Summer didn’t get off to the best start this year and for a while it felt like we were living in ‘Monsoon June!’. Now the sunshine is finally upon us let’s hope it will last at least a good month or so. I love the school holidays for the simple reason that I get to enjoy a lot more time with the children! Alverstoke, Lee on the Solent and Stubbington are fantastic places to live, especially at this time of year and there are plenty of places to explore and things to do that don’t cost the earth! We have already managed to get to the Stokes Bay Splash Park a couple of times and enjoyed a ‘chippy tea’ on the beach. What a fantastic, free facility this is and so we are super excited to see what the new Splash Park in Lee on Solent will be like. It is due to be ready in time for the summer holidays, so I will be sure to give you a review next month! Six weeks may feel like a lot of time to fill, so if you are looking for some new ideas of what to do or where to visit, check out ‘Mum’s the Word’ on page 12. After some great feedback last year, I have put together another list of ideas. Next month will be a ‘Back to School’ guide, if you have any tips you would like to share with fellow parents, I’d love to hear them! Although August is a month of holidays and hopefully some relaxing, it is also a planning month in our house as September is a big Birthday month for us. Our youngest will be turning 4 and has asked for a ‘hot dog’ party (any ideas greatly appreciated), my husband will be turning 41, but the big one this year is my Mum’s 60th! Of course she doesn’t want a fuss but we will certainly be celebrating! Enjoy the sunshine and keep smiling!

Mum’s the Word This months ‘Mum’s The Word ‘ is a ‘Summer Special’ containing lots of ideas, events and clubs to keep the children entertained over the summer holidays!

The great outdoors and local places to visit... Visit the Park…...there are plenty of parks in the local area and the best thing is they are FREE! In Gosport our favourite is the play and splash park at Stokes Bay. The NEW Lee on Solent Splash Park will open soon too! Not only can you enjoy wet and dry play but you can also visit the beach! In Stubbington we love the park found on the recreation ground behind the library and we always pop to Costa to grab a drink and treat before heading there! Explore nature…...visit Gosport’s wildlife haven, The Alver Valley Country Park. Look out for all sorts of flowers, birds and butterflies and if you are really lucky you may even see the odd barn owl or water vole. Cycle, walk or run and in the late summer you can even enjoy a spot of blackberry picking. As well as visiting all the different wild grounds, lakes and bridges there is an adventure playground and BMX track for all to use. This is a perfect spot for Geocaching! Little Woodham, living history village…...this 17th century village situated off Howe Road in Rowner allows you to step inside the pages of history books. Open the doors of real homes and immerse yourself in the everyday life of a small village. Meet the seamstress, potter and blacksmith or listen to a mother telling tales of faeries to her children. A unique and educational experience which so many local people are yet to discover. Visit www.littlewoodham.org.uk for further information and prices. Museums…...in this area there are plenty of museums to explore. Many cost a few pounds to enter but generally kids under 5 are free (call ahead or check the websites). Locally there is the Hovercraft Museum, Diving Museum, Explosion and the Royal Navy Submarine museum and a little further away there is Fort Nelson and the D-Day Museum. Garden Centres and Aquatics…...involve the kids with the gardening, you can get some jobs done and they will enjoy helping out. Show them how to weed, plant and sweep. Why not plan a trip to a Garden Centre such as Garsons in Titchfield, there’s a lovely café and a Reptile and Aquatics Centre to explore or if you pop into Maidenhead Aquatics in Gosport you can feed the Koi Carp for £1! Libaries......we are lucky enough to have a few libaries within a good distance,

many of which host weekly activities and events for children, espcially over the holidays. Gosport Discovery Centre seems to be ‘nailing’ summer this year with a jam packed schedule, from storytimes to ‘mini makes’, (check websites or contact them directly for details). Don’t forget the Summer Reading Challenge!

St Faith’s I first wrote about the ‘Friends of St Faith’s’ in 2016, when Colin Dixon was running the group. Soon after the article was published Colin retired and for a while the future of the group seemed uncertain, until Tim Austin (pictured) appeared. Tim (one-time teacher, naval officer and business consultant) was not a committed churchgoer but loved the building and was passionately keen to see it preserved for prosperity. The present building, opened in 1933, was designed by two eminent architects, John Seely and Paul Paget (later to become Chief Surveyor of St Paul’s Cathedral). The design, which was afterwards adopted by several London churches, was unique at the time for being the first church to be constructed on a series of catenary arches. Quite stunning in appearance and grandeur they have attracted the admiration of many first-time visitors. These and subsequent additions, including the Lowry and Bulson Halls which provide a venue for numerous community activities, make the church a valuable resource for everyone in Lee and a place worth preserving.

Friends........of St Faith’s Fond of the saying that ‘God helps those who help themselves,’ Tim’s first aim was to advertise the group’s existence as widely as possible and encourage those who value the buildings and grounds, churchgoers or not, to become involved. His next task was to establish how best the ‘friends’ could help. In the past, as well as raising money, they have taken an active part in mowing laws and doing practical jobs themselves. With so much money needed to maintain and improve the building, Tim decided that the emphasis should be solely on raising money for experts to do the work and to do this by organising community events. He also created a twice-yearly newsletter to explain how the money was being used. His aim is to raise and spend as much as possible and to keep reserves to a minimum, this he’s already started doing to great effect. Stalls at the summer and Christmas Fayres raised enough money with existing reserves to pay for dangerous and encroaching trees to be sorted along with repairs to broken drains and leaking windows. A successful Burns’ Night celebration raised nearly £400 and several events are planned for the coming year. These include two Quiz Nights (both in the Bulson Hall, one on 30th March and another on 30th November both starting at 7.30 pm), a Fashion Show (date TBC) and a Musical Evening with four choirs, the Shanty Boys, soloists and possibly, talented children from Lee Junior school (October 30th in the church at 7.30 pm). Please make a note of and support these events but, better still, if you value the buildings and grounds, contact Tim (email: tima@bt.com / telephone 02392 359365) and join the ‘Friends’. Under Tim’s enthusiastic leadership there promises to be an exciting future running events and raising funds for a very worthwhile cause.

