Dear Readers,
ike me, are you still waiting for the Indian Summer we were all promised after such a wet summer - which was also supposed to be a scorcher? I’m sure I read somewhere that the Met Office weather forecasters were sharing a nice ‘forecast accuracy’ £1million target bonus! Not for 2017 surely! So forever the optimist I am now looking forward to a fantastic, colourful and lengthy Autumn display this year. Apparently the wet summer has helped trees to catch up which should produce a stunning Autumn display - albeit slightly later than normal - according to the Forestry Commission. The last two weeks in October will be the best time so plan your country walks to locations like our cover photo accordingly.
with best wishes,
Sadly our regular “Viewed From My Window” articles about rescued cats has finally come to an end since we have exhausted the current supply of marvellous and well written stories about Patricia’s efforts caring for the many stray cats she has ‘acquired’ over the years! I’m sure word has gone round the local cat population that she is a really soft touch and there’s always a meal and a nice soft bed on offer there! I’ve really enjoyed all the highs and lows of her tales as I know many of our readers have and maybe we’ll be treated to the occasional feature in the future! Finally I hope you manage to enjoy a few trips out into the country this Autumn before the clocks go back which is on 29th October at the end of Half Term - don’t forget!

ROUNDABOUT
ROUNDABOUT VERWOOD RINGWOOD & FORDINGBRIDGE
PAST and PRESENT Bethel Chapel, Ringwood Road.
Mid 1900’s
T
he Bethel Chapel in Ringwood Road, Verwood was opened on 23rd April 1931 on land acquired for £50. It had previously been the site of Tent Mission. Two Verwood men, Godrick Sims and Clifford Sims who had attended Evangelical Meetings in Bournemouth came home and prayed over Lloyd Shearing, a chronically sick young man who made a complete recovery. So Lloyd’s father Frederick then became a committed Christian and he, Godrick and Clifford gave up their jobs in order to build Bethel accepting only £37 between them for labour. An official loan of £100 repayable over ten years was made followed by another of £82 the following year. When the Chapel opened it had to have three Sunday services to accommodate all those who wished to attend. The first Pastor was Winston Shearing and when he left his brother Lloyd succeeded him for twenty-five years. Electricity was installed in 1935 when the application was signed
by Winston Shearing, Gardener of Manor Lane and witnessed by Frederick Prior. On 28th May 1954 the Chapel was registered to solemnize marriages. Further alterations and extensions were made and in 1991 the vestry and kitchen were added and in 2004 the old doorway was replaced by a porch.

Hillside Community First School News
H
illside Community First School in Verwood had a tree planting ceremony recently which was attended by the Town’s Mayor (Mrs Lindsey Dedden), the Chair of Governors (Mrs Sandra Groves), parents, staff and pupils. Five trees were planted to represent the 5 decades that the school has been open: a Silver Birch, West Himalayan Birch, European Aspen, Rowan and Vilmorian Rowan. The planting was carried out by Mrs Dedden, Mrs Groves and Headteacher Mr Harrison, ably-assisted by the eldest 2 children from each class. The ceremony was also attended by Mrs Ruth Bussey, a school governor, who was involved with the initial purchasing of land for the school and also with its set up. Mrs Bussey gave a brief history of the school and a glowing report of its achievements. Hillside will be celebrating its 50th year of existence with various events throughout 2017/2018, including a whole-school photo, a tea party for past and present staff, a disco for the children, the installation of a mural, recording of a celebratory song and a barbecue, to name a few! The children and staff are looking forward to the exciting year ahead.

