OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong><br />

Into <strong>October</strong> we go… it’s the month that the<br />

nights draw in and the clocks go back, there<br />

is certainly a change in the air…<br />

With that in mind, keep a lookout for our<br />

special Halloween themed recipes and<br />

features this month, if you dare!<br />

We have not one, but two celebrity interviews<br />

for you this month. I caught up with Echo &<br />

The Bunnymen’s Ian McCulloch about their<br />

new album, ‘The Stars, The Oceans & The<br />

Moon’ followed by a chat with Soul II Soul’s<br />

Jazzie B about their 30th anniversary tour.<br />

You can listen to all of our interviews at<br />

www.youtube.com/bouncemagazineuk.<br />

During September, I had the pleasure in<br />

doing a spot of catwalk modelling for Collen<br />

& Clare’s charity fashion show at Henham<br />

Park, raising money for the East Anglian<br />

Air Ambulance. Over £4000 was raised on<br />

the evening, with more still coming in at the<br />

donation boxes in each of Collen & Clare’s<br />

three stores, read more on pages 14-17.<br />

Our review in this edition took place at The Ivy<br />

Brasserie Norwich. Whilst the decor is indeed<br />

something to shout about, it’s the food and<br />

drink selection that really is the star attraction.<br />

Read what we thought in the food and drink<br />

section.<br />

Hospice lottery is on the lookout for<br />

new members...<br />

HOSPICE CHARITY<br />

LOTTERY<br />

St Nicholas Hospice Care, which provides services and<br />

support for those across West Suffolk with long-term and<br />

life-threatening illnesses, is hoping more people will help<br />

support the charity by becoming a member of its lottery.<br />

Could you give our local hospice a<br />

helping hand by supporting their<br />

charity lottery?<br />

Alison Bacon-Snow, the hospice’s lottery<br />

manager, said: “At the hospice we firmly<br />

believe that everyone in our community<br />

should have the very best experiences in<br />

the final chapters of their lives.<br />

“The lottery is a fun way of giving to<br />

and supporting the hospice but it is also<br />

possibly one of the most dependable &<br />

consistent fundraising activities we have.<br />

Every year our members help to raise more<br />

than £380,000. We always look forward<br />

to welcoming new people to our lottery.<br />

We need people to spread the word, to friends and<br />

family and also colleagues at work; not only about the<br />

hospice’s lottery, but also about the care and services<br />

we provide and not only for those coping with illness,<br />

but also the support we can give those who are left<br />

behind.”<br />

The weekly draw, which celebrated its 20th birthday<br />

in June, has raised around £7.4 million since it started<br />

in 1998 and gives players the chance to win prizes<br />

ranging from £10 to £1,000 every Friday. The second<br />

prize is £250, but if this is not won, it rolls over to the<br />

following weeks’ draw, increasing by £250 until it is<br />

won or reaches £10,000 – at which point one player is<br />

guaranteed to scoop the whole jackpot amount!<br />

Well hello there! I’m back with my monthly column… OK, so firstly a reminder<br />

about me. I’m Zena (Zee for short), I’m 45, a mother and a grandmother.<br />

Winter is coming!<br />

Although I’ve never<br />

watched a single episode<br />

of Game of Thrones, I<br />

do know that’s a catch<br />

phrase!<br />

Now is the time to make<br />

sure your winter coat is in<br />

good nick and maybe have<br />

a splurge on some winter<br />

boots!<br />

Fear not, I am on hand to<br />

guide you.<br />

coveted boots in the land, The Edie buckle<br />

boots from Topshop.<br />

But you know what? This<br />

season I’m reverting to a<br />

classic style.<br />

I’m investing in the staples.<br />

A neutral wool Crombie<br />

style coat and a decent pair<br />

of black Chelsea boots.<br />

Although the Church’s<br />

boots I really want are a bit out<br />

of my price range, I’ve found some<br />

Grenson boots that will last a lifetime - plus<br />

they are beautiful.<br />

Over the last three winters I’ve had my<br />

trusty leopard print fur coat and I love it.<br />

I will have a full winter coat and boot guide<br />

over on the Blog so be sure to check it out.<br />

last month, and I was chuffed<br />

to find a beautiful dress in my<br />

wardrobe I’d forgotten about. It<br />

was from Vivian of Holloway and<br />

it looked fantastic.<br />

I wore it to a Battle of Britain<br />

Dinner and I felt a million dollars<br />

in it. It’s a classic and is still<br />

available on their website.<br />

I also wore a dress from the<br />

Jessica Wright label at Sistaglam<br />

so thank you to them for sending<br />

me that, it was beautiful.<br />

I’ve had a huge reaction to my<br />

interview series over on my Blog<br />

with lots of women agreeing to<br />

be the focus each month.<br />

My Vivian of Holloway dress!<br />

It’s been brilliant chatting to all<br />

the amazing women out there,<br />

(and Pip)! So keep reading<br />

everyone.<br />

So, as the nights draw in and it<br />

gets colder, lets enjoy buying for<br />

the winter.<br />

As always, let me know if you<br />

need any help and I’ll be happy<br />

to suggest styles and retailers.<br />

Thank you to all the ladies who<br />

contact me it’s great to know<br />

I’ve been of help!<br />

WeddingAngel<br />

Choosing Your Wedding Cake<br />

BY LISA MARIE SMITH<br />

The main focus of most<br />

wedding receptions is<br />

the wedding cake.<br />

Not many people leave<br />

the reception before the<br />

cake is cut, as it is an<br />

important tradition.<br />

Your wedding cake will<br />

feature in a lot of wedding<br />

photographs, which you will<br />

have to look at for years<br />

to come. Thus, you should<br />

take some time to choose<br />

the perfect wedding cake.<br />

So here are my top tips to<br />

wedding cake perfection!<br />

STEP 1: START EARLY<br />

Your venue choice can really influence the aesthetic<br />

and design details of your cake: Delicate buttercream<br />

icing won’t withstand the heat as well as sturdier<br />

fondant at an outdoor summer wedding, for example,<br />

so once you’ve secured your location, start shopping<br />

around for your baker.<br />

STEP 2: FIND YOUR BAKER<br />

Word of mouth is the tried-and-true way to find a<br />

baker, but attending wedding fairs is another route.<br />

Couples have the opportunity to meet local bakers and<br />

see and sample cake without having to commit to a<br />

private consultation.<br />

STEP 3: MEET AND GREET<br />

Once you’ve narrowed your search to two or three<br />

bakers (or even The One), the cake journey begins!<br />

Before even thinking about red velvet vs. vanilla bean,<br />

your baker will need the nitty-gritty details such as<br />

wedding date, venue and estimated head count.<br />

22


WEDDING<br />

OCTOBER OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong> | <strong>2018</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #72 | #72 WEDDING<br />

