Success at the Munster Property Auction

with 16 out of 20 properties sold

he first Munster Property Auction of 2014 was held on the 7th of May which is a partnership of estate agents from around the province. Auctioneers from Waterford included Purcell Properties, Waterford, Property Partners Barry Herterich, Tramore, & Radley Auctioneers Dungarvan. The auction team noted 150 people in attendance and indeed there were strong interest in almost all the properties on offer. The lots on offer ranged in value from €45,000 to €410,000 and there was a wide variety of properties on offer. Due to strong interest in the lead up to the auction, some of the properties were successfully sold prior to the auction. Offered on the night was a mixture of 16 residential properties and 4 commercial premise’s. There were several lots which well exceeded their quoted prices on the night including over 20 registered bidders on 352 Blarney Street, Cork which was sold in partnership with Property Partners Matt Fallon. The property was offered at bids over €89,000 however an early bidder came forward on the night with an strong initially bid of €100,000 in an attempt to scare away other interest. Other parties in the room were not swayed however and there were 16 further bids on the property with the auctioneer dropping the hammer at €126,000. One property close to Tramore received strong interest and was successfully sold prior by the auction team in partnership with Property Partner Herterich. The 200 year old cottage in Bunmahon, Waterford had over 20 parties express an interest prior to the auction and was sold at €60,000, which was 20% higher than the quoted price. Another property which gathered significant bidding was Cloghane, Dingle sold in partnership with Fitzgerald & Associates. There were 25 interested parties before Wednesday evening’s

auction and auction team noted that their extensive marketing campaigns help ensures the properties on offer receive the right exposure. Bidding opened just below the quoted starting bids of €49,950 and built momentum quickly. There were two phone bidders pushing the bidding along with further interest in the room. One of the phone bidders was the successful bidder with an impressive final sales price of €83,000, over 60% higher than the quoted price. An impressive 16 out of the 20 properties offered were sold giving the auction team an 80% success ratio. Gerry Owens of The Munster Property Auction was quoted “there is certainly an increase in activity in the market and we had multiple enquiries and viewings on all the properties offered here tonight. The key to the success of our auction is that both cash buyers and mortgage purchasers can buy through the auction, ensuring we maximise the interest in the property and give everyone a fair chance. And with no entry fees or marketing costs to our auctions, the pressure is on us to ensure we achieve results for our clients”. The Munster Property Auction are inviting entries for their upcoming July auction. With hundreds of registered buyers and the impressive success rate, it seems the Munster Auction is the way forward for property owners looking to sell. This auction, which works in partnership with a host of estate agents from across Munster offer properties for sale via their online auction and public auctions. And with no upfront costs or marketing fees, this option is becoming increasing attractive. The Munster Property Auction are now welcoming entries for their ongoing online auctions and their next public auction taking place on the 10th July and there are no costs to enter the auction.

ROAST VEGETABLES When people ask me for cooking tips I always resort to old favourites that I know work and are simple. Food tastes best when it’s uncomplicated. So here is my easy foolproof vegetable accompaniment to any meal. ROAST VEGETABLES WITH OLIVE OIL & HONEY Two medium white onions Two red onions A red, green and yellow pepper Three carrots Three Parsnips Half a cup of olive oil Half a cup of honey. Prepare the vegetables to a slightly larger than bite size rough cut ﬁnish and place

in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and honey. Gently combine everything until the vegetables are well coated with oil and honey. Place the vegetables onto a baking tray and roast for about twenty ﬁve minutes. Do not overcook. Try this vegetable dish with

a Sunday Roast or for a midweek super on a bed of rice. You can also prepare this dish a day in advance. Very tasty easy and simple. The Granary Café is in O’Connell Street, Waterford

TOP TEN BY MAX CASEY

Business of the week Mum N Me Has a bad word ever been said about Mum N Me? This excellent baby shop located in Tramore Road Business park is unquestionably one of, if not the best place in the county for anything related to babies. The location is large and spacious and is a pleasure to walk through compared to the often cramped surrounding that characterise baby shops. The selection here is unprecedented, whatever your

needs may be you will always be met with a wide variety of choice and an extremely helpful staff that will help you ﬁnd whatever you need. On top of this Mum N Me features a great online store so you can shop from home. I wholeheartedly recommend Mum N Me. aboucharacterise baby shops. On top of this Mum N Me features a great online store so you can shop from home. I wholeheartedly recommend Mum N Me.

