Exposure to loud noises and loud music Excessively loud noises can cause permanent hearing damage.

John Regan TEESSIDE AUTHOR My name is John Regan.

I am a born and bred Teessider, massively proud of my northern roots.

My name is John Regan. I am a born and bred Teessider, massively proud of my northern roots. I combine working full-time as a telecom engineer at Openreach, with my writing. To date I have written four novels. A love of the English language and a passion for words led to me join a creative writing course in my late-forties. I had always wanted to write, but never genuinely believed I would complete one, never mind four books. Encouraged and enthused by other members of the class, and a belief that it is never too late to follow your passion, the genesis of my first novel began. Since then I have published four books, all in different genres, available in paperback and eBook. I have appeared on local radio to talk about my work, and have held several book signings in the region. This gives me an opportunity to meet and discuss my novels, and writing in general, with people, which is something I love to do. I would encourage anyone who feels they have a story to tell to go for it, and put pen to paper. I am proof that it really is never too late.

My four published books are: The Hanging Tree, a gritty, adult thriller set locally in Teesside and North Yorkshire. Persistence of Vision, a psychological thriller, The Romanov relic, a comedy thriller, and my latest, The space between our tears, a story about all aspects of love.

Although my first three novels cover adult themes, my fourth, The space between our tears, gave me the opportunity to write about love and all the emotions it encapsulates. It also gave me the chance to include some of my poetry, which is a real passion of mine. The poetry is tailored to fit in with the overall story and has themes such as loss, guilt and death.

I have now started writing the sequel to my first novel, The hanging tree, due to the popularity of this book, and readers expressing an interest in a followup. This book will be titled: The fallen leaves, and will be available in 2019.

I love to hear from people with an interest in reading or writing, and they can contact me. Email: johnregan1965@yahoo.co.uk John Regan – Author

W HITE W EDDING A POP OF COLOUR Celebrities have set the trend for ditching the classic white dress. Sarah Jessica Parker wore a black dress and Paula Yates infamously wore a bright blood red wedding dress. You can choose a subtle tint of colour if you want something individual yet elegant. A light pastel tint is the perfect balance between classic and innovative as it is not too bold.

EXPERIMENT WITH FABRICS If you don’t want lace or silk there’s so many other options out there for you. Using a different fabric is a great way of subtly refreshing your outfit while still looking traditional and classic. Macrame, patterned fabric, embroidery…there’s so much to choose from! If you still want to wear a traditional fabric then embroidery is great way of adding a fresh twist.

GOSSIP A white wedding dress is iconic, what colour a brides dress will be is often never questioned. But it wasn't always this way, wedding dresses were made in a variety of colours until Queen Victoria set the trend by choosing to wear a white lace wedding dress at her wedding to Prince Albert in 1840. Since then a white wedding dress is a classic wedding staple.

There’s so many variations on the classic white wedding dress. Lace or silk? Figure hugging or flowing? There’s so much to choose from. If a traditional white wedding doesn’t appeal to you, why not try something different? it’s your big day, do what you want to! You can go as bold or as subtle you want, something unique can still be demure.

You can play up a traditional outfit by adding some unconventional accessories. You could wear a bold coloured shoe instead of white or nude. This would look fantastic if you are wearing a long dress as you will see a subtle glimpse of your shoes as you step forward. When it comes to accessories the possibilities are endless.

Corduroy Blazer Zara

£69.99 Weddings are a lovely event but let's face it, planning what you are going to wear can be a nightmare! You want to look good but you don't want to be that guest that steals the attention away from bride, but you also don’t want to be underdressed, what a pickle! Here are our top tips to help you out.

The most important thing is to be comfortable, if you are stood shivering you certainly won’t look good! If it is a winter wedding you don’t have to be too covered up, the key is choosing the appropriate cut or fabric. Velvet or long sleeves are great for keeping you warm whilst still looking glamorous. However if you don’t want to wear something long sleeved or in a thicker fabric then a shawl is great for keeping you warm whilst you are outside.

Stay true to your style If you don't normally like to wear dresses or skirts, you don't have to! You won't enjoy yourself if you feel uncomfortable.

There’s so many gorgeous suits out there in funky patterns and fabrics.

The same goes for shoes, if you don’t like heels you don’t have to wear them! Your outfit should be true to your personal style, but maybe don't wear white!

Avoid having an outfit twin There’s nothing worse than arriving at an event and finding out someone is wearing the exact same outfit as you! To avoid having an outfit doppelgänger buy your outfit from a local independent boutique, not only will you be supporting local businesses but most likely the outfits on sale are one of a kind.

TOP NAIL

Deep red nail polish was a must, the 1930’s finishing touch was leaving a crescent moon shape bare at the base of the nail.

Nails were finger tip length and were worn pointed or rounded, not square.