Ginger’s First Run - part 2
decided it was time our newest cat Ginger went out for a walk. Not sure how he would react outside, I picked him up and placed him on the grass. He never moved! He did not know what to do. Was he agoraphobic? Was the grass a reminder of being lost and alone after falling or jumping from the window of the upstairs flat? After a while I brought him back in. I decided that perhaps if he was on a harness it would be easier to encourage him to walk hoping he would enjoy the experience. Another day and suitably harnessed up, he did not want to know, but I persevered and managed to get just a few steps out of him. He lay in the long grass and surveyed the area. Buttercups, grass hoppers and butterflies, it was all new.
I felt reassured that at least he would not be running away, so the next day I took off the harness and hoped that would make a difference. I walked away, turned and called him to come. It took a while, but he did take a few steps, then a few more, but soon wanted to go back to the patio. Perseverance was the key and after a few days he was happy to follow me around the field garden and even tried to catch a moth hovering in the grass. Henry had decided to come with us, but then felt he needed a good run, so took off at high speed back to the patio. Ginger was mesmerised and was not quite sure what to do. It took just a moment or two, then he managed to summon up the courage and he also ran, at first slowly, then seemed to put on a spurt and ran as fast as he could across the grass, his long fluffy coat billowing against the wind. You could see the thrill and excitement in his face. He was so pleased with himself. This was obviously the very first time he had had a run in all his life, what a new experience! That was it, now he had to get outside every day and he would walk for a while and then just had to have a good run as fast as his little legs could carry him.
Now he had to be outside as much as possible. During the day he might sit on the grass just under the ‘dickie bird’ tree where we hang all the nuts and seeds and I have seen him jump high enough that he caught hold of the fat ball holder, but fortunately the birds had flown away. In the evening he will sit on the patio and watch the deer and even the badgers coming and going. He does not move and they do not mind him, oblivious to everything except the peanuts put out for them. Ginger is fascinated by everything The grass outdoors, even the wind in is a new his fur. experience for Ginger! From 2am, Ginger would start scratching the door to go out and would continue to do so until we had had enough of it and let him out so we could get back to sleep, but fortunately it did not take too long for him to get into the routine that he has to sleep at night and is not let out until we get up. Now he spends all day outside exploring and he must walk miles. It did not take long before he decided sachets of cat food were very tasty, crunchy biscuits and his favourite meaty sticks and even a try of any other tasty morsels on offer, all go to make up a splendid varied diet.. Ginger has a new home, he is friendly with everyone and he has the freedom he craved, so hopefully no more jumping out of windows! The full story and many more are in the book “Viewed From My Window” by Patricia Oliver price £15.00 + £2.50 p&p. For more details, contact Patricia on: 01202 826244. Any proceeds go towards the Veterinary and Welfare needs of the 16 feral cats currently in her care.

head to generate a winner. Walking up to this car in the ‘Flair’ variant is visually striking with a new chunky shape featuring a stubby high bonnet, a contrasting roof colour and practical black extensions around the wheel arches, front, back and the ‘airbump’ panels let into the doors to offer side parking protection. Together with a superbly glossy white paint, a black roof and large alloy wheels, it looks a million dollars - the wide range of personalisation options help give this car a very special ‘look’. Open any door to be impressed by a funky interior displaying echoes of exterior colours, ‘mood’ lighting and a very generous helping of technology including instruments, 7” touch-screen and more personal technology connections than you can possibly imagine or use! So far, so good. My car came with the excellent light-turbo 1.5 litre ‘blue’ diesel featuring stop-start (with braking energy re-capture) and a 5-speed manual transmission. This gives crisp performance in this purposefully light car without setting the world on fire, while ensuring exhaust emissions less than 100mg and in line with Euro 6b. Just a word about emissions - current diesel engines complying with this latest standard have emissions equal to current petrol engines, so the mass hysteria which has been
generated about ‘dirty diesels’ certainly does not apply to this car - or indeed any other Euro 6b diesel car. We also need to be reminded that diesel fuel consumption is much less than petrol engines - this car was determined to exceed 56mpg at all times and that compares very favourably with petrol cars which use 30-50% more fuel. A big saving in your pocket, and for the environment. To drive, a very characterful car although I thought it could have easily used a 6th gear for the motorway - or their excellent automatic gearbox. Handling was excellent with a lot of electric assistance at walking speeds, while on the motorway being ‘idled’ to save fuel/emissions and to give a very direct, sporty steering feel. Thankfully this directness and control came without the horrid stiff ‘boy racer’ suspension which afflicts many of its competitors, also partly due to very comfortable and supportive bucket seats. On the safety front, this car had a whole host of safety features that are legally mandatory, plus speed limit warning, sign-reading, lane departure warning, coffee break alert, non-adaptive cruise control and emergency brake assist. Yes, I would be delighted to have one of these cars in my garage, although I suspect the huge choice of colour schemes on offer could lead to argument. I should be so lucky!

e may struggle to visualise the former Citroen C3, a car which struck a decidedly middle-of-theroad stance as an inexpensive small-medium hatchback with 5 doors, somewhere between a Fiesta and Focus in size, but offering class-leading space and economy. However, the rounded and ambiguous styling endeared it only to those who needed practicality and did not wish to be recognised. That having been said, as a used car buy the pricing, running costs and value are hard to beat. The old C3 would make a sound proposition for new drivers. So, to the new Citroen C3 which replaces it. How to describe it? Something funky, interesting, stand-out individual. This car is entirely new, much more radically styled and aggressive looking. It comes in a huge range of colour combinations and interiors - plus of course the wide range of peppy and economical power trains for which the Peugeot group is well known.