Hotel of the week The Granville Hotel The Granville Hotel is a city landmark, located on the Quay the hotel dominates all around it, its perfectly matched colour scheme, turn-of-thecentury doorway and sheer size are all symbols of the city itself and it is Waterford’s most recognizable sign when you cross the bridge. There is a reason why The Granville is the #1 hotel in Waterford according to TripAdvisor, it excels in every area;

the staff are excellent, the location is perfect, and whether you need food, a meeting or a wedding there is nowhere like The Granville Hotel, I cannot recommend this location enough.

Film of the week Bad Neighbours Bad Neighbours was a real surprise for me, a ﬁlm I expected to be mediocre at best quickly revealed itself to be the funniest comedy of the year so far and probably the best movie I’ve seen so far in 2014. The story is simple enough, a newlywed couple with a baby move into their quiet new suburb to ﬁnd out that the house beside them has been sold to a college fraternity and is now the nightly

site for endless partying and debauchery. The ﬁlm is bursting with jokes, most of the best of which were not shown in the trailers, I recommend it.

Lunch of the week The Moorings Pub Located right on the seafront at Dungarvan this pub features some of the best food you can get in the county, once you enter the freshness and quality of the food is immediately apparent. The pub has a warm and friendly atmosphere, the service is perfect but it is the food that surpasses all else. The ﬁsh is the highlight for me but whatever you decide on you will

be pleasantly surprised by. The location ﬁnds a way to make the most traditional of pub dishes new again. I highly recommend the Moorings Pub in Dungarvan for whatever your culinary desires may be.

Book of the week Darragh McKeon – All That is Solid Melts into Air It seems to have become a common practice in recent years to have books start with several different characters in completely different places and even times, characters who have never met and are seemingly unconnected at the start of the novel. The Lowland, The Luminaries and A Tale for the Time Being were all popular books from last year that toyed with the idea in interesting ways and All That

is Solid Melts into Air continues the trend and is a very interesting book because of it. It is the ﬁrst book by Irish born Darragh McKeon and takes place in Russia in 1986: a nine-year Moscow piano prodigy, a secretive hard working aunt in the outskirts of the city, a doctor who can’t face his home, and a teenager trapped in the middle of the Chernobyl disaster are our characters for this book, it’s an engaging and fascinating meditation on such a tragic disaster and I recommend it.

Waterford Truck & Motor Show Located in the Airport Business Park, this year’s Waterford Truck and Motor Show is set to be the best one yet, including custom vehicles, vintage cars, motorcycles and lorries as well as a children’s play area, live music and constant entertainment throughout the two days. The event is in support of the Waterford Hospice movement and the team behind it are hoping to help the building of a palliative care unit at Waterford Regional Hospital, a project currently badly

underfunded. I highly recommend you all take part, even if you are not into trucks and motors there is plenty to enjoy here, the event will take place from Saturday to Sunday.

Pub of the Week Thomas Maher Pub Thomas Maher’s pub is one with a history. It was home to who was considered the oldest living publican, 92 year old Thomas Maher, famous for pioneering the smoke free bar, not having Guinness due to a dispute over prices and being one of the last pubs in Ireland (the last pub in Ireland?) to refuse service to women. Indeed, Maher’s wouldn’t serve women until after Thomas Maher had died in 2012 which is

bizarre to think but would also be ignoring what makes this pub such a special location. It is a pub of extreme tradition, with it’s friendly atmosphere and old fashioned style . Every visit to Maher’s is one that will linger on in your mind long after you leave, I heartily recommend it.

Album of the week

Activity of the week

The Riptide Movement- Getting Through Getting Through is the new album by increasingly famous Irish rock band The Riptide Movement and is their best one yet. The band are known for their catchy, light hearted uptempo rock music and memorable vocals that make them one of the best plain fun rock bands operating in the country at the minute, two years on

from ‘Keeping on, Keeping on’ the band have become slicker but this quality remains unchanged for the most part. Where this changed is in attempts at more introspective, down tempo songs that do a good job of diversifying the album, ‘Across the Water’ especially. I recommend this album for anyone a fan of a fun, never boring rock album.

