Kim Haskin Has been painting funny-looking animals since childhood, but didn't try doing it for a living until 2009 after a couple of successful exhibitions in the south east of England. Since then her paintings have been published (by Washington Green and Art Marketing) and sold as originals around the world.

She paints a range of animals, especially chickens, British birds, dogs and of course cats. Also enjoys painting still life pictures that feature jam (in particular half-eaten doughnuts and jam tarts).

Kim’s paintings are available as originals and prints, and welcomes discussions about commissions.

WHO’S NEXT?

Business Update October has been another busy month in Faringdon for businesses and there continues to be a noticeable rise in footfall reported by the town team.

We are still enjoying a very high occupation rate in our high street, with some businesses expanding and new ones starting up. There is activity at the Nut Tree and the old coffee shop next door and we look forward to these ventures opening their doors soon. We also now have a bike shop at the bottom of Coxwell Street.

Call Trish: 01367 820060 Cowleaze Farm, Woolstone, Oxon SN7 7QS Email: thedogstudio@live.co.uk The town team are doing a great job working with the Faringdon markets. The Saturday markets are still going from strength to strength and the apple themed market in October was the most successful yet.

As a result of a joint initiative between the Vale of White Horse District Council, Faringdon Town Council and the Chamber of Commerce, a new management board has been formed to co-ordinate the work of the Faringdon Town Team. The aim of the project is to promote a vibrant economy and continually enhance the retail offering within the town. Watch this space for news about the team’s plans for the future in this column next month.

“

” is one of our

major events. This year it takes place on Saturday, 28th November and there will be a fun packed program for the whole day with market stalls, carol singing and even local farm animals. Culminating with the switching on of the Christmas lights, we hope to see some snow and very much hope that Santa Claus himself will make an appearance. We are all looking forward to the festive lights around the town brightening up the dark evenings on the run up to Christmas.

The Chamber of Commerce hosted an event with Nigel Tipple, the Chief Executive of the Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership (OxLEP). This attracted people from all over the county as well as many local businesses and Town Mayor. Clearly our concerns about housing and local infrastructure are shared with our neighbours. But there was plenty of food for thought; OxLEP exist to fund and promote new initiatives such as pairing small businesses with mentors to stimulate their growth. The presentation and links are available on the Chamber web site www.faringdonchamberofcommerce.co.uk As well as grants available through OxLEP, the Vale of White Hourse District Council have announced that there is £1.5 million available through the Oxfordshire LEADER program.

Faringdon is in the qualifying area and eligible to apply for project funding for those that meet the criteria. Again, information is available on the Chamber or the Vale web site.

It’s a little while since I’ve been able to get away to Scotland visiting distilleries so I was very happy to seize the chance a few weeks ago to do just that. I based myself near Kirriemuir (birthplace of Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie) and amongst the distilleries I visited was a Highland gem called Glencadam.

Situated on the outskirts of the cathedral city of Brechin it has the most unusual location right next to a cemetery and, as David Wilson the distillery manager commented when he met me, this distillery gives the Angel’s Share (the term for the alcohol that evaporates from a cask) an added meaning!

Although there is no visitor centre at the distillery private tours are available and David very kindly gave up several hours to take me around this extremely neat and well presented distillery. Established in 1825 it was nearly lost to the mists of time when it was mothballed in 2000 but Angus Dundee distillers came to the rescue and bought it in 2003 and now Glencadam is very busy producing an excellent malt and also being used as a site for blending whisky.

At first glance it is fairly traditional in its layout and the hands on aspect was apparent when we came across the very jovial Kevin emptying out by hand the last remnants of the draff from the mash tun so that it could be cleaned. However, although appearing traditional the distillery has several quirks that are pretty unique. One is that the wash (fermented wort) is pre-heated externally in a heat exchanger before being forced through a diffuser into the wash still and this (along with a splash plate) results in maximum copper contact. Additionally, the restricted space in the still room means that the lye arms cannot be very long so they slope slightly upwards, which results in only the lighter spirit making it over the top into the condensers – which themselves have had to be situated outside because of lack of room. All of these factors contribute to the medium bodied, creamy, smooth and fruity style of this very enjoyable Highland malt.

Because this is not a ‘household’ name whisky, I always love the delighted look on the face of customers who try a sample for the first time, and although maturation of the spirit mainly takes place in bourbon casks there are also some expressions that have been finished in port or sherry casks. All of the whiskies are unchillfiltered, and whether it is the delicate, floral yet spicy 10 year old, the well balanced barley and port sweet, 12 year old Portwood finish, the elegant vanilla and sherry rich 14 year old Oloroso finish, or one of the other well made expressions, this is a Highland dram that is sure to please more than just the angels!