So how as a person who rarely attended church did Tim become involved with the Friends of St Faith’s? The simple answer is that having on one occasion attended church with his wife Pat, he met the vicar who mentioned the need for someone to run and revitalise the group. As a man who’d always loved the building Tim offered to run it himself and at once started stamping his own vision of what the ‘friends’ should be doing. 14

HOME FOCUS

Home Focus

Outdoor Living Space is often a premium with homes nowadays. Driveways are a luxury and gardens are getting smaller. Utilising every piece of available space is becoming an artform in itself so as we look to how we can best use the area we have, it’s worth considering how we employ our outside space. Many American homes create additional living space on their front porch. Agreed the weather is often kinder than it is in the UK, but we do have times when we could readily enjoy a living space to the front of the house. If you think about it, most homes with front gardens are there simply for show. They generally serve very little purpose (apart from to allow parking space occasionally) and oftentimes become a chore to create something that is only enjoyed on the walk in through the front door. No matter how small the front of your house is, consider if you’re able to create an area of privacy, perhaps with some hedging or trellis, and pop out a couple of bistro chairs and a table, or a simple garden bench so that you can sit with a cup of tea and watch the world go by. If you are lucky to have more space, then a front porch with open sides and a roof (rather than the enclosed, boot-room style) could be a great use of space. Outdoor rugs and furniture are easy to come by nowadays which means that you can dress the area to suit the style of your house. The addition of a small table provides practical storage space for either a pretty plant or a solar light. In fact, solar lights come in so many shapes and sizes now that these are great additions to all gardens. You can add ones on strings, posts etc and by strategically placing them around the plot you can create a lovely atmosphere for those late, balmy evenings that you can enjoy in the summer. If you’d rather not sit out the front of your house then look to creating something similar

to a porch out the back instead of a traditional patio. By using folding doors which are flush to the height of your outside space, you can make the zones really flow

If you don’t mind lighting a little fire, then a firepit or chimnea can provide warmth on a summers evening. They’re also great for toasting marshmallows—an old seamlessly. It also makes carrying drinks and fashioned pastime perhaps but one which snacks outside so much easier as you don’t everyone enjoys.

Keep on Running ‘Where did that year go?’ This is a phrase I seem to be hearing more as I get older. It’s rather scary how quickly time passes and with each year I realise how important it is to enjoy the moment. Suddenly we are in the midst of Summer 2019 and the Gosport Golden Mile has come and gone. This was our 7th consecutive year and I was determined that I was going to be the quickest 50 something ever to run our annual 1 mile chip timed event but yet again I was caught out by it coming around ‘suddenly!’ and another opportunity was gone. The weather wasn’t the best on the day but it certainly didn’t put the youngsters off and we enjoyed some spectacular efforts, mainly from local athletes. Edward Smyth, of City of Portsmouth Athletics Club took the ‘Junior Golden Mile’ honours in a very good time (considering the headwind) of 5 minutes and 41 seconds. The Senior event was won by another City of Portsmouth AC athlete, Joshua Goldfinch. He ran an impressive 4 min and 56 secs and doubled up by winning the Golden 5K in 18 minutes and 05 seconds, superb work by two of our rising stars. My son Harry will be particularly pleased with Edward’s result as he coached him for a short time when the Absolute Running sports shop was trading in Stoke Road. He always predicted big things for Ed and he may well be right. Gosport Young Runners

The ‘Golden’ Mile had a great turn out for the ‘Junior Mile’ and did their Head Coach, Victoria Wilson, proud. They displayed some pleasing personal performances, proving that Gosport has some talent in the junior ranks. We are blessed with Gosport having a wonderful facility in Stokes Bay and a perfectly flat mile of promenade on which to test ourselves. It’s no surprise that other coastal towns are now copying our lead and introducing their own versions of the ‘Golden Mile’. ‘Gosport Golden Mile’ is about community and getting people of all ages and abilities involved. It has played a huge part in getting people active and we want to continue building that legacy. If you are a business that wants to be involved in any way, please get in touch and we will happily discuss collaboration over a coffee. Meanwhile, enjoy summer whilst we have it. Be nice to our parks and open spaces and be proud of Gosport...it’s special. Next up for us will be the Gosport Beer Mile in September. This event sees 12 teams of 4 drinking a swift pint of locally brewed Fallen Acorn beer before racing the Golden Mile. You can join us on any Wednesday at Fallen Acorn Brewers in Mumby Road for a social 5K or a slightly more serious 60 minutes of running with The Breakfast Club every Sunday at 8am, starting at Bayside Cabin. We’re all about the fun, food and sometimes beer so what’s not to love? It’s Absolute Running...with a smile. Follow the shoe...
