Welcome to June

Welcome to our June issue of Look Local. Summer is certainly on the way, and I’m wondering if it will be as warm as last year? It’s hard to imagine the grass being parched and turning brown when it is so lush and green right now. It’s amazing how it has recovered so well isn’t it? What a busy month June promises to be! Village Day is on Saturday 15th June this year, with the theme being ‘Bookham at Sea’ I’m sure it will be a fabulous day. Details can be found within. This is followed on Sunday 16th June by ‘Bookham’s Open Gardens’ event, another very popular day. I’ve put in an order for a weekend of sunshine, so fingers crossed! Bookhams Residents’ Association AGM. Due to unforeseen circumstances the date has been changed to 10th July. Please see page 35 for more details. I know many of you will join me in thanking Be Kassapian, from ‘Be in the Kitchen’, for all the fabulous recipes that she has provided us with over the past few years. Be has decided to take a break from being featured in Look Local due to her demanding schedule which now also includes a fair chunk of time spent studying. We wish you all the very best Be, and we really appreciate all the culinary inspiration you’ve sent our way. xx But do not despair, we wouldn’t leave you recipe-less! So to carry on where Be left off, we are delighted to welcome Jackie Mazur of ‘Delicious Dishes’ to our pages. Thank you for joining us Jackie, we are looking forward to your contributions over the coming months… On a different note, We are very happy to be launching our beautifully refreshed, and shiny new Website this month! If you have a moment do pay us a visit at www.looklocalmagazine.co.uk. We hope you like it. Wishing you all a great month and a Happy Father’s Day to all you local Dads too !

BOOKHAM AT SEA ON VILLAGE DAY THE OLD BARN HALL, CHURCH RD, KT23 3PQ www.bookhamcommunityassociation.org

A highlight of Bookham’s year is Village Week, which begins on Saturday 15th June with Village Day. All at Sea is this year's theme – in, on and under the sea. Village Day is sponsored by The Vineries Garden Centre and attractions in the afternoon in the field behind the Old Barn Hall in Church Road include an exciting surfing simulator and a return of the popular climbing wall for all to try. The day starts at 11.40am with the big parade from the High Street where children from local playgroups and infant schools, dressed in costumes interpreting the All at Sea theme, will parade to the Old Barn Hall. Reigate Sea Cadets Band will lead the parade for the first time and a steel band will also be playing. Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes in each group when they reach the arena. Non-stop arena events will include music from the Reigate Sea Cadets Band, singer Natalie Goodacre, the Band from the Pub and Pantastic Steel Pans. Local schools, Action Theatre and Belly Dancers will also entertain. The Surfing Waverider attraction, sponsored by Elio's Barbers and Di Carlo’s Hairdressing, will challenge everyone’s surfing skills, as the bucking bronco has in previous years. The exciting climbing wall is sponsored jointly by John Wadsworth Estate Agents and Churches Together of Bookham.

12 LookLocal Magazine - June 2019

A Punch and Judy show, roundabout, bouncy castle, slide and Bocketts Farm animals are just some of the entertainments for children. The field and Hall will be filled with more than 50 stalls and sideshows run by local organisations. The popular open-air bar will serve a selection of real ales, a barbeque will have burgers and hot dogs, and cold drinks and ice cream will be available on the field. Lunches and teas will be served all day in the Old Barn Hall. The aim of Village Day and Village Week is to have a great time and raise funds for Bookham Community Association to maintain the Old Barn Hall and produce the quarterly Bookhams Bulletin. Events during Village Week include on Sunday 16th June: Bookham Open Gardens with over 15 gardens open and refreshments available at the Old Barn Hall. Subsequent events in the Old Barn Hall are on Monday 17th June: Duplicate Bridge Cream Tea hosted by Bookham Afternoon Bridge Club at 1pm, celebrating its 50th anniversary, and Mole Valley Silver Band concert at 7.30, and on Tuesday 18th June: Quiz Night for BCA affiliated teams.