TRENDS

Nails were short and often left bare as 1940’s polish was in short supply. If polish was available it was worn in a subtle light pink shade or simple clear polish was worn to add shine.

THROUGH

Bright red nails paired with bright 1950’s red lipstick was the ultimate glamorous look. Nails were long and almond shaped.

Long oval nails coated in sheer 1960’s shades like pastel pink and shimmery peach were made popular by stars like twiggy and Barbra Streisand.

THE DECADES

The first ever nail polish was sold by

CUTEX IN 1917 but it was

only available in one shade RED!

14

Nails were definitely not subtle, neon 1980’s square shaped nails were bedazzled and often featured colour blocking.

Nails were filed super short and 1990’s dark polish was a must have. Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction wore Rouge Noir by Chanel, sales skyrocketed!

Square french tips were the chic go 2000’s to, famously worn

by Britney Spears in her 2003 Toxic music video.

2006

Want something different?

You've tried all the modern nail trends and now you want something different. For some inspiration, here are the top nail trends through the decades.

So retro! So chic!

Disco set the trend for shimmer and 1970’s glamour. Nails were super shimmery and were very long and square.

IANNI VERSACE

Coco Chanel was a French business woman who was the founder and namesake of the Chanel brand, founded in 1910.

She liberated post world war I women by introducing a new casual style, moving fashion away from restrictive corsets towards fashion that was comfortable and practical yet still stylish and chic. Her signature perfume, Chanel No.5 is an infamous scent. Quilted bags, pearls, loose tailoring and red lipstick are quintessential Chanel style staples.

aka Versace

Gianni Versace is the founder of Versace, a luxury Italian brand founded in 1978. Known for their use of bright colours and vivid patterns, Versace exudes excess and luxury. Versace is wonderfully over the top. Proud of his Italian heritage, Gianni often incorporated ancient Greek motifs into his work, the most notable is he mythical Medusa head brand logo. After Gianni’s death in 1997 his sister Donatella took over all aspects of the label.

YSL pioneered the tuxedo suit for women, often creating strikingly androgynous outfits for his models, a very bold forward choice at the time. His “Le Smoking Suit” was despised by critics at first but soon became iconic, innovative and well respected by critics.

IVIENNE ISABEL SWIRE Vivienne Westwood was a pioneering fashion figure in the 1970’s punk movement, bold patterns, safety pins and huge hair. Everything iconic about punk stemmed from Westwood, her legacy is huge, she single handedly revolutionised 1970’s fashion. Her fashion was worn by Madonna in her early career. Siouxsie Sioux and The Sex Pistols were also fans of her work.

GOSSIP My name is My name is

Claire Johnson

IN BUSINESS My name is

Angela H Eveelernett

After being in the fitness industry for 9 years, I made a huge jump two and a half years ago to take my career on a different path, leaving a local authority as a health coordinator/fitness instructor, I decided to go ‘solo’ with ‘Fitness classes with Claire’. This is when ‘Clubbercise Cleveland’ was born! Clubbercise is an exercise class in a darkened room with Glowsticks featuring 90’s Club anthems. Due to the low lighting it minimises any worries due to confidence and ability. We have great fun, laugh (usually at my expense), sweat and get fit at the same time. The atmosphere is awesome, it amazes me how shy, worried ladies grow, make lots of friends and end up joining me in my other classes - Zumba, Zumba Gold, HIIT, Bums & tums. I also run ‘Whipped into Shape’, a 10 week educational & weight loss program & a monthly community walking group.

Hello, my name is Angela and I started my hairdressing career in a private college in Middlesbrough in the early 80s. I went on to serve a full apprenticeship at the most highly regarded hair salon of its time, Jacob & Erik of Copenhagen. A few years later, I began my own mobile hairdressing business which I ran successfully for over ten years before I became a full time Mum. When our eldest daughter Alexandra was nine months old, my husband began a new career in the far East, and we moved there as a family.

Our youngest daughter Amelia was born in Brunei and we enjoyed many happy years living there before returning to the UK.

We are involved in many charity fund raising events for local causes and each year we join the masses at Seaton’s Boxing Day Dip. This year 40+ members of my classes will be attending with me on behalf of the ‘Neoangels Charity’ and I’m so proud of my ‘Glow Queens’ for doing it with me. I’ve always enjoyed working with the Public, I have a very bubbly......some say loud personality but this certainly goes a long way to creating a fab environment for my classes.

We opened a small holiday cottage business in Whitby which kept me busy for a few years, but I always wanted to return to my previous profession. I went to Saks to complete a refresher course which involved being salon based. I am fortunate to have had a friend who owns one of Middlesbrough’s leading salons and he kindly allowed me to work there in order for me to complete the course.