Jolly October Ramblings!

| The Advertiser | page 7 |

Welcome to another autumnal ramble.

Those blackberries are still ripening as I write to you, soon after the dragon-red moon. At least the Moon stayed circular and wasn’t rugby-ball shaped (no, not even after looking at it if celebrating The Win!). Such an amazing moon-shady night and luckily I was working from home that day. I hope that you could share it with me Briefly now, at the time of the distressing loss of life at Makkah, I chanced across a short piece in the Islamic theology available to Hajj pilgrims before travel, all about the Prophet Muhammad’s kindness to animals.

I would welcome other similar writings from you, dear Reader, regarding all the other religions that co-exist in our country.

One example given was by the Messenger of Allah, who said: “While a man was walking on a road he became very thirsty. He found a well, went into it and came out. Upon exiting he met a dog panting and eating soil out of thirst. The man said: “This dog has become stricken with the same degree of thirst which had stricken me.” So, he went down into the well and filled his shoe and climbed out again, holding the shoe in his mouth. He then gave the water to the dog to drink. Allah thanked him for his good deed. Abu Hurayrah fear Allah in your treatment of animals – verily there is heavenly reward for every act of kindness done to a living animal.

Kindness also relates to the tough decisions made regarding the choosing of euthanasia (a gentle death when translated from its origins). We always try to support owners with kindness when making such a difficult decision, if that decision is in the best interests for their pet. When we share a hug with distressed clients, even clients outwardly calm and internally brave and silently grieving, the client knows that they are not being judged for their tough choice, that their decision was fully discussed and accepted, that we partnered them in choosing their pet’s best option – and a new level of mutual respect is earned.

If it is for economic reasons, we try to help by offering to adopt and giving the client no further information once “signed over”. This is effectively the same as our own adoptions through Labrador Rescue Trust – at least one of ours was re homed twice already, before we got her, due to inconvenient life-long medical problems, which I’ve willingly met head-on, to give her a secure and fulfilled life.

Fortunately, we were able to extract her medical history from the two original practices.

So is the nurturing and willing acceptance of the human-pet bond - and not medical science – could be called the true essence of veterinary care. With that special, deep bond they have with an ailing pet, clients are communicating that this bond is breaking but also that they care and love their pet and should understand that we too care and love their pet enough to support them in their decisions.

Do you consider that your perception of your practice’s veterinary care would change, if practices put more animals up for adoption and people saw us as true animal advocates and partners, always providing non-judgemental, unconditional help for the patients that we have vowed to care for?

An Autumn extract from one of my late Godfather’s 50 published books will follow next month, Dr. Burton was a great zoologist of many years-standing who captured my imagination when I watched his Jackdaws, using lighted matches to remove parasitic flies when they groomed, years and years ago.

I hope that you’ve enjoyed our ramble together and that we get together again in December.

Comfort Food!

18 Market Place Faringdon SN7 7HP

01367 241114

New line now in stock

In recent weeks, I have had the pleasure of cooking for the Folly Dollies WI group in Faringdon and the Great Coxwell WI group in, well, Great Coxwell!

Both sessions were really great, lots of fun and hopefully delicious for everyone. We had two very different themes chosen for the demonstrations, both of which I loved cooking.

Herbs were on the menu for Great Coxwell and the 1970's for the Folly Dollies. The latter one made me feel rather old as I could remember the 70's rather well! With most of my time spent bugging my father in his service kitchen when he was trying to cook for customers! Tugging on his chefs Fine jewellery - Clocks and watches - Jewellery whites whilst preparing a steak au poivre or lobster Watch and Clock Repairs - Engraving - Valuations Thermidor.

So with this theme in mind, I thought we'd linger Secondhand jewellery bought and sold a while and cook something rather retro. www.deacons-jewellers.com shop@deacons-jewellers.com I don't particularly remember there being any thought Shops LATE NIGHT OPENING‌ Thursday 3rd December passed for seasonal eating then, but now we are so very aware and I really think food tastes better when using food which is available now.

Comfort food is so very important, this dish really has all of the above.

Baked mushroom and ham fondue. Remember?

Take either 4 rolls or a white cob of some sort.

Cut off the top, about 2 cm slice, I expect would be good.

Scoop out the soft insides, trying to make sure not to make any holes in the crust.

Set the bread aside and prepare the filling.

Heat a pan with around 50g butter until melted and then add 50g plain flour, stir to make a roux and cook that for a few minutes until it is sizzling, pour in, whilst whisking furiously, 50ml white wine, 100ml stock and then 200ml cream, be it single or double, keep whisking and also make sure to go around the edge of the pan with the wooden spoon to collect any roux that may be caught.