Bookham Wine Club

‘What! Moldovan Wines?’ Monday, June 10 2019... This will be a ‘first’ for BWC when its June meeting features an evening of Moldovan wines. The history of wine in Moldova is vast, and can be traced back some 5,000 years; so to say Moldavan wine is steeped in history is a bit of an understatement. And, more recently, the venerable folk at Guiness World Records recognised the Milestii Mici Wine Cellar as the world’s largest, with a record-breaking 1.5 million bottles in its darkened cellars! Today, Moldovan winemaking is in very good health, and our presenter for the evening, Irina Hriplivi, will tell members and guests more about the region and its wine makers, and present six of her favourite wines for us to taste. In July, the title for our wine tasting is California Dreamin’ with wine expert Deborah Zbinden - and later in July, on Friday, 26th, in co-operation with the Association of Wine Educators, we will be holding a

special Summer Event; a tutored wine tasting of 25 wines, with wine expert Heather Dougherty, followed by a Hog Roast and music. If you would like further information on these events, or any of the Club’s activities, please visit our website: www.bookhamwineclub.org.uk or contact: membership@bookhamwineclub.org.uk

THE BOOKHAMS’ RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION

INTRODUCES ONLINE MEMBERSHIP PAYMENT OPTION Pay BRA 2019 Subscription Residents will be familiar with their BRA subscriptions being collected by their Road Steward each year. This has been a long established method of paying subscriptions and Road Stewards will continue to be part of our collections and Newsletter delivery service. However, we are finding that when your Road Steward calls, members are either not at home or these days have very little ready cash. So in addition to paying your Road Steward, you can now pay your subscription on line at the BRA web site: www.bookhamresidents.org.uk It’s very simple to use and only takes a few moments to do. The current annual subscription is £3.00 but due to increasing running costs the annual subscription will be increasing to £5.00 in 2020. If you can pay £5.00 for the 2019 subscription year it will help us with our expenses this year. Why do I need to pay an annual subscription to the BRA? In 2017 Residents formally voted not to have a Parish Council for Bookham. Residents have been providing

services for the village under the umbrella of the BRA on a voluntary basis for many years. (The BRA does not have any paid employees.) However, as always, there are expenses to be funded by your subscriptions. For example the BRA provides: • hanging baskets in the High Street and Church Rd • the popular Christmas lights in the High Street • supporting the work of the voluntary Tree Wardens • equipment for the monthly litter pick • hosting Public Meetings affecting Bookham residents • twice yearly newsletter • web site and email service • lobbying for infrastructure improvements • operational costs including Public Liability insurance (which has increased this year at the behest of Surrey County Council). An awful lot for the price of a cup of coffee or two so we may all enjoy our village! Les Huett - BRA Publicity www.bookhamresidents.org.uk

THANK YOU There has been much less litter around Bookham in the last few months. A huge thank you to: All those folk who have been doing their own private litter picks. (I’ve noticed some roads that are normally black spots suddenly look great). All those folk who try very hard not to drop any litter themselves & who encourage those with them not to either. All those folk who help at the monthly litter pick (1st Sun of the month, 11am meeting at Lower Shott). Your efforts have really helped the village to look good - somewhere to be proud of. Thank you and do please keep it up. Margaret Lawson. Bookhams Residents Association

Word reached us here at Look Local, that The Swan Inn Pub in Claygate had been taken over by the popular London chef Jose Pizarro recently, so we went along to find out more. Upon arrival we were met by General Manager, the lovely Huw Johnson, who was previously managing Joseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bermondsey Street restaurant before moving to run The Swan. The bar area is very roomy, the tables well spaced and has a very relaxed feel. There was a gentleman sitting quietly with his drink and working on his I-pad, another sitting reading the paper, a small group of friends having a drink and sharing some Tapas, and others just having a drink and a chat. Whilst you can sit and eat anywhere in the Swan, the main dining area is offset from the bar and you can prebook these tables. The Swan has a really lovely traditional English pub feel with a modern twist and the menu reflects this. The

30 LookLocal Magazine - June 2019

menu is inspiring and very flexible. Our lovely waitress for the evening, Kaz, was very knowledgeable and was able to talk us through the menu choices. Mostly made up of a wide selection of tapas there are a handful of more traditional menu choices with a special Jose twist, such as Fish & Chips. Whilst we waited for our meal to arrive we nibbled on Gordal olives stuffed with blood orange, and ciabatta with a bowl of olive oil for dipping. Heaven! We had chosen the Presa Iberica (100% acorn fed Iberico pork) with baby potatoes, pimenton, to share and a selection of tapas. Our meal arrived and we sampled the delicious delights that this lovely pub has to offer complimented by a bottle of the house red Syrah Cuvee. It really is a lovely way to share food with friends. We finished our meal with a bowl of Spanish strawberries served with vermouth vinegar, white chocolate & pistachios (Yes! That really does work!)

