Introduction

The Wimborne Directory

How are you? Are you managing to get out and about again after a few months indoors? How very odd these times are. Daichi, The Dashing Dude, our beloved campervan took us out this month and we had a great trip around the Isle of Purbeck! It was a fantastic day and you can read all about it inside. It certainly is good to be able to travel and have some family fun. We do hope you have been able to do the same.

Here in your local Modern Magazine, there are lots of local trades and services to help with all of that. Why not give them a ring to see how they can help you? The advertisers would love to hear from you and don’t forget to mention us. Sixteen years on and I still love to hear that you are backing up our local trades and services. It is very appreciated and a win win situation all round! Our community thrives on helping each other. Especially in these times. If there are any trades you need and cannot find here please let me know. I may be able to help you.

We do hope things keep improving. We have done a fabulous job, I believe, in keeping as many people as well as possible. It has been team work on a huge scale! If we concentrate on the positive, we will get even more positive results. Stay alert, keep cleaning and we will get through.

Have a great month of August!

QUIRKY

BY MICA BALE

Although a socially distant summer might well prove to be an interesting chapter in the history of British seaside towns and coastal resorts, there is still plenty to enjoy in Dorset. Whether you are keen for a safe visit to one of the county’s many beauty spots or prefer delving into the county’s fascinating treasure trove of history, here are five more interesting facts from the beautiful county of Dorset.

As well as being renowned as one of Dorset’s most beautiful gems, Kimmeridge Bay, situated on the Isle of Purbeck, is packed with millennia of geological history and even today continues to delight visitors as one of the favourite spots in the

1

county for water sports such as surfing and also the perhaps more pastoral pastime of rockpooling. However, a perhaps lesser known fact from this beautiful area is that just a pebble’s throw away is the older working oil pump in Britain!

Did you know?

Eighty-five years ago, the world’s shortest funicular railway was built in Bournemouth? The Fisherman's Walk Cliff Lift is recognised by the Guiness Book of World Records in 2015 for its unusual travel time, taking only a brief few moments to reach the top of the cliff. It is one of three such funicular railways which climb the Bournemouth cliffs, although the Fisherman’s Walk is surely the most interesting and popular, attracting millions of happy travellers since its opening eighty-five years ago.

2

The local icon of the three chalk formations that are better known as Old Harry Rocks are hailed for their importance and enjoy protected status.

However they also serve to preserve the story of Harry Paye who is perhaps memorialized by these glorious natural structures in the sea. Locals will be well familiar with the story of smuggler and pirate Harry Paye whose ruthlessness caused even the Spanish and French fleets to fear the local of Dorset. Interestingly however, before the devastating effects of erosion took hold, the three chalk rocks were more numerous and until 1896, even Old Harry’s Wife was commemorated with a chalk structure of her own. Each year, a regular event is held in June to celebrate the local pirate however it has been postponed to later in the year.

3

Gin ‘O’ Clock!

Were you aware that Dorset has its very own gin? The award winning Conker Spirit company is also the first gin distillery in the county and makes a variety of different drinks including the dry gin that Dorset lends its name to. Described as similar to the traditional London dry gin, the Dorset Dry Gin is a combination of botanicals including some foraged from around the county and also New Forest Spring Water.

4

Ever heard about the World Nettle Eating Championship? If not, then perhaps it would come as a surprise that it is the 16th century pub, the Bottle Inn, situated in Marshwood which hosts the annual championship!

According to the history of the competition, the unusual championship was born after two local farmers argued about whose field grew bigger stinging nettles and it was decided that whoever had the longer stinging nettle, the other farmer would eat it. Competitors travel from all over the world to participate in the World Nettle Eating Championship, right in the heart of Dorset.

Community News

Georgia swims “channel” in memory of Mum A few weeks into Lockdown, my Dad jokingly suggested that I could swim 21 miles, the equivalent distance to swimming the channel, in our little 10ft pool in the garden. That joke became reality and over 9 days I completed an at home channel swim. It was cold and it was rainy on some days, but I managed to finish in some sunshine!

I was swimming in order to raise awareness and as much money as possible for Target Ovarian Cancer, the UK’s leading ovarian cancer charity, to help in the fight against ovarian cancer.