STEP 4: CONSIDER THE COSTS<br />

The cost of a cake is determined<br />

by the number of servings needed<br />

and the complexity of the design.<br />

Sugar flowers can spike the costs<br />

because they are handcrafted, timeconsuming<br />

— and thus expensive.<br />

STEP 5: GET INSPIRED<br />

Your overall wedding style can<br />

kick-start the design process with<br />

your baker, but don’t stop there.<br />

Mood boards, images of cakes you<br />

love, your wedding colour palette,<br />

your dress — any and all of these<br />

elements will get the cake design<br />

wheels in motion.<br />

STEP 6: BE FEARLESS WITH<br />

FLAVOURS<br />

Some bakers charge extra for<br />

so-called premium flavours and<br />

fillings, others do not, so be sure to<br />

establish any cost upgrades at your<br />

tasting so you don’t get hit with<br />

surprise surcharges. I encourage<br />

people to push the flavour envelope.<br />

Why go with vanilla, chocolate<br />

or red velvet when there’s praline<br />

and hazelnut cake accented with<br />

chocolate mousse and a drizzle of<br />

caramel to consider?<br />

Your cake should be both beautiful<br />

and delicious: Don’t choose flavours<br />

you think everyone will like, choose<br />

the flavours you like. Remember, it’s<br />

your wedding and this is your cake.<br />

Until next time...<br />

Need a little help<br />

organising your wedding<br />

photography? Look<br />

no further! We ask<br />

multi award-winning<br />

photographer, Haleana<br />

Knights...<br />

Q: How do you make<br />

sure you meet a couple’s<br />

requirements?<br />

A: I always try and meet<br />

my couples before hand<br />

so that I can get to know<br />

what they like and dislike,<br />

what their vision of the day<br />

looks like and how they feel<br />

in front of the camera. I<br />

then encourage the couple<br />

to contact me as many<br />

times as they need to. We<br />

also meet again before<br />

the big day to firm up the<br />

itinerary details and tie up<br />

any loose ends. Some of the<br />

best weddings I have ever<br />

shot, have been as a result<br />

of open communications<br />

between me and the couple<br />

getting married. I love it<br />

when they feel inspired by<br />

our chats and are invested in<br />

getting the best shots of their<br />

day as possible.<br />

Q: How would you describe<br />

your style? Do you prefer<br />

candid or more traditional<br />

photos?<br />

A: I love them both for<br />

different reasons! I absolutely<br />

love disappearing into the<br />

background and capturing<br />

the moments as they happen,<br />

whether it’s the father’s<br />

reaction to his daughter in her<br />

wedding dress or the tears of<br />

laughter during the best man’s<br />

speech. Having said that, a<br />

majority of my couples ask<br />

for the group shots because<br />

they know that their parents or<br />

grandparents will love having<br />

these for the mantelpiece.<br />

My favourite part of the day<br />

is the stylised session where<br />

I steal the newlyweds away<br />

for a while to get some really<br />

beautiful pictures of them<br />

alone, together. If a couple tell<br />

me that they want an entirely<br />

documentary-style wedding<br />

with absolutely no posed<br />

photos, then that is what I will<br />

deliver and if a couple ask for<br />

mainly candid photography<br />

with a few traditional elements<br />

thrown in, I will deliver that<br />

too. So in a nutshell, I would<br />

say that I offer something<br />

in the middle, with a little<br />

flexibility thrown in.<br />

Q: Finally, what are your top<br />

tips for couple’s choosing a<br />

wedding photographer?<br />

A: Ask to see a selection of<br />

images throughout the day.<br />

It’s really important to see<br />

whether the photographer<br />

you’re interested in can<br />

handle all the different light<br />

situations. I’d also be sure that<br />

they are operating have the<br />

proper insurances, contracts<br />

and all the appropriate gear<br />

and equipment for your<br />

day. And last, but not least,<br />

make sure you meet your<br />

photographer face to face<br />

before booking and be sure<br />

that you get along! They will<br />

be shadowing you on one of<br />

the most important days of<br />

your life after all!<br />

Josh Kelly -<br />

The Future<br />

Looks Bright...<br />

OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong> | ISSUE #72<br />

BY RALPH OATES<br />

A series of articles which will feature boxing facts<br />

from both the past to the present...<br />

At the moment British boxing<br />

is in the fortunate position<br />

of having a host of talented<br />

fighters in each weight<br />

division all of whom look<br />

destined to challenge for<br />

a major title in the months<br />

to come. One outstanding<br />

performer who deserves a<br />

mention is Commonwealth<br />

and World Boxing Association<br />

International welterweight<br />

champion Josh Kelly.<br />

Sunderland born Kelly who<br />

is nicknamed ‘Pretty Boy’<br />

is undefeated in seven<br />

professional bouts and has<br />

shown the skill set even at this<br />

early stage to suggest that he<br />

is more than capable of winning<br />

a world championship in the<br />

fullness of time. Anything can<br />

of course happen in the fight<br />

game so nothing is definite but<br />

this boxer at the age of twenty<br />

four looks a little special.<br />

Josh made his professional<br />

debut at The SSE Hydro in<br />

Glasgow in Scotland on the<br />

15 April 2017 outpointing<br />

opponent Jay Byrne of<br />

Ireland over six rounds in an<br />

entertaining contest. Byrne<br />

dipped between the ropes to<br />

meet Kelly with a record of five<br />

bouts of which he won four<br />

and lost one. So Byrne was not<br />

an easy touch for Kelly’s first<br />

outing<br />

Kelly had a further four fights<br />

during 2017 winning them all<br />

inside the scheduled distance<br />

in impressive style. Then on<br />

the 31 March <strong>2018</strong> in just his<br />

sixth professional outing Kelly<br />

was matched with Mexican<br />

born Carlos Molina in a contest<br />

for the vacant World Boxing<br />

Association International<br />

welterweight title at the<br />

Principality Stadium, Cardiff in<br />

Wales. At first sight it looked<br />

as if this match may have been<br />

a little too ambitious for Kelly.<br />

Molina was a former holder<br />

of the International Boxing<br />

Federation World Superwelterweight<br />

championship and<br />

had participated in thirty eight<br />

bouts winning twenty eight<br />

losing eight with two drawn.<br />

On the night Kelly confirmed<br />

his potential when he boxed<br />

his way to a ten round point’s<br />

decision to defeat Molina and<br />

take the championship.<br />

Kelly did not rest on his laurels<br />

after the Molina victory he<br />

was back in the ring on the 16<br />

June <strong>2018</strong> the venue this time<br />

being the Metro Radio Arena in<br />

Newcastle Tyne and Wear. Kelly<br />

was to defend his newly won<br />

WBA International crown and<br />

also challenge Australian Kris<br />

George for the Commonwealth<br />

title. Once again this looked to<br />

be a difficult contest for the<br />

Briton George had a record<br />

of fifteen fights with just one<br />

defeat. Kelly once again lived<br />

up to expectations when he put<br />

in a superb performance which<br />

saw George retire in round<br />

seven of a bout scheduled for<br />

twelve.<br />

There is a great deal to get<br />

excited about when viewing<br />

the prospects of Kelly. However<br />

the welterweight division<br />

is a tough one with many<br />

outstanding performers so it<br />

would be sensible not to rush<br />

Kelly too quickly towards the<br />

elite. The wise approach would<br />

be to match Kelly carefully and<br />

intelligently for him to gain vital<br />

experience.<br />

Ideally the young hopeful can<br />

in the months to come defend<br />

his Commonwealth and WBA<br />

International belts and also<br />

target the British crown. If<br />

successful in these endeavours<br />

and there’s every reason to<br />

believe that he will be, he<br />

can then cast an eye on the<br />

European crown. This too is a<br />

title he can add to his collection<br />

of championships. For Josh<br />

Kelly the future looks bright.<br />

A new home, a new look...<br />

FOR DIPPLE & CONWAY OPTICIANS<br />

Independent Opticians,<br />

Dipple & Conway, has<br />

opened brand new premises<br />

at 12 Market Place, Diss.<br />

Opening on the 4 th September, the<br />

family-run business has invested<br />

more than £250,000 in the newlook<br />

branch, transforming a former<br />

vacant butcher’s shop into a cool and<br />

contemporary practice.<br />

With bright furnishings and a living<br />

wall, it offers customers a stylish and<br />

welcoming environment. While a<br />

brand new shopfront has helped to<br />

reinvigorate Diss high street.<br />

Dipple & Conway first opened in Diss<br />

in 2012, and has invested in the new<br />

premises so customers can continue<br />

to benefit from the highest standards of eye care, for many<br />

generations to come.<br />

Matthew Conway, great grandson of founder Thomas Conway,<br />

and director says: “Dipple & Conway has been established<br />

for more than 100 years with our first branch opening in 1916<br />

in Norwich. We’re very proud of our history and heritage,<br />

but we are always looking for ways to move the business on,<br />

offering the latest, most exciting eyewear designs, coupled with<br />

cutting edge optical equipment, including hospital-standard<br />

technology, such as a 3D OCT scanner.”<br />

“We’re thrilled with our new-look Diss branch. And with<br />

bigger premises, we can can offer more appointments, bring<br />

additional clinical services such as dry-eye clinics and take on<br />

more customers too.”<br />

The range of fashion-forward eyewear has also expanded: “We<br />

stock a great range of stylish glasses and sunglasses, sourced<br />

globally, and many exclusive to us in Norfolk or Suffolk. We<br />

take the time to help people to find the perfect frames, suited<br />

to their personal style and enhancing their confidence.”<br />

JAZZIE B<br />

We speak to Jazzie B about Soul II Soul’s 30 year anniversary...<br />

Iconic British band Soul II Soul will embark<br />

on a landmark tour of the UK in <strong>2018</strong> marking<br />

30 years of hugely influential success, paying<br />

tribute to their legendary debut album, ‘Club<br />

Classics Vol 1’.<br />

The double Grammy Award winning and<br />

five-time Brit Award nominated band will play<br />

12 dates in the UK in <strong>October</strong> and November<br />

<strong>2018</strong>, including a date at London’s Palladium,<br />

featuring a stunning production.<br />

member, Jazzie B, about the upcoming<br />

anniversary tour…<br />

R: How did you first get into music?<br />

As a kid really, I used to like listening to the<br />

radio. Growing up, three of my brothers had<br />

sound systems, so I guess that was a major<br />

influence. I was drawn into that, through<br />

things like the speakers and the smell of the<br />

equipment, the hustle and bustle of it all.<br />

With huge hits including ‘Keep On Movin’<br />

(which sold over a million copies in the US<br />

alone) and the UK number one single ‘Back To<br />

Life (However Do You Want Me)’, Soul II Soul<br />

progressed from being one of the leaders of<br />

the 1980’s warehouse<br />

scene to pioneering<br />

British black music<br />

around the world, and<br />

securing commercial<br />

success for themselves<br />

and the huge amount<br />

of artists they have<br />

influenced.<br />

During the course of<br />

their stellar career<br />

the band have sold over 10 million albums<br />

worldwide and main man Jazzie B was<br />

awarded an OBE for services to music in<br />

2008, as well as winning an Ivor Novello<br />

Award for Inspiration, as “the man who gave<br />

British black music a soul of its own”.<br />

Rachel Ducker catches up with founding<br />

R: What kind of music did you used to listen<br />

to growing up?<br />

I used to listen to a lot of folk music, which<br />

my parents listened to, and then a stable<br />

diet of reggae music, sprinkled<br />

in with a little bit of Engelbert<br />

Humperdinck.<br />

My mum was a great fan of Tom<br />

Jones, so I used to listened to him<br />

and obviously I had The Beatles<br />

albums.<br />

I guess for me, The Rolling Stones<br />

were the ones at the time, a bit<br />

of Jimmy Hendrix, and jazz was<br />

played around the place to, and then of<br />

course growing up Bennie and the Jets and<br />

Ziggy Stardust.<br />

R: Quite a range of tastes there?<br />

Yeah, it was an incredible time in the 60s and<br />

70s music wise; I mean TV had just started to<br />

