WORDS BY C HRIS TINE TONER

Despite the turbulence the housing market has experienced over the last few years, the desire to own a home remains and across the country millions of would-be first time buyers are doing all they can to make the move onto the property ladder.

Here, we take a look at one of the innovative schemes on offer to help them do just that.

p39-58_p03-12 02/07/2013 14:48 Page 47

HOT TOPIC

A

sk the majority of renters whether they would like to own their own home and the answer will be yes. While, admittedly, some people choose to rent because of the lifestyle it affords them, the bulk of people are not doing so through choice. So what’s stopping them from taking the plunge and buying their first home? The answer? Cash. Yes, ever since the property market was brought to its knees by the global credit crunch, banks and lenders have not been too kind to first time buyers. If you want to get on the property ladder, you’re going to have to come up with a hefty deposit to minimise the risk to the lender. And saving for these deposits while paying out for rent is often near on impossible.

As a result the government, developers and affordable housing providers have been working together to come up with a range of schemes and initiatives to give first-timers a helping hand – one of which is OwnPlace.

BUYERS WILL RECEIVE A GRANT FROM RIVERSIDE EQUIVALENT TO 25% OF THE MARKET VALUE OF A PROPERTY

various levels. Firstly it allows local people to buy a property in their local area and secondly it helps to regenerate an area by removing the number of empty properties. The properties will not be sold to investors, landlords or developers, only to owner occupiers so there’s a good chance they’ll be cared for and well-maintained. And when an area is well-maintained there’s more chance of other people moving into it.

WHAT DO I DO NOW? If you would like to buy a property through OwnPlace you must keep your eyes peeled for OwnPlace properties coming to the market.

They will be marketed through estate agent Brennan Ayre O’Neill and will be clearly branded ‘OwnPlace’. Once you find one you like you’ll need to complete an application form.

For more information visit www.Own Place.org.

• You must be aged 18 or over

WHAT RIVERSIDE SAYS...

• You must be living in rented accommodation or with friends or family • You must be able to show that you need help buying a property (i.e. because you don’t earn enough to do it alone)

WHAT IS OWNPLACE? OwnPlace is a scheme aimed at helping aspiring homeowners to buy a property by giving them a massive discount on the purchase price.

Backed by Riverside, the scheme involves the sale of empty properties, thus helping to regenerate areas in the process.

As the provider states: “OwnPlace properties are often grouped together so the investment you make in your new home will benefit from the improvements being carried out to surrounding houses by owner occupiers improving their properties to create a better neighbourhood.”

Buyers will receive a 25% discount off the market value of a property. As long as the buyer lives in the property for at least five years before selling it on they will not have to repay the grant.

WHO IS IT FOR? Anyone looking to purchase a home through OwnPlace must meet the following criteria:

• However, you must also be able to show, if you buy with OwnPlace, you will be able to afford (and maintain) the property • You must have either a mortgage or the savings in place to make the sale.

If you already own a home you may still be eligible to buy through OwnPlace if, for example, you have to move out of your current home because of a relationship breakdown.

WHAT KIND OF PROPERTIES ARE AVAILABLE? There are a range of properties available but mainly two and three-bedroom terraced houses which have been empty for a while.

At the time of going to press there were 38 properties available through the scheme in the Merseyside area.

IS IT ANY GOOD?

“We’ve been delivering OwnPlace for over five years now and have helped over 250 households to buy their own home,” says a Riverside spokesperson. “The scheme is a big success and people ask ‘What’s the catch?’ Well there isn’t one. We want you to live in the property for five years so you help create sustainable neighbourhoods. That’s part of our mission.

“We improve properties to a mortgageable standard but you will be expected to do some work yourself – mostly decorating. That’s part of the deal and buyers are up for it.

“We are about to embark on some exciting refurbishment schemes in Kensington so have a look on the website for more details. We will be knocking two terraced houses into one to create spacious, modern living with great design. Prices will be very affordable for first time buyers.”

We think so! The scheme seems to work on

My husband and I have found a house we are interested in, however it's right near a plot of land that looks primed for development. Should the agent be giving information about nearby schemes if they may affect the value of the property in the future, or are there some checks I should carry out myself?

Q

Erica H, Allerton “I’m sure if the estate agent was aware of any developments in the area they would be able to tell you, however they simply might not know.

