Win tickets to see Jess Glynne Saturday 10th August at Lingfield Park Racecourse Jess Glynne has had many hits in the UK; “Rather Be” with Clean Bandit, “Don’t Be So Hard on Yourself” and “I’ll Be There”. In fact she holds the record for most No.1’s in the UK for a British woman - seven. In her first few years in the music industry, Jess Glynne has carved out a unique slot all of her own. Where others were contemplating the aftermath of heartache, she was always about standing on your own two feet. At the start of 2018, she took a listen back to her just completed second album, Always in Between. Like her blockbuster debut, I Cry When I Laugh, Jess brokers the hinterlands between pop, soul, R&B and house music. ‘Now I know that you have to be that person for yourself.’ She smiles as she says it. ‘It’s been a right old journey getting here, I can tell you.’ I Cry When I Laugh is one of the defining British pop records of its era. At the time of writing it has been a chart staple for 138 weeks. It debuted at number one, spawning 12 million worldwide singles sales, 39 weeks on the UK top 10, 2.5 billion Spotify streams, a sold out UK arena tour, Brit, MTV: EMA, Ivor Novello, MOBO, Q and Glamour award nominations.
It was in a moment’s inspiration that Jess Glynne alighted upon the title of her second record. She decided album number two would be called Always In Between. ‘There’s loads of different emotions in me but I always know what I’m doing with the music. That’s the one thing I do know. It’s my safe space. In life, I am very in touch with my emotions. Music is the one place I know I can let it out. It’s a way of processing my uncertainty.’ Jess Glynne promises to play all the hits and fan favourites including ‘Hold My Hand’, ‘Thursday’, ‘Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself’, ‘I’ll Be There’ and ‘Take Me Home’, plus some brand new tracks too.
These are the facts. Underneath is Jess’s peerless ability to commune with an audience through song; to tell the truths young women want to hear about their concerns, the loves that build them up and let them down; the aspirations and dreams that might turn sour but you’ll smile through them anyway. From the beautiful, pared back, gospel inflected uplift of debut cut I’ll Be There, it is clear that Jess is ready to build on the momentous footwork put in on her first foray into fame. Jess Glynne is a girl from North London who is noticeably free of airs and graces. She sings because she loves to and writes songs because she wants answers to her own emotional quandaries. Her powerhouse vocal and fearless delivery have captured so many under its spell.
For an action packed day out, why not enjoy a day of racing with friends and family, before dancing the night away with the delights of the fabulous Jess Glynne in concert finishing off a perfect Summer’s evening. This is a gig not to be missed. Prize includes racing and concert tickets for two people. To buy tickets: vmstickets.co.uk

12 History
Chichester Cinema at New Park Ruby Anniversary By Carol Godsmark As Chichester Cinema at New Park celebrates its Ruby Anniversary, it seems a long time since the Granada cinema in Chichester’s Corn Exchange closed down in 1979 and film fans in the area lost the last venue of the sort... until Roger Gibson stepped in. The Corn Exchange in East Street screened films from 1910, and its 1,000-seater cinema was joined by other venues like the Olympia Electric Theatre on Northgate, the Gaumont in Eastgate Square and the Picturedrome, South Street – which is now home to Iceland. The closure of the last of these Chichester cinemas seemed to be fulfilling the doom-laden prophecies that home entertainment was killing the cinema experience. However, the principal of Chichester College of Technology asked Roger, a college lecturer in film, art and history of art, to start up a film society at the college. He had been running courses on the art of film since 1969. “So I started our first programme of the Chichester Adult Education Film Society on 20 September 1979 with Woody Allen’s ‘Love & Death’,” said Roger. “This will be repeated for our Ruby Anniversary centrepiece on Friday 20 September with a party.” Looking back over the 40 years since the launch of the project, Roger can chart the landmarks of the road to the Chichester Cinema at New Park as it is today with 76,000 people attending 1,500 screenings in 2018. “The College Film Society screened on 16mm in the large College Hall, offering 40 films a year for only £10, and 300 members enrolled. “Whilst continuing with the annual college programmes (increased to twice weekly) at the renamed Chichester City Film Society, I dipped my toes into using the New Park Community Centre, starting a junior film club for 7 to 15-year-olds on Saturday mornings.” In 1986, the college society moved permanently into New Park, initially for three days a week, but then for the Full Monty of seven days and nights. “We slowly changed the film club image and rebranded,” said Roger. “Eventually, we were able to appoint our first General Manager, Ellen Cheshire, which helped me considerably. Together with stalwart

