On Wednesday May 29, the Dolphin shopping centre in Poole will be taking its green initiatives to new heights with the launch of its new com-munity project, Don’t Drive Wednesdays.Dorset’s largest indoor shop-ping centre is calling on the people of Poole to join forces to help reduce the town’s car-bon footprint by using other transport options available to shoppers, tenants, staff and businesses. The green campaign has been initiated in response to results from market research which the Dolphin commissioned Bournemouth University to undertake at the start of this year. A total of 522 visitor sur-veys revealed:• 50 per cent of shoppers trav-elled to the centre by car • Two-thirds of shoppers (67 per cent) travelled less than � ve miles to get to the CentreDolphin centre manager, John Grinnell, said: “Since joining Dolphin in November 2011, I have been concentrating on looking at ways of saving en-ergy and reducing carbon foot-print with green initiatives. “Given that Poole has a popula-tion of approximately 147,600, the impact on the local envi-ronment can be signi� cant, especially in regards to CO2 emissions. “The Don’t Drive Wednesday’s campaign is a big step in helping reduce Poole’s

carbon footprint and we would encourage people to support this mission.” More bus is supporting the campaign by offering a special Don’t Drive Wednesdays bus ticket, which will only be available to down-load via their mobile app www.morebus.co.uk/app. For £3.50 passengers will be able to trav-el all day anywhere in Zone A.The Dolphin has also bought a further 36 bicycle racks for the centre and partnered with Cycle Paths to offer a free bike MOT to everyone who comes to the centre by bike on a Wednesday.Poole councillor, Xena Dion, added: “The Borough of Poole is committed to progressing sustainable transport and we believe encouraging people to leave their car at home, when possible, is the right way for-ward and even to increasing the provision of safer cycling routes and more ef� cient bus routes. “We recognise, that for a number of people, car use is an essential mode of travel, but for those who have easy access to bus routes and who perhaps are not regular bus us-ers we would ask them to ‘give it a go’!” John concluded: “So remember, as of Wednesday May 29 if you are coming into Poole town centre, whether it be for work, to meet friends or to shop, why not try a new form of transport, instead of bringing the car.”

Save Energy Group is pleased to announce they will be showcasing their renewable energy product portfolio at the forthcoming Bournemouth Re-newable Energy Marketplace, to be held at the Bournemouth International Centre BIC on the 18th June 2013. The � rst event of this nature to be held on home turf, Save Energy’s domestic and com-mercial divisions will be pull-ing out all the stops to ensure visitors go away fully up to speed with the latest technol-

ogies, tariffs and grants for renewable power, heating and hot water. Open to both busi-nesses and the public, Save En-ergy experts will be on hand to offer advice and will be ready to share case studies that will closely align to each visitor’s requirements.

DON’T DRIVEWEDNESDAYS

30 May 2013 – Bake sales took place all across Dorset earlier this month (6-12 May) in aid of Diverse Abilities Plus’ lat-est fundraising initiative, the Great Dorset Bake Sale. In its second year, the week-long event raised nearly £3,000. This is of unbelievable value to the charity, and will fur-ther support local children and adults with profound disabilities, and their families, throughout their life.

A number of local organi-sations, the charity’s head of� ce and other services Di-verse Abilities Plus support, were involved in this year’s initiative and held bake sales. Local companies in-cluded Haskins Garden Cen-tre in Ferndown, Specsavers Poole, HOUSE Magazine, The Furlong Centre in Ring-wood, Harbour Stores in Lyme Regis and the Emerge Group in Bournemouth. All baked a selection of cakes in aid of Diverse Abilities Plus and raised much needed funds towards the fundraising

total. Beccy Payne, Commu-nity Fundraising Of� cer, for Diverse Abilities Plus said: “The second Great Dorset Bake Sale was a great success! We raised a large amount of money, which will now help support children and adults with profound disabilities and their families. We would like to thank everyone for getting involved. The stand-ard of baking was once again extremely high and all the cakes looked delicious!” The idea behind the Great Dorset Bake Sale followed on from the success of the charity’s recipe book, Scrumptious Home Baking, which includes recipes from local chefs, celebrities and key supporters of Diverse Abilities Plus.For further information on Diverse Abilities Plus or to purchase Scrumptious Home Baking, please vis-it the charity’s website - www.diverseabilitiesplus.org, call 01202 718266 or email [email protected].

RELIC-FILLED HOMES TO RELISHThere’s an almost tangible feeling of calm and comfort as you enter Alex Legendre’s house with its muted palette of earthy colours, lath and plaster walls, wide reclaimed floorboards and collection of quirky treasures.

Everywhere the patina of age is not just obvious but celebrated, and even uttering the word ‘new’ would seem disrespectful.

“I’ve always believed that collecting objects that others in the past have loved, whether or not you ever knew their owners, and making those things special in your life, is good for your soul,” she says, summing up her down-to-earth decor philosophy.

But Legendre happily admits her addiction for “old things” would have remained a private and personal passion had it not been for a chance encounter.

Remarkably, it has led to a lifestyle concept - promoted through a shop and most recently a new book, A Life Less Ordinary - that has an influence far beyond the confines of her home.

It was 14 years ago when, in what she describes as a “serendipity moment” -

a happy accident - she met Zoe Ellison, and their creative partnership was born.

“I happened to go into a clothes shop which Zoe was helping her mother to run and we just got talking. At the time we were at different stages in our life,” she explains.

“She was in her twenties, headstrong and hungry for success, while I was married with a small child just looking for a return to work.

“But even from the start it was clear that we had virtually identical taste. We share an addiction to the atmosphere you get from old things and both of us revel in the beauty of commonplace objects which have been passed from hand to hand, gathering a history over the years.”

Their friendship blossomed, as did their ambition to help others share their vision for living where homes are furnished with reclaimed and sensitively restored furniture and homeware.

In 2003 they opened i gigi, a general store in Brighton, where they conjure inspiring settings mirroring those in their own homes, which feature in their book.14

In 2003 they opened i gigi, a general store in Brighton, where they conjure inspiring settings mirroring those in their own homes, which feature in their book. 15

INTERIORS

In the living room, the historic skeleton of the house’s past is unashamedly laid bare, with walls stripped back to the lath and plaster and painted cream.

“Flaking paintwork, the cracks of time in leather, the foxing of mirror glass, give pieces all the more character,” enthuses Legendre.

A few pieces hold centre stage: a vintage Chesterfield sofa, reupholstered to full glory in thickly woven hemp sourced in Hungary, and an old military chest for a coffee table.

Elsewhere surfaces are adorned with seemingly random objects - children’s Victorian leather shoes, sea coral and gilded frames - but their harmonious colour palette gives cohesion to the groupings.

Flair and imagination also play a key role, as Legendre proves with her clever adaptation of an old linen cupboard which acts as a hideaway for essential 21st century technology, a TV and computer.

Similarly, in her bathroom a Victorian desk is adapted as a base for a bathroom wash basin, with vintage cheese boxes beneath housing toiletries. Towels are hung from a Shaker-style peg rail.

“The reason for our passion for the store is simple - we live our lives like this,” says Legendre, 40.

“We recycle not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it’s a way of making our homes, and i gigi, original and unique. We have nothing thatis mass-produced.

“We’re compulsive gatherers looking for things which are old and weathered, and tell a story in their craftsmanship.”

Legendre, who lives with her husband Keith, 47, and 18-year-old daughter Mizzy, delights too in making the ordinary look extraordinary, which is demonstrated eve-rywhere in her home.