Plans for all new developments that need planning permission are made public by the council and can be found on your local council's gov.uk website. Obviously your solicitor will help you find out all this information too. I would say in general any new development is probably to the benefit rather than the detriment of the area, this could vary though depending on the type of development so the estate agent will be able to help guide you as to whether this would have an effect on your house purchase and any future value”.

A

I’m thinking of buying a new build. I’ve heard it is possible in some cases to have a say in the décor and design of the property as it is being built/completed. Is this true?

Q

Carly W, Liverpool 5 “It is very rare that developers enable the customer to have a say in the actual external design of the property due to the restrictions of planning permissions. Once a new development has been given the green light by planning authorities, it is usually the case that the individual property designs will have already been finalised.

However, there are various ways customers can personalise the interior of their new home, especially if they reserve the property early. By getting their reservation in before the construction of the property is complete, customers can put their own stamp on their new home by choosing preferred kitchen units, work surfaces and tiles free of charge from a selected range.

They can also choose to pay for additional upgrades such as granite worktops, an integrated dishwasher and laminate flooring”.

A

I have a full time job but I have recently started to do some occasional work for a friend, on an ad hoc basis. I earn £20,000 in my full time role and will earn approximately £4,000 a year from my ‘second job’. Do I have to pay tax on the second job since I pay a lot on my full time job?

Q

M Waters, Crosby “Sadly the answer is a definite yes. If your friend has already set you up as an employee, then you should be taxed at basic rate (20%) on the £4,000 of earnings via Pay As You Earn, but at least will not need to pay any National Insurance as the income is beneath the annual threshold of £7,748. If your friend is operating payroll as he should, then HMRC will very quickly be aware of this income following the recent introduction of RTI (Real Time Information) reporting.

“Depending on the terms of your work for your friend it could be that you could treat the arrangement as self-employment, which would give you more scope to offset expenses related to your work (mileage for example)”.

On a number of occasions the company was asked by clients to carry out more intensive clearance work.

The demand for the new branch of the business has also led to the employment of an additional member of staff for the team.

According to George, landlords often overlook the need for more indepth cleaning in situations where a property may have hazardous germs ingrained in them, and often only send in domestic cleaners.

He says: “The work we do is nothing like the work of regular cleaners, and our services are used by local authorities, solicitors, housing associations, estate agents, undertakers and the general public.”

Starter homes selling fast at Speakman Gardens Taylor Wimpey has released a block of apartments to meet the demand from first-time buyers at its Speakman Gardens development in Prescot.

The housebuilder is now offering these homes under the government backed Help to Buy scheme, where eligible purchasers can get a 20% equity loan, meaning they only need to pay a deposit of 5% and secure a 75% mortgage.

Lynne Vogel, regional sales manager for Taylor Wimpey North West, says: “Sales at Speakman Gardens have been phenomenal these past few weeks. We’re delighted to be offering the new Help to Buy scheme on site, making it easier for young people to secure an

affordable mortgage and get their first foot on the property ladder.”

The new two-bedroom Hayle and Kingsbridge apartments include an open plan kitchen/dining/living room, a main bathroom, plus the master bedroom has the luxury of an ensuite. There is also allocated parking.

Apartments start at £89,995 or £71,996 with Help to Buy, which equates to mortgage payments of £282.69 per month.

Speakman Gardens is ideally located in popular Eccleston, just a short walk from the high street shops of Prescot.

The only problem is you don’t have a massive deposit and you’ve got no chance of saving one because you’ve got to pay rent. It’s a catch 22 situation if ever there was one. However, buying a new build could be the answer to your problems, here’s why:

Y

deposit is required (especially if you want to get a decent rate on your mortgage). With average house prices in Liverpool currently standing at £119,102 (according to the Land Registry), a 20% deposit will set you back almost £24,000.

With new-builds there are a whole host of schemes on offer which reduce the amount you have to put down. Help to Buy, for example, allows borrowers to put down just 5% of the value of the property and borrower a further 20% in an interest-free loan from the government – thus giving them access to 75% LTV mortgages.

YOU WON’T HAVE TO DO ANY REFURBISHMENTS YOU WON’T NEED MUCH OF A DEPOSIT The deposit is the biggest barrier for most would-be homeowners to overcome. While some lenders are introducing 90% and 95% loan-to-value (LTV) mortgages back into their ranges, for the most part a 15% or even 20%

If you’re struggling to save for a deposit, chances are you’re not going to have a pot of cash at your disposal to do any refurbishment work. Buying an old property is all well and good but often there’s quite of bit of work that needs doing in order to get them up to standard. Without a hefty sum set aside for this you’re going to find it difficult. With new-

builds you won’t have this problem.