New Park Centre, home to Chichester Cinema at New Park, in past times as a boy’s school.
Walter Francisco – the current General Manager – joining us in 2013, the cinema was supported by a terrific team of professionals and enthusiastic volunteers, as well as seven chairpersons in succession.” The cinema survived the arrival of a 10-screen multiplex, and investment has continued in new facilities and equipment, including new seating, for example, which was renewed to plush red in 2017. Importantly, there is also state-of-the-art digital projection which allows live performances transmitted by satellite and internet, featuring opera, ballet, theatre and exhibitions from around the world in its 115 seat auditorium, 40-seat Studio and 13-seat Picture Palace, a converted gypsy caravan. It has come a long way in 40 years, and Chichester Cinema at New Park is justifiably celebrating the Steve Coogan at the 27th anniversary with events Chichester International Film Festival with Roger Gibson such as Ruby Tuesdays – twice monthly screenings of milestones from past years. Ruby Friends features filminspired events locally and nationally, and the Cine Circle provides a monthly opportunity for film fans to discuss films and air their views. The future at Chichester cinema lies in a second screen, which will allow an even more varied programme of films and performances. The Chichester International film Festival, curated by Roger, is now in its 28th year, and takes place in August. Attendances reached more than 9,000 for the festival last year. There will be six screens at four venues. The 2018 festival showed 150 worldwide films from 30 countries. These included premieres, previews, new releases, silent films, surprise film (which promised a preview or premiere) and retrospectives.

Chichester City Council Edited extracts of minutes from the Planning and Conservation Committee meeting on 22nd May 2019. Climate Change It was recommended to the Full Council that in light of the success of the Blue Planet series in raising awareness of the dangers of single-use plastic, this Council: - Supports and looks into the feasibility of joining the “Refill” scheme that West Sussex is setting up. - Will gradually work towards reducing and subsequently eliminating the use of single-use plastics (e.g. using refillable containers for cleaning products, eliminating disposable plastic cups and avoiding using laminating sheets for one-off occasions. - Encourages the City Council staff to liaise with hirers of the facilities to ensue that hirers have considered reducing or eliminating their use of single use plastics. -Promotes a deposit system to the District and County Councils and to our MP. Such a scheme has the potential to revolutionise our reliance on single-use plastics and keep litter off the streets. (Residents would be incentivised to return bottles back to shops in order to get their deposit back, limiting the purchase of single-use plastic bottles). All governments (national, regional and local) have a duty to limit the negative impacts of climate breakdown. Local governments that recognise this should

not wait for their national governments to change policies. It is important for the residents of Chichester to commit to carbon neutrality as quickly as possible. The City Council, with the Mayor as our Principal Spokesperson declares a climate emergency. We also pledge to make the City of Chichester carbon neutral by 2030, and will report to Full Council within six months with the actions the Mayor/Council will take to address this emergency. Items to be included on agenda for next meeting - To discuss the removal of “For Sale” or “To Let” boards on local buildings. - Application for Ice Rink in Priory Park.