Beauty
ighter, summery shades of lipsticks tend to give way to warmer, deeper hues as the weather gets colder. This autumn, we’ll be seeing two extremes when it comes to lip colours – ‘barely there’ and deep berry shades. Clarins have brought out three new shades of their bestselling Joli Rouge lipstick – Deep Red, Litchi and Guava. Brighter shades can be difficult to carry off, but these three are surprisingly wearable. They’re also formulated with mango oil and other moisturisers, to leave your lips feeling softer and more hydrated. £20, www.clarins.co.uk. Autumn might be just around the corner, but that’s no reason to ditch the sunscreen. As well as helping to reduce the risk of skin cancer, protecting your skin also helps to prevent visible damage, including pigmentation and wrinkles. If time is an issue, you’ll love Origins’ Ginzing SPF40 Energy Boosting Tinted Moisturiser. Suitable for all skin types, it protects, moisturises
and conceals in one go. Personally, I love it – the colour is very natural, it’s easy to apply, and it doesn’t feel too heavy. £30, www.origins. co.uk. Crabtree & Evelyn have brought out a new range of body care products to complement their flower water perfumes. Choose from Florentine Freesia, Venetian Violet and Old World Jasmine. Each fragrance is available in a hand cream, body lotion, body cream, bath & shower gel and flower water. Old World Jasmine is a personal favourite, with its subtle fragrance of white jasmine, orange, lemon and spring flowers. Try the Old World Jasmine bath & shower gel, which features skinloving ingredients such as moringa, evening primrose and rosehip oils. £18, www. crabtree-evelyn.co.uk. New to our shores, Angel En Provence is an organic hair care brand that focuses on natural ingredients. The fine hair range, for example, includes extracts of lavender, grapefruit and ginger, as well as rosemary leaf oil and sage oil. Together, they help to give extra body to limp locks and reduce hair loss. There are ranges to suit most hair types, so whether you want some

If you love natural skincare, you’ll want to check out Beauty Kitchen. This British beauty brand is 100% natural, cruelty free, and great value for money. Is your skin feeling a bit dry after the summer? Try the Inspire Me Brightening & Toning Body Polish (£14.99). It gently exfoliates away dead skin cells, and leaves skin feeling more nourished. It also smells good enough to eat. Or if you want a treat that costs less than a sandwich, the Inspire Me Triple Action Body Mist is just £2.99 for a handbagfriendly bottle. It’s fragranced with essential oils, and helps to hydrate skin and refresh your senses. See: www.hollandandbarrett.com.

Loving Later Life in Verwood
erwood’s older residents are invited along to a new activities club which opened in September and was launched by registered charity BrendonCare Clubs which currently runs over 90 clubs for those in later life across Dorset and Hampshire. The clubs offer something for everyone - from clubs which meet in pubs, to table tennis and indoor kurling groups (think of ice curling without the ice and the need to bend down to play), film nights and singing groups, the clubs are designed to offer fun and friendship to older people, especially for those without family or friends living nearby and who may otherwise be lonely. The new Verwood club will run every Saturday and will offer a range of games and other activities, such as kurling and bingo. Plus, of course, there will be the essential time to chat with other members over tea, coffee and biscuits. Violet is a member at one of the charity’s
other clubs and explained “My life changed completely when I lost my husband. I now live alone. The Brendoncare club was recommended to me by a friend and joining a club did make a difference to my life; it is always something to look forward to and I enjoy the variety of things we do. I also enjoy making friends at the club. Our club leader gives so much to the club and makes it a pleasure to be there.” The Verwood Activities Club will meet every Saturday from 23 September between 1.45pm and 3.45pm at Verwood United Reform Church, 2 The Old Pottery, Manor Way, Verwood, BH31 6HF. It will cost £3 per session on a pay as you go basis, which includes all the refreshments. The first session is free, so local people are encouraged to come along and try the club out at no cost. More information about the new Verwood club or Brendoncare’s other clubs can be found on the charity’s website: www.brendoncare.org.uk/clubs or by telephoning 01962 852133.