Lockdown has hit many charities hard with events having to be cancelled. Yet women are still being diagnosed every day with ovarian cancer and for those living with a diagnosis, coronavirus has caused a lot of anxiety. The need for the support and services that Target Ovarian Cancer offer is required now more than ever. This was one of the reasons I embarked on the challenge.

In addition to this, unfortunately in December 2017, as a family, our lives got turned upside down when my Mum was diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer. After two rounds of chemotherapy and a cycle of whole brain radiotherapy, Mum passed away a few months ago, just a couple of days before Christmas, a mere two years after her diagnosis, at the age of 54. Leaving a huge hole in lives of my Dad, my brother, myself and many close friends and family who miss her everyday.

As a result of this, my aim is to raise money and awareness to ensure that every woman has the best chance of survival. I want to try to help ultimately reduce the number of women who have to battle ovarian cancer and therefore reduce the number of women and families that this disease affects.

Not many people have heard of ovarian cancer or know much about it, and most importantly don’t know about the symptoms, and I want this to change, as early diagnosis really can save lives.

I have also now set up an online sweet selling business, Nedra’s Sweet Charity, named after Mum, in which profits from all sales are being donated to Target Ovarian Cancer. Again, to raise much needed awareness as well as funds to help fight in the battle against ovarian cancer. We are a family of sweet lovers, and I wanted to do something that would raise continuous funds, so I decided to combine two passions - a passion for sweets combined with a passion for raising awareness of ovarian cancer.

We have a range of different products and are currently selling on Etsy, our shop can be found at: www.etsy.com/shop/nedrassweetcharity and we can also be found on Instagram @ nedrassweetcharity and on Facebook Nedra’s Sweet Charity.

For me this isn’t just a lockdown project but a long term venture. I’m hopeful that we will receive many more orders, that the business will continue to grow and therefore raise further funds and generate more widespread awareness of ovarian cancer.

Talking about Wildlife...

Reptiles: soaking up the sun in Dorset Like humans, rep�les love basking in the sun at this �me of year. In Dorset we are lucky to have lowland heathland habitat to support all six Bri�sh na�ve rep�le species.

Rep�les are truly magnificent creatures, but they need a very specific habitat to thrive in and can be very sensi�ve to changes in their environment, which is why all rep�le species are legally protected. You also need a license to handle and monitor them.

As rep�les are ectothermic (cold-blooded), they bask in the sun to warm up, and hide away in the shade to cool down again.

During the colder months they hibernate, but in the summer months, rep�les will be enjoying the sunshine and feas�ng on the delights the heath has to offer, with lizards preying on spiders and insects and snakes favouring small mammals.

As with lots of wildlife species in Dorset, their survival and success is largely due to having well-managed habitat to thrive in.

Dorset Wildlife Trust’s Great Heath team work hard on our heaths to ensure there is sandy soil, low vegeta�on and not too many trees, to create a dry and warm habitat for rep�les.

If you’re out on the heath this summer, please admire rep�les from a distance, and do not li� metal �ns (used for surveying purposes) to see them. Fires can be devasta�ng to a rep�le popula�on on heathland so please report any suspicious behaviour on heathland to Dorset Police on 101. In the event of a fire phone 999.

Specialist Nurse conquers Everest at home for hospice charity An End of Life Nurse Specialist at Forest Holme Hospice in Poole has raised over £2,200 for the charity by climbing the equivalent of Mount Everest as she recovered from emergency back surgery.

Vanessa Barents hurt her back out of blue over nine weeks ago and was taken to hospital for emergency surgery. She decided to use her recovery to raise some money for the hospice by walking up and down her stairs at home, until she reached the 17,475 steps needed to equal a climb to the summit of the world’s highest mountain.

Vanessa, said, “I suffered a slipped disc in my lower back, which caused Cauda Equina Syndrome that affected my lower half really badly.

I had emergency surgery to fix the problem, and as part of my rehab, I decided to raise money for Forest Holme Hospice, a charity very dear to my heart. Not only do I have the privilege of working for them, but I also see first-hand the amazing work that is done there. During the coronavirus outbreak, most of the charity’s fundraising has stopped, so I thought why not combine my rehab with raising money for the hospice.”

