hange and growth often go hand in hand. Take us for example. You’re looking at the lovechild of West Magazine and the esteemed Westcountry Life. We’ve taken the very best of our Western Morning News lifestyle offerings and merged them into a 60-page celebration of all things South West.

There’s a lot to be said for taking a different approach. Ask Jason Barber, inventor of Black Cow Vodka. Jason is a descendant of the Barber dairy farming family, who have the oldest recipe for cheddar in the world. Jason’s idea to use leftover whey to produce his vodka has resulted in a spirit so good

INTERVIEW

BECKY SHEAVES TALKS TO JASON BARBER - THE INVENTOR OF A VODKA MADE FROM PURE WHOLE MILK - ABOUT HOW THE HIPPEST BARS ON THE PLANET ARE PUTTING THE WESTCOUNTRY SPIRIT INTO THE MIX PHOTOGRAPHY: MATT AUSTIN

Holy cow...

I

’m still a struggling dairy farmer,” says Jason Barber, the man who invented vodka made from pure whole milk. “But I’m definitely one with a smile on my face.”

Jason farms 280 grass-fed Holstein cross dairy cows in west Dorset, and has found a novel way to add value to the milk they produce.

“I produced my first bottle of pure milk vodka in 2012,” he explains.

“Since then, it has really taken off.

I’ve calculated that I have produced 245,000 bottles of vodka. Full size, not miniatures.”

It’s fair to say that Jason’s Black Cow vodka has been something of a hit. It’s made from the leftover whey after cheese is made from his milk – Jason is a descendent of the Barber dairy farming family, who have the oldest recipe for cheddar in the world, dating all the way back to 1833.

Once the cheese has been made, the whey is turned into first a beer, then distilled and triple filtered to create a vodka that, say the experts, is exceptionally clear and creamy-tasting.

ly and their children Johnny, seven and Oscar, five, on their family farm at Seaborough Manor, recently invited cocktail experts from all over the world to submit their ideas for using Black Cow vodka in cocktail recipes.

“The response was amazing,” says Jason.

“Our finalists came from as far afield as Singapore, California and Hong Kong, as well as all over the UK. “We hosted the finalists for a three day stay with us, during which they enjoyed boat trips and picnics. We then then held the competition itself in our distillery at Childhay Manor near Beaminster.

It was very hard fought – the top three or four were all outstandingly

It’s also the only vodka of its kind in the world. “People love it because it’s so pure, with no harsh kick. Vodka is usually made from potatoes or wheat, mixed with mineral water which can give it a flinty taste. Ours doesn’t have that,” says Jason.

It takes 20 litres of milk to produce one litre of vodka, but along the way that same milk also produces cheddar cheese and butter. And with Black Cow vodka being stocked by the likes of Marks & Spencer, Fortnum & Mason and Sainsbury’s, it is no wonder Jason is smiling.

“For a dairy farmer like me, getting out and about visiting bars and meeting cocktail makers is great fun and totally unexpected,” he says.

His business partners Paul Archard (known as Archie) and Archie’s wife Helen have brought new skills to the business, including an eye for design and branding that is rapidly making Black Cow vodka a real must for ontrend hipsters nationally and overseas, too.

good.”

In the end, the winner of the Gold Top Cup was Erica Brown of Bar Stella in Silver Lake, Los Angeles. Erica came up with the Beautiful Bovine cocktail, which combines Black Cow vodka with fresh basil, tomato water and rock salt, served over a tomato water ice pearl and with a side of the Black Cow cheddar cheese that Jason also makes from his milk.

Erica says: “In the 1970s my great aunt and uncle built a house in Tacoma, Washington. It became a hub where our whole family would meet and celebrate. My great aunt Jo and my mother spent hours in the bricklined kitchen hand-making pasta and drinking martinis. This is my most visceral memory of family.

“My mother owns the house now and just remodelled the kitchen, keeping the brick as an homage to aunt Jo. This drink is an homage to the great bond these two women had and the memories they created in that house.”

The Gold Top Cup judges commented: “Erica started her presentation in a self-deprecating manner, concerned that her drink was too simple. But what she did was bring together seemingly basic ingredients in a manner that was much more than the sum of its parts. A perfectly balanced, complex, savoury martini was the result. Her drink told her taste moment wonderfully and further we felt her recipe and execution truly championed Black Cow and its own ethos.”

With cocktails in mind, here are some summery vodka recipes that we are sure you won’t be able to resist trying.

VOICES

All in a day’s work BECKY SHEAVES MAKES HAY (AFTER FEEDING SOME TO THE PONY)

H

ello, good morning and – if you’re Cornish like me – reet.

Here I am in my new home, the revamped Saturday West magazine. And very nice it is too – do you like my picture? All very clever, especially when you realise that no, I didn’t actually pose for a watercolour portrait. It’s done with a photograph and the help of a very smart computer. The result is, may I hasten to assure you, extremely flattering.

As I write now, I look nothing like that. I am covered in hay and with a bird’s nest for hair, looking all my age (50) and more, sitting at our kitchen table at 7.22am, in attempt to please my new editor by getting this column in not only on time, but early. Which is unheard of, for me. Like a lot of journalists, I am a dreadful deadline surfer and can really only ever get anything done if there is a metaphorical gun to my head. Then, and only then, do I knuckle down and get on with it.

To this end, I have already faffed around this morning far more than I

the Western Morning News for the past few years on the theme of (to the paper’s top man) “love, life and everything”. Today, however, my column has a new home and here I am in the updated pages of West magazine on a Saturday.

If you’re a regular reader of Saturday’s paper, you may know me instead as the editor of West – but I’ve changed jobs. Yes, we’ve had a good old swap around here just recently. For my main job, I’m now working at DevonLive, our online news and features site, while my dear friend Kathryn Clarke-Mcleod takes on West magazine as the new editor. She’s been its designer for the past three years and I think you’ll agree she’s done a fabulous job of the redesign. It’s a chance for both of us to try something differ-

should have. Despite the early hour, I have already put tick treatment on the cat, emptied the tumble dryer and refilled it. Yes I know it’s summer and I should put things on the line. But I am convinced that, if you avoid using an iron by whisking freshly-tumbled garments straight out of the dryer and onto hangers, you are using as little or less electricity overall. Please don’t tell me I’m wrong. I really don’t want to know.

I’ve also procrastinated by popping out into our farmyard to give our little old Dartmoor pony Ebony some hay. She is in her stable, slimming, but gets very grumpy of a morning on an empty stomach – as would I if I was on a permanent diet like she is.

Then, because I had hay all over me anyway, I thought I may as well give some to Honey the goat. And let the chickens out of their house. And have a quick scroll through Facebook. And so it goes on.

But anyway, you may be wondering: Who is this woman? Well, I have been writing a column on Fridays in

ent – wish us luck.

So anyway, in case you’re wondering, here’s my life story in a nutshell: I grew up in small village in Cornwall, school in Truro, went away to uni, faffed around a fair amount (a lifelong trait of mine, alas), did a stint as a school teacher in Bodmin, then worked in London where I did (unexpectedly) well as journalist but got fed up with city life. I’m now living in Devon, married to a farmer/ foodie called John, with four grown-up stepchildren, two sons in their teens, two horses, five pigs, six chickens, a collie, a cat, a flock of sheep and the aforementioned goat. Every week I will try to find something interesting amid all this to write about for your entertainment – let me know what you think:

EBONY IS IN HER STABLE, SLIMMING, BUT GETS VERY GRUMPY OF A MORNING ON AN EMPTY STOMACH – AS WOULD I IF I WAS ON A PERMANENT DIET

C A N YO U KICK IT?

SNAP UP ONE OF THE SEASON’S KEY LOOKS FOR FEET.

S

tuck in a wardrobe rut? Take the shortcut to trend town with a pair (or three) of the season’s chicest kicks. From comfy flats for daytime to statement-making high heels, these are the shoes to choose this summer...

1. FRILLED SANDALS Frilly, but not too fussy – that’s the sandal mantra right now. So think stilettos in punchy hues or metallics, paired with toughgirl ripped jeans and the latest Nineties revival, the “going out top”.

Extra points if you can work a bit of tulle or velvet into the mix.

1. New Look Silver Frill Strap Heeled Sandals, £14 (reduced from £29.99) 2. V by Very Gisele Asymmetric Frill Heeled Pink Sandals, £32, Very. co.uk

3. FAIRYTALE HEELS

4. SPORTY SANDALS

Minimalist mules, move over – right now it’s all about ornate princess shoes with opulent detailing. Basically, if they look like they could have fallen off Cinderella’s foot at midnight, you’re on the right track. You’d needn’t reserve these beauts for balls, however. Wear metallic mules with a pleated midi skirt and cropped tee for daytime princess vibes.

5. Dune Delights Champagne Mules, £95 6. Hobbs Ophelia Gold Mules, £65 (reduced from £149)

Like the pool sliders trend but want a bit of lift? Then these chunky sandals are for you. Cool and comfy but not so massive that they veer into Spice Girls territory, they’ll become your holiday staples.

7. La Redoute Mademoiselle R Nude Platform Sandals, £23.40 (reduced from £39) 8. Dune Kassius Silver Sandals, £80

2

5. BACK DETAILING While mules may be having a moment, elsewhere embellishment is focused firmly on the backs of shoes, with frills and florals making a strong case for court shoes and strappy sandals.