Car dealer of the week Tom Murphy Car Sales Located on the Cork Road, Tom Murphy Car Sales is poised as one of Waterford’s best dealerships with cordial service, state of the art facilities and extremely reasonable prices, there is no reason not to try Tom Murphy Car Sales. Tom Murphy was established in 1979 and specializes in Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen cars, both used and new and the selection on display is simply stunning. They have some of the best facilities in the

DVD of the Week The Wolf of Wall Street The Wolf of Wall Street was probably the best movie of 2013. Coming from director Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill and Matthew McConaughey; the ﬁlm is about a group of stockbrokers who decide to start artiﬁcially raising the price of penny stocks and then selling them at extraneous prices, defrauding anyone who invested. It’s not necessary to understand what they did, what’s important is

county including showrooms for different brands of cars, 21 workshop bays a drive through service reception (the ﬁrst in Europe). The staff are all very helpful and will deliver the best of service.

the lifestyle and pure emptiness of the characters, seeing them unashamedly move from one hell to the next. The film industry has given us lots of films critical of Wall Street, and for good reason, but there hasn’t been a film criticizing the lifestyle this much since American Psycho; it’s a sick, depraved and absolutely hilarious masterpiece.

CROSSWORDS All of the clues relate to Catchwords. Can you ďŹ nd the words then ďŹ t them correctly into the grid?

Working relationships are high profile - yet so too might be the needs of someone close who needs to talk through a problem. You could end up spending time with one person and fielding calls from the other. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the tricky dilemma of food and eating whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right for you: though digestive problems could be fixed. You could feel at an emotional disadvantage. Explaining your reactions might not be easy. Indeed, to someone who knows you very well, it may appear that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re putting on a performance. Their concern for you may be too stifling presently. Soaring costs of an event threaten to destabilise you. Yet, as soon as you access your â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bargaining sub-personalityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, you could do a deal that solves a few problems at one go. Your thrift management could bring you to the attention of a close colleague or relative whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toying with a similar dilemma. You could do one of two things: switch off your emotions or turn them full on. You might not be easy to live with presently! A close colleague or companionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work dilemma requires their total concentration - but could leave you feeling neglected. Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Full Moon accents the very back-bone of your solar chart. Both professionally and emotionally, outstanding matters could come to a head. Note that this Full Moon comes just after an opposition of Venus (in another Fire sign) to Mars. It maybe that you recognise that either you and a certain person pull together better. You may be asked to make a decision with regard to a working partnership. There are financial over-tones and you may then be involved with some riskassessment. At a networking-type event, you could meet someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worked in your field and whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s making plans to move on.

SUDOKU

It may be time to jump to attention in financially-based partnership matters and in balancing the work and play elements of your life. Technology might not help here. Tension could arise in a relationship over a computer. Inner tension could come through sugar imbalance. Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Full Moon is in your sign which Saturn is already transiting. And yes, this could prove a tough week as a result. This Full Moon follows an opposition of Venus to Mars (one of your ruling planets). Add to this, Pluto at the midpoint of these two and yes, this could prove a very important time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most interesting that though the recent Grand Cross was in Cardinal signs of the zodiac, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s those (like yourself) born under the Mutable signs of Gemini, Virgo and Pisces - who seem to be making the most of changing conditions. Just how much someone is held back by the past could be so apparent. Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Full Moon is in the sign of Scorpio - presently transited by Saturn (your ruling planet). So, it could be that you have a tough call to make this week. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hinted at by the opposition of Venus to Mars just ahead of this Full Moon and yes, you could find yourself at odds with a member of a team. Dealing with a large company or institution seem likely - and could turn out to be a sport in which you excel. You may be able to effect a discount or moneyback offer. Your persistence and knowledge of rules earns you respect. Concern for a relative some distance away, could prompt contact. As you well know, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all in the flairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; - which is exactly why youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re key to an organisation: you see things other miss. Today you could tune in to an under-current and alert someone to a potential problem. A drama could be brewing. Your skill at handling someone (probably born under Cancer) - could astound a colleague.