There’s a charm about the seating in the kitchen which includes an old church pew dressed with cushions made from antique grain sacks, and French apple crates house the family’s wine collection.

Collections continually catch the eye from cream china to plaster moulds for silver spoons from the 19th century, which are displayed in her stripped pine kitchen dresser. Even utility items such as a group of breadboards become an attractive focus when hung on a wall.

“Flaking paintwork, the cracks of time in leather, the foxing of mirror glass, give pieces all the more character.”

Her bedroom is an oasis of peace with an almost monastic feel with its pale, white-washed walls. A set of wooden French rosary beads is used as the sole wall decoration.

The bed, dressed in a medley of textures - linen, wool, silk and sumptuous velvet, is in striking contrast with the unconven-tional storage, an animal hide dowry trunk, from India, sitting atop a pine blanket box.

Nature and natural materials are essen-tial ingredients at the heart of this decor recipe. So, appropriately, instead of formal, over-stylised flower arrangements, she favours the simplicity of dried flowers and plants in stone urns.

There’s evidence of family beachcomb-ing outings in decorative baskets filled with pebbles and seaweed.

Unsurprisingly, Ellison’s flat nearby has a similarly intriguing and effortlessly chic interior where recycling rules.

She demonstrates the same talent for combining character with function in her use of pieces, collected during her travels around the world.

A Turkish oil jar is used as a table base, and a papier mache refrigerator inlaid with glittering shards of mirror, found in India, serves as a focal point in her living room fireplace.

Reclaimed wide oak floorboards and cabinets painted in smoky blue-grey give a restful, rustic feel in her kitchen, but it transcends the predictable with the dramatic positioning of two large weath-ered antique pillars with carved detail.

Ellison chose to name their shop, where pieces are sourced from all over Europe, after the Igigi, said to be gods of the skies and earth in Mesopotamian mythology.

“The shop is like our baby,” she says. “The shelves are our canvas and the furniture is our backdrop. It’s grown-up and now is really showing us all the hard work was worth it.”

In their work at the store and for individ-ual clients, the pair advise people to follow their instincts about style.

“Home is such a tiny word for an important place,” says Ellison, 35.

“For all of us it’s where we want to feel safe and warm, protected and comfort-able, and where you need to feel your most authentic self.

“There shouldn’t be rules to follow. We love interiors that are created for the way people live and are individual spaces, filled with objects reminiscent of people and places.

Two friends, two homes, one shop and a lifestyle which could inspire your decor.

“We want people to be adventurous, shun convention, be inspired by their surroundings and fall in love with their own harmonious setting”

“The shop is like our baby,” she says. “The shelves are our canvas and the furniture is our backdrop. It’s grown-up and now is really showing us all the hard work was worth it.”

In their work at the store and for individ-ual clients, the pair advise people to follow their instincts about style.

“Home is such a tiny word for an important place,” says Ellison, 35.

“For all of us it’s where we want to feel safe and warm, protected and comfort-able, and where you need to feel your most authentic self.

“There shouldn’t be rules to follow. We love interiors that are created for the way people live and are individual spaces, filled with objects reminiscent of people and places.

Two friends, two homes, one shop and a lifestyle which could inspire your decor.

“We want people to be adventurous, shun convention, be inspired by their surroundings and fall in love with their own harmonious setting”

Millions of families will be offered Government help to buy homes without saving up a big deposit under a major scheme unveiled by The Chancellor of the Exchequer.

The government's £12bn scheme to help homebuyers by offering mortgage guarantees could also be used by homeowners to fund a second property.

The mortgage guarantee is the next stage of the Help to Buy scheme unveiled in the chancellor's budget, and will shortly offer government backing on high loan-to-value (LTV) home loans.

Under the plans, borrowers will be able to get access to 95% mortgages with the government guaranteeing a portion of the loan to reduce the mortgage lender's risk.

Although designed to help those who are unable to

assistance, the small print of the scheme does not rule out all borrowers taking up the offer of a mortgage guarantee from the government.

SHOW THE YELLOW CARD

We’re all suffering from a lack of sunshine. And while there’s no magic wand to change the murky outlook, you can set the forecast to ‘sunny’ by em-bracing the brightest trend on the decor horizon - yellow.

Warm, golden sandy tones, reminiscent of sun-drenched beaches, through to vibrant canary shades can’t fail to banish the gloom and bring light and cheer to dull rooms. “After a prolonged period of cold, wintry weather, no other colour brings such an instant injection of warmth and sun to the home than carefully chosen shades of yellow,” says Rishi Subeathar, founder

of eico, the environmentally-friendly paint specialists. If you’re wedded to neutrals and even the thought of yel-low has you wincing and reaching for your sunglasses, it could be time to overturn your colour prejudice. “It’s true that yellow needs to be used with care so that it doesn’t overwhelm, or look as though you’ve covered a room in custard!” acknowl-edges Subeathar.

“But all its shades are mood-enhancing, from sun-flower brights to softer but-tery pastels. There’s a yellow shade to suit most discerning tastes and interiors.”

YELLOW SHAKE-UP

Soft buttery yellows are more in sympathy with the decor style of a period or country home and will conjure a restful and peaceful atmosphere

Making a statement in a room with a splash of yellow is one of the easiest ways to create a chic, modern setting. “Paint a feature wall in a bold, bright cit-rus and then balance its intensity by us-ing grey-based neutrals or subtle whites on the other walls,” suggests Subeathar. “If that’s too daring for your taste, simply use a deep yellow shade for alcoves to conjure depth and richness.”

IT’S FATHER’S DAY - SO DAD, HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH?Just how much does a typical Dad do around the house in a week? A siz-able 50 hours- 20 of which are dedicated to looking after children! A financial value of £21,306 a year! That’s how much you are worth, Dad! The findings, according to a report from Legal & General in 2011, means that this is what it would cost to pay someone else to do Dad’s housework and share of child-minding! An average of £29,000 salary is earned by a working Dad, and the stakes are high if Dad died or is unable to work long term due to illness! Families need to think about how they would cope financially if Dad was no longer providing an income. According to the research in L&G’s report, only 64% of Dads have life insurance, 22% had Income Protection (to protect their salaries) and only 19% had a policy that would pay out a monthly income if Dad died!

Your family is important to you, and that’s why you spend your time caring for them and giving them the best lifestyle possible. Having personal protec-tion cover in place helps to ensure that, should the worst happen, you have the finances in place to help your family maintain their current lifestyle.

latest financial advice.

We are a nation of aspiring homeowners, flocking to banks to borrow a small fortune for the dubious honour of saying we ‘own’ our home. You would think that the financial crisis would put us off the idea of owing money to Britain’s toxic banks, many of which are being funded through our taxes anyway. But new figures released last week show that mortgage lending is actually at its highest level since 2007, when the property market crashed spectacularly.

First-time buyers are leading the way, attracted by lower house prices and Government incentives such as shared-equity schemes. In an ironic twist, this new property resurgence comes as the previous generation of mortgage-own-ers approach the end of their interest-only terms with no means of paying off the capital. According to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), more than 1.3 million people will not be able to repay the capital when their interest-only mortgage comes to an end, with the average shortfall amounting to £71,000. So how do you avoid building up an unsustainable mortgage debt? And if you are already struggling to meet your capital payments, what can you do to avoid repossession?

