On yer bike – it’s great! TONY GIBB OF FULL GAS BIKES EXPLAINS WHY HE IS A BIG FAN OF YORKSHIRE’S CYCLING REVOLUTION. ony Gibb was a professional cyclist for 15 years, winning world and national titles. He is now a commentator and presenter for Eurosport, and the owner of Full Gas Bikes and Full Gas Cycling events. He splits his time between London and Sheffield and is pretty sure the cycling in Yorkshire beats London hands down. “Well, I know one thing for sure.” he says. “Yorkshire is fast becoming the centre of cycling in the UK and, if it carries on like this, soon, the world! “First, the Tour de France, which was simply outstanding. At the time, friends of mine in France said: ‘hey, stop trying to steal our race!’. The crowds were out of this world and, for me, that was the day I fell in love with Yorkshire and the reason we opened the first Full Gas Bikes at Fox Valley, Stocksbridge. Next up, the Tour de Yorkshire – a legacy event following on from the success of the Tour visit. A race that was an instant hit with the riders, albeit one of the hardest races on their calendar

due to the terrain. The race gets bigger and better each year and I am so excited about this year’s edition, not least because the final stage finished right outside Full Gas Bikes’ front door! “And to cap it all, the 2019 World Road Championships have just been awarded to Yorkshire! A week-long festival of races, which will visit every part of the county! “Being a southerner (sorry!), all I can say is that the scenery and cycling here is simply breathtaking. “Yes, it’s hard, yes, its hilly – but it is so worth it once you get to the top and see all the amazing views. There are so many great events to ride and all of the above races have support rides for everyone from families with kids, through to the serious sportive rider wanting to test themselves over the same terrain as the professional riders. “So, what are you waiting for? Get the bike out, fill your lungs with some fresh Yorkshire air and take in the stunning views. I know from experience, it’s well worth it.”

TRAVEL

The Matterhorn

TOUR DE FORCE

CHRIS WILSON STAYS ON THE MOVE BY TRAIN, BUS AND BOAT TO SEE THE SIGHTS IN SWITZERLAND. hatever happened to the Grand Tour? Back in the 17th century, wealthy English gentlemen would spend several months travelling across Europe, accruing knowledge and purchasing beautiful antiques and carpets to furnish their country estates back home. Nowadays, even if budgets are not an issue, we tend to settle for a single location. Unpack, head for the pool, and return home a fortnight later, several shades darker but no wiser. It’s a habit that has not gone unnoticed among our continental cousins. As I checked in to one hotel for a single night’s stay on a whistlestop tour of Switzerland, my host was vexed about the holiday habits of the archetypal Brit abroad. “Why do you stay in one place? You should see more of the country you are staying in,” I was told. I didn’t need the lecture; she was preaching to the converted. Have suitcase on wheels will travel…that’s my motto. Mind you, it does make it a lot easier when the country you are visiting is Switzerland, where the trains, buses and boats always run on time and itineraries can be planned with total confidence. Just to make the travel easier, you can buy

a Swiss Pass for unlimited travel on eight consecutive days on railways, boats and most alpine postbuses, covering a network of 16,000km. The Swiss Pass also allows a half price reduction on all privately owned funicular and mountain railways and free entrance to 450 museums. It really is the ultimate ticket to ride. On arrival at Zurich airport, it was a short stroll to the adjoining railway station and half an hour by train to the sleepy town of Kusnacht and the Romantik Seehotel Sonne. Dating back to 1641, the picturesque location on Lake Zurich was mesmerising and the hotel’s private bathing area was irresistible on a scorching July day. The water was crystal clear – very refreshing and with nothing but the occasional steam boat gliding by to make ripples on the water – and a quick dip was Grimsel Hospiz

the perfect way to unwind. Dinner on the terrace, watching the sun set and the lights from small towns across the bay start to twinkle, added to my sense of wellbeing. Food and wine, I realised, was going to be a major plus point. Throughout the tour I ate incredibly well on outstanding local produce including home-smoked salmon, veal, river fish and berries. The wine, meanwhile, was a revelation. It is produced in all 26 Cantons, although not in sufficient volume that you are likely to find it imported to your local supermarket. So, make the most of it: many patriotic bars and restaurants stock only Swiss wines, and that is no hardship when the choice includes creamy sparkling Cremands, flinty Rieslings and smooth rich Merlots. After that first night, I awakened to a ridiculously perfect chocolate-box view of mountains, lake, blue skies and fluffy clouds. So I checked out with some sadness, but I had an itinerary to follow and a series of trains, boats and buses to catch. The next few days passed in a blur of activity with fresh highlights around every corner. Whatever our mode of transport, the views were amazing and if some, even for

