Hello Brockenhurst! I am now really sure that the water “shortage” should be well handled. Bring back the sun! We have a couple of celebrity interviews this month that should make interesting reading. Hear from Christine Bleakley on her new workout regime and Sir Richard Branson on his secrets to success. There is also local information about the Brockenhurst Music Society concerts. I am looking for local people’s celebrations so that we can wish you Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary or drool over the photo of your new baby. It will be a new feature in our forthcoming issues and could be a great way to wish someone a Happy Day! Also if you have a group or club you would like everyone to know more about please email your data to us. There may be many people who would love to know about you or can give some help. If you have done something good or really worth while I can also promote that for you too. We all like to hear good news! If you have any suggestions or ideas for these pages then please let me know. In the meantime do keep our advertisers busy. They like that. Many are very happy with all the calls they get from you. The Brockenhurst Guide is definitely a great way to link local people and trades people together. Wishing you a great month of July… and may the sun shine! Best Wishes,

Supersweet Dorset blues coming soon The UK’s original blueberry plantation is opening its gates for PYO blueberry fans this summer. Eight varieties of these tasty supersweet berries will be available to pickers visiting Trehane’s plantation near Wimborne, from the early ripening Earliblue right through to the later Coville variety. Picking is anticipated to begin on 20th July and last through til the end of August. Sen sation al fresh from th e b u sh , blueberries are one of the only fruit that also freezes really well, and with little bending involved in picking from acres of established bushes, it’s easy to fill up a few punnets to eat later – or add to your favourite recipe. The nursery has also ensured some plants are under cover so there really is no reason not to enjoy top quality local fruit this summer. Alongside the fruit you’ll find a range of blueberry baked produce available to buy including the ever-popular deep-dish blueberry pie, blueberry dessert sauce with kirsch and blueberry flapjacks. The new blueberry chocolate brownies have been a particular hit at recent food shows. Anyone wanting to know more about the plantation, how blueberries first arrived in Dorset and tips on growing blueberries in beds and containers can also book on to a special Blueberry Workshop and Plantation Tour, which takes place at 2pm on 21st July and costs just £7.50, including refreshments. Hosted by horticulturist and auth or Jennifer Trehane, booking is essential, call the nursery on 01202 873490.

Interview with Christine Cleakley
12
www.facebook.com/BrockenhurstGuide
Workouts & Weddings TV presenter Christine Bleakley opens up about a big few months ahead. With rock hard abs and a red carpetworthy body that most of us would kill for, it’s no wonder that Christine Bleakley has been named Reebok Ambassador alongside the super fit Jack Osbourne. Thames-side, with London’s iconic Tower Bridge stood behind them, the pair went head to head at the launch of the much talked about fitness initiative, pulling out burpees and squats and working with dumbbells to push their bodies to the limit. Yet after an intense workout, Christine barely breaks into a sweat. “The first time I did Crossfit, I could only do 10 burpees (that’s ‘squat thrusts’ to you and I) I couldn’t breathe afterwards!” she says. “But now I’ll be able to do maybe 25 and that’s a massive difference. You can easily set goals to quickly increase your levels of fitness.” Essentially, the idea behind CrossFit is that a series of varied functional movements performed at high intensity helps to achieve overall physical fitness – so one minute you’re doing push-ups, the next you’re lunging into squats and doing stomach crunches. “It’s very much back to basics,” says Christine.
TBG July 2012 page 12
Christine Bleakley “There are no big scary machines that you don’t know how to use and it never gets boring because you spend 20 seconds doing one thing before moving on to something else. If you don’t have time to go to the gym, you can do this in short, sharp bursts and you can get it done in half an hour. “That said, working out with others who also want to push themselves gives the sport a real sense of community. You’re competing with the other team, but more importantly you’re always competing with yourself.”
Thursday, July 05, 2012 16:34 Black Magenta Yellow Cyan
Find us online at www.brockenhurstguide.co.uk Engaged to Chelsea footballer, Frank Lampard, Christine says living with a sportsman has its advantages. “We’re very supportive of each other and sometimes we work out together,” she says. “We enjoy our fitness and being relatively healthy, but we’re only healthy so that we can allow ourselves the odd treat. Nothing stops me pigging out!” Looking at Christine’s petite size 10 frame, you’d struggle to believe the TV personality was such a foodie. “Maintaining a healthy diet is everything for me,” she says. “I love food and I love cooking, because I enjoy it so much. And if I know I’m going out for dinner in the evening, I’ll do a workout that morning. It makes me feel less guilty about the pigging out bit! It all b alan ces its elf ou t as far as I’m concerned.” It’s refreshing to learn that Christine is neither diet- nor fitness-obsessed. Like most of us, she struggles to fit in a workout every day and aims for two good sessions a week. “We’re in an age where people are conscious of the way they look, but for me, more than anything, I like to exercise to clear my head,” she says. “I love emptying everything. I get very lethargic if I go a whole week without doing anything. Working out makes me feel good.” Desp ite h er imp ressi ve p h y siqu e, Christine admits there isn’t a part of her body she particularly loves. “I have bits that I potentially don’t mind on show as
TBG July 2012 page 13
13
opposed to bits that I know I will always cover,” she says. “There’s never a part of my body I look at and think, ‘Yes, you’re looking good today.’” It’s reassuring to know that even the super fit have body hang-ups and, for Christine, it’s her bottom. “I need to get back into doing lots of squats over the summer,” she says. “I want to have a pert bottom by the end of August!” So has she always been so fit? An active career in the media, Christine argues, has kept her on the ball. “Before TV presenting I was a floor manager on dramas so I was constantly on the go. Lots of times I’d keep fit from running around at work, never mind doing anything else outside of it. I never considered an office job sat at a desk all day - it’s difficult when you do that because that means you need to work that little bit extra outside of work. I’ve always been very lucky in that respect.” General fitness ambitions aside, it’s no secret that Christine is in the midst of planning a wedding – so is she ready for an all-over bridal body blitz? “I’ll get the summer over with first,” she says. “I know when the big day looms, you start thinking you’ve got to fit into the dress. Panic hasn’t set in yet, undoubtedly it will, but I’m not thinking about it right now. When we get round to planning, I know Frank will be involved, so that makes the whole thing a little less daunting, I suppose!”

