dorset based broker Alan & Thomas Insurance Group has announced they will be sponsoring the AFC Bournemouth Ability Counts Christmas Lunch.

Stadium, the lunch will be hosted by well-known after dinner speaker Mike Osman and attended by over 230 local business professionals on 6 December.

Award-winning estate agency Fox & Sons will be handing out prizes of its own this Christmas as part of a seasonal colouring competition for artistic children of the local area.

The inaugural event is being organised by a committee of local business directors connected to Ability Counts a football club for those with any form of learning disability and/or physical disability. The club provides opportunities for children from the age of five and adults to play football under the name of AFC Bournemouth at local, regional and in some cases, national level. Although part of the Community Sports Trust, they are completely self-funded and all funds raised are through donations and sponsorship activities.

Alan & Thomas Marketing Manager Hayley Baverstock is delighted to be able to announce news of the sponsorship. “The work that Ability Counts does in our area is to be applauded and we’re happy to help raise much needed funds to keep their good work going”.

Taking place Bournemouth’s

at AFC Goldsands

The Poole and Gillingham based insurance broker is AFC Bournemouth’s official insurance partner having formalised their long standing relationship with the club earlier this year. They also have strong ties with a number of Dorset’s other sporting and charitable organisations.

The office, which provides a full sales and lettings service to the whole of Bournemouth, will host the competition by providing blank colouring sheets to local children for them to colour and bring to life in the run up to Christmas for a chance to win an early Christmas present of sweets and a gift voucher. Completed entries will require a festive picture to be coloured and styled. Participating entries will need to be brought to the branch with the child’s parent or guardian by Saturday 7th December in exchange for a festive treat. All returned

pictures will be displayed in the office’s window for the Christmas season and put to the judges, who will decide which picture most deserves the prize.

“We help a host of buyers secure moves and around Bournemouth and we are thrilled at putting smiles on the faces of the children in the community”

Fox & Sons’ Branch Manager Darren Gough, who coordinated the competition and will help decide the eventual winner, says: “We are delighted to be holding this Christmas competition for the children of the local community. Our branch staff are as excited as the children about seeing the final entries; some wanted to have a go themselves but I had to remind them it was the children’s competition and not theirs.

For more information on the Christmas colouring competition, or to discuss the local property market with Darren, contact Fox & Sons on 01202 512606 or email: winton@sequencehome.co.uk

“Winton and the surrounding areas have a great community feeling, which is one of the main reasons people move to the area,” he continues.

We’ve all been there. You park the car in a massive car park then find yourself hours later frantically searching for it on the wrong floor, or worse, the wrong car park! The other night I experienced a version of this, not in a car park, in a warren of corridors, in a situation reminiscent of a horror film. Think The Shining! It all started in such a light hearted and pleasant way. A best friend invited me to supper with her daughter and a few other guests. She manages and lives in a vast, modern apartment block for the retired and elderly and kindly picked me up with a view to my getting a taxi home at the end. I suppose because I arrived with her, I paid no attention to the number of her flat let alone the floor on which it was situated. And that was my downfall. Half way through the evening a queue formed for the loo in her one bedroom flat, so considerate soul that I am, I decided to head to the ground floor and use the resident’s guests’ loo, which turned out to be down a maze of corridors.

BEFORE

AFTER

I spent half an hour going up and down the lift, skulking towards likelylooking flats, where I then lifted the door flaps hoping for either a waft of cigarette smoke or my friend’s familiar booming voice. I felt like an eaves-dropping predator, and prayed some elderly person wouldn’t discover me on the floor and call the authorities.