Summer delights at Pagham Harbour & Medmerry By Roy Newnham, Visitor Experience Officer, RSPB Pagham Harbour Red Soldier Beetle
For a lot of birds the breeding the season is coming to a close and youngsters are learning how to fend for themselves. It is a time for the hardworking parents to consider their own well-being. Despite being hard wearing and being preened constantly, feathers do wear out and need replacing. Moulting is a big drain on a birds energy reserves and why many birds moult mid to late summer avoiding the breeding and migration seasons. The process can also leave the bird vulnerable particularly when replacing flight feathers, so during this time they are much less conspicuous, both in sight and sound, leaving us wondering where all the birds have gone.However, there is much more to be found in our British summer countryside… Now is a time to marvel at the smaller creatures. Caterpillars that have been a food source for so many growing chicks have been metamorphosing into butterflies. Meadow browns, common blues and gatekeepers flit jauntily over the grasslands. Peacocks, red admirals, comma and tortoiseshell butterflies sup nectar from thistle and teasel flowers swaying in the breeze, competing with bumblebees for space. Amorous soldier beetles cover umbilifers. The larvae of red soldier beetles eat slugs and snails, while the adults feed on aphids making them very much the gardener’s friend. They also feed on pollen making them important pollinators like the thick-kneed beetles that glint emerald green on daisies. Ladybirds hunt aphids and tortoise beetles melt into the leaves. Tortoise beetle are so called because when disturbed they draw in their legs and antennae under their shell as they hunker down and cling onto their leaf. Above the ponds dragonflies patrol their territory and fight off trespassers with a clash of wings. On the pond itself, pond skaters feel for the vibrations of insects unfortunate enough to fall into the water and get
caught in its viscous surface. They will rush over to their victim, stabbing it with their beak and sucking out the juices. Like the skaters whirligig beetles hunt for those insects struggling on the water. They whizz around at speed mesmerising the watcher. Hanging on the underside are backswimmers that move through the water upside-down using their powerful oar-like legs. Their cousins the water boatmen are normally found at the bottom feeding on plant detritus. It is also at the bottom of the pond that we find the true monsters of the deep… dragonfly larvae. These are stealth hunters and voracious predators. They have a hinged lower jaw that shoots out to grab its prey drawing it back to its mouth in less than 20 milliseconds. If threatened they have jet propulsion – they squirt water out of their bottoms, causing them to shoot away from danger. I must confess to having a passion for pond dipping and it is a fascinating world for anyone to immerse themselves in. All the while crickets and grasshoppers constantly chirrup in the background, reminding me of how I spent hours Peacock as a child trying to catch them. Summer is a time for families and young children to explore and discover. At RSPB Pagham we have a full program of family events throughout the summer holiday, from pond-dipping and bug hunting to seashore safaris and butterfly counts. Check out our website www.rspb.org.uk/paghamharbour or pick up an events leaflet from our Visitor Centre on the B2145 south of Chichester. Meanwhile the three tawny owl chicks did ‘branch’ successfully and the both families of blue tits have fledged as well. However, both blue tits families had at least 4 eggs unhatched each. We believe there must have been a drop in temperature during the incubation period chilling the eggs, showing how susceptible they are to changes in weather conditions. As for the kestrels, all five eggs have hatched and the chicks are growing fast as mum and dad strive to keep up with their hungry demands. The youngsters will not fly until they are just over a month old and even then will be dependent on their parents for a further month.

CHICHESTER LOCAL Awards 2019 which take place at Brighton’s Amex Stadium. Out of a record number of entries, this year’s award was claimed by Kate Lywood, who is the director and dairy herd manager at Marshalls Farm, where she is the third generation of her family to work there. A campaign to help reverse the decline of bees in the South East and create a haven for pollinators in the South Downs National Park has newly launched. The South Downs National Park Trust, the official charity for the National Park, is bidding to raise £75,000 to help restore flower-rich habitats that will protect bees and other important pollinators and allow them to thrive. The campaign, Bee Lines, Lines will work with farmers and other landowners to create new wildflower corridors; essentially a “road system” for insects that will link habitats and encourage pollination. WSCC have released a series of videos showcasing some of the support available to help people maintain their independence. There are more than 197,000 residents aged 65 and over living in West Sussex, and it is known that people want to remain living independently in their own homes for as long as possible. With this in mind, the council has created a suite of new videos that offer top tips to help people stay independent in later life. Booking is now open at Woods Mill for Nature Tots, Tots woodland fun for ages 3-6 starting from Saturday 14th September. Additionally, Wildlife Watch and bushcraft for ages 5-8 is starting from Saturday 17th August. www.sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk A group of private landowners and nature conservation organisations, are working together to help the white stork return home to South East England for the first time in several hundred years.

