Welcome to the November issue of Look Local!
I guess it can’t be avoided for much longer, it will soon be the Christmas shopping season for real! I have a friend who, every year since I’ve known her, gets all her Christmas shopping not only done, but also wrapped up by the end of October. And every year, I think, how odd, and then a few weeks later, I’m really jealous, as I’m rushing about trying to get everything done and not miss anybody out. So this year - and yes, I know that I have already missed the end of October - I am going to aim for the end of November which will be a big step forward on previous years! I’ll let you know how I get on next month! We have an exciting ‘scoop’ this month, with news of a very prestigious London restaurant which is due to arrive nearby in Cobham shortly, and there are lots of Christmas fairs coming up locally. A date for your diary: 10 December, when the Weybridge Town Business Group hosts a fab Christmas event in town from 10am – 4pm – see inside for details. There is a great competition on page 22, with the chance to win a new book by motor racing legend, Damon Hill! Good luck to all who enter. Maybe this will be your first Christmas present ticked off the list if you win! And don’t forget to enter the Not Just Silver Competition Crossword Puzzle while you’re at it too! I’m running out of space here so I’ll sign off now. Have a great November, Weybridge. Warm regards

ASK BRUCE:
GRASS SEED DILEMMA Reader Roger Trevit-Jones’ black labrador recently had an operation to remove a grass seed that had embedded in his paw and worked its way up his leg. Roger asks, ‘how can I stop this happening again?’ Grass seeds in dog paws are very common, regardless of the breed. In fact, flat-coated labradors are more likely to encounter them than their furrier friends, the labradoodles. If found quickly and removed straight away, however, they don’t usually present a problem. But prevention is better than cure. Avoid walking your dog in places with very long grass – if you can see it bending in the wind, it will probably be long enough to host seeds which could fall off into your dog’s paws. We deliberately keep our grass shorter than this at doggy day care to stop the grass seeding, and also to keep ticks at bay, as they love long grass.Walking in woodlands or in managed parks with short neat grass are great alternatives. After every walk, ensure you wash down and wipe your dog’s legs and feet and check their paws thoroughly, including underneath and on the top of the webbing between each toe. If you notice they are limping, the chances are the seed is already embedded, so take your dog straight to your vet. A more extreme solution is purchasing doggy boots. But personally, I’m not a big fan of these and neither are most dogs I know! Bruce Casalis is director & founder of Bruce’s Doggy Day Care, a multi-award winning business in Weybridge.

FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH
aving spotted some work being done recently at Bruce’s Doggy Day Care in Cobham, I was keen to pop in and see what’s been happening since my last visit. First opened in 2009, the Bruce’s Doggy Day Care Cobham site has grown from a couple of huts and a few acres to the sophisticated, purpose-built 25-acre day care centre of today. It now boasts a total of five fields, each five acres in size, all with their own heated Scandinavian log cabins. There is a brand new reception and office, dog grooming parlour and a nursery area for puppies and small dogs. The site has also welcomed 10 new members of staff and three new doggy buses. When I chatted to Bruce, he said: “After opening our second site in nearby Ripley last year, it was time to turn our attention back to Cobham. Given business has been booming, with waiting lists for our services, it made sense to expand. Our day care centres have 32 staff and over 500 dogs of all shapes and sizes. Now we have expanded, we hope
to welcome another 300 dogs into our care.” The canine customers are collected in special airconditioned doggy buses from their homes in catchment areas around London** and Surrey*. They then spend the day at Bruce’s Doggy Day Care facilities having fun with their four-legged friends before being driven home, tired and happy. Proof that dogs can be a part of the lives of busy people, including full-time workers and commuters. It was a real pleasure to see the dogs having such a wonderful time. It never fails to amaze me how this fabulous care facility just keeps on going from strength to strength. They really do offer the ‘Gold Standard’ when it comes to canine care. Congratulations, Team Bruce! You should be very proud of your newly refurbished and extended facilities. Look Local highly recommends Bruce’s Doggy Day Care.

