In association with the HOME DESIGN YEARBOOK But here’s the thing... Lennon’s last word on Raleigh RALEIGH SMOKED LIKE A CHIMNEY and even turned Good Queen Bess onto the habit - along with several ladies of her court - persuading them that a pipeful of best Virginia was “good for the cough”. King James, the follow-on monarch, sounded a slightly more cautionary note when he wrote in 1604 that it was “A custome lothsome to the eye, hatefull to the Nose, harmefull to the braine, dangerous to the Lungs, and in the blacke stinking fume thereof, neerest resembling the horrible Stigian smoke of the pit that is bottomelesse”. Nicely put, sire, but fast forward to 1815 and here is Charles Lamb, impoverished hack and best friend of Devon’s most famous poet, Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s, scribbling through the night to meet a dawn deadline: “Tobacco, a lone man’s companion, a bachelors friend, a hungry man’s food, a sad man’s cordial, a wakeful man’s sleep, a chilly man’s fire. There is no herb like it under the canopy of heaven.” Last word however to John Lennon who in his song “I’m so tired” (White Album, 1968) “cursed Sir Walter Raleigh he was such a stupid g—-!” Memorial Trust and it’s free, although they invite a donation. The experience begins at the town’s Canaan Way Car Park (EX11 1EQ) on Sunday, 13th May at 2.30 pm. Monies raised will be used to erect s statue to the poet. unpleasant free radicals. But a 25 gallon bath would need 114 bottles of, say Pinot Noir at £4.50 a bottle and cost £513. The cheaper alternative, suggest the denizens of the saloon bar at The Weary Badger (somewhere in Devon) might be to use good old Devon cider instead. Strolling with the poet SITTING and taking in the poetry of Devon’s own Samuel Taylor Coleridge can be a particularly pleasant and rewarding way to pass an early summer afternoon. Better still perhaps might be to leave that armchair and join the Coleridge Memorial Walk - a guided stroll along the River Otter “in the company of the poet and friends”. Organised by the good people of the Coleridge Farm gate takeaway THE CURRENT FAD promoted by beauty spas for bathing in red wine has touched these parts and appears to be costing its acolytes dear. The theory being that red wine is rich in a substance called polyphenol that helps to tone and defoliate the skin while antioxidants fight damage caused by Good-ish no nonsense Devon farm cider bought at the gate (bring your own container) can fill a bath for fess than £137 and it too will be full of polyphenols - in which Devon cider do also abound - as well as flavon-3-ols (catechins), flavonols and hydroxycinnamic acids. Lack of space does not allow that we also pass on their suggestions for recycling either beauty treatment, post-bath. Don’t try this at home - Ed. JOHN FISHER 75