CHICHESTER LOCAL Help for residents to feel safe A new scheme has launched to help vulnerable people feel safe in Chichester city centre. Those taking part in the ‘Our Our City’ scheme will be given a card to write the contact details of two people, for example a relative, friend or carer. If they need help when out and about, they can take the card into a participating shop where staff will be trained to offer basic help and can call one of the numbers on the card if the person requires more assistance. Shops and venues taking part in the scheme will display a window sticker to make it obvious that they are involved. The scheme will be rolled out to more shops and organisations on a weekly basis, providing support to those living in the City as well as those who visit on a regular basis. Participating venues include Chichester Cathedral, GAME, Serious Sandwich and The Oxmarket. Community Connector, Leo May who is part of WSCC’s learning disability service says, “This scheme makes it much easier for those we support to identify where to find help should they feel the need. It can increase confidence for more vulnerable people when they are visiting the city centre, helping them to maintain their independence.” We hope that lots of local businesses will get involved and give their support to the scheme. Look out for updates about the scheme by searching on Facebook: Our City Chichester
The Hamblin Plant Nursery The benefits of gardening are known and recognised by the medical profession as being of particular advantage to those suffering from loneliness and depression. The Hamblin Centre nursery in Bosham is keen to support people interested in this wonderful form of therapy as people pay tribute to the role that caring for plants has played in supporting their health and wellbeing. It is hoped that the nursery will have strong support from the local community; the Hamblin Trust desperately needs extra funding to be sustainable. www.hamblincentre.org.uk

Chichester Regeneration Project The hunt is now on to find a development partner for Chichester’s major Southern Gateway regeneration project. Chichester District Council is inviting developers to submit their ideas to the council over the next six months. Developers will need to ensure their ideas are in keeping with the adopted Southern Gateway Masterplan approved in 2017, and the more detailed development brief. brief The Southern Gateway aims to stimulate economic growth and create new, better paid jobs by transforming this largely brownfield area. The 30-acre site will be turned into a vibrant and attractive new quarter featuring an esti-

Canine Partners… Training amazing assistance dogs and transforming the lives of people living with disabilities. By Lynn Smith well as a host of other related conditions, Sally became wheelchair bound after suffering a seizure in 2013. One hundred percent reliant on human care, with heart/ circulatory problems that caused her to faint or induced very full on seizures, and enduring a lot of fatigue and pain, Sally says that she, “Lacked purpose and industry. I couldn’t see how I would ever become a meaningful member of society again.” Then Sally was paired with a “Canine Partner” – Ethan – a step that transformed her life.
In September 2005, Sally Whitney was all set to study Medicine at Edinburgh University when she became unwell, just before her A-levels. Diagnosed, much later, with Lupus and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, as
Based in Heyshott, West Sussex, and with a second centre in Loughborough, Leicestershire, Canine Partners has been providing highly trained assistance dogs – canine partners - since 1990. It was founded in recognition of the life changing benefits assistance dogs could bring to the lives of adults with physical disabilities, offering a greater independence and quality of life, and contributing security, companionship, and practical help with everyday household tasks - as well as providing psychological and social esteem. Nicola Martin, CEO of Canine Partners CEO, explains the charity’s mission as seeking to, “Transform the lives of adults with physical disabilities through partnership with our specially trained assistance dogs. We pride ourselves in ensuring we create the best possible matches between our dogs and the people we support.” Potential Canine Partners undertake a specialist twoyear training programme, which begins when a puppy is selected at seven to eight weeks old and placed with a carefully chosen volunteer, with whom it will spend twelve to fourteen months in puppy training. Currently there are around 250 puppies placed with puppy parents in the UK. Volunteers care for the puppies full time, teaching basic obedience, social skills and the core tasks of tugging, touching and retrieving, all of which are essential if the puppy is to move onto advanced training. “At all stages,” says Nicola, “training is fun and reward-based.” These core skills are built upon once the puppies move into advanced training, at one of Canine Partners’ two centres, extending skills to tasks such as opening doors, retrieving the phone, pressing lift buttons and unloading a washing machine. During the next few months the dogs hone their skills and are carefully matched with a person with a disability from the charity’s waiting list. Nicola explains that,