explode, so for us as young people it was<br />

a big thing.<br />

for us and look what that turned out to be<br />

[laughs].<br />

I guess when we were younger our<br />

imaginations were so much wider because<br />

we didn’t have all of these references.<br />

R: I guess we are guilty of taking things<br />

for granted in this day and age?<br />

I believe so, it’s just so much faster, plus<br />

the most important thing about it was that<br />

people forget that my generation grew<br />

up in a class system. This is why we were<br />

always so different from the Americans;<br />

there was always a level of expectation<br />

R: How did Soul II Soul first form?<br />

We were a sound system, an<br />

amalgamation of music and fashion, that’s<br />

how we formed. The idea of Soul II Soul<br />

is that we were a band of sound system<br />

DJs, we wanted to be the biggest sound<br />

system in the world.<br />

So Virgin came along and so did Island<br />

Records, so we had a choice, and we<br />

decided to go with Virgin. We were quite<br />

bohemian and unusual and that’s how we<br />

came about.<br />

R: How did you come up with the name?<br />

Two of us, myself and Daddae, we were<br />

like Soul II Soul, before we were called<br />

Jah Rico, like any family your sort of<br />

dysfunctional, which is also part of your<br />

brilliance I guess.<br />

R: People will remember your songs<br />

Back to Life (However Do You Want<br />

Me) and Keep On Moving, back in 1988,<br />

what’s been the secret to your continued<br />

success?<br />

I don’t know [laughs] that’s one of the<br />

things with this game, there are no rules<br />

or anything like that, it ain’t what you do<br />

but the way that you do it!<br />

R: Well I have heard that somewhere<br />

before? [Laughs]<br />

How do you think Soul II Soul shows have<br />

changed over time?<br />

Well, three members have gone to the<br />

upper room, so that shows a few changes<br />

have had to be made, it doesn’t get<br />

anymore real than that does it? It’s all part<br />

of the journey.<br />

tour shortly; can you believe it’s been 30<br />

year?<br />

Course I can – I’ve got kids!<br />

Yeah, that’s a good reflection to have, it’s<br />

nice that I can come out again and dust off<br />

the old boots.<br />

R: What are you looking forward to the<br />

most?<br />

Seeing the whites of people’s eyes, we’ve<br />

been doing these shows now for thousands<br />

and thousands of people and you can’t see<br />

anything, so now we get to do things like<br />

this.<br />

It’s quite a self-indulged line of shows<br />

we’ve got lined up. They are going to be<br />

really intimate.<br />

R: That sounds exciting!<br />

During our peak we were big.<br />

So this time we look forward to seeing<br />

people who really want to be there, we<br />

want to be with more people who are<br />

really into this stuff, in a nice intimate place<br />

and for them to be there, that makes the<br />

mood, that makes the party because you<br />

come with that intention.<br />

You come to go back to life and to keep on<br />

moving because you’ve been missing it.<br />

I tell you what, as soon as that comes along<br />

I will let you know; I haven’t quite got there<br />

yet.<br />

R: After the tour – what else can we look<br />

forward to going into 2019? Are you busy<br />

working on other stuff?<br />

Ah yeah, loads but lets just take one step<br />

at a time and look forward to these shows.<br />

Let’s get these shows done and then we’ll<br />

have another chat.<br />

R: That sounds wonderful.<br />

Thank you so much for your time and I<br />

wish you all the success for the tour, not<br />

that you will need it by the sounds of<br />

things!<br />

I really appreciate you doing this thank you<br />

No Failure Only Feedback...<br />

When we don’t achieve something, or<br />

something hasn’t gone according to<br />

plan, for example you didn’t get the<br />

promotion you were after or achieve<br />

the grades you wanted.<br />

We tend to take it personally and say to ourselves<br />

that we’ve failed, but have we?<br />

I think we can all learn something from Edison,<br />

I know I certainly have, there is no failure, only<br />

feedback. If something doesn’t go our way, or we<br />

don’t achieve what we set out to do, it doesn’t<br />

mean failure. Learn from the experience to help<br />

you move forward and stop it from knocking your<br />

confidence.<br />

What Can I Learn?<br />

When we perceive ourselves to have “failed”<br />

it can affect our confidence and self-esteem,<br />

normally at times when we need a confidence<br />

boost rather than a knock.<br />

I have many clients, when looking back over<br />

their lives, beat themselves up because of<br />

past mistakes or decisions they made at the<br />

time.<br />

A scientist treats failure differently, good job or<br />

else we wouldn’t have half the things we do, like<br />

the light bulb. It took Edison over 1,000 attempts<br />

to create the lightbulb. A reporter asked Edison<br />

how it felt to fail one thousand times and Edison<br />

replied:<br />

“I didn’t fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an<br />

invention with 1,000 steps”.<br />

I point out to them, that at that time they didn’t<br />

have all the information that they have access<br />

to now, and they wouldn’t intentionally make a<br />

mistake.<br />

So, when looking back, say to yourself “what can<br />

I learn” rather than “I should have…” or “I could<br />

of have…”. Remember, there is no failure only<br />

feedback.<br />

EAGLE<br />

POSE<br />

(gah -rue-DAHS-anna)<br />

Benefits<br />

Strengthens and stretches the ankles and calves<br />

Stretches the thighs, hips, shoulders, and back<br />

Improves concentration<br />

Improves sense of balance<br />

Cautions:<br />

Students with knee injuries should avoid<br />

this pose, or perform only the leg position<br />

described in the Beginner’s Tip.<br />

How to try the pose:<br />

1. Stand in Tadasana. Bend your knees slightly, lift<br />

your left foot up and, balancing on your right foot,<br />

cross your left thigh over the right. Point your left<br />

toes toward the floor, press the foot back, and<br />

then hook the top of the foot behind the lower<br />

right calf. Balance on the right foot.<br />

2. Stretch your arms straight forward, parallel to<br />

the floor, and spread your scapulas wide across<br />

the back of your torso. Cross the arms in front<br />

of your torso so that the right arm is above the<br />

left, then bend your elbows. Snug the right elbow<br />

into the crook of the left, and raise the forearms<br />

perpendicular to the floor. The backs of your<br />

hands should be facing each other.<br />

3. Press the right hand to the right and the left<br />

hand to the left, so that the palms are now facing<br />

each other. The thumb of the right hand should<br />

pass in front of the little finger of the left. Now<br />

press the palms together (as much as is possible<br />

for you), lift your elbows up, and stretch the<br />

fingers toward the ceiling.<br />

4. Stay for 15 to 30 seconds, then unwind the<br />

legs and arms and stand in Tadasana again.<br />

Repeat for the same length of time with the arms<br />

and legs reversed.<br />

Beginner’s Tip:<br />

Beginners often find it difficult to wrap the<br />

arms around until the palms touch. Stretch your<br />

arms straight forward, parallel to the floor, while<br />

holding onto the ends of a strap. Follow the rest<br />

of the instructions stated in step 2 above and<br />

keep the strap taut between your hands.<br />

Beginners also find it difficult to hook the raisedleg<br />

foot behind the standing-leg calf, and then<br />

balance on the standing foot. As a short-term<br />

option cross the legs but, instead of hooking<br />

the raised foot and calf, press the big toe of the<br />

raised-leg foot against the floor to help maintain<br />

your balance.<br />

please attend a class or ask for a<br />

private lesson.<br />

The wines of<br />

Croatia<br />

Croatia with its boundary close to Italy and Bosnia etc has been making<br />

wine for millennia. Wine is popular in Croatia and is often consumed with<br />

meals. Most is white but there are some notable reds and roses.<br />

strict rules protecting the vineyards.<br />

In the 5th Century the Ottoman Turks imposed<br />

strict anti- alcohol laws but managed to continue<br />

making wine.<br />

BY ‘WINE BUFF’ FRED FISHER<br />

Like much of Eastern Europe, wine was made<br />

here well before the Romans and previous<br />

inhabitants like the Illyrians, living during the<br />

Bronze Age and Iron Age, grew grape vines.<br />

Some Dalmatian Islands dating back to Ancient<br />

Greek times made wine 2500 years ago. Greek<br />

settlers arrived in the 5th century BC.<br />

Under the Roman Empire production grew<br />

leading to exports to other parts of Europe.<br />

Over the years production expanded and by 1214<br />

quality control came about by the addition of<br />

In the 18th Century Croatia came under the<br />

control of the Habsburg Empire where wine<br />

flourished during the 19th and 20th Centuries.<br />

Phylloxera struck in 1874 but luckily Croatia was<br />

not so affected and their exports expanded.<br />

At the beginning of the 20th Century however<br />

Croatia succumbed to the bug. Many expert<br />

Croatian winemakers then fled to the New World,<br />

much to their benefit.<br />

With the creation of Yugoslavia and communist<br />

rule, private vineyards were discouraged and<br />

large co-operatives established. This led to<br />

quantity rather than quality. Croatia is now<br />

independent and creating very fine wine again.<br />

Climate and geography...<br />

Lying along the Adriatic Sea, the coastal<br />

vineyards have the benefit of the cooling effect<br />

of the sea and those inland find a hotter climate.<br />

Many areas along its coastline have many hours<br />

of sunlight, ideal for grape growing. Inland there<br />

are mountainous regions having cold winters and<br />

hot summers, plus enough rain to make grape<br />

growing successful. One other product coming<br />

from the area is oak, which is used for wine casks.<br />

Wine Styles...<br />

There are two distinct regions in Croatia<br />

producing wine. The Inland continental climate<br />

region in the North-East producing rich fruity<br />

white wines similar to Slovenian,<br />

Austrian and Hungarian wines. More<br />

individual wines are produced<br />

using local grape varieties<br />

laying along the coastal areas.<br />

Wine Regions...<br />

CONTINENTAL CROATIA<br />

This area stretches North-West<br />

to South-East along the Drava<br />

and Sava rivers with cold winters and<br />

hot summers. The best known area is probably<br />

Slavonia producing light, crisp, refreshing and<br />

slightly aromatic wine from the Grasevina grape.<br />

Other sub-regions number 6 in all.<br />

COASTAL CROATIA<br />

This region runs from Istria in the north to<br />

Dalmatia in the south. A more Mediterranean<br />

climate, long hot and dry summers and mild,<br />

short and wet winters. Great for wine production.<br />

Fruity dry whites from a variety of grapes. The<br />

grapes are mostly Malvasia but also the red<br />

Teran and Plavic Mali. The region is divided into 5<br />

parts including Istria, Croatian Coast and 3 parts<br />

of Dalmatia. After joining the EU they had to<br />

divide Croatia into 3 regions, Eastern Continental<br />

Croatia, Western Continental Croatia and Coastal<br />

Croatia. These were then also divided into their<br />

own sub-Regions<br />

Grape Varieties...<br />

Croatian grape variety names are difficult for<br />

us to understand and even though many classic<br />

grape varieties from the rest of Europe are used<br />

they stick by their indigenous varieties.<br />

Rightly so as they produce some extremely rich<br />

wines. Some such are Plavac Mali, Postup,<br />

Dingac and Zlatan Plavac.<br />

Indeed it was felt that the Zinfandel<br />

was descended from the Plavac Mali,<br />

but DNA testing has now proved<br />

that Plavac Mali is in fact a child<br />

of the true Zinfandel from Croatia<br />

called the Crljenak Kastelanski (Gulp).<br />

Also included in this discussion is that the<br />

Zinfandel is also the Primitivo, a popular and<br />

successful Italian grape.<br />

Following devastation caused by Phylloxera in<br />

the late 1800’s vines in Croatia have to be grafted<br />

onto American rootstock like almost the rest of<br />

the world, in order to survive.<br />

Although some of the grape varieties grown in<br />

Croatia can be confusing they produce some<br />

great wines and should be added to the vast pool<br />

of top varieties that we make our wine from.<br />

Conclusions...<br />

Trying to remember the names though is difficult, it took me long enough to learn of the<br />

Zinfandels true name but I enjoy it better now that I can pronounce it. Enjoy yet another<br />