Season with lots of black pepper and a little salt. Make sure to bubble the sauce for a few minutes to really cook out the floury taste.

Add in 200g shredded ham, 150g sliced mushrooms and 1 tbsp grainy mustard.

Spoon the mixture in to the hollowed out bread. Place on to a baking tray and slide in to a preheated oven and bake until crunchy and bubbling.

25 minutes for the rolls, 35 for the large loaf.

Serve with a glass of cold cider.

We offer government funded Nursery places to some 2 year olds, as well as 3 and 4 year olds

Get a new morning routine and rock your world at the women’s health café.

This is a friendly, informal group for women to talk about health. We all know that prevention is better than cure. This group is about just that, finding ways, sharing tips and learning strategies to stay healthy. The first topic will be about morning routine and how making some small changes can help you have more energy, focus and direction with your health and your world.

This group is for you if: Ÿ You are a women. Ÿ You want to be healthier. Ÿ You know you need to be kinder to yourself. Ÿ You want to learn strategies to feel vibrant. Ÿ You like chatting, drinking tea and eating cake with other women. Ÿ You want to find community and a sense of belonging. Ÿ You’ve ever wondered why warm lemon water is so good for you. Ÿ You’re not sure what a ‘normal’ period is supposed to be like. Ÿ You want a different option to yo-yo dieting. Ÿ You are craving for more support, love and warmth to help you be a better version of yourself.

I want to share something with you. I am setting up this group, partly out of altruism and partly selfishness. I want to give back to the community by delivering some great free content, expertise, tea and cake. The selfish reason is because I am craving a tribe: a tribe of women that connect and support each other on health issues.

I am perfectly placed to facilitate this group because I have been studying and working as a health therapist for almost a decade. I have focused postgraduate studies on women’s health and over the years have helped hundreds of women with pain, fertility, pregnancy, menopause, stress, anxiety, sleep and weight loss. I use a combination of techniques to help women reach their goals, from acupuncture, nutrition, massage, coaching, exercise and mindfulness.

I want to facilitate women being well and healthy. Prevention is the medicine of the millennium.

The first gathering will be Wednesday November 4th at 7.30pm.

And then monthly get-together's will be held on the first Wednesday of every month from 7.30 - 8.30pm.

At The Rookery, 35 Marlborough Street, Faringdon SN7 7JL. Call Rachel to book a free space: 07917 411552.

Healthy Tips!

Is the food we eat as nutritious as it used to be?

Could the fresh food we are eating today have fewer vitamins and minerals than it used to, and does it really matter?

Research done in 1997 and subsequent re-analysis in 2005 compared fruit and vegetables in the UK from the 1930s and 1980s to more recent times. In some cases there was a sharp fall in the amount of calcium, iron, copper, magnesium and potassium and other nutrients. The pressure to grow fruit and vegetables more rapidly means the crops do not absorb enough nutrients from the ground before they are harvested.

Although accurate comparisons may be difficult to obtain, surely it is important that what we eat today is of a high nutritional standard?

There have been improvements over the years. Carrots these days contain more vitamin A than 50 years ago, as we prefer orange varieties, which have more of the pigment betacarotene. Fluorescent lighting in supermarkets gives spinach higher levels of vitamins C, E, K and folic acid!

Does cost affect quality? You could argue that if the cost of mass production leads the produce being cheaper in the shops we are able to afford to eat more of it therefore balancing any nutritional deficiencies. But do we?

Fresh food can be highly nutritious at source but once it has travelled half way around the globe some of the benefits have gone, as the nutrients will have declined over time.

Modern chilling and packaging methods have improved the quality of some of the foods we eat and have made a larger variety of food available all year round – so maybe there has to be a trade off. Don’t discount frozen foods either, for example, frozen peas lose very little of their nutrients as they are frozen within two hours of picking and, once frozen, their nutritional value does not decline over time in the same way as fresh veg.

Leaving fruit and vegetables to grow for longer until they are fully ripe means they contain more nutrients, however a lot of food we buy is picked before it is fully ripe so it can be packed and transported more easily without being damaged or bruised.

From a nutritional point of view is it better to have a nonorganic vegetable from the local farmers market than an organic one from the other side of the world that has potentially lost some of its nutritional qualities?

When we cook our food we lose nutrients too – over-cooking can destroy their quality. But then our ability to digest the food is another important factor to consider!

I am sure there are valid points for both sides of the argument, I personally feel that buying your fruit and veg from a local, quality source and eating vegetables that are in season in this country is the best way forward – or grow your own!