â&#x20AC;˘ Max Casey takes a look at the best of music, ďŹ lm and literature â&#x20AC;˘

),/0 %OXH 9HOYHW

It seems every country has their own variant on surrealism that is distinct to that very country. Irish surrealism coming from the likes of Beckett is wholly separate from the Italian of Fellini and both are completely separate from the American approach of David Lynch. Blue Velvet is heavily inďŹ&#x201A;uenced with that 50s Americana aesthetic but melded with elements from the 1980s. The young peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fashion is extremely old fashioned but everyone has gaudy perms covered in hairspray, while the older characters look much more contemporary (for 1986 that is) the cars are all from the ďŹ fties as is the style of the local diner, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a strange melding of styles but it gives the ďŹ lm an incredibly unique look. The ďŹ lmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story is surreal enough, a young man named Jeffery while coming back from the hospital to see his father ďŹ nds a severed ear in the middle of a ďŹ eld. He tell the police

but decides to start his own investigation with one of the detectiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughters, Sandy. Sandy leads him on to a woman called Dorothy Vallens, a nightclub singer whose apartment Jeffery decides to sneak into one night and is exposed to the dark underbelly of the town of Lumberton. The opening of the ďŹ lm is steeped in symbolic foreshadowing, a perfect picture of suburbia is shown, of a middle class family enjoying a sunny day off, then the shot transforms and we are now underground watching a horde of beetles; seemingly representing the seedy underbelly of this perfect suburban town that we will spend the next two hours exploring. David Lynch uses classical ďŹ lm techniques but subverts them, the introduction of Sandy is ďŹ tted with this orchestral sweep and treated like the return of a goddess but how her clothes and hair are designed make her remarkably unattractive, same

with our main character. The ďŹ lm seems to in ways act like a parody, it puts silly and gaudy elements of the past on to this pedestal and treats them like their part of a grand epic tale. Certain elements of surrealism in the ďŹ lm are very loud and shoved in your face but Lynch also has an eye for subtlety and manages to imbue almost every scene in the ďŹ lm with this sense of unease, as if something is wrong but you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put your ďŹ nger on what it is. The ďŹ lm is highly sexual and occasionally very unsettling, Dorothy seems to spend the entire ďŹ lm being abused by Frank and the journey she goes through is harrowing to say the least. Blue Velvet is a ďŹ lm you either love or hate, its plot is quite disjointed, it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be unfair to call Lynch a sexist and its mix of horrifying acts and wacky surrealism makes Fargo look straight laced, but it is a classic all the same and I recommend it.

-RVHSK +HOOHU &DWFK 3W ,, Catch-22 revels in the absurd and the illogical, people act insane, absurd things happen and very little of it seems to make much sense. Even the island itself is guilty of this, Heller states in the foreword of the book that Pianosa is far too small to accommodate all the events and actions that take place on it over the course of the book and yet it does happen, before the book even starts we are faced with the illogical. Heller saw war as the ultimate breakdown of logic and this is what he tries to capture in Catch-22. Everything is askew, the narrative is non-linear with constant back and forths in the timeline, people experience impossible to comprehend inďŹ&#x201A;ictions (ex: the man who saw everything twice) and they act with what seems like a total lack of common sense and reasoning. The absurdity is highlighted later on when a plane crashes into a mountain but a man who was on the plane

according to the records, is actually on the ground and perfectly ďŹ ne. Everyone presumes heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dead, even when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standing right beside them, his wife gets sent letters stating he is dead, and he is refused service all over the island because he is apparently dead. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense at all. The tone of the book dramatically shifts in the last ďŹ fty to seventy pages, before that the book is quite light hearted, missions are rare and most of the time weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re either in Pianosa or Rome on holidays, but once the end comes near the book becomes

very dark. People die left and right, scenes of gore are often (one in the last twenty pages will stay with you for a while) and Yossarianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s misanthropy and nihilism because of the war are given extra emphasis. Yossarian is burned out on the war, as are we by the 500th or so page, like him by this point we just want the death to stop and the war to end. As time went on the book fell out with the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Greatest Generationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that it documents, nowadays the American ďŹ ghters in that war would rather be characterized by Band of Brothers or Saving Private Ryan instead of your Catch-22â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or Slaughterhouse 5â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re nothing but terriďŹ ed and unheroic teenagers. You should not let this stop you, Catch-22 is a deďŹ nitive novel on war and portrays it in a way previously unseen of in literature, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unconcerned with heroism, nationalism or even the misery of it all, Catch-22 is about the sheer illogicality of it.

