Welcome to our
NOVEMBER ISSUE
Remember, remember the 5th of November! Not only because that is the Essential Esher copy deadline for the festive issue, but also because it’s a night to keep our pets safely inside. I know one small brown dog who will be crossing her legs and hiding that evening & a few other evenings, I expect, for sure! Also in this issue, we hear about an amazing young musician, Will Dutton. His achievements are amazing & if you are looking for a worthy cause to support, you wouldn’t go far wrong helping this young man. Recent winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year in the strings section, he is destined for great things, I’m sure! Also inside are details about the lighting of the Christmas Tree lights in the town a little later in the month. Do come along for a little festive cheer, with music and entertainmen. It should be a lovely evening, hope to see you there! Lots more for you to discover for yourselves inside, so I’ll sign off and leave you to it ...

Effort
of Will I
sn’t it funny how we get so used to our community that we sometimes forget how special it is? How many times have you driven from Cobham to Fetcham and ignored the little school on the other side of the M25? Well, that little school is, of course, the world-famous Yehudi Menuhin School, arguably the finest music college in the world. Its alumnae include Nigel Kennedy, Nicola Benedetti and a host of wonderful players working with some of the world’s greatest orchestras.
T
his year saw another great feather in the cap for the school when one of its final year students, William Dutton, won the string section of the BBC Young Musician of the Year. And if you have attended St Andrew’s Church over the last few years, you might have seen the young prodigy there, either singing in the choir or astounding everyone with his virtuosity in his many concerts. Will was born in 1995 in Leeds. He asked to play the violin aged 3 and began taking lessons when he was 4. In 2004, his talent was recognised by the Kazakh virtuoso Marat Bisengaliev; he subsequently studied with Marat and his wife Vassilia and then with Raimonda Koço in Leeds. Will was a member of the National Children’s Orchestra of Great Britain between 2003 and 2008 and was awarded a Leverhulme Trust Scholarship in 2006. In 2008, he gained a place at the Yehudi Menuhin School where he studied with Lutsia Ibragimova. As a pupil of the school, he regularly performed in the school solo and chamber music recitals, most notably last year, leading a performance of Schubert’s C Major Quintet. He led the viola section of the Yehudi Menuhin School Orchestra last summer in the Menuhin Festival in Gstaad, Switzerland, playing on Lord Menuhin’s Testore viola. In November 2013, Will led the violins of the YMS orchestra as they toured Holland, giving concerts in The Hague and in Amsterdam, where they accompanied the finalists of the Youri Egorov International Piano Competition. Successes as a soloist have included first place in the Concerto Class and the Annie Forth and Thomas Trophy Classes at the Harrogate Competitive Festival. Will was a soloist in Bach’s Concerto in D Minor for Two Violins with the York Minster Musical Society in York Minster in 2012. In April 2013, he was a guest soloist at the European String Teachers’ Association Conference and has been invited
back to perform again at this year’s national conference. In February 2014, Will performed at the Interlakner Musikfestwochen in Bern, where maestro Vladimir Ashkenazy presented the Yehudi Menuhin School with an award. And of course, the following month he won the coveted BBC Young Musician of the Year 2014 in Cardiff. If all that wasn’t enough, Will also won the BBC Radio 2 Young Chorister of the Year in 2006! He has performed with world-class soloists, orchestras, conductors and celebrities, including José Carreras, Alfie Boe, Aled Jones and Ken Dodd. He made his BBC Proms début in July 2007 as a soloist in Fauré’s Requiem with the BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales, conducted by Thierry Fischer, and his Welsh Proms début in July 2008 as the Youth in Mendelssohn’s Elijah alongside Bryn Terfel. Will left the school this year and is now preparing to become a professional muscician - a tough career but one he is working hard to achieve. As part of that process, Will has moved to Switzerland to study in the Haute École de Musique de Lausanne with Svetlana Makarova. Whilst it all sounds fabulously exotic, it is not cheap! Will is not from a wealthy background and is finding it hard to pay the £20,000 a year costs of living and learning in one of the world’s most expensive countries. Then he had an idea - why not ask for support using Crowd Funding? He set up a page and is kicking it off on 1 November. So if you fancy supporting Will, & even getting some great presents - CDs, concerts - read the details below & give this lovely, talented guy a hand - he would really appreciate it.
Support Will! If you fancy supporting Will in his career, then go to www.crowdfunding.co.uk and search for William Dutton.Your money will go straight to Will and there is a whole bunch of great gifts he will provide for your help.Thanks from Will!

