I hope you are all keeping well and that you have managed to enjoy the abundant sunshine over the past few weeks! It’s certainly been a sizzling summer this year if nothing else ! As restrictions are now lifting in the UK and life is beginning to return to a more recognisable state, maybe some of you have even been lucky enough to get away for a summer break? ‘Staycations’ have been more popular than ever this year for obvious reasons, and I’m sure many have realised, maybe for the first time, that the UK shorelines have so much to offer. Personally, some of my favourite holiday memories have been made on UK beaches; Cornwall / Wales / Norfolk all are stunning and we are very lucky to live on this beautiful island ! We are getting back in the swing of things here at Look Local and we are doing our best to find some interesting inclusions for you to enjoy; we have a really great book competition for you to take a look at, see page 8 for more information and good luck to all who enter. Also included, a feature on a lovely local artist; if you have a wall that needs cheering up her work will certainly add a bright and modern feel to any home, beautiful work Samantha Peace, see page 14 for more on that. If you own a smart phone, we share details on a fabulous locator app which is being used by many, including the emergency services. Do take a look on page 22 for this, it's fascinating and could even save your life one day! A little note regarding Elmbridge Parking Charges on page 24, which is also worth taking note of ! Enough from me for this month, stay well and I wish all the school returners/starters the very best in the coming month. Best Regards,

TWO SUMMERS

A Surrey resident has revisited the ‘trip of a lifetime’ road trip around America he took 50 years ago – and his adventures are now published in a book published this month.

he book, Two Summers; Nixon and Trump by Greyhound Bus, has been praised by BBC journalist and books editor James Naughtie as ‘a lovely evocation of heady times in America’. Tim Albert took the first trip in 1969 when a student at Surrey University, and kept a detailed diary of his adventures. Last summer, by then a semi-retired journalist living in Leatherhead, he went back on the buses again. ‘The idea crept up on me unexpectedly when I was at the dentist,’ he says. ‘It was such a good idea that I felt I had to do it, even though I was worried that what I did without a second thought at the age of 22 would prove to be too much for my 72-year-old body. But I planned the 60 day route carefully, making sure I slept each night in a bed and not on a bus. Greyhound Bus travel has changed a lot in half a century, he says. The buses are more comfortable and generally on time, but there is one big change. ‘In 1969 I met all kinds of people – students, teachers, farmers, architects, soldiers going to and from the Vietnam war. This time on the buses I spoke to hardly anyone – they are all glued to their mobile phones’. He adds: ‘2019 was a fascinating time to be travelling around America – I realise now that it could have been the last summer of its kind that we shall see for some time. At times it felt like I was travelling through two parallel universes with two widely different populations. Some people told me that the President

was an incompetent liar; others that he was the only politician who told the truth. And a chief of police remarked that we had to be careful we weren’t “living through the last days of the Roman Republic”.’ One major difference from 1969 was the prevalence of guns. ‘I remember being shocked in 1969 by seeing policemen carrying guns everywhere. Now they’re everywhere. I even found myself being offered an AK-47 on my mobile phone. ‘One thing has not changed, however, and that is the kindness of individual Americans. I witnessed some extraordinary acts of kindness, and one morning I asked two ladies where I could find lunch and they started to look into their purses to give me money!’ More information on the author and the book can be found on www.timalbert.co.uk Two Summers; Nixon & Trump by Greyhound Bus is available from: Wishing Well, High Street, Bookham KT23 4BN – 01372 459969 Cobham Bookshop, 12A, Anyards Road, Cobham KT11 2JZ – 01932 862903

no-bake chocolate wafer cheesecake This no-bake, easy recipe is perfect to whip up anytime for family and friends. The combination of smooth creamy filling on top of a crunchy biscuit and chocolate wafer base is hard to resist!

ingredients

method

80g unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for greasing 150g digestive biscuits 5 KitKat Original bars, split into 10 fingers 150ml whipping cream 150g dark chocolate, roughly chopped 180g tub Philadelphia Soft Cheese 50g icing sugar 100g Greek natural strained yogurt Â˝ tsp vanilla bean paste

1. Grease the base and sides of a 20cm loose-bottomed cake tin and line with baking parchment. Whizz the digestives and 4 KitKat fingers to crumbs in a food processor, then mix with the melted butter. Press evenly into the tin, smoothing with the back of a spoon. Chill while you make the filling. 2. Heat the cream in a pan to just before boiling. Take off the heat, add the chocolate and set aside for 2 minutes, then stir to combine. Meanwhile, with a wooden spoon, beat the soft cheese, icing sugar, yogurt and vanilla together until combined. Mix into the chocolate-cream mixture, a large spoonful at a time, until combined. 3. Tip the chocolate mixture over the base and smooth the top, then chill for at least 6 hours but ideally overnight. To serve, lift the cheesecake from the tin and remove the parchment, then place on a serving plate. Decorate with the remaining 6 KitKat fingers before serving.

