Welcome to

the NOV / DEC 2014 edition

“Aim for the moon. If you miss, you may hit a star.” W. Clement Stone During October I spent a couple of days at a Publishers Conference, meeting with many other publishers of magazines just like this one. People travelled to the Heart of England conference centre from up and down the country, one even arriving from Australia! It is always lovely to spend time with fellow publishers and we all learn from one another and some good friendships have been formed.

Lots of planning for 2015 took place, and yes I will be aiming for the moon during my 10th anniversary year! (My first magazine Tickhill Today had its first issue in March 2005). I was honoured to be shortlisted for 3 awards at the evening awards ceremony, and I came home with a bottle of bubbly for ‘meeting deadlines’!

I am really pleased that following the appeal in last month’s magazine for community groups, schools and charities to contact me if they would like to promote themselves using this magazine, I have been contacted by several more organisations, a couple of which we welcome this month.

The offer is still there for others to get in touch. This is your community magazine, and your contributions are very welcome.

The next issues will be delivered to you in January. I can’t believe that we are talking about 2015 already! If you would like to have something included, please make sure details are with me by Monday 14th December

Enjoy Christmas and I will be back with you in the New Year.

Best wishes, Paula x

Belle Female JUNE 2013 3.5 Years No No Yes

Hello I’m Belle, I came to Mayflower as a puppy and I had extremely deformed front legs which have now been corrected. I am a wonderful, friendly Lurcher who only wants to please. I am looking for a new home because I wasn’t getting along with other dogs on a walk but I am responding very well to my carers training. I can get a little over the top with my willingness though and I will need firm leadership.

I will need to be an only dog but I do behave extremely well in the home and I am very loving towards children. If you would like to know anymore about me please don’t hesitate to ask one of my carers.

Cleo Female 14 July 2014 3 Months ?

Yes Yes

Cleo was taken into care with her sister because their previous owner hadn’t realised how much hard work two small kittens were.

Kittens of this age can be very destructive and need careful handling and socialisation if they are to grow into sociable, loving young cats.

Cleo is very loving and would happily be a lapcat given the chance.

She loves to play with other cats so it would be nice if she could be rehomed with a friend Her sister has been rehomed but Cleo is still waiting for her new family to arrive.

Please don’t make her wait too long.

Community Dementia Friends Support Caring for someone with dementia can be a long, stressful, and intensely emotional journey. But you're not alone.

In the UK, there are about 800,000 people living with dementia, and millions of others around the world. As a caregiving you can make the biggest difference to your loved one's quality of life. That is a remarkable gift.

• an opportunity to share information • a chance to meet other people with dementia and their carers • sharing experiences and resolutions to problems • emotional and practical support • information and sign posting about local services • an opportunity of joining in activities

However, caregiving can also become overwhelming. As your loved one's cognitive, physical, and functional abilities diminish over a period of years, it's easy to neglect your own health and well-being. The burden of caregiving can put you at increased risk for significant health problems you could experience depression, stress, and as a caregiver you may at some time experience sadness, anxiety, loneliness, and exhaustion.

Balby- St Peters (White Church) Hall Warmsworth Doncaster, DN4 0TW Monthly Meeting – Third Thursday of each month 10am

Seeking help and support along the way is not a luxury for caregivers; it's a necessity. However, there are strategies that can help make the caregiving journey as rewarding as it is challenging. Learning all you can about what is happening and what to expect on the dementia journey will not only help your loved one, but is also the first step towards protecting your own physical health.

Open Door Auctions success Open Door Auctions, the local family-run property business specialising in residential sales, has announced the success of its latest auctions – and is encouraging would-be sellers to come along to its upcoming events.

The firm hosts bi-monthly auctions in Retford and Gainsborough, and has sold more than 110 properties so far this year. Including 27 homes via two auctions in one week this October, achieving an average of £11,000 above the guide price.

The success of Open Door shows that residential auctions are becoming a very popular way to sell property; in fact, in the first six months of 2014, there was a massive 135% increase in sales by auction compared to the first six months of 2013. Recent trends have also shown that more and more vendors are taking “normal” houses to auction, not just homes in need of renovation as seen on the daytime TV show Homes Under the Hammer. This is largely due to protracted sales times: at the moment, the average length of time to sell a house is 13 weeks in Gainsborough, and 19 weeks in both Retford and Worksop.

Scooter Safe ...making you safer Free Mobility Safety Course & Crime Prevention South Yorkshire Police Community Safety Department with support from local mobility provider Parkgate Mobility and Doncaster 50+ Holmescarr Community Centre, Grange Road, Rossington, DN11 0LP Friday 21st November • 1 till 3pm

Graeme Naish, co-founder of Open Door Auctions, comments: “Selling at auction can be a great way of making sure that you get the best price and avoid any last-minute snags. With property auctions becoming more and more popular, the increase in demand for homes often leads to prices being pushed up, which is great for vendors who can also protect themselves through setting a reserve price. You also have the benefit of knowing that once the hammer falls, the contract is legally binding and the buyer has to complete within the agreed timeframe, usually 28 days.”