TRAVEL

first time visitor, were eerily familiar, it might have been because some of Switzerland’s most picturesque scenery is much loved by TV and film location scouts. So, at various times, we found ourselves in the same spot as some of fiction’s most memorable action scenes involving legendary heroes and villains. On one train journey through the Beernese Oberland region, we found ourselves looking up at the Reichenbach Falls, where Sherlock Holmes and his arch rival Professor Moriarty fought and perished in a dramatic death plunge onto the rocks below… until a disapproving public demanded that logic be defied and Holmes was resurrected in a later story. Perhaps the most spectacular hotel on our tour was the Grimsel Hospiz, perched at 2000m in the middle of bleakly beautiful rocky landscape on the turquoise waters of an artificial lake which is built on top of a hydro-electric dam. We travelled by train and bus, then the hotel’s mini bus took us through the dizzying steep mountain roads. It came as no surprise to learn that James Bond and Blofeld had battled it out on these very same twisting roads in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. The hotel is accessible only by cable car in winter and is so remote that skiing is too dangerous. People come to revel in the luxurious hotel and watch the scenery. This being high summer, we simply drove on a road blasted through the rock, arriving at our mountain retreat not quite able to believe our eyes. Don’t miss those views, but also don’t miss the wine cellar of which the owners are rightly proud. A more sedate mode of arrival, though just as exciting in its own way, is the steam boat to Lucerne, which is worth a walking tour for its hidden alleys, teeming town squares and beautifully preserved 13th century city walls. Summer in Switzerland means there are, of course, mountains to climb, and it was appropriate that we ended our truncated version of the Grand Tour in Zermatt, the town that started it all. The Matterhorn dominates the view here and there are wonderful summer walks for all levels of fitness.

The Reichenback Falls

However, if you simply want to take in the view, there is a train up to Gornergat at an altitude of 3,089m. We were staying at the Monte Rosa hotel, which was the mountaineering base of Edward Whymper, the man who made the first successful ascent of the Matterhorn. Legend has it that Queen Victoria disapproved of such dangerous leisure pursuits and pronounced that it must stop. To anyone with a remotely rebellious taste for adventure this was just the incentive needed – and hardy hikers have been coming to Zermatt to tackle the Matterhorn and the less challenging lower ranges ever since. Zermatt is a quirky town. Local farmers still drive their goats down the main street every day, but the glitzy bars and restaurants are testament to the fact that this is one of Switzerland’s most fashionable resorts, winter and summer. But while the town may be buzzing the one thing you won’t hear is the roar of the internal combustion engine. Cars are banned, although you can always find an electric buggy at the station to transport you and your luggage to the hotel. And that seems a suitably strange final stop on this truncated version of the Grand Tour.

WEDDINGS

YOUR WEDDING, YOUR WAY WILL YOUR BIG DAY BE TRADITIONALLY WHITE OR WILD AND WACKY? RACHEL MARTIN HAS GOT SOME IDEAS… ecent years have seen brides-to-be go crazy for shabby chic and eclectically bright weddings, and, as we greet 2017, its clear couples are much more interested in going down the aisle their own way. Your wedding should represent your style and personality, and, while there are many thousands of themes to choose from, we’ve rounded up some ultra-romantic inspiration - from rustic chic to gilded glam - to help you find your wedding style.

R

FESTIVAL If you want a wedding that’s entertainment-focused, informal and all about fun, food and flower crowns then a festival-themed wedding is perfect for you. More and more couples are holding festival weddings – many stretching their celebrations out over a whole weekend, with guests camping at the festival site. From live music and performance to delicious food and drink, festival style nuptials throw the rulebook away in terms of format and allow a bride and groom to really express their personalities. And, if your guest list is large, it’s a great way to make the most of your budget and still give the guests a great time.