(Serves 12)

Dip your cake knife into just-boiled water, dry with a tea towel and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find it cuts through cleanly.

Need care but are worried about Covid-19? Visiting Angels are continuing to deliver vital care and support in the community. However we understand that Covid-19 is a major concern for our clients and their families. Visiting Angels have always had robust infection control measures in place. This coupled with the additional infection control training we have provided our caregivers, means that you can be assured they will continue to deliver meticulous standards of hygiene and cleanliness when providing care and support. Our high staff retention means that our care teams are consistent. Fewer people coming in to provide care gives the best possible protection from infection. Because our clients choose their caregiver and the same caregiver comes each week, you can be sure that even in the uncertainty of the current situation, there will always be the comfort of a familiar face.

We can help with activities ranging from shopping and companionship, to personal care, hospital discharge support and end of life care.

PAINTING THE

silver lining As a Headhunter in the advertising industry we’ve been hit badly by the pandemic. Like so many others, overnight, I went from working long busy days in London to having all our clients simultaneously slamming the brakes on. I’ve always known that I would be happier having more time at home with my girls and focussing more on my art but I didn’t quite expect it to happen so abruptly. At first I think I went into a sort of slow state of shock. What if we can’t afford the mortgage? What about our fragile parents? Surely I can’t look after the children full-time? That was never the plan! And home-school the dyslexic one who’s 8 going on 18? With a toddler in tow? No thanks. I drank too much, shouted a lot and cried whenever I got 2 minutes to sit down. But something happened. Amongst the darkness and the uncertainty, I realised that this was an opportunity not to be missed. I’ve always been a painter, ever since I could remember. It was my childhood dream to be an artist - but who really gets to do that as a real life grown up job? Every so often one of my friends will commission me to do a piece for them but now I had the chance to really make something of this. I paint in the morning when there is not a sound; lockdown peace was beautiful. I would paint for 2 hours before someone asked me to make them breakfast, or wipe their bum. When I became confident enough to play with the home-schooling timetable we all did art together, every day, in the garden. The endless bike rides, picnics in meadows and walks along the rivers that the lockdown offered us only fed my mind with new inspiration. Family life entwined with my work. I produced lots of pieces and could experiment with techniques now that I had the time and the clarity of mind to do so. I was properly living in the here and now for the first time. During the last few months I’ve moved my hobby up a gear to proper artist territory and making a (sort of) living, and it is the best thing that could have happened. So, hopefully, this is my silver lining to this dark, heavy cloud, and I can continue on this journey that maybe, just maybe, I was meant to be on all along. So please do check out my art and get in touch if you’re interested in adding a little bit of happiness to your walls. 10% of each purchase will be donated to Mind, a charity which will be much in need and one that I wholly support. We must protect our mental health. In the meantime, perhaps think about reigniting your own passion – that’s how I’ve protected mine.

Book Reviews SEPTEMBER 2020

Deep as Death by Katja Ivar (paperback £8.99) This is Helsinki, March 1953, an unusually long and cold winter, frozen seas everywhere. A young woman goes missing and this is a chance for Hella Mauzer, the first ever woman inspector in Helsinki, to prove herself. She is a heartbroken PI demoted from homicide, a department too busy to take on this case so she gets her chance. Then more women go missing and what begins as a taut whodunnit turns into something more tantalising. A good read especially for all Scandi crime fans out there.

The Beauty and the Terror: An Alternative History of the Italian Renaissance by Catherine Fletcher (hardback £25) Even the Introduction to this book, a glimpse into 1492, gave me a sense of immersion. The fascinating relationship between the Popes, Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain and their Inquisition, the persecution of the Jews throughout Europe, the political impact of Lorenzo de Medici’s death and the voyages of Christopher Columbus, all made me want to read on and discover the less well known stories that Fletcher promises to tell. I’m almost finished and am learning much about this turbulent and creative period and enjoying Fletcher’s gripping narrative voice.

The Most Fun We Ever Had by Claire Lombardo (paperback £8.99) This was the most enjoyable debut I read last year (in hardback). It’s a portrait of Marilyn and David Sorenson and their four daughters who are rocked by the arrival of a teenage boy secretly given up for adoption years earlier. A perfect summer read – I was sorry when I finished it.