adventure into the world of wine.<br />

Autumn<br />

Pumpkin Soup<br />

This velvety pumpkin soup recipe is<br />

great for Bonfire Night - it’s served<br />

with a splash of sherry in a hollowedout<br />

pumpkin...<br />

1. Cut the top off the pumpkin and set aside.<br />

Scoop out the inside. Using a sharp knife and<br />

a spoon, carefully hollow out the pumpkin,<br />

removing the flesh and setting aside. (Leave<br />

2cm/1in of flesh around the inside.)<br />

Ingredients<br />

• 1 x 4kg/8lb 13oz pumpkin<br />

• 125g/4oz butter<br />

• 2 medium onions, peeled, finely chopped<br />

2. Chop the scooped-out pumpkin flesh. Melt<br />

the butter in a large pan with a lid over a low<br />

heat and add the onions. Cook the onions<br />

gently for 10 minutes, until they are brown.<br />

• 1 cinnamon stick<br />

• freshly grated nutmeg<br />

3. Add the pumpkin flesh, the cinnamon and<br />

nutmeg, and season, to taste, with salt and<br />

freshly ground black pepper. Increase the heat<br />

to medium and cover with the lid. Cook for<br />

40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the<br />

pumpkin is cooked through. Add the stock<br />

and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat<br />

and allow to cool slightly. Transfer the soup to<br />

a food processor and blend until smooth.<br />

• salt and freshly ground black pepper<br />

• 1.7 litres/3 pints chicken stock<br />

(vegetarians may substitute vegetable stock)<br />

• 3 tablespoons sherry<br />

4. Return the soup to the pan and bring to a<br />

low simmer and cook for a further half an hour.<br />

45 minutes before eating, preheat the oven<br />

to 170C/335F/Gas 3. Pour the soup into the<br />

hollow pumpkin shell, add the sherry and<br />

stir to combine. Place the reserved pumpkin<br />

‘lid’ onto the pumpkin and place onto a large<br />

baking tray. Cook in the oven for about 45<br />

minutes, to bring the soup up to temperature.<br />

To serve, carefully remove from the oven and<br />

serve the soup in the pumpkin at the table.<br />

Ladle into bowls and serve.<br />

• Empty the pizza base mix into a bowl and stir<br />

in 100ml warm water. Mix to a soft dough, then<br />

tip out onto a lightly floured surface and knead<br />

for 5 minutes, or until smooth.<br />

• Roll out the dough to roughly 24cm in<br />

diameter. Transfer to a large, greased baking<br />

sheet and turn up the edge of the base for a<br />

crust. Leave to stand in a warm place for 10<br />

minutes.<br />

this Halloween...<br />

The perfect easy bake for a scary<br />

Halloween treat, this easy homemade<br />

pizza recipe is topped with gooey<br />

mozzarella ghosts, salami bats and black<br />

olive spiders.<br />

Simply double (or even triple) the<br />

quantities if you have a large gang of<br />

trick-or-treaters to feed.<br />

Ingredients<br />

• 200ml (1/3oz) passata<br />

• 1 tbsp olive oil<br />

• 1 x 145g pack pizza base mix<br />

• 4 salami slices, cut into bat shapes<br />

• 7 pitted black olives, halved<br />

• 125g (4oz) ball mozzarella, torn into pieces<br />

Method<br />

• Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C.<br />

Put the passata and olive oil in a pan and bring<br />

to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5<br />

minutes, or until thickened.<br />

• Meanwhile, thinly slice 8 olive halves<br />

lengthways into 4 to make 32 legs for the<br />

spider (each spider has eight). Dice two more<br />

olive halves to make eyes for the mozzarella<br />

ghosts.<br />

• Spread the passata over the base, allowing<br />

a 1cm (1/2in) border. Top with the salami and<br />

arrange the torn mozzarella in ghost shapes<br />

(with room to spread). Position the remaining<br />

olives, cut-side down, and arrange 4 spidery<br />

legs on either side.<br />

• Cook the pizza for 15-18 minutes, until<br />

bubbling and golden. Remove from the<br />

oven and leave to cool for 1 minute, before<br />

adding the reserved olive eyes to each melted<br />

mozzarella ghost. Serve immediately.<br />

THE IVY NORWICH<br />

BRASSERIE<br />

By Rachel Ducker<br />

Within the heart of Norwich,<br />

The Ivy Norwich Brasserie offers<br />

sophisticated and friendly allday<br />

dining to both residents and<br />

visitors alike.<br />

On London Street, the Brasserie is open seven<br />

days a week featuring an extensive all-day<br />

menu and a beautiful focal point bar.<br />

The Ivy brand is<br />

synonymous with<br />

high-quality food,<br />

exceptional service<br />

and stylish interiors,<br />

so when we learned<br />

that The Ivy<br />

Brasserie was due to open in Norwich, I could<br />

hardly contain my excitement.<br />

We had our first ‘sneak peek’ at the VIP press<br />

event, which took place at the beginning of<br />

August.<br />

The décor features eye-catching yet refined<br />

interiors designed by the acclaimed Martin<br />

Brudnizki Design Studio.<br />

I think I stood in silence for a few seconds<br />

when I entered the building; having never<br />

been to an Ivy Brasserie before, I didn’t expect<br />

it to be so beautiful.<br />

in, or just sip on a glass of something in the<br />

bar area.<br />

The signature green colour palette sits against<br />

striking leather banquettes, polished marble<br />

floors and bronzed antiques.<br />

“In a salute to the local area The<br />

Ivy offers locally sourced products”.<br />

Bright colourful prints mask the walls from<br />

floor to ceiling; its Art Nouveau styling<br />

gives a sense of grandeur and elegance, not<br />

forgetting the central focal point - the grand<br />

marble-topped bar glistening with shiny<br />

champagne glasses.<br />

After the launch, they invited back to<br />

experience The Ivy in all its glory.<br />

Whilst the decor is indeed something to shout<br />

about, it’s the food and drink selection that<br />

really is the star attraction. Here you can dine<br />

From Bure Gold and Wherry Amber Ale,<br />

brewed by Woodforde’s in Woodbastwick<br />

to Norfolk’s Boadicea Gin used to make the<br />

signature cocktails including the Iceni Martini<br />

and Felbrigg Gardens.<br />

In terms of food you can expect modern<br />

British classics for breakfast, weekend brunch,<br />

lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. Menus include<br />

signature dishes such as The Ivy Collection<br />

shepherd’s pie, a truffle chicken sandwich<br />

and grilled fish, as well as light and healthy<br />

brunch options, delicious afternoon teas<br />

It was a fun drink although my husband kept<br />

trying to steal my Candy Floss! Ladies beware!<br />

As we took our seats in the first floor<br />

lovely conversation with the<br />

smellier who helped us choose<br />

a lovely bottle of white<br />

wine to complement our<br />

meal, whilst the other<br />

waiter helped with food<br />

Whilst I made my allimportant<br />

decision, I treated myself to a<br />

delicious Candy Floss Fizz (Candy<br />

served the rice on the side with some<br />

coconut yoghurt, which I liked as I could<br />

decide on how much I wanted, all in all a<br />

very cute dish. Sam had the ‘Chargrilled<br />

Halloumi with Padron Peppers’ and a few<br />

side dishes; it looked delicious and made a<br />

nice change from the standard vegetarian<br />

Goats Cheese Risotto!<br />

For pudding, there was only one contender<br />

for me, the Chocolate Bomb - heaven in a<br />

dish. They poured a warm sauce over the<br />

hard case of chocolate; it melted before my<br />

eyes to reveal honeycomb pieces in vanilla<br />

We loved every moment of our evening here<br />

from the atmosphere, to service, to the food<br />

was fitting! The attention to detail throughout<br />

the entire restaurant is obvious – even the<br />

washrooms exude Gatsby era elegance, and as<br />

we all know, if the toilets are good, the rest is<br />

going to follow suite!<br />

IAN MCCULLOCH<br />

Rachel Ducker speaks exclusively to Echo & the Bunnymen’s,<br />

Ian McCulloch, about his time in the band, new album and upcoming tour...<br />

Bands rarely ever arrive as the full package.<br />

Some manage to achieve that status through<br />

a lot of effort and a bit of luck; often though,<br />

there’s a magical element that sits just out<br />

of reach. Echo & the Bunnymen were the full<br />

package – maybe the first band of my youth<br />

to achieve that.<br />

They had amazing songs<br />

and lyrics that provoked<br />

and inspired; stunning wit<br />

and a look that was just<br />

perfection. There was no<br />

weak link visually, no bad<br />

leather jackets or mullets.<br />

And they had the ambition<br />

and the confidence to<br />

attempt unconventional<br />

ideas, whether it was<br />

heading to Iceland to do<br />

photos or getting their fans<br />

to do a group cycle ride around Liverpool for<br />

A Crystal Day. There wasn’t one piece out of<br />

place. This was a band to believe in.<br />

As previously revealed, THE STARS, THE<br />

OCEANS & THE MOON sees the band return<br />

to their peerless back catalogue to reinterpret<br />

thirteen of their most beloved songs with<br />

‘strings and things’.<br />

decade spanning archive. Of the new versions,<br />

Ian McCulloch said, “I’m not doing this for<br />

anyone else. I’m doing it as it’s important to<br />

me to make the songs better. I have to do it”.<br />

The first track released from the album –<br />

SEVEN SEAS – is available now to stream,<br />

to download and as an instant grat with<br />

all album pre-orders via<br />

the artist store or iTunes.<br />

Originally a Top Twenty hit in<br />

1984, SEVEN SEAS was the<br />

third single from their classic<br />

fourth studio album, OCEAN<br />

RAIN.<br />

<strong>Bounce</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong>’s, Rachel<br />