During advanced training the dogs will continue obedience training, visiting local towns and shops to ensure they are confident and well behaved in all situations.” At the end of this period, the applicant is invited to attend a two-week residential course at one of the Canine Partner centres, where, under the guidance of the dog’s trainer, they learn how to work with their dog and continue its training, and how to take care of their canine friend. It is during this busy two weeks that the special bond between dog and partner begins. Canine Partners offers ongoing care and guidance through regular aftercare visits and telephone support, which ensures the success of the partnerships and well being of its dogs. The whole process of selecting, training and supporting a canine partner throughout their working life costs around £20,000, and currently there are over 430 adults across the UK living with one of the charity’s assistance dogs. Each year, Canine Partners creates between 70-75 partnerships and in the thirty years since the charity’s foundation, Canine Partners has created nearly 800 partnerships. The charity currently assists adults, aged eighteen and over, both civilians and former service personnel, and dogs are trained to meet the needs of individuals with even the most complex, physical disabilities. The long list of conditions and disabilities that Canine Partners works with includes: multiple sclerosis; spinal injuries and head injuries; stroke; Freidrich’s ataxia; cerebral palsy and, osteoarthritis and scoliosis. Although the waiting list has been closed to new applicants for a couple of years, Nicola Martin tells me, “ … We are now in the final stages of preparing to open to new applications later this year.”
CHICHESTER LOCAL Canine Partners employs around 80 people, working in a wide variety of roles and locations; from the expert training and aftercare teams based at the two centres and out in communities across the UK, to the Fundraising and Support teams. In addition there are over 1,000 volunteers, supporting all aspects of the training programmes, from Brood Bitch Holders who look after the mums and puppies in the breeding programme; Puppy Parents and socialisers and Foster parents, who provide short to long term placements when needed, to a wide network of fundraising and awareness raising activities. But, Nicola says, “We are always looking for passionate people to join our team of volunteers.“ The charity, she adds,“… receive (s) fantastic support from a huge number of local people … we are extremely lucky to have some very longstanding supporters.” As with all charities, funding is essential and Canine Partners has big projects underway – including, this year, building a new Kennels and Dog welfare Centre at its Midlands Training Centre.

charity’s 30th anniversary coming up in 2020, planning is already underway for celebrations and more exciting initiatives. Funding comes solely from donations. Receiving no funding from government, Canine Partners is always looking for novel ways to generate funds, including the My Amazing Puppy sponsorship scheme and UKwide fundraising events, including Walking Dog Shows - dog walks in beautiful locations with a twist. Canine Partners is particularly excited that during 2019 and 2020 they are the Goodwood Estate Charity of the Year and will have a full calendar of exciting activities that they hope will help create even more partnerships. Nicola says that “Raising awareness of who we are and what we do is an ongoing challenge with so many other vital charities carrying out amazing work across the UK. We are proud to commit to support our partnerships for as long as they feel a Canine Partner can bring a benefit to their lives. This means that we need to ensure we have funds for decades to come so that once someone has experienced the independence and benefits that an assistance dog can bring them, they never have to return to how life was before.” Which brings us back to Sally Whitney whose story opened this article, and who reinforces Nicola’s sentiments, “Life before having a canine partner was totally different … Ethan's impact has been apparent in
all areas of my life. He can do a huge range of things for me, both at home and outside the house. The tasks that Ethan and I can do together give me a lot of freedom and bring real joy. I no longer have a dependence on others to make me feel safe and secure. He’s brought me so much happiness … that I have an incredibly hard time imagining my world without him.

Do think about who you want to care for your pet at the same time that you make your Will.
Make sure your pets are cared for
Talk to the person and make sure that they are happy to take on your much loved pet. Make sure that your wishes are clearly communicated in your Will and to your friends and family. You can leave money to cover vets bills and other expenses.
We all love our furry friends and there are an estimated 51 million pets in the UK, but only a small proportion of them are mentioned in their owner’s Will. In England and Wales, pets are considered to be the property of their owners and therefore can be left to someone in a Will. The RSPCA estimate that there are 12 million petowning households in the UK, with 26 percent of us owning a dog and 18 percent a cat. If you haven’t made specific mention of your pet in your Will, then he or she will pass to the person receiving your personal possessions. This could mean that your pet ends up with someone who doesn’t want them or who is unable to care for them.
Consider leaving a ‘letter of wishes’ alongside your Will, setting out how you would like your pet to be cared for. To speak to someone about writing your Will, call one of our specialist team at legalmatters, on 01243 216900 or email us at info@legalmatters.co.uk.

