JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong><br />
Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful<br />
festive break. After a much needed rest, we are<br />
back, refreshed, and perhaps like many of you,<br />
have eaten way too many mince pies!<br />
experts and services, starting on page 19.<br />
I’d also like to take the time to announce my own<br />
engagement to my new fiancé Sam Hunt, he has<br />
made me a very happy lady indeed!<br />
I am now on my normal “Post-Christmas Health<br />
Kick,” however, this year I am doing it slightly<br />
differently. A few months back I discovered LRG<br />
Fitness, instead of going to the gym, I have been<br />
working out with LRG’s weekly online videos at<br />
home. See pages 42 and 43 to see how you and<br />
your family can get involved.<br />
This month we feature the lovely Olly Murs who<br />
has just been announced to play this year’s<br />
Newmarket Races, read all about it from pages<br />
37 to 40.<br />
Don’t forget you can listen to our other celebrity<br />
interviews, via our YouTube channel at<br />
www.youtube.com/bouncemagazineuk.<br />
If you were lucky enough to be asked a very<br />
special question this year, congratulations! We<br />
have just what you need in our wedding<br />
special, featuring some of the areas top<br />
Also in this edition, we recap our top three reviews<br />
of 2016, see what they are in our Food &<br />
Drink section. We also have our usual recipes<br />
including a healthy smoothie, a low calorie cocktail<br />
and a French dish from Franck Pontais.<br />
We welcome any new ideas for the New Year so if<br />
you have any suggestions we would love to hear<br />
from you.<br />
If you would like information regarding<br />
advertising, I would be happy to speak to you<br />

Indian cooking...<br />
BY AWARD WINNING<br />
CHEF ABDUS SHAHID<br />
Prep Time<br />
30 mins<br />
Cooking Time:<br />
15 mins<br />
Serves 4<br />
USE OIL SPARINGLY...<br />
Just a splash is needed. Using non-stick cookware can<br />
help you to limit the use of oil when cooking curries.<br />
CUT DOWN ON FAT...<br />
If trying to cut down the fat content of your meal,<br />
change the menu and cook Indian dishes and breads<br />
that require no frying.<br />
TRY TANDOORI...<br />
Grill, boil, steam and bake instead of frying where<br />
possible. Tandoori grilling is the best form of cooking<br />
where minimal or no oil is used and the intense heat<br />
cooks the food quickly, sealing in all the nutrients.<br />
TRY OUR CHICKEN TANDOORI...<br />
This low-fat curried chicken is packed full of flavour.<br />
It’s quick to cook and the marinade does all the work.<br />
Method<br />
1. Mix the lemon juice with the paprika and red onions<br />
in a large shallow dish. Slash each chicken thigh three<br />
times, then turn them in the juice and set aside for<br />
10 mins.<br />
Ingredients<br />
• Juice of 2 lemons<br />
• 4 tsp paprika<br />
• 2 red onions, finely chopped<br />
• 16 skinless chicken thighs<br />
• Vegetable oil, for brushing<br />
The Marinade<br />
• 300ml Greek yogurt<br />
• large piece ginger, grated<br />
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed<br />
• ¾ tsp garam masala<br />
• ¾ tsp ground cumin<br />
• ½ tsp chilli powder<br />
• ¼ tsp turmeric<br />
2. Mix all of the marinade ingredients together and<br />
pour over the chicken. Give everything a good mix,<br />
then cover and chill for at least 1 hr. This can be done<br />
up to a day in advance.<br />
3. Heat the grill. Lift the chicken pieces onto a rack<br />
over a baking tray. Brush over a little oil and grill<br />
for 8 mins on each side or until lightly charred and<br />
completely cooked through.<br />

Free cakes for kids Thetford, can you help?...<br />
Free Cakes for Kids is a community service to<br />
families who find it difficult to provide a birthday<br />
cake for their child.<br />
A birthday cake is baked by local volunteers with the<br />
child’s favourite theme (where possible). The cake<br />
is then delivered to the family. This service covers<br />
Thetford, Bury st Edmunds and the area immediately<br />
surrounding, although is at the group’s discretion<br />
where they will and won’t cover so get<br />
in touch if unsure. FCFK has over 80<br />
organisations running though the UK<br />
with 1000’s of cakes being delivered<br />
every year.<br />
Who is eligible? Any child who would<br />
not otherwise receive a birthday<br />
cake is eligible. This may be due to<br />
financial reasons, but could also be<br />
due to circumstances (e.g. young<br />
carers, illness etc.). Families can refer<br />
themselves to receive a cake, however<br />
we do prefer to work direct family organizations such<br />
as Home start or other agencies.<br />
How can I help? There are lots of way to help. By<br />
becoming a volunteer baker you can help us achieve<br />
our goal of putting a smile on as many children’s<br />
(and parents) faces as possible. You don’t need to be<br />
an expert baker just have the basic knowledge and<br />
want to help. Becoming a volunteer baker is flexible;<br />
you can fit it round your commitments and bake<br />
when you have the time. There is no pressure to bake.<br />
For other ways to help please ask.<br />
What will the cake be like and how will it be<br />
delivered? All our cakes are different, we like to<br />
personalise them based on the child’s interests.<br />
The cake will be delivered by a local<br />
volunteer direct to the family or to the<br />
organisation supporting the family.<br />
Why do we do it? We do it because<br />
we care. There are a lot of families out<br />
there that are currently in a situation<br />
that prevents them from providing a<br />
Birthday cake for their child.<br />
We currently have 21 fantastic bakers<br />
who have made more than 50 cakes<br />
over the past 2 years. The cakes come<br />
in all different shapes and sizes from<br />
football shirts, Frozen & Batman to a<br />
pretty pink cake covered in butterflies, Ironman &<br />
Harry Potter to just name a few.<br />
FCFK do not receive any funding however donations<br />
are greatly received to help our bakers deliver such<br />
wonderful gifts.<br />

I’m not old i’m<br />
retro<br />
Check out my very<br />
own fashion <strong>web</strong>site<br />
imnotoldimretro.co.uk<br />
Well hello there! I’m back with my monthly column… Ok so firstly a<br />
reminder about me. I’m Zena (Zee for short) I’m 42, a mother and a<br />
grandmother.<br />
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!<br />
As is customary I shall<br />
be sharing with you my<br />
plans for 20<strong>17</strong>.<br />
Whilst some people<br />
like to have a list of<br />
resolutions, I’ve got a ‘TO<br />
DO’ list!<br />
Number one on my list<br />
is to add to my tattoo<br />
collection and get my<br />
arm finished.<br />
I love the fact my generation are<br />
younger and braver than ever before<br />
and I’m looking forward to seeing<br />
all the tattooed grandparents as<br />
we get older, not to mention the<br />
grandmothers with winged<br />
eyeliner!<br />
I’ve said before I’m a ‘girls’<br />
girl, however, as far as the<br />
January sales are concerned<br />
its every woman for herself!<br />
Here are my tips for getting<br />
the best out of the sales...<br />
Creating a list that you can<br />
refer to on the day will help keep you<br />
focused on the task in hand.<br />
Concentrate on<br />
styles that wont need<br />
replacing as well as<br />
classic pieces that<br />
won’t date. Above all<br />
make sure you invest<br />
in quality fabrics that<br />
12
JANUARY JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong> | 20<strong>17</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #51 | #51 FASHION<br />
FASHION<br />
will stand the test of time.<br />
Beautifully cut dresses, trousers,<br />
blouses and jackets can be cleverly<br />
layered to take you from winter to<br />
spring.<br />
If sticking solely to the classics feels a<br />
little too sensible, it’s a good idea to<br />
update existing outfits for the trends<br />
that you like from the new season.<br />
This spring/summer, denim comes in all<br />
shapes and forms and it won’t be going<br />
away any time soon.<br />
The best strategy is to<br />
think about the timeless<br />
investment pieces that you<br />
can wear in lots of different<br />
ways.<br />
Mules are having a ‘moment’<br />
that will continue well into<br />
the New Year.<br />
In general I try to stick to classics: in<br />
the winter I always buy a coat, some<br />
knitwear and some boots and in the<br />
summer I opt for light dresses and<br />
statement sandals.<br />
Finally, if someone tells you that you<br />
don’t need that extra pair of shoes,<br />
ignore of them, you don’t need that<br />
kind of negativity in your life, but a<br />
new pair of shoes can go a long way to<br />
boosting your own self confidence.<br />
Stay stylish - Love Zee x<br />