Ducker, speaks to Ian<br />

McCulloch about the bands<br />

new album.<br />

R: Hi Ian, firstly I wondered how you first got<br />

into music?<br />

Growing up, I didn’t really live in a very<br />

musical household.<br />

I suppose I first got into music when I heard<br />

Bowie when I was 12 or 13 around the time<br />

Starman came out.<br />

The album also features two future classics<br />

– THE SOMNAMBULIST and HOW FAR.<br />

Recorded at The Dog House Studios with<br />

co-producer Andy Wright, ECHO & THE<br />

BUNNYMEN handpicked the selection of<br />

tracks for the album from their majestic, four-<br />

His voice was just like nothing I’d ever heard<br />

and when Starman played on the radio, it was<br />

like ‘wow’, there was just something in his<br />

voice.<br />

eventually it clicked and I said “we are going<br />

to be the best band in the world ever”!<br />

I knew when I was 13 what I wanted to do; I<br />

wanted to be Bowie and borrow his clothes<br />

that was my dream.<br />

So I was on the dole for about 18 months,<br />

in that time I had three job interviews, I<br />

remember one, there was a panel and they<br />

asked me what I thought the civil service was<br />

about and I didn’t have a sodding clue!<br />

He just looked at me with his mug of tea in<br />

disbelief and I looked at him in disbelief at<br />

his disbelief of what I had just said! I replied<br />

what’s the point of doing this if we are not<br />

going to be the best band in the world ever?<br />

R: How did you come up with the band<br />

name?<br />

During another interview someone called me<br />

out and said “you don’t want to be here do<br />

you” and I said “no”. At least I was honest!<br />

I was good at not getting jobs on purpose!<br />

To be fair, I knew what I was going to do and<br />

I would tell them “you’ll see me on the telly,<br />

I am going to be in the biggest band of all<br />

time!” without that self belief I wouldn’t have<br />

been where I am now. I always felt there was<br />

nothing else I wanted to do.<br />

I didn’t; I shared a flat with a guy named<br />

Paul. We called him Smelly Ellie, that was his<br />

nickname, he was on a teacher training course;<br />

he taught maths to kids.<br />

I said to him one day “we’ve got a gig this<br />

week” and he said “what are you called”,<br />

and I said “I haven’t got a clue”. So he wrote<br />

down about ten names and then Echo & the<br />

Bunnymen was one of them and I thought that<br />

sounds like us.<br />

R: Were you in any other bands before you<br />

formed Echo?<br />

There was a band called the Crucial Three, but<br />

it sounded so crap I would have to go and wait<br />

in the living room until practice was over, we<br />

were rubbish!<br />

R: How did you first meet your fellow band<br />

members?<br />

It was someone’s birthday, and I was at a bar<br />

in Liverpool, Will Sergeant was sitting at a<br />

table and he goes “hello” [laughs] I think he<br />

might have used his index finger to summon<br />

me, and he said “I heard you’re a great singer,”<br />

though I am not sure who he heard that from,<br />

and he asked me to go to his to play some<br />

At the time I thought we were like then men<br />

that married bunny girls. Smelly Ellie did smell<br />

and he did think of the name!<br />

R: Well you have to thank him for that at<br />

least!<br />

I did thank him!<br />

R: Your first album was released in 1980,<br />

what’s been the secret to your continued<br />

success? You’re still hear and you have your<br />

new album coming out…<br />

Washing your face kid, washing your face with<br />

salt water and not worrying too much!<br />

It was never about being on the front covers,<br />

even though I did like that, but then you’re<br />

worrying if it’s a bad photo or if you have<br />

spinach in your teeth.<br />

It was more about being a scouser for me,<br />

someone who likes footie and humour.<br />

I mean, I really do like the sound of my own<br />

voice, both for annoying people and for<br />

singing. It’s the only way I can tell my story<br />

and other people’s stories.<br />

It’s when someone goes “ah that’s exactly how<br />

I’m feeling”. So really that’s the main reason<br />

as to why I still want to be here and perhaps<br />

why I am.<br />

R: You have your new album out on 5 th<br />

<strong>October</strong> named The Stars, The Oceans and<br />

The Moon… can you tell us more about the<br />

album?<br />

I thought I know that song so well - I own that<br />

moon, it’s not the moon that everyone thinks,<br />

I own the “killer moon” and I sing it like I’m on<br />

that moon. Not look up, but looking across.<br />

songs, you forget to look at change.<br />

This is why I wanted to do this to face some of<br />

the old songs again.<br />

R: What’s the stand out feature about the<br />

album?<br />

It’s my voice more than anything; I am so lucky<br />

to have that voice.<br />

R: You are, I wish I had a voice like you.<br />

Danny from Embrace said that, he said “ah<br />

Mac, the greatest voice that this country has<br />

produced”… it’s a shame they are saddled<br />

with a name like Embrace, same as we are<br />

saddled with Echo & the Bunnymen, I hate<br />

saying it!<br />

F-cking syllables, too many, we should have<br />

been called something else. But anyway,<br />

that’s what I wanted to be when I was 13, the<br />

greatest voice.<br />

R: You’ve also got your tour coming up!<br />

I didn’t want to change it as a song but I<br />

wanted to surprise myself.<br />

Yeah, that’s going to be fantastic! The album<br />

will have been out then.<br />

Things have changed, I like the fact you can<br />

hear me breathing and the sound of my saliva;<br />

I wanted it to be more real.<br />

It’s about - be a statue or be a man or be a liar<br />

or be truthful.<br />

R: Well thanks so much for your time today<br />

and good luck with the album and the tour.<br />

Please send me over a copy of the magazine<br />

and pop along to one of the shows! I’ll buy you<br />

some French Martinis.<br />

I wanted to use this album to reflect – I didn’t<br />

like the singing on a lot of the early records. I<br />

pronounce my ‘e’s too much.<br />

R: I imagine as you grow older you change?<br />

Especially when you are writing.<br />

Sometimes it’s hard when you write new<br />

R: You know my poison that would be great.<br />

Thanks very much!<br />

The Power of a<br />

PICK ME UP<br />

So, sometimes everything just goes a<br />

bit wrong all at the same time doesn’t<br />

it? Work, health, relationships,<br />

yep, we’ve all been there...<br />

BY RUBY REED<br />

It happens to the<br />

best of us...<br />

And I got to have my very<br />

own meltdown just recently<br />

- a mixture of deadlines, the<br />

odd argument and a virus!<br />

But we won’t go into that…<br />

I will however say exactly how<br />

I managed to perk up.<br />

This was the magical power of<br />

a time out meet up with some<br />

nearest and dearest.<br />

It turns out a much needed<br />

catch up with a best friend was exactly what the<br />

doctor ordered.<br />

Maybe it was the environment, a relaxed brunch<br />

is always nice and we now have a new favourite<br />

location - always good to try something new!<br />

Maybe it was the listening ear… it was great to be<br />

reassured I wasn’t going mad.<br />

But it’s also good to remember another opinion can<br />

create a different perspective on something.<br />

It also helped that we moved on to discuss anything<br />

and everything else too.<br />

Not only does this take our mind off things, but it’s<br />

a case of remembering a lot else exists apart from<br />

what we are feeling down about.<br />

78


OCTOBER OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong> | <strong>2018</strong> ISSUE | ISSUE #72 | #72 LIFESTYLE<br />

A good friend will relate to<br />

you, and remind you you’re<br />

not alone.<br />

So whether it’s a cosy<br />

brunch, peaceful<br />

walkabout, movie night or<br />

retail therapy session- call<br />

on a friend.<br />

Take the time to reevaluate<br />

and recharge!<br />

At those moments when<br />

you feel like you have<br />

the least energy to pick<br />

yourself up and arrange a<br />

meet up - do it. Just do it.<br />

In just three hours I had<br />

transformed from teary,<br />

fed up and feeling sorry<br />

for myself to ready for a whole new week<br />

and its challenges.<br />

Onwards and upwards as they say!<br />

OCTOBER OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong> | ISSUE <strong>2018</strong> | #72 ISSUE | #72 HISTORY<br />