“There’s nothing more distressing after losing a parent than finding out that their savings did not need to be spent on their care home fees. The system has let many people down very badly indeed.” This is the view of Jonathan Anderson, an experienced Will and Trust Specialist and founder of www.Recovernursinghomefees.com. Jonathan is currently progressing dozens of compensation assessments in the south of England where the lack of standardised criteria used in assessing who pays Nursing Home fees has potentially left families tens of thousands of pounds worse off. “Unfortunately differences in assessment between different UK Health Authorities has created a postcode lottery in whether the Primary Care Trust (PCT) or individuals have had to pay for care” Jonathan explained. “The Government has acknowledged that this has been unfair and have set aside a billion pounds in compensation.“ Compensation claims are open to anyone who was/is paying for residential care from April 2004 but there are deadlines to register cases, the earliest of which is September 2012.
TBG July 2012 page 19
19
“If you think that the fee assessment was not properly handled then it’s imperative to start the ball rolling now” Jonathan told us. “Our no win no fee policy means there is absolutely no barrier to anyone starting the process.” Once a case is accepted, a home visit prepares all the paperwork and all cases are submitted with an expert medical report produced by Senior Medical Practioners with experience of elderly care. “Compensation is not going to bring back a relative who has sadly passed away but helping to recover a financial legacy that was lost due to poor PCT practices is very important for the families left behind.”

Gardening Tips
20
www.facebook.com/BrockenhurstGuide
What to do in your Garden in July Now that we have reached July the garden should really be taking off. That also means, unfortunately that weeds will be doing the same and this is A Ladybird on a stem of grass something that must be kept must be kept on top of, and unless you use chemical pesticides in your garden the only way to keep them in check is good old fashioned weeding by hand. While you are at this task keep an eye out for pests, pick them off and dispose of them in the bin not the compost heap. Don’t mistake Ladybirds (for a pest as they are beneficial to the garden as they eat aphids. This wont work if you use chemical bug sprays. To encourage them plant some of the following: Angelica, Caraway, Cilantro, scented Geraniums, Tansies and Yarrow. Jobs to be done in the garden this month include the following: • Prune Spring flowering shrubs such as Weigela, Kolkwitzia and Wisteria, reduce their size by a third. You can also prune Apricot, Cherry and Plum trees at this time to help prevent Silver Leaf Disease. • Clip Box, Euonymus and Privet hedges. • Dead head perennials, summer bedding flowers and hanging baskets to keep them looking fresh and encourage further blooming. • Keep your eye out for Clematis wilt which shows in wilting leaves and black discolouration of the stems and leaves. If you spot this cut out and safely dispose of the infected part. • Continue to tie up the new shoots on Climbers to encourage them to go where you want them to, not where they might wander.

When you have done all this one additional thing you might consider, even if your garden is “fully stocked”, and that is have a wander around various Garden Centres. Keep a notebook and pen with you and note down any varieties that would make a good addition to your garden in the future. If you are wise you will choose a place that has a Café in it so that after a good go round you can nip in, sit down with a latte or a cup of tea and a sticky bun and contemplate all the changes you could make to improve your garden even more. “Oh the calories” do I hear you cry? But you’ve already weeded and walked Beautiful Cosmos those off.

Looking for (free) deliverance of Pet Food? The general public will get anything delivered nowadays. You’ve probably noticed that as you wait behind a large van parked in your street, nearly every supermarket offers to get your groceries to your door. Now you can get your pet food delivered. No more emergency trips to the supermarket or trudging down to the pet shop on a wet evening to feed Fido. Companies like Oscar Pet Foods actually specialise in delivery cum-hailor-shine, preferring a free visit in their colourful van, to opening a shop. But there’s a lot more to door-to-door delivery nowadays. It’s not just about saving you time and petrol money but offering a new kind of personal service, you can now get individual attention with advice, information and a friendly face. Take the Oscar’s approach. Of course, we deliver a range of pet food to suit every breed and budget but we can also talk about your pet’s nutritional needs or behavioural issues.
TBG July 2012 page 23
We can regularly monitor your pet’s reaction to the food/weight. We ensure you are happy with your choice and offer other kinds of pet care. Delivery is not just about handing over a bag of food once a month or so, but a continual support to benefit you and your pet. So why not consider delivering yourself from the pain of shopping? For more information, contact Clare Muir on 01590 681423 or visit the website at www.oscars.co.uk. Oscar – much more than pet food.