Inspired By Colour By Katherine Sorrell
Home & Interiors
T
he story of colour is the story of society, of fashion, of the way we live, of science, of art – in fact, of mankind itself. We look at all aspects of colour, from its history to this year’s most fashionable shades. Did you know there was a time when green wallpaper could kill? Or that a very expensive dye was made from boiled snails? In the Palaeolithic era - about 35,000 years ago - Stone Age man began to create cave paintings using earth pigments mixed with resin, water or glue made from animal bones and hides. For centuries the most widely used natural pigments were extracted from soil and rocks, plants, insects and animals. Ash and chalk were also basics; at a price, however, strong, bright pigments or dyes could be extracted from other sources, such as ultramarine blue from ground lapis lazuli gemstones or Tyrian purple, where 10,000 boiled snails produced just
one gram of dye. Historically, the use of colour was governed by ease of availability and thus cost. The richest colours were always reserved for the most important parts of religious and royal interiors. In the Georgian period, the affordable ‘common’ colours included stone and timber colours, greys and whites – in the form of distemper and white lead. Middle class households would often use the slightly more expensive oil colours such as ‘drab’ (dull brownish grey), olive, pea green and sky blue. More expensive paints included pink, lemon, orange and straw colour, while the most costly were verdigris, ultramarine and smalt, a glittering blue. Everything changed from the early 19th century, when chemists began to develop synthetic colours at lower cost. Many new colours were developed and old ones were improved - though
an exception was Emerald Green, commercially available from 1814 to the early 1900s, as fumes from wallpaper printed with the arsenic-based ink could be deadly. The new Victorian palette included bottle greens, gold, burgundy, crimson, rose, violet and mahogany, as well as intense chemical yellows, blues and greens. Edwardian hues became softer and paler and, ever since, colour has followed the roller-coaster of fashion and scientific advances: from the ‘greenery-yallery’ of the Aesthetic movement to the brilliant white produced by the introduction of titanium dioxide in 1916 and from the sorbet colours of the Fifties right through to the pinks, blues and greens of 2017. It’s fair to say that the modern world of colour has no limits. MAIn IMAGE: Plushious quilted and hand-embroidered bedspread in velvet by Linum, £320, The French Bedroom Company: 01444 415 430; frenchbedroomcompany.co.uk.
What are this year’s most fashionable colours? Greenery: Colour authority Pantone’s colour of 2017, Greenery is described as ‘a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew’. Greenery is ideal for adding pops of colour in the form of cushions, cupboard fronts or vases. It also lends itself
beautifully to the botanicals trend that’s so hot right now.
and post-pretty, and it’s literally everywhere.
millennial PinK: Also known as Tumblr Pink and Scandi Pink, Millennial Pink is a soft, dusky pink that was inspired by Wes Anderson’s film The Grand Budapest Hotel and the rose gold iPhone. It’s been called gender-neutral
Denim Drift: Dulux’s colour of the year for 2017, Denim Drift is versatile and easy to use in every room of the house, from kitchen cupboards and soft furnishings to floor coverings and entire walls. It’s easy to co-ordinate with, too.

The Courage To Be Yourself
M
any people are upset when their relationships are over because they are unable to feel a sense of resolution. They spend time trying to work out what went wrong, often trying to understand the nature of the other person so that they can somehow resolve the situation. A person might say ‘I’m so upset because if they really knew who I was then things would be different.’ This is mostly because either they and/or their partner was not able to be their true selves, become vulnerable, ask for what they want, air their grievances, express their fears, and be truly known. Usually this is because they fear rejection, upsetting the other person or fear losing the relationship. However, this is a crucial relationship ingredient and without it long lasting commitment may be difficult to achieve. Having the courage to be yourself doesn’t mean being controlling, demanding or officious. Letting yourself be known means talking to people honestly, calmingly working through differences and facing up to the reality of the situation. It ultimately means saying ‘I don’t agree,’ ‘I don’t like that,’ ‘I feel scared/uncomfortable,’ ‘I don’t agree,’ ‘I’m feeling angry.’ For some people the fear of being known stops them from saying ‘I love you,’ or ‘I am so happy!’ The thought of letting their guard down enough to become vulnerable can be very scary indeed. Sometimes love is too precious for words. In other words, people can fear that asking too many questions or saying