NEW YEAR,<br />
NEW ME?<br />
AUBURN BOUTIQUE<br />
“New Year, New Me?” – Every Woman, EVER<br />
This is the lie we undoubtedly tell<br />
ourselves every year.<br />
the outfit is completed when paired with our ‘Cara’<br />
suede black boot. This creates an all round Boho<br />
feel but its clear that the key piece is our Camel<br />
Waistcoat.<br />
Equally you can take the Waistcoat and create<br />
a whole new dynamic and style. Just by adding<br />
different prints, a few layers and a contrasting Skinny<br />
Jean. Our Waistcoat can be worn as a key layering<br />
piece in the autumn/winter months, or a lightweight<br />
coat alternative in the spring/summer months. Its<br />
an Incredibly versatile piece that can make or break<br />
your outfit.<br />
And whilst many women stick to it and really do<br />
make difference, there is a vast majority; of which I<br />
am completely and un-regretably one, that is all talk<br />
no action.<br />
So instead of crying over those unshaven pounds,<br />
why not save a few and make a feasible resolution<br />
this year. Instead of spending hundreds of pounds<br />
on a gym membership that you will frantically use<br />
for two weeks after Christmas and then promptly<br />
forget you ever owned. Use that money to buy a<br />
few key pieces this January that can help build your<br />
wardrobe and enhance the outfits you already own<br />
as well as the ones that catch your eye accidently<br />
on that weekly “window shopping” session. So,<br />
Instead of picking holes in your body this January;<br />
embrace it, learn how to dress it, and style it.<br />
“New Year, New Wardrobe Staple Pieces!!” –<br />
Elle, Auburn Boutique<br />
NATURALLY BOHO:<br />
Now don’t get me wrong, I know that Boho Style<br />
isn’t for everyone. However, the patterns, styles<br />
and cuts are extremely versatile for any season<br />
depending on which colours you buy, your garment<br />
can last a lifetime in outfit years. Our new ‘Byoung’<br />
Camel Waistcoat is the perfect example of how one<br />
piece of clothing can be worn in a variety of ways.<br />
With a “Naturally Boho” feel the waistcoat easily<br />
compliments our ‘Byoung’ paisley print dress and<br />
Camel Byoung Waistcoat £65, Paisley<br />
Byoung Dress £75, Ribbed Byoung<br />
Rollneck £35, Circle of Trust Jeans £85,<br />
Longline Garcia Shirt £55, Suede Cara<br />
Shoe Boot £110<br />
THESE BOOTS ARE MADE FOR<br />
WALKING:<br />
If you purchase only one key piece this January,<br />
make it a statement shoe. Of all our garments I<br />
consider footwear to be the most important; an<br />
entire outfit can be complimented or tarnished<br />
by whatever shoes you chose to wear. So why not<br />
reverse the process and build your outfits around a<br />
good shoe? Having a quirky, unique shoe boot like<br />
our ‘Cara’ Atlantic Boot can help to form the basis of<br />
a wonderful wardrobe. Not only do you have the<br />
Midnight Blue, Forest Green and Snake effect Black<br />
to pick colours for outfits from, you have all the<br />
14
JANUARY JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong> | 20<strong>17</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #51 | #51 FASHION<br />
FASHION<br />
colours that compliment them to chose from as<br />
well. The snakeskin effect adds an extra oomph of<br />
sass, but also breaks the shoe down and makes it<br />
look less blocked and heavy. This opens the doors<br />
to endless possibilities in terms of adding new<br />
Suede Cara Shoe Boot £130, Faux Fur<br />
Garcia Skirt £69, Wool Garcia Poncho<br />
£55, Circle of Trust Top £39, Garcia<br />
Distressed Bomber £75, Navy Leather<br />
Gloves £25<br />
patterns and embellishments into the mix to<br />
support the “Texture Clashing” trend we talked<br />
about in our last article. We have portrayed this by<br />
pairing our boots with our Grey ‘Garcia’ Bomber<br />
with a distressed feel that has been enhanced by<br />
sequins and beading. And for a more elegant look<br />
we have incorporated, our chic Navy Leather Gloves<br />
and our ‘Garcia’ Animal print fur effect Midi Skirt<br />
perfect for that day to night look.<br />
With the right shoes the possibilities are endless, so<br />
remember quality over quantity. Don’t be afraid to<br />
add a splash of colour or pattern.<br />
With a positive attitude you will have the perfect<br />
wardrobe that is to die for and you might actually<br />
keep your New Years resolution for 20<strong>17</strong>! Look<br />
good, feel great.<br />

TIPS & ADVICE THIS SEASON<br />
ACCESSORIES<br />
20<strong>17</strong><br />
Sometimes it’s the small pieces and accessories<br />
that really up your style game. What you’ll often<br />
find however, is that no matter the size, the price<br />
tag stays the same (high).<br />
With New Year sales in full swing this is a great<br />
opportunity to pick up those items you’ve been<br />
missing.<br />
I’ve collected some ideas to get you started. Be<br />
sure to check in store and online as the beauty<br />
of an accessory is that you don’t have to worry<br />
about seeing something perfect only to then<br />
discover XXXL is the only size left in the sale…<br />
get going!<br />
BY DANIEL FRANCIS<br />
CARD HOLDERS<br />
The day of the wallet is dead and has been for<br />
quite some time. A card holder forces you to only<br />
take out the necessary plastic (so leave those<br />
16
JANUARY JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong> | 20<strong>17</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #51 | #51 FASHION<br />
FASHION<br />
points cards at home, the bar does not<br />
accept). Ted Baker has a great selection<br />
that range from simple and elegant to more<br />
patterned stand out holders.<br />
GLOVES<br />
An essential item for the colder time of year<br />
and something you’re likely to wear every<br />
day so it’s important you invest in a decent<br />
pair. Leather gloves are the way to go if you<br />
want classic, durable and stylish. However,<br />
the more tech savvy amongst us will want<br />
to get their hands on a pair of touchscreen<br />
compatible gloves to avoid that awkward<br />
moment when you can’t unlock and scan<br />
your Starbucks card when shooting for that<br />
free extra pump of syrup! Muji offer up a<br />
pair for under £20.00<br />
UNDERWEAR<br />
Designer Tom Ford suggests replacing your<br />
underwear every six months. So if you can,<br />
great. If not, then just invest in decent picks<br />
to ensure they last without losing their<br />
shape or colour. You can pick up Calvin<br />
Klein packs from Topman or ASOS online.<br />
DOCUMENT HOLDER<br />
No one wants to that guy who shows up<br />
to a meeting, trying to impress, handing<br />
out folded or creased documents. Fear not for<br />
document holders are in full swing at the moment<br />
with most stores and brands offering a variety of<br />
different options. These holders are the perfect<br />
size and lightweight so there are no excuses not<br />
to pick one up.<br />

“When you own a wedding venue, and the day finally comes to actually get<br />
married yourselves, you begin to feel the pressure build!”<br />
We hear from Serena Saunders, Managing Director of Sheene Mill.<br />
SheeneMill<br />
The Most Amazing Day of our Lives!...<br />
‘Jordan and I had been together for 9 years when he popped<br />
the question… It was in a moment of complete surprise, when<br />
I was feeling anything but glamorous! Whilst we had been<br />
together for a long time, we had a business to run together and<br />
always had bigger, more important things to focus on within<br />
the business – The concept of even planning a wedding for<br />
‘myself’, just felt like something I would never have the time to<br />
do!! However, as every ‘bride to be’ does, I found my time and<br />
started to begin the planning process!...<br />
The first thing we needed to confirm was the venue!... Holding<br />
our wedding at the Sheene Mill was a ‘no brainer’! Whilst I<br />
admit, I was a little worried about the potential added pressure<br />
and the concept of being ‘at work’ at first, I also recognise how<br />
beautiful our venue is and could think of no place better for us<br />
both to get married!<br />
The Sheene Mill is so much more than just a venue to us – it is,<br />
quite literally our home! I worked at the Sheene Mill from the<br />
age of 11, when my parents owned the business, to then come<br />
back 10 years after they left to own the business together with<br />
my partner, Jordan. The Sheene Mill has been the home to so<br />
many of my happy memories, from my childhood swims in the<br />
river, to the recent years… My Mum and her now husband got<br />
married at Sheene Mill, my Dad and his Fiancee got engaged<br />
here!<br />
Getting married at our own venue also meant I had complete<br />
trust in my staff and that they would execute everything the<br />
way they know we’d want it to be done. It also gave us the<br />
flexibility to really go ‘to town’ and actually enjoy the venue<br />
from the other side for once! Selecting the suppliers was<br />

perhaps slightly easier for us than<br />
most, we see a lot of different<br />
wedding suppliers on a regular<br />
basis. After what felt like years, the<br />
day finally came!...<br />
Walking into the Sheene Mill<br />
everything suddenly became very<br />
real. The place looked absolutely<br />
beautiful, and for a moment I felt so<br />
proud, proud of my amazing staff<br />
and of our lovely venue.<br />
After being ‘officially’ married, the<br />
fun could properly begin and I was<br />
able to try and ‘soak in’ everything<br />
around me! The pavilion looked<br />
stunning, with beautiful deep red,<br />
cream and soft peach flowers<br />
draping softly from the railings and<br />
arching over where Jordan and I<br />
had said our vows.<br />
Big flower displays lined our<br />
walkway and rose petals to match<br />
lined the cream carpet I’d walked<br />
down, matching the cream bows on<br />
the chairs and little hearts of rose<br />
petal confetti on each seat.<br />
As the drinks circulated, our<br />
magician started to make his way<br />
around our guests, the string<br />
quartet began to play and the<br />
divine canapés were in full flow! I<br />
could hear laughter, beautiful music,<br />
and smell beautiful food...<br />
I felt happy and relaxed, knowing<br />
everything was just as I had<br />
imagined. With the canapés starting<br />
our appetites off, it was soon<br />
time to make our way through for<br />
our favourite 8 course, exquisite<br />
wedding breakfast menu!!<br />
As I walked into our dining room,<br />
I was literally blown away!... There was a beautiful, floor to ceiling<br />
blossom tree as soon as we walked in, with stunning crystals,<br />
candles and our guests names hanging from it, there was a<br />
guitarist sat underneath it, playing our favourite songs… And the<br />
table set up looked, well, absolutely breath-taking! The speeches<br />
too were certainly interesting!<br />
As the day progressed feeling fat and full, Jordan and I<br />
disappeared for a few pictures, whilst our evening guests began<br />
to arrive… They were greeted to Moet Ice, served with fresh<br />
strawberries and a range of savoury and dessert canapés. We<br />
danced, we laughed, we ate (some more!) and we partied hard!…<br />
When we left at 5am, my feet were so sore I could barely even<br />
walk across the road to our home! We can’t thank our staff and<br />
suppliers enough for all their efforts and for making our wedding<br />
day the most AMAZING day of our lives!’<br />