Seat Ateca
CAR REVIEW Ted Macauley test drives Seat’s first SUV, the Ateca, and lets us know all about what it has to offer...
M
y annual pilgrimage to Italy’s temple of grand prix racing to write up the showcase event is a perennial commuting problem, all of it my own fault and choice. That is because I prefer to live it up 90 minutes away from the Monza autodrome in one of the country’s finest, most stylish stopovers, the Lake Como-side Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni, Bellagio. Five-star plus…and that has been my choice - and my utter joy - for more than 25yrs. So much so, and so welcoming, that it is where Trophy Wife and I were married 13 years back. But getting to and from the circuit, travelling the perilously narrow and twisty waterside roads, always populated by corner-cutting, risk-taking motor bikes and cars with drivers who fancy their chances, has forever been a threat. It is not only vital to undertake the journey in the safety of a car burly enough to match anything that might, God forbid, hit it, but in one that exudes the sort of style and panache that show-off Italians love to drive, ride and be seen in. Over the years, I have enjoyed a variety of motors that all answered the above requisites and were familiar. This time round, I ventured on to completely new ground in a car I had
SPECIFICATION: Engine: 1.4TSI SE.BHP:150. Top speed 124mph. 0-60mph in 8.5 seconds. MPG 52.3. Price £21,015. never even seen before. Chancy? Yes. But as it turned out it was my ideal partner. And what’s more, it revels in a five-star, ten-out-of-ten rating on the safety issue. It is the brand new Seat Ateca, the company’s first SUV, and based on the tried-and-tested Volkswagen platform, sharing a lot with the VW Tiguan, if a wee bit more petite. A proper crossover. It enters a massively contested market with well-established rivals galore, the product of Seat’s most recent update, market awareness and refocus not to be left behind in the chase for SUV superiority. And crucially, it boasts an attentiongripping starting price, allied to one of the best fuel economy returns of all. What more would you want? Okay, I know, the next question is: what is it like to drive? Here, I return to my commuting for four days to and from Monza, near Milan. It was perfectly behaved, an absolute treat. It drives well. It copes superbly and efficiently with the twists, bumps, ruts and smoother bits, and, as it had to undertake sharp braking for tight, blind corners, it responds contentedly and turns in as nippily as you want. Its dashboard showcase may not be as informative as, say, the Tiguan or a few other SUVs, but it is adequate, with big clear, logical dials
and an easy-to-operate and understand touchscreen feedback. All viewed from cushy seats with ample leg room for six-footers like me and our passengers. And just to make your journey, long or short, more acceptable, there are optional driver aids, such as full LED headlights, surround-view cameras and radar cruise. During traffic jam stops-and-goes, it will self-speed-up, self-brake and self-steer. So sit back and relax… which is exactly what I did. What to me does seem a bit stingy and mealy, despite Seat’s reputation for reliability, is the Ateca’s three year and 60,000 miles warranty when you measure it against the Kia Sportage’s seven-year, 100,000 mile warranty and Hyundai’s five-year unlimited mileage back-up for the Tucson. But hey, the tot-up of the plus points and its basic kerbside appeal, with handsome looks and a profile to admire, will make it a target for those of us with a keen sense of value for our outlay. It is destined to be a surefire winner, like Nico Rosberg was, ahead of three times champion Lewis Hamilton. This was all before my return trip, and there were envious glances towards the new baby Ateca as I parked proudly alongside the Rollers, Ferraris and Maseratis in front of the Serbelloni.

competition Answer the following question for the chance to win a copy of Damon Hill’s book “Watching the Wheels”
To emerge from the shadows of a famous and heroic father who was a double world champion and to take up where he left off was Damon Hill’s destiny after the tragic death of his dad Graham in an air crash. And to his complete credit, Damon, the only son ever of a Formula One champion to be champion too, has written an allaction and completely candid close-up of the trials and tribulations of his grand prix career. It is entitled “Watching the Wheels”, published by Pan MacMillan at £20, as a mark of his coronation as F1 king in 1996. I was there with him when he secured the title in Japan, writing as a columnist for the
Daily Mirror. Damon, a late entry into F1 at 32, won 22 of his 106 races, with 42 podiums and 20 pole placings, and he faced formidable race geniuses such as Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher. Now the exciting rerun of his life on and off the track, all penned by himself and in his own words, is a winner. Just like him. And I would like to offer a hardback copy of his book as a prize to be enjoyed and treasured. Answer the following question and it could be yours : Who was Damon driving for when he won the world championship?