Liven up a much-loved LBD with a pair of these statement stilettos.

9. Topshop Rosebud Applique Stiletto Sandals, £46 10. Office Hibiscus Silver Sandals with Cherries, £60

1

2. NEXT-LEVEL TRAINERS The humble white trainer gets a makeover this summer with floral prints, embroidery and all kinds of embellishment turning this daywear staple from boring to bling. A pair of pimped-up kicks updates a simple jeans and bardot top combo, or punctuates an allblack-everything ensemble.

Style Q&A with Tamsin

Our Falmouth style guru can help you fulfil your fashion potential in every possible way. All you have to do is ask...

Do I really need to use a toner as part of my everyday skincare regime?

KM, Truro Toners are an extremely important part of any skincare routine, but the key is to choose one based on your skin’s specific needs. Joanna Vargas, celebrity facialist and founder of Joanna Vargas Salon and Skincare Collection has this advice: “Rose is hydrating, very light, and good for circulation. Lime is a great ingredient for oily skin because it tightens pores and acts as an astringent without over-drying the skin’s surface, while chamomile is great for soothing.”

Toners also have the following beauty superpowers: 1. They help prevent breakouts: Toners containing alcohol remove excess oil from the skin and can actually help prevent breakouts for those with acne-prone skin.

2. They are hydrating: Toners with glycerine and hyaluronic acid can help hydrate the skin and prevent dryness.

3.They help get rid of any remaining makeup: Toners were originally developed as an extra cleansing step to remove dirt and impurities from makeup and environmental pollution.

4. They tighten pores: Toners clean and tighten pores, which not only makes the skin visibly smoother, but also makes it harder Vichy Purete for dirt and Thermale soothing bacteria to toner - £12 Boots penetrate it.

Their mission is to be a way for the Peruvian artisan community to share the vibrancy of their culture. Each piece is unique and made completely by hand.

E

very week there seems to be a new beauty buzzword, a magic product – they claim – you won’t believe you ever lived without!

Obviously, there’s a lot of hyperbole around new launches, but it’s true that just a single new ingredient can sometimes, actually, make all the difference, particularly if you’re looking to target a specific concern.

Recently, the cosmetic labs have been working overtime and there’s a host of hot new extracts and inventions just waiting to work wonders on your skin and hair.

From the natural to the high-tech, these are the problem-solving ingredients you need to add to your beauty line-up...

1. LUTEIN Did you know, not only does the blue light from smartphones stop us from drifting off to sleep at night, it also causes fine lines and pigmentation? Lutein, an antioxidant derived from marigolds and which acts as a shield against blue light, is one of the ingredients found in Murad City Skin Broad Spectrum SPF 50, £45 (1), which also protects against UVA and B, infrared and pollution.

2. MAQUI BERRY Move over goji, there’s a new wonder-berry in town. Maqui berry oil, which is found in Trilogy Very Gentle Restoring Oil, £32.50, Debenhams (2), is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, helping to target skin irritation-causing free radicals.

3. LECITHIN Obsessed with finding a truly infallible foundation? BareMinerals BarePro Performance Wear Liquid Foundation, £29 (3), available September, contains mineral pigments coated with lecithin, a type of lipid naturally found in the human body, which means the formula binds seamlessly with your skin and won’t budge for 24 hours.

4. HIBISCUS Not only does Rahua Enchanted Island Salt Spray, £32, Net-APorter (4), give you effortless surfer-girl waves, hibiscus extract strengthens the hair’s core, giving extra oomph and shine.

5. LAMELLAR TECHNOLOGY

7. WHITE GINSENG

9. TURMERONE

Using the same principle as all-day sunscreen, lamellar structure technology keeps active ingredients suspended in layers, so they’re gradually released over a 10-hour period, rather than in one dose when you first put the product on. SkinSense by Abi Cleeve Highly Active Day Cream, £34 (5), also contains Linefill, a sesamederived skin-plumper.

Inspired by Korean “lotions” (liquid, rather than cream, moisturisers), Erborian Spray to Mask Revitalizing Face Mask, £34 (7), available September, is a gel enriched with hydrating white ginseng. Simpler than a sheet mask, you spritz it on and allow it to sink in, blotting any excess off after 10 minutes.

The benefits of turmeric are wellknown (so keep on quaffing those yellow lattes), but if you really want to deliver a high concentration of the super-spice, try Clarins Double Serum, £56 (9), available August 27. The new reformulation delivers turmeric extract via turmerone molecules, thereby enhancing five vital skin functions at cellular level, meaning reduced wrinkles and increased hydration.

8. OLYMPUS TEA Hailing from the famous mountain, Olympus Tea is known for its powerful anti-microbial and antioxidant properties, which is why it’s the basis for two new cleansers from Korres.

Choose from the Olympus Tea 3 in 1 Cleansing Emulsion, £15, or Foaming Cream, £18, Marks and Spencer (8).

6. MARSHMALLOW No, sadly, munching on those squashy sweet treats won’t give you perfect skin (sorry about that).

We’re talking about powder from the root of the mallow plant, which selectively absorbs sebum, but not water, making it the star ingredient of Murad MattEffect Blotting Perfector, £32 (6).

10. DRAGON FRUIT Want luscious lips without having to endure the stinging sensation of a chilli-based plumper? Liz Earle Superskin Superlip Balm, £16 (10), contains Peruvian dragon fruit extract, derived from the resin of the dragon’s blood tree, which helps soften and plump your pout without any pain.

house flowers MAKE ROOMS LOOK BLOOMING LOVELY WITH FLORAL DESIGNS GUARANTEED TO GROW ON YOU

F

DRAMATIC BLOOMS

lorals never fade or go out of fashion, thanks to our enduring passion for reflecting nature and the great outdoors in our homes – and right now, they’re in full bloom everywhere.

But just as you wouldn’t have a wilting bouquet of flowers in your home, any floral look you introduce should be fresh and bang up to date, too.

Luckily, today’s designers are making sure their interpretations are a world away from the old-hat chintz and fussy “grandma” looks of yesteryear.

They’ve embraced petal power with bright, bold, new designs, aided by up-to-the-minute digital techniques.

So pick one of these looks – no water needed, and they’re guaranteed never to wither...

THE NEW PRETTY Think pastel pinks and wallpapers featuring petals and pretty blooms, for a fresh, feminine spin on florals...

Rebecca Snowden, interior style advisor at Furniture Choice (www. furniturechoice.co.uk), says: “When people talk about florals, it tends to be centred around spring and summer fashion and interiors, with powdery pastel pinks a hot favourite both for the catwalk and the home this year.

“Unusually, the trend will carry through late into winter and those pastel hues will move into deeper, darker reds and pinks. Plum and deep magenta against a smoky black background will conjure a dramatic, gothic effect.”

Woodchip & Magnolia has a stunning Eunoia Watercolour Floral Wallpaper, £99 a roll (woodchipandmagnolia.co.uk).

Striking, pared-back, natureinspired designs and bold colourways are perfect for a nofuss or frills approach to this look.

“Giant florals have been the stars of the catwalk shows, and now, from wardrobe to walls, we’re reviving floral patterns and embracing large-scale designs in bright, vibrant colours for a statement look,” says Paula Taylor, colour and trends specialist at Graham & Brown (www.grahambrown. com/uk). “Expressive, elaborate blooms are making their way onto our walls, furniture and homeware to create dramatic, coloured backdrops for the home. People are becoming much braver in their choice of design and colours and after decades of plain magnolia walls, Brits are falling back in love with these patterns. It’s time to be colour-confident again and express personality through dynamic palettes and opulent patterns.”

Decor Tip: Hot house botanical prints are packing an interiors punch this year, featuring vibrant Caribbean colours on dark backgrounds.

Turn up the heat with English Blinds’ Menton Tropical Roman Blind, from £53.95.

Midnight Peony Cushion, £79, available from Reflect and Repeat Decor Tip: Plants and flowers will always stand out against a dark backdrop of deep grey or black. Test your taste by painting an alcove or the inside of a dresser in a dark hue and then arrange bright flower displays in front of the backdrop, so the colour really pops.

Decor Tip: Wallpapering stair risers with floral papers is an inventive way to conjure a country-cottage look. Strip a staircase of carpet, sand and paint with floor paint, then use wallpaper off-cuts or a paper of your choice for each stair. Attach using wallpaper paste or a strong glue

Pink Rosa Velvet Pouffe, 180, available from Ragged Rose

CLASSIC COUNTRY Botanical illustrations that could have come straight from the pages of a traditional nature study book, combine with natural textures and a neutral colour palette for an update on that perennial favourite – classic country.

“If, like me, you love reflecting the subtle tones that you find in the garden, a palette of lavender, sage, rose and heather is a perfect place to start,” advises Claire Hornby, creative stylist, Barker & Stonehouse (www. barkerandstonehouse.co.uk).

“These can be incorporated into your scheme through soft furnishings, or smaller upholstered pieces featuring designs reminiscent of natural history drawings, which will inject character into your living space.

“If an abundance of flowers, plants and all things natural appeals to your sense of style, then don’t be afraid to use a large variety of plants and blooms in one room, to help achieve a fresh feel. These can be potted plants, vases of flowers, or even indoor trees. Intersperse greenery with country-themed decorative objects.”