and Almond & Prune tart served with Sherry cream. A family of four was on the table next to us, a couple with their two young daughters. What a lovely way for them to eat out and no doubt accommodate all the differing appetites and tastes that a family has. Comfortably busy, the pub offers a relaxed atmosphere, flexible dining, excellent food and great service. In addition to all this there is a really lovely outside seating and eating area. It feels like a secret hideaway. Enclosed by high fencing and walls it is a surprisingly peaceful area despite the busy road nearby. This area also brings extra culinary delights! There is a char grill alongside a Green Egg (a smoker and charcoal barbecue) and a Paella stand. The paella stand has a wood fire in the centre, similar to a fire pit, (where the paella pan can stand) and is surrounded by a cast iron griddle for cooking all the components for your paella. These fabulous additions to the core menu will mostly

be in use Friday evenings, Saturdays and Sundays, weather permitting. Roll on Summer I say. I cannot wait to go back when the weather is better to try this part of the inspirational dining experience The Swan offers. Part of the garden will be available for private hire, so you could have your very own Paella party with your private chef for the event! Mmm! When’s my birthday? Also available for hire is a private dining room upstairs in the pub that seats up to 16. There will be special events coming up, with music, dancing etc. One of these will be a dinner on 10th July to celebrate Jose’s new book “Andalusia”. I cannot recommend a visit to the Swan enough. We had a fabulous evening and are planning a return visit very soon. Our thanks go to Huw and his team for making us so welcome.

THE LEATHERHEAD & DISTRICT LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY

Worms, Ashes And Bones: From Darwin To Today At Abinger EMMA CORKE, former president of the Surrey Archaeological Society, fascinated the Leatherhead & District Local History Society by talking about discoveries on the Iron Age and Roman site at Cocks Farm, Abinger. Emma’s great great grandfather, Thomas Henry Farrer, bought Abinger Hall at Cocks Farm in 1875. His gardeners soon discovered the remains of a Roman building on the site and archaeological excavations in the following year uncovered six rooms, including one with a coarse-tessellated floor from Roman times. Farrer was friends with Charles Darwin, the founder of modern understanding about evolution of species, and Darwin’s son Horace married Farrer’s daughter Ida. In 1880 Horace produced a plan of the Cocks Farm site. Darwin himself was interested in investigating the role of earthworms in movement of ancient stone structures. Nothing more was done until a tree uprooted in the great storm of October 1987 was seen to have the corner of a stone-built room in its roots, together with painted wall-plaster and fine tesserae. Three years of excavation in 1995-97 by Surrey Archaeological Society found a large late- Roman

building, which led to the site being declared a Scheduled Ancient Monument. So many questions remained that in 2009 English Heritage gave permission for five more years of excavation on the buildings, which has found a multi-phase, probably courtyard, villa. The work has revealed artefacts from the Mesolithic period from 12,000 to 3000 BC onwards and provides evidence that the site was occupied and farmed continuously from the Neolithic through to the 19th century. Thirty Iron Age grain storage pits, one of them 3.4m in diameter, indicate that the site was the centre of a thriving network of farms in that era. The owners in the Roman period were clearly rich but we can only speculate who they were, how they made their money or how they used the villa. The team has found remains of sacrificed animals and

many human cremation burials. The 2016 excavation revealed five complete calf skeletons. The first guess was that they were an ancient sacrifice but carbon dating shows they were buried around the Tudor or Stuart periods. Possibly they died of rinderpest and were buried to protect the rest of the herd. For more information on the L&DLHS go to www.leatherheadhistory.org.

Do come and join in this annual event where over 700 people enjoy going round the village, meeting friends and neighbours along the way. This year we are featuring around 14 varied and attractive private gardens. It is very reassuring that in our 14th year we are still attracting new gardens and have six of them to share with you.

In addition, we welcome back The Dawnay School (after an absence of some years), Gracewell Care Home, the Grange Centre (with its Victorian walled garden) and Little Bookham Allotments. The gardens come in all shapes and sizes, from the formal to more laid-back planting, and some with wildlife friendly planting and habitats. You’ll also find fruit and vegetables in abundance at the Grange and the Allotments and some gardens. Find out more about individual gardens in the programme which will be available at our ticket outlets or can be downloaded from our website at www.bookhamopengardens.co.uk.