You’re engaged! What to do now!<br />
BY CATHERINE STARLING-GUNFIELD<br />
So, the countdown<br />
begins towards your<br />
very special day,<br />
marrying the partner<br />
you love and solidifying<br />
your relationship<br />
together...<br />
Many have dreamed of their<br />
wedding day since they were<br />
little, some may have only started<br />
thinking about it once they have<br />
meet that special person, either<br />
way your wedding day will be at the<br />
forefront of your plans and day to<br />
day decision making for<br />
the foreseeable.<br />
So, what do you do now?<br />
Firstly, think about how long you want your engagement to be?<br />
The average engagement is around 18 months nowadays.<br />
Then chat with your partner and family about what your ideal<br />
day looks like.<br />
Then consider the following;<br />
• Season/Time of year<br />
• Location – immediate area/local, in the UK, or abroad<br />
• Size - Intimate or larger affair<br />
• What type of ceremony – religious, civil or humanist<br />
• Your main priorities<br />
• Budget<br />
• Who you would like to help you plan<br />
• Your wedding party, Bridesmaids, Best man, Ushers etc<br />
• Will you need a hired wedding planner or coordinator on the<br />
day<br />
• Any particular dates that are ideal or special too you<br />
• Theme, colour scheme, style and inspirations<br />

JANUARY JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong> | 20<strong>17</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #51 | #51 WEDDING<br />
Once you are ready start looking<br />
at venues and have a date in mind,<br />
try attending local wedding fairs<br />
and open days to gauge the type<br />
of venues available, local suppliers<br />
and costs.<br />
Consider a subscription to a few<br />
wedding magazines, our favourites<br />
are You & Your Wedding Magazine<br />
and Wedding Ideas.<br />
Create a scrap book and a folder<br />
or file to collect literature and<br />
magazine clippings.<br />
Create a Pinterest board (remember<br />
to keep it ‘secret’) and pin any<br />
wedding ideas that inspire you.<br />
Remember not to get carried away<br />
with Pinterest, be realistic as many<br />
of the images are highly styled and<br />
extremely lavish and it may not<br />
be possible to replicate exactly,<br />
especially if you are on a budget.<br />
Try to enjoy every minute, keep<br />
organised using lists, set up a<br />
wedding only email account and<br />
involve those close to you.<br />
Their second opinion and advice<br />
could be very useful.<br />
Happy Planning...<br />

The heads up<br />
on hats<br />
As the mother of the bride, or groom, you really want to make<br />
an impression on one of the proudest days of your life.<br />
Milliner Mary-Anne<br />
Morrison answers your<br />
questions on the way to<br />
find the perfect hat for a<br />
wedding.<br />
Q: I’m not used to wearing hats<br />
– where do I start?<br />
A: There are many things to<br />
consider – hair colour, height,<br />
accessories, the occasion, the<br />
style and colour of your outfit<br />
and of course, what you feel<br />
comfortable in.<br />
Generally, the brim of the hat<br />
matches the main colour of the<br />
outfit with a splash of colour on<br />
the crown or trim to highlight<br />
other details, but not always,<br />
and this is where my skills<br />
come in.<br />
Don’t be afraid to try hats on,<br />
it will soon become apparent<br />
what’s best for you.<br />
sweeping brim or one with a<br />
trim that lifts the eye, the eye,<br />
will soften a rectangular face.<br />
Broad and angled brims with a<br />
wide crown, will narrow a round<br />
face and almost any shape suits<br />
an oval face, although large<br />
brims are the most flattering.<br />
If you are petite choose a<br />
narrow brim with a high crown<br />
to add height; if you are tall you<br />
can carry off most styles, but be<br />
careful to avoid a hat that looks<br />
too small.<br />
Q: I want to look confident<br />
wearing my hat. How do I<br />
achieve this<br />
A: If a hat is fitted properly,<br />
feels comfy and co-ordinates<br />
with your outfit you will wear it<br />
with confidence.<br />
My aim when making you a hat<br />
is to make you feel special and<br />
on-trend.<br />

Q: What style will suit me?<br />
A: Small perching hats suit<br />
heart-shaped faces; a full<br />
Sometimes you can look shorter<br />
if your shoes and hat match –<br />
instead match the bag with the<br />
hat.<br />

PLANNING A WEDDING CAN BE A VERY DAUNTING TASK, UNLESS YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE SUPER<br />
ORGANISED TYPES, BUT HERE ARE OUR 5 TOP TIPS TO GETTING YOUR PERFECT DAY SPOT ON:<br />
1) Give yourself time to work out all the details.<br />
The top item on your plan is getting your wedding<br />
ceremony and reception venues sorted. Once you<br />
have done this then you will have a date you are<br />
working towards.<br />
2) Work out the things you could maybe do<br />
yourself. This could save some money for the<br />
overall scheme, but remember don’t give yourself<br />
jobs that require any of your time on the day.<br />
3) Plan everything with your groom. He may be<br />
happy to go along with your scheme and ideas,<br />
but plan this together, that way you will have<br />
great memories to look back on and it’s your first<br />
chance to work as a team. Believe me it makes<br />
great practice for when you have children.<br />
4) Seek advice from wedding professionals.<br />
Many wedding companies will have provided<br />
services to your venue before and for the items<br />
you don’t want to do yourself, their advice is key.<br />
This will make sure you are less flustered on the<br />
day, as you know they will manage all the parts<br />
for you.<br />
5) Remember that the devil is in the details, but<br />
also remember that it is only you, that knows<br />
those details. So if something isn’t right, or is<br />
missing on the day, your guests will probably not<br />
notice. So relax and enjoy your big day together!<br />
To get more great advice from true professionals,<br />
why not visit The Newmarket Wedding Show on<br />
Sunday 22nd January, between 11am and 4pm.<br />
There will be around 140 people to talk to who<br />
will be able to give advice on everything to help<br />
you plan your wedding.<br />

Taking up Tradition<br />
In a lot of ways, British wedding<br />
celebrations haven’t changed all<br />
that much over the ages.<br />
The process from church to reception, wedding<br />
breakfast to celebration – it’s much been the<br />
same for centuries. However, it can sometimes<br />
feel that with so many ideas out there, the<br />
traditional British wedding could be overlooked.<br />
Here are just a couple of simple ideas that could<br />
lend themselves to a more typically traditional<br />
wedding:<br />
Receptions and Toasting: Local Fruits<br />
Custom tends to lean towards champagne or a<br />
similar alternative for receptions and toasting, to<br />
the bride and groom. Traditionally, it would not<br />
have been possible to make wine from grapes<br />
proficiently in the UK or source from abroad with<br />
ease. Instead, the celebratory drink of choice<br />
would have been mead or cider. With such a<br />
beautiful array of mead and cider available both<br />
locally and nationally, why not take tradition by<br />
the horn and opt for a fruity cider reception and a<br />
toast with sweet honey mead.<br />
Dress to Impress?<br />
Way back in Roman times bridesmaids were<br />
instructed to wear similar attire to that of the<br />
bride, in order to ward of evils spirits when<br />
accompanying her on her wedding day. So while<br />
some may say not to wear white on a brides<br />
wedding day, as a sign of respect and tradition, it<br />
was actually regarded as common practice in the<br />
days of the Roman Empire.<br />
The Favours Five<br />
Traditionally guests would have received five<br />
almonds, each signifying a token of well wishing<br />
from the bride and groom: Health, Happiness,<br />
Prosperity, Fertility and Longevity. If you don’t want<br />
to give almonds as favours, why not a beautifully<br />
decorated crossword with the five words hidden<br />
with clues. Or perhaps a differing five items?<br />
Ultimately, it’s not always about the next best<br />
thing or what’s trending online.<br />

