Oundle Mill – Exceptional dining on your doorstep When you are looking for a great place to dine out locally, do you base your decision on great service, attention to detail and staff knowledge as well as taste, choice and atmosphere? If so, then book your next meal at Oundle Mill, which is located in Barnwell, Oundle, near Peterborough. My partner, Steve, and I were invited to sample the amazing delights of head chef Gavin Austin and his superb team. To make it extra special, we decided to stay over for the night as they have two fabulous, individually designed rooms on the property, with another 13 planned for 2013. We headed to the Mill straight after work and were met by the manager, Paul Richardson, who showed us around and took us to our room. We have travelled to some amazing places around the world, but didn’t expect to find such a chic and decadent room on our doorstep! The Mill Suite is huge with an attic ceiling and a superb range of amenities and facilities, including a sumptuous, stone double ended bath. With a real flame contemporary fire warming the room, we immediately felt at home and relaxed.

Prior to dinner we sat at the bar and discussed the menu and the wine list with Paul, whose knowledge was first class. Both are very comprehensive and the a la carte menu was creative with a number of unique dishes on offer. The attentive staff were knowledgeable about the food and able to assist with our choices. Steve opted for Gavin’s signature starter dish of tempura black pudding, hen’s egg, crisp shallots, bacon and devilled sauce, which looked like a work of art and was simply delicious. I opted for the butternut risotto with Norfolk Dapple cheese. I could easily have had this for my main; it was so wholesome and tasty. Other starters included chicken terrine, Brancaster mussels and fishcakes. For my main, I wanted something light and different and the steamed plaice with herb spaetzle (a type of noodle), prawns and lemongrass nage (a delicately fragranced sauce) was perfect. Steve chose wisely with the braised Bridge Farm lamb. Both meals were presented beautifully and tasted as good as they looked. Other mains included slow cooked belly pork, rib eye steak and an upside down beetroot tart with goats cheese.
April 2012 | Email: info@scenepublishing.co.uk
Having enjoyed an Italian crisp, dry white wine (Gavi Gavi) with our starters, Paul suggested we try a French red with our mains and we opted for a Corbieres from Chateau La Baronne, which was excellent. Normally two courses are enough for us. However, we were recommended Gavin’s signature desert dish of banana tart with pecan ice-cream and caramel sauce, and simply could not resist it!! It had the most delicious flavours, without being too sweet. The menu is very well priced, particularly considering the quality of the venue, food, presentation and service. With starters and desserts from around £6 and mains starting from as little as £12.50, making this the perfect place to dine any day of the week. The perfect end to a perfect evening was the ability to walk upstairs to our stunning room where we enjoyed a small glass of the complimentary sloe gin whilst relaxing and listening to a CD that was prepared exclusively for Mr & Mrs Smith hotels, which Oundle Mill is a member of.
Oundle Mill can cater for any occasion from a simple snack in the bar to birthday celebrations or weddings, it offers private dining and bespoke menus where desired. There are also meeting room facilities and fabulous outdoor dining options. You can have exclusive or part use of the Mill, which would be ideal for weddings, as they hold a civil licence to carry out your ceremony, and they have the most picturesque setting for your photos.
“I have been the Head Chef at Oundle Mill for 6 months now. I created the menu with a focus on good British fayre with a twist of elegance. I strive for a happy audience and empty plates. We have an open kitchen policy and welcome customer feedback Head Chef Gavin Austin

BYTHAMS CHARITY SPONSORED RIDE The Annual Bythams Charity Sponsored Ride takes places on Monday 7 May. A rare opportunity to spend your day riding through stunning private parkland, with no traffic around to spoil the serenity, is being offered in Lincolnshire for the early Bank Holiday weekend. Riders of all abilities are being invited to take part in a sponsored charity event in the grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle near Bourne from 10am. There are three routes to choose from – 8, 12 and 15 miles and all are within the confines of the park. The organisers have introduced some new routes for 2011, but these still take riders through ancient woodlands, past a 50-acre lake and alongside the imposing castle – one of England’s most impressive hidden gems.
BOURNE SOCIAL GROUP If you’re looking to make friends and meet new people then come and join the informal monthly social gatherings, with Bourne Social Group. The group meet for a drink and a chat at The Venue, behind The Nag’s Head in Bourne, usually on the 1st Saturday of each month (subject to change depending on availability). Everyone is welcome, couples and singles of all ages. For more info email socialiseinbourne@hotmail.co.uk or call Sue on 07506 502922.
The event raises funds to help maintain the village churches of Little Bytham, Castle Bytham, Careby and Creeton, and makes an equally sizeable contribution to a different charity every year. This year, the ride will be supporting 2012 Olympic Para Medal hopeful, Emma Sheardown, based at Hough-onthe-Hill near Grantham. Para dressage rider Emma is already World Freestyle Para Dressage World Champion, clinching the Grade 1a Freestyle title in Kentucky during October 2010. emmasheardown.co.uk www.kestevenrda.co.uk Riders can set off between 10am and 2pm (last start time for the 15-mile route is 1pm) – the advance fee is £15 per horse, or £20 on the day.