Interested?

“Selling your home at auction is becoming a successful way to move up the property ladder, so we’re inviting anybody interested in auctions to come to our next events in Gainsborough on Thursday 27 November and Retford on Tuesday 2 December.”

Please contact the Holmescarr Community Cafe on 01302 535 941

On the open market, potential buyers are able to make an offer before their own home is on the market. This can lead to complicated chains and a protracted sales process. By focusing on proceedable cash buyers, completing surveys before an auction and requiring a 10% deposit on exchange, auctioneers are able to avoid these sorts of problems.

So for vendors looking for a fresh approach for selling their home, and vendors who want a quick, legally-binding sale, selling a home at auction could be the solution. This, combined with the possibility of seeing the price driven up by enthusiastic purchasers bidding against each other, means that selling property at auction is, for many people, a positive way to go.

From 2pm-4pm (October to July)

One in three women is affected at some point by bladder, pelvic floor or prolapse symptoms. Often very distressing, these problems WILL NOT improve without action & can get worse as you get older.

WOULD YOU WOULD YOU LIKE AN X X RAY RAY LIKE AN OR A SCAN? SCAN? OR A

Ask for Jenny Blizard or Kate Stower who are specialists in Women’s Health Physiotherapy including bladder / bowel problems, ante-natal and post natal care, sexual problems, pelvic & lower back pain

For people experiencing painful joint or spinal problems, the answer to this question is often yes. The belief is that if we could just see inside the body, the cause of the problem would be clear and the solution evident.

If only it was this simple! Of course, x rays and scans are of great value in certain clinical situations e.g. fractures, osteoporosis and arthritic diseases. What they don’t do, however, is explain pain.

The most likely finding following an x ray or scan is degenerative changes. Degenerative changes occur when joint surfaces become scuffed and less smooth or soft tissues such as discs become drier and less spongy. This is much like developing grey hairs and wrinkles. Genetics and lifestyle (e.g. smoking and poor diet) may speed up this process but degenerative changes will occur in all of us eventually. And so it cannot be possible for degenerative changes per se to cause pain otherwise our clinic would be full of over 55’s (it isn’t!) and the nation’s elderly would all be in agony (they aren’t!) Often there isn’t a direct relationship between x ray findings and a patient’s clinical presentation. A patient might have a hugely restricted and painful hip suggestive of severe osteoarthritis with little evidence on x ray. Conversely, a patient may have gross degenerative changes on x ray but complain of little more than a minor discomfort whilst running.

So, rather than an x ray or scan, a thorough assessment and detailed examination is often far more useful in working out the cause of your problem and how best to treat it.

Eating with the locals in Barcelona Lee Jackson Report from

It all changed with the Olympics in 1992 Xavier explains, before this time the site of the Olympic village had been an area of disused industry and a dirty coastline with an equally dirty sea. Fast forward 22 years and the city is transformed, very much the view of Xavier, a proud Catalonian business owner who has returned to the city after 7 years in New York. As he says “where else can you get the city and beach mix that Barcelona offers, a lovely beach area and promenade combined with a vibrant innovative city that has been shaped both by the creations of Gaudi, by its historic centre and through the contemporary designs of recent times such as the Iconic W hotel and the Agbar Tower” This view is matched through the visitor numbers. Pre the Olympic Games Barcelona would not have been high on the agenda for foreign visitors. Xavier explains that before hosting the global sporting event the language on the streets was almost entirely Catalan whereas now in the popular sightseeing areas it is more likely that you will hear almost any other language! Says Xavier “it is hard to think of an Olympic host city that can point to such a transformation in its fortunes as that seen by Barcelona” As tourist interest has grown the city has responded with a glittering array of boutique and luxury hotels and fantastic dining options, and as always it helps to have the inside knowledge of a local to experience the best of the local cuisine.

On Xavier’s recommendation we visit Martinez which offers stunning views 18

of Bliss Travel of both the city and the harbour.

The restaurant serves “Probably the best Paella in Barcelona” and Xavier explains that the city shares it’s fondness for the famous rice based dish with Valencia due to the shared Catalan heritage. The mixed seafood and chicken version is excellent but superseded by the Black Paella recommended by my host and coloured and flavoured by the squid’s ink. The black version is aesthetically the most unappetising plate of food I have ever witnessed and resembles the burnt black residue of a kitchen disaster! The reality though is quite the opposite with a wonderful rich flavour that leaves me stealing more of my host’s food than I consume of my own dish.