In July, emergency services up and down the country pledged their support for the ‘ground-breaking’ technology which has been credited with saving thousands of lives across the UK with calls for the public to download the free location app – so they’re ready to give a what3words address in the event of an emergency. what3words has divided the world into a grid of 3m x 3m squares. It has given each square a unique combination of three words - a what3words address. For example: ///tortoises.swarm.announce, will take you to a precise location on Ben Nevis where in February 2020 a group of hikers were rescued. The app is free to download for both iOS and Android and works offline – making it ideal for use in areas of the UK with an unreliable data connection. what3words can also be used via the online map at what3words.com. The technology is available in over 40 languages, including Welsh, and can be used anywhere in the world. After successfully piloting with a selection of forces in 2019, what3words is now used by over 80 per cent of UK emergency services. ‘Where’s the emergency?’ is one of the first questions asked when calling 999. But saying exactly where help is needed can be challenging. Services often can’t detect where you are automatically and dropped pins are difficult to explain over the phone. Landmark-based descriptions are prone to errors and GPS coordinates are long and difficult to communicate. At best, this is a 22 LookLocal - SEPTEMBER 2020

frustrating drain on resources. At worst, it can mean the difference between life and death. Trevor Baldwin, Yorkshire Ambulance Service’s Head of EOC Service Development, is one of the 97 UK services which use the technology for free and said many 999 callers had already used the technology to help identify their location. He added: “Having this type of technology integrated within our Emergency Operations Centre system has changed the way we are able to deal with incidents where the location isn’t known. Asking people questions about their location when they have little knowledge of an area takes time and responses aren’t always that accurate. Asking for a what3words address or sending an SMS so they can easily provide their three-word address, means that we can save valuable time locating incidents.” Data from 15 services shows the vast spectrum of cases where what3words addresses have been used, with road traffic accidents, locating vulnerable people and breathing difficulties cited for being amongst the most common reasons “A 999 call could be one of the worst times of your life. Having to provide additional directions when you’re under immense stress and the clock is ticking is something that we want everyone to avoid. You never know when an emergency might happen, but with what3words, you’ll always be able to say exactly where help is needed - quickly and easily.” Chris Sheldrick, co-founder and CEO of what3words.

Parking charges to be reintroduced from 1st September Parking charges are set to be reintroduced in all Elmbridge Borough Council car parks on 1 September, as lockdown measures continue to ease and an increasing number of people return to shopping in our towns and village centres. Charges in all council-run car parks were suspended in March to support Elmbridge residents and key workers during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. Free parking has continued while local high streets have reopened, helping businesses to recover their client base. The car parks will continue to offer free parking over the summer, up until the end of August. From 1 September, you can pay online or by mobile phone with RingGo or use the pay and display machines. Saturday free parking offers will stay in place to support local high streets and businesses. Please check the signs in car parks.

Are You Ready for Pregnancy? Being healthy before you start trying for a baby can help your chances of conceiving and going on to have a happy and healthy pregnancy and birth. Making a few small changes to your lifestyle can make a big difference for you and your baby. NHS health and care services across Surrey have come together to launch a 12-month campaign called #ReadyforPregnancy to raise awareness of things women and their partners can do before conception to improve fertility, pregnancy health and their baby’s future health. Eating healthily and watching your weight Eating a healthy, nutritious diet is especially important if you’re planning a pregnancy. Your baby relies on you to provide the right balance of nutrients to help them grow and develop properly even after they are born. By aiming for a healthy weight, you increase your chances of conceiving naturally and having a healthy pregnancy and baby. Being overweight when you become pregnant can affect the way your baby develops in the womb and it also increases the risk of miscarriage. Going smoke-free Quitting smoking is the most important thing you and your partner can do to give your baby the best start in life. If you are planning a pregnancy or are already expecting, talk to your GP practice, midwife or local stop smoking service about the support available for both of you to quit. Getting in to shape If you’re not used to exercising, or haven’t done any in a while, now is a good time to start. Try starting with 10 minutes of daily activity and build up to 30 minutes each day. The more active and fit you are during pregnancy, the easier it will be for you to adapt to your changing shape and weight gain. It will also help you to cope with labour and get back into shape after the birth. Taking food supplements Taking a folic acid supplement when you are trying to conceive until you’re 12 weeks pregnant is really beneficial. It can reduce the risk of problems in your baby’s development in the early weeks of pregnancy and lessen birth defects such as spina bifida. The NHS recommends taking 400 micrograms of folic acid every day as well as eating foods that contain folate such as leafy green vegetables. Find out more about preparing for your pregnancy by searching online for ‘Ready for Pregnancy Surrey’ and #ReadyForPregnancy on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Inspiration!