GARDENING

Tim Foster WHY USE A SCYTHE? TO SORT THOSE SLUGS OUT, OF COURSE

I

’ve just bought a scythe. Not, perhaps, this week’s most exciting news but it is to me. It is not an expensive prop (literally) as I lean on the shaft (technically, the snath), imagining myself as Poldark in a Cornish field, pausing between philanderings.

In reality, I’m not kidding myself that the sight of a topless, pasty stick-man, sweating like a dray horse, being buzzed by a cloud of flies, is going to elicit reactions much better than a stifled guffaw. In fact, the fewer people that see me trying to use the thing, the better – it would only be embarrassing as I either dig the point of the blade into the ground sending a shock wave up my body that culminates in neck whiplash or I remove a foot.

It has been purchased to cut the grass in a distant meadow where the smell, pollution and noise of a petrol strimmer would be deeply offensive. The effort involved with using a scythe is easily offset by the accompaniment of bird song. Is it as quick though?

Apparently, at the annual scythe fair down in Somerset, the scythe beats the strimmer most times – it’s all about rhythm. I don’t think I’ve got much rhythm, certainly not with music. Put me in front of a drum and you’ll get a sound akin to rolling a tin of Celebrations down the stairs. With the scythe, I’m hoping I can learn it.

I would use it on the allotment if a) the paths were level, b) I could swing it without taking out half a row of spuds at the same time and c) I wouldn’t look like a pillock. Actually, I don’t need to use a scythe to achieve that last one.

The desire to cut the grass paths is primarily to reduce slug homes. It also looks jolly neat. The desire to cut the grass paths without a strimmer is mainly down to the reasons given above (combined with cost). I was driven from our site two years ago when four petrol machines opened up on plots around me, competing in the All-England Strimming and Noise Pollution Championships.

The alternatives include mowers (manual), slashers, shears and long-handled shears. Bowling green paths, once achieved, are comfort-

Scythes can be ideal for cutting meadow grass

with the box on) in that the cuttings can be collected: a very useful compost ingredient.

A more recent alternative has emerged, one that I can recommend, if only to prove I’m not such a Luddite after all. It’s also one I won’t be using, mainly because I’m too mean to spend more money after splashing the cash on the scythe. It is the battery-powered strimmer. OK, so by recharging at home it is still needing generated (coal, gas, nuclear, renewable) power but the new generation of batteries enable a more efficient (and longer) usage. For allotmenteers with little time or inclination to use the other methods, it is extremely helpful.

As I fumble around aimlessly on my nearby plot, I welcome the gentle buzz of the motor and the swish of the cord when a neighbour uses one, especially if they cut my bit of the path at the same time. Generous plotholders cut the whole regulation 45cm

ably maintained with a push mower but such paths are rare. Slashers are a bit random in their cutting, even more so than a scythe, with a small sharp blade on the end of a stick flailing to and fro like a frustrated golfer’s niblick.

Good shears give a good cut but you have to bend over. A neighbour regaled me (three times) with the tale of his shearing effort – he’d lasted just ten minutes before he was completely done in. I refrained from suggesting that he either got a new pair of shears or got down the gym. As with any gardening task requiring effort (digging, weeding etc) it is best approached in bursts – do a bit, do something else, do a bit more, and so on.

Long-handled shears give an OK cut but are curiously cumbersome to use. Shears of any kind have a major advantage over all of the others (unless you are able to operate a mower

width – being a miserable git, I only do to the midway point, or grudgingly two-thirds, mainly because of the effort/time involved using shears.

I then spend the next week or two grumbling under my breath that “them next door” haven’t cut their bit of the path and just think about all those slugs holed up in that long grass, waiting until dark to advance like a line of infantry towards my quaking carrots.

I’ve just bought a scythe. But in the time it takes me to assemble it, adjust it, set it, sharpen it and learn how to use it, the meadow will have developed into woodland.

advice: dealing with greenhouse pests 1 A s crops swell and flowers bloom, our greenhouses are filling up with gorgeous plants. The only trouble is, destructive pests are also intent on moving in, uninvited...

1 RED SPIDER MITE These are found on the underside of leaves where a fine web develops.

They attack the foliage, causing a mottled appearance and, in severe cases, death of the plant.

They attack a wide range of greenhouse plants, including peaches, cucumbers and tomatoes, and many ornamentals, including fuchsias and pelargoniums. To suppress red spider mite, damp the glasshouse down regularly during summer to raise humidity. Also, try to avoid growing susceptible plants.

2 THRIPS Also known as thunder flies, these tiny sap-sucking insects eat young plant tissue, including flower petals, causing mottling.

Leaves can become dull and turn silvery-white and heavy attacks may stop flower buds from opening.

Adults are yellowish brown or black with long, narrow bodies, but are often hard to detect unless you shake the plant over a piece of paper.

Sticky traps can help control them.

3 WHITEFLY These are tiny, pure-white insects which reproduce quickly, laying white eggs on the undersides of leaves.

They suck sap from the leaf undersides of tomato, cucumber and many ornamental plants, which can result in stunted growth. They also excrete a sugary substance called honeydew which makes the foliage sticky. They love warm conditions and fly up from plants when disturbed.

Keep whitefly numbers down by suspending yellow adhesive strips above the plants. The insects are attracted to the colour and become attached.

4 MEALYBUG The white, sap-sucking pests leave sticky deposits where they feed. Cacti and succulents are among the vulnerable plants, and the insects, which are active all year round, can infest pretty inaccessible places.

Females don’t fly or crawl far so are often brought in on an infested plant.

las are particularly susceptible. The grubs are creamy white, up to 10mm long and feast on plant roots and tubers.

Vine weevil are hard to detect, but keep a lookout for the adults, which are grey beetles, about nine millimetres long, and have a distinctive snout. They feed at night, nibbling notches around the edges of leaves.

Check your plants carefully before putting them in the greenhouse. The ladybird Cryptolaemus montrouzieri, available from specialists, can be released into greenhouses to control them.

5 VINE WEEVIL Often, you don’t spot vine weevil until it’s too late, by which time the soilborne larvae will have devoured the roots of your plants.

 Replace strawberry beds that are more than three years old once the crop has been harvested, as output will go into decline.  Take cuttings of rock plants such as aubrieta (pictured above), alyssum, phlox, thyme and dianthus.  Start to think about your bulb requirements for spring bedding, with a view to ordering early.  Save a few new potatoes to plant for a fresh crop at Christmas. Expose them to light for a few days until they turn green, then plant in a container so protection can be given when the weather turns cold.  Pinch out any weak shoots of large-flowered dahlias.  Feed trees and shrubs that are performing badly with a high nitrogen liquid fertiliser.  Cut culinary herbs and dry or freeze to use later in the year.  Feed tomato plants regularly (pictured below).  Make sure leafy veg such as lettuces and spinach, as well as fruiting crops such as tomatoes and marrows, have sufficient water.  Top up garden pools to replace water through lost evaporation.

ALLOTMENTS

David Lifton GOURDS WILL GIVE YOU PLENTY OF OPTIONS FOR YOUR MEALS

I

f you really want to begin your journey to self-sufficiency, there are several main crops that will give you that fantastic starting point.

In my journey so far, I have spent most of my time working out what grows best and, more importantly, what will fill my cupboards and my dinner plate for months on end.

I’ve spent a lot of my allotment time focusing on squash plants. Pumpkins, courgettes and other gourds provide your larder with tonnes of food. Not only this, but the squash family is so versatile, making excellent additions to pastas, pies and more. One courgette plant, if given the space and the food to grow strong will give you up to 30 fruits in one season. Grate, slice and freeze the fruits as they crop and you’ve taken your first step to providing for yourself.

However, if you don’t have a big freezer like me, allocate your space to pumpkins and other hard-skinned squash instead. I once had a pumpkin from my first allotment which kept unspoilt for nearly six months – a testament to the longevity of the fruit.

By growing just one pumpkin plant, you could expect to harvest a couple of gourds – enough to keep you going for a month.

This is exactly what I intended to do at the start of the year. The reason my other crops are a little bare this year is because I’m putting all my eggs into one basket. I’m betting on a dominating pumpkin plant, a promising Blue Banana heritage squash plant and two eager Canada Crookneck squash plants.

Every week I feed my plants with a comfrey herb tea. The bases of the plants are also covered in the leaves of harvested rhubarb stalks, which are bursting with nutrients ready for the hungry squash roots.

If I succeed this year, I will have made my first proper steps on the road to living off the land.

ONE COURGETTE PLANT WILL GIVE YOU UP TO 30 FRUITS

Grow courgettes and turn them in to spaghetti

COURGETTE SPAGHETTI WITH LEEK & STILTON SAUCE STEP 1 Begin by taking two or three courgettes and slicing the tops and bottoms off. Divide each of these into quarters and then slice through the vegetables so that you have long, thin segments around a couple of centimetres thick. Place these into a colander, cover with a little olive oil and sea salt and set aside for ten minutes.

STEP 2

For the sauce, heat up a knob

22

of butter in a saucepan. Thinly slice a leek and add this to the butter. Fry the leeks lightly for around five minutes or until they become translucent. Next, slice through a handful of chives and add these to the leek. Finish by grinding a little pepper into the sauce pan and giving the vegetables a stir.

STEP 3 Combine another knob of butter and three tablespoons of cornflour into the saucepan so

that it forms a paste and, as you stir with one hand, pour in a little milk each time until the flour is absorbed into the milk. Continue to stir this until it begins to thicken. Break up several chunks of Stilton and stir this into your sauce, then remove from the hob.