NHS recommend that children aged between 5-18<br />
year old’s should three times a week carry out<br />
exercises that will increase muscular strength and<br />
improve bone strength such as press-ups, jumping<br />

physical activity improves social skills and self<br />

(OOT-kah -TAHSanna)<br />
Benefits<br />
Strengthens the ankles, thighs, calves, and spine<br />
Stretches shoulders and chest.<br />
Stimulates the abdominal organs, diaphragm, and<br />
heart.<br />
Reduces flat feet.<br />
Cautions:<br />
Headache, Insomnia, Low blood pressure.<br />
How to try the pose:<br />
1. Stand in Tadasana. Inhale and raise your arms<br />
perpendicular to the floor. Either keep the arms<br />
parallel, palms facing inward, or join the palms.<br />
2.Exhale and bend your knees, trying to take the<br />
thighs as nearly parallel to the floor as possible.<br />
The knees will project out over the feet, and the<br />
torso will lean slightly forward over the thighs<br />
until the front torso forms approximately a right<br />
angle with the tops of the thighs. Keep the inner<br />
thighs parallel to each other and press the heads<br />
of the thigh bones down toward the heels.<br />
3. Firm your shoulder blades against the back.<br />
Take your tailbone down toward the floor and in<br />
toward your pubis to keep the lower back long.<br />
inhalation, lifting strongly through the arms.<br />
Exhale and release your arms to your sides into<br />
Tadasana.<br />
Beginner’s Tip:<br />
To help you stay in this pose, perform it near<br />
a wall. Stand with your back to the wall, a few<br />
inches away from the wall. Adjust your position<br />
relative to the wall so that when you bend into<br />
the position, your tailbone just touches and is<br />
supported by the wall.<br />
Deepen the Pose:<br />
The secret to a comfortable stay in Utkatasana<br />
is the release of the heads of the thigh bones<br />
toward the heels. Once in the pose, bring your<br />
hands to your tops thighs. Nestle the bases of<br />
your palms into the creases of the groins and<br />
push the heads of thighs toward the heels,<br />
digging the heels deep into the floor. Against<br />
these actions, lift the sitting bones up into the<br />
pelvis.<br />

The Wines<br />
of Argentina<br />
This country is about the 5th largest producer of wine in the world,<br />
with a history going back to it’s conquest by Spain. Cuttings were<br />
introduced in 1557 which started the wine industry.<br />
growth was established. Even with the ups and<br />
downs of the Argentine economy in the 20th<br />
Century, the wine industry survived with much<br />
internal consumption.<br />
BY ‘WINE BUFF’ FRED FISHER<br />
Initially it was only for basic quality but in large<br />
amounts. Jesuit missionaries expanded the<br />
cultivation of vines, including it’s most famous<br />
area, Mendoza, close to the Andes mountain range.<br />
Up to the 1990’s the quality was not considered to<br />
be exportable and most was consumed locally or<br />
for sacramental purposes.<br />
Since the Falklands war in 1982 quality increased<br />
gradually leading to today’s culture of exporting<br />
high quality wine. By 1885 with the construction<br />
of the rail links to the capital Buenos Aires, more<br />
With foreign investment, by the end of the 20th<br />
Century growth in quality wines led to exports<br />
around the world.<br />
Climate and Geography<br />
Most wine areas are in the west of the country<br />
bordering the Andes. These areas are somewhat<br />
sheltered by the mountains and therefore have<br />
a fairly dry climate with summer temperatures<br />
reaching 40C, and winter about 10C. Even the<br />
same areas at high altitude go down to 0C but<br />
little frost.<br />
As the winter snows melt, irrigation channels<br />

bring this water down to the vineyards. Soils<br />
range from mostly alluvial to clay, gravel and<br />
limestone.<br />
The vines<br />
Being in the southern hemisphere means that<br />
the growing season is between October and<br />
February. Harvesting can take place up to April<br />
depending on the local micro-climate. Grape<br />
pickings are largely by hand but some is by<br />
machine.<br />
Yields are generally high, 5 or so more times as<br />
those in Europe. As quality increases the yields<br />
will decrease accordingly.<br />
The phylloxera louse , although present<br />
in Argentina, is a weak strain and<br />
under control. As a result of<br />
this most vines are ungrafted<br />
which despite the isolation of<br />
Argentina, carries a risk.<br />
Regions<br />
Mendoza<br />
The vast majority of wine comes<br />
from and around the Mendoza region,<br />
to the west of the country and in the lee<br />
of the Andes. The acreage here is more than the<br />
acreage of New Zealand and Australia combined.<br />
This region can be split into several sub-regions,<br />
Maipu and Lu<strong>jan</strong> de Cuyo being the most<br />
important. Other notable areas are Uco Valley<br />
and Tupungato.<br />
a long history of producing sherry like wines and<br />
brandies.<br />
La Rioja is the oldest area and is best at making<br />
white wines. Lack of water can be a problem.<br />
The North West have the sub-regions of<br />
Catamarca, Jujuy and Salta with planting at high<br />
altitudes of 1500 metres. The Cafayate area in<br />
Salta has plantings even at 1660 metres.<br />
Rio Negro and some of Patagonia have cooler<br />
climates. They only produce about 2% of the<br />
countries wine but lean more to prestige wines as<br />
a result of the cooler climate.<br />
Grapes<br />
Of particular importance is the Malbec originating<br />
in Bordeaux France. It is used well in high<br />
altitude vineyards.<br />
Also introduced by French and<br />
Italian winemakers, who are<br />
consulted, are many European<br />
varieties. These include Chardonnay,<br />
Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Muscat,<br />
Torrontes, Cabernet Sauvignon,<br />
Merlot, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Tempranillo<br />
and Barbera. Many others are used<br />
including Bonarda a rarer variety from Savoie in<br />
France.<br />
Still accounting for about 30% of production<br />
is the Criolla, used for basic bulk wine and<br />
frequently in a cardboard carton or produced as<br />
concentrate.<br />
Other Regions<br />
San Juan is the next largest vineyard area. Hotter<br />
than Mendoza, while making good reds they have<br />
Fortunately international varieties are taking over,<br />
especially the Malbec, creating Argentina as a<br />
renowned quality wine producer.<br />
Conclusions...<br />
Try comparing grape varieties with their European counterparts and you would be in for a surprise. If<br />
you can locate high altitude wines e.g Salta and Cafayate then you are in for another surprise.<br />

Beer, Bands & Beards<br />
SUCCESS AT THE BECCLES BEER FESTIVAL...<br />
The Beccles Beer Festival<br />
returned to Beccles Public<br />
Hall in November for its<br />
5th year and was again a<br />
resounding success.<br />
More than 4,000 pints of beer<br />
and 500 pints of cider and<br />
lager were enjoyed by visitors<br />
from all over East Anglia!<br />
They were joined by real ale<br />
enthusiasts from Beccles<br />
and the Waveney Valley and<br />
the Beer festival is first and<br />
foremost a community event,<br />
in the community Public Hall,<br />
raising funds for the community pool - Beccles<br />
Lido.<br />
The event also promotes local produce, and the 30<br />
real ales, 3 ciders and a lager were from 25 local<br />
breweries, all within 30 miles of Beccles – with<br />
Green Jack’s Trawlerboys Best Bitter being voted<br />
“Beer of the Festival”.<br />
The crowds enjoyed live bands on Friday and<br />
Saturday and despite Friday being ladies night the<br />
weekend also attracted plenty of beer loving men<br />
in beards!<br />
It was a huge success, raising much needed funds<br />
for the town’s outdoor swimming pool, and next<br />
year’s event is already being planned for <strong>17</strong>-19<br />
November. In fact, many visitors were asking if<br />
there could be a spring Beccles Beer Festival…<br />

restaurant Frederick’s. Fredrick’s has more<br />
sophisticated fare, serving fine modern<br />
European cuisine by candlelight. We were also<br />
delighted to see a whole menu specifically for<br />

Following a close second, was<br />
The Bildeston Crown, a trendy yet<br />
traditional village local, painted<br />
out in bold colours, stunning<br />
murals and lined with original<br />
timber frames.<br />
Our first highlight from 2016 had<br />
to be Ickworth House Hotel.<br />
The hotel itself is unmistakably grand, all the<br />
high ceilings and aristocratic touches you’d<br />
expect of an 18th century ancestral home.<br />
The most striking thing you’ll notice as you<br />
arrive, heading up the estate’s long drive, is<br />
the Rotunda.<br />
All of the rooms are name after regular guests<br />
during its halcyon days. There are 27 rooms<br />
in the main hotel, which are individually<br />
furnished, in keeping with the classical style of<br />
the building.<br />
This original 15th century coaching inn has<br />
been imaginatively refurbished to say the<br />
least. Owners, Hayley and Chris ran the Crown<br />
for ten years, and decided to move on to a<br />
new challenge.<br />
After an offer they couldn’t refuse from the<br />
previous owner, they decided to call it home<br />
once more and returned to the Crown to<br />
restore it to its shining glory, and that they<br />
certainly have.<br />
Throughout the building all the lovely timber<br />
frames, original beams, and an inglenook<br />
fireplace survives, however the interiors are<br />
decorated in dark bold colours, stripped<br />
floorboards, amazing sofas and a mixture of<br />
contemporary and traditional art on the walls.<br />
Our kind of place!<br />
There are two restaurants at the hotel. The<br />
Conservatory, which serves breakfast, lunch<br />
and dinner and the adult-only fine dining<br />
The bar serves cocktails perfect for a predinner<br />
drink, and as for dinner itself, what a<br />
selection we were presented with.<br />