Another Green World sounds like a deďŹ nitively 70s album. The 1970s was the decade when electronic instrumentation really started to enter the mainstream, it was when minimalism started to show inďŹ&#x201A;uence on both rock and pop, and it was the decade that housed the deeply connected genres of glam and punk. Another Green World embodies all of these elements and so much more, and although it did not enter the charts anywhere it is still one of the best albums ever made. Another Green World set the groundwork for a lot of Enoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work to come, you can hear him breaking away from his earlier art-pop sound in favour of the ambient work that would go on to deďŹ ne his later career, the album moves from genre to genre with every song constantly shifting what you expect. The variety on display on this album is deďŹ nitely commendable, it has the feel of a genius in his craft throwing in everything together and seeing what comes out. The songs are

short, usually lasting less than three minutes, and every single one is incredibly unique and creative. There is a strong sense of whimsy on the album, especially on songs like St Elmoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fire and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll Come Running, this materializes in both the music and the lyrics, with the rhythm of St Elmoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fire having this airy, fast moving and dreamy pace. The album also features some slower, piano driven songs

near the end like Zawinul/ Lava and Spirits Drifting that contrast very heavily with the synth dominant pieces of the ďŹ rst half. Brian Eno was always a musician interested in and being inďŹ&#x201A;uenced by music far outside of the conventional and this quality is magniďŹ ed in Another Green World. Listeners have commented on connections of Another Green World to all sorts of music from African polyrhythms to the traditional music of Burma, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incredible how eclectic and far reaching Enoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inďŹ&#x201A;uences go and make each of his albumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible to predict. Another Green World is an apt title for the album, it does indeed feel like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve entered another world when we listen to the album, where all these disparate elements, genres and technologies are drawn together at this exact moment of time and used to create this completely unique album, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing like it.

1HLJKERXUV Neighbors is Animal House, but told through the perspective of Dean Wormer (John Vernon). Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Old School, if that juvenile frat-guy comedy sympathized with Jeremy Pivenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hysterically oily and conniving Dean Pritchard. In other words, Neighbors cleverly presents the archetypal party-hungry college hooligans, but asks us to now side with the older, out-of-touch losers on the outside of the celebration, looking in. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly why the fresh, relatable comedy works as well as it does. Nicholas Stoller also directs comedies that tend to avoid clear-cut â&#x20AC;&#x153;good guysâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;bad guys.â&#x20AC;? Kristen Bellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bombshell wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a bitch in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, so our allegiances often shifted between her and her sad-sack ex (played by Jason Segel).

stretched, the harder it was to know whose side to take in the marital squabbles between Segel and the beautiful Emily Blunt. So even when the war escalates between the badly behaved members of the Delta Psi fraternity and the peace-seeking suburbanites of a once-quiet neighborhood, we rarely know which partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most at fault. All we know for sure is the fact that the combatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funny as hell. Neighbors pulls off a bit of mature miscasting by asking Seth Rogen to play the â&#x20AC;&#x153;responsibleâ&#x20AC;? adult. He successfully sheds the slacker cape he usually adorns to play Mac, new dad and semi-hard worker who has sunk every penny he and his wife, Kelly (Rose Byrne), have into their new home. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re setting up shop for their baby girl Stella (twins Elise and Zoey Vargas, giving the most adorable child

performance Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen on screen in decades), and are horriďŹ ed when members of the Delta Si frat move in next door. Neighbors goes beyond the easy Geeks vs. Greeks, and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be dismissed as a one-joke comedy. Stoller actually could trim the runtime of Neighbors, as the back-and-forth between the warring parties goes from inspired to childish and more than a bit exhausting (particularly in the explosive ďŹ nale). But the ďŹ lm has multiple, huge laughs. It plays extremely well with a crowd, particularly one that can be plugged in to the movieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anarchistic rivalry. But that works against it, in a sense. Neighbors is worth your time, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also one of those relentlessly dirty comedies that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll watch on cable months after you belly laughed through it with your friends and wonder what, exactly, was so hysterical.