I myself started exercising many years ago due to being massively over weight and understand it’s a big leap to attend a class at first but I want to make it enjoyable enough for people to carry on their journey. My two daughters 14 & 20yrs old help me along with my mum and great friends - we certainly are a formidable team.

I continue to work in the salon every Monday and still enjoy the salon environment which also enables me to keep up to date with the ever changing techniques within the industry.

I hold classes in Billingham,Thornaby and Stockton on mornings & evenings. Come along and join our ‘Glowteam’ - I guarantee giggles & fitness.

Take a look on my Facebook page, pick a class off the timetable and give it a go!

My Name is

y a D i l A My family and friends will tell you I live a nomadic life, flying all over the place, travelling has always been a passion of mine. However, I have chosen to come back home to Teesside and am very excited about doing my meditation classes and retreats in the area.

Having spent nearly 20 years doing Tarot readings, workshops and retreats, I became more and more interested in how mindfulness and meditation can help with mental and emotional issues.

Five years ago I started to go through the menopause and experienced terrible anxiety and depression. It really started to impact my life so I started researching into what could help me calm my mind and improve my moods.

Mindfulness and meditation have helped empower me immensely. www.wiseowloracle.com was

tribute to the incredible hard work and dedication that has been invested in the cafe by our amazing talented team, who have worked with such care and passion, to bring beautiful fresh food and an incredible warm welcome to the centre of Middlesbrough” Everybody at The Smeltery really cares about what they do, the proof is in the pudding! The cafe creates a constant social buzz, with a hive of activity in their open theatre kitchen.

Business Advice from Supercharge your Marketing Do I need a website?

The quick answer is YES! But the benefits of a website come from

understanding what it can do for you. The first thing a potential new customer will do is Google you. They will look for your website to find out what you look like and what you offer. They will find you on social media to see what you say and they will check Google Pages to see if you have any reviews. A potential customer feels more trusting if a company has a website as it seems more established. A website will give your potential new customer an insight into what products or services you offer, what your premises looks like, maybe give prices and advise how to contact you. Most people will do this on their phone or tablet which means your website should be mobile responsive, if it’s not, it will be difficult to navigate and they may just give up. Think of your website as your online shop window, ask friends and family to give you some honest feedback. Does it tell them what you do?

Do they know how to contact you? Can they find the information they need easily? Is it quick to load on screen? If you have a website, it’s useful to run a review every couple of months to ensure it’s running properly. If you don’t have a website, then you need to get one.

“No external alterations are proposed.

The empty shop has been left empty for too long, it is fantastic to see the building being put to good use again. The former Teesside Hospice charity shop will become a upmarket beauty salon.

Located between Diana Kaye florist and the Darlington Building society on the High Street, will be transformed into a salon.

The building will have a variety of treatment and therapy rooms for luxury beauty and spa treatments.

The change of use was permitted on September 25 after being submitted in early August.

An officer’s report accompanying the decision said: “Physical works internally include the alteration to first floor room partitions to create new beauty therapy rooms and an enlarged toilet area through removal of existing partition walls and installation of new partitions.

The report adds: “This application is for the change of use of a former charity shop to a beauty salon and relates to the ground and first floors. The site lies in the Yarm Conservation area in the town centre and two full time employees will staff the salon.

The salon, which was applied for

by Lucy Knowles, will be open 9am to 8pm during the week and 9am to 6pm on Saturdays. An opening date has not yet been set.

Pretty Little Flowers T: 07846475342 E: jessica@prettylittle-flowers.co.uk

Jess Pilkington wanted something a bit different when it was her wedding but she couldn’t find any decorations that she liked. Noticing a gap in the market for quirky wedding decorations in Teesside, she set up her own business.

Pretty Little Flowers has flourished and now offers a wide variety of show stopping wedding decorations. Offering stunning artificial flowers, doughnuts and Prosecco 'walls' and arches for wedding venues - and Jess is even branching out into giant trees.

It all started when she was planning her own big day with partner of ten years, Christopher.

She loves anything that is different, she has a passion for creativity and wanted to give people their dream wedding decorations. The doughnut walls started as an 'experiment', she added, but have turned out to be among her best sellers. The wow factor is what is important to Jess, she wants guests to be amazed when they arrive at an event. Jess has branched out for wedding decorations and now takes bookings for everything from baby showers to engagements as well as nuptials are coming in fast, including into next year.

Christmas Gift Inspiration

Sometimes chocolate and toiletries can seem like a predictable gift. You want to give a gift that is memorable and well appreciated. Here’s our top pointers to get you thinking.

1

1. Make their daily routine easier. Are they out on their feet all day? If they are a busy person then why not give them something that will make their daily routine easier. A portable charger will really help someone who is dashing around and doesn’t have time to sit and wait for their phone to charge. Useful gifts are often highly appreciated.