Gardening Matters GREEN, BLACK, YELLOW

So, this month, planting in green, in black (ooh, dramatic) and…..I suppose I’ll have to….planting in yellow, although it pains me to do so. Let’s get it over with. Greens will give extra interest and many will grow in dark areas. Some are perilously close to yellow for my liking but many are quite definite shades of green. Angelica archangelica is a short-lived perennial with bright lime green flowers, growing to 6ft. It needs dappled shade and moist soil. Ferula communis (fennel) has wafting, frondlike green flowers. Kniphofia - dwarf red hot poker - is a pale creamy green, and Eryngium agavifolium has coarse spiky leaves and thistle-like flowers. The euphorbia family gives us E.myrsenites, with silver-grey leaf and green flower, which will grow in the worst conditions, and E. wolfenii, green bracts with a purple centre, but beware, the milky sap can irritate bare skin, so wear gloves. Finally, handy for winter flowering are the hellebores Green Dragon and Hacquetia epipactis, the earliest of all herbaceous perennials and vivid lime-green, needing full shade and moist soil. Black provides unusual interest surrounded by brighter colours, and the shades of black vary from deepest Goth to dark purplish-black. Probably best-known is Ophiopogon planiscapus nigrescens with its black foliage, purple flowers and black berries. It spreads to form clumps and can be left to grow. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil but it’s tolerant of most soils. Handy

too as front-of-border are Ajuga (bugle), Pelargonium Black Red Vesuvius, a dwarf geranium with black foliage and scarlet flower - sadly, rarely available - and Lobelia cardinalis ‘Queen Victoria’, with scarlet flowers on black foliage and needing full sun and moist soil. Back-of-border drama queens include Paeonia delavayi (tree peony), with deep maroon/black flowers, Cornus alba ‘Hessei’, with dark purple foliage, dark stem and white berries, and black bamboo. And let’s not forget the dramatic black tulip ‘Queen of the Night’. And sooooo, reluctantly and only because I promised, we come to planting in yellow *shudder*. I’m reliably informed by my erstwhile tutor, Sue Jackson, that the function of yellows is to calm if they’re pastels (doesn’t do it for me) or to make a statement otherwise. Yellows go from pastel creams and lemons (just about OK) through ‘egg yolk’ (aaaaarghhhh) to hot, eye-catching gold, umbre, orange and copper browns (yucky). Many yellows appear in spring, with sweeping drifts of daffodils, narcissi and crocus heralding new birth (see, I can do poetic, even with yellows). Spring also produces Polyanthus, Forsythia and Kerrya japonica, and summer brings Achillea, sunflowers, Oenothera and lilies. You can intensify yellow’s boldness by pairing it with red/ orange/lavender, or group it with pink/green for more subtle combinations, if indeed you can use ‘yellow’ and ‘subtle’ in the same sentence. And on that note, I need to go for a lie-down now.

Personalised email and economical upgrades ... Recently a number of large volume email providers have closed their services usually due to the cost of providing the service being too great for any rewards which may be returned. These companies include O2, Tesco and Which. You may be asking what benefit could the email providers be gaining? The general answer is a simple one- you give them permission to “read” your emails and provide contextual advertising, this is agreed in their terms and conditions when you sign up to their service. This is the reason why the likes of Gmail, Outlook, Hotmail, Yahoo are keen for your email traffic, for example- if you are in correspondence with someone about a holiday - you may see banner adverts usually in your web browser from holiday firms, the holiday firm would have paid for this advert or “impression”. This is evidence of contextual advertising. Changing your email address and notifying your contacts can be headache, to mitigate a recurrence of this, a way around it is to purchase your own email address - also know as domain name. Once bought this address is yours forever (assuming subscriptions are maintained) By way of example let’s say your name is Jane Walter, you could purchase (subject to availability) the domain name “walter-family.co.uk”, and your email address could be jane@walter-family.co.uk. The beauty of this arrangement is that this is yours forever and should the suppling firm decide that email isn’t their “thing”, you can move it to another provider. You may be thinking this arrangement is expensive and exclusive to companies, but you would be wrong. To purchase the domain name and have it registered to you for 2 years is only £35.00 (+vat)- then it is necessary to have the email service added, and this can be a little as £25 per year. For less than the cost of filling your car up with fuel you have an email address and email service for life, additionally you can add further email accounts for mum, dad, the kids and so on.