Get out - or get real! Does your brain ever have intruders, slipping in to steal your serenity, leaving behind at best, a feeling of unease or at worst, temporary devastation? Do your thoughts ever get hijacked by unpleasant memories, or derailed by fears of what will probably never happen? I know what that’s like. My brain used to be an open house to random and even disturbing thoughts. Thoughts that dropped in, reminded me of bad times, and left me feeling vulnerable. Thoughts that led to other thoughts that took me into a downward spiral from which it was hard to climb out. Thoughts that were so loud I couldn’t hear anything else (even the truth!). And thoughts about things that hadn’t even happened, as though I had a crystal ball (and funnily enough, it never seemed to see anything nice!). Nowadays, most of my thoughts are allowed in by invitation only. I want them to show me reality, opportunities rather than obstacles, to add value to my life and the lives of others, and to bring out the best in me. I’m still happy for thoughts to drop in, as long as they’re well behaved, good fun to hang out with, leave when I want them to, and take their baggage home with them! How about you? Do your thoughts energise and inspire you, or leave you in a tailspin of despondency and despair? How to get back on track when things seem to be falling apart Focus on one physical sensation for 10 seconds. (In the May issue, I mentioned that we call these PQ Reps.) fMRI scans have shown that this shift of attention, from thoughts of fear, worry or anger to something real, tangible and neutral in the present, can change the way the brain functions in the moment. Repeated regularly over time, this contributes to mental fitness, helping us choose which thoughts to entertain in our heads.

Some simple examples of PQ Reps – close your eyes and: • focus on a distant sound • feel your feet on the floor • wriggle your toes and be aware of each toe • label your thoughts each time you realise they’ve shifted • rub two fingers of one hand together so lightly you can feel the ridges on your fingertips • pay close attention to the sensations of washing your hands for 20 seconds – (that’s two PQ Reps!!) Do 100 PQ Reps a day for a month. That’s just over three minutes, five times a day. You can do them anywhere, waiting for the kettle to boil, in the bathroom ... Drop me a line to tell me what you notice – I’d love to hear from you. My clients are having great success with PQ Reps. You can too! Keep repping,

ŠKODA

OCTAVIA Reviewed by Ted Macauley The four-wheeled Estate car market place is awash with great deals, cars to suit every pocket and taste with economy a crucial priority. And right at the top end of all that is my unfailing choice as a bargain....the mainstay of the Skoda line-up, the fine and dandy Octavia Estate. It is the Mk 4 in the splendidly, generously spaced hatchback and estate forms and shapes, with a newly stretched length between the front and rear axles, bequeathing our deserving custom far more interior space than its predecessors. A wee bit longer too, so that it can accommodate extra safety add-ons and carefully thought out driver aids, to make it even roomier than before. Over the past decades Skoda’s clever backroom bods have carved out a distinctive niche - and the Czech firm has now set itself an enviable reputation for sensible, and the comfiest of cars that are much, much more spacious, with elbow room aplenty, especially for the driver who will genuinely feel the benefit on the longest of treks either on smooth motorways or bumpier by-passes and country lanes. Despite having the same power output as before, as lots of you will realise, the 148 bhp diesel fitted to the Octavia Estate has been throughly and heavily revised with vastly improved CO2 emission and welcome fuel economy. Performance is strong, with acceleration feeling a good deal brisker that its claimed 8.8 sec to 0-62 mph time. The engine is so versatile and responsive that you don’t have to thrash it to stir a reasonable uplift in its pace. 30 LookLocal - SEPTEMBER 2020

Take my advice: ease off the accelerator pedal now and again and our Octavia, good as gold and only too ready to please, can even “coast” along a gear to save fuel. That can tot up to around 50mpg on a mixture of roads, including plenty of motorway driving, with 60mpg possible at a steady cruise with a dainty and light touch of the right foot. You will gather this is an offering with plenty to offer. As for space? Wow! It is as roomy as can be. A six footer like me will have no trouble sitting behind the leggiest driver with inches and inches of head room to spare. It’s smartened up innards have replaced the rather dowdy interior of the older version with a range of contemporary improvements. The quality is impressive to say the least, with plenty of useful and decorative moulding around the dash and on the armrests and all the doors, with lots of chrome detailing to lend it a welcome and bright glow. The entry-level SE First Edition models come with an 8.25in infotainment touch screen, with all manner of useful driver aids and helpmates. Cleverly and thoughtfully, the screen is positioned higher in the dashboard display than previously, so you don not have to take your eyes quite so far to view it. The screen icons are large, so you can hit them relatively easily while on the move.What else? Ah yes! The boot. That is its ace card. It revels in loads of space, dwarfing its rivals...640 litres...with handy hooks, cubbies and loads of separators to keep your luggage and cargo from rolling about too much. What more can I say?

Happy Motoring!