DRIVEWAYS

AFTER

Friendly , professional , reliable tradesman great service from start to finish , fantastic results Mrs K Leicester Ensbury Park Bournemouth

In the end I gave up and retired to the residents’ lounge, alone without a phone or friend in the world. When my friend – who’d already sent her daughter on a failed mission to find me – turned up she thought it was a huge joke, which it was. Once I was found that is! Insurance. Flooding has created havoc with many people’s homes and lives and we’re in the situation that if there is even a slight risk you may not get insured. Policies have rocketed to such an extent that some people are not insuring at all, taking the view that if you haven’t claimed for years, then when you do need to pay out for a missing ring or burnt blouse (to suggest the extreme) then maybe a once in a lifetime expense is cheaper than 50 year’s insurance payments.

As I wended my way back to the lift, I realised to my horror that I’d no idea where my friend’s flat actually was!

Then there’s the NHS, more importantly the maternity section. Did you know that one fifth of the maternity budget goes on insurance cover, because so many people are claiming for negligence? Questions: what would happen if the NHS decided to stop paying this huge sum on insurance cover? Could it be cheaper to deal with these claims off their own back? It won’t happen but it’s a thought! Our client Quality Electrical has some hot tips on household appliance safety. Interestingly, this week’s publication concentrates on ensuring you have an effective oven over the Christmas period. I noted with a smile that Quality Electrical suggest cooking your turkey in a bag. But please, heed this warning: after that third sherry, don’t use a paper bag and certainly not a supermarket plastic one; the idea is to keep your oven clean not to have you scraping burnt paper or plastic off the door and walls until next Christmas!

With eerie dark nights upon us, Sam Wylie-Harris embraces the burgeoning Gothic trend and picks her favourite black, silver and red accessories for the home.

Try mixing high-gloss furniture with baroquestyle pieces such as mirrors and chandeliers.

LITTLEWOODS & GRAHAM AND BROWN

If Halloween has brought out your dark side, it might be time to experiment with Gothic interiors. But that doesn’t just mean sticking to boring old black. The latest twist on Gothic includes grey, silver and red. Glamorous and dramatic, the trend also blends striking skull prints with glitzy accessories to add an edgy touch to homes and make a stylish statement.

TRENDS

Kevin Parkin, head of design for Littlewoods.com, says: “This season, the catwalks are bursting with Gothic-inspired collections with a hint of punk style, so we have updated the Gothic trend to create a clean and fresh look for your home.

Start with the colour palette: grey and black tones work as the perfect backdrop on walls and furniture, while silver accessories lift the look and a splash of red adds life to a room.

DREAM HOME

Stunning family home that retains much of its original charm

GOLFERS’ PARADISE

BEAUTIFULLY PLACED IN SECLUDED AND MATURE GROUNDS OF APPROXIMATELY THREE ACRES Kingsclere is an impressive property that has been substantially extended and carefully improved by its present owners, who have successfully managed to create a stunning family home that retains much of its original charm and style, while subtly blending all the requisites of modern day living. The main residence commands an enviable position within the outstanding grounds offering garden and woodland views from most of the windows and balconies to the rear of the property, reflecting a beautiful illustration of the Dorset countryside with far reaching views through to the Isle of Wight from the first floor. There are many wonderful features associated with this home that would suit a variety of lifestyles and a first-hand viewing is necessary to appreciate all the possibilities that it has to offer.

OWNERS’ ANNOTATIONS: “Kingsclere just takes our breath away every time we walk through the acres of tiered gardens and protected woodland. The air of peace and tranquillity infuses through this magical place and the thrill of driving through our own private woodland with the par three golf hole in our own golf buggy, fills us with delight each time we hear the squeals of laughter from the grandchildren. “ “As each season passes there are so many special moments to enjoy. The snow in winter gives the garden an enchanting atmosphere full of intrigue and wonder, the family love it saying it looks just like Narnia! With so many wild Christmas trees, it takes several days to put all the fairy lights up but it is always so worth it.” The present owners particularly chose this property because it gives a fantastic taste of the English countryside.

