Hello again I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed by the recent demise of stores like Comet and HMV which is blamed on shoppers choosing to buy white goods and music online (or not buy at all but download for free – illegally). These stories hit our newspapers and TV channels but little is reported on the independent retailers that are also suffering similar fates such as the pet store, Alphapet in Bitterne Park, due to close in April. The advantages of the internet are known but independent retailers deserve to be supported. In many cases their products are better value but you just don’t know that until you shop there, not to mention the personal service. But I believe retailers could do more to help themselves with innovative promotional ideas, creative window displays, e-marketing and in some cases modernisation. Discover Bitterne is all about connecting the local community to local businesses and services and retail is very much part of that. So we are planning an new feature for inclusion in the magazine. Directory of Independent Retailers In your next issue you’ll see a new directory of shops in and around Southampton and local high streets. If you are a retailer, please contact me for details and look out for details in the post or by email. Or better still visit www.discover magazines.co.uk and apply online to be included. Please support your local businesses. You’ll be sorry when they’ve gone.

How curvy Meg Porter lost 63 lbs & 53 inches Meg Porter epitomises what Curves is all about. one year ago Meg joined during a “6 weeks for £39” summer campaign. She walked into the club with hunched shoulders and head hung low, lacking confidence and feeling very shy and her conversation was quiet. She was size 24 tops and 28 bottoms. Meg’s main aim was to improve her health and decrease her size as she was worried that she would not be accepted for any medical operation, should the need arise. She also wanted to drop a dress size and buy ladies trousers. Jenny (her daughter) was graduating from university in November 2011 and Meg was turning 60 in May 2012. These were all great goals to aim for. Meg started with the Curves Circuit. She enjoyed it so much it became part of her daily routine. In September 2011, she started Zumba practicing at home, with her daughters help, to learn the moves and gaining even more confidence. This was quickly followed by the Curves Weight Management Plan. After 4 months, Meg had lost 29lbs and 26 inches. She stood tall and proud beside Jenny at her graduation and Jenny was very proud of her mum, too. Added to this, her doctor reduced her blood pressure medication as her health had radically improved. As Meg’s confidence grew, so did her presence around the club. She actively encouraged other members with the Weight Management Plan. She regularly attends and invites other members to join in with the Zumba classes and weekly walks. She has completed 380 workouts this year, which is amazing; she clearly loves Curves. The benefit of this commitment is that her strength, stamina, speed and suppleness have increased giving Meg a much improved quality of life. Meg has lost a total of 63 lbs and 53 inches. This vastly improved health has really supported Meg’s ability to care for her elderly mother. One year down the line Meg laughs and smiles. She fully participates in all the activities at the club. Her delightful personality adds to the social, caring and supportive atmosphere. “It was a huge compliment when she referred to us all as her friends on her 60th birthday when she enjoyed coffee and birthday cake after Zumba class.” said Wendy Peters of Curves Southampton. Meg wants to encourage others to do what’s she’s achieved. She takes posters to her local shops, enjoys talking to new members to make them feel welcome and she is thrilled to have the opportunity to show everyone just how Curves has worked for her. This shy, unexpecting lady has blossomed into a radiant woman.

Where did all that mud come from? New Year, New Challenge... Are you between 6-16 and 16-60 years old? then please, read on. One of the biggest myths about Scouting is that groups are closing down due to the lack of young people wanting to join – NOT SO - in this area we have waiting lists, so what is missing is enough adults to help. Volunteering as an adult is fun and rewarding, a chance to learn new skills and bring your hobbies and interests with you to share with the young people. Make new friends and rediscover adventure for yourself.

Scouting is about adventure, it encompasses many ways that challenge young people. To a very young Beaver Scout (6 – 8 years old) his or her first night away from home is as much an adventure as hang-gliding, canoeing or climbing to the older ones. We have the premises – the programme and the customers. All we need is YoU! Please help us, help them, help themselves. For more information please call 0845 604 6451 or 023 80 847 847.

DISCOVER HAMpSHIRE WAlkS Historical note... Timsbury derives its name from ‘timber + byrig’ meaning timber fort or manor. Similarly, Michelmersh derives its name from ‘micel + mersc’ meaning a large marsh. St Mary’s church at Michelmersh is of 12th century origin. It is alleged that Henry V rested his troops in Agincourt Field, situated just below the church, before their embarkation to France as part of the Hundred Years War. These troops it is said were fielded at the famous battle of Agincourt in 1415.
Timsbury & Michelmersh Walk distance 3.9 miles A downloadable pdf of the walk and enlarged map is available online at www.discovercommunity.co.uk Timsbury is situated on the A3057 Romsey to Stockbridge road a few miles north of Romsey. Park in Jubilee Hall car park at Timsbury which is sign posted from the A3057. Alternatively, park in the small lay-by just past the hall on the right hand side of the road. The Jubilee Hall should not be confused with the village hall in Heron Lane shown on the OS 131 map. Leave the car park and turn right along the road. Turn right onto a signed footpath and walk along the gravel track. At a fork in the track, keep right and walk past Hunts Farm. Emerge onto a road and turn right. Walk past the farm where the road is joined by another road from the right. Keep straight on for approximately 50 yards then climb the bank on your right onto a footpath running parallel to the road. The footpath descends to the road again adjacent to a pair of metal gates either side of the road. Continue straight on along the road. As the road turns sharp right, cross over a stile onto a signed footpath leading into a field. Continue straight ahead following the fence line and ignoring any crossing tracks. As the track bears left into a field, continue straight ahead onto a signed footpath through a woodland fringe with a field to your left initially then a field on your right. Cross a stile into a field walking along the right hand boundary on top of a ridge. The path drops down off the ridge to a stile. Cross the stile into a copse.
12
Emerge from the copse into a field. Walk along the left hand fence line. Cross a stile at the field boundary, turn left and cross a second stile to follow the right hand fence line of a field. The track goes straight on initially and then starts to veer left away from the fence. As the farm track starts to turn away left, look for a stile slightly diagonally right in the far hedge line. It is situated some 100 yards from the right hand corner of the field.
Cross the stile onto a gravel track, then cross two further stile directly opposite to emerge into a field. The original footpath here has been ploughed out, so follow the left hand field boundary to the field edge then turn right keeping the fence to your left. At a ‘T’ junction of paths, turn left onto a signed footpath across the centre of the field. Cross a stile into another field and follow the left hand fence line to the opposite side of the field. Cross a stile onto a gravel track and turn left. Follow the track to its junction with a tarmac road. Turn right to Manor Farm.
Walk through the farm going straight on along a gravel track as it rises slightly uphill. At a pair of private dwellings, the track turns sharp right. Continue straight on into what appears to be the entrance drive to the left hand bungalow. As you reach the gates, cross a stile on the right hand side to walk between the two properties. Cross yet another stile into a field. Walk across the field to a signpost located in the field centre. Ignore the path bearing left from this post, continue straight on to the field boundary. Cross a stile into a copse. Follow the path through the woodland and emerge into Agincourt Field. Follow the right hand fence line and go through a kissing gate into Mottisfont church graveyard. Cross the graveyard to a pair of wooden gates. Go through the gates and turn left away from the church. Go through another kissing gate and follow the path across the field to its far boundary. Follow the path through copse and emerge onto a grass and gravel track with gardens to your right. Follow the track to a kissing gate beside a metal gate. Pass through the gate to emerge onto a road. Turn right onto the road. At a ‘T’ junction, turn left and then right. Follow the road back to your car.