Why behaviour change is hard By Heather Smith, Personal Trainer Link your fingers together and hold your palms together. Notice which thumb you naturally put on top. Now try putting the other thumb on top. Weird, right?
never goes away, but once we’ve consciously followed through with the change for long enough, it will become easier and stop needing so much attention.
Not only is every bit of your being shouting at you to go back to what is familiar, but it is now incredibly difficult to think about anything else– all of your concentration is focused on remembering the keep the ‘wrong’ thumb on top.
But until we get to that point, we need to keep ourselves off autopilot. We need to remember to remember, and not allow ourselves to get distracted. As soon as we get distracted, the fast brain can override our desire to change by returning us to our well-practiced habits.
It’s just the same when we’re trying to change our mid-morning latte and croissant to a plain coffee. To make a true life-long change, we have to truly invest in it. We have to stay conscious of the change we are trying to make, and why, and keep the focus on the change all the time. Part of our brain works quickly to make shortcuts so we can do familiar things automatically; like driving, or brushing teeth. Part of our brain works slowly, for things we do consciously. Amazingly, our slow-brain only accounts for about 5% of our decision making! It’s expensive to our brain to change the habits we have on autopilot, which is why we have to invest so much effort into making the change. The old habit
Try putting small routines in place to help you remember to remember, these take much less energy than big changes. These might be writing a list before you go shopping, writing a menu for the week ahead or leaving your trainers by the door. These sound like small actions, but they are pretty easy to remember, and jog your conscious brain into remembering what changes you’re trying to make.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib, Principal Designer of Glorious Gardens Small and beautiful choosing the right small tree for your garden. One of the most common issues I find in the many new gardens I visit each week is the lack of perfectly sized trees for the particular space. They are often not singing from the treetops but they have either grown too big and now dominate the space, or have been relentlessly pruned until their little fingers and toes look all knobbly and truncated. Choosing the right tree for the right place is an art based on knowledge and observation. Trees must be chosen carefully. Often when I arrive at a client’s garden there is either one massive tree that dominates the rest of the garden or there is a sad lack of trees. People sometimes assume that planting trees will create too much shade or crowd a garden out. However if your garden is small to medium, well positioned trees with a delicate and spacious leaf and branch character can create a canopy that will give your garden a sense of height, enclosure and intimacy. Evergreen trees Small evergreen trees (3-5metres). The more robust the evergreen presence you want, say for privacy, the more dense the leaf canopy will be. This can have the advantage of being perfect for screening but they will still cast shade. If grown near a fence be careful that over time they won’t block out your neighbours' view or light. These are some of my favourites: Arbutus Uendo and Magnolia Little Gem. Photinia is an another and if you have acid soils you can go for the Rhododendrons and Camellias. Delicate small trees For a more open canopy that lets dappled light through, you could think of Amelenchier lamarki, Weeping Birch, Weeping Cherry, Malus Red Sentinal, Sorbus Pink Pagoda, Viburnum Tinus , Pittisporum ‘Silver Queen’, Cercis Forest Pansey and Albezia (which needs a lot of sun but a sheltered position). There is also Prunus Amanogawa, Hamamaelis and the perfectly formed, classic of all small trees, the Japanese Acers. The only trouble with these is they like to be the centre of attention and need a lot of neutral space around them. Laburnum, Golden Showers, is a tree that has gone out of fashion but after the yellow display of flowers in Spring has a very inter-
esting branch structure. There is also the increasingly commonly planted Olive tree to think about as well as Ligustrum Excelsior Superb. Both have reasonably open branch structures. Lovely vertical fruit trees like Malus ‘Adirondack' and Malus Ballerina can be tucked away in a bed and nicely contrast any weeping trees you might have.