Metallic

Eco Chic

Metallic is the new black, or white in the wedding world, with trending tones including silver, copper and rose quartz. Named Pantone’s colour of the year 2016, the blush-hued metallic isn't just for jewellery, it's a softer way to incorporate sparkle and works well when mixed with a light colour palette – making it the perfect colour to accent an outdoor spring affair. With the right (light) touch, subtle metallics can transform invitations, place settings, and even flowers from understated details to sublime showpieces.

With the abundance of locally sourced cuisine, organic wines, and repurposed materials available, couples can reduce their carbon footprints without reducing style. Easy trades, like swapping plastic for biodegradable dishes and new jewelry for used and borrowed items, can dramatically reduce the waste output (not to mention expenses) of a big occasion. For couples looking to infuse a little “globetrotting philanthropist” flair, consider booking a glamping honeymoon, or invite your guests to make a charity donation in lieu of gifts.

WEDDINGS

Botanical

Seaside Whether inspired by soft golden sands or an afternoon spent sailing, let your love for the ocean inspire your destination or nautical themed wedding. Picture pastel colours, a beautiful arch in front of the ocean, and the sound of waves lapping against the shore as you say your “I dos”. You may not be lucky enough to consider a destination wedding, but that doesn’t mean you can’t bring the beach to you. Deep oranges and pinks paired with large and bright tropical foliage, like White Star and Bismarkia, will give the event an exotic feel. And why not go all out and kick off your shoes - barefoot is where it’s at for this wedding theme.

A twist on the much-loved rustic theme, this trend can be a beautiful choice. Fill your reception room with foliage, berries and fur cones, and, for the nature lovers out there, a wooden arch decorated with wildflowers. This is also a great way to make your wedding seasonal, as you’ll be taking inspiration from your surroundings. Think handpicked-style bouquets and wooden stump table centres, topped with tea lights and flowers in little bottles. Candle lanterns also create a mysterious atmosphere, and strings of fairy lights hanging from a big ol’ tree are super romantic and high impact (just don’t forget the bug spray).

Art Deco This popular theme is showing no signs of going anywhere anytime soon. Popularised by Downton Abbey and The Great Gatsby, the 1920’s are a constant source of wedding inspiration. Whether you go all-out and amp up the atmosphere with vintage-inspired gown, posh getaway car and venue, or just let it influence your decor, this is the ultimate glamorous scheme.

VINTAGE MINIMALISM Brides-to-be are turning to clean lines, simple florals, and understated décor as a respite from the oversaturation of wedding customizations. Green and white accents are all you need for a romantic atmosphere, while a simple wedding dress offers a chic counterpoint to the crystal-heavy ballgown.

Winter Wonderland A winter wonderland motif allows you to recreate the magic of the frosty season, no matter what the climate is like outside. Dangling crystals, frosted branches, white florals, glowing candles and even fake snow can all help you evoke the feel of an elegant wintertime wedding.

Fantasy

The vintage wedding trend is still going strong and it’s no surprise - there’s just something oh-so-romantic about adding old-worn items and antiques to your big day. Many couples opt to include family heirlooms within the décor, giving a personal touch to their retro wedding. Love vintage but crave a bit more edge? Crank things up to eleven with a rockabilly or disco-themed extravaganza, featuring kitschy décor, funky desserts and a live band.

BOHO

If you have a passion for something very particular, whether it’s Harry Potter, video games, Alice in Wonderland or zombies – why not make it your theme? What wedding guest wouldn’t love to be immersed in a fantasy vision for the day?

Characterized by details like unfinished wood, Mason jars, lanterns, twine and natural colors, the rustic boho theme brings a warm and down-to-earth vibe to any wedding. A repurposed barn is the ideal setting, and, a luxurious medley of eclectic global and woodland motifs define the romantic luxe style. Rich, jewel-tone organza and lacy, floral-inspired table covers create an exquisite backdrop for mercury glass vessels, gilded candle holders, beaded chandeliers and abundant florals nestled in lush natural mosses. Surround yourself in the warm white glow of candlelight, fairy light, and draping curtains to complete this opulent look