STEP 4 Toss the courgette spaghetti into the leek sauce and serve.

MOTORING

Charmed, A I’m sure IAN DONALDSON DRIVES THE FORD FIESTA AND DISCOVERS SOPHISTICATED DRIVING DYNAMICS THAT DELIVER A REWARDING DRIVING EXPERIENCE

couple of miles into the drive I realised the latest offering to come from Ford was humming quietly along the main road – in fourth gear. If ever you needed a demonstration that the new Fiesta has matured into an even more serious player here it was, with two gears left to go.

At a stroke the best-selling car in the UK for the past eight years has turned from cheeky chappie (but loads of fun) into a car that feels bigger and softer and not quite so keen to have a laugh with you.

That certainly applies to the likely biggest seller in the new range, the Zetec trim version with its 100 horsepower engine and – crucially – new six-speed gearbox instead of the previous five.

There’s a more sporty, tied-down, ST-Line Fiesta due in the autumn which early signs say has fun factor 50 but it’s going to be a relatively small seller, thoroughly outgunned by less expensive versions – and with the Zetec taking more than half the total sales.

So it’s good that the Zetec – second up in a Fiesta pecking order stretching from 70 horsepower petrol at £12,715 Style to 120 horsepower

diesel, £21,225 Vignale – is such an instant charmer.

More so on the inside than out, you’d have to say. The exterior of the latest Fiesta has grown very modestly (70mm longer, 13mm wider but 20mm lower) and is completely restyled, although you might never guess.

That’s as fine a compliment to the outgoing model as you could pay; don’t mess with a look that’s won thousands of sales. Doesn’t do VW any harm with succeeding generations of Golfs, does it? The result is a car with space to spare in the front – and a near perfect driving position – but just enough room in the rear for a couple of adults and a boot big enough for a family’s supermarket shop, but less generous than some of the competition.

Inside is where the attention needed to be paid, with the old car’s dashboard looking increasingly like a relic from the past, littered with meanly-sized displays and an excess of tiny buttons.

All gone! Replaced in the modern minimalist fashion by a big iPad-like touchscreen that looks smart but doesn’t have a lot to say for itself without a satellite navigation map on

The 120bhp Fiesta Vignale

THE RESULT IS A CAR WITH SPACE TO SPARE IN THE FRONT - AND A NEAR PERFECT DRIVING POSITION

display (sat nav is standard on some of the dearer cars, a £300 option on others).

There’s more soft touch plastic than previously, lending a gently more upmarket feel to proceedings. With the posh Vignale version you will enjoy the heated leather seats and steering wheel that a mere Zetec trim car can only dream about.

If the all-change interior is a much needed step up, the engine choice is mostly as before, which is no bad thing if you enjoy the willing thrum of a three-cylinder petrol unit.

Gone is the old and mildly asthmatic 1.25 litre engine, with most new Fiestas using versions of the established 1.0 litre EcoBoost three-cylinder unit in differing outputs – 100/125/140 horsepower and with CO2 readings from as low as 97g/km.

The old 1.5 litre diesel engine remains, in two power outputs (85/120 horsepower, from 82g/km), but will take less than one in ten sales.

The new six-speed manual gearbox will feature in the bulk of new Fiestas, which will have five doors too.

Ford is sticking with a three-door option in a market increasingly ditching this choice on the grounds that not enough buyers bother these days to make it worthwhile.

The on-paper list price of most cars is an irrelevance these days and that’s absolutely the case with the Fiesta, where 85 per cent of private buyers will opt for a personal contract plan (PCP) that provides a Zetec-spec car

from £116 a month over three years and with a £5,000 deposit.

That’s an increase of £15 a month over the outgoing model but a drive in the new one makes that look a very sensible investment.

Tweaks to the suspension and clearly a lot of work on soundproofing have changed the Fiesta into a car that quietly soaks up bad British road surfaces, only objecting a little to the biggest bumps, and turning into corners with most of the eagerness of old.

Even with fourth gear standing in for sixth some of the time (blame that newfound quietness) the test drive showed 46mpg in a 100 horsepower version, which never felt underpowered.

If a tiny bit of the puppy dog spirit has gone, you have to reckon the payback in refined progress is going to be welcomed by the majority of owners.

And there are quicker, firmer ones on the way soon, don’t forget.

RECIPE

GREAT BRITISH BAKE-OFF STAR CANDICE BROWN IS STILL PINCHING HERSELF TO CHECK SHE’S NOT DREAMING, EVEN WITH HER NEW BOOK ABOUT TO COME OUT

S

ince we spoke to her ahead of her appearance at Gloucester Quays Food Festival this Sunday, the baking queen herself was more than happy to speak to Ella Walker all about waiting for her new book.

“It’s funny saying that... ‘my book!’” Candice says, with a small, bemused laugh.

Winning Bake Off, the ultimate show for those who pride themselves on the quality of their lemon drizzle and the sturdiness of their pie crust, would, you’d think, prepare a person for automatic cookbook domination and a tasty TV career. However, 32-year-old former PE teacher Candice is still utterly gobsmacked.

In fact, when she got the call confirming her book deal, she was wandering around Fortnum & Mason, staring at the meat in the butcher’s section – and had to hang up to gaze, stunned, at the carcasses for a while longer while the news sunk in.

Three manic months of writing, cooking, developing (and very little sleep) later, and the result is Comfort, a collection of Candice’s tried-andtested home classics: “The sort of things you want to grab a spoon, dive straight in and worry about burning your mouth later.”

Between snaps of her pug Dennis, the recipes are huge, decadent and sometimes borrowed treats – think an enormous, bubbling shepherd’s pie, sausage rolls the size of bricks, and her beloved nan’s boiled fruit cake.

“Everything has a story,” explains the London-born baker. “I’m so proud of it – it’s big flavours, it’s big pots.”

Piecing all the recipes together was something of a challenge though, as Candice admits she’s “bloody awful at writing them down”.

“Liam [my boyfriend] would al-

ways say to me, ‘Are you writing that down?’ And I’d go, ‘YES, YES!’, knowing full well I’m not writing anything down at all, because I do what I call a ‘guess-a-cake’ - I just whack everything in and hope for the best.

But then, if it works really well I’ll be like, ‘Argh, what did I put in that?!’”

And if it goes horribly wrong?

“Don’t worry about it,” she says.

“You either don’t tell anyone and start again, or you turn it into something else and say it was supposed to look like that – that’s how I get by a lot of the time.”

Minor mishaps aside, Candice, who started baking before the age of five, considers it “one of the only things that comes naturally to me”, but still doesn’t fully comprehend how she won Bake Off. “I don’t think I was the best baker in the tent,” says the pub landlord’s daughter, without artifice. “Some days I still don’t know how I did what I did, because I hadn’t been able to do it at home. Dad always said I was the same at university and school. I’d say, ‘I can’t do this, I can’t do it’, then the pressure would hit, and I’d get my head down and do it.”

In the end, and (controversial) lippy intact, she beat finalists Andrew Smyth and Jane Beedle to the crown.

“It’s crazy, it’s stressful, intense, it’s tiring – but I’d do it a hundred times over,” she says, recalling how demanding it was manning an oven while at the mercy of Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood’s taste buds. “I was going to work and, on lunch breaks, going down to town either to buy ingredients or popping into antiques shops [for props].”

Then she was coming home, baking until the early hours, snagging a few hours’ sleep and then going back to her teaching job come morning:

“It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”

And yes, she will be watching the new series on Channel 4. “It’s always been my favourite programme – it’s going to be so funny. Prue [Leith] is a culinary legend, then you’ve got Paul who’ll just give that ice stare and wind everyone up.

“And you know what? The breaks are just going to give you time to go for a wee and get a cup of tea.”

4. Stir in the paprika (both types), cayenne, dried thyme and mushroom powder. Turn the heat to medium. Add the tomato puree and stir in, then pour in the red wine. Allow this to bubble away for a couple of minutes before stirring in the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce.

5. Tip the whole lot over the meat in the casserole and give it a good mix round. The liquid should just be visible through the top layer of meat. Place the lid on the casserole and transfer to the oven to cook for two to two and a half hours – until the meat is tender. Stir occasionally.

6. With about one-and-a-half hours of cooking time to go, prick the sweet and baking potatoes with a knife, then set them on a baking tray and place in the oven with the casserole to bake for the remaining time.

7. Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan over a low/medium heat, add the leeks and cook for five to six minutes until soft. Set aside to cool.

8. When the meat filling is cooked, remove the casserole from the oven. Taste for seasoning, add more if needed and stir through.

Cover the casserole and set aside.

Increase the oven temperature to 180C fan (200C/400F/Gas Mark 6).

9. Using a sharp knife, cut each sweet and baking potato in half lengthways and scoop out the soft flesh into a large bowl. Mash all the flesh together with a splash of milk and knob of butter. Stir through the leeks and half of the grated cheese. Season with black pepper.

10. Cover the meat mixture with the potato and cheese mix. Scatter the remaining grated cheese over the top. Put the casserole back into the oven (without the lid) and bake for 25 minutes until the cheese has melted and the top is golden.

11. Serve hot, with a heap of broccoli and greens.

Finish mixing by hand.