AFFORDING YOUR MORTGAGE The low repayments of interest-only mortgages can be tempting, particularly for first-time buyers or people on lower incomes. For the first couple of years you may want the benefit of making smaller repayments on your mortgage while you spend money on the property, or elsewhere. But sooner or later, you will have to figure out how you are going to repay the capital when the mortgage term completes. The best way of doing this is to get into a regular pattern of saving, either in a high-interest, long-term bond, or in an ISA wrapper. With a long-term bond (10 years or more) your money is tied up for a set period of time, earning a fixed rate of interest. As a general rule, the longer the term, the higher the interest rate, for instance, while a UK Gilt 10 Year Yield pays 1.92%, a 30-year version pays 3.19%. No tax is paid on the capital or interest of the bond until it has been fully encashed, so you can time the encashment to coincide with your retirement, when your tax liability will be a bit lower. If you opt to save through a Cash ISA or a Stocks and Shares ISA, if may be worth choosing one which does not offer easy access to your funds, to avoid the temptation of dipping into your house savings on a rainy day. If you were to save your full Cash ISA allowance of £5,760 every year, it would take you around 12 years to save up the average national shortfall of £71,000.

INTERVIEW

Five minutes with...

George Lawrence

‘Moving home’ has always gone hand in hand with stress; we know this, most of us have been there. It’s one of the most stressful events in our lives. The property negotiator becomes the ‘doctor’ if you will, to diagnose the need, impart knowledge, give advice, assist and prescribe; ensuring the process is informed, efficient, effective…and as peaceful as possible.

George Lawrence, Sales Manager of Chiswell & Co prescribes ‘empathy’ as the medicine for any move. “If you haven’t got empathy for your client, you haven’t got a property business” states George. “How can you find the perfect home for your client if you don’t understand who they are and what they need? How can you sell a property without realising the pressure on the vendor of presenting their home to strangers? How can you match tenants to a ‘let’ without knowing your landlords and listening to the requirements of all parties? Empathy is the key” he says.

“I honestly feel that estate and letting agency isn’t just about ‘knowing the market’- our business is people and Empathy is the key

George Lawrence, Sales Manager of Chiswell & Co talks to House about his new office,

SO, TELL US A BIT ABOUT THE

COMPANY?

The two directors of the previous agency based in this office went their separate ways, so we have now taken over with an aim to build on the success they previously had. It’s been a tough 6 months, but with the new branding and restructuring in place we can fully focus on serving our existing portfolio of clients, as well as being proactive to take instructions on more properties for our waiting list of buyers and tenants.

We are a truly independent and family-run business; so the beauty is the flexibility we all have in our positions.” Chiswell & Co boast a large and inviting office, in a prominent location on Terrace Road in centre of Bournemouth. They employ the use of all the latest technology and marketing methods, and offer extremely competitive rates, but George also attributes part their success to more heart-felt measures.

“We are on first-name terms with our clients because we work hard at our professional relationships. Although it feels like we have started something new, we are already well established in the Bournemouth region…a number of our landlords have been with the previous agency here for years, and our business continues to grow because of word-of-mouth advertising and, repeat custom. Ultimately it’s all because of how we treat people.”

It seems that a little of that empathy goes a long way;

SHARON CANNINGMOVE ON RENTALS

My girlfriend and I moved out of our property last month at the end of our tenancy. We then went on holiday for two weeks and realised we had not handed in our keys, which we duly did on our return. The landlord is insisting on charging us two weeks extra rent and wanting to deduct it from our deposit. Can he do this? I have looked all through my tenancy agreement and cannot find any details on this.

If a tenant fails to return the keys, this is normally taken to mean he has not given up the tenancy and therefore can be open to lots of issues for the landlord, even if the tenant has actually moved out. Handing in your keys is your officially surrendering of the property at the end of your tenancy. (I will add this does not apply during a tenancy). It could be deemed that as you have held on to the keys you were still intending to re-enter the property, maybe you still had belongings inside?. Also, for the all the landlord knew, you might have deliberately withheld the keys because you still needed to use the property itself. A landlord cannot re-let a property until he has received the keys back, unless he arranges to have the locks changed. However, he needs to be careful about changing the locks, as the tenant may then claim unlawful eviction, which is a criminal offence. Therefore, it is not unreasonable for your landlord to claim the two weeks rent from your deposit.

If you have any questions or you would like a friendly coffee and chat about your rental property then please contact Move On 01202 711169 or email [email protected]

DISCOVERING THE ART AND SOUL OF AMSTERDAM

hints at many untold stories and which depicted groundbreaking realism in its day. The colossal 363cm by 437cm painting sits at the end of a long corridor lined with Vermeers and works from the 17th century Golden Age, and it’s as if not only the entire collection but also the Rijksmuseum itself was built around this one focal point. In fact, when the painting was re-hung in the gallery, following the works, it was done so with a procession through the streets, attracting almost as big a crowd as a royal parade.

But what really makes the Rijksmuseum a triumph is its commitment to Dutch art. Very few national galleries can claim a homegrown work as their star attraction.

Displays are something the Dutch do well, and walking along the narrow canal paths, it’s impossible not to be distracted by inviting shop windows. Colourful wooden clogs and dazzling blue and white Delft pottery vie for attention with neon design-led furnishings and even women gyrating in leather bikinis - should you stray too far into the red light district.

Locals are historically house proud, and cleaning the steps to buildings is a tradition that goes back centuries; some are so clean, you could even sit on them - which most people do. Others set tea tables outside as an extension of their living room, while on my visit I even stumbled into one old man sunbathing unashamedly in his pants on a deck chair.

The most picturesque and charismatic canal is undoubtedly Prinsengracht, cutting through the artistic areas of Jordaan and Pijp, and some of the best cafes, bars and restaurants can be found here. Beer is a serious business, with an excellent choice on tap, but if you want to fit in with the locals, swap exports such as Amstel and Heineken for city brews - try Brouwerij‘t Ij in the south east of the city, an organic brewery which sits beneath a windmill. But if you just want to watch

Bicycles jingle and clatter across red-brick bridges - some carrying “wheelbarrows” filled with children, others with passengers ridingside-saddle on the back.

While locals confidently tear through the streets at ferocious speed, a group of tourists riding convoy pedal nervously, hand signalling every turn.

Canals are equally busy with boats gently slicing through the sun-dappled water, while on land riverside bars have strewn blankets and cushions over concrete ledges to create surprisingly inviting daybeds.

Window boxes are bursting with sunset-orange flowers, the tulip season is in full swing, and spring has arrived in Amsterdam.

At the beginning of April, national gallery the Rijksmuseum, home to the world’s

largest collection of Rembrandt paintings, reopened to the public after an epic 10-year renovation - which perhaps also explains why the streets of the sea-hemmed city are so busy today.

From the outside, the building has been restored to its gleaming 1885 glory, but inside Spanish architects Cruz y Ortiz have diverted the path of a canal to create a light-filled auditorium - a palette-cleansing introduction to the shades of grey, dark and light that leap from the masterpieces housed within.

For the first time, the museum’s 8,000-plus artefacts have been displayed in chronological order, including religious panels from the Middle Ages right through to a newly-acquired Mondrian-inspired dress by designer Yves Saint Laurent.

But the real showpiece is Rembrandt’s Night Watch, an intriguing work that

the watery world go by, there’s no better spot than the corner of Prinsengracht and Leidsegracht, with a drink from delightful 17th century brown bar De Pieper, which still has a 19th century Belgian beer pump in operation.

Glossy boats captained by Penelope Pitstop lookalikes carry champagne-sipping picnickers, while downmarket dinghies whizz past with peroxide blondes listening to techno, and tourist boats saunter slowly - some even hosting five-piece jazz bands. Although the canal ring celebrates its 400th anniversary this year, it’s still very much a part of everyday Dutch life.