30 years of success CUSTOMERS JOIN THE CELEBRATIONS AS LESLEY AND HER TEAM AT NEW IMAGE CELEBRATE THEIR ANNIVERSARY. ew Image held an event to celebrate their 30th anniversary. It was great to see so many customers – old and new – some of whom, have shopped with the boutique continuously for the past 30 years. Customers enjoyed up to 30% off winter stock. We asked owner Lesley Taylor what her recipe for success is. “You will find a wonderful collection of stylish casual clothes on the ground floor for ladies who like to be different. “The business has experienced many changes over the years, but our dedication to sourcing quality clothing, together with a team that delivers excellent customer service, has ensured New Image celebrated its 30th anniversary.” Marking the start of their 30th anniversary event on 14 December, customers enjoyed up 30 per cent off – and New Image’s winter sale will continue well into 2017. Whether you are a new or old customer, you will be well-received by a dedicated team at New Image. Stocking merchandise customers enjoy wearing and a very friendly environment, with excellent customer service and after care, it is no wonder this long-standing business is still thriving. The store has already received several deliveries of new spring/summer collections including Condici and Ronald Joyce motherof-the-bride wear 2017. Lesley and her team are looking forward to mums visiting them to find their perfect outfit, size and preferred colour.

collection of stylish casual clothes can be found on the ground floor. New Image was established by Lesley and her mother, Jean, in December 1986. It was originally a small shop based at 279 Middlewood Road, selling quality fashionable ladies clothing and providing tanning rooms on the first floor. In February 1989, New Image was extended and moved to 277 Middlewood Road. The new shop opened under Lesley’s ownership in September. 2007 saw the whole building renovated to make room for a luxurious upstairs area to accommodate special occasion wear. Looking to the future, New Image staff members Deborah McHale, Amanda Glaves, and Barbara Smart welcome Beverley Dearn, previously from special occasionwear store Carols The store benefits from amazing seamstresses, Margaret Telford and Lisa Brothers, who are always available to ensure that perfect fit. Milliner Darcie Mae also makes regular visits and is happy to help customers find a hat that suits them or to discuss designing and creating a fabulous bespoke headpiece. Appointments are advisable at busy times from January 2017 (particularly on Saturdays), so we are fully staffed and able to give you a fabulous shopping experience.

ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS ‘I CHANGED MY WHOLE LIFE WITH THE HELP OF G&M HEALTHCARE’, SAYS KERRY HARRIS WHO SHED AN AMAZING SEVEN STONE WITH THEIR HELP. f you had told me at the beginning of the year that 2016 would be the year I lost weight, I wouldn't have believed you.” Kerry Harris had struggled with body and self-confidence issues for many years, often yo-yo dieting and attempting to lose weight but always going back to old habits. But when the strains of carrying the extra weight began to affect her family life, it became impossible to ignore. “Before I started Alevere, I hated my body. My weight was beginning to affect my confidence and was making me feel very unhappy in all aspects of my life. I stopped doing activities I loved, spending time with my children and avoided situations where I felt my weight would be judged.” Stepping on the scales left Kerry feeling low, but it also gave her the determination she needed to tackle her weight problem head on. “I hadn’t weighed myself for years. I imagined I would weigh about 13-14 stone, so when the scales told me I was 17st 6.5lbs I couldn’t believe it. “I had seen advertisements for G&M Healthcare with Alevere and decided I was going to give it a try. I was so sceptical to begin with, since I had always been trying to lose weight - I remembered how exhausting it was trying to find the perfect diet plan or weight loss ‘trick’.” Combining high quality, flavoursome foods and state of the art ultrasound technology, it was the maintenance stage of the Alevere programme that Kerry found most difficult. But, under strict medial supervision, she soon realised how important it was to enabling her to manage her weight long term. “The fast rate of weight loss kept me motivated and the therapy sessions gave me the support I needed to stay on track and help me understand more about my relationship with food.” So far, Kerry has lost over seven stone and uses her own weight loss as a tool to spur herself on. “As the weight came off, I could not believe how good I felt and how different I looked. I lost almost seven stone in 21 weeks and I feel amazing. “Seeing the weight come off gave me

encouragement to keep going and I now feel that I know how to eat properly. The plan has taught me to think about what I am putting into my body.” Like everyone, Kerry has hit the occasional rut but she says she tries to combat it by switching up her workout routine. "My weight is no longer ruling my life. Before, I let the weight define me and my boundaries. Now, I don't. I make the rules. "I've learned to be patient about the rest of the weight loss," and she reminds others to do the same. "Instead of always being down on yourself for how much more you have to go, look back at all you've already done." Kerry is such a convert to the goals and outcomes of the programme that she has now joined G & M Healthcare as a weight loss therapist, helping to motivate others along their weight loss journeys. @PulseRMC