All of these trees will give your garden a lovely sense of breadth and depth without a tree surgeon being called in every year.
Smaller Shrubs Smaller shrubs can then be chosen that will tend to give longer periods of colour and fit snuggly under the ‘umbrellas’ of the trees.
Deciduous small trees
Some interesting shrubs that come to mind are: Rosa rugosa, Teucrium fruticans, Japanese Quince, most of the Hebes, Hydrangeas, Cistis, Pittisporum ‘Tom Thumb’ and the Choysia range.
Some examples are Acer grissom, Salix exiguta and the two small Magnolias, ‘India Magic’ and ‘Laura’. Unusual Trees For more unusual trees you could try Rhus lacinata (though it will sucker with its roots over the years). You could also think of Euonymous Red Cascade, Liquidamber ‘Gum Ball’ or the majestic, if slow growing, Cornus cows ‘Miss Satori’.
Ground Cover Ground cover can be used as the ‘glue’ that holds all the different layers together. Not only can you plant these in large ribbons and drifts to give your border a sense of flow and unity, but they solve the practical job of suppressing the weeds whilst the trees are establishing themselves.
Acacia pravissima is another interesting tree with an open canopy, especially if you are considering a Mediterranean style garden.
Some tried and tested ground covers that I like are the Geraniums, Sedums, Chaerophyllum ‘Roseum’, White Bay Willow Herb and Persicaria.
Underplanting
Smaller Ground Cover The smaller ground covers tend to be at the front of borders where they won’t be swamped by the bigger plants. Some nice examples are: Pachysandra, Ajuga, Brunnera, Galium odoratum, Epimedium, Bergenias, Lilly of the Valley and Periwinkle.
A tree is not a tree without a lovely well balanced undergrowth to give it context and grace so you can also consider planting underneath your trees. Shrubs Some shrubs can be turned into trees by pruning the lower branches. Some examples are: Sambucus ‘Sutherland’s Gold’ and Sambucus ‘Black Lace’. Taller Shrubs These plants can contribute lots of height when needed but can also be pruned severely each year depending on the plan you have for the shapes in your garden.
Climbers It is surprising how many gardens I visit and see unsightly spaces that a weak climber could easily transform. They can make a wonderful backdrop to the new tree you have chosen or even the smaller Clematis can be grown up the trunks. Climbers hide fences, can shoot up trees like
CHICHESTER LOCAL
38 Gardening rambling roses or drop languidly gown from shed grooves or pergodas. They are a first choice for many unsightly wall or tool shed and with their exuberant need to spread out can give your garden a new dimension. More unusual climbers are Akebia, Campsis, Berberidopsis coralline and Solanum. Bulbs The bulb range is enormous. Some come out before the trees have come into leaf to grab the early sunlight when they can, others push through other plant life tenaciously. As I have written in previous articles, plan your bulbs with the months of the year in mind and you can have bright splashes of colour almost all year. I would like to include another dimension to designing you garden with layers and that is what is called ‘Window Plants’. These are plants that even though some are quite tall they can be planted in the middle or even the front of a bed and you can see through their spacious foliage to other plants. They can be planted around your chosen tree and you can still see the trunks. Examples of these - and please look them up as they have a great ethereal feeling - are Sanguisorba ‘ Pink Elephant’, Dierama, Qaura, Molinia Tranparent and Molinia ‘Karl Foestar’, Allium Sphaerocephalon and the more commonly known Verbena Bonsariensis and Stips gigantia. So look at your garden and see if the powerful presence of a small tree could give your garden more depth and more light canopy. And don’t just plant one. See how three or four can be planted in combi-
nation to revitalise that unlimited extra space in the garden - the sky!

Water leaks By Chris Ennis FRICS In the last month or so I have stumbled across a number of ‘leaking water’ issues. Over the years I have learned that there is one thing guaranteed to drive householders into a blind panic, and that is the sight, the sound (or even the thought) of leaking water. Leaks can be very minor, or if an underground supply pipe burst it can be a significant calamity costing a lot to repair. There are numerous causes, amongst them being corrosion, chemical action, frost, age, type of materials, and physical abuse of the pipes.
Property

Where properties have been extended or modernised it is not uncommon to find a mixture of dis-similar metals in pipes and tanks. This can be a cause of electro-chemical action which can lead to leakage. We mustn’t forget frost damage which can be catastrophic. Ideally, all pipes should be insulated. Pipes laid within a solid floor slab should be isolated/ insulated to minimise the possible re-action between the copper piping and the concrete.
Properties constructed prior to 1930 could still have a mains water pipe formed in lead. Not only is this a potential source of health damage, but the old pipes are by now coming to the end of their useful life. Even the more modern galvanised water barrel piping could well be rusting and leaking. It is now possible to replace such pipes using a ‘mole’ system enabling the insertion of modern polypropylene tubes without extensive excavation. The typical cost of simple mole repair on an average sized property is in the order of £1,000.
For complete peace of mind Householders should consider the merits of joining one of the home maintenance schemes offered by British Gas, or Seeboard.
I still see examples of old galvanised water tanks tucked away in the roof spaces. Such tanks rust internally, and if they burst, damage can be extensive.