Finally, nestled within the Deben<br />

in the picturesque village of<br />
Easton.<br />
Surrounded by quaint countryside, we were<br />
delighted to have option to sit outside on the<br />

when presented with the menu this was not an<br />

TO DETOX OR<br />
NOT TO DETOX…<br />
is that the question?<br />
BY EMMA HARVEY LAWRENCE<br />
I have had my fair share of fad dieting<br />
and 7 day detox packages and I can<br />
honestly say that I have been consistently<br />
disappointed. Haven’t you? Why not try<br />
something different this New Year?<br />
Rather than focusing on a New You, have a go at<br />
creating a Better You, and I promise it will last longer<br />
than the first week of January.<br />
What does ‘detox’ mean?<br />
Quite literally, to detox your body, is to abstain from<br />
or rid the body of toxic or unhealthy substances.<br />
From this, a lot of people tend to follow short-term<br />
‘detox diets’ that essentially deprives and gives<br />
nothing back to the body or mind, for the longer<br />
term.<br />
But what about ridding your toxins, avoiding further<br />
intake of those that you wish to remove and then<br />
build the foundations for long-term lifestyle changes,<br />
too? To benefit the way you feel as well as the way<br />
you look.<br />
How can I detox & get the results I am looking for?<br />
In short, the simplest way is to find a Nutritional<br />
Therapist. You may have initial goals of feeling<br />
brighter, losing weight, increasing energy levels etc…<br />
What your Nutritional Therapist will do is provide you<br />
with constructive methods, to follow through with<br />
those goals.<br />
A Nutritional Therapist can provide meal plans,<br />
health advise and better still get to the bottom of<br />
any lingering questions regarding food intolerance,<br />
allergies or cravings. Through tests, thorough<br />
questionnaires and an in-depth consultation, you will<br />
have put all of your food and lifestyle related woes<br />
into the hands of a trained and resourceful therapist.<br />
How can I tell if it is working?<br />
Pursuing the recommendations from your Nutritional<br />
Therapist may not be a quick fix but I can confidently<br />
say that any changes in your diet and your lifestyle,<br />
will be felt and seen over time.<br />
You will be expected to follow up with your<br />
Nutritional Therapist every month or so, so that they<br />
can support you in your journey, towards becoming a<br />
better you and achieve what you to, for yourself.<br />
Is it possible to detox the mind as well as the body?<br />
By simply taking control over what you eat and do,<br />
can be an incredibly empowering process. The more<br />
confidence you have, the more you stick to a routine<br />
that routine will evolve with you, so that you are<br />
in charge of keeping yourself stimulated as well as<br />
nourished.<br />
So why not give it a go? Make a New Year’s<br />
resolution that lasts and focus on the you that you<br />
are, to be the best you can be.<br />

Death, Delusion, Dementia and Deceit<br />
A day in the life of a Private Client Solicitor<br />
The usual defi nition is Private Client but only<br />
other lawyers will understand that term. If I say<br />
Wills, Trust and Probate I can see people’s eyes<br />
glazing over. When I mention that I handle peoples’<br />
matters by being a Deputy or Attorney,<br />
people then think I am a fi nancial advisor. So<br />
now if the situation is suitable, I say that I deal<br />
with death, delusion, dementia and deceit.<br />
Granted that sounds somewhat irreverent but it is<br />
an apt description of what my day and<br />
working life involves.<br />
So how do these four “D’s” feature in my daily<br />
working life? Death is the uniting factor that none<br />
of us can avoid but we can make provision for<br />
our family on our passing by making a Will. I<br />
hear a lot of supposed reasons for not making<br />
Wills from “I don’t have anything”, “my wife/<br />
husband will get it all anyway”, “it’s too depressing”<br />
and I still encounter people who feel that<br />
making a Will will hasten their departure from<br />
this world.<br />
My involvement in drawing up Wills for individuals<br />
is to ensure that your hard earned assets do<br />
go to the people you love, care for and wish to<br />
benefi t. If you do not make a Will, it still surprises<br />
people who actually inherit the assets, especially<br />
if you are not married to a partner. I have seen<br />
too many times the consequences of not making<br />
a Will where the person you wish to inherit is<br />
not covered by the Intestacy Rules which apply<br />
an order of who receives assets when no Will is<br />
in existence. A very common scenario is where<br />
co-habitees have adult children from previous<br />
relationships. If one of them dies and the assets<br />
are just in the sole name then all their assets will<br />
pass to their children not their partner. This could<br />
cause a very real and immediate problem to<br />
the surviving partner of losing their home and<br />
money. A Will could have changed all this and<br />
provisions could have been made both for the<br />
partner and the adult children.<br />
It is therefore very important that when you do<br />
make a Will, consider the different needs of the<br />
various people within your family and how you<br />
can be as fair as possible when there can be<br />
competing interests. It is also the time to think<br />
about whether any of your benefi ciaries need<br />
protection under a Will in which case a straight<br />
forward Trust could be involved to protect them<br />
from their own vulnerabilities. It is also important<br />
to appoint executors who will look after your<br />
wishes; you are the person who knows your<br />
family better than anyone else and therefore it<br />
should be you who is choosing who will administer<br />
and look after your estate so as to ensure<br />
that family disagreements are kept to a minimum.<br />
If you feel that no one in the family is the right<br />
person for the job then you need to consider appointing<br />
a professional, either a family solicitor<br />
or an accountant who has dealt with the family<br />
over the years who will have some insight and<br />
family knowledge but who will also be fi rm but<br />
fair handed should the occasion need it. This<br />
brings me on to delusion. It is quite apparent<br />
from dealing with the Administration of Estates<br />
and obtaining probate that potential benefi ciaries<br />
sometimes have higher expectations of what<br />
they will be left under a Will than the actual reality.<br />
All too frequently I am contacted by remoter<br />
family relatives enquiring as to what they might<br />
have been left under someone’s Will, quite often<br />
even when they have not seen that family member<br />
for 30 years plus.<br />
When I am asked what area of law I<br />
specialise in, I have spent years trying to<br />
have a clever answer encompassing within<br />
one line precisely what I do.<br />
It is therefore helpful when you are dealing with<br />
a Will or making changes to a Will, to have<br />
letters addressed to both the executors and to<br />
the benefi ciaries. This can explain why someone<br />
is not included in a Will, the history of the family<br />
and if the Deceased has cut out an individual<br />
who was fi nancially dependent on them and<br />
the reasons why. The latter is most important as<br />
there are groups of benefi ciaries who can make<br />
a claim against someone’s estate if they feel that<br />
they have not been adequately provided for. If<br />
you are considering this then seeking advice is<br />
essential and a letter even more so, so that the<br />
administration of the estate can be as smooth as<br />
possible.<br />
One of the most satisfying parts of my job is<br />
acting as a Deputy or an Attorney for those who<br />
are cruelly affected by dementia and either do<br />
not have any family or whose family members<br />
are frail and elderly themselves to help them with<br />
their fi nancial matters. When I have been appointed<br />
as Attorney whilst they still have mental<br />
capacity then I will have known them and asked<br />
them details of how and where they would wish<br />
to live in the future, what sort of assistance they<br />
would like to be given should they lose mental<br />
capacity and how they would like their fi nances<br />
to be handled. It is very sad if this day does arrive,<br />
but to be able to assist a client when they do<br />
not have anyone else to stand in their shoes and<br />
look after their fi nancial and health matters gives<br />
me a great sense of pride. Similarly if I am appointed<br />
as a Deputy by the Court of Protection,<br />
where there is no other family members available,<br />
it is again a very rewarding position to be<br />
that person’s champion. This can involve sorting<br />
75<br />
out the correct residential care for them, continuing<br />
to check they are being looked after in the<br />
home, liaising with social/healthcare workers<br />
and others to make sure that they receive all<br />
the assistance and extra help they may require.<br />
It also means being fi nancially responsible for<br />
their money and making sure and taking advice<br />
to ensure that their money will last as long as<br />
possible to keep them in their chosen home. It<br />
also means visiting them, talking with them and<br />
making sure that they have the clothes that they<br />
like and need and any other items which may<br />
provide the day to day stimulation to make their<br />
end of days care as comfortable as possible.<br />
Sadly part of my daily legal life in dealing with<br />
people’s affairs brings me into contact with<br />
various people who have seen fi t to take fi nancial<br />
advantage of either their own family members<br />
or others. All too often I encounter people<br />
who feel that it is acceptable to use Mum or<br />
Dad’s credit card or debit card as they know the<br />
pin number to not only look after their parent’s<br />
fi nances but also to benefi t themselves. In these<br />
circumstances I have to draw on my own diplomatic<br />
skills to point out that the position of being<br />
an attorney is one of trust and the overwhelming<br />
point is to ensure that the person who has given<br />
the power of attorney to someone is looked after,<br />
not the actual Attorney. In some cases when<br />
the parent dies adjustments do have to be made<br />
to the amount such a child receives under a Will.<br />
This is where it is vital to seek advice before entering<br />
into a Lasting Power of Attorney to make<br />
sure that you have chosen the right person from<br />
your family to be an Attorney and also that before<br />
the Attorney takes on the appointment that<br />
they understand the limitation on how they can<br />
deal with that person’s money.<br />
So in conclusion as solicitors, we do not only<br />
assist with the making of legal documents such<br />
as Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney, we also<br />
take a practical approach of encouraging the<br />
writing of letters to family and Executors so as<br />
to explain the reasons for decisions taken. These<br />
letters are your way of speaking when you no<br />
longer have a voice, either through lost mental<br />
capacity or on your passing.<br />
This way we can deal with<br />
death or dementia and<br />
hopefully side step any<br />
problems with delusion<br />
or deceit.<br />