YOU GET A SAY ON THE DESIGN If you move into a property that has already been lived in you’re likely to find the previous owners’ taste is not quite to your liking. While you may like light and neutral, the vendor may have been a big fan of floral carpets and artex ceilings – meaning you have to spend the time and the money redecorating.

With many new builds you’ll get the chance to have a say in the décor of the property as it’s being built.

IT’S FUSS-FREE The majority of problems that arise during the property-buying process involve the dreaded property chain. For example, the vendor (the person selling the house) may have to pull out of the deal because the house they were hoping to buy is no longer available and as such they’re unable to move – meaning you’re unable to move! Buying a new-build removes all the stress a property chain can bring.

ARE YOU A DEVELOPER? Don’t forget the Your Move Property Awards now has a category dedicated to new builds. For more information on how to enter the Best New Build Home category visit www.yourmovepropertyawards.co.uk.

GETTING TO KNOW THE PROPERTY PROFESSIONALS

5

MINUTES WITH...

PAMELA LAIDLAW head of operations, Hugo James Property

MY FIRST WITH CAROLYN ANDERSON sales manager, Beech Estates CAR A purple Mini, which cost £250 and I loved it. It took me everywhere and never let me down.

JOB What does your job entail?

My job is extremely demanding. As well as overseeing the busy Hugo James Property office, I deal with all aspects of property management from liaising with landlords, collecting and arranging rent payments, as well as arrears chasing and dealing with repair issues for tenants. Each day is completely different.

What’s your favourite thing about your job?

I enjoy meeting new people. We deal with many people from varied walks of life and different cultures, including students, working professionals and people on benefits.

What’s your least favourite thing? I enjoy all aspects of my job, but I would say my least favourite only occurs when we do not have sufficient stock to meet the demand, because of our high turnover of lettings.

If you weren’t in property management what would you be doing? That’s a hard question, I’ve been in the property industry for over 12 years now and it is part of my life so I’ve never really thought of another career track.

What are you going to do straight after this interview? Straight after the interview, I will be attending the monthly Liverpool PIN meeting at the Village Hotel in Whiston where I will be delivering an update on recent news within the lettings industry.

FORTNIGHT IN NUMBERS...

65% This is the percentage of affordable housing scheme purchases that were made by first time buyers over the last year. The statistic is according to the latest Halifax Affordable Housing Review, which also showed that 40% of all house purchases were made by first time buyers during the same period.

With the exception of Saturday jobs, it was working as a nanny in London, which at the time was my dream job, with a family who I am still in contact with today.

HOLIDAY I really can’t remember, but I would have to say it would have been in St Ives, Cornwall, where we used to go every year as children.

It was always a great adventure getting up in the early hours to make the six-hour journey there.

RECORD Terry Jacks’ ‘Seasons in the Sun’, which gives away my age somewhat!

Early start to check emails, respond to clients and set up the day ahead.

8:45AM

We have a team meeting with the branch manager to go through yesterday’s performance, highlight any missed opportunities and set the day’s targets.

9.00AM

I spend much of the morning dealing with applicant feedback from the previous day’s viewings, negotiating the numerous offers I get and dealing with the incoming calls to the branch.

1:00PM

My afternoon is spent out on viewings, I block out either a morning or afternoon for these on alternate days.

3.30PM

When I get back to the office I call back any messages and emails that have come in while I’ve been out.

4:00PM

Call out for mortgage appointments and market appraisals.

5:00PM

I chase any work on my to do list which I have not managed to complete, and write my lists for the next day.

Finally I finish the day with a one to one with the branch manager.

THE UPS AND DOWNS

£168,941 This is the current value of a typical UK home, according to the latest Nationwide figures. The data shows that UK house prices increased by 0.3% in June and increased by 1.9% since this time last year – accelerating at the fastest pace since September 2010.

8,500 The number of residential valuers currently registered in the UK. RICS released the figure, countering fears that homebuyers’ transactions have been jeopardised in some parts of the country due to insufficient numbers of property valuers.

Following the Liverpool launch of their debut album, ‘On’, we chatted to guitarist Neil Campbell to get the low-down on Bulbs, Liverpool’s exciting new band. With an impressive back catalogue of projects, this new line-up features an eclectic use of sound and powerful visuals, making them a band not to be side-stepped in 2013.