The television plays images of last night’s riots and there are too many questions to be answered. Eve is a beacon, a seventeen year old inspiration to friends, family and just about everyone at the superstore extra. She has been nominated to carry the Olympic flame in the upcoming torch relay, to help spread the light of hope, unity and peace.
So why can she not remember what happened last night? Why do her clothes smell of fire and where are Anna and Brian? Torchbearer is a gripping reminder of what can happen when you forget who you are... even for a second.

HEALTH, HAIR & BEAUTY
Getting yourself prepared and perfected for your holiday The summer time is quickly approaching and Essence of Beauty, Stamford, have given us some of their top tips for preparing your skin for the warmer weather.
To save time and ensure you look your absolute best at all times; Have all of your waxing done 24-48 hours before going away
Tanning before you go away will give you more self confidence with a natural glow, when you first arrive on the beach. Making sure you exfoliate twice a week beforehand and keeping your skin well moisturised whilst you are away, will ensure that your tan will be even and last longer.
A manicure and pedicure will give you the immaculate hands and feet you desire and will want to get out and show off. Whether it’s a polish or gels on your nails, they both automatically enhance the appearance and get you in the holiday spirit.
Essence of Beauty offer a pure, natural alternative to traditional chemical-laden cosmetic and tanning products, called Karora. All KARORA products incorporate natural and organic ingredients, delivering flawless colour and long lasting results. KARORA is all about looking healthy, natural and gorgeous, without using parabens, artificial fragrances, synthetic colours or harsh chemicals.
Say goodbye to your mascara when you go away and have the individual semi-permanent ‘Lash Perfect’ extensions, lasting 4-6 weeks depending on the cycle of your own natural lashes. We recommend top ups every 2-3 weeks. Lash perfect eyelash extension are available in different thicknesses and lengths to ensure you get a natural look and feel.

HEALTH, HAIR & BEAUTY Hi Beauties As the Easter holidays are upon us its time to put the cold gloomy weather behind us and start thinking about holidays! So with holidays comes the need to start thinking about travel beauty products, this month I’m giving my top tips to get all the products you need in your case, but for half the space.
Holiday Travel Beauty Products MINATURES Get yourself down to your local supermarket to stock up on miniature versions of all your favourite products, why take a huge shampoo with you, when you only need a mini. I especially love the mini baby oil (excellent for tanned skin) and dry hair shampoo – prices start from £1. The Body Shop also does mini’s their divine body butter comes in a smaller 50ml version for just £5 – Pink Grapefruit is my favourite one.
SAMPLES It’s slightly cheeky, but ask for samples of your favourite products at your local beauty counter, then that way you can just take the sample and leave your big bottles at home.
EMPTY TRAVEL BOTTLES Another good idea is to buy empty travel bottles which you can put your own products in – then you can reuse them over and over again. M&S do a good set for £5.
APPLY ONCE SUN LOTION Most sun protection ranges now carry ‘apply once’ products. This means all you have to do is apply the lotion 30 minutes before sun exposure and you’re good to go for the next 8 hours. I like the Piz Buin 1 Day Long Lotion (look out for buy one get one free offers) £12.99 - Boots.
TRAVEL STRAIGHTNERS Electrical equipment can be heavy and take up room in your case, so check if your hotel has a hairdryer then that’s one less thing to pack. Why not switch your bulky straightners for mini lightweight ones, all the hair brands do them and you can get some for as little as £7 – bargain.

HYPNOTHERAPY & CHANGE WORK FOR ANXIETIES & PHOBIAS There are hundreds of phobias that people have to deal with on an everyday basis, for some people it causes immense suffering and disruption to their daily living; I see many people for therapy for phobic issues and Social Anxiety & Dental phobia are easily in the top 5!
SO WHAT IS SOCIAL ANXIETY? Social anxiety is a fear of being judged or humiliated or being put ‘on the spot’… also known as social phobia or scopophobia & social anxiety disorder. Social phobia is probably one of the most common phobias that exist today and can occur in many different situations and with many different symptoms including: fear of public speaking, interviews, a fear of talking on the telephone, blushing, stuttering, lack of confidence, certain sexual inhibitions – due to ‘performance anxiety’ & repeated failing of the driving test, feeling embarrassed if put on the spot, hot flushes, fear of eating out or in front of other people, a persistent fear of failure, feelings of inferiority towards others, not being good enough, shy bladder in mainly men (paruresis). The D.S.M.IV Diagnostic and Statistical Manual(‘the mental health bible’) used by the psychiatric profession describes social phobia as “In a ‘nutshell’ social anxiety, social phobia is basically in any situation in your life where you may feel embarrassed, judged, on the spot, silly, out of control etc…
DENTAL PHOBIA (FEAR OF THE DENTIST) Fear of the dentist for most, is not just a phobia of being in the dentist’s chair, it can also extend to rob the sufferer of their self confidence, oral hygiene & their smile.
Estimates show that up to 15% of people avoid dental treatment entirely because of dental anxiety/fear. It’s likely, that as much as 80% of people will experience ‘some sort’ of dental anxiety when in the dental environment. Fear of the dentist can have a variety of sources: • Painful/negative experience during previous dental visits • Negative image of dentists on TV/Movies • A fear of invasion & lack of control while in the dentist’s chair • Sensitivity to the dentists ‘white coat’ mask, gloves • Hearing the sounds of the consulting room (drilling etc) • Careless comments from friends, family etc • A sense of embarrassment concerning presenting to the dentist with signs of dental neglect. If you suffer from any type of phobia, anxiety, panic attacks, compulsive disorders, unwanted habits etc.