3. Flatten the pastry into a square shape, wrap in cling film and rest in the fridge for 30-45 minutes.

4. Put all of the filling ingredients (except the black pudding) into a large bowl with salt and pepper and mix.

5. Remove the black outer coating and cut the pudding into 1cm sticks.

6. Set the chilled pastry on a lightly floured surface and roll out to 60 x 30cm, 3mm thick. Trim edges.

7. Spoon the filling into the centre of the pastry and squeeze it together to make a sausage shape.

Add the black pudding into the filling in straight lines.

8. Life each side of the pastry over the filling and brush the outside edge with beaten egg. Roll so the join is on the bottom and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.

9. Cut across into 5cm pieces and add to greased baking sheet that has been lined with greaseproof paper. Preheat the oven to 180C fan (200C/400F/Gas Mark 6).

10. Glaze the pastry with beaten egg (or milk) and snip a small ‘V’ on top of each roll. Bake for 20-30 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage filling is cooked and no longer pink.

11. Remove from the oven and gently lift the sausage rolls on to a wire rack to cool.

H A P P Y HOUR WITH DRINKS EXPERT APRIL MARKS, CO-FOUNDER OF REGENCY WINES LTD, EXETER

f you think the Spanish region of Rioja is all about red wine then think again! Admittedly the majority of wine produced in the area is red but the whites really are well worth trying. I’ve tried many white Riojas of varying quality made from either the Viura grape (high in acidity, light and fresh) or the Verdejo variety (akin to Sauvignon Blanc with zesty stone fruit flavours).

Yesterday I returned from the area having visited Finca Manzanos now run by forth gen-

eration Victor Manzanos where I sampled their Tempranillo Blanco. Now, I know what you’re thinking; Tempranillo is a black grape that makes red wines. You are right. However back in 1988 a mutation of Tempranillo was discovered. In amongst a vineyard of Tempranillo tinto one solitary vine produced fully ripe bunches of yellowy-green coloured grapes while all around it grapes on all the other vines turned the usual black. It was almost two decades later before officials of the wine industry in Rioja sanctioned the quality stamp of Denominacion De Origen (DOC). Today, through cuttings there are now small plantings of this lovely grape making absolutely delicious white Rioja.

GIN BUCK COCKTAIL

Wine of the Week

I use Black Dog gin from Dartmoor Distillery for its distinctive spicy ginger and orange character but any good quality gin is fine.

BODEGAS MANZANOS, TEMPRANILLO BLANCO, RIOJA SPAIN

50ml of Black Dog Gin Juice of one lemon Ginger Ale for topping up Ice

I drank this with prawns and squid which worked really well, although this is a fabulous wine that will work well with any seafood. Tropical fruit and white flower aromas carry through onto the palate which is well balanced and rounded due to the wine being matured on the lees.

Place a good scoop of ice in a highball glass. Pour in the gin and lemon juice then top up with ginger ale, simple yet really tasty.

or 51 weeks of my year my life revolves around the West Country, but this is the week when a lot of the West Country finds itself in London.

A decade back the Great British Beer Festival at Olympia (August 8-12) was the only game in town this time of year, but with the advent of the craft beer scene we now have events such as the London Craft Beer Fes-

ONE TO TRY:

WEST COUNTRY BREWERS ARE AS GOOD AS ANY IN LONDON, NAY THE WORLD...

tival at Hoxton (today and tomorrow) and the capital-wide London Beer City event (until August 13).

I recommend the trip because it’s a great way to see what’s happening outside of our South West bubble – and there are some terrific brewers, beers and venues in London – but also because a lot of our brewers will be ‘in town’ (as they say up there, according to my ‘norf’ London wife) and it’s a great

time to chill and talk beer with them.

Lest you think I’m in danger of going native, though, I stand by my oft-quoted assertion that our West Country brewers are as good as any in London, nay the world, when it comes to quality beer in all styles and strengths. But it never hurts to see what the competition is up to!

Okay, more than one to try… It’s the Devon Street Food festival in Ilfracombe this weekend and Powderkeg Brewery will be there with a selection of beers. Expect fresh, hoppy, fruity brews that pair well with the nosh. Diet tomorrow… @beertoday

N FACT FILE OVERVIEW: From Combe Martin beach west on the Coast Path over the Little and Great Hangmen and back via the inland route past Girt Farm.

DISTANCE AND GOING: 5 miles. Steep at the beginning.

GET HERE: Type EX340DJ into your sat nav.

PARKING: Use the car park at Combe Martin beach.

RECOMMENDED MAP: The Ordnance Survey Outdoor Leisure Map 9, Exmoor

So how do we go about finding some unique and romantic places? Well, one easy way is to spot an intriguing name on the Ordnance Survey map. And they don’t come much more intriguing than Wild Pear Beach, which lies directly underneath a great pyramid of a hill called the Little Hangman.

Both a visit to the enigmatically named beach and to the hill begin at Combe Martin. What surprises people about England’s longest village is that it was once an relatively important port. It might have just a small cove today, but the last commercial cargoes were landed here in the 1930’s, and before that largish boats were actually built in the place.

Between 1837 and 1843 John Dovell built no fewer than eight vessels here - four schooners and four smacks. The largest was the Combemartin and she weighed in at a hefty 94 tons.

It is remarkable how quickly one

One of the great delights in roaming our peninsula is in enjoying the sense of romance that our hills and dales, coasts and vales, moors and levels, all have to a legendary degree.

We all love beautiful places - and if the location has some mystery, enigma or story behind it, then so much the better. The enormous popularity of TV programmes like Poldark prove that - but we don’t have to enjoy our landscapes through a screen.

It is all too easy to get out there and find fascinating places, as this column - in all its guises - has been advertising and aggrandising for the past 18 years.

can leave the crowds behind in just about any Westcountry coastal resort.

At Combe Martin there is a public greensward stretching steeply east above the beach; walk to the top of this and you are likely to find yourself alone. There’s a small hole in the hedge at the top and if you squeeze through and follow the tiny track, you’ll eventually meet up with the South West Coast Path proper.

We are now high above Lester Point and heading east along Lester Cliff. It’s here that you can witness the remarkable geography of Combe Martin. In the village you have the impression that the valley runs at right-angles to the sea - but in fact it follows contours from the south east.

This has the effect of creating an ever narrowing peninsula of hills.

The path along Lester Cliff is on the very edge of all this - a cosy valley and village to your right - nothing but thin air to your left. The effect reminded me of those street frontages

MARTIN’S MUSTS

ASIAN ASCENSION Walkers get hungry - especially on seaside hikes like this one.

But you don’t want too much food in summer heat, so a light Asian-style lunch is ideal.

The dishes served at Kahuna in Newquay fit the bill. The inexpensive restaurant was recently recommended in a national newspaper by chef Nathan Outlaw.

erected by film-makers: go round the back and there’s nothing there.

That’s not completely true at Lester Cliff, because far below is Wild Pear Beach which you can reach by descending a steep winding path.

But our main walk continues up the coast path to the Little Hangman which to the east is dominated by its big brother - the Great Hangman. Why the pair were given their somewhat gruesome appellation, I have no idea.

At 716 feet there is nothing small about the Little Hangman.

Even from its wavetorn base it is a thing of vastness, like a Devonshire Matterhorn.

We climb to the top on this circular walk. The Little Hangman offers

gles to the coast path and eventually curves around to run west along Knap Down. It terminates at a metalled road, which you walk down for just a small stone’s-throw before turning left onto another path. This threads its way down to the heart of Combe Martin where I can recommend a visit to the village’s beautiful church.

St Peter Ad Vincula is a fine old sandstone temple and just down the road is the bizarre and delightful Pack Of Cards Inn which not only looks like a house of cards but, legend has it, was built as a result of a fortune won at the gambling tables.

A leisurely stroll down the main street and you are back where you began. You can loll upon the beach - and I, for one, was most happy to do so having climbed those spookily named, but magnificent, hangmen.

Ed’s note: Wild Pear Beach is listed as a naturist beach on some websites, but Martin hasn’t seen a single bare buttock on any of his many visits.

stunning views to the west. A climb up here at sunset would be well worth the effort, though you’d have to watch your step on the way back down as the light faded...

The Great Hangman is exactly 100 metres higher than its little brother and the path slowly ascends to it high above Rawn’s Rocks and Blackstone Beach - a strand frequented by nothing but seabirds and the occasional seal.

If you are in any doubt as to the whereabouts of the actual summit of the Great Hangman, a cairn marks the spot and from there our hike is all downhill.

Just south east of the cairn a footpath sets off south across the fields at right-an-

So, if you want to fool your friends into thinking you’ve trained with bona fide nonnas, hers is the advice you ought to follow...

The traditional way to cook something should never be sniffed at

“I prefer traditional cooking as there are so many fantastic recipes that need no improvement – they went through centuries of improvement before they got to us. A dish relies on the freshness of the ingredients. It’s difficult to go crazy – and I don’t see that as a bad thing.”

L

ove summer, but hate the discomfort of overheating? Warmer months are great, but rising temperatures can lead to clammy, irritated and even sore skin, especially when it comes to exercise. Gyms might be air-conditioned but often, the changing rooms aren’t – which means you can end up sweating more after your shower than before.

A true Italian will never tire of arguing over the best way to make tiramisu

“Some people say it must contain booze and some say it shouldn’t, some say egg whites or cream... There are some really iconic recipes that you’ll find in each household, and every family will have their own recipe. There is no authentic recipe, it’s just what you like and prefer.”