INTERVIEW BY TILLY MARTIN Are you excited about the album which has just launched? Yes, absolutely! We’ve been working on the album for about a year and a half. We released little excerpts of the tracks through social media in the lead up to the launch.

You screened a film by artist Sonny Phillips, alongside the album launch performance. Would you say the band is as much about the visual as it is about the music? I think the music suggests your own sort of film, in a way.

Halfway through the first year, Marty [Snape, electronics], joined the band; and the film is heavily coordinated with the electronics, so we can synchronise the two.

We’re mainly an instrumental band and the music is composed in quite a fixed way (like in classical music).

The film and the music are very closely synchronised. It’s quite detailed. It’s not just about one single thing.

You and the other bands members all have different musical and performance roots. What brought you

all together? We’ve all got our own influences, from classical music through to progressive rock, through to electronic and dance music. All sorts of things!

We all really want to get to a point where people open their eyes to a different experience of the world, by providing them with lots of very rich experiences, including the visual concepts as well as the music.

There are so many different sounds working together on the album. Was it a matter of trial and error?

We wanted to experiment and try new ideas out; to hear what it would sound like pairing different things together. The music itself has a number of recurring themes and several layers working simultaneously, which will give the audience lots of information. We want to create a completely immersive experience for our audience, so we need a big sound and informational content, like speech samples.

The album starts quite sedately but soon kicks in with a rockier edge. The music is constructed to bring ideas back in subtle ways to the listener. It’s more than music you can get after one listen; it has layers of structure that you can analyse more deeply if you want to.

We’ve aimed to cover bold concepts like ‘who really rules the world?’, and ideas

about artificial intelligence. But the experimentation is contained and it doesn’t interfere with the audience enjoying the music. It’s still danceable!

Being from Liverpool yourselves, would you say it’s a good starting place for up-and-coming bands?

Liverpool’s a very musical city with the Beatles, and a lot of other great bands, but I think it can also be quite conservative. I think we’re coming out of that though.

As a city it is full of creative bursts and eccentric people who want to do different things and don’t really want to fit into a specific scene, which is great! What we’re trying to do is a bit different too.

Will the band be playing any festivals over the summer? At the moment we’re concentrating on the album launch and getting more exposure but we have some things coming up in the autumn which we will announce on our website.

After the launch at Capstone Theatre, what’s next for the band?

We’re releasing the album ourselves but it’s going to be distributed through a range of progressive rock distributors. We’re also keen for other artists to remix and make new songs out of what we have done.

In the end we’re hoping to reach a worldwide market. We are a Liverpool band but our outlook is global.

••• HOW TO MAINTAIN GUTTERS AND DRAINS ••• BE VIGILANT Don’t let costly drainage problems wash away your funds. Look out for problems emerging by making sure your water is flowing freely from taps and showers, and clear debris from the gutters and drains around the outside of your home.

MAINTAIN YOUR GUTTERS AND DRAINS Prevention is key when it comes to drainage.

Safely ensure that guttering is free from debris and make sure it isn’t damaged and is correctly aligned. Also, be sensible when it

comes to waste disposal and get rid of rubbish in the correct manner rather than flushing items or pouring food waste down the sink.

SEEK EXPERT HELP If you do discover that it’s too late to fix the issue yourself, call in the experts such as Homesure Building and Property Maintenance who can carry out drainage work. You may need help to safely clear gutters or solve damaged drain issues, and carrying out the job correctly may stop further issues from occurring in the future.

Best for...

SUMMER MENU Now that the sun is finally showing its face we can’t wait to enjoy the taste of summer. With many restaurants mixing up their menus using an abundance of summery fruit and vegetables we located the ones that really whet our appetites.

REFRESHING RAMEN Wagamama, Paradise Street With an award-winning series of restaurants across seventeen countries, this Japaneseinspired eatery is offering a selection of new dishes all tossed onto a bed of salad. The leafy treats are the perfect way to refresh your palette after a long hot day. And their new fruit juices really capture the essence of summer.

ZAAFFRAN RESTAURANT & BAR 133-135 Allerton Road, L18 2DD

BEST OF BRITISH 60 Hope Street, Hope Street The family owned restaurant’s new summer menu holds only the finest of British ingredients. With its contemporary interior and elegance, it is a great place to dine as you watch the sun go down.