TO BUY<br />
or not to buy<br />
Not long ago (but technically<br />
last year!) we spoke about<br />
reasons that make it a good<br />
time to throw something out.<br />
BY RUBY REED<br />
Well what about<br />
having some go<br />
to questions that<br />
make it easier to<br />
know whether we<br />
should be buying<br />
something or not?<br />
Having some new guidelines for<br />
the New Year may not be the<br />
worst thing- especially if you<br />
tend to find yourself spending<br />
money on things you don’t really<br />
need- and too often!<br />
For example, I am on my<br />
lunch break, holding up a very<br />
tempting new top. My first<br />
thoughts are; it’s pretty, I like it, I start to imagine the sort<br />
of occasion that I could potentially wear it to. Already I<br />
have started to sell myself the item. I start walking to the<br />
till. Perfect, great find Rubes, well done.<br />
Well before we start this brisk walk to the check out, why<br />
don’t we ask ourselves a few questions… just quickly?<br />
1) Is there actually an occasion on the horizon I will wear<br />
this to?<br />
If the answers no, you may want to consider how long it<br />
is going to be hung up ‘waiting’ for this specific occasion.<br />
Will it be months? If you can think of 3 times you will wear<br />
it the purchase is probably safe. In summary are you going<br />
to get enough use out of this item, or is it just going to take<br />
up your wardrobe space?<br />
2) What other things in my wardrobe will it go with and<br />
do I have anything else like it?<br />
Make sure you can picture the item with your other<br />
clothes- if not it’s going to be sat waiting to be matched<br />
with something, and who knows how long that will be.<br />

JANUARY JANUARY 20<strong>17</strong> | 20<strong>17</strong> ISSUE | #51 ISSUE | #51 LIFESTYLE<br />
Also if you have something<br />
particularly similar, do you<br />
really need this too? Unless<br />
you are replacing it!<br />
3) Can I afford it right now?<br />
Be sensible. If there’s<br />
something else that needs<br />
more financial attention at<br />
the moment, take a step back.<br />
You might thank yourself<br />
later. Another trap is to find a<br />
bargain and think you couldn’t<br />
possibly leave this item. But<br />
try to think if you’re buying<br />
it for the sake of it. Would<br />
you even be thinking about<br />
this if it were full price or<br />
considerably more?<br />
4) Lastly, will it make me<br />
happy?<br />
If you need a pick me up after<br />
a rough day, or simply know<br />
you’d regret not buying it, then it’s ok to treat<br />
yourself once in a while!<br />
most important thing right now. So with these<br />
few quick fire questions, maybe we’ll end up<br />
walking away from a few more unnecessary<br />
buys in the future. Put this to the test and who<br />
knows, maybe that pay check will go a little<br />
further this month…<br />
Good Luck with your next temptation!<br />
Follow me on Twitter @rubyslifestyle.<br />
Similar questions can be used not just on<br />
clothes but anything! Ask yourself how much<br />
use you will get from something, how much<br />
of a difference it will be making and if it’s the<br />

Back<br />
to the basics<br />
Let’s start at the very beginning, it’s a<br />
very good place to start... as the New<br />
Year is here so many of us create new<br />
beginnings...<br />
I am going to talk you through the different types<br />
of bases there are in make-up.<br />
BB CREAMS<br />
BB stands for Beauty Balm, it is a light tinted<br />
moisturiser that suits every skin type. It does not<br />
have coverage, but smoothes things out, great for<br />
summer!<br />
CC CREAMS<br />
CC stands for Colour Control, they were designed<br />
for sallow or red in the skin. It smoothes and evens<br />
out the skin tone. This is not recommended for<br />
oily or problem skin.<br />
DD CREAMS<br />
DD stands for Daily Defence. They are very good<br />
at protecting your skin from the rays of the sun,<br />
but I would not advice using them all the time as<br />
they can block the pores.<br />
EE CREAMS<br />
EE stands for Extra Exfoliation. These are<br />
designed to get rid of the dead skin cells, leaving<br />
the skin smooth and clear. They should only be<br />
used once or twice a week and make sure you<br />
research good ones, as some are too scratchy<br />
and can leave minute scratches on the surface of<br />
the skin.<br />
Of course you have your serums, moisturisers<br />
and foundations as normal, which I will touch on<br />
another time.<br />

SPRING/SUMMER <strong>17</strong><br />
Charlie Long shares an insight on this spring/summers<br />
make-up trends...<br />
The spring/summer 20<strong>17</strong> makeup<br />
trends have arrived and for all<br />
you make-up phobes you will be<br />
pleased to hear that the upcoming<br />
season is all about minimal,<br />
effortless make-up.<br />
This season is for the lazy girls but also the<br />
brave, it is about those that are spontaneous<br />
with make-up and like to go crazy with colour.<br />
Spring/summer is all about being fearless and<br />
not afraid to step out of your comfort zone<br />
and try something new.<br />
So, now that Christmas is done and dusted<br />
for another year, it is time to refresh your<br />
make-up collection by adding some colour.<br />
The new limited edition Urban Decay Full<br />
Spectrum Eye shadow Palette is a must have<br />
in everyone’s make-up collection for 20<strong>17</strong>.<br />
The limited edition set includes 21 eye<br />
shadows in a variety of rainbow-inspired hues;<br />
this is the most that Urban Decay has ever<br />
included in a palette.<br />
The shades are elegantly arranged in trios by<br />
colour family.<br />

This makes the palette aesthetically pleasing<br />
on the eye and allows for tonnes of creativity.<br />
The palette includes super-smooth mattes to<br />
shimmer-laced shades; each shade features<br />
Urban Decay’s Pigment Infusion System.<br />
The pigment infusion system is what gives<br />
each shade it’s velvety, rich colour, blendable,<br />
staying power properties.<br />
The Full Spectrum palette also features a<br />
mirror and comes complete with a doubleended<br />
brush. This tapered brush is perfect<br />
for placing eye shadow on the eyelid and also<br />
defining the crease or blending out colour.<br />
This beautifully sleek palette will only set you<br />
back a mere £43, which I think its exceptional<br />
value for money and can either be purchased<br />
direct from Urban Decay (www.urbandecay.<br />
co.uk) or House of Fraser.<br />

New Year, New Glow with SK Clinic + Spa...<br />
A few home remedies and a visit to<br />
SK Clinic + Spa after the indulgent<br />
festive season to restore your skin’s<br />
natural glow.<br />
DETOX<br />
You will hear the word detox a lot in January<br />
but the best way to determine if you need to<br />
detox is by assessing your complexion. If your<br />
body is not given the tools or time to cleanse<br />
itself properly, an excessive build-up of toxins<br />
can occur; the skin is one of the first places a<br />
poor diet and lifestyle will be reflected.<br />
INSIDE OUT<br />
A simple change to make is to up your water<br />
intake to flush out those toxins. During meals<br />
cut down on sugars, carbohydrates, red<br />
meat, alcohol, caffeine and processed foods.<br />
Fruit and vegetables are enriched with antioxidants<br />
to help protect your skin from free<br />
radical damage.<br />
SWEAT IT OUT<br />
Using a sauna or exercising up to three times<br />
a week is excellent at eliminating toxins from<br />
the body, plus the heat generated helps to<br />
calm and fight stress. The pores will also<br />
open, boosting circulation and helping<br />
the skin to flourish.<br />
VISIT SK CLINIC + SPA<br />
To really make your skin glow with a<br />
chance to relax for the New Year, take<br />
advantage of SK’s offer throughout all<br />
of January with the combination of a<br />
Body Polish Treatment and 30-minute<br />
massage.<br />
The Body Polish Treatment will leave your<br />
skin looking its absolute best and of peak<br />
radiance, and a massage is the perfect<br />
addition to induce health and wellbeing,<br />
heal injury, relieve stress, and<br />
improve circulation.<br />
Enjoy this combined treatment for only<br />
£50 throughout January.<br />