Hotel de Paris<br />

Cromer...<br />

The hotel sits on top<br />

of the cliffs looking<br />

down on Cromer’s<br />

Victorian pier. By<br />

the end of the 1700s<br />

there were under 700<br />

occupants’ in Cromer<br />

along with three<br />

public houses, the<br />

King’s Head, the New<br />

Inn and the Red Lion.<br />

There was a hotel of which<br />

the name is a distant memory,<br />

but it was owned by Mrs<br />

Sanderson. The Hotel de Paris<br />

was built on land that had at<br />

one stage been a large home<br />

owned by Lord Suffield.<br />

The property and the land<br />

were purchased by Pierre le<br />

Françoise who at a young age<br />

was brought to England by his<br />

aristocratic father Baron del<br />

Barr after escaping the French<br />

Revolution. Hotel de Paris<br />

became a success and Pierre<br />

passed away in 1841 and is<br />

buried in the parish church. His<br />

widow stayed there until 1845<br />

and then it was sold to local<br />

businessmen Henry Jarvis and<br />

both he and his son Alex were<br />

very successful in running the<br />

hotel and built a third floor.<br />

By the time Cromer had a train<br />

station built in 1887 the town<br />

grew in size.<br />

Many of the other hotel’s<br />

closed and Alex Jarvis saw<br />

a great opportunity to build<br />

a new hotel on the site and<br />

employed the services of the<br />

great architect George Skipper.<br />

Skipper chose to incorporate<br />

some of the original style<br />

for the hotel and added the<br />

designs of the properties of<br />

nearby Albert House. Building<br />

was undertaken by J Smith<br />

of Norwich who would later<br />

become the president of the<br />

Norwich Master Builders.<br />

Advised by his doctor in 1892<br />

to stay in Norfolk due to the<br />

pure air, Oscar Wilde rented<br />

a farmhouse in the area<br />

and also stayed at the hotel<br />

where he wrote ‘A Women<br />

of No Importance’, where<br />

he probably came up with<br />

the character name of ‘Lady<br />

Hunstanton’. Lord Alfred<br />

Douglas (Bosie) also joined<br />

Wilde but departed early on<br />

hearing that Mrs Wilde was to<br />

join her husband.<br />

1901 saw Arthur Conan Doyle<br />

recuperating in Cromer from<br />

enteric fever and staying at the<br />

hotel enjoying local stories of<br />

the legend of ‘Black Shuck’.<br />

Doyle moved the location to<br />

Dartmoor and chose the title<br />

‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’.<br />

In archives of the Register for<br />

Aliens for the hotel show the<br />

years 1919 and 1920 where the<br />

register was signed by many<br />

foreign guests even though a<br />

high percentage lived in Britain.<br />

1961 saw the Jarvis family sell<br />

the hotel to Norwich builder<br />

Mr Bush who did much work<br />

on the hotel to bring it up to<br />

date. Mr Bush died in 1972<br />

and the hotel was sold to a<br />

London based company. It has<br />

been a listed Grade II building<br />

since 1977 and is a part of Alfa<br />

Travel’s Leisureplex Group.<br />

During a recent photoshoot,<br />

model Nakita Ramos posed<br />

outside the hotel and a<br />

photo showed a strange glow<br />

by Nakita’s face. Further<br />

developments showed a<br />

strange face looking down<br />

from one of the hotel<br />

windows.<br />

This really WORKS...<br />

This Works® - recommended by Victoria Beckham...<br />

When you hear of products claiming all<br />

the amazing things they are, making them<br />

sound like some sort of a magic potion,<br />

you wouldn’t be blamed to think, does it<br />

really do all of that?<br />

Well, to quote Victoria Beckham ‘This does<br />

work’ about ‘This Works®’ in ‘Transit<br />

Camera Close Up’.<br />

It is a mask, moisturiser and<br />

primer all in one. Never has<br />

my make up stayed on as<br />

flawlessly as when using<br />

this! You can use it around<br />

your eye area, you can even<br />

feel your skin tightening and<br />

lifting.<br />

After using it my skin is glowing, my tone<br />

has evened out, looks plump, hydrated<br />

and youthful. This is a miracle product that<br />

actually does work!<br />

Now, I know you must be thinking, Victoria<br />

Beckham loves it, well it will be stupid<br />

amounts of money… your wrong! It’s<br />

available for just £30! I have not met one<br />

person yet who doesn’t love this once they<br />

tried it.<br />

The other piece of advice to good skin I<br />

will give is to get a good nights sleep!<br />

‘This Works®’ Sleep Plus Pillow spray is a<br />

fast acting natural remedy to help restore<br />

your normal sleep pattern.<br />

It was tested on 200 people with<br />

sleep problems and a massive 89%<br />

of ex-prescription drug uses said<br />

they would use sleep plus instead<br />

of prescriptions! A massive 100%<br />

said they would recommend it.<br />

This product has changed my life!<br />

Remember, good skin starts with a<br />

good nights sleep.<br />

Why a wrap?... lumafirm ®<br />

Body wraps are the perfect body<br />

‘pick-me-up’, and they are not just<br />

for summer.<br />

As we start to move deeper into Autumn and<br />

towards winter, skin needs intense hydration.<br />

We tend to focus on the face rather than<br />

the body, and that is the area most often<br />

neglected and in need of some TLC.<br />

Having a wrap is not often a first choice when<br />

we visit a spa/salon. Usually the client chooses<br />

something more traditional such as a facial or<br />

massage, however think of a wrap as a facial<br />

for the body.<br />

It can come across as a slightly<br />

intimidating treatment to have,<br />

as it does involve wearing a pair<br />

of paper knickers, however, your<br />

modesty is protected and the<br />

therapist will keep you covered<br />

when necessary throughout<br />

the treatment. There are many<br />

benefits when it comes to<br />

having a wrap, which do outweigh the paper<br />

knickers!<br />

Skin will look and feel nourished, smoother,<br />

toned and, with specific detox wraps, lose<br />

a few inches too. Having a wrap shouldn’t<br />

be intimidating, it’s a wonderful relaxing<br />

experience offering something for all body<br />

types. Exfoliation, massage and hydrating<br />

moisturisers all combine to deliver highlyvisible<br />

results.<br />

At SK, all the wrap treatments are from the<br />

world-renowned Pevonia range, the most<br />

popular being the lumafirm® Firm & Glow Body<br />

Wrap.<br />

This is enriched with 26 dynamic ingredients<br />

including an exclusive combination of<br />

anti-ageing extracts; the latest in peptides,<br />

and amazing liposomic technology. Deeply<br />

repairing, hydrating, smoothing and de-ageing,<br />

what is not to love about this wrap?!<br />

As with all Pevonia products and<br />

spa treatments, the body wraps<br />

are eco-friendly, ethically created<br />

and free from alcohol, SLS, urea,<br />

formaldehyde, artificial fragrances,<br />

synthetic dyes, mineral oil and<br />

parabens.<br />

Every moment of this sensual spa<br />

wrap is comfortingly natural and<br />

designed with the health of your skin and the<br />

environment in mind.<br />

Why not try one sooner rather than later? If<br />

you book a lumafirm® Lift & Glow facial, you<br />

get the wrap for free. We promise, once you<br />

have experienced it and seen the results, you<br />

will most definitely want more.<br />

Contact our spa reception team to find out more about the lumafirm® wrap and SK’s<br />