SUNNY DELIGHTS Elevator Bar & Food, Parliament Street Set in the city’s trendy Baltic Triangle district, Elevator Bar is sure to brighten up any evening with its bustling social atmosphere and programme of live entertainment. Sit back and relax with delights from the menu, such as the vegetarian or meat summer platters combining a mix of fresh flavours from the sunshine season.

I love Indian food. I’ve probably tasted 50% of the kormas in Liverpool and think of myself as a sort of connoisseur; so I was surprised to learn that actually, I know very little about real Indian food.

I came to Zaaffran expecting just a meal, but I left with a new insight into the cuisine thanks to the knowledgeable owner.

“We don’t serve onions with the poppadoms,” he told me. “It ruins your palette before your meal.”

The interior is modern and cosy. Entertainment is authentic with Indian music videos playing on the TV behind the bar. The ingredients are personally sourced to ensure only the highest quality produce is used in the dishes.

First came the chutneys and poppadoms (£2.25).

Made fresh and from scratch, we had a choice of three, a tangy mango, mild mint yoghurt and a spicy

REVIEW BY REBECCA HATCH

pickle. I didn't find I missed the onions; the mixture of flavours was a perfect balance.

Next came the starter.

We only specified that we’d like something with chicken so it was a surprise when four different mountainous dishes arrived.

The presentation was flamboyant and the meat amazingly tender and juicy.

We were served: chicken 65 (£5.95), a spicy sticky dish; murg malai tikka (£6.95) a soft cheese-based marinade with Indian spices; chicken tikka Zaaffrani (£5.95), a house take on the classic; and chicken majestic (£5.95) a tasty moreish dish with crushed peanuts. All were extremely delicious but my dining partner and I ended up arguing over the last of the chicken majestic, it was sublime.

Already feeling extremely well-fed we then moved onto our mains. Not

that we dislike spicy food, but we’d made clear in conversation that we appreciated the milder flavours and so we were treated to chicken korma (£10.95) and murgh makhanwala (£10.95), which came with boiled basmati (£2.75) and garlic naan (2.95). The korma did not disappoint. Though korma has a tendency to end up bland, I'm pleased to say this version was bursting with flavour. The murgh makhanwala was equally as delicious, the chicken, again was juicy and tender. The garlic naan was tasty and filling and well with the fragrant rice which was well cooked and plentiful.

I can't fault much about Zaaffran. It had a lot to live upto given my vast experience of Indian restaurants, but I'm glad to say I have found a new option for my Saturday night treats.

BAVARIAN SUNSHINE F

undraisers across Merseyside and beyond have been rallying support for two-year old Amelia-Mae Davies, who is battling with the childhood cancer neuroblastoma.

Mum Angela, originally from Wirral, and dad Stewart Davies are desperate to raise £250,000 to fly their little girl to America for treatment and provide her with the best chance of growing up.

Amelia-Mae was diagnosed with the aggressive form of cancer last September, just two days after her second birthday, and has since been receiving treatment. However the long term survival rate for children

with neuroblastoma is less than 40% and, for the best chance of beating the illness for good, Amelia-Mae’s parents want her to receive immunotherapy treatment and prevent her against further attacks of the disease.

So far, around £100,000 has been raised for the family, thanks to generous donations and fundraising events, but the family is still in need of help to reach the target.

For more information about Amelia-Mae’s plea and how you can show support, log on to www.justgiving.com/TheAmelia-Mae-Appeal

Liverpool’s very own slice of Bavaria – the Bierkeller - is now inviting visitors to make the most of the summer sunshine in its outdoor area.

The Liverpool ONE drinking and dining hotspot has expanded outdoors to the facia of the site after enjoying a successful first six months in the city.

With a fine selection of draught German beers served in steins, waiting staff in traditional clothing and hot authentic

regional food, the entertainment complex has proven to be a welcome addition to the city’s bars and pubs offering.

The former Zeligs Restaurant unit now houses three venues in one, including the Round the World Bar, Shooters Sports Bar and the main Bierkeller room, and the positive response to the venue is also allowing an increase in staff numbers.

General manager Dave Howarth says: “We knew Liverpool was a great party city, but had no idea that we would be literally ran off our feet.

“Our age range and clientele is so diverse. From young football fans to beer connoisseur in their 80s making use of the range of over 100 beers on site.”

TURN BACK TIME AT MINKSY'S Want to look years younger without injections or going under the knife? Well Minsky’s in Liverpool may have the answer.

The Bold Street based salon has now introduced galvanic spa treatments to its offering, and owner Peter Edwards says the beauty technique “basically rolls back the years” with its gentle process.