STRAIGHT<br />
FROM THE<br />
CATWALK<br />
SPONSORED BY CABELLO, HALESWORTH<br />
With the Spring/Summer 20<strong>17</strong><br />
runway shows drawing to a close,<br />
we saw a whole host of new hair and<br />
beauty looks to get excited about.<br />
Textured hair, bold eye shadows and brushed up<br />
brows are just some of the trends designers from<br />
across the globe have been showcasing for next<br />
season.<br />
Here are some of the top trends that can be taken<br />
straight off the catwalk and into your hair and beauty<br />
regime.<br />
FELINE FLICKS...<br />
Dramatic, winged eyeliner was popular on the<br />
catwalks, especially in the Milan shows. Perfecting<br />
a wing can be easily achieved with good, longlasting<br />
liquid eyeliner. To make your wings even<br />
more accurate, simply place clear adhesive tapes<br />
underneath your bottom lashes and angle them<br />
towards your temples. Draw on your eyeliner using<br />
the tape as a guide. Remove the tape after applying<br />

and say hello to flicks that finally match.<br />
PLAITS...<br />
The most prominent hairstyle shown this runway<br />
season was undoubtedly plaits. From Paris to New<br />
York – numerous runway shows were showcasing<br />
plaited locks with both casual and evening looks.<br />
For a carefree, dressed-down style, tie mini plaits in<br />
sections of your hair and accessorise them with beads<br />
or hair rings. For a more glamorous look, French plait<br />
both sides of your head down to the nape of your<br />
neck. Attach both plaits together once there and<br />
braid down to the end of your hair so it finishes as<br />
one. Complete with a jewelled hair tie or a ribbon.<br />
TEXTURED CURLS...<br />
Curls, perms, crimps and waves were everywhere on<br />
the SS’<strong>17</strong> runways. Achieve the curls you desire by<br />
using different electronic hair products. For small,<br />
tight curls, a thin curling wand is best. For soft, larger<br />
waves, a barrel waver or heated ceramic rollers will<br />
work better.<br />
Glitter Lips from www.lovelemonade.com<br />
RIBBONS...<br />
Accessorize your way into next season by ditching<br />
normal hair ties and opting for pretty ribbons instead.<br />
Tie around the head and fasten to create a cute Aliceband,<br />
or belt around the base of a slick, low ponytail<br />
for effortless on-the-go style.<br />
GLITTER LIPS...<br />
One look that got everybody talking this fashion<br />
week was the glitter lips that were featured on the<br />
Milan catwalks. These look amazing at parties and<br />
will be sure to get you tons of compliments. Achieve<br />
this look easily at home by applying a bold, glossy lip<br />
colour onto the lips (you can use your favourite tinted<br />
gloss or a high-shine lipstick). Then, when the lips are<br />
still wet, dab a face glitter (in a similar shade to the<br />
lipstick) onto the lips using a cotton bud.<br />

Let the<br />
light in<br />
The New Year’s resolution, the<br />
little tradition of a promise to<br />
yourself to make a little change<br />
in some way to make things<br />
easier.<br />
The promise might be to take more holiday, or<br />
spend a little more time on yourself, or even to<br />
break the new years resolution... But how about<br />
sticking to one that not only benefits you, but<br />
also benefits your friends and family every day?<br />
How about letting the light back into your home.<br />
We don’t mean more fairy lights, as you will no<br />
doubt have seen enough over Christmas. No,<br />
we mean, lightening and opening everything up,<br />
fresh and ready for the New Year.<br />
Of course, once the New Year hits, so does reality,<br />
and from celebrations, parties and feasting,<br />
comes work, school runs, and daily life.<br />
Wouldn’t it be nice to come back from a long<br />
day to a home that is uncluttered, free from<br />
indian piles and space to start the evening in? Or<br />
even to come down to in the morning? Remind<br />
yourself that your home is a sacred place, but<br />
also that it is a haven away from the world. We<br />
are not saying get rid of absolutely everything<br />
and paint it all white. We are saying store, hang,<br />
bundle and fold. Add a few touches of new to the<br />
edge of a sofa, the middle of the table, or by the<br />
back door.<br />
Just Ideas...<br />
Hang it up. There will always be wall space<br />
for a few more hangers for coats, scarves and<br />
blankets. It frees up the piles over the back of<br />
chairs!<br />
Having big wicker baskets dotted around the<br />
house for any use - logs, books, clothes or how<br />
about for shoes by the back door?<br />
Mirrors. The epitome of creating light. How<br />
about hanging a few round the house?<br />
Lighten up the decor. Swap darker cushion<br />
covers or throws for a lighter.<br />
Let the light in and ready for a brand new year.<br />
Get a new lamp to light up that dark corner.<br />

THE START OF THE YEAR<br />
BY KATE LINES<br />
Kates Top Tip : Now’s a great time to prune<br />
currants and gooseberries - especially new<br />
bushes or cordons.<br />
In January, your garden could need<br />
protecting from frosts, gale-force<br />
winds and heavy rain.<br />
General<br />
Check stakes, ties, fleeces and other supports for<br />
damage and consider moving plants to sunnier<br />
positions to maximize light.<br />
Don’t forget to keep feeding the birds, food is scarce<br />
for them over winter. You can also start planning next<br />
year’s vegetable plot.<br />
Fruit<br />
• Plant bare-root trees and bushes, as long as the soil<br />
isn’t frozen.<br />
Vegetables<br />
• Sow broad beans in pots in mild areas, placing<br />
them in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse.<br />
• Sow seed indoors for early crops eg: lettuces,<br />
summer brassicas (e.g. cabbages and cauliflowers),<br />
spinach, salad onions and turnips.<br />
• Sow onion seed in a heated propagator.<br />

SPORT<br />
owner Marcus Evans. He has allowed the club to<br />
stagnate and left McCarthy to do an admirable<br />
job with one hand tied behind his back, while not<br />
appearing to have the football nous to do anything<br />
about it.<br />
JUST CALLING FOR MICK<br />
MCCARTHY’S HEAD IS TOO SHORT-<br />
SIGHTED…THE TOWN BOSS IS ONLY<br />
PART OF THE PROBLEM...<br />
As I write this, after watching<br />
another instantly forgettable<br />
match, I fear Ipswich Town are at<br />
a crossroads.<br />
In truth, the 1-1 home draw<br />
with Cardiff City might live a<br />
little longer in the memory<br />
– but only for Bluebirds<br />
defender Sol Bamba<br />
completely losing the plot<br />
and some memorable halftime<br />
fare which saw ITFC<br />
cheerleaders dance to a<br />
brass band.<br />
If that piece of<br />
‘entertainment’ made no sense,<br />
the same could be said for Mick McCarthy’s<br />
thinking in constantly leaving Jonny Williams<br />
on the bench and Jonas Knudsen on the pitch.<br />
The vultures have been circling above the<br />
home dugout for quite a while with most<br />
glad to see the back of 2016, even if many are<br />
staying away from Portman Road altogether.<br />
I have said in this column repeatedly that I<br />
want to be entertained and, for that reason<br />
alone, I don’t think Mick is my man.<br />
But, in a rare quirk in football, I am not<br />
convinced that a change in manager will bring<br />
about a change in fortune, whether quick-fix<br />
or longer term.<br />
The larger blame must rest at the door of<br />
Back McCarthy. Or sack McCarthy and free the purse<br />
strings (a little) for a new man. The choice is that<br />
simple.<br />
The fact Evans is appearing to do neither, while<br />
remaining forever reclusive, is unforgiveable.<br />
Even then, there are yet more problems than just the<br />
owner/manager combo – though you could argue<br />
they are the reason for the following concerns.<br />
The standard of football at Portman Road over<br />
the last 12 months has been consistently dire and<br />
nearly always forgettable. Ask me my favourite three<br />
matches in the last calendar year<br />
and I would struggle.<br />
In fact, it would probably be as a<br />
result of a decent opponent rather<br />
than because of the men in blue.<br />
And what do you get when the<br />
football is bad and a lot of people<br />
are blaming either the manager<br />
or the owner – or both? Poor<br />
attendances.<br />
These dismal matches are being<br />
played out to a half-full Portman<br />
Road and I don’t blame anyone who stays away.<br />
I write this just 13 days before Christmas – and I<br />
apologise for its ‘Bah Humbug’ nature, especially as<br />
you are reading this at the start of a new year.<br />
I am just very fearful of these crossroads and the<br />
direction my football club is taking.<br />

BY ROSS “ACTION MAN” WISHART<br />
Happy New Year! Welcome<br />
one and all to 20<strong>17</strong>! It’s<br />
going to be a great one,<br />
and here’s why...<br />
It’s hard to believe that it has been a year<br />
now since I was carted off a football pitch by<br />
ambulance.<br />
Whilst I knew my leg was broken, I was<br />
stunned when the consultant told me that<br />
that my knee’s posterior cruciate ligament<br />
was completely ruptured, it couldn’t be<br />
repaired surgically due to its proximity to the<br />
artery and they don’t heal, the ligament was<br />
history.<br />
To say I was devastated is an understatement,<br />
regular Bounce readers will know that I’m<br />
quite an active fellow, (the clue is in the<br />
nickname!) not just for my articles, which<br />
I’ve been writing for almost four years now<br />
and very much enjoy, but also other regular<br />
sporting exploits not to mention running after<br />
two small children.<br />
A part of me at that time thought it was all<br />
over, Action Man was dead, part of me had<br />
gone for good, could I function without it?<br />
Well at first, not really, it took two months<br />

before I could walk unaided and another<br />
six weeks before I could lose the full leg<br />
brace. Six months were spent in and out of<br />
physiotherapy and it was over nine months<br />
before I was able to grace a football pitch<br />
again.<br />
The prolonged period of traction has left its<br />
mark, I am most certainly heavier with a much<br />
lower level of fitness than this time last year,<br />
but the important this is that I know it, I’m<br />
back and I’m making 20<strong>17</strong> my year, the year to<br />
#getsomeaction<br />
That brings me on to my motivation to write<br />
these articles. I’ve often quipped at my<br />
own shortcomings (pun intended) at 5’ 5.5”<br />
(the half is very important). I’m certainly no<br />
professional athlete. Ross Wishart is married<br />
with two children and a busy full time job,<br />
underneath the intimidating Action Man<br />
persona is just a fairly Average Joe.<br />
All of these clubs, events and activities<br />
featured in Bounce are available to all and if I<br />
can do it that means YOU CAN DO IT!<br />
I absolutely love to hear stories about readers<br />
trying new sports, joining new clubs and<br />
tapping into the Action Man that lives in all<br />
of us! If you have any questions then please<br />
feel free to get in touch, I’m always on hand to<br />
offer any guidance.<br />