Top 5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LASER HAIR REMOVAL

fectively. There after you will return every 6 weeks for treatment.

1. Technology Make sure you look for medical-grade laser as opposed to Intense Pulse Light or “IPL” which is technically not laser at all but offered by a lot of other clinics and salons. Therapie Clinic uses only medical-grade lasers which means superior results in fewer sessions.

4. Post –treatment You will be encouraged to apply Aloe Vera gel to the area post treatment and must avoid hot showers or baths, swimming or use of sauna or steam rooms for 24-48 hours after treatment. You must also use a high SPF on the area during sun exposure.

2. Patch test At Therapie Clinic, the first step is a free consultation and patch test to ensure you are compatible to laser. Not everyone is suitable, so be careful not to waste your money – insist on a patch test wherever you go!

5. Results No more painful waxing and time consuming shaving; no more in grown hairs or stubbly legs, instead smooth and silky skin, day in day out. A minimum of six treatments is generally recommended but you will notice a significant difference after just 2-3 treatments. You will also notice a significant cost saving. Take the Hollywood bikini area, you’ll pay around €60 for a wax each month whereas laser works out at just €75 per treatment and after six - you’re done! You may require a top up once or twice a year or even less frequently, it varies per person but essentially it’s a case of no more waxing and shaving. Contact Therapie Clinic 31 Barronstrand Street, Waterford on (051)870910 for your free consultation today!

3. Pre-treatment Four weeks prior to your first laser session you will need to stop waxing, tweezing, bleaching, using depilatory creams, basically all forms of hair removal (other than shaving), and then cleanly shave the area the night before your session. It is also recommend that you gently exfoliate the area the week before, and again the week after treatment. This really prepares the skin and also helps the hairs come out of the follicle more ef-

THE motivational posters say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better to have a life of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;oh wellsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; instead of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;what ifsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, so last weekend in an effort to try something new and challenging, I went to try AntiGravity Yoga in Carlow. AntiGravity Yoga is a combination of yoga, aerial acrobatics, dance and pilates. Strong fabric hammocks are suspended from a sturdy metal frame and Carmel, our instructor, informed us that each hammock can support a weight equivalent to a baby elephant. It was developed by Christopher Harrison, a former Broadway dancer and gymnast who formed the aerial performance team AntiGravity. And later when he discovered the beneďŹ ts of yogic inverted poses he combined them with the hammock and AntiGravity Yoga was born. Like a lot of things, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge in the States and just starting here. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suitable for most people and according to their website â&#x20AC;&#x2DC; if you can do 3 consecutive sit ups, you can do AGÂŽ Aerial Yogaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. In fact the class was very mixed, from guys in their early twenties to ladies in their mid-ďŹ fties and plenty in between. Upside down Everyone was able to do most poses and, surprisingly we were all upside down within 20 minutes of starting.

This is one of the big selling points of Anti Gravity Yoga. This type of suspension training allows for decompression of the spine. They also say you leave the class a quarter-inch to an inch and a half taller than when you started, however itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not permanent. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of core strength involved getting yourself in and out of poses. I always believe this type of incidental core work, as in many yoga balancing poses, is much more beneďŹ cial to overall core strength than endless sit ups. Although we did do sit ups suspended from the hammocks! The ancient yogis believed inversions reverse the ďŹ&#x201A;ow of energy in the body and lead to a longer life and enhanced youthfulness. Being upside down is a great antidote to the modern world. Not only do we decompress the spine, we are asking our muscles to

support us in an entirely different way. We allow our internal organs to refresh themselves. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit like a snowglobe, when we shake it, it settles back in a lighter way. Hanging from hammock So whether doing a simple Downward Facing Dog in a regular yoga class or hanging from a hammock, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always good to shake things up. And most of all itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun and exhilarating. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need any knowledge of yoga to do AntiGravity Yoga as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hybrid workout and adapted to using the hammock, although having a good level of ďŹ tness will make it easier. There were also ďŹ&#x201A;oor poses such as Warrior 3 but using the hammock as a balance. For something gentler, there are Restorative AntiGravity Yoga classes which work on slowly easing out the body. In this instance, the hammock is suspended only a few inches from the ďŹ&#x201A;oor.For details of AntiGravity classes you can contact Carlow Rehabilitation and Sports Injury Clinic in Graigecullen in Carlow. Carmel:087-6786796. Trish Hayden, YogaToGo, teaches Total Barre, Yoga and Sports Stretch Yoga in Kilkenny. She also teaches one to one yoga sessions for posture and Office Yoga.

