Welcome to our June issue! It will soon be Village Week here in Bookham, so lots to look forward to this month, including Open Gardens, and of course, our wonderful Village Day event. If you are new to Bookham, this is a must-do family event and this year it will take place on Saturday 21st June. Look Local loves Village Day! Effingham Village Day also takes place this month and offers a funpacked day as well. Details of all these events can be found within our pages. Also in this issue we hear from the Peter Pan Play Group and we welcome a new motoring feature by Ted Macauley. Ted lives locally and has a longrunning journalistic background; he has written motoring/lifestyle features for a number of national newspapers over the years. We welcome him to our pages. I visited Astek Dental Centre and spoke to Alan Wilson, the Astek implant specialist. What a fascinating process that is ! There is a lot going on locally at this time of year, so do look out for information on events at The Grange and Polesden Lacey as you flick through this issue. And finally, do remember Fathers’ Day on Sunday 15th June. Wishing Well in the High Street has a nice line of cards, I believe ;-)
Wishing you all a great month. Warmest regards, Ros x

Astek Dental Centre
In addition to standard dentistry, Askek Dental Centre also offers a comprehensive range of more specialised dental services. I went along recently to chat to Alan Wilson, one of the Astek dentists. He specialises in precision implants, and with the Astek lab on site, the whole process can be managed and synchronized from start to finish under one roof. The implant process is actually a surgical procedure and is taken very seriously at Astek. Every care is taken to provide a sterile, clinical environment, thus preventing any infection or contamination. The first stage of treatment would be a regular dental-type check with one of the team to assess the general condition of the patient’s mouth. It is normal for a scan to be taken of the mouth to ascertain the condition of the jawbone and the positioning of any surrounding teeth. Once Alan has this information, work can start on the production of the implant. This obviously is a very bespoke service as each mouth is unique! The degree of work
also depends on how many implants are being given. This can vary from an individual tooth to a full set. In the case of a full set, there would not be an implant for each tooth required; a certain amount of bridge work can often be incorporated which reduces the procedure required, as well as the cost. The implant itself is basically a post or screw which is positioned in the jawbone under local anaesthetic. Once in place, a ‘healing cap’ is fitted. This stays in place for a couple of months to allow the bone to fuse around the post ,thus making a very solid foundation for the final application of a crown to finish treatment. One of the main advantages of using Astek Dental for your implants is that their lab is on site, so crowns and any implant bridge work are all made under the same roof. This means that if any adjustments are needed during the fitting process, which is often the case with such precision work, these can be done quickly and while you wait. Other practices would normally need to send
crown away for such adjustments, meaning extra visits for patients and generally a more drawn-out process as a whole. It’s not only fit which can be adjusted but colour/tooth shade too, providing the perfect match. Alan works closely with Ailsa, the founder of Astek Dental Centre. She is very experienced and skilled at making crowns, and her passion to provide perfectly-fitting teeth is well-known in the area. You just have to take a peek at the Astek Dental visitors’ book to see how popular she is. Not many dental practices have a visitors’ book, do they?! Speaks volumes, I would say.... I have seen adverts for companies offering low-cost implants abroad, but I for one would not like to risk these unknown services where my health is concerned. I have heard a few disaster stories, which have led to major corrective work being required afterwards. False economy really, and can you imagine
the worry if you needed any adjustments. It’s often the case that as your mouth heals and as even minor swelling decreases, adjustments can be needed. If you had to make international travel plans to sort these out, I don’t think you would end up saving very much money, let alone all the time and effort that would be involved too. If you would like to discuss the implant process, do call Astek Dental Centre. They are very friendly and professional and will be delighted to answer any questions you may have.