Patriotic pride and a respect for the past form the foundations of this city, with the national coat of arms - three St Andrew’s crosses - adorning everything from classic Amsterdammertje (brown steel traffic bollards) to flags fluttering from apartment windows.

Where to stay

Andaz Amsterdam: With giant porcelain bells hanging above the ipad-operated reception and an orbital light installation rising to a glass roof, this new five-star property is just as much modern art gallery as hotel.

From 5pm-7pm, the hotel offers a free pour wine service in the plush library, with Nespresso coffee and fresh-baked cakes available all day.

To top it off, the location on Prinsengracht is excellent. Doubles from £276 including breakfast. Visit amsterdam.prinsengracht.andaz.hyatt.com

Where to eat

Bluespoon: Part of the Andaz Amsterdam hotel, this smart but inviting restaurant is dedicated to local produce. Based around an open kitchen, guests can dine on codfish stamppot or North Sea king crab salad while looking out to the Alice in Wonderland-inspired garden. Mains from 20 Euros. Visit amsterdam.prinsengracht.andaz.hyatt.com

What to see

Rijksmuseum: Without doubt the current highlight of a trip to Amsterdam. Reserve two or three hours to explore the gallery properly. Visit www.rijksmuseum.nl

Where to shop

Cheese Museum. If your house is cluttered with knick-knacks, an edible souvenir is worth considering. From Gouda to Edam, the Dutch have created some fine cheeses and there are more than 100 available to purchase here. Many are sealed so you can legally wheel them through customs. Visit Prinsengracht 112

Margaret, 75, living with cancerMy day didn’t start too well. Everything had got on top of me and I felt really low. When I called the Macmillan Support Line, I didn’t know where to start. But somehow they helped me find the words. Just talking honestly about how I felt was such a relief. Now I don't have to cope with the bad days on my own.

At Kingspace, we have what it takes to change the way you live. A visit to us will open your eyes to the many different possibilities a garden offers for outdoor living all year round. There’s really no reason anymore why you should be stuck inside merely because it’s wet or cold outside. Not when you could be cosily ensconced in a glassroom.

Come and see our show space. Your life may never be quite the same again.

All submerged in the warm, bubbling water of a hot tub. Or cooking a meal for friends in one of our barbecue lodges. These are just some of the ways you can transform the garden into an extension of your home. And we can make it happen.

THREE WAYS TO...

REVIVE YOUR GARDEN AFTER THE LONG WINTER

Garden and landscape designer James Alexander-Sinclair, offers the following tips:

Make sure that contain-ers and window boxes get enough water.

Lawns will be recovering well by now given a bit of warm weather so will need cutting. For the first couple of mowings, keep the blades quite high to avoid scalping he turf.

Herbaceous plants will be growing fast, so make sure you have stakes in place now to support them be-fore they get too big.

THE SWEDISH APPROACH TO GARDENING

ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO...

Keep an eye out for slugs and snails, especially after rain showers.

Protect vulnerable seedlings and plants (such as hostas) with copper rings or sharp grit.

Warmer weather equals more weeds. There’s no easy shortcut, you need to get out there and get stuck in.

Sow hardy annual seeds for seasonal colour for later in the year.

Daffodils which have been forced can be knocked out of their pots and planted among trees and shrubs to establish themselves for flowering in the open next year.

Give roses, fruit and veg a dressing of fertiliser. In dry weather use dry feeds, hoeing them into the surface where they will be washed in by watering or rain.

Sow cinerarias now for flower at Christmas and follow on with successional sowings in May and June.

Support peas with plastic green support mesh from the garden centre or use twiggy sticks and prunings from other shrubs in the garden.

Feed blackcurrants, blackberries and hybrid ber-ries with a high-nitrogen feed to give them a wel-come boost.

Thin shoots on perennials such as delphiniums, lupins and phlox, removing about one in three or four of the shoots depending on how crowded they are.

Continue to plant summer bulbs including gladi-olus, dahlias and cannas.

WHAT TO DO THIS WEEK:IN YOUR GARDEN

Make the most of the sunny days this June and get out in the garden to tend to your plants and shrubs. The more time we spend early in the year the easier it makes the maintenance in the summer.

GOOD ENOUGH TO EATTOMATOES FROM SEED

It may be a while before any of us dare to put out our tomatoes, but now is the time to sow seeds indoors to work to a fruitful harvest later on. Sow seeds now a quarter-inch deep in pots or trays of good, free-draining seed compost and cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Ideally containers should be placed in a propagator at a temperature of 18-21C until after germination, which usually takes around a week to 10 days. If you don’t have a propagator, cover the pot with cling film and put it in a warm place such as an air-ing cupboard. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, tease them out of the original pot, hold-ing the tip of the leaves, not the stem, and pot them individually in to 8cm pots. Water well and keep them at 18C for a few days, gradually reducing the temperature to 15C. Turn them regularly if you are growing them on the windowsill so that they grow straight and by the end of May or beginning of June it should be safe to plant them outside. If they out-grow their pots in the meantime, re-pot them into larger ones to prevent a check to growth. Good va-rieties include ‘Gardener’s Delight’, a cordon variety producing sweet, cherry tomatoes, and ‘Matador’, a cordon beefsteak which should give you plenty of large, tasty tomatoes.

They have a reputation for being difficult, but most varieties are hardy and if you grow them in a sheltered spot, possibly close to a wall or protected by nearby shrubs, they should give you glossy foliage all year round and beautiful, blousy blooms during the spring, in all shades of pink and some white or red. Grow them in pots in ericaceous compost and they shouldn’t let you down. The common camellia, japonica, produc-es spectacular single red blooms in mid to late spring and is best in borders, as it grows to an impressive 9m. C. ‘Leonard Messel’ is smaller and ideal for colder gardens on acid soil in a lightly shaded border, where it is not exposed to early morning sun. It should do well in a large pot.

BEST OF THE BUNCHCAMELLIA

TIP:Camellias can be pruned after flower-ing to keep the plant tidy or compact, although some have an arching open habit and aren’t improved by pruning.

Swedish design goes much further than Ikea, thanks to Swedish garden designers including award-winning Ulf Nordfjell, who is currently prepar-ing for his forthcoming show garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Yet it is possible to bring Swedish de-sign to your own garden, giving it a more contemporary feel with clean lines and good use of symmetry, he says. “Sweden doesn’t really have the same tradition as the UK in terms of its gardening. England has a much richer history with many different styles, ranging from old and traditional to extremely modern,” he explains. “In Sweden we favour clean, simple lines and like to create the feeling of space. Most notably, Swedish gardens must be adaptable to the harsh climate, so we use materials that can cope with that such as granite concrete, timber

and steel. “We have extreme winters and long summer days and so have to carefully select plants that can cope with these conditions. In the summer when it stays light until late, you can go out and do your gardening at 3am.” Sharp lines can emphasise any struc-tures in the garden and are unusual as they are so rare in nature. They can also draw the eye to your focal point, he observes. “One way to do this is by pruning hedges. In the Laurent-Perrier garden, I have pruned quercus hedges, which are underlined by low walls of travertine. These draw the attention to the pergola, where there is an elegant water feature.