By Ellen Roche A few weeks ago, I described in my nutrition column how red meat has been shown to cause allergies in some people in the USA due to a tick bite. Today, I would like to share some background on some of the more rare and fascinating food allergies which exist, some of which have presented to me for advice at the nutrition clinic. Pollen Cross reactions A patient once reported itching in her mouth and throat when she ate several fruits and vegetables, Raw fruits and vegetables caused much more discomfort than cooked, so she stopped eating the ones she thought were causing this reaction. Interestingly, individuals with an

allergy to birch tree pollen can have symptoms that mimic food allergies when they eat raw fruits and vegetables. The pollen is present in or on the skin of the fruits and vegetables. There is either cross-contaminated with birch tree pollen or the food may contain proteins that are similar in structure to birch tree pollen that can cause sensitive individuals to experience intense itching in the mouth and throat. In the case of the above patient, it is known as oral allergy syndrome (OAS) or pollen food syndrome. Cross-reactivity, between pollen and apples for example describes an event where antibodies are released by the immune system in response to a protein thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s similar to the protein responsible for the true pollen allergy. Proteins that are similar to one another can confuse the immune system, causing it to react to the wrong substance. Typically, symptoms are contained in the mouth and quickly resolve on their own once the individual stops eating the offending food. Severe reactions are possible, particularly if throat swelling is involved, since this can cause breathing difficulty. Those who believe they have OAS

should be evaluated by a medical doctor or consultant who specialised in allergies to out-rule a true food allergy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s common for many individuals who experience OAS to believe they are allergic to fruits and vegetables, but in many instances they should not have to avoid them. It is often possible to consume the particular fruit or veg if it is washed very well, remove the outer skin where possible and experiment with cooked vs raw foods. Spices Spices not only help make foods taste better but also add various health beneďŹ ts. However, for a small percentage of people, spices can cause dangerous allergic reactions if ingested. Spice allergy symptoms are similar to hay fever, but they can be much more severe. Coriander is in the family of spices that includes caraway, fennel, and celeryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;all of which have been implicated in allergic reactions in recent years, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not alone. Cinnamon, saffron, and mustard also have been noted for causing reactions. In Spain, an interesting study found that mustard appears to be related to cross-reactivity to birch tree pollen but also may be associated with mugwort and ragweed pollen allergy.

Eating out can be difficult for people with food allergies and the patience and carefulness of restaurant staff is well appreciated amongst those suffering from an allergy. Latex What does latex have to do with food allergies? As much as 50% of those with an allergy to natural rubber latex also will have cross-reactivity to certain foods, according to Dr Isabel Skypala, Dietitian in the UK. Individuals with latex allergy have an increased risk of developing food allergy reactions, most commonly to avocados, bananas and kiwis, but may also be sensitive to apples, carrots, celery, melons, papaya, potatoes and tomatoes. Many proteins are found in natural

rubber latex, so food proteins that are structurally similar to one or more of these proteins have the potential to cause cross-reactivity. People with sensitivity to these foods based on a latex allergy usually experience symptoms within minutes of ingestion. Reactions to natural rubber latex allergy can be life threatening; however, food allergy related to latex allergy usually is less severe. Testing Food allergy testing may be available through GP referral. Food intolerance testing i.e. IgG testing is not recommended by the Irish Food Allergy and Intolerance Network (a relatively new board established in Ireland by detitians and medical consultants who specialise in allergies). The European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology also advocate against IgG intolerance testing. Other non-validated testing methods include; cytotoxic food testing, kinesiology, Vega testing, electrodermal testing, pulse testing and hair analysis. These tests have not been scientiďŹ cally proven effective and may lead to unnecessary, costly and in some cases involve dangerous avoidance strategies.