EXCLUSIVE

THE BEAR & THE HARE John Lewis £7 million Christmas advertising campaign uses hand-drawn animation for the first time

The beautifully hand-crafted advert tells a classic story of friendship at Christmas. Featuring best friends a bear and a hare, it continues the long standing focus of John Lewis adverts on going the extra mile at Christmas. The advert has been created using handdrawn animation and represents the first time 2D animation in 3D sets has been used in an advert in the UK. It went live on the retailer’s social media channels on Friday 8th November at 9am and launched on Saturday 9th November, when, in a first for itv, John Lewis will take a whole advert break in the X Factor exclusively. This will be preceded by a teaser campaign, again exclusively on itv. The story opens as winter is starting to draw in, and the fun and excitement of preparing for Christmas begins. As the first snowflake falls and lands on the bear’s nose, the hare starts to feel sad,

as he realizes that winter is nearing and soon his friend will be leaving to hibernate and will once again be missing Christmas. As the woodland animals begin preparing for Christmas in earnest, the bear can not hold off his winter sleep no longer, and leaves the hare to go to his cave. We see the bear sleeping as the days and nights pass. Whilst all the other animals are getting into the christmas spirit busy decorating the forest and wrapping presents, we see the hare is finding it difficult to get excited as he’s missing his friend the bear. But he soon perks up when he has a great idea for a very special present for his friend. Featuring the strapline ‘give someone a Christmas they’ll never forget’, the story evokes the excitement of a first Christmas and the importance of friendship and thoughtfulness.

Craig Inglis, marketing director, John Lewis, comments: “we wanted our advert to reflect the importance of finding the right gift for friends and loved ones, a theme which we have built on for a number of years. Through the use of hand-crafted animation, we’re hoping to evoke nostalgia and build anticipation ahead of Christmas.” Created by advertising agency Adam & Eve/ddb, the ad is set to a cover of Keane’s 2004 hit ‘Somewhere Only We Know’ sung by Lily Allen.

With the housing market going from strength to strength – is it right to have confidence again in bricks and mortar? In just ten months, the property market has swung from stagnation to fears of a new house price bubble emerging – with properties tipped to rise 25% over the next five years. Leading property consultant Savills has advised that they expect the South East and East of England to rise by 31%, while the West will rise by 29%. Nationwide has reported that housing prices are rising at their fastest rate for three years, with it posting annual inflation of 5.8%. The Office of National Statistics (ONS) also reported that on average, house prices in August were 3.8% higher than the previous year at £247,000 – topping the previous all-time high recorded in January 2008. A report by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) published in November advised that 57% more members were registering higher sales prices than were seeing a fall, the biggest ‘net balance’ since 2002. The property market has become the cornerstone of the British economy – so in the short-term rising prices are good news. However, prices are still historically high compared to wages and mortgages have only been affordable due to record low mortgage rates and schemes such as Funding for Lending 90

and Help to Buy. Redrow, one of Britain’s biggest housebuilders said that Help to Buy was accounting for a third of private sales, and that prices were up 11% on last year. The UK is still committed to borrowing to buy a home in comparison to the rest of Europe and there is widespread belief that there are not enough homes to meet this demand. Construction is also booming, with the ONS data for construction showed a 2.5% increase over the quarter, the second successive quarter of growth after a volatile performance over the past year. Traditionally at MSP Capital, the summer months have been a quiet time, but with renewed confidence and improved market conditions, we have seen a significant increase in enquiries compared to the same period in 2012. This quarter we have offered loan terms on projects ranging from £50k to £9m – allowing our borrowers to capitalise on market potential, seeing many property sales exchanging even before the development has been completed. The lending landscape is changing with development funding being primarily offered through bespoke, flexible, funding sources like MSP Capital as opposed to the High Street. With MSP Capital’s experience of lending within the property development sector, we welcome you to contact us to discuss any sites that require funding. We will explore your options and enable you to maximise the value of your property or development with an innovative funding solution.