GET FIT...<br />
At Liberte Fitness<br />
stick with it along with the additional support<br />
from your peers.<br />
Instead of heading back indoors we<br />
recommend heading for the park!<br />
As we hit the midway point through the<br />
winter and the cold winter mornings and<br />
long dark evenings seem never ending<br />
how do you stay motivated to workout?<br />
Last summer is a distant memory and the next<br />
seems far in the future and staying motivated<br />
is harder than achieving a clear round at total<br />
wipeout!<br />
We spend a majority of our time inside<br />
especially in winter so use your fitness routine<br />
as a chance to get back to nature, disconnect<br />
from technology and make the most of some<br />
pure clean air.<br />
Make sure whatever you do it’s fun - fitness<br />
should always be fun, challenging, but<br />
definitely fun! To book your free trial session<br />
head to www.libertefitness.com.<br />
At LF we have a couple of suggestions that<br />
may help you with the continuous battle you<br />
probably have with your brain.<br />
Exercise with others be it friends or a group<br />
of like minded people - arranging to meet<br />
up keeps us accountable and exercising with<br />
others in our experience makes for a lot more<br />
fun! When you have fun you are more likely to<br />

THEATRE<br />
ROYAL<br />
Early January sees the final 2<br />
weeks of our pantomime Beauty<br />
and the Beast, the show opened<br />
in early December and received<br />
some fantastic reviews and<br />
achieved 4 stars from The Stage.<br />
It was also well attended with over 1000<br />
audience members coming along during its<br />
opening weekend alone. To date 19,000 tickets<br />
have been sold during the run, if you haven’t<br />
been able to join in the fun and mayhem yet<br />
then never fear, Beauty and the Beast continues<br />
until Sunday 15 January.<br />
Once panto closes we have some wonderful<br />
winter warmers to keep you entertained<br />
during the cold month of January. On<br />
Saturday 21 January we welcome the hilarious<br />
Showstoppers. If you haven’t seen them<br />
before they are a touring troupe who create an<br />
improvised musical based on suggestions given<br />
to them from the audience on the evening. The<br />
company boast an array of awards and no two<br />
shows are ever the same. It could be Rocky<br />
Horror meets Miss Saigon or Cats crossed with<br />
Chicago, with the Showstoppers you never<br />
quite know what you are going to get, the only<br />
guarantee is plenty of laughs!<br />
Following on from that we host the latest in<br />
our Lunchtime Concert series on Monday 23<br />
January, we welcome Saxology. They are a<br />
Saxophone Quartet who perform a programme<br />
of Baroque and Classical arrangements, French<br />
Neo Romantic, English Pastoral, American<br />
Jazz and a premiere too, led by composer and<br />
arranger, Jeffery Wilson. Each concert is followed<br />
by complimentary cakes, coffee and tea in the<br />
Greene Room and is sponsored by Gross and Co<br />
Solicitors.<br />
January is completed by the visit of Bury<br />
Theatre Workshop with their stage adaptation of<br />
Tolstoy’s classic novel Anna Karenina. The local<br />
community group perform between Tuesday<br />
24 and Saturday 28 January. The show explores<br />
the themes of personal responsibly, fate and<br />
powerlessness.<br />
Looking into February Theatre Royal Bury<br />
St Edmunds presents Northanger Abbey,<br />
adapted by the acclaimed Austen specialist Tim<br />
Luscombe, this show opens in Bury St Edmunds<br />
and then embarks on National Tour. You can<br />
see the performance between Thursday 2 and<br />
Saturday 11 February.<br />
2016 is now behind us and it was a fantastic year<br />
at Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds with many<br />
brilliant shows. Our line-up for January and early<br />
February sets the bar pretty high for the rest<br />
of the year, I wonder what the rest of 20<strong>17</strong> may<br />
have in store for the theatre? I have no doubt that<br />
there will be plenty more fantastic shows and<br />
many enjoyable evenings. It would be lovely if<br />
you could join us.<br />

BY JACK STEVENS<br />
MUSIC<br />
“This is the set-up for the song,<br />
mate. It’s an introduction. Don’t<br />
interrupt”.<br />
...as Falco attempted to paraphrase<br />
the introduction to ‘Robocop 4...’, one<br />
audience member heckled. He retaliated.<br />
A somewhat disconcerting Andrew<br />
Falkous still exudes charm when picking<br />
on the audience in jest, and his attitude<br />
perfectly mirrors the feeling of his music.<br />
Future of the Left’s sound has always been<br />
a brutal and unsettling listen, but it has<br />
it’s dark, humorous subtext from time to<br />
time. Lyrically dense, with a sound that<br />
bruises and flicks between time signatures<br />
and aggressive pauses, it’s an anxious and<br />
exhilarating listen in equal measure.<br />
The blisteringly loud ‘Arming Eritrea’ opens<br />
their set, which follows on from a blinding<br />
performance from USA Nails, London’s<br />
answer to Drive Like Jehu. Sometimes,<br />
planets align and gods are appeased when<br />
lineups match bands as perfectly as this.<br />
New tracks like ‘If AT&T Drank Tea What<br />
Would BP Do’ injure and offend like the<br />
Jesus Lizard or Shellac. The band’s savage<br />
noise is propelled by Julia Ruzicka’s<br />
woolen fuzz-tone of deafening bass. It<br />
cuts neatly into the drum sound. Jack<br />
Egglestone’s playing is boisterous,<br />
turbulent; it pilots the band’s noise,<br />
hammering in until it stabs you with an<br />
almighty sonic force. The power of this<br />
rhythm section is nothing but fearful.<br />
Elsewhere in the set, ‘The Limits Of<br />
Battleships’ cracks and booms abruptly<br />
throughout, with pauses so blunt that they<br />
feel like cavities being unshelled bare at<br />
brute force.<br />
That humorous subtext is most evident on<br />
tracks like ‘Singing Of The Bonesaws’ and<br />
‘How To Spot A Record Company’, which<br />
are scattered amongst the set. Perhaps<br />
this is the quality that sets Future of the<br />
Left apart from others in the alternative<br />
rock scene... their extended metaphors,<br />
their scornful and ironic references towards<br />
popular culture... it all builds towards<br />
the identity of the band. Something that<br />
excels them even further than Falkous’<br />
previous endeavour, Mclusky, is this deeper<br />
and complex meaning that outrides any<br />
previous output from the Welsh equivalent<br />
of John Reis.<br />
It’s hard to pinpoint what sets this band<br />
apart from others, but seeing Future of<br />
the Left in concert reminds you that the<br />
alternative scene is more than just alive;<br />
it’s flourishing, it’s literate, and incredibly<br />
pissed off.<br />
See you next month - Jack<br />

NEW YEAR, NEW START...<br />
Happy New Year to all my fans out<br />
there… hope you had a bloomin’<br />
amazing Christmas... I did!<br />
So I bet your dying to know all about mine?<br />
Well, it involved loads of Turkey scraps, squeeky<br />
toys (that I took great satisfaction letting off when<br />
everyone was in mid-conversation), presents (which<br />
I unwrapped all by myself), afternoon naps by the<br />
fire and snuggles with my kittens - check out our<br />
Christmas family portrait below – I know pretty cute<br />
right? I am the gorgeous fella in the middle by<br />
the way!<br />
Anyway, enough about them, and more about me,<br />
this year I had my very own Santa costume. I reckon<br />
I looked the part, and on New Year’s Eve we had our<br />
own murder mystery party, they let me join in, (but I<br />
suspect I was the main entertainment in the end).<br />
My resolutions this year are to sneak more treats,<br />
take more walks on the beach and to stop peeing<br />
on the kitchen floor for attention when I am left for<br />
longer than an hour on my own. My bad!<br />
Here’s to 20<strong>17</strong>, keep up to date with my antics on<br />
Twitter @bouncearchie.<br />
Last year, if you remember, the kittens were new<br />
around this gaff, and I thought they were the<br />
Gremlins that invaded Christmas,. Turns out they are<br />
alright really and in a year they’ve grown up to be<br />
my little mates... Even though Harley is bigger than<br />
me now and Mia always tries to steal my spot on<br />
the sofa.<br />
They even left the tree decorations alone this year,<br />
which was a relief as usually its my job to square<br />
them up! Uff!<br />