Water can be a great way to add character to your garden. It adds movement and you can easily build around it

You can be creative and choose a sculpture or piece of art for added in-terest. “Rather than placing it central-ly, French gardeners will often place

statues to the side, which creates different areas of interest around the garden.” His favourite British plants in-clude Anemone ‘White Swan’, Iris ger-manica, stipa grasses and taxus (yew) hedges. His Chelsea show garden will be a contemporary take on a romantic garden, acknowledging the heritage of the family-owned Laurent-Perrier champagne house while incorporat-ing a modern elegance. He has chosen simple materials such as stone, wood and metal, complemented by peren-nials in a colour palette of soft pinks and blues, as well as creamy oranges, yellows and whites.Perennials will be planted in blocks in different layers, including iris, viola, dianthus, stipa and verbascum in full sun and thalictrum, gillenia, aruncus and anemones in half shade.Gardens in Sweden are very focused on spring, which takes place in April and May in southern Sweden and a couple of weeks from the end of May in the north. There’s another peak of interest in mid-summer, but the focustends to be on structural design rather

than plants. While there is more inter-est in perennials these days, Sweden does not enjoy late-flowering plants that are abundant in this country, says Nordfjell. He has been inspired by many British designers, from Vita Sackville-West to Christopher Bra-dley-Hole, Julie Toll, Andy Sturgeon, Tom Stuart-Smith and Jinny Blom.But among his favourites is the late Ulla Molin, a Swedish designer re-nowned for introducing modernism in gardening by using strong materials, soft colours and fewer, more selective plants. His own personal favourites for each season, which are easily grown in this country and will add both col-our and texture to the garden scene, include Cornus sanguinea ‘Winter Flame’ in winter; Scilla siberica, Hel-leborus nigra and Fritillaria meleagris ‘Alba’ in spring; Dicentra Formosa ‘Au-rora’, Iris sibirica ‘Silver Edge’, Paeonia ‘White Wings’, Rosa moyesii ‘Nevada’ and Phlox paniculata ‘Rosa Pastell’ in summer; and Anemone ‘Honori-ne Jobert’ and Gentiana makinoi in autumn.

Growing herbs at home is easy and can be adapted to any outdoor space that you have, suitable for planting in borders, containers or windowsills. They look and smell great, require very little mainte-nance and can attract beneficial insects to the garden, in addition to bringing fresh, natural flavours to any meal or BBQ.

Flavour soon starts to fade on cutting so growing herbs at home where you can harvest and consume within minutes is always preferable to supermarket alternatives, as well as saving you money in the process. Here are a few suggestions to might want to consider to get started.

WHAT TO GROW

WHERE TO GROWIN THE GARDEN

Most herbs are best suited to a sunny, sheltered site with well-drained soil, although there are few that will tolerate more shady conditions, such as parsley, mint, rocket and chives.

Perennial herbs look great as part of a mixed border, in raised beds, veggie gardens or containers, with evergreen selections such as rose-mary and sage also adding winter interest to the garden.

Annuals and biennials are fast growing and are better suited to con-tainers or the veggie patch.

IN CONTAINERS

Two or three containers near the back door overflowing with herbs can be a great addition to even the smallest of outdoor space, they can be a hanging basket, galvanised bucket, window box or wooden trough.

HOW DO I LAY INDIAN SAND STONE OR ANY NATURAL

STONE PAVING ?Techniques for laying Indian sandstone paving are different, the thickness variation of Indian Sandstone requires it to be laid on a 4 parts sharp sand: 1 part cement semi dry mix. The wetter mix allows the finished height of individual paving slabs to be adjusted to counter the variation in thickness. When mixing mortar for natural stone it is important that the correct amount of water is added. If the mix is too dry it will lack the flexibility required to adjust the finished height of the paving slabs. If the mix is too wet then the slabs can sometimes sink under their own weight.

CLEANBURN is our innovative new technology – it’s not just better for the stoves, it’s also better for the environment.

The idea behind Cleanburn is to maximise combustion, so that more fuel is burnt and less is turned into deposits in the stove, chimney, or atmosphere.

Our Cleanburn stoves have been proven to have lower emissions, which makes them among the most eco-friendly models on the market.

Cleanburn Technology

The New Hunter ‘Internal Lining System’ maximises the firebox temperature, ensuring complete combustion.

‘Tertiary Air’ re-ignites the un-burnt gases ensuring a cleaner burn.

Many period properties (as well as some modern ones) were built with wooden windows, but in more recent decades, replacing them with UPVC ones has been popular. If, like me, you’re a big fan of wooden windows and less keen on the plastic variety, this can be a home improvement too far, so has wood been unfairly given a bad press?

Now it’s true that wooden windows do need to be main-tained - once varnish or paint chips, cracks or flakes off, the wood is vulnerable to the el-ements. This can lead to rot and if left untreated for long enough, rot will start eating away at the wood, which can be terminal.

UPVC windows can also de-teriorate over time, to the point where they look dated, discol-oured and shabby, and while they can be painted, most peo-ple don’t. Wooden windows can at least be repaired easily.

Wood is often the only choice available when install-ing new windows in a listed building, and usually the pre-

ferred choice on ‘designated land’, such as conservation areas (ask your local council if in doubt).

In some areas, replacing wooden windows with UPVC ones will devalue your home, while in others, fitting double glazing, which traditionally meant UPVC windows, is ad-visable, although, of course, wooden windows can be dou-ble or even triple glazed.

UPVC windows are generally cheaper than wooden ones and they’re not necessarily period imperfect - you can get UPVC sash windows, for example.

However, they don’t have the beauty and authentic-ity of wood, which, providing it’s sourced sustainably, is a more environmentally friendly choice.

If you can afford them, wooden windows offer better value for money because they last longer - many 19th century houses still have the original sash windows, which is pretty good going. Similarly, modern wooden windows are a great long-term investment.

STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS

When wood gets wet rot, it can seem disastrous, but it’s not hard to treat, especially if you catch it early. Simply scrape out of the worst of the rot, apply Ronseal Wet Rot Wood Hardener with an old paintbrush and work it in well (drill holes in the wood for deeper penetration). The hardener dries quickly and turns soft wood rock hard so you can fill on top and make a seamless and long-lasting repair. From £6.98 250ml B&Qwww.diy.co.uk

Window frames made by members of the Wood Win-dow Alliance (WWA; www.woodwindowalliance.com), for example, have an estimated service life of 60 years or more when well maintained, which compares very favourably to UPVC. Wooden windows are also more weather resistant than you might think.

For windows in exposed con-ditions, such as coastal areas, or where maintenance access is tricky, such as in high-rise buildings, some WWA mem-bers offer ‘enhanced’ products, including modified or alumini-um-clad wood. These windows have a service life of 80 years or more and typically only need to be maintained every 10 to 30 years.

In fact, WWA windows carry some of the best warranties in the windows sector - service-life warranties are typically 30 years for durability, 10 years for the ironmongery and insulated glass units, and eight years for the paint. What could be more reassuring than that?

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK

WET ROT WOOD HARDENERYou may think that wooden windows look best painted white, but grey is one of the hottest colours in homes at the moment - and this extends to windows.

Even if grey doesn’t suit your interior colour scheme, it can still work well on the exterior - just ensure you use a high-quality exterior wood paint, such as Sandtex, to keep the windows looking good for years to come.

MAKE A GRAND ENTRANCEYou’re not alone if you walk into your home and your spirits wilt as you’re greeted by a jumble of coats, shoes and bags, as the hallway is generally the most neglected area in the home.