“All the staff at the clinic were very caring and professional and I wanted to give something back to the programme. It has really helped me and I’m so grateful. “It’s great to see others achieving their goals.” G&M Healthcare is a GP-led clinic in Broomhill, Sheffield. The experts at G&M Healthcare are dedicated to helping people look their best and, with a series of complementary cosmetic treatments on offer, alongside Alevere, clients are truly spoilt for choice.

Winter warmer EVERYONE IS WELCOME AT TANKERSLEY PARK GOLF CLUB, WITH PLENTY OF APPEAL TO START THE NEW YEAR. s we enter a new year, keeping fit and healthy is at the forefront of our minds, but not all of us are dedicated gym bunnies. A brisk walk can do wonders and you may be surprised that there’s a great place to take in some beautiful scenery and fresh air right on our doorstep. Tankersley Park Golf Club are welcoming golfers and walkers alike to experience a fantastic five-mile walk around their gorgeous grounds. And after all that leg-work, why not relax with a drink or bite to eat at their clubhouse? The golf course were proud to recently announce the appointment of their new caterer, Neil and new steward, Tracey. They both joined the team in October and are also bringing a breath of fresh air to the clubhouse. Neil is famous for his wonderful cuisine and homemade bread and soup, along with his pastries and chocolate flapjacks. A brand new, exciting and varied menu has now arrived, whilst two winter food deals are also available for golfers to enjoy. Package one offers a hot drink, a bacon sandwich and an 18-hole game for £18, whilst package two offers the same as one, plus a one-course meal for £25. Whatever the time of year, you are always

guaranteed a warm welcome and a great game at Tankersley Park Golf Club. With a beautifully manicured golf course, casual visitors, small parties, societies and experienced golfers will have a fantastic time and be treated like members for the day. The golf club covers a tract of land with a fascinating and varied history. In the past few centuries it has been an oak forest, a civil war battlefield, a baronial deer park, a coal and ironstone mining area, and even a battle-tank testing ground. Tankersley Park Golf Course was opened in 1907 and was extended to 18 holes in 1924. It was then developed under the expert supervision of golf professional, course designer, green keeper and golfing guru, Arthur Storey. On a few acres of redundant mining spoil and moorland he laid the foundations of a wonderful test of accurate iron play and the rest as they say, is history. With a gorgeous golf course and some fabulous food on offer, Tankersley Park Golf Club is a brilliant destination for both golfers and non-golfers alike this new year.

Send for Sisters s we get into the swing of a new year, our thoughts will soon be turning to giving our homes a good spring clean. And as the saying goes, if there is a job worth doing, it’s worth doing well. So why not bring in the professionals? Sisters Carpet & Sofa Cleaning is a female-owned business that specialises in the professional cleaning and care of carpets and upholstery. Established in 2014 by non-identical twin sisters Caroline Sanson and Christine Elliott, the business covers households, commercial spaces and motorhomes all over Sheffield, Holmfirth, Huddersfield and the surrounding areas. The sisters have worked together since 2002, when Christine valeted campers and motorhomes, whilst Caroline did the administration for their family business. When they decided to start their own venture, it seemed only logical that they do it together using their broad range of skill sets. Both Christine and Caroline are professionally trained to BS PAS 86 standard, are fully insured and undertake continuous training, including regularly attending industry events. Their services include carpets, upholstery, leather, rugs, caravan and motorhome upholstery cleaning, as well as stain removal and stain protection services. If you are looking for a thorough and eco-friendly clean, Sisters Carpet & Sofa Cleaning are the way to go. “Our aim is to deliver a reliable premium service, together with exceptional customer care,” says Caroline. “Here at Sisters we are proud of our thorough cleaning process and attention to detail. We clean to the highest standard every time. “Unlike many other carpet cleaning