For lunch the following day we visit La Barraca on the beachfront. I have the Bollota to start (Iberian cured ham from acorn fed free range pigs) followed by oven baked fish and shrimps with tomato and potato, the flavours of the fish infuse with the tomato and potato and as the dish is served from the pan I am encouraged to mop up all of the juices with the freshly baked bread. Here I am also encouraged to suck the body of the shrimp to witness the real flavour of the food. My host is both pleased and amused with my enthusiasm to engage with this practice but I have to agree it does lead to the real flavour On my hosts recommendation that

BESSACARR & CANTLEY TODAY

evening we dine at Els Pescadors a locals restaurant serving the best fish in the city. The restaurant terrace resides in the square of an old neighbourhood that preserves the flavour of the ancient city and the flavour of the location is surpassed by that delivered on the plate. After a sumptuous starter of clams in white wine sauce duly mopped up with Catalan tomato rubbed bread I have a main course of cod with garlic, piquillo peppers and smoked paprika, the final ingredient being a long-time favourite of the Iberian Peninsula. The food is excellent but priced accordingly and if it were not for the generosity of my host I would certainly reserve a repeat visit for a special occasion.

Beyond these restaurants Xavier recommends also Arenal a good option for Paella and seafood on the beach front at Barceloneta, and also Barcanete for expensive but outstanding tapas close to Las Ramblas .

My choice for the stay is a good one.

From a wide offering of boutique options I go for the 5 star Claris Hotel, well situated for La Sagrada, an easy stroll to the central shopping area and just two minutes from a direct rail link to the airport.

Garden View

Hedge Your Bets!

Ok, so it’s a terrible heading, but November is the perfect time for planting new hedges, and at this time of year it’s a very safe bet.

Prior to the use of containerised plants (which can be planted at almost any time of the year) planting between November and March was a gardeners only option, and as far as the plants are concerned it’s still the best by far.

When plants are dormant (asleep) they will hardly even notice being moved, and by spring when their new leaves emerge their roots will have already pushed through the surrounding soil in their new home.

Hedges are often thought of as hard work, time consuming and have been at the centre of heated neighbourly debates (whether it’s cutting them too low or letting them grow too high). They are great for blocking out unsightly views, adding privacy, and also make a wonderful place for wildlife to live, rest and nest. For the past 3 years we’ve had a variety of birds nesting in our Yew hedge and the addition of extra life in the garden always pleases me.

If you’re looking for a quick solution to a green screen, then you have two options, either instant (such as a 2m high instant hedge, pre grown, trained and clipped, perfect for the impatient gardener), or Leylandii conifers. As I write this I can hear 22

the screams, but it really is the best option for speed and it’s costeffective. Do be aware that legally, as of a couple of years ago, you have to keep its growth contained to 2m high if on a boundary (this does not apply to any other species).

For the more patient gardener, try the classic evergreen Yew hedging.

Like most beautiful things in life, it’s more expensive to buy. It’s also slower growing (15-30cm per year), but does only require cutting once per year in September, and will provide you with the most beautiful hedge. I also favour the evergreen Portuguese laurel, which has a smaller leaf than the more common cherry laurel, or Beech if it doesn’t need to be evergreen.

For a smaller hedge it has to be Box, but alternatives include Lavender, Berberis, Lonicera, and for the perfect no-cut low hedge go for a small Hebe, (simply choose a variety which only grows to the height you actually want the hedge to grow to).

Whichever hedge you choose, the ground preparation should be the same. For containerised, bare-root or root-balled hedges, dig out a trench which follows the line of the proposed hedge, this should be at least one and a half times wider and deeper than the rootball. Fork over the base of the trench and return some of the soil, so that when

BESSACARR & CANTLEY TODAY

you plant the hedge it sits at the same level as previously planted (i.e. not too deep). Backfill with the removed soil, add a handful of bonemeal per plant, and dig in. Firm with your boot then water well before mulching with 5cm of compost, manure or bark clippings.

Happy winter gardening

Until next time, happy gardening ,

Cantley Community Centre Well it’s almost that time of year again, when all our thoughts turn to Christmas, and, although this is a very hectic period you need to make time for yourself and your own interests. Here at Cantley we will be trying to manage both; by offering relaxing classes with a Christmas theme, Shirley’s flower arranging will be taking on a distantly festive theme as she demonstrates how to create Xmas table decorations, door wreaths, and Christmas garlands.

While in our IT classes we will be investigating how to production Christmas Cards and interactive Ecards and well as producing, card labels’ list which can be used year on year. We will of course, still offer our regular classes; and now is a good time to think about next terms classes.