A hallway is usually such a small area in a home that you can let loose and try a bold pattern paper or a colour you might be too inhibited to use in a main living area. “Painting walls a bright or darker shade half-way up a wall, dividing with a dado rail if desired, and then using a lighter shade for the upper half of the wall which reaches the ceiling will make a hallway look more spacious,” advises Charlotte Hedeman Gueniau, author of Happy Home. Add impact, she suggests, by removing carpet and painting an entire staircase, and stencil decorative or amusing words on each riser to bring instant character to the space. Be aware this will make stairs noisier though.

Little Greene London’s Wallpapers III collection starts from £49 a roll. Harlequin Folia wallpapers, from ¬£39 a roll, also have interesting designs and extensive colour combinations.

It’s essential to have hard-wearing flooring in a hall - a high traffic area. “Floor tiles come in such a wide range of colours, textures and finishes these days that they’re becoming increasingly popular for halls,” says Claire O’Brien, trend manager for British Ceramic Tile.“Natural stone tiles are an ideal way to create a timeless, opulent-looking hall. For a real statement, combine natural stone with a French pattern design, to emphasise the shade variation of the tiles.“Alternatively, choose a rustic-looking floor tile that can flow throughthe entire downstairs to achieve a sense of bringing the outdoors in. Amuted, organic colour scheme with moulded borders and wood cladding will create a hallway full of warmth and character.” Tiles start from around £22 per square metre.

If members of the family discard their possessions haphazardly as soon as they're through the front door, there's an urgent need for storage that's so easy to use they can't ignore it. "Stopping a trail of belongings littering a hallway can be a thankless task, so the space needs equipping so it's user-friendly," says Clotilde Passalacqua at Ikea. "A cupboard for shoes, a generous amount of hooks or a coat rack, as well as a slim storage unit for hiding away seasonal items such as Wellingtons, hats and gloves as well as sports kit can transform a space."

BAKES WORTH THE WHAITEOnly last year John Whaite was a final year law student who spent his spare time baking. Then he cooked his way onto BBC Two’s Great British Bake Off where his breathtaking Ro-man Colosseum made from gingerbread and deft bread plaiting skills so impressed judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood that they declared him their winner. But despite this resound-ing seal of approval from the TV baking duo, and the fact that he’s just published his first book, John Whaite Bakes, some members of Whaite’s family believe their creations are superior. “My sisters and mum still think they’re better at baking and say, ‘This is what

you should be cooking, lad,” laughs Whaite. Gentle ribbing aside, food has always been central to Whaite’s family life. After his parents divorced, Whaite would bake with his mum and sisters. Baking also provided relief from Whaite’s homesickness while he was studying Italian at Oxford Uni-versity. Often he would bake in his student home to be re-minded of the smells of his family kitchen.“I think it’s important for peo-ple who are away from home to try and find something that connects them to home,” says Whaite, who moved from Manchester to London with his partner earlier this year.

MAKES 18-20 PIECES

Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas mark 4. Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, orange zest, apricots, pistachios and rosemary in a mixing bowl and stir together so that everything is evenly dispersed. Beat the egg with the milk, and then pour this into the bowl. Bring everything together into a dough. I find it easiest to use my hands: grab the ingredients and squeeze them together then, when the mixture forms a rough dough, knead it gently for a minute just to bring it completely together.Roll the dough into a long fat sausage, about 23cm long, then place it on the baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, or until light golden brown. Remove from the oven and slice into 1cm thick pieces. A really sharp serrated knife is best, and do it gently so the biscotti sausage doesn’t crumble. Put these slices back on the baking sheet and back into the oven. Immediately turn the oven down to 130ºC/gas mark 1/2 and bake for a further 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely and you will have a batch of beautifully baked biscotti.

Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 200 ºC/gas mark 6. Melt the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fennel, and allow to soften slowly for about 10 minutes. If they start to brown, reduce the heat. When soft, add the vinegar, salt, pepper and sugar, and caramelise for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Slice the sausages into discs 1cm thick and place in a bowl to one side. Chop the peppers into 2.5cm squares and place these to one side, too. Chop the cheese into 1cm chunks. Unroll the pastry on to the baking sheet and, using a sharp knife, score a line all the way round, 1cm in from the edge. This will act as a border and puff up around the filling. Scatter the caramelised onions and fennel evenly over the pastry, keeping the border clear, then arrange the sausage and pepper on top. Add the chunks of cheese and scatter over the thyme leaves. Glaze the border with the beaten egg - then bake the galette for about 30 minutes, or until the pastry is beautifully golden and puffed, and the sausage is cooked. This is delicious hot or cold.

Preheat the oven to 180 ºC/gas mark 4. Put the polenta, bicarbonate of soda, salt, pepper, chives and cheese into a large mixing bowl. Place the milk, lemonade, honey, eggs and sunflower oil into a large jug and beat together. Add to the dry ingredients and mix gently and quickly until everything is evenly dispersed. Gently fill the cases to barely a couple of millimetres from the top, then bake for 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

Tip: The secret is to use lemonade in these buns. Not only does it give a sweet-sharp flavour lift, but the bubbles work alongside the bicarbonate of soda to ensure the buns are wonderfully light and tender.

We picked an utterly hideous evening to try out the Cottonwood Boutique hotel’s restaurant. With rain rattling down at full speed you’d be forgiven for thinking it was October and certainly not the glo-rious May evening we had hoped for. All was not lost however, as the Cottonwood Boutique Hotel provided welcome solace from the weather outside, with a warm welcome and a comfortable dining room lavishly decorated in pinks and golds, a striking contemporary twist on a classic theme. Talking of themes, our evening was accompanied by jazz tunes from the live band playing in the bar, now normally I’m not a fan because such acts are rarely much good. This one however, was out-standing, performing some well known tunes as a perfect accompaniment to our dining pitched just at the right level.

Before I start rambling about our food I must first pause to applaud our host. We were looked after by a young gentleman called Valdis, who was perfectly attentive, knowledgeable and just chatty enough to make us feel at home without feeling like we had a third guest at the table. The host is often an undervalued part of the dining experience but our meal showed how good it can be when you get it right. On arrival we selected a delightfully fruit-ful rosé which was partnered with a se-

We wanted to know what

all the fuss was out...

lection of the freshest breads I’ve had in quite some time, dipping oil and balsamic syrup were devoured as we selected from the refreshing menu.

We chose from the a la carte menu which offers some fantastic options from seared scallops to Thai style Sea Bass. I started with the cod cakes which were delightfully fluffy and fresh. I was most impressed with the chilli syrup accom-paniment which was a nice alternative to the usual sweet chilli sauce you may get which is frankly lazy. Nothing lazy here, the syrup was a perfect partner to the cod cakes along with some lime mayon-naise and it only served to leave me want-ing more. My guest for the evening went for the Ballotine of chicken and oyster mushrooms wrapped in Parma ham with herb oil, which was consumed with equal gusto.

On to the mains and my guest opted for the Roast fillet of pork marinated with smoked paprika with lemon chutney, dauphinoise potato and seasonal veg-etables which I have to say I was slightly jealous of on sight but not to worry, my Chargrilled 21 day aged west country sir-loin steak, hand cut chips and portabello mushrooms in a béarnaise sauce soon put my doubts at ease. If I’m being super-picky I would have preferred the steak a

little rarer than it was presented but it was so delicious I didn’t want to change it, despite that being offered by our waiter. The fresh béarnaise sauce was incred-ible and the hand cut chips satisfyingly chunky and perfectly fluffy inside their crisp coats.