HERE’S A MOUTH WATERING SCOOP TO SHOW THAT EXCLUSIVE NEWS IS NOT A FLEET STREET PREROGATIVE. I can reveal that one of the world’s best known celeb hotspots, an eatery of renown and fine quality, is planning to open up in Cobham’s High Street. The Ivy, central to the West End’s theatreland, has taken the first steps to seeking planning permission for a spring 2017 opening at what used to be La Rive. The umbrella company, Caprice, through The Ivy Collection, wants to refurb and open a cafe-style brasserie with all-day dining, open seven days a week. The art deco Ivy, with its smart-casual (no shorts) dress code, ranks alongside its super-class culinary cousins, Scotts, Sheekeys, Daphne and Le Caprice among others, as a glam stopover. And that is the style aim of this very, very welcome newcomer.

Plant VARIEGATION
In plain English, a variegated plant is one that has two or more colours on its leaves, but its route to this colourful state of affairs is not so simple. There are two distinct types of variegation and understanding these will give you added clues on how to care for your plant more efficiently.
T
he first type is pigment variegation, where the nongreen parts of the leaf lack chlorophyll. Sometimes these parts have no pigments at all and look white, but more often, there are other pigments present, so they look cream or yellow. Orange, yellow and light green leaf colours result from a lesser production of the green pigment chlorophyll, unmasking the orange carotenoid and yellow xanthophyll pigments and allowing them to appear. Shades of pink, red and purple are the result of anthocyanin pigments. If produced in sufficient quantities, they can mask even the green chlorophyll. This lack of pigment is a mutation, but the precise pattern depends on where this mutation occurs. Before I tie you up in genetic knots, suffice it to say that the pattern of non-green tissue will be totally random, and like a human fingerprint, there will not be an exact match to be found. There are many garden plants that fall into this variegation type - holly, eleagnus, variegated dogwood, the favourite houseplant the weeping fig, etc...I could go on.
The second type of variegation is called structural variegation. Although the leaves may be highly coloured, no plant pigments are involved at all. The patterns are caused by an air-filled gap between the outer epidermis of the leaf and its chlorophyll-containing cells underneath. It’s exploiting a phenomenon known as total internal reflection, when light passes from a dense medium (with a high refractive index) to a less dense one (with a lower refractive index). Lovely examples here are the range of patterns with cyclamen, where the variegation on each leaf of a single plant will be identical. The king of structural variegation must be any
one of the Begonia rex cultivars. If you have any pigment-variegated plants in your garden, you must look out for the plant/s producing stems with all green leaves. This is called reversion, and if you don’t remove these quickly, you could be left with an all-green plant. A plus is that a variegated plant will grow less vigorously than an all-green one – a useful feature for a small garden. Plants with structural variegation are more stable, and if you are propagating from stem, leaf or root cuttings, you will end up with an exact match of the parent plant. There are other reasons why a plant produces yellow in its leaves, but that is a conversation for another day!

www.wonderyearsrock.com Virginia Water-based ‘The Wonderyears’ are delighted to have been invited to perform to raise funds again for Surrey North Area Cruse on 11th November at 7.45pm at Heathside School, Weybridge.
W
ith an average age of 70 and the oldest at 90, The Wonderyears are the UK’s oldest Seniors Rock Chorus and Band. The traditional view of grandparents is soon shattered when they start to belt out hard rock and punk as well as contemporary pop. Since their formation in 2007, The Wonderyears have not only performed in many venues in the UK but have also been filmed for national TV and were quarter finalists in Britain’s Got Talent 2012. The Wonderyears have raised many £thousands for charities. Founder and Musical Director, Dave Thomas, says that ‘life truly begins at 70.’ ‘The Wonderyears demonstrate very powerfully that just because you qualify for a bus pass and a winter
fuel allowance, you are not ‘over the hill.’ ‘Their performances are both inspirational and entertaining and leave audiences with the feel good factor.’ CRUSE Bereavement Care Surrey North Area has its office base in Chertsey and covers the Boroughs of Runnymede, Spelthorne, Elmbridge and Woking. They offer support, advice and information to children, young people and adults when someone dies and to enhance society’s care of bereaved people. Surrey North Area needs to obtain funding of £30,000 per year to operate. This is made up of some grant funding and donations from clients who have received support but the shortfall has to be made up from fundraising.
26 Looklocal Magazine - November 2016
Last year, their volunteers gave nearly 10,000 hours to help 320 people in the community, a testimony to the need for this service. They provide one-to-one support, group support and children and young persons’ support. Plans are also being drawn up to provide email and telephone support. Please show your support by going along to this concert on November 11th 2016 at 7.45pm at Heathside School, Brooklands Lane, Weybridge, KT13 8UZ. Tickets are £10.00 per person available from the CRUSE Office at 6 The Sainsbury Centre, Chertsey, KT16 9AG or by calling 01932 571167 / 07752 396780 or email to surreynorth@cruse.org.uk/betty. greenwood@ntlworld.com