There are a multitude of modern plumbing repair systems available, and of course in the event of an emergency, always consult an accredited plumber. If the defect involves any aspect of boiler / gas maintenance, ensure you are dealing with a ‘gas safe’ engineer.

Glorious Goodwood & Painter George Stubbs By local historian Andrew Berriman Each of these articles this year has been linked to the month in which it appears. So what about July? To me it is the festival of horse racing held high on the Sussex Downs, the most scenic racecourse in Britain. Nowadays sponsorship insists on calling it ‘The Qatar Goodwood Festival’, but to us it is simply ‘Glorious Goodwood’. As with the Tennis Elbow Foot game, Goodwood and Horses leads straight to George Stubbs. The 3rd Duke of Richmond, Duke from 1750 to 1806, had invited this fairly unknown painter to Goodwood House in 1759. In London they may have shared a mutual acquaintance in the painter Joshua Reynolds, who had just finished his striking portrait of the young Duke in his impressive red military uniform. Stubbs spent nine months at Goodwood; he may have lodged in one of the rooms above the magnificent stable block, just completed to the design of William Chambers, built with squared (or knapped) flints, brought all the way from Norfolk in wicker baskets. During his stay Stubbs painted three superb sporting paintings, still on display in the Front Hall at Goodwood. If you haven’t seen them, then you must. The House is open to the public on summer Sunday and Monday afternoons. The paintings are so fresh, the animals so lifelike, the human so recognisable, the clothing so precise, the landscape so ‘Sussex’. Each of them focuses on a different horsing scene: shooting, hunting, and exercising the racehorses. David Piper once rightly called them ‘the equivalent of a pastoral symphony in three movements’. The figure in the centre of the painting entitled ‘Shooting at Goodwood’ is the rather portly Henry Fox, brother-in-law of the 3rd Duke, raising his gun on the edge of a small wood. Back in 1744 Fox had disgraced himself with the 2nd Duke by secretly eloping with, and marrying, the latter’s eldest daughter, Lady Caroline. But by 1759 he had redeemed himself, becoming the Secretary of War and Lord Holland. In the painting the estate gamekeeper, dressed in green livery, is ready to hand another loaded gun to Fox. The horses are held by estate servants, in yellow and scarlet livery. One of them, shown bottom left, is black, not uncommon in Georgian England.
‘Racehorses exercising at Goodwood’ by George Stubbs (Courtesy of the Trustees of the Goodwood Collection)
The hunting painting shows the Charlton Hunt, out on the South Downs. The 3rd Duke is centre stage, sitting tall on his mount, wearing the dark blue Charlton Hunt livery, with gold trim. But it is really the pack hounds which catch the eye. At left a horse leaps a fence; at rear right the Hunt emerges from a spinney in full cry. The day is cloudy, the distant Channel just visible. To a local historian the third painting is a total delight. The vista is so clear. Can you spot the thin spire of the distant Chichester Cathedral, with the hills of the Isle of Wight beyond? The hawk-eyed among you might even pick out some small vessels in the Solent. It is early morning, no doubt cold, with the racehorses blanketed and hooded. The frock-coated jockeys, exercising the horses, wear yellow livery, touched with scarlet, as do the horses! The sun is low, the hillside in shadow, the morning sky pale. Mary, wife of the 3rd Duke, is shown mounted side-saddle, while her steward points to the jockeys, galloping up the slope. Young grooms rub down with straw the grey horse on the right, who throws up his head in annoyance; the anatomical detail is amazing. All in all it’s a wonderful composition, though Stubbs was dissatisfied with it. He knew that he had failed to depict correctly the strides of galloping horses; they seem more akin to rocking horses. So he never again tried to paint such a scene; not until the advent of photography was this little conundrum sorted. But Stubbs is still rightly regarded as Britain’s finest ‘horse painter’…. though he rather resented being called no more than just that.