Don’t worry about the banker, we’ll give you a lending decision in 24-hours Whether it’s funding for development or refurbishment schemes, liquidity assistance or short-term funding, MSP Capital can work with you to create the best package for your particular requirements. We work with individuals and businesses providing short-term, non-status, asset-based loans from £30,000 to £10 million. When other financial institutions say ‘no’, you can bank on MSP Capital for fast, flexible, funding solutions.

To find out more, please call the team on 01202 743400 or email us at info@mspcapital.co.uk

RETRO DESIGN

September marks the 50-year anniversary of the design staple. Half a century may have passed, but the Mathmos lava lamp’s popularity has stood the test of time, and is very much part of the current resurgence and celebration of all things vintage and classically British. Cressida Granger, owner and MD of Mathmos, says: “The lava lamp’s inventor, Edward

Craven Walker, described it best when he said, ‘I think it will always be popular. It is like the cycle of life. It grows, breaks up, falls down and then starts all over again.’ So see the (colourful) light and join the celebration by capturing some classic styling in your home. Here’s a selection of retroinspired homewares that look as modern and fresh today as the original models. 93

ASK THE LETTINGS EXPERT Sharon Canning Move On Rentals

Housing bubble? What are the early indications? Figures from the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML), recently published, showed that mortgage lending for house purchases continued its summer strength.

Visit the new Karndean Designflooring showroom today, now open at Carpet Barn

Gross mortgage lending in the UK stood at £16.2bn in September, slightly below lending of £16.4bn in August, but 41% higher than lending of £11.5bn in September last year, with first time buyers reaching their highest level in more than five years. Interestingly, 27 per cent of Buy to Let mortgage applications were by first time landlords in a recent research by Paragon Mortgages, this is up from 22 per cent in the previous quarter and the highest recorded level since the financial crisis struck. At the same time rents across England and Wales hit record levels in September in Wales, the West Midlands, London and the south-east with the average rental being paid by private tenants hitting £787 a month, according to LSL, who monitors around 18,000 rental properties and prepares a monthly analysis. Higher rents in various regions show that despite the new government schemes for first time buyers it is still out of most people’s reach due to low salary growth and a general shortage of supply, although there is no denying it has caused a flurry of interest. If the first ring of the ladder in home ownership is ignited this will in turn encourage the movement all the way up the ladder!. Official statistics are already indicating UK house prices in some areas are at a record high and critics are concerned the new Help to Buy scheme could create a housing market bubble that will not only fuel the increase in property prices., but could also fuel rental increases. Whichever way it goes the long term rental market looks unlikely to change in the near future.

A little woodland spirit is essential for super-stylish autumn interiors. Gabrielle Fagan gathers some forest-inspired finds to make you feel at home with the great outdoors. If you go down to the woods today you’re sure of an interiors surprise! Nature is inspiring decor, and a veritable menagerie of creatures, from stags to foxes, is ‘running wild’ in on-trend rooms. “It’s the decorative equivalent of a cosy night in with a steaming mug of hot chocolate,” says Amanda Fox, creative director for The Handpicked Collection, of the theme. “Woodland motifs bring the wild side in. In the summer, it’s a great look because it blurs the boundaries between the home and garden. In autumn and winter you might not always feel like gambolling in the freezing 122 cold, but some tactile and beautiful pieces

made of wood, or evoking woodland, help you feel part of the natural world. “And let’s not forget that woodlands are secretive places where magic happens. A little bit of mystery in the home is no bad thing!” The trend shows no sign of slowing, she adds, pointing out that evoking the natural world in our homes helps us feel less mass-produced, and more at one with nature.

This is such an easy-to-live-with look which can be interpreted in classic manor house style, or by taking a more modern, chic approach which just hints at the great outdoors. Interior designer Joanna Wood

“To achieve a stylish woodland feel in your home, use rural colours and natural motifs. Try neutral shades such as heather, tan and chestnut or bolder tones like berry red, lake

blue, lichen green or lavender violet.