The Mystery Product We May Be Overlooking...<br />

Toner is the mystery product in our skincare<br />

routine that many people don’t really know why<br />

they should use.<br />

Here we show you what toner is, how it can help<br />

your skin and what is available so that you can<br />

make an informed decision.<br />

What is toner?<br />

Toner is a fast penetrating astringent liquid<br />

that when applied causes the contraction<br />

of skin cells and pores generally used to<br />

reduce the overproduction of oil in the<br />

skin and improve its condition.<br />

Often used as part of a skincare routine and<br />

an additional cleansing step before a<br />

moisturiser is applied.<br />

What are the benefits?<br />

A thorough cleanse with a good toner helps to<br />

• Target breakouts<br />

• Remove daily dirt and grime, including make up<br />

• Remove dead skin cells<br />

• Tighten pores<br />

• Restore the balance of skins PH level<br />

• Reduce the level of excess oil on the skin<br />

• Some may mattify the skin<br />

A good toner will cleanse the skin to allow nutrient<br />

rich ingredients to nourish the skin.<br />

Top toner tip – Sweep toner across your face,<br />

neck and décolletage then leave the toner to<br />

soak in without touching the skin before applying<br />

moisturiser or any other products.<br />

Which toner should I use?<br />

Applying Toner<br />

Skincare is advancing all the time and there are so many<br />

now available. I’ll use the Urban Veda range as an example.<br />

They have formulated 4 different toners to suit your<br />

specific skin type; Oil prone skin, sensitive skin, dull or dry<br />

skin and mature skin. So there is a toner to suit you.<br />

The purifying toner is designed for oil prone skin and will<br />

detoxify congested skin as its an antibacterial, clarifying<br />

toner which will give you a refreshed, clear complexion.<br />

Botanical extracts helps to mattify shiny t-zones and<br />

reduce the appearance of spots, balancing sebum<br />

production.<br />

The soothing toner helps to clarify and refresh sensitive<br />

skin while locking in moisture and gently cleansing without<br />

altering the skin’s protective hydrolipidic film. Using myrrh<br />

which relieves skin conditions such as eczema, calming<br />

sandalwood, cooling aloe vera and skin tone-improving<br />

orange.<br />

There are a couple of methods to applying<br />

toner, some like to splash on the toner and<br />

dab into the skin whereas others prefer to<br />

apply toner with a cotton pad. Personally<br />

the latter is my preference so that the toner<br />

can remove any residue from the cleanser<br />

easily.<br />

Remember to apply toner to your face,<br />

neck and décolletage both morning and<br />

night for long term results. The night time<br />

application will complete the cleansing<br />

of the skin, ensuring you sleep with clean<br />

skin. In the morning it will remove sebum<br />

produced during the night and balance<br />

your skin’s pH. Written by Sarah Gare.<br />

The radiance toner uses a complexion-enhancing<br />

hydrating formula to remove all traces of makeup and<br />

remaining cleanser while it balances the pH level of your<br />

skin. It is particularly beneficial to dry, dehydrated and<br />

dull complexions. It’s also great for balancing skin tone,<br />

including those struggling with hyper pigmentation.<br />

The reviving Hydrating toner is designed to revitalise and<br />

refresh tired and mature skin by to removing all traces of<br />

cleanser, locking in moisture and balancing the pH level of<br />

the skin. Enriched with bio oils to improve elasticity and<br />

restore suppleness. Gently removing impurities and dulling<br />

debris with clarifying flower waters, fortified with vitamins<br />

and plant extracts to help reduce the appearance of scars<br />

and soothe dry skin.<br />

When should I use toner?<br />

Often there is a time limit for how long to keep a product<br />

on your skin for best results and toner is no different. It is<br />

said that you should apply a toner no later than a minute<br />

after you have cleansed your skin.<br />

I know that sounds very precise but it is scientifically<br />

proven that most ingredients penetrate the skin better<br />

when it is wet.<br />

FREYA ROY<br />

Neo-Soul/Nu-Jazz artist, with the vision to change the perception of<br />

women in music, calls out for support to crowd fund debut album...<br />

Described my Blues Matters<br />

<strong>Magazine</strong> as ‘A talented young<br />

performer making a lot of people<br />

sit up’, Norwich-based Freya Roy is<br />

about to record her debut album,<br />

exploring jazz, neo-soul, R&B and<br />

hip-hop.<br />

A recent graduate<br />

from Leeds College of<br />

Music, studying Jazz<br />

Composition and Music<br />

Production, Roy has<br />

previously released 2<br />

independent EPs under<br />

her label, FCR Music, as<br />

well as a documentary<br />

exploring the issues<br />

faced by women and<br />

minorities in the music and creative<br />

industries.<br />

Fortunate to receive funding from Leeds<br />

College of Music’s Artist Development<br />

Scheme, Roy can begin to work with a top<br />

mix engineer, Dom Howard (Submotion<br />

Orchestra/Ruckspin) and top UK jazz<br />

musicians.<br />

Freya expresses, “My mission is to grow<br />

my label, FCR Music, as a platform that<br />

works to inspire and empower industry<br />

minorities.”<br />

“Pushing forward a message that is<br />

prevalent within this album: to break the<br />

persistent gender stereotype within music<br />

and the creative industries, pushing for the<br />

destruction of the hidden<br />

barriers faced by women and<br />

LGBTQ+ artists, particularly<br />

within production, jazz and<br />

its sister genres”.<br />

“I will be truly happy if I can<br />

achieve this goal and present<br />

to you all my best work yet.<br />

Even as little as a few pounds<br />

from backers will help push<br />

me towards my £1k goal.”<br />

Find out more and help fund this project<br />

by making a contribution or pre-ordering<br />

the album now on digital, CD and vinyl:<br />

http://igg.me/at/freyaroy<br />

However, this is only enough to get her half<br />

way in the recording process.<br />

This is a call out from your generosity at<br />

home to back Freya’s campaign to raise<br />

£1k before November 15 th .<br />

THE AUTUMN CHILL SETS IN<br />

BY KATE LINES<br />

Kates Top Tip : It’s your last chance to trim<br />

deciduous hedges to keep them looking tidy<br />

over the winter<br />

Now that autumn has arrived, grass<br />

grows much slower so there’s no<br />

need to cut your lawn.<br />

If however it is mild and you need to mow,<br />

change your mower to a higher cut. The lawn<br />

is particularly susceptible to the damage of the<br />

larvae of the daddy longlegs at this time of the<br />

year, they eat the roots of the grass. Use a leather<br />

jacket killer to prevent extensive damage.<br />

Planting<br />

<strong>October</strong> is an excellent time to plant trees, shrubs<br />

and perennials, the soil is warm enough to give<br />

them a good start before winter begins. It is also a<br />

good time to divide perennials that have become<br />

too large. Lift the plant without damaging the roots<br />

and pull the young parts away from the old plant.<br />

They can then be replanted. Plant winter flowering<br />

plants in the border such as ornamental cabbage or<br />

pansies. Bulbs can also be planted in borders or pots.<br />

Indoors<br />

You can have flowering plants as early as December<br />

if you plant tulips or hyacinths so that the tops are<br />

level with the soil. Crocus need to be planted a few<br />

centimetres deeper and narcissi should protrude<br />

slightly above the soil. Place the bowls or pots in the<br />

cool (12deg) for about 8 weeks.<br />

FENCING CLUB<br />

BY ROSS “ACTION MAN” WISHART<br />

Fencing is one of only fivr sports<br />

that has featured in every modern<br />

Olympic Games since Athens<br />

1896. it’s exciting, fast-paced,<br />

swashbuckling action has always<br />

enthralled me even though I had no<br />

experience nor understanding of<br />

the rules.<br />

Based at the County Upper School, Bury<br />

St Edmunds (IP32 6RF), they meet every<br />