A

companies, we are strong believers in the values and benefits of eco-friendly carpet and upholstery cleaning. We use the new generation of cleaning solutions, which are fully biodegradable, wool-safe approved and detergent free. “A significant benefit of these new generation, detergent-free cleaning solutions is that they freely rinse away with cold water, reducing our carbon footprint. “We enjoy meeting our clients and seeing their satisfaction with our fantastic results.” Christine and Caroline pride themselves on their excellent customer service and often go the extra mile for their customers – quite literally – having travelled to properties outside their usual areas when specially requested. The business has a social conscience too. The sisters support local charities and communities wherever possible. As Caroline is a Deepcar resident herself, they were only too happy to clean the carpets at Stocksbridge Community Leisure Centre and St Ann’s Catholic Church in Deepcar free of charge. They have also donated raffle prizes to Oughtibridge Gala, Yorkshire Air Ambulance, Parkinson’s UK and many more. So if you are looking for an ethicallyminded, professional and personal cleaning service, contact Sisters Carpet & Sofa Cleaning today.

DAVID JUETT’S PICTURES:

Pictures on parade LAST MONTH’S NHS PARADE REALLY STRUCK A CHORD WITH PULSE READERS AND HAVE BEEN INUNDATED WITH PLENTY OF MEMORIES AND MORE PICTURES. n our last issue, we looked back at the hospital parades that were held in Ecclesfield, Chapeltown and High Green from the 1890s right up until 1936 to raise funds for Sheffield’s hospitals before the days of the NHS. We asked you to get in touch if you had any further information on these events and two readers came forward. David Juett has lived in Ecclesfield all his life and is a member of the Ecclesfield Archive Group. These photos of a fire engine float, believed to have been taken in either 1926 or 1927, are a brilliant example of the kinds of floats families would create for these events. The photo outside The Arundel pub in Ecclesfield features David’s mother, Mable (maiden name Fisher), on top of the fire engine along with some other local children. His Aunt Kate is stood at the far left with her arms folded. He believes the woman holding the baby is Mrs Adams. The second photo is of his Uncle Arthur (left) and Uncle Bill (right) with the float. He says that all the people living on Enoch Row helped the Fisher family to build it. However,

I

there was a strong rivalry between all the streets in the area. “There was a competition and the judges would go round and award first, second and third to each float,” says David. “The winner would lead the parade. It was a long day. They’d set off in Ecclesfield then head up to Hillsborough. My mum said she remembered it being a hot day especially because she was wearing a plastic mac and wellies.” We also heard from Ray Ashton, whose wife’s grandfather, Frank Greaves, was one of the main collectors for the parade. “Frank was born and lived all his life at 154 The Common,” says Ray. “He took part in many of the hospital parades.

RAY ASHTON’S PICTURES: Frank Greaves in 1911 (left)

Frank with his workmates 38 Pulse | www.pulsemag.co.uk

“Frank also spent his working life as a stove and grate fixer at William Green’s Foundry, where the Morrison’s supermarket now stands.” Here is a photo of him dressed as a gentleman escorting a lady (Tom Foster) to the hospital parade in 1911. In another photo we see Frank (second on the left) holding his daughter, Gladys (Jean’s dad’s sister) and a cannon shaped float. The date and location are unknown. Ray also sent us a photo of Frank (middle, back row) with his workmates, but again the date and names of the other men are unknown. If you have any more information on either of these photos, get in touch and let us know (see details below).

PROMOTION

Peace of mind for the future EXCELLENT VALUE FUNERAL PLANS FROM YOUR LOCAL INDEPENDENT FUNERAL DIRECTOR. n increasing number of people are deciding to make their own funeral plans. This ensures not only that their wishes are respected, but it can also reduce some of the anxiety that their loved ones will feel at the time of loss. If you take out a Funeral Plan with Peace Funerals, you pay at today’s prices for your funeral in the future. This will guarantee that, no matter what happens to inflation, all the funeral director’s costs will be covered in full at the time of the funeral. Increases in other costs that are paid on your behalf by your funeral director called disbursements (such as crematorium, or cemetery fees, doctor’s fees and newspaper costs), will be covered up to the level of the Consumer Price Index increases. So whether your funeral takes place in 12 months, or 30 years, there is nothing more to pay for the funeral director’s services you have chosen. When you take out a Peace Funerals Plan, the payment that you make is paid into the Ethical Funeral Plans Trust Fund. This makes your funds totally secure. So whatever happens in the future, the funds will be there to pay for your funeral at the time of need. All Funeral Plans are provided by Peace Funerals working in conjunction with the Ethical Funeral Plans Trust. Peace Funerals are previous winners of the ‘Best Funeral