HEALTH, HAIR & BEAUTY
Holiday Fitness You are three months into the new you, you have a renewed enthusiasm for fitness, your alcohol consumption has been reduced and the cupboards have been cleared of all those naughty things. The Olympics are looking hopeful! Just one thing? Will this all-go pear shaped on holiday? I find that I am actually more enthused to exercise whilst away. Less stress, sunshine and being more relaxed helps.
So let’s look at those opportunities whilst away It’s a great time to try a refreshing new fitness routine. For example, a simple early morning walk or jog along the beach followed by a couple of lengths in the pool before breakfast, is actually quite refreshing and sets you up for the day. I often try to do a couple extra lengths each day or if with teenagers try to challenge them, as this will make you work harder! “Aqua Gym” is often heard being shouted (Aqua Aerobics to you and I), but this is a completely different workout on your muscles and is very safe (as long as you can swim) and low impact.
So if you are a habitual jogger then try this and give your joints a week off Any class being offered should be tried as this might give you a sample of something new, which you can continue on your return home. Alternatively if you want to take equipment with you, then resistance bands, water weights dumbbell’s (which can inflated on holiday) are a good option and will give you a great workout. These usually come with a mini workout guide, so you have no excuses!
TOP TIPS 1. Write down everything that’s important in your life for increased immunity. Positive emotions will make you less likely to become ill. 2. Having a mug of something warm and milky before bedtime will help you sleep longer, thus a better you the next day. 3. Just 40g of chocolate per day can ease emotional stress. www.fitness2health.co.uk Facebook: Mark FitnessTrainer Telephone: 01780 783613 | April 2012

HEALTH, HAIR & BEAUTY HOME & GARDEN
Garden Scene By Joseph Whitehead www.gardenwiseadvice.com
JOBS FOR THE MONTH
With Spring well under way April can be, shall we say, a rather a busy month! A key time for sowing vegetables and annual flowers both in the greenhouse and direct in the warming soil, our lawns are thrusting skywards and at this time of year the weeds are often out competing with everything else! But I love it now the garden is alive once again and holidays beckon.
Holiday Time Kitchen garden • Sow autumn cabbages, late sprouts, courgettes, squashes and early sweetcorn, second early potatoes and main crop peas. Keep sowing every two weeks short rows of lettuce, spring onions beetroot and radish for the salad bowl. • Earth up first early spuds gently as the shoots grow • Keep some horticultural fleece handy to help protect plum and pear blossom from any late frosts.
To leave our treasured gardens all alone to fend for themselves can be cause for much concern. While my back is turned will armies of slugs or squadrons of pigeons lay waste to all that’s green, and what’s left may wilt away under the summer sun? It can be a worry so here are a few things we can do to help things tick over while we enjoy our time away. • Mulch plants that need additional watering with a good layer of garden compost to seal in any moisture around their roots. • Group plants in pots together, they will help to protect each other and reduce moisture loss from their foliage by increasing the humidity around them, also move them to a shady corner or north wall. • House plants benefit from being grouped together any way, place them on drip trays with a layer of gravel to increase humidity. • Hanging baskets and pots of bedding can soon succumb to drought so set up a simple drip irrigation system with a timer allowing pots to be efficiently watered if you are going to be away. • Mow your lawns • If you have plants or crops that require staking make sure this is in place • Deal with any pests or diseases that are causing issues.
30
• Encourage friends, family or neighbours to pop by to pick any produce that is ready for harvest and in return splash a little water around and keep an eye on your cherished plants.

Are You Taking the Biggest Risk of All? According to research published by the Nationwide, almost half of parents in the UK are leaving their families at risk because they do not have any life cover in place and over three-quarters, have no protection against the impact of a critical illness. It is a sad fact that whilst most of us are quite happy to insure our car, our house, our travel arrangements – and even our mobile phones – to their full value, few of us take quite as much care over our health and loved ones. The following questions may help you to start thinking about
• Do you have any assets which could be sold if you were
what is most important:
unable to work?
• Do you have young children or others who are dependent
If the answer to the first Three questions is NO and the last
Two is YES then you will probably be OK, if not then you need to
on you financially?
• Do you pay school fees or nursing home fees for others?
consider the options for protecting your family.
• Do you have debts (including a mortgage) which your
beneficiaries could not manage, even if it were only for a
short time?
If you need to talk to someone for impartial and independent advice call us today on 01778 342291
• Do you have investments which might provide income if
you were unable to work?