Tuesday evening from 7pm.<br />

Now Action Man is normally ready to be<br />

thrust (no pun intended), into the deep<br />

end however on this occasion I didn’t<br />

have the equipment but thankfully the<br />

club has plenty of kit available.<br />

This is where the workout began because<br />

there are many layers and pieces of<br />

apparatus required, the body wire runs<br />

under the clothing connecting to your<br />

weapon for scoring, the plastron is a one<br />

armed garment worn under the jacket<br />

on your sword arm for extra protection,<br />

Breeches and long socks then there’s the<br />

jacket and Lame (metal conductive jacket<br />

for scoring) and finally the gloves and all<br />

important mask.<br />

Fully decked out and ready to go Owen<br />

ran me through some movements.<br />

Firstly the footwork, very similar to boxing<br />

(as featured in last month’s <strong>Bounce</strong>),<br />

with a slight squat your lead foot in front<br />

at all times you shuffle forwards and<br />

backwards, little sidewards movements<br />

114


OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong> | ISSUE #72<br />

SPORT<br />

as the “piste” (playing area) is no more<br />

that 2 metres wide. Then we moved on to<br />

our swordsmanship, the “lunge” is your<br />

attack where your thrust<br />

your weapon and lunge with<br />

your front leg towards your<br />

opponent.<br />

The “parry” is to push your<br />

opponent’s blade away from<br />

you and a combination of<br />

the two where you defend<br />

an attack and then a counter<br />

is a parry-reposte (French for respond).<br />

We were practicing the foil discipline<br />

where just the torso is the target area<br />

(Saber - upper body including arms and<br />

face, Epee - whole body) if both swords<br />

strike simultaneously the point is awarded<br />

to the aggressor under the “right of<br />

way” law unless as a defender you have<br />

successfully parry-reposte, hence the need<br />

for a referee. Now, time to put my new<br />

skills to the test, many of which completely<br />

escaped me when someone ran at me<br />

with a sword!<br />

However, I was able to gain<br />

some composure and get the<br />

immensely satisfying feeling of a<br />

strike or “touch” occasionally.<br />

The whole evening was great fun and<br />

I highly recommend that anyone who<br />

has contemplated giving Fencing a go to<br />

get in touch with the Bury St Edmunds<br />

Fencing Club via their Facebook page and<br />

pay them a visit.<br />

Action Man says: Undecided? Get<br />

off the fence! Go fence with Bury<br />

St Edmunds Fencing Club.<br />

IN THE SPOTLIGHT...<br />

CLARE FREE<br />

www.clarefree.co.uk<br />

MUSIC<br />

Clare Free is considered by many<br />

to be the finest female blues<br />

guitarist/vocalists in the UK today.<br />

With two internationally acclaimed albums,<br />

numerous international tours, international<br />

press coverage and airplay on stations all over<br />

the world there is good reason why Clare is so<br />

highly regarded.<br />

Multi award nominated in The British Blues<br />

Awards, The People’s Music Awards and winner<br />

of the WRC ‘Best Acoustic Performance’ Clare<br />

is a passionate songwriter.<br />

In the autumn of <strong>2018</strong> Clare returns to the<br />

studio to record her third electric album with<br />

Craig Bacon on Drums (Gloria Gaynor/Avril<br />

Lavigne etc) and Jimmi Clarke on bass (Gloria<br />

Gaynor/ Bjorn Again/Pee Wee Ellis etc.)<br />

Clare served her time with bands including<br />

Misdemeanor (With Matt Schofield, Gini<br />

Hobson, Maurice McElroy and Constance<br />

Redgrave of Spikedriver fame) she guested<br />

with Larry Garner and joined Dana Gillespie<br />

on two trips, one to India and the other to be<br />

the opening act at the Mustique Blues Festival<br />

every night for three weeks. Later Clare joined<br />

the band 99lbs. Then, having finally made the<br />

decision to go it alone, she released her debut<br />

album “Be Who You Are,” in February 2010. The<br />

self-penned mixture of rock, country and blues<br />

propelled her into the limelight with excellent<br />

reviews in the UK and the USA.<br />

In September 2010, she released the live EP<br />

“How It Is,” a four track CD of Clare’s own<br />

songs. It also received rave reviews and the<br />

limited edition copies sold out quickly. All four<br />

tracks from the EP reached the blues top ten<br />

with the international distributor CD Baby in the<br />

same week. One track (Funky Mama’s Kitchen<br />

Blues) reached the final in both the British Blues<br />

Awards (Kevin Thorpe Award for the Best New UK<br />

Blues Song) and the People’s Music Awards (Best<br />

Pop/Rock Song) She won the WRC Award “Best<br />

Acoustic Performance of 2011” and 2012 saw her<br />

nominated for Best Female Vocalist in the British<br />

Blues Awards.<br />

In February 2012, Clare released her second album<br />

“Dust and Bones”, again all tracks were written by<br />

Clare and the album received excellent reviews in<br />

the press in the UK, Europe and the USA. The next<br />

three years saw Clare tour extensively playing up<br />

to 100 dates a year both solo and with her band in<br />

the UK and Northern Europe.<br />

In September 2015 Clare released the single<br />

‘Sniper Fire’ which, again, saw excellent reviews in<br />

the press.Then, in November 2015, Clare and her<br />

husband David, welcomed their third baby. Clare<br />

started gigging again in July 2017 and her gig<br />

diary is very busy once again.<br />

Clare has had her music played on BBC Radio<br />

2 and a host of online radio stations all over the<br />

world play her tracks regularly. She has been<br />

featured in Guitar and Bass <strong>Magazine</strong>, PlayMusic<br />

<strong>Magazine</strong>, Gear <strong>Magazine</strong>, Blues in Britain, Blues<br />

Matters, Classic Rock Blues, Blue Monday Monthly<br />

(USA), Blues News Norway, Guitar International<br />

<strong>Magazine</strong> and more. On top of this she’s made<br />

countless live radio appearances.<br />

Recently she has was made the patron of a new<br />

venue, The 61, in Lixhe, Belgium. For a more<br />

Guitars, Cort Acoustic Guitars, Twinstomp Effects,<br />

Archie’s<br />

Adventures<br />

ROAD TRIP TO YORKSHIRE...<br />

My adventures have been extra<br />

special this month, as I have made a<br />

new best bud called Murphy.<br />

He’s a Border Collie – they say they are the most<br />

intelligent of dogs (and have loads of energy),<br />

they may be right as I just couldn’t keep up with<br />

him, especially with my bloomin’ little legs. Uff!<br />

Luckily, Murph and me hit it off straight away,<br />

(even though I kept trying to eat his food, he<br />

seemed to have a forgiving spirit). If you are<br />

planning to introduce your doggy pals here are a<br />

few of my top tips to help along the way:<br />

Have the dogs meet on their leads…<br />

Keep this meeting on neutral territory, (in my<br />

case a new house we were visiting). Have both<br />

dogs on-lead. Take the dogs for a walk together,<br />

keeping 10 feet between them so that they<br />

can’t greet each other or stare. The idea is to<br />

acclimate them to each other’s presence without<br />

causing tension.<br />

prevent fighting and injuries, and to prevent your<br />

new dog from developing behaviour like chewing<br />

and house soiling (major tell-off)!<br />

Work to prevent conflict…<br />

While dogs can settle minor disputes with<br />

each other (such as growling the other off of<br />

a toy or their own food bowl - yep my bad),<br />

they shouldn’t be limiting each other’s access<br />

to you, your family or common areas of the<br />

home. Reward polite behavior and manage<br />

the environment to prevent conflicts from<br />

developing.<br />

I can’t wait to see Murphy again, hopefully in the<br />

not to distant future!<br />

Follow me on Insta @official_archies_<br />

adventures. You can also keep up to date with<br />

my antics on Twitter @bouncearchie.<br />

Let them get to know each other slowly and<br />

carefully…<br />

Don’t rush it, us dogs will find our own way to<br />

work things out but this may take patience!<br />

Keep the dogs separate while you are away…<br />

Either in separate rooms or crates. This is both to<br />