Low cost computer upgrades The thought of moving all your data onto a new machine can cause palpitations to many. A way to avoid this is to upgrade your existing machine. Windows 10 and Mojave are reasonably accepting when it comes to running on old hardware. To remove the frustration of a slow running machine, a great option is to replace your current hard drive with a Solid State Drive (SSDs), the performance boost is impressive and is said to be upto 20 times quicker- which is pretty astonishing. SSD’s have fallen greatly in price so the cost of the upgrade and us to copy all your data to the SSD could be way less than buying a new machine. Please call for more information.

VOLVO XC90 CAR REVIEW BY TED MACAULEY

Wow factor cars are few and far between; rare commodities in a market hungry for good taste & value for money. And that brings me right-away to a success story of a supply to please, & thoroughly satisfy, in the attractive shape of Volvo’s latest SUV challenger, their XC90. As a treat of fulsome & comfy features, of family requirements on the move, it ticks all the boxes. And what a looker, too!!! Their deservedly legendary seven-seater, has been given a clever & welcome overhaul, but it holds onto one crucial factor; a transversely set-up engine whose huge share of its length can be handed over to the car’s interior for a generously spacious lounge-like atmosphere. In fact, just about every item in XC90 is fresh - right down to its refashioned Volvo badge. That just about sums up how beneficially caring the designers have been. Now what about its all embracing cabin/cockpit, call it what you like? Little or nothing has been left to chance in the Scandanavian company’s quest to give value for your hard-earned. The all-new infotainment set-up is all singing, all dancing and it dwells in a system that occupies most of the central dash, with stylish graphics, high resolution & clear to read & understand menus, and fixtures and

52 LookLocal Magazine - June 2019

switches which require the least effort. But all credit to the designers: their principal concern has been all about comfort for the driver & passengers relaxing over the seven seats. And to add to the joys of the riders, the handling of the car is excellent, with very little roll or understeer, and offers a general feeling of ease and relaxation. Ultra-safe, too. A four-wheel-drive, offering the most secure traction on the wettest and most threatening skiddy roads, that would easily trap lesser, well-equipped rivals. If you plan a marathon drive for a holiday, in say, far off Scotland, have no frets about the family’s full comfort, with the arrangement of seating with its three-row design. The first two with five places, that all recline & slide to cope with whatever room is needed and the third row is just the job for the restlessness of leggy teenagers. Behind that is a fair-sized boot that can be extended by folding up one or all of the five back seats. The cheapest in the range is the D5 Momentum priced at £50,435. But personally I would go for D5 Inscrip’ Pro, nearly ten grand more, but with very top spec and a just about everything you need to hand, to hold a front running lead over of its rivals. XC90?

Crime Reduction NEIL CLARKE, 13362 CRIME REDUCTION ADVISOR EASTERN DIVISION

In spite of many people taking sensible precautions to protect their homes and property, we have seen a disappointing rise in the number of reports received relating to domestic burglaries. The key points to remember is that burglars like to work unobserved and as quickly as possible. Most burglars tend to be opportunistic; i.e. they see a vulnerable property and take a chance on seeing if they can gain easy access to steal. The majority of burglars gain access from insecure premises via the ground floor at the rear of a property so; the simplest deterrent is to make these common access points as secure as possible. Obviously, this means ensuring that doors and windows are securely locked when you are not at home but there are some other simple things to consider which can make your home less “desirable” as a target. The first is the external visibility of your home. A clear line of sight from the roadside to the front of your home is a natural deterrent as there is a reduced opportunity for a burglar to work unobserved. Also, the installation of some simple dusk till dawn lighting at the front of your property removes pools of shadow which are very popular with burglars who want to avoid being seen. I don’t mean motion activated high intensity lighting - just low-level lighting that provides good visibility and conveys an impression that your home is occupied. Side gates need to be high enough to deter climbing and preferably secured with bolts or a padlock lower down on the door or gate, to minimise the chances of someone being able to lean over and unbolt the gate. Avoid placing wheelie bins near back gates too, as they make a very useful climbing aid.