Italians know their core ingredients, and stick to them “Olive oil – definitely – it depends on the region again, but for Venezia, it’s rice and cornmeal, wheat is also in the set of ingredients. And seafood.”

The secret to perfect pasta is in the flour

“Really good wheat flour, 00 [a grade of flour used in Italy but available here], as it’s nice, fine flour. Good eggs, too, that are fresh and free range, with a nice golden yolk.”

Stick with what you know when trying to impress friends...

“Make things that you know how to make with your eyes closed. Don’t experiment too much and try to feel comfortable. I usually make antipasti, and a risotto. I make the risotto while people are finishing the antipasti and I disappear for 15 minutes, and then a baked fish and finally, cookies and good wine.”

FIVE MINUTES WITH

PAT R I C K

Oliver JacksonCohen as Michael and James McArdle as Thomas in Man In An Orange Shirt

GALE

With BBC’s Gay Britannia season in full swing, novelist Patrick Gale has applied his writing skills to the screen in order to dazzle with flagship drama Man In An Orange Shirt.

He tells Gemma Dunn how he used his own journey as an inspiration and why intervention is key when it comes to understanding – and accepting – sexuality TELL US ABOUT MAN IN AN ORANGE SHIRT

Man In An Orange Shirt is the most exciting screen project I’ve worked on to date: an original drama exploring strands of gay male experience since the 1940s.

It has been such a privilege to be given such an open brief and then allowed to run with it.

I don’t want to give too much away but after much experimenting, we’ve ended up with two hourlong films – one set in the 1940s and ’50s, one set in the violently contrasted present; one depicting a love story made impossible by pressures from society, one a love story nearly derailed by the longterm fallout from the 1940s’ story.

HOW DOES SCREENWRITING COMPARE TO PENNING NOVELS?

It’s a very different process.

[Executive producer] Diederick [Santer] and the team were amazing; to start with they just left me completely alone and said, “Go away, go away and do this!” and I began with an idea that was wildly over-ambitious and much longer than this. But what I found so fascinating compared to writing a novel was when it got to the

but I know other men and women who would have taken a more violent attack on themselves, and I don’t think that’s going away with legislation.

collaborative stage. I really fed off that.

AS A GAY MAN YOURSELF, WAS THIS AN OPPORTUNITY TO SAY SOMETHING IMPORTANT?

WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE ANSWER?

I owe Lucy Richer from the BBC so much, but she did give me the most terrifying commission I think any writer has ever had, which was basically to say, “OK, we want something with the flavour of a Patrick Gale novel and we want you to reflect 20th-century gay male experience.” We did end up losing a lot. I did write about Aids, I did write about Clause 28, but ultimately the narrative had to be emotionally coherent.

I feel passionately it’s about education and intervention. I think you need to intervene very early in a child’s life. I knew I was gay at seven; a lot of mothers are very uncomfortable hearing that because they don’t like to think of their child as having any kind of sexuality, but this is not about sex.

I knew at that age that I didn’t apply to the Disney model to gender and gender roles and a lot of [mothers] who have read my novel Rough Music have written to me saying how profoundly guilty the book made them feel, because they realised looking back that they knew their child was gay, but they were just waiting for it to go away.

GAY SHAME SEEMS TO BE INTRINSIC IN GAY DRAMA. IS IT A VITAL COMPONENT? My parents were very sweet and loving, very Christian. They never said the word “gay” out loud, they were physically incapable of it unless they were referring to a pretty something. They were very supportive and [yet] they passed gay shame on to me. I had appalling, really bad eczema through most of my teens, which was completely unspoken about.

My shame came out in my skin,

WHO DO YOU HOPE WILL WATCH THE DRAMA?

The story is so universal. I want it to be inviting. I would love people who maybe are homophobic or whatever to find themselves

watching this and almost forget it’s about gay people. Just sort of take the romantic story for what it is.

And I think that’s part of the beauty of the writing and the drama as a whole, is that it should feel very, very universal.

YOU’LL BE EXPLORING YOUR OWN JOURNEY IN ALL FAMILIES HAVE SECRETS – IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WISH YOU’D SAID OR DONE DIFFERENTLY?

I’d like to know what my late father really thought about me being gay, because as some of you may know, the story of Man In An Orange Shirt is actually my discovery. I tried to come out to my mother at 22, but my father had had a love affair with another man and when she was pregnant with me, she’d found the love letters and burnt them. In real life she never told him, never confronted him. But to my dying shame, I never had the conversation with my father, ever. He knew I was gay, he loved my lovers, but we never had the conversation and I still wonder.

Stately home with a twist BETHAN EVANS GETS A TASTE OF ROYAL TREATMENT AT THE BEAVERBROOK ESTATE, SURREY

M

any great hotels have a delightful tendency to treat guests like members of the family. The’re welcoming, happy to help and want to make sure you are comfortable and settled – but a trip to the Beaverbrook Estate in Surrey made me feel like I was living a day in the life of a member of the royal family.

Of course there was no red carpet rolled out, but that would have detracted from the beautifully stylish, country-chic décor spilling from every corner of the Garden House.

We found the hotel easily after a drive passing fields and miles of perfectly manicured golf course bordering the stately home and its accompanying houses.

The Garden House is picture-perfect and surrounded by more fields, one of which is dedicated to the Garden House Restaurant’s kitchen and filled with herbs, fruit and vegetables.

But before we fully explored these fresh delights, we entered the house and were greeted by smiling faces tucked behind a snug reception booth under a large staircase. A line of Hunter wellington boots, ready for families who want to explore the great outdoors, stood next to the reception.

We were led up this great staircase to the landing, which is largely taken up by a deep oak chest of drawers decorated with cups and saucers, a coffee machine, a selection of teas, biscuits, brownies and bottles of single malt whiskey.

These treats, we were told, were for us and any other guests of the Garden House to enjoy whenever we pleased.

This was more than welcome after the motorway drive – but there was more to come.

We were led into Lovage, a room towards the back of the house, which was quiet and calm and had views of the grounds and forestry. A gorgeous bedroom-sized bathroom greeted us, along with its vintage purple free-standing bathtub filled with lavender cosmetics and a walk-in shower. The bathroom was tiled in deep green which sparkled a little under the soft glow of the bathroom lights.

There was definitely a feeling of spa-like tranquillity, helped by the thick, soft bathrobes which were waiting for us.

The bedroom was cosy and beautifully decorated, with mismatched furniture, pastel shades and French doors, which led onto a private terrace. We were able to sample some

of the hotel’s delights, including Laurent Perrier champagne and Sipsmith vodka.

Although our room was the perfect haven for a weekend getaway following a hectic week, we made the decision to leave our elegant snug and explore what the estate had to offer.

We toured the gardens around the house, which included an adorable “potting shed” area, where herbs and chillies were grown for the restaurant’s kitchen as well as the Garden House cooking school, which will soon be open for parties to book.

The potting shed is also a great place to sit and enjoy a drink, comforted by woollen blankets draped over the wicker chairs.

Looking beyond the Garden House, visitors can book into The Cottage – a house with enough space to accommodate a very large family, so don’t let the name put you off.

The main house on the Beaverbrook estate – previously owned by Lord Beaverbrook, a business tycoon and newspaper publisher – stands proudly overlooking the glorious Surrey hills. It’s currently enjoying some refurbishments to make it ready to welcome guests into grand bedrooms and a restaurant, which will be separate to that of the Garden House.

Beyond the stunning Mediterranean gardens, heading down to the woods towards the lower end of the estate, a secret lies waiting for youngsters to uncover.

The line from the traditional children’s rhyme “if you go down to the woods today you’re sure of a big surprise” definitely rings true for Beaverbrook Estate, as families can explore an incredible treehouse, captained by children’s party team Sharkie and George. There are also trails, tree cabins and a huge tepee, all creating a magical experience for young ones.

And while the kids explore the estate’s playground, the Hideout, as well as the deep woods, parents will soon be able to enjoy deep-tissue massages once work is finished on the Court House Spa, which is connected to the main house by an orangery.

Visitors will be able to indulge in the delights the spa has to offer with or without a hotel booking, and the same goes for the new restaurant. The theme is still being kept under wraps but the idea is to create a variety of dining experiences at the

Beaverbrook estate.

The Garden House Restaurant has an Italian feel mixed with traditional British dishes and desserts.

My experience of the restaurant was truly superb; the food was impeccable and the flavours were spectacular. My fiancé and I dined on crispy duck and gnoccillini (a fusion of gnocchi and tortellini) with goat’s cheese and pistachio for starter.

The gnoccillini was recommended to me by a lovely member of staff and she was spot on – the flavours of this dish need to be tasted to be believed, the softness of the dumplings was perfect and the melted cheese and shreds of pistachio bonded together perfectly.

For mains we were treated once again. I enjoyed the pork belly and my partner said he tasted one of the best steaks he had ever had. The portion sizes were very generous, too.

Dessert came in the form of vanilla cheesecake with olive oil sorbet – an admittedly unusual combination, but refreshing with just a little kick from the olive oil – and a deliciously rich, thick chocolate torte with salted caramel and ice cream called the “chocolate nemesis”. As a chocolate lover, this for me was truly incredible and the perfect end to the meal.

We were lucky enough to have a quick chat with head chef Kaz Suzuki after dinner, too – the genius was casually chatting to one of the friendly barmen in the “snug” area on the ground floor of the Garden House, a room filled with plush sofas and chairs and with a little window opening onto a small bar where you can enjoy an after-dinner drink.