Desert time soon came and after a lovely chat with Valdis I went for the Carpaccio of pineapple with sweet chilli syrup and bucks fizz sorbet, not some-thing I’ve ever even seen before let alone tried so I simply had to go for it. I’m glad I did, what a refreshing end to the meal with the Buck’s Fizz sorbet being a par-ticular favourite. My guest went for the somewhat heavier but equally delicious Sticky toffee pudding with butterscotch sauce and vanilla bean ice cream. I’ll be honest, I had half of the ice cream as I just couldn’t keep my spoon out of it, for-tunately my guest was accommodating of my greediness which I can only blame on the tasty food provided by the Cotton-wood Boutique.

The only change I would make if I were in charge would be to move the restau-rant to the front of the building to enable diners to soak up the sea view a bit more, otherwise it was near perfect.

In short, tasty food, amazing service, on the seafront, what more can you ask for?

We are jumping into June with our refreshing cold melon, vodka and mint soup recipe, perfect for summer afternoons and evenings. This recipe also works really well if you freeze the mixture, it makes a lovely sorbet. Ideal whilst enjoying Royal Ascot, perhaps, from the 18th - 22nd June. Royal Ascot is one of Europe’s most famous race meetings dating back to 1711. Over 300,000 people make the annual visit to Berkshire for Royal Ascot week, making it Europe’s best-attended race meeting.

In the next issue we will be suggesting a fun twist with Strawberries for Wimbledon week starting on the 24th June.

CURLY-WURLY WONDER

TRIED & TESTED

Fresh skin blighted by a breakout? Our testers reveal three on-the-spot treatments:

Dr Nick Lowe Spot Gel 15ml, £9.49

This product has an instant cool-ing effect with no immediate sting. Afterwards my skin feels soft and slightly tight but the solution peels off so it’s best used overnight.

Sanctuary Deep Cleanse Blemish Serum 15ml, £10

A nice smell and no sting when I applied to my blemishes. Applied as instructed, my angry red spots were visibly reduced after a few days, and the smaller pimples cleared up completely.

Freshskin by Elemis Skin Clear Treatment Gel 15ml, £12

This anti-blemish gel has a citrus zingy scent and goes on easily on the affected area without any stickiness or residue. Unlike other spot treatments, it doesn’t dry out the skin or leave any marks and works a treat.4/5

It's the age-old hair conundrum. Women blessed with a head full of natural, tumbling curls want straight tresses, while those graced with poker-straight locks long for a bouncier bonce. While curls may look amazing, those born with them often complain they're a nightmare to look after. But the tables are turning. With the raft of high-tech styling products and tools available, it's becoming easier to achieve curls that are controllable, defined and the envy of all your flat-haired friends. Just ask Harry Styles. There are even whole ranges dedicated to the pursuit of the perfect curl: Aveda's Be Curly, Catwalk by TIGI's Curlesque and Bumble & Bumble's Curl Conscious to name but a few. And with a bit of know-how and the right products, limp locks can be transformed into flowing waves, too. So with the cold weather on its way out, put a spring in your step - and your hair.

CONTROL Frizz is one of the biggest woes of the curly brigade. If you have a head of natural kinks, kick your curls into shape with a product that prevents an unruly finish. “Curly hair can be devilish: frizzy, dry and wild,” says Nick Irwin, global creative director at TIGI. “It’s important to use specialist products to ensure curly hair has moisture, with ingredients to smooth, add control, and tame un-ruly locks.” Gone are the days of crispy mousses; now they can create texture and volume for curls, while a cream will define and separate. The ideal scenario is to de-frizz but not remove volume. “When styling curly hair do not over-dry,” Irwin warns. “The best option is to use a diffuser on the coolest setting or to allow the hair to dry naturally. Break curls with the fingers to create shape and avoid brushing or combing the curls. Often just shaking the hair will create the best shape.”

EXAGGERATE If your waves are on the limp side, give them a bouncy boost. Even if you have perfectly coiffed curls at the start of the day, they can fall flat by the time you’ve nipped out for a lunchtime sandwich. Ramp up your styling routine. Perfect curls don’t happen by themselves but if you put in extra time and effort the pay-off will be worth it with a style that holds for days. “Start by applying a curl-ing cream to the hair from roots to ends, separating hair and twisting around your finger to define into individual curls,” advises David Fletcher, Unite stylist. “Tip your head upside down and dry with a diffuser on low heat and low speed to stop it from going frizzy. When the hair is about 50% dry, spray a liberal amount of texturising spray to really enhance the curl.” Once your hair is fully dry, shake it into natural curls and finish with a spray wax to add extra texture and hold.

Curly hair can be devilish: frizzy, dry and wild

CREATE We aren’t all blessed with a mop of tumbling curls but waves aren’t out of reach for the super-straights. If you don’t have natural body, use a curl-constructing product combined with heated appliances to create big impact curls. “For hair that’s naturally very straight or doesn’t hold a curl very well, you need to build in a really good foundation,” explains celebrity hairdresser Mark Hill. “Do this by applying a mousse through towel-dried hair and blow drying your hair using a large round brush, rotating it through the sections to create volume and movement. If you find it difficult to wave, try some jumbo heated roll-ers to give that extra kick of movement.” Forget curling tongs that leave kinks in your hair and opt for a clamp-free wand if you want looser, beachy waves. Once you unwind the hair, roll back towards the roots and hold in place with a pin curl clip leaving the curl to cool. You’ll find your new wavy do lasts much longer.

CURL MAINTENANCE Avoid the dreaded flop or frizz with these top tips from Aveda Institute’s creative director, Michael Lendon:

• There is nothing worse than dried out, frizzy curls. Curls need moisture so make sure you are treating your tresses to a weekly hydrat-ing injection with an intensive conditioner.

• Invest in a diffuser - it will make a huge different to your curls as it is designed to dispense heat evenly to help gently encour-age your natural wave.

• Rinsing your hair with cool water after cleansing and conditioning will de-frizz and help to tame your curls when blow-drying.

• If you’re twist drying at home, gently shake out your hair for an effortless finish.

• Use light, weightless products so as not to weigh down your curls.

SMART AGE SOLUTIONSWrinkles, altered pigmentation, loss of skin tone... we all asso-ciate these changes with aging skin. Age-related skin changes are the result of genetically-programmed changes (intrin-sic factors) and environmental wear-and-tear on the skin (ex-trinsic factors). While both in-fluence the skin’s structure and function, extrinsic factors cause more pronounced changes. Der-malogica Age Smart seeks to significantly reduce this. Most products positioned as “anti-ag-ing” products promise to mini-mize, and even erase, the mani-festations of skin aging, such as wrinkles. There are products that can help minimize the ap-pearance of wrinkles, but no wrinkle is completely curable. A better approach would be to treat skin aging at the source by addressing the actual biochemi-cal reactions that trigger these changes in skin before they start. Dermalogica has intro-duced AGE Smart, which works by impacting the main biochem-ical reactions that manifest the signs of skin aging: the forma-tion of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS – also known as free radi-cals), the generation of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) and the development of Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs).

We’re supposed to be good at queuing in this country. The truth is some people are rubbish at it. There is an accepted distance that you have to keep behind someone at an ATM when you’re waiting to use it. That’s according to the comedian Jerry Seinfeld. That distance is about five feet. Jerry points out that it’s the same distance you keep when you’re waiting to use a urinal and the reason is the same, people get nervous when they take their valuables out in public. But there are people who leave a gap at least three times bigger than the accepted ATM/urinal distance when they’re queuing at a counter!