CAR REVIEW
PEUGEOT 308 save loads of fiddling. Peugeot...or PURRgeot...put their newcomer through two million miles of rigorous testing before its recent launch. They made it lighter than its stuffy predecessor, so its fuel thirst is not so unquenchable, and re-fashioned its indoors set-up to a really comfy level with bags of room for mum and the kids. If I were a rival producer in this market, I would be one concerned body because the 308’s show-off ability is not limited to its sleek appearance but also to its agility and economy. What more could you ask? Oh yes, how much? Between £14,495 and £24,045. My top-of-the class Feline model - they also have Access, Active and Allure - was a pussycat around town and a happy-to-go performer on the motorways. PURRR-fect.... Specification: Feline. Engine 1.6. 1598cc. BHP 156. Six speed manual. Top speed 132 mph. 0-62 8.4 secs. MPG 48.7. Price :£21,345.
By Ted Macauley
Let me introduce you to the Peugeot 308, or rather, the PURR-geot Feline. As hatchbacks go - and this one certainly does -the French car maker has weighed in with an ooh-la-la of a revitalised version of the preceding older, slower, more cumbersome model. And it is a treat of a drive that takes the price and style battle right to the doorstep of its Korean rivals. Understated it may look kerbside, but as a performer with balance and pep, nippy both off the mark and on the run, the updated, uprated 308 is a winner. And the interior is as refined as can be, with innovative simplified and straightforward touch-screen instrumentation that even technical duffers like me can make sense of without having to take a degree course in clocks and dials. The 9.7-inch display, so neat and tidy with its seven buttons, warns you of just about everything - and the keyless entry and start-up
Henshaws are delighted to announce that Roger Grunsell, who was formally the senior partner at Swan Lettings, has joined Henshaws as their Lettings Development Manager. Roger brings nearly 18 years of lettings experience to Henshaws and joins manager Debbie Richardson with the aim to expand their already-established lettings department. Since leaving Swan 4 years ago, Roger has been training letting agents throughout the London & South East and said “Our approach to lettings is to offer a personal, yet thoroughly professional service, rather than adopt a corporate approach”. The company ethos is one of first-rate service to both landlords and tenants, with the business being built on excellent service and customer care. We believe in providing the best level of care a property could have and finding a tenant who will look after it and make it their home. Henshaws have offices in East Horsley and Bookham, with the lettings department based in Bookham. Roger added “From both these offices we can serve the surrounding areas, including East & West Horsley, Effingham, Clandon, Leatherhead, Fetcham & Ashtead. Prospective landlords can be assured that all our properties are advertised in the widest market available, with prominent exposure on all the major portals including Rightmove, Zoopla & Primelocation.” Henshaws are proud members of ARLA - the Association of Residential Lettings Agents, which means our clients’ accounts are fully bonded. If you have a property to let and would like to speak to Roger or any one of the Henshaws letting team, without obligation, then feel free to drop into our office for an informal chat or call us on 01372 750282 to arrange an appointment or email: lettings@henshaws.net

PETER PAN PLAYSCHOOL’S
SPRING SPONSORED WALK Children from Peter Pan Playschool, based in Great Bookham, completed a one mile sponsored walk in the grounds of Polesden Lacey on Saturday 26th April. With a break in the rain clouds, the children had great fun completing the walk. In addition to jumping in puddles, the children enjoyed sitting in the giant stone bath, exploring through the trees, & an animal nature trail hunt along the route. At the finish, the children were presented with
special medals & given well-earned packed lunches. The children were raising money for Peter Pan Playschool garden resources, (including bubble machines, hanging chalk boards, small world play mats) & were extremely pleased to have raised almost ÂŁ500 from the walk. If you would like to find out more about Peter Pan Playschool, please call us on
07908 018924.

HAVE IT YOUR WAY... We have seen a considerable increase in customers wanting computers for specific tasks, defined performance requirements, shapes & sizes. By way of example, we have recently supplied machines which are near-silent to act as media centres in the lounge or sound design setup for the recording studio; we have provided multimonitor systems for trading desks, powerful 3D CAD systems with multi-monitors for design and drafting purposes, high performance medical workstations with multi-solid state hard drives for high speed, durability and reliability, multi-drive machines for video and photo manipulation, where the solid state drive runs the operating system and programs and the mechanical hard drive(s) provide the data storage required. Yes, you’ve guessed it, there are loads of options and variations, and yes, it is possible to purchase a “stock” machine and adapt it, but this usually is more costly and you will end up with an inferior product. We have been designing and building PCs for the past 25 years. We are confident a TecRes custom machine will provide you with the best quality, performance and value currently available. A specific system will have been proposed, taking into account a wide variety of factors, including your needs and requirements, the system’s power requirements, cooling, appearance, noise levels. So if you feel your next machine needs to be something “a bit different” why not talk to us?
This guide was written by Les Beer from TecRes, which has been providing computer solutions since 1989. How can we help you? For further information, please call 01372-370300 or email sales@tecres.co.uk