If you’re hoping to achieve a more modern touch, mix in mustard yellow and cooking-apple green as accent colours. You’ve truly been living in the wilderness if you haven’t noticed that those kings of the forest - stags - are a must-have accessory, either as a faux mounted head, or emblazoned on cushions and throws.

MARKS & SPENCER Barletta medium sofa, from £909.30, applique stag cushion (right) £28; Heritage Fair Isle cushion, £9.60

Smaller furry creatures - foxes, squirrels, hedgehogs - are just as fashionable, but if you want to create a truly traditional countryside look, include pheasants, partridges and owls too. Nature’s come a-knocking - it’s time to open your door to all creatures great and small and create your own woodland hideaway...

CLASSIC COUNTRY Hunting lodge style is wooing those yearning for a snug but up-market, rural hideaway, no matter where they live. “Tartan rugs and throws, currently so fashionable, offer an instant Scottish highland feel,” advises Wood. “Add personality by hanging a mix of pictures together, vintage photographs alongside a beautiful oil landscape, or a scenic print, to create a refined feature wall. “For a touch of added luxury, bring in fur cushions and leather furniture and you’ll have a perfect setting. All you need to do then is curl up on in front of a roar124 ing fire.”

INTERVIEW

HOW HAVE THINGS CHANGED FOR YOU SINCE GOTEK7 HAS TAKEN OFF?

“I HAVE SPENT MANY HOURS IN HELICOPTERS, TRACKING RANSOM MONEY AND KIDNAP VICTIMS”

Since then I have been very fortunate to travel the globe and shake hands with presidents, I have spent many hours in helicopters tracking ransom money and kidnap victims in Trinidad, its been a true roller coaster of exciting and hard times. Trinidad was certainly an eye opener. Gotek7 now supplies tracking solutions across the Globe with offices in France and a new one just opened in Ferndown, the future looks bright for Gotek7. We place Tracking devices in belts or even a pair of shoes, lots of people place them in tool boxes, lets face it everyone has a good chance of having something stolen these days, a shame but that’s the reality of it. Everyone’s got something they would hate to have taken from them, with the gotrackgadget not only will you be able to retrieve your property, you will also be able to ensure the ones who stole from you are caught.

SO, GAVIN, HOW DID THIS VENTURE COME ABOUT? My mother always said to me no matter what Christmas present she bought me, I would take it apart and try and make it better. I remember buying some radio transmitters from the USA, I was so excited to receive them, they arrived and I applied a small battery to them. I then pinned them to the garden shed and traveled up the dual carriageway, I need to stop and find a place that had no distractions and hopefully some open space, well Bournemouth football ground car park was just the place. I must of looked a fool standing on the roof of a smart car with a yaggi antenna in my hand facing the direction of west moors, waiting for a signal, then it came, the sound of a small beep on my receiver. I was so over whelmed that I could pick this signal up and my brain then started to go into over drive, this was it, this was the turn in my life when I felt I had something, I just needed to put it all together. I shall never forget that day.

Five minutes with...

Gavin Teale Making a business into a hobby is something that does not happen every day, however for the Director of Gotek7, this is exactly what happened.

We have launched www. gotrackgadget.com especially for those that are wanting to purchase a simple GPS tracker that works in over 200 countries. Its so cool that the board of this device was used inside the world cup in South Africa. If you need to be told when your item moves, now you can, it takes around 6-10 seconds to inform you. Viewing the track Gadget move life from ten seconds is certainly a thrill, this can be viewed on your PC and your mobile phone, click the street view button and watch it move in both modes. Simple and easy to use, that’s the key and it works straight out of the box. The Track Gadget has some great features that can be enjoyed by all, it will automatically inform you when something you love or own arrives or leaves a zone you have set on the panel, it also has a panic button feature, if pressed for more then 3 seconds, it will alert the users preferred contact list within seconds, informing them of the address details where the button has been pressed. The Track gadget was used in the Paris marathon and also the Gumball rally, it was placed in a Bugatti Veyron and allowed thousands to login and watch the race from London to Times Square in New York. There re so many applications for the Track Gadget, we even see it being used to protect plant and machinery.