I checked into a hotel this week. There was someone at the counter checking in and one other person waiting, but she was at least FIFTEEN feet away from the counter. I had to ask her if she was actually in a queue or just stood in the middle of the hotel reception and happened to be facing the counter. She looked at me as if it should be obvious that she was queuing. I stood behind her but the whole time had what could only be described as an anxiety attack. I felt as if someone was going to walk in off the street at the same time as the person at the counter got checked-in. If they timed it right, someone is going to walk right up to the counter and jump this ‘queue’!

When it eventually was her turn and she moved forward, I followed right behind her for ten feet then plonked my case down loudly, five feet behind her. She gave me that over her shoulder double-take look and I smiled back. Maybe I was just grumpy because I was tired and hungry. I’d just finished a four hour shift on the radio, had driven nearly a hundred miles to get there, hadn’t eaten since breakfast and it was now half past eight at night. When I got to my room, I called the number on the room service menu, there was no answer. After another couple of calls, the receptionist answered. I told him I wanted to order room service. After a loud sigh I was told that I was being put through to the restaurant. I was too tired to ask why the RESTAURANT number wasn’t on the room service menu.

I told the lady that answered that I wanted to order fish and chips. Another sigh, then “hang on”. When she came back on the phone she said, “The Chef says he’s too busy”. I said, “Busy doing what? I’m not asking him to bring the food up to my room personally! All he has to do is cook it! Isn’t that what he’s supposed to be doing down there anyway?” She said, “Hang on” and she was gone again. A couple of minutes later she was back, “He says he can make you a sandwich”. I said, “I don’t want a sandwich, I want fish and chips!” “Sorry” she said. I said, “If I come down to the restaurant, can I order fish and chips?” She said, “Yes, of course”. I said, “So if he’s going to have to make fish and chips for me anyway, what difference does it make where I order it from?” She said, “Look it’s not up to me.” I said, “No it’s not, the fact that in my room there is a menu with pictures of food on it, a prices list and a number to call SUGGESTS it’s up to ME!” That was followed by silence, so I hung up. I was now, very tired and very emotional, I decided to go out and get a take-away. I walked out onto the street and was really pleased to see a fish and chip shop, right NEXT DOOR to the hotel!

I walked in, there was one person being served at the counter, I stood behind them, and then a bloke ten feet behind me shouted, “Hey, there’s a queue you know!”

Citroen’s DS range has been created to give owners an image boost, offering smarter styling, upgraded interior and more equipment. It has certainly worked, for DS models are proving very popular, with fast-rising sales.

My recent test model was a DS4, based on the C4 hatchback, and in top-range D Sport trim is priced at £23,240 which is steep compared with some class rivals, though you do get a lot of standard kit for the money, writes NICK FLETCHER. From the outside, the DS4 catches attention. Though a four-door hatchback, it has coupe styling with the rear door handles ‘hidden’ in the corners of the windows rather than on the door panels. With a big distinctly noticeable double-chevron Citroen badge incorporated in the bonnet design, wide grille, fog lamps and twin exhausts, the DS4 has a potent presence.

In the cabin, this top version has leather upholstery, heated seats, and a wealth of equipment which includes cruise control, climate control, alloy wheels, radio/CD/MP3/iPod unit, front, side and curtain airbags , traction and stability controls and also has a five-star NCAP crash safety rating. The facia materials are high quality soft-touch, and help create a premium ambiance. Seating is extremely comfortable, and there is plenty of room for front occupants. Driving position, slightly raised, is excellent and while most of the switchgear is user-friendly, having a dozen buttons on the steering wheel looks cluttered and can be confusing. Boot space is good and easy-fold seats boost the load area. On the road, the DS4 Sport has a sharp, assured feel to it, with the 2.0 litre 160 hp diesel engine giving crisp acceleration and a 0-60 mph time of

9.3 seconds. Top speed is 132mph and the fuel economy figure is very respectable at 55.4 mpg. Suspension set-up is firmer than on the standard C4, but ride comfort is still very good.

The DS4 is available in three trim levels – D Sign, D Style and D Sport. D Sign cars include remote locking, electric front windows, LED running lights, air-conditioning and cornering fog lamps. D Style models add features such as automatic lights and wipers, climate control, parking sensors and Bluetooth, while D Sport cars have leather upholstery and a number of detail features.

For many potential buyers, best-value will lie with the entry and mid-range variants, which are all very well equipped. The D Sport flagship test model is more suited for the true Citroen enthusiasts.

CITROEN DS4 ROAD TEST

No need to rush to the showrooms - you can’t buy this stunning Aston Martin CC100 Speedster! But while it is just a concept model, Aston Martin says the design gives a hint of the shape of future Aston Martin models. The 6.0-litre V12-powered two-seater concept car was designed and constructed in less than six months at Aston Martin’s global headquarters in Gaydon headed by Design Director Marek Reichman working alongside the brand’s Chief Exterior Designer Miles Nurnberger. Miles explained: “The idea of an iconic speedster concept that nods to the Le Mans − and Nürburgring – winning cars of 1959 soon came, and we have had complete freedom to shape this car.” Measuring almost four and a half metres nose to tail, and more than two metres wide the Speedster Concept features a body and interior crafted from carbon fibre, the CC100 utilises the latest generation AM11 naturally aspirated V12 gasoline engine mated to a six-speed hydraulically actuated automated sequential manual transmission. Controlled via steering column-mounted paddle shifts the lightweight box delivers truly sporting changes perfectly suited to the Speedster’s track-focused nature.” The drivetrain will power the CC100 from 0-60 mph in around four seconds.

We are beginning to see a trend in interior fashions from across the pond, anything from New York penthouse to Hollywood glamour. With rich tones, sophisticated fabrics and statement pieces of furni-ture, who would have thought that the chic modern apart-ment could become a unique family home. The furnishing fabrics call to mind the glam-our of Hollywood in the 1930’s - just right if you’re having a Great Gatsby moment!In the living room a pale pal-ette provides a tranquil set-ting, but incorporating the decoration with bold state-ment pieces of furniture can throw people’s expectations. Contrasting furniture and glamorous mirrors add that extra bit of drama.

Kitchens are becoming an ex-tension of both the living and dining areas, with compact designs and concealed kitchen appliances. Marble surrounds, panelled doors and crystal-lized glass adds a luxe but practical touch. The master bedroom is a co-coon of functionality, with ordinary décor accessories. However it’s the wall paint, carpets and the abundance of cushions and covers that add more interest to the modern penthouse apartment interior, creating eclectic charm.For expert help with your new home make over, visit Tower Retail Park home to Homebase, Topps Tiles, Fabric Warehouse, Sharps, Chorley-Burdett Furni-ture, The Bed Store, and Carpet Barn.

23RD JUNEDIVERSE ABILITIES IT’S A KNOCK OUT

Get a team together and join the fun in this action packed adventure race! As seen on TV, the ‘It’s A Knock Out’ competition is in aid of the Dorset based disability charity, Diverse Abilities Plus, and takes place on 23 June at Redlands Community Sports Hub in Weymouth. Sponsored by Weymouth’s Basepoint Centre, the event

will be a display of novelty objects, gunge and all round merriment replicating the BBC TV show shown during the 1960s to 1980s. The series of games aims to raise valuable funds and awareness for the charity, while offering a fun team building exercise. Participants will compete through mayhem and props in a variety of different activities in a bid to be crowned victorious. By joining the fun, participants will be actively supporting

the work of the local charity, and will have a lot of fun in doing so! Take part in this fun filled event and raise money for Diverse Abilities Plus, the charity that supports adults and children in Dorset living with physical and learning disabilities. The games will be great fun, and very chaotic! It’s not to be missed!