MICROSOFT’S U P DAT E S & C H A N G E S This year has been quite a year at Microsoft. They retired a wide range of products for both the home and business users and they introduced a variety of new and up-and-coming products. To try and keep you informed with relevant changes, we hope the following is of value to you.
Out with the old: Significant products that have been retired this year include Windows XP, Office 2003 and Microsoft Server 2003. But what does retired mean? The software is no longer updated or supported by Microsoft. As it is aged software, it is more exposed to viruses and internet-borne threats and could be a security risk, exposing your machine, data and all devices to infiltration by remote users. What should you do if you are using any of these products? In short, stop using it and upgrade to a more secure platform.
In with the new: Windows 8 was released in December 2012 (with Windows 8.1 being released in February 2014). Its design and layout caught some users offguard; this often overshadowed its major advantages of increased security, improved performance, faster boot times and greater reliability. In our experience, people really liked it and could become productive very quickly with Windows 8.1. To ease the transition, we have recommended the use of a free-of-charge utility called Classic Shell from www.classicshell.net. This returns the start button which was removed from the initial version of Windows 8.0, and provides a familiar Windows 7 type interface. We have also seen the sales of Windows 7 machines remain very strong, and we expect this to continue, as a lot of companies prefer to work with standard products across their entire fleet. Microsoft recently announced its replacement to Windows 8, named Windows 10. Windows 10 is due to hit the streets in Spring 2015. It is going to be a mixture of Windows 7 and Windows 8, meaning it has the start bar, with programs and tiles being available off this start bar. More to follow on this, but it is being rumoured that any Windows 8 machine purchased now will be entitled to a free-of-charge upgrade to Windows 10 when it finally ships. The other significant development about Windows 10 is that the updates and upgrades are likely to be supplied on a subscription directly from Microsoft. More to follow as the options unfold‌

NO COMPROMISE REQUIRED
Vanessa Taylor had a very clear concept of the family home she wanted to create and wasn’t prepared to compromise – it was L&E she choose to work with to deliver her vision.
The Taylor family, Ben, Vanessa, Issy, Henry and Hugo moved to their 1920s house in Weybridge five years ago, attracted by its proximity to both schools and the town. Whilst the house was perfectly situated, they knew
it was going to be a labour of love, as it was in need of total refurbishment. The process was a lengthy one from conception to completion, and Vanessa was meticulous in her research, ensuring that no detail was missed. When it came to selecting a builder, she’d had various recommendations from friends and her architect. She explains, “From my previous work as a project manager, I was used to doing tender processes, so I put them all through their paces and did a full tender for the project. I knew exactly what I wanted and I knew I wasn’t going to go standard with certain things. I was quite specific and some builders just couldn’t cope with that.” Vanessa felt that the relationship with the project manager they appointed was going to be key to the success of the build and she really liked the approach of the L&E team with their can-do attitude. The relationship was formed long before the work started, with a steady communication from L&E, and then a problem allowed the company to show its fantastic service. Vanessa remembers, “We had a setback with our roof leaking into our bedroom before we’d given any builders the business. We knew the roof would be going when the building work started, so we just wanted it patched up to tide us over. We hadn’t signed contracts with anyone, so I called the builders we’d gone out to tender with – it was a great opportunity to test goodwill. L&E were the only people who actually responded. They sent someone round the same day and fixed the problem.” Vanessa was impressed and this, combined with the quality of work she’d seen at other builds, meant L&E were
appointed. The light-filled open-plan space at the rear of the property comprises the kitchen, dining room and family room. Definition is given to these different zones by a change in the flooring, linked by a striking curve. “The team was so competent and willing to try things it hadn’t done before - they didn’t bat an eyelid at my requests. It was a lot of work to get the wave detail right, but that’s what I wanted and the team was keen to deliver something I’d be happy with,” smiles Vanessa. An innovative laundry chute was another of Vanessa’s more unusual requests. Again, this was something the building team hadn’t done before “I was happy to drop it, but the foreman said ‘No, you want it, let’s do it!’ and this attitude was fantastic.” These innovative details are what make this home function in such an efficient way, as Vanessa says, “The laundry chute has been a life-changer for me!” As well as working with the family’s wish list, the building team was able to add ideas of their own. “No space was wasted and the kids even have a playroom in the eaves. It’s painted, carpeted and has a light. This was going to be a sealed space, but the foreman suggested using it as a den for the children and they love it.” Vanessa lived and breathed this project for several years, and the combination of her innovations and attention to detail with the L&E team’s can-do attitude and quality work has created a fabulous family home that they all love.