2

3

2. A happy place theme. The best gifts are heartfelt and personal, have they got a favourite holiday or a particular place that means a lot to them? Why not theme their gift around this place. Food, drink, books and artwork. There are so many ways to theme a gift around a beloved place.

3. A personalised hamper. Instead of buying general festive food items why not create a hamper that is personal to them.

Fill a basket with all of their favourite snacks, the more unique the better.

The fact that you have paid attention and know what they like is what makes them feel appreciated and loved.

Christmas is fast approaching. Have you got your dog its advent calendar yet?

When choosing treats and toys for your dog its important to be selective, think what does your dog enjoy playing with. Is the toy safe and suitable?

Whilst most dogs love treats, it's important not to go overboard as this can cause upset stomachs. If you are thinking of giving your dog a Christmas dinner make sure it is something they can eat and do not put gravy on it unless it's doggy gravy.

However they may want to celebrate with you over a Bottom Sniffer Beer or a glass of Pawsecco. P.S don't forget the cats, small furries, birds and ďŹ sh.

JD TRAINING OPENING DOORS FOR A BIG BANG On Sunday 4th November, when thousands were looking up to the skies down by the riverside to view the spectacular fireworks display hosted by Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council, JD Training opened it’s doors to family, friends and JPC Community Farm to get the perfect view of the display from their offices on Silver Street.

JD Training, an accredited training company offering training solutions in a wide range of courses, celebrated bonfire night with friends and family while also showing their support for newly established, local charity, JPC Community Farm. Annette Heath and Pam Wilkinson, with the support of their family and friends, opened their doors and pulled out all the stops - organising games and activities for the children as well as offering a delicious spread of home-baked food and sweet treats so that everyone could enjoy the sights of the firework display in comfort and with plenty of fun!

During the evening, they managed to raise an incredible £360!

T O L I N M A H LEWIS wins fifth Formula One world title at the Mexico Grand Prix!

Lewis is a proud supporter of JPC Community Farm and we couldn’t be more proud of him. His hard work and dedication is an inspiration to us all. Lewis is now a five-time world champion after he secured the title at the Mexican Grand Prix. Lewis was at peak performance during his face off against Sebastian Vettel. Lewis is infamous for his motivation and determination.

“It’s definitely the best year I feel,” he said. “It was the goal when I won the championship last year. I asked how can I improve? How can I be fitter, more focused, manage my time better? How can I be a better all-round driver, not just in the car but with my team in the garage, with the engineers and in the factory. “I feel this year I have been able to lift them all up. I don’t know if that comes with age but I am sure experience helps and I feel like I have performed my best this year.”

He said: "In my mind, it is another day of fighting and I still have more races to win. It is not over for me. "I have to go back and work with the engineers, debrief, get my mind right, start training again next week and get in gear so we can try to win [the next race] in Brazil.

2032

Mercedes have won every single championship since turbo hybrid engines were introduced into F1 in 2014, which raises the real possibility that Hamilton could soon match Schumacher's all-time record of both championships and race wins. Hamilton is on 71 victories; Schumacher won 91. However Hamilton said it was too soon to consider that. One thing is certain, Lewis shows no signs of slowing down.

Christopher Joh

On Friday the 2nd November, the wonderful Swift Family, along with Christopher Johnson of Wainstones Hotel, held a charity night in memory of Garbutt Johnson and in aid of JPC Community Farm.

What a wonderful evening this was with delicious food and a warm atmosphere which began with talented young James Muir, age 11, playing his saxophone for us all. Paul and Julie Connaughton, founders of JPC Community Farm, were overwhelmed by the kindness and effort of the organisers, but also all the local businesses in Stokesley and surrounding areas along with friends and supporters who kindly donated raffle prizes and tombola prizes for the night.

The Swift/Johnson family raised £806 in total on the night - this is a fabulous amount and will go a long way in support of JPC Community Farm. We would like to pass on Thanks from Julie, Paul and James Connaughton and all the JPC family.

Look your best this season

Whether you’re going on a date or you just want to look good, It’s the finishing touches that make a difference

Have a signature fragrance

Keep your shoes

To have a lasting impact on your dates, you need to have a signature fragrance. If you wear the same fragrance each time you see your date it will be specific to you. If they smell that scent when you are not around it will make them think of you.

No matter how expensive your shoes are, they won’t look good if they are dirty and tatty. Rain and puddles can stain your shoes and make them look past their prime. Keep your shoes pristine by using a waterproofing shoe spray, it will protect your shoes to maintain that fresh out the box look.

Don’t forget your nails You don’t have to have a full manicure, just make sure your nails are clean and neat. Dirty and jagged nails can be a major turn off!

A simple nail file and a nail brush will make you look finished and polished, perfect for when you want to hold hands with a special someone. Accessories Tool Kit. Boots £10.