54 LookLocal Magazine - June 2019

Consider registering your property on a free National database such as Immobilise. This is a secure system where you can register any of your property and even upload photographs of items. Check out Immobilise. com or contact your local Safer Neighbourhood Team, who can provide guidance and practical support in getting you started with registering your property. You could also consider using forensic property marking on any items of value, from laptops and bikes to paintings and jewellery. When any items are recovered from suspects of burglaries, it is checked to see if there is any forensic marking on items and this is a really helpful way of getting items returned to their rightful owners. With garden sheds, always make sure that they are locked and secured, preferably with a sturdy padlock and consider painting any gardening equipment with your postcode and house number. This makes items far less desirable to a would-be thief. If you are considering installing an alarm system, I would suggest that you get a few quotes and check out the advice available on the National Security Insepctorate’s website www.nis.org.uk, which can give impartial information about the various types of alarm systems that are available. Even a simple audible alarm, with clear signage to show that you have a security system in place is an excellent deterrent. If you would like further advice or even a free, impartial home security review then you can always contact me direct, either by phone to 101 Extension 30809, or by email to Neil.Clarke@surrey.pnn.police.uk

POEM CORNER Ode To Teresa Doing a temping job - share at the offices of Esso, in Leatherhead. May 2000 Without Teresa where would we be, Two temps from Reed, Margaret and me? “My cursor’s stuck, Outlook’s hazy, This wretched table’s driving me crazy!” Pleas for help, where? And how? What happens to this “send out” now? The sums on “Expenses” don’t agree, Where’s Augusta? What’s PMT? From this confusion there emanates A quiet voice that simply states, The solution and though up to her eyes, Always stops to help and advise. Margaret and I would’ve been up the creek, Without your help week after week. So a very big “Thank you”!

25th Anniversary Celebration

On Thursday 25th April at Woodlands Park Hotel, Dyscover celebrated it’s 25th Anniversary (Actual birthday 27th April) They were celebrating 25 years of Dyscover, a local specialist aphasia charity, set up by the charity’s founder and president, Gill Jackson MBE to offer people with this life changing, long term and complex speech & language condition, on-going support. Friends and supporters of Dyscover attended the afternoon tea fundraiser. The 118 guests included Mayor Shweta Kapadia and her husband, Consort Ramesh Kapadia from Elmbridge, Chairman Raj Haque of Mole Valley District Council and Mayor and Mayoress Neil and Ann Dallen as well as original volunteers and very early beneficiaries of the organisation. Guests enjoyed a Pimms and elderflower drinks reception with jazz musicians ‘Rag A Jazz’ playing in the background. Traditional afternoon tea was served after a brave and humbling presentation from Suzie Cope, who

described to the audience how acquiring aphasia at aged 45 has impacted her life and family and how with the support of Dyscover she has been able to overcome many of the barriers this condition presents and is now able to volunteer for Dyscover as a ‘Buddy’ to new beneficiaries joining one of Dyscover’s speech therapist led support groups. The tea was accompanied by some singers who enlivened the audience, ready for an auction which included a 3 ball at Wisley golf club, a champagne canal trip and Cocktails at Zedel Brasserie in Soho. The celebration ended with a fantastic raffle with both the auction and raffle raising over £1800! Dyscover were thrilled with the local support this event generated and are keen make strong community links in and around Leatherhead following their HQ move to Leatherhead Court in 2018. For anyone interested in volunteering, fund raising, getting involved or to find out more about what Dyscover can offer visit www.dyscover.org.uk

BOOKHAM LIBRARY

Summer Reading Challenge volunteers at Bookham Library Each summer we recruit volunteers aged between 14-25 to help us run the annual Summer Reading Challenge - where children of primary school age sign up to read at least six library books over the school holidays and collect incentives along the way. It’s a busy time for libraries and we appreciate your help. In this role, you would encourage children to read more by talking to them about their books, help with events and activities, sign children up to the challenge and give them rewards for reading. It is a great way to get experience for your CV and our volunteers have a lot of fun. You can apply to be a Summer Reading Challenge volunteer on the Surrey Libraries Website using the Expression of interest form. The Space Chase Summer Reading Challenge runs Saturday 13 July to Saturday 21 September 2019. Bookham Library have a wide range of travel books, stories and language books and CDs to help you with your plans for a holiday break. If we don’t have a book of your destination on our shelves, you can do an on line request for a book from another Surrey Library for 75p. We frequently change our special displays of items so do come in regularly to browse and borrow items.