A

44 Pulse | www.pulsemag.co.uk

Directors in the UK Award’. The Ethical Funeral Plans Trust is the only Funeral Planning Trust committed to investing your plan funds ethically. If you would like to pre-pay for your Funeral Plan by lump sum, you can pay by cheque, BACS transfer, or by card. Or if you prefer, you can pay by monthly instalments over any period from 12 months to five years. If you choose to pay over 12 months, there is no interest payable. Thereafter, interest is payable at the rate of six per cent per annum compound. Everyone has different needs, so Peace Funerals have put together four different packages (each of which can be modified) so you can choose which fits you best: Direct Funeral Plan from £1,988* (cremation) or £2600* (woodland burial)

The ultimate in simplicity. This funeral plan is for people who do not want anyone to attend their funeral. Includes a coffin suitable for cremation or burial, transport of the coffin to the place of cremation or burial and doctors’ fees. Simple Cremation Plan from £2,479*

MOTORING

Open to new ideas

Stylish and sporty

You’ll not be dropping the roof just yet but the new Audi A5 Cabriolet should be at the top of your soft-top shopping list in 2017. The new model is lighter, more rigid, more comfortable and even more elegant – it looks pretty good too. There’ll be three engines available from launch – 2.0 TDI 190PS, 3.0 TDI 218PS and 2.0 TFSI 252PS – to be followed by a 2.0 TFSI 190PS and 3.0 TDI 286PS. You can also get your hands on the S5, which comes with a 354hp V6 turbocharged engine and Quattro all-wheel drive. The new A5 features a fully automatic acoustic hood with new one-touch operation (15 seconds to open, 18 seconds to close) as well as seat-belt microphones, both as standard. Prices are yet to be confirmed.

The super-stylish new Mercedes-Benz EClass Coupé ticks all the right boxes for comfort, performance and the latest technology, including full smartphone integration, the latest driver assistance systems and the option of semi-autonomous driving. Unique in this segment is a ‘floating’ widescreen cockpit. Made up of ‘virtual instruments’ and positioned in the driver’s direct field of vision, it can be tailored to each individual. A new 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine will join three petrol powertrains at launch, which delivers 194hp and CO2 emissions of 106g/km. The first deliveries will arrive in April.

RICHARD ABBEY CASTS AN EYE OVER THE LATEST MOTORING NEWS.

THE GIULIA IN ALFA’S CROWN The order books are now open on the all-new Alfa Romeo Giulia, with prices starting from £29,180. Combining perfect 50/50 weight distribution with new rear-wheel drive, it offers customers best in class power-toweight ratios and innovative engine and driver technologies. There will be a choice of four engine variants – two petrol and two diesel – which are all paired to a new eight-speed transmission as standard. A top-of-the-range £59,000 Giulia Quadrifoglio is also available to order and is powered by a 510hp, 600Nm bi-turbo V6 petrol engine with eight-speed paddle shift transmission as standard.

The bigger picture Not only is the new MINI Countryman the biggest in the brand’s 57-year history, it is also the first MINI range to feature a plug-in hybrid. The Cooper S E Countryman ALL4 combines a three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor, which reduces fuel consumption to 134.5mpg yet is still capable of sprinting from 0-62mph in just 6.9 seconds. The combined power output of 224hp is impressive. The new MINI Countryman, which is 20cm longer and 3cm wider than its predecessor, also features a touchscreen function for the first time as well touch-free electronic tailgate control. Satellite navigation, Bluetooth and emergency e-call are also now standard on all models. Prices start from £22,465 with first deliveries expected in February. 50 Pulse | www.pulsemag.co.uk