The hot, and I do mean HOT, Majorca sunshine took over where the cool silvery moon had left off and its beams pinpointed a view, centred eye-catchingly in the shadows of the spectacular Tramuntana mountains backdrop. Sheer joy. A sight to behold. A black beauty. My borrowed Porsche 911 Cabriolet. It was not only a welcome means of escape from the rather dreary hotel I had booked into - and, despite my obvious able-bodiedness, had been allotted the disabled guest’s room - it was a parade of a car on an island of show-offery. And neither I nor Trophy Wife fret about being stared at in an atmosphere of the utter envy of bystanders. Posche does not mess about or stint on style when there is really big money to be gained for a return of sheer excellence on the move, at a breathtaking, but safe, speed. This charismatic rag-top cabrio-cousin to the coupe, one of the world’s truly eminent sports cars, is a gift to sun-worshippers like me and TW who revel in breeze-in-the-

hair driving. Its behaviour and hard-grip road holding, fitting of such a painstakingly developed example of automotive genius, were immaculate whatever pressures I applied, either on the sharp mountain turns or on the straighter, slightly faster runs to the capital, Palma.There is so little tyre noise and if you opted for the spec, as on our car, of adapative dampers at extra cost, the ride becomes pleasant and compliant. With the roof down, you could be plunging into a gale and it would not disturb the calm of a cleverly designed cockpit that even has an electric roller-blind breeze-blocker behind the front seats, so that you don’t have to fiddle to put it up. And the seat heaters...wow...are a treat of bum-warming that keep you fire-

sidedly comfy and cosy, even with the top tucked away and the chilliest air striving to invade. With the kiddyseats in the back and a generously spaced boot upfront, the cabrio lives up to its deserved reputation as one of the most practical of sports cars. It certainly gives the likes of its rivals, the Audi R8 Spyder, the Mercedes SL and the Jaguar XKR, a good run for their money and performance levels. The entry level £83,000, which can be easily upped on the add-ons, appears trifling in comparison as the most economical and lowest-emitting of them all. As a final tribute to Porsche’s enlightenment, I cite the roof. They have redesigned it and sandwiched magnesium panels into the fabric, so that when the roof is up, it is effectively a hard top. Whatever words of praise I may summon up, I feel they fall well short of the reality which may only be discerned by getting behind the wheel for a spin to thrill. The perfect getaway car from a dreary holiday stopover.

You can even use level changes to direct routes around your garden to maximise the impact of good views & minimise any bad points. Here are my top ‘designer’ tips:Steps should refer to the house & be of a sympathetic scale. Generally, they should line up with doors out from your house, so that they lead you out into the garden. Very steep gardens need careful planning so that you don’t introduce huge flights of steps, which will put you off exploring. Also, costs can be kept down if you use some areas of slope or create several smaller flights of steps. Try & create a route across the slope or meander up. Where possible, keep flights to two or three steps at a time, as these keep the climbing manageable. Steps have treads (the flat bits you tread on) & risers (the vertical bits). The treads should be around 350mm & the risers around 150mm. This can be varied to suit your design, but risers should never be more than 180mm (uncomfortably steep) or less than 100mm (a trip hazard). In a flight of steps, all treads should be the same & all risers should be the same. This makes them comfortable & safe and they look better too! Get the overhang of the tread just large enough to give a crisp shadow which will help you see the step but don’t overhang too much so