If you need a recommendation, the Elderfizz cocktail is sweet and refreshing. Quite like my experience of Beaverbrook, if you add a dash of elegance and top it off with a swirl of impeccability.

he deafening roar of F1 engines reverberates from my eardrums to the pit of my stomach. Somebody offers me a pair of earplugs to muffle the sound, but I politely decline. We are just metres away from the starting grid at the Bahrain International Circuit and there is no adrenaline rush like it (if you like supercars, that is).

The fact that we’re stone-cold sober – watching from a “dry” box to respect our local hosts – means we’re even more focused on all 57 laps as Sebastian Vettel cruises into pole position. Even the podium finish forgoes the traditional champagne spray in favour of a sparkling non-alcoholic drink called Waard (though drinking alcohol isn’t banned in Bahrain for non-Muslims).

“My grandfather was a pearl diver,” our city guide Fadhal proudly announces, “but that all changed with the arrival of oil.”

Bahrain – still known as the “Pearl of the Gulf” – first discovered oil in 1931, which coincided with the collapse of the once flourishing world pearl market. We visit the very unassuming site of the first ever Oil Well No.1 at the foothill of Jabal Al Dukhan and check out the drilling equipment that helped trigger Bahrain’s boom. The clunky machinery is a far cry from the high-tech hydraulics we saw in action at the Formula 1.

Now, with limited reserves and oil prices plummeting, Middle East countries like Bahrain have switched their focus from trade to tourism – attracting 200,000 visitors a week in the process.

tourism pull (tickets from £123 (60 BD) at bahraingp.com). Revving up over three days, a schedule of practice sessions, driver meet-and-greets, pit lane walks and pre-race concerts (hello, Enrique Iglesias) means that hotels, hip restaurants and plane seats get booked up fast during the Formula 1 buzz window.

But, Lewis Hamilton and co aside, the small island state in the gulf is gearing up to be a tourist destination in its own right; like a baby Dubai of sorts – but with way more history and cultural pull.

Bahrain is made up of 33 islands but the majority of denizens are on mainland Bahrain and the island of Muharraq, which are connected by road. Islands such as Hawar and Umm An Na’san are mainly sanctuaries for Bahraini wildlife, including spiny-tailed lizards, sand gazelles and protected Socotra cormorant birds.

38

clude high-gloss hotels like the Four Seasons Bahrain Bay, which you’ll find on its own exclusive island, and chic international restaurants such as the Asia de Cuba.

This isn’t the Manhattan of the Middle East yet, but it’s slowly getting there.

Bahrain Bay, on the north coast of capital Manama, is the equivalent of Dubai’s mega-luxe The Palm – an ambitious 2.5-billion-dollar project that includes the new Wyndham Grand Manama Hotel, an iconic twisted glass structure that you can see for miles.

But despite the hype of shiny new development, it’s the Bahraini culture and history that’s perhaps the biggest draw for Brit first-timers.

We visit Haji’s Cafe, the oldest restaurant in Manama, to refuel for a day of sightseeing. A recent visit from celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck has made

Bahrain Fort

IT PLAYS HOST TO FORMULA 1 BUT THERE’S MORE TO BAHRAIN THAN FAST CARS AND OIL. LISA HAYNES DISCOVERS WHAT THE ARAB STATE HAS TO OFFER the authentic cafe even more popular with locals and tourists.

There’s no set menu because it changes by the hour, so we’re warmly welcomed by the charismatic owner with red tea and saffron milk as we receive plate after plate of surprise mini breakfast dishes. It’s a banquet of egg mixed with tomato and coriander, chickpeas, cheesy beans, warm Bahraini flat breads and fresh natural yogurts.

We brave the searing midday heat to explore an archaeological site which was once the capital of Dilmun, one of the region’s most important ancient civilizations. The ruins of the 16th-century Portuguese fort Qal’at Al Bahrain, now a World Heritage Site, perch atop layers of human occupation.

Another trip highlight is wandering through the magical narrow alleyways of Muharraq, Bahrain’s sec-

the black coffee you’d find at home.

Lighter and sweeter, it’s often flavoured with cardamom and other spices.

We head back to Manama, which is much buzzier and more atmospheric than the sleepy backstreets of Muharraq. We weave through the colourful markets, which have a constant chattering of sewing machines and locals haggling for produce.

The original location for Manama’s jewel trading, the gold souk is now a prime window-shopping location for magpies, with more than 30 family-owned stores selling nothing but shiny gold. The purest gold available in Bahrain is 24 carat and the price per gram is £31.86 (around 15.50BHD), with every piece weighed on small scales to determine the price.

With his pearl diving ancestry, it’s only fitting that our guide Fadhal takes us to one of Manama’s most

ond largest island and another World Heritage Site. Extensive restoration projects – some still ongoing – have brought some of its oldest properties back to life.

We seek shade at Sheikh Isa Bin Ali House in Muharraq, which gives you a glimpse into how 19th-century Bahraini royalty lived.

With its ornate wall carvings and stained-glass windows, it’s considered one of the most impressive examples of Gulf Islamic architecture in Bahrain. Other features include a natural take on air-conditioning – we stand under a mini “wind tower” to feel the light breeze created by the building’s makeshift cooling system.

We make a pit-stop at the House of Coffee for a mid-tour energy boost, a modern space that was once three traditional Bahraini houses. Gahwa (Arabic coffee) is a big part of Arabian hospitality but it’s nothing like

prestigious pearl shops, Al Hashimi Pearls. The owner proudly showcases one of the most expensive types of pearl, Dana, which can set you back around £20,000 for a necklace.

I wonder who might splash out on such an expensive piece, but then you never know – there might be a Formula 1 driver just around the corner...

BOOKS

Shelf portraits THE BEST KIND OF PEOPLE

BY ZOE WHITTALL is published in hardback by Hodder & Stoughton, priced £16.99 (ebook £7.99) Canadian novelist Zoe Whittall’s latest novel examines the painful aftershocks of a rape accusation.

Set in the fictional wealthy town of Avalon Hills, Connecticut, life as they know it is turned upside down for the Woodbury family when father and popular science teacher George Woodbury is accused of sexually assaulting multiple female students.

Having saved the school from a shooting 10 years before, the town is initially dumbfounded, but disbelief quickly transitions to hate.

George’s trauma nurse wife Joan receives daily public harassment and when their straight-A student daughter Sadie is abandoned by her friends and bullied, she rapidly descends into a lifestyle of casual sex and drug use. Whittall delves into the waspy minds of Joan, Sadie and various locals and, through their inner turmoil, George’s true character is revealed drip by drip. Relevant, engrossing, believable, but never feeling opportunistic, you will be left wondering just who George is.

REVIEW BY LAURA HANNAM

DON’T CRY BY MARY GAITSKILL is published in paperback by Serpent’s Tail, priced £8.99 (ebook £4.31) The best of the stories in this new collection of shorts, from the author of Veronica and Two Girls Fat And Thin, are very, very good. The stand-out is The Arms And Legs Of The Lake, in which Gaitskill weaves a painfully intricate and absorbing drama from the perspectives of a group of strangers on a train journey to Syracuse, NY. Deftly, the narrative drifts in and out of the viewpoints of, among others, a damaged African-American Iraq war returnee, a middle-aged English teacher and peace activist, and Carter Brown, a World War II vet who can’t see the point of this more recent war.

Economical, intimate and unsparing, the story’s control of perspective and acuity of insight give it the rich, satisfying feel of a novel.

In another story, College Town, 1980, we meet a group of shiftless flatmates adrift at the start of the Reagan era; the desultory vibe contrasts with the pitiless penetration of the observations, just as the characters’ debates about personal power ring hollow in their world of endless coffee jags and petty vendettas. Some of the other stories are more conceptual in nature, aiming for a pleasure that is more cerebral and less immersive.

prizes in Norway, is published in English for the first time. Author Morten Stroksnes describes his efforts, alongside his old friend Hugo Aasjord, to catch a Greenland Shark, from an RIB (rigid-inflatable boat) in the Vestfjorden off Norway. This is a shark that can grow up to 26 feet in length, weigh more than a tonne and live for 200 years.

Set over the four seasons of the year, Stroksnes visits the area several times in pursuit of the shark, and his story is told alongside titbits of history, fishing and ecology. It feels like there is a slight clash between the efforts that go into catching this beast of the ocean alongside the passages containing notes on conservation, depleted fish stocks and preserving the planet, but it isn’t like the two protagonists are trawling the sea in a destructive manner. Shark Drunk is a fascinating and educating journey, written in a beautifully descriptive yet crisp style that is a must-read for anyone who enjoys nature or just wants to escape to some Scandinavian fjords.

REVIEW BY DAN BROTZEL

THE BEDLAM STACKS BY NATASHA PULLEY is published in hardback by Bloomsbury Circus, priced £12.99 (ebook £6.47) Natasha Pulley had a lot to live up to after the runaway success of her debut novel, The Watchmaker Of Filigree Street. But she’s managed to do just that with The Bedlam Stacks. Sticking to a similar era (there are subtle connections between the two books throughout), Pulley abandons England for Peru. The book follows a crippled smuggler working for the East India Company as he – along with two companions – heads deep into uncharted territory to find cinchona trees, the only source of quinine that can cure the outbreak of malaria across the Empire.