OUTDOOR LIVING

WHETHER WEATHER IS IMPORTANT TO YOU IT DOESN’T MATTER?

The B200 Outdoor Living® concept is new from Broadview. Enjoy relaxing in your garden all year round with the flexibility of a covered or uncovered outside space you decide. You may want to cover your hot tub or entertain friends by evening in a pleasant ambient atmosphere that a B200 Outdoor Living® system will provide. The B200 Outdoor Living ®provides shelter and can cover small to very large areas thanks to its modular designed frame allowing an unlimited amount of systems to be coupled together side by side. B200 also has a unique louvred open and close slatted roof tilting system so at the touch of a button it can be a waterproof and solid roof one minute, yet completely open the next. Likewise the optional remote control side screens will roll down or up to enclose you fully, partially or to leave

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.

M.W.A.H Make-up, Wigs and Hair

No longer something to dread and disguise, silver hair is soaring up in the style stakes. Lisa Haynes investigates a (growing) grey area. Kelly Osbourne kicked off the trend, Rihanna follicly-followed suit, and Nicole Richie went shocking white... Seems going grey is catching on - no matter what your age. With high profile stars embracing silver tresses, the taboo has been lifted on embracing naturally grey hair. Or has it? The average woman will spend £228.50 a year having their hair coloured, according to a survey by nice’n easy No Ammonia. That’s almost £10,000 on hitting the dye bottles in an average lifetime. Whether you want to enhance it, cover it up, or just let nature take its course, here’s the lowdown on striking silvertoned hair. Time to get your head around some serious grey matter.

GOING GREY While some spot that first flicker of silver in their midtwenties, for others, greys don’t appear until your forties. White or grey hair occurs when the follicle stops producing melanin pigments. Though the process can’t be prevented, beauty giants are locked in a science lab race to produce wonder pills and potions to stop grey hair - permanently. It can come as a shock when your crowning glory starts to change colour. Over two thirds of the female population (67%) aged between 26-60 years claim they’d never want to be seen with grey hair, according to a survey by home hair colour brand Live Salon Style. “When hair starts to grey, it’s

one of the biggest challenges for women both physically and emotionally,” says Norris Ogario, founder and creative director of Ogario Hair Salon. “Women can experience a lack of confidence but also struggle with colour and texture changes too. Grey hair is usually thicker and less shiny, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t still have amazing hair and be proud of your silver tresses.”

EMBRACING GREY Not everyone wants to spend six weeks religiously sitting in the hair colourist’s chair. With grey being the fashion shade du jour, you can wear your natural colour with confidence and even enhance it. “Be confident in your look and make more of a statement with your cut, so you don’t appear out of date or mumsy,” advises Denise McAdam, celebrity hairdresser and ambassador for Nurture Replenish haircare. “White hair looks brilliant in a short, edgy style, or a fabulous sharp bob.” A subtle or extreme change in texture isn’t uncommon during the grey takeover. If your hair’s feeling wiry, it’s down to the fact that greys are often courser than pigmented hair, which can make it trickier to colour. McAdam adds: “Grey hair needs to be in tip-top condition to keep it looking shiny, so make sure your

shampoo and conditioner are hydrating.”

N I W

Well-conditioned, glossy hair can make all the difference between gran and glam when it comes to grey.

CAMOUFLAGING GREY Forget lines and wrinkles. The majority of women who want to mask their grey hair completely, do so because they believe it to be one of the most obvious signs of ageing. If you can handle the maintenance, an all-over colour will send greys packing, well, at least for four to six weeks. “My theory is that you can wear almost any colour, but it must work with your eye colour, skin tone and complexion,” advises Christel Lundqvist, TIGI global technical director. “As you get older, it’s better not to try and recreate the original colour of your hair before you began to go grey, but to re-think the intensity.” Nice’n Easy colour advisor Jonathan Long recommends taking your colour a shade or two lighter as you get older: “This will give you a more youthful, illuminating look, softening the appearance of facial lines and shadows.”