Autumn Entertainment From new releases to true classics, there’s plenty to keep you entertained from our choice of books this Autumn. politics and extremism to love and family ties. However, Shamsie’s skilful writing means the themes never suffocate the story. A powerful book.
Book Reviews
How to Stop Time – Matt Haig Tom Hazard looks like he’s 40, but he’s been alive for centuries. People notice when you age so slowly, so Tom has to change his identity every eight years – a new name, new job, new friends. Falling in love isn’t an option and it’s best not to get too attached to anyone, as they’ll only die. But Tom craves an ordinary life. Beautifully written, this book is begging to be devoured in one sitting. Home Fire – Kamila Shamsie After years of raising her younger siblings, Isma is free to live her own life and to start a career in America. Back in the UK, her sister, Aneeka, is struggling in a society that sees her hijab as a threat. Enter Eamonn, the son of a well-known London politician, who will have a lasting effect on both women. This reimagining of Sophocles’ Antigone covers some pretty big issues, from religion,
Entrepreneurial You – Dorie Clark If you’re fed up of the daily grind and fancy setting up on your own, this book might prove a good starting point. The tagline is a good indication of the content – ‘Monetize Your Expertise, Create Multiple Income Streams, and Thrive’. Clark offers advice on choosing what to do, building your brand and finding people to buy from you. There are plenty of case studies to be inspired by and, unlike many other business books, it’s not too heavy a read. The Handmaid’s Tale – Margaret Atwood Now a critically acclaimed TV series, The Handmaid’s Tale was first published in 1985. The US government has been overthrown by a fundamentalist Christian organisation, which strips women of their rights. Birth rates have plummeted and, as one of the few fertile women left, June is forced to become a handmaid to a powerful
commander, Fred. Renamed Offred, her sole purpose is to bear her master’s children. Gripping. Extracted Trilogy – RR Haywood Harry Madden died after blowing up a German base in WW2. Safa Patel saved the prime minister, before being killed by terrorists. Ben Ryder was hit by a train while trying to stop armed men blowing up an underground station. Now these three heroes find themselves ‘extracted’ from their untimely deaths, by a man with a time-machine who wants them to save the world. A thoroughly enjoyable read, with a tightly-written plot, great characters and plenty of action. The Break – Marian Keyes Bestselling author Marian Keyes’ latest book centres around forty-something Amy, whose husband Hugh has decided he wants a break. It’s not that he doesn’t love her; he just wants some time for himself. Six months’ worth of time in fact. But if he’s on a break, then surely Amy deserves a bit of freedom too? An amusing, easy read for curling up with on a cold winter’s evening.

Special Feature
he UN founded World Space Week in 1999 to celebrate “the contributions of space science and technology to the betterment of the human condition.” It’s now the largest space event in the world, with 86 countries holding 2,700 events last year. This year’s theme is ‘Exploring New Worlds in Space’, and here we look at four major projects the Week will highlight. New Horizons: Pushing the Boundaries The New Horizons spacecraft was launched on 19th January 2006, beginning NASA’s first mission to reconnoitre Pluto and venture into the distant Kuiper Belt. It conducted a six-month-long reconnaissance of the dwarf planet Pluto and its moons in summer 2015. With NASA approval, the spacecraft will head further into the vast Kuiper Belt, where it will study another of the ancient, tiny worlds, over a billion miles beyond Neptune’s orbit. The mission will provide information about the surface properties, geology, interior makeup and atmospheres of these bodies and how ‘ice dwarfs’, like Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, evolved. It may also tell us more about four previously unknown moons of Pluto - Nix, Hydra, Styx and Kerberos – which were discovered using the Hubble Telescope.
World Space Week
4th to 10th October The Orion: Human-Rated Deep Space Exploration Lockheed Martin is the prime contractor building the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle -NASA’s first spacecraft for long-duration, human-rated deep space exploration. Orion is intended to transport up to six astronauts to destinations beyond low Earth orbit, such as asteroids, the moon and eventually Mars, and return them safely to Earth. It can withstand re-entry speeds of over 20,000 miles per hour. It will enable NASA to extend sustainable, affordable human and robotic exploration across the solar system, developing innovative technology and infrastructure to take space exploration even farther. Space X: Planning for Our Move to Mars Founded in 2002 by Elon Musk, SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft “with the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets.” In 2010, it became the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from lowEarth orbit, and in 2012 made history again when its Dragon spacecraft took cargo to and from the International Space Station. It now runs regular NASA resupply missions and will be transporting crew to the ISS as early as 2018. SpaceX is currently developing the Falcon Heavy,
the world’s most powerful rocket, and working on fully and rapidly reusable rockets, which will make space exploration more affordable and reliable. This year it successfully achieved the first reflight of an orbital class rocket. Planetary Resources: Unlocking the Solar System’s Economy The vision of Planetary Resources is “to expand the economy into space.” The company focuses on developing technology to mine near-Earth X-type asteroids (rich in precious metals) and extract water from C-type asteroids. To this end, they’re developing prospector craft capable of surveying asteroids for prolonged periods and then impacting or landing on them to take measurements. The Arkyd 3 deployed into lowEarth orbit from the ISS in July 2015 and successfully tested its core prospecting capabilities. Arkyd 6 is scheduled to launch this year to test increased prospecting and space-based observation technologies. Before mining precious metals, Planetary Resources intends to produce fuel in space from water-rich carbonaceous chondrites that can be broken down into highly efficient LOX/H2 rocket fuel.