It’s a fast-paced adventure story with great characters and a message about colonialism and discovering new worlds. The book is filled with wondrous images, from moving statues to exploding trees. It stutters slightly in the middle, spending a little too long establishing the magical and holy town of Bedlam, with its natural glass towers, Incan descendants and illuminated pollen. But once it gets back on track, it rolls along at speed to a satisfying ending.

The lady of the lake AWARD-WINNING AND HIGHLY ACCLAIMED, TOP OF THE LAKE RETURNS WITH ITS SECOND SERIES THIS WEEK. WRITER-DIRECTOR JANE CAMPION SPEAKS TO KATE WHITING

J

ane Campion – giggly, warm and quietly glamorous – is describing how she and Ari Kleiman, co-director of Top Of The Lake: China Girl, used subterfuge to research the setting for the sequel to 2013’s acclaimed Top Of The Lake: Sydney’s sex industry.

To get into a brothel, they pretended he was a virgin and she his aunt, who wanted to help.

“We got ourselves into the sex room,” says Campion, 63, who won an Oscar for her screenplay of The Piano. “It was understood that he wasn’t there for sex, just to experience being close to a woman and talk to her.”

Eventually, they found a group of sex workers who were happy to talk about “anything”.

“We had the experience of hanging out at this one brothel and they were so generous and funny. It does feel like [they could say] anything, [like] how popular the ladyboys are with the married men.”

Top Of The Lake: China Girl starts with the body of a woman (unidentified, so nicknamed China Girl for her ethnicity) washing up on the shores of Sydney in a suitcase, her dark hair streaming from inside.

Mad Men’s Elisabeth Moss returns as Detective Robin Griffin, who investigates the case and gets an unlike-

ly new partner in Game Of Thrones’ Gwendoline Christie.

Those who watched – and loved – season 1 (it was Emmy and Bafta nominated and won Moss a Golden Globe) will remember we left Robin at the edge of the New Zealand lake, with Johno, who she likes, but who may or may not be her brother, having found missing pregnant girl Tui. At the beginning of the second series, she’s back home in Sydney and clearly unhappy.

“You could have gone anywhere [with it],” says Moss, 34. “You could have had four years later and her and Johno had this great relationship and had a baby, or you could go the way we went, which was not the happiest.

I requested that we go in a darker, deeper, more challenging direction, as I really didn’t think there was much to do otherwise.”

One of the biggest changes this series is the move from the open skies of the New Zealand countryside (where The Piano’s Holly Hunter headed up an all-female commune beside the titular lake) to the hustle and bustle of Sydney.

“I just couldn’t come up with any ideas set in New Zealand,” explains Campion.

“But I also live in Syndey and [it’s] a really exciting location for me. The ocean really is that wild quality – the

42

L-R Elisabeth Moss, Jane Campion and Alice Englert

edge of the city that can be like a wild beach, it can be really peaceful, it’s really moody.”

Besides the main investigation, the other big plotline is that of Robin reconnecting with the daughter she gave up as a baby. Now a teenager, played by Campion’s real-life daughter Alice Englert, Mary lives at home in a posh suburb of Sydney with her dad, who her academic mum (Nicole Kidman) has left for another woman.

Moss explains: “The second season, far more than the first, is very much about female relationships and the complications and uniqueness of [them].

“It’s [also] about motherhood and different kinds of parenting. Robin is technically a mother, but she has never experienced being with her daughter, so she has to find her own way of being a mother to Mary.”

Mary finds solace in the arms of “Puss” (David Dencik), a shady, German academic who lives in a flat with his cats and hangs out with the sex workers. So the question is what does Puss know of China Girl’s murder and is Mary in trouble?

Well, the most either the mum and daughter duo will reveal is that some of Englert’s scenes were so distressing, Campion asked co-director Kleiman to direct them.

“She found it upsetting to see me upset, which is so cute isn’t it?” says Englert, 23. “She’s a good mum! I really trust her and it’s a pleasure to work for her.”

Campion wrote the role of Mary with her daughter in mind.

“I didn’t realise how brave it was until I finished it all. I thought ‘Oh my God, what if she’d been really bad?’

I think she did really really well, but it did suddenly occur to me it could have been not a gift, but a bomb!”

Also joining the cast was Gwendoline Christie, known for playing Brienne of Tarth in Game Of Thrones

Elisabeth Moss as Detective Robin Griffin in Top Of The Lake: China Girl

Alice Englert as Mary in Top Of The Lake: China Girl

and Captain Phasma in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which she’ll reprise in The Last Jedi this December.

A huge fan of the first series, she wrote to Campion, saying how much she’d love to work with her.

“She’s a friend of a friend of mine and I didn’t know her or her work, so I Youtubed Game Of Thrones and thought, ‘Oh God, she’s amazing!’” says Campion. “And I really thought her and Lizzie, who’s 5-foot-something little, with this 6-foot-something partner, would be great.”

On screen, they make an odd-looking crime-fighting team, but both Moss and Christie (who plays Miranda) loved exploring the female friendship.

Christie describes it as “conflicted, complex, disturbing, unsettling and tumultuous”, adding that she and Moss “developed a glorious friendship that allowed us to embrace the work and do everything we could to make it really flourish”.

Moss adds: “Neither of us want to spoil anything for anyone because it is actually a giant arc – it’s the main relationship of the season besides the one of me and my daughter so it’s very important to me. Miranda is really quite sensitive, open, enthusiastic and passionate, whereas Robin projects this exterior that she wants to be considered strong, fierce, tough, but really she is very soft and vulnerable on the inside. They do connect over what they have in common.”

The actress also has a couple of scenes with Nicole Kidman, when Mary’s adoptive mother and biological mother meet.

Moss reveals: “She came round for two weeks at the end [of the shoot] and I was so tired and got to have a few weeks off while she was working. I was very happy to see her!”

hat do you do when the sun in your life has lost its shine?

What do you do when the resident mental health professional has fallen victim to the ill he works so hard to protect you from?

Our brown Lab has been visited by the black dog. He has returned home depressed.

While we sunned ourselves abroad on holiday the usual procedure was put into operation: he took up temporary residence with my father-in-law.

But the usual procedure did not follow when we collected him on our return.

Normally the reunion has to be staged outdoors for fear of the havoc that 32 kilos of ecstatic, outof-control dog might wreak in collateral damage on prized ornaments.

This time there was no crazed, Tigger-on-springs greeting for us.

There was no head-first charge that could flatten an All Black forward.

We had to make do with some leisurely tail-wagging. I’ve seen him give total strangers twice the attention.

And all this in our hour of need.

We’d had a fantastic holiday and re-

GILLIAN MOLESWORTH PREFERS HER CAMPING LOW-TECH

I

just saw a TV ad for the latest gaming gadget: a Nintendo Switch, which allows you to play video games “anytime, anywhere” by connecting to various devices. Glamorous people (all physically fit, not the sort of body you get from playing constant video games, I note) demonstrated what uproarious fun this was.

Among them were a father and young son in a tent. Their faces were lit by a blue glow as they battled it out, any birdsong replaced with electronic bleeps.

Inner defences breached! Our last bastion has fallen!

Parents, a moment’s silence. It’s official: nothing is sacred.

A TENT? Honestly, if there was ANY family activity left to break the electronic thrall that holds our children, surely it was camping. Camping, where we get back to basics. Camping, where the rich tapestry of nature is our entertainment.

I had a massive rant to my husband, who shrugged. “Camping can be boring,” he said.

That brought me up short. Did I have my rose coloured glasses on?

I remember camping very fondly.

turned to routine with a shock to rival the bump of the plane on the runway and the 10C drop in temperature outside.

Our spirits were as low as the cloud cover.

Mystified by the dog’s lack of enthusiasm, we asked whether he had been missing out.

The morning grooming session?

Check. Daily walk on the beach or the dunes? Check.

The mid-morning snack? Lunchtime chew? Full evening meal? Lavish fuss and constant chatter all day long?

Check, check, check, check.

Plus extras: occasional marrow bones, stints of fetch and an extra, daily hour-long yomp.

In short his twoweek stay on the north Cornwall coast was the perfect vacation.

Which explains the dog’s subdued mood now the break is over: he’s got post-holiday depression.

There’s no cure, but there is a preventative measure in the case of the dog: we can take him with us next time.

Best not tell my father-in-law though: I think he’s got the post-holiday-dog blues.

We camped in some beautiful spots over the years. As the youngest of four, it meant that all my siblings HAD to do things with me, as there was no place for them to escape.

I also remember how much my sister hated it. As far as she was concerned, it was sleeping uncomfortably, with no hair dryer, in close proximity to her annoying siblings, and having NOTHING TO DO. For hours and hours, a horizon of nothing stretching interminably ahead.

All our family camping photos have five big smiles and one thunderous scowl.

Mind you, experts are now extolling the value of boredom. It allows your mind to downshift and to drift. It encourages creativity and resourcefulness. None of this seemed to apply to my sister though. It just allowed the space for her and my mother to fight like cats in a bag.

So a little escapism might have helped keep the peace. I won’t go so far as to endorse video games though: if you’re getting pestered for a Nintendo Switch, resist. Chant with me now: “Keep camping wire free! Birds not bleeps!”

WE CAMPED IN SOME BEAUTIFUL SPOTS OVER THE YEARS. AS THE YOUNGEST OF FOUR, IT MEANT THAT ALL MY SIBLINGS HAD TO DO THINGS WITH ME