By using a machine which looks like an electric razor, the treatment is said to “infuse into the skin and lock into the DNA” to provide a non-intrusive facelift, and the client feels nothing more than a gentle tingle.

With the treatment already popular in Europe Peter, who recommends at least three sessions to those who try it, adds: “We’ve only had it here for around two

weeks and those who have had it done love it.”

Minsky’s is currently offering the anti-ageing method on facial areas, arms and hands and “bingo wings,” and the salon is eventually hoping to provide treatments to the flat body.

For more information and to book a session, call Minsky’s on 0151 701 4010.

ALBUM REVIEW

MILES KANE

DON'T FORGET WHO YOU ARE

The cover of ‘Don’t Forget Who You Are’ sees Britain’s best dressed pop star standing in front of his mum’s butchers shop in St. Johns Market and whilst Oasis don't play together anymore and both John Lennon and Marc Bolan are no longer with us, their influences are found all over Kane's latest album.

‘Taking Over’ opens the album and, with its fuzzing guitar and glam stomp, is reminiscent of Bolan's Ride a White Swan, as is the title track with its ‘la la la’ chorus.

Produced by the Lightning Seeds' Ian Broudie, and featuring a stellar contributing cast of Paul Weller and Andy Partridge of XTC, this album certainly moves at a pace and you're very quickly listening to the ‘Jealous Guy’ type piano on ‘Out of Control’ which sees Miles sounding unbelievably like John Lennon.

The great thing about this album is that even though with a great cast list, and moving from 1960's beat pop through glam rock and on to the 90’s Brit pop, this is definitely Miles Kane.

LENNON ROYAL COURT LIVERPOOL, 23 AUG – 14 SEPT Cast frontman John Power will step into the role of another Liverpool music icon, when he makes his theatre debut in Lennon this summer.

The hit musical by Bob Eaton will return to the city, and tells the story of the Beatle legend’s life from Woolton Church Fete to New York, stopping off in Hamburg and The Cavern along the way.

Playing the role of the older John Lennon, singer and guitarist John will act as the narrator in the show, which has previously had successful runs at Broadway and the West End. For tickets go to www.royalcourtliverpool.co.uk.

Music Creamfields Daresbury, 23-25 August Creamfields is gearing up for its 15th year and if the look of the line-up is anything to go by, the celebrations will be nothing short of spectacular.

Heavyweights of the electronic music world will be descending on this popular festival as organisers plan to make it the biggest yet.

The Prodigy will be headlining

the three-day event with their only UK performance this summer, and will be joined by the likes of Cream legends Paul Oakenfold and Paul van Dyke, hitmaker David Guetta, Groove Armada, Annie Mac, Tiësto, Pete Tong, Knife Party and more.

My favourite with...

SIMON RIMMER Merseyside TV chef Simon Rimmer had already cooked up a storm of success with two restaurants, but he’s now a household name as co-presenter of Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch. 2013 has shown no sign of things slowing down for Simon as he’s released his fifth cookery book; he’s about to open his first Liverpool restaurant in the new Double Tree by Hilton hotel and he’ll be the latest big name to take part in the city’s ‘In Conversation’ event. He took time out of his busy summer schedule to tell us some of his favourite things…

Favourite thing about Liverpool:

The Liver Buildings - seeing them still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

Favourite musician:

Ian McCulloch - I've got to know him well over the years and he still has the ability to excite and terrify me in equal measure!

Favourite venue:

The Philharmonic pub - I know it's not known as a music venue but I once stumbled upon a gig by George Melly there; I wasn't particularly a fan of his music but it was certainly one of the best gigs I've ever attended.

Favourite holiday destination:

New York - I've been there 15 times now and every time I find something brand new. Absolutely adore the place.

Favourite moment in your career:

March 2013 - when I got the opportunity to cook with one of my heroes, Kenny Dalglish, in my restaurant Earle.

Favourite book:

Favourite album:

'Reckoning', REM's second album - I saw the tour of this album, it was me and 53 other people at Leicester Uni and at the end Michael Stipe sang 'Moon River' through a mega phone!

A Walk Among The Tombstones by Laurence Block - I DEVOUR crime fiction!

Favourite film:

Midnight Express - I'm not much of a film buff but I do love that film.

SEE SIMON RIMMER...

In Conversation with Simon Rimmer will take place on 30 July in the Concert Room of St George’s Hall. To book tickets visit www.littleatomproductions.com.