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring. By Nick Fletcher

LOW SUN, NO FUN Road safety charity the IAM is offering tips on dealing with low sun and dazzle in the autumn period. • Always keep a good pair of sunglasses in the car – they really will make a big difference. • If you can’t see, do the obvious thing and slow down, keeping an eye on the vehicle behind in case the following traffic can’t see you against the sun. • If the sun is behind you, it’s in the eyes of drivers coming towards you – be aware that they might not see you or the road markings between you and them. • Low sun behind can dazzle you via your mirrors, so be ready to dip the mirror and remember to check over your shoulder for vehicles in your blind spot. • Low sun highlights scratches and grime which can hinder your view, so keep your washer bottles topped up with a good quality screen wash and change your windscreen wipers every year.

ADD VEHICLE CONTRACTS - WHAT IS CAR LEASING? In its most simple definition, a car ‘lessee’ pays a monthly sum to take possession of a contract car for a period of between typically two to four years. At the end of the term the lessee gives the car back to the dealer/owner and takes a new lease or may opt to buy the car at its value at that point. Why does leasing often get a ‘bigger bounce for your buck’? The amount that a lessee pays over the period of a lease is typically equal to the amount that the contract car (ie; the leased car) will depreciate over that period. According to the AA, after 3 years the average car will have lost around 60% of its value. However, some cars (Audi, Mini or BMW) depreciate much less than others (Ford) and therefore, it may actually be close to the same price to lease an Audi as it is a Ford. A rough example that excludes VAT; a £19,000 Ford might have a forecast depreciation of 50% over 3 years

amounting to c. £9,500. This drives the price of the leasing contract and based on depreciation only, over 36 months the Ford might cost approximately £263 a month. However, for an Audi A4 that has an original value of £29,000 it might only depreciate by 30% across that period and this would mean (based on depreciation only) the monthly price would be £241 per month for a more up market vehicle.

150

Flexibility – although it will increase your payment you can extend the mileage if you like and you can extend the period (which will decrease your monthly payment) and you can opt to buy the car at the end.

Which Car Finance Option is best leasing or buying? This is a subjective question. First you must ask yourself:

Car Leasing Is available for both business & personal users.

What benefits will you get for owning the car? This might include: owning the car for as long as you like; driving an unlimited amount of miles.

Great value November and December deals now available please call our team today for an informal discussion on 01202 862440

What benefits will you obtain from leasing a car? This option most often means lower monthly payments)for driving high quality cars (compared to buying); Smaller deposit/upfront

ELECTRIC FORD FOCUS The Ford Focus Electric is now on sale in the UK, priced from £33,500, with an expected on the road price of £28,500 – allowing for the £5,000 UK Government Plug-in Car Grant. Subject to “the existing pattern of demand”, Ford will initially introduce a low volume of Focus Electric vehicles to the UK, responding to interest from fleet customers and in support of Ford’s market-leading business sales. Ford’s line-up of electrified vehicles in Europe will include:

• Focus Electric which features an advanced electric motor and lithiumion battery powertrain that produces 142hp, achieves a top speed of 85mph and has a driving range of 100 miles. • C-MAX Energi (not initially planned for RHD markets) is Ford’s first production plug-in hybrid and combines hybrid electric technology with a 7.6kWh lithium-ion high-voltage battery. It is targeted to provide CO2 emissions below 50g/km and to run in pure electric mode for more than 18 miles.