OF THE MONTH
KNIVES OUT FOR FAWKES
Patterned strands of silver pearls sear a wintry night Reflected in a thousand starry eyes Banshee cries and siren whines crackle and ignite But as I stand in awe I wonder why? How did the nation’s celebrations garner such a name As Guy Fawkes Night? It comes as a surprise Fawkes was only one of thirteen men whose evil aim Was to bring about King James 1st’s demise Robert Catesby led the ring, a dozen by his side But time has hid the names you’ll never hear History has hung the blame and spread it countrywide On just one plotter’s head, it would appear Sir Everard Digby was another plotter to remember So what if English history had him starred? We’d celebrate Everard Digby Night each fifth day of November And on every burning stack... an Everard! Erm? No... best we stick with Guy!

Words by David Kid Jensen
The story behind a seasonal song Merry Christmas Everybody from Slade entered the astonishingly competitive chart in 1973, went straight in at Number 1 and went on to sell 1 and a quarter million copies. Having songs go straight to Number 1 was a rare accolade then: it was the first time that a song shot straight to the top, making the accomplishment even more special, because this was the first occurrence since the Beatles hit the top of the survey in 1969 with Get Back. Not bad when you consider that Noddy Holder, along with bassist Jimmy Lea and the legendary producer Chas Chandler, manager of Jimi Hendrix, based the melody from discarded songs written 6 years before. This success happened while Slade were at their peak of their powers, having chalked up 5 Number 1s before Merry Xmas was born. Incredibly, the organisation for monitoring air play and ensuring that compers received their fair dues told Slade that up to 42% of the world’s population could have listened to their song. The song was actually recorded in late summer at the Record Plant in New York City, right next door to where John Lennon was recording his album Mind Games. Jimmy reflected on his vision of the track, in which he wanted to remind people of a traditional British Christmas. “Economically, the UK was up the creek. The miners had been on strike, along with grave diggers, bakers and almost everybody else. I think people wanted something to cheer them up – and so did I. That’s why I came up with the line ‘Look to the future now, it’s only just begun.’ Once I got the line ‘Does your Granny always tell you that the old ones are the best’, I knew I’d got a right cracker on my hands.� A lovely understatement.

Inspiration!
now what
WAS I DOING...?
My mother passed down to me her own mother’s advice never to go upstairs empty handed, which is good thinking if you happen to live in a large house. And although I don’t have four flights of stairs to contend with as she did, I still look around for anything that needs to go up or down.
T
he trouble is, sometimes I take whatever it is upstairs, and, thinking I’ve fulfilled my mission, come straight down again. Other times, I might notice a couple of things that need to be done while I’m up there and in a fit of efficiency, get them done and dusted. Great. I’ve ticked things off my to-do list before they’d even got onto it! Or maybe not so great. Maybe they hadn’t got on to it for a good reason – they weren’t priorities! The way we do anything is the way we do everything If we often allow ourselves to get sidetracked, we might end up feeling frustrated that we “never have time” for the things we want to do. In reality, it’s a choice: when we don’t consciously choose or re-choose our priorities in these moments of distraction, we’re actually choosing to let unimportant things fill our time instead of the things we really want to achieve. We might have a Big Dream, an Exciting Ambition, or an Important Goal. Life being what it is, it goes and throws other things in our path. Now what? Do we ditch the plan and just go with whatever comes along? Do we ignore all distractions as they’re not part of our original plan? Or is there a middle path? Two things that can help: Priorities and Focus If we know what our priorities are – Our Dream, Ambition, Goal – and we’re able to keep our focus on our priorities, then even if we get sidetracked, we: (i) will know we’re going off-course (ii) can keep our priorities in mind while we do other stuff, and
(iii) can choose to bring ourselves back on track when we’re done, or consciously change track. It could be that we’ve found a better goal, or a more effective or enjoyable way of fulfilling our original objective. Alternatively, we might just be goal-hopping (aka Shiny Object Syndrome) as a way of avoiding commitment and completion. Will this diversion really be worth the cost? We’re the only ones who can decide that for ourselves. As someone who always has lots of ideas and projects running around in my head, I struggled with this over the years, so I know all about it! Here’s to being aware and choosing consciously.