The most important thing is to eat ‘real’ food, a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, and quality meat and fish (or quality meat alternatives if you are vegetarian) NOT processed foods that may be low in nutrients and high in additives, sugar and salt.

Of course you could always look to boost your nutrition with vitamin, mineral and fibre supplements. Once again quality is important. I always research supplements to determine their quality and safety and choose the best one that doesn’t break the bank! Remember that whilst a multivitamin is a good backup to proper nutrition, it is far less important for health than choosing healthy foods and having a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and healthy oils.

I will leave you to make you own minds up as to the way forward but at least you might now think about how you could improve your health and well-being through better nutrition.

Parkrun!

01793 297668

HIGHWORTH TRAVEL INDEPENDENT LUXURY TRAVEL SPECIALIST

ur w Your world, Yo

ay

It is 9am on a Saturday morning, you are in a local park. A flash mob of lycra wrapped people have congregated to receive their weekly fix of 5 kilometre action. They come in all shapes and sizes; young, old, fast, slow, big and small.

Some come with sons and daughter, some come to race, others come to chat, there are buggies and dogs. Welcome to the cult of the “parkrun”.

The concept is wonderfully simple – a timed 5k romp through a park every week; the same place, the same time, 52 weeks every year– and it is free. All you need to take part is a barcode. Yes, a barcode. You generate this when you register for the first time on the parkrun website www.parkrun.co.uk This produces a unique identifier for you which you need each time you finish. You come, you run, you’re done. The results will be posted by the time you get home. Genius!

There are over 200 parkruns nationwide and there are new ones starting up all the time. There are plenty of local ones, five are within half an hours’ drive. By far the biggest, takes two laps round Lydiard Park – nearly 500 turn out for this one each week! If you prefer a river view, then head to Abingdon. There is a choice of two in Oxford – the parkrun at Harcourt Hill is closest as the crow flies and there is another at Cutteslowe Park. The most recent addition is to be found at Didcot.

The great thing about parkruns is, they are what you want them to be – fiercely competitive at the sharp end, purely social towards the back. A sizeable proportion of the participants are under 18 – spurred on by the promise of a free parkrun T-shirt when they reach the milestone of 10 runs (grown-ups must wait until their fiftieth for theirs!)

First timers and “tourists” are made to feel very welcome and everyone is invited to go for a coffee afterwards at a local café. What’s not to like?! Want to find out more go to www.parkrun.co.uk?

High Street, Highworth, Wiltshire Telephone: 01793 763181 office@highworthtravel.co.uk www.highworthtravel.co.uk

If you are new to running and want to do the parkrun, the Far Runners are currently offering a beginners course every Saturday morning focused on working up to jogging 5K in eight weeks. The plan involves three runs per week, with a day of rest in between and a different schedule for each week gradually building up your fitness and stamina.

For more information contact contactjamesgreenaway@gmail.com all sessions are free! Otherwise, the Far Runners depart from Faringdon town centre on Tuesday at 6.30pm, Thursday at 7pm and the Leisure Centre on Sunday at 9.30am.

Wine tasting utilises our sensory skills, primarily that of smell, which is then closely followed by taste. The visual aspect of wine tasting is somewhat secondary but obvious and taken for granted - well why shouldn't it be? No skill, it seems is necessary when wine is either white, pink or red - or is it?

Consider this; is white wine really white? No. It's varying shades of yellow. But you'd feel like a right plonker asking your dinner guests if they'd fancy a glass of yellow wine.

Quite off putting, really.

A big high five for etiquette, which it seems, has renamed yellow wine to white. Or perhaps it's the nature of the white wine grape, which is referred to a white grape when in actual fact, it's green.… and so it goes on!

But what of our visual perceptions? What does colour say to us about what we are about to taste? White wines that are golden in colour can indicate sweetness such as the great wines of Sauternes or oxidation such as sherry's flavour profile or even oak maturation or both. At the other end of the spectrum, opaque red wines evoke the perception of rich, full flavours of dark berry fruits followed by varying degrees of tannin.

Colour certainly sways market demand for rosé wines, where paler pink shades outsell those that are a deeper pink or leaning towards orange in the colour spectrum.

So, it appears that the only way to remain totally impartial to the wine is to taste it without seeing its colour at all. One could experiment by wearing a blindfold (without sounding too '50 Shades of Grey') or equipping oneself with black glasses, commonly used in wine competitions.

Jan Konetzki, winner of the UK Sommelier Of The Year 2012, claims that it's tricky because you lose a reliable sense, but at the same time you strengthen your smell and taste.'

Something to try at home!