• Turn on your headlights before sunset and keep them on for an hour after sunrise so that it’s easier for other drivers to see you in twilight. IAM chief examiner Peter Rodger said: “Dirty windscreens make it even more difficult for drivers to see in the low sun we get every morning and late afternoon as winter draws closer. Your heater is often on the de-mist setting, blowing traffic fumes, suspended oil and smoke onto the inside of the screen which quickly builds up a film of grime which is a major cause of glare. Clean your screen inside and out with glass cleaner at least once a week.”

payment – provided you have a good credit record this will typically be 3 months as opposed to 10 or 20% for a loan.

• Fusion Hybrid which combines a petrol engine with an electric motor and battery, and is capable of reaching 85mph on electric power alone. The combustion engine takes over for higher-demand operation and charges the battery, while electric power is used for vehicle launch and lower speeds. Fusion Hybrid will come to Europe as the Mondeo Hybrid and targets fuel economy above 64mpg and CO2 emissions below 99g/km.

RECIPE

Executive chef, Gary Wicker, shows us how to cook great, simple and tasty food.

Ingredients

Ever heard of Stir- up Sunday? Stir-up Sunday is traditionally the day for everyone in the family to take a turn at stirring the Christmas pudding, whilst making a wish. Christmas puddings were always homemade a month before Christmas Day so the flavours could develop. Traditionally, the mixture must be stirred from East to West in honour of the three Wise Men visiting baby Jesus. Whilst stirring the mixture, each family member should make a secret wish. A coin was traditionally added to the ingredients and cooked in the pudding to bring wealth to whoever found it on their plate on Christmas Day. Here’s your chance to make yours with the family on Sunday 25th November.

As well as offering shoppers more than 40 retailers all under one roof, the Centre is set to offer regular entertainment including live music and children’s entertainment this November and December, plus a festive Santa’s grotto.

The Santa’s grotto, organised by the Rotary clubs of Boscombe, Southbourne and Westbourne, is supporting local charities Coda Fiddle Orchestra, Bournemouth Food Bank and Food Parcels. Children can visit Santa to share their Christmas wishes and will receive a gift.

SCHOOLS

BUCKHOLME TOWERS SCHOOL AND NURSERY “HAPPINESS THROUGH EDUCATION, EDUCATION THROUGH HAPPINESS” Buckholme Towers School and Nursery was founded in 1939 and the motto ‘happiness through education, education through happiness’ has underpinned the school’s ethos ever since. Iain Robertson, headmaster, explains how the school achieves a balance of traditional values combined with an excellent education, with pupils going on to achieve outstanding results. “Buckholme pupils are nurtured in a family environment where traditional values are at the heart of everything we do. We believe wholeheartedly in the advantages of small classes and teaching the children on an individual basis. There is a high ratio of staff to pupils, with a combination of fully qualified teachers, teaching assistants, learning support assistants, and higher level teaching assistants, which means our teachers our teachers get to know the pupils very quickly. For example, if a child is showing a particular talent or they require additional support, these issues can be swiftly identified. This is what makes Buckholme unique. By having smaller classes we can be flexible in the way we organise the children. “In the past, we have moved children who are progressing at a significantly higher rate in a particular subject than their peers, to the year group above. When this happens we involve the parents and the pupil in the decision making process to ensure that it is appropriate. The small classes give us complete flexibility in our timetabling. “Teamwork is greatly valued at Buckholme. Sports, music and the arts provide a platform for children to compete, perform and contribute in the wider community. “In the nursery children start with us from two years and are instantly integrated into the school. Nursery pupils wear the uniform, join school assemblies and share playtimes. They use the IT suite, and learn French and physical education with specialist teachers. Parents of nursery children aren’t obliged to send their children on to the main school, however those pupils that do go through are already familiar with routines, teachers and expectations, and the transition is seamless. “Looking back at the history of the school, many generations of the same families have attended the school and share fond memories of their time here, as in some ways very little has changed. A high percentage of our pupils go on to achieve places at local grammar schools and this is undoubtedly a success factor for many of our parents. We have a ‘can-do’ culture at Buckholme which we are proud of, and this, coupled with a strong work ethic, means that many pupils inevitably achieve outstanding results.”