that you will catch your foot on it. This is especially important in the front garden: - consider what your treads will look like at the edge &, depending on the effect you want, you may need to select stone which is a pleasing thickness or even have the stone shaped to create a smart look to the edge of the tread. Choose materials that work with the house or with the rest of the hard landscaping. For example, if you have a red brick house, then the risers might match the house, especially if you walk up the steps going towards the house. If your steps connect to a retaining wall, the risers can be clad to match the wall. In a sloping garden, where landscaping is going to be more expensive, as retaining walls & steps might be needed to make the most from the space, getting the design to work is especially important.

I’m often asked which my favourite era in pop is, and for many years, I would automatically say ‘the 60s’, mainly because I became a pop fan in that decade & also because music was such an important part of youth culture. The 60s were also a breakthrough time for British acts in America. Having recently hosted a couple of big 80s themed parties, I’m now wondering if it isn’t time to evaluate the importance & enjoyment of the most colourful decade in pop. The 60s were revolutionary, the 70s were eclectic, having started with introspective guitarstrumming singer-songwriters & ending with the punks whose purpose was to shake up the scene & chase away the remnants of hippie culture. The 80s though were something else. I have fond memories of presenting Top of the Pops, when each episode was like hosting a big party. The decade saw the birth of MTV which meant that image was just as important as the music. Music & fashion mixed like never before. Superstars such as Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Madonna & Prince emerged to embrace the new MTV generation, while producing some of the most enduring music of all time. George Michael, David Bowie, Annie Lennox, Boy George & Duran Duran became as popular in the US as they were in the UK. CDs, Walkmans, cassettes & boom boxes also gave us new ways of accessing the hits. I began the decade hosting Top of the Pops & ended it hosting The Network Chart, so I was in the enviable position of seeing the new trends evolve & mixing with the personalities who were most successful in the 80s. So, for me, while video didn’t actually kill the radio star, it was certainly a big game changer!

Last month Buttons & Bows over 60s Club held a Charity Coffee Morning to raise funds for a local charity The Rainbow Trust. This is for terminally sick children & is based in Leatherhead.
We have successfully raised the fantastic figure of £600.00
This was made possible by holding a Homemade Cake Stall, a Bottle Tombola, Guess the Weight of the Cake, Refreshments & a Grand Raffle. Donations for this came from local businesses such as Waitrose in Esher & Hersham, Garsons, Red Peppers, Air Products, Tesco, Waterstones & the ‘Cookie Man’. The event was opened by the Mayor & Mayoress of Elmbridge & a representative from the Rainbow Trust, & held in the Sports & Social Club in West End Lane, Esher.

MEDICAL MATTERS!!
DIABETES A N D M E D I C AT I O N This is quite a minefield for patient & professional alike. Clinical trials bring new evidence, changing guidelines which in theory should deliver better care to patients. Many medications used in diabetes care have multiple benefits & ideally should be considered sooner rather than later, as prevention of complications in diabetes is key. Anyone with diabetes over the age of 40 should consider statin therapy. They get a bad press, but current evidence is robust that they reduce cholesterol levels & also reduce risk of heart disease. Blood pressure is also an important element in diabetes requiring good control. A group of tablets called ACE inhibitors (ramipril, enalapril, lisinopril) work well to achieve this, while also helping maintain healthy kidney function. There are now many different tablets used to control blood sugar levels. Some have been around for over 60 years, while others are very new to the market. Metformin is the mainstay first-line treatment in diabetes management. It works well, reduces appetite & helps the body use its own insulin better. It is used as long as it is tolerated & kidney function is good. Gliclazide also has been around a long time. It seems now though to be being superseded by other, newer medications. It works by stimulating the pancreas to make more insulin & may cause problems with hunger, weight gain and low blood sugars (hypos). Newer drugs are now being welcomed, as more data is being collected as to the effectiveness of these drugs. If you feel your blood sugars control could be better, why not discuss your medication options with your GP or practice nurse?