GARDENING MATTERS On a roll now, regarding the Latin/Greek names of plants, so without further ado, off we go with names given to the first element, the genus… Some generic names are simply derived from their ancient equivalent, so Symphytum is the Greek for comfrey and Faba is the Latin for broad bean (if you’ve seen The Silence of the Lambs, you’ll recognise the Italian ‘fava’ from this *shudders*); others have been changed slightly from their original meaning, with the connection still obvious: Allium, the Latin for garlic, applies to the whole genus of onions. Many names are derived from a connection with the gods and other folk from mythology, so, for example, Paeonia is named after the physician Paeon, whom Pluto turned into a flower because he was pleased with his cures. Yeah, I know, lucky chap. Achillea is named after Achilles, the Greek hero, who used it to heal wounds. Women are also represented in plant names, although not as well as men. Helenium is after Helen of Troy and is said to have sprung up where her tears fell, and Artemisia is said to be named after Queen Artemiisia of Caria (Turkey), although there are some who say it is after the Greek goddess Artemis, and means literally ‘she who heals sickness’. Plants named after real people are Latinised
to make them fit in with all the other plant names. It was bad form to name a plant after yourself, so only rarely does a plant end up with the name of its discoverer. One example of this is the Tradescants, father and son, who were renowned plant collectors in the 17th century, travelling to faraway places in search of new plants. Tradescantia is named after John Tradescant the elder, who discovered it on his travels to North America. However, plants have often been named in honour of certain people, such as Fuchsia, named after Leonhart Fuchs, a German physician and botanist. His chief claim to fame is as the author of a herbal, a large book about plants and their uses as medicines, first published in 1542 in Latin. Buddleia was named after Adam Buddle, an English botanist who died in 1715, and Forsythia (ugh, yellow) was named in honour of William Forsyth (1737–1804), a Scottish botanist. He was a royal head gardener and a founding member of the Royal Horticultural Society. Of course, it isn’t only Latin or Greek which have been used to name plants. Grossularia comes from ‘groseille’, the French for gooseberry, Tulipa from the Turkish for turban - the shape being the obvious connection – and Crocus from the Semitic for saffron. Next time, the species. Bet you can hardly wait….

RECIPE
BERRY PAVLOVA WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE INGREDIENTS •
3 egg whites
• 175g caster sugar
• 500ml double cream/whipping cream
• 150g white chocolate
• 200g berries (raspberries, strawberries etc)
METHOD Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Whisk the egg whites with an electric whisk in a grease-free bowl until stiff peaks form. Whisk in the sugar one tablespoon at a time until glossy Line a flat baking tray with greaseproof or baking paper, and with a pencil, draw a 20 cm (8 inch) circle in the centre. Spoon or pipe meringue mixture inside the circle. Flatten the middle with the back of a spoon. Put the meringue into the oven and turn the temperature down to 150C/300F/Gas 2 . Bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the meringue has hardened on the outside but is still soft and chewy in the middle. Allow meringue to cool in the oven. Melt the white chocolate over a bain marie – save a little of the white chocolate to add as shavings on to the berries once finished Once the meringue has cooled, spoon the melted white chocolate on to the top of the pavlova in a bowl, whip the double cream/whipping cream until soft peaks form. Once the white chocolate has hardened, spoon the double cream mixture onto the pavlova. Arrange the berries on top and shave some white chocolate on top of the berries.

The sitting room & two bedrooms have the estuary view, whilst the other bedroom & the kitchen have views south across the Cader Idris mountain range. Herongate is located in an ideal location for walking, cycling, bird watching, climbing, pony trekking & much more. The Mawddach Trail is close by which offers a scenic eight-mile walk or cycle to Dolgellau, a typical Welsh market town.