Forest Holme Hospice provides end of life care and support to more than 1,000 local people each year with advanced cancer and other life-limiting illnesses across Poole, Wimborne and Isle of Purbeck. Each year the Charity needs to raise at

least £850,000 to help enhance the NHS provision at the hospice and ensure that Forest Holme is there for patients and their family and friends during the most difficult time of their lives. However, this year due to the coronavirus pandemic the charity has forecast a loss of at least £350,000.

Vanessa is currently up to 90% of her target on her Just Giving page and hopes now that she has completed her challenge and returned to work, she can encourage a few others to donate via https://www.justgiving. com/fundraising/vanessa-barents She added, “Any support would be amazing. The team at the hospice do such an amazing job with supporting palliative and end of life care, and need some extra support at the moment. I’m very pleased to have finished my fundraising event and thanks everyone for all of the support. The fundraiser is still open, and it would be amazing if I could reach my target.”

Welcome back to all our clients both existing... and future!

The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the urgent need for everyone to have Power of Attorneys in place. For the many who have either contracted the virus or had to isolate for a prolonged period, having registered Power of Attorneys would have helped them immensely in the management of their affairs during this time.

So

What is a Lasting Power of Attorney?

A Power of Attorney is a legal document by which an individual gives another person(s) authority to make certain decisions on his or her behalf.

You are not giving away any of your money or property to anyone else – your Attorney is just authorised to deal with those assets for you when you wish them to, or when you are unable to.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) continues in effect even if the person giving the power becomes mentally incapable of dealing with their affairs.

A lasting power of attorney is not to do with what happens when you die. Nor does it prevent you from continuing to make decisions and dealing with your own affairs for so long as you are capable.

Your Attorney(s) can only ever act in your best interests.

There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA):

1. “Property and Affairs” which allows your Attorney the power to deal with your property and finances.

2. “Health and Welfare” which allows your Attorney to make welfare and healthcare decisions on your behalf, but only when you lack the mental capacity to make those decisions yourself.

Indeed, the pandemic has also highlighted the very real need for everyone to have a current Will, irrespective of their financial standing or age.

Now is the time: to learn the lessons from this pandemic.

Now is the time: to put appropriate protection in place.

Now is the time: to give yourself the peace of mind in knowing your affairs are in order.

The good news is, this is not as complicated or expensive as it sounds.

Dorset and Wight are your local trusted provider of affordable Lasting Power of Attorneys and professionally drafted Wills.

STAR GAZING Welcome to the monthly Stargazing Page. Each month I’ll be describing astronomical events that are happening overhead in our beau ful night skies. The majority of them are viewable just by stepping out at the appropriate me and looking up, but some may require a par cular vantage point (e.g. a clear view to the west). A cloudless sky is (usually) required!

Some viewings will benefit from using binoculars or a small telescope if you have one, but most observa ons can be enjoyed without either.

Interna onal Space Sta on

The Interna onal Space Sta on (ISS) is usually visible at some point during the night, but o�en at unsociable hours. Unfortunately, at the me of going to press, there were no ‘social’ overhead passes for the month of August. However, mings are subject to change, therefore I recommend visi ng www.heavens-above.com for up-to-date informa on, remembering to set the loca on to Bournemouth. This reliable website has just added a new feature, called, ‘Live Sky View’, which is great for iden fying satellites as they pass overhead, especially the new Starlink satellites that will soon fill our night skies.

Meteor Events The annual Perseid meteor event reaches its peak this year on the night of 12-13th August. Unfortunately, the op mum me to spot most meteors, which is around 2a.m., coincides with a bright Moon. However, some lone meteors and their trails may be spo ed towards the northeast earlier in the evening prior to the moon rising. Nowadays, astronomers tend to avoid the term ‘meteor shower’, instead preferring to use the less roman c but much more realis c term ‘meteor event’. The former tends to raise expecta ons, with many pairs of eyes looking expectedly skyward in the hope of seeing meteors ‘rain down’ on them. Although o�en spectacular, meteor events can be a damp squib, and using the term meteor ‘event’ may help to lessen any disappointment.

Mercury In early August, Mercury will be visible for those willing to rise around 5a.m. It will be extremely low on the horizon towards the ENE, and hard to spot in the brightening dawn light.

Venus Now shining as the Morning Star, early risers will no ce Venus shining brightly in the east, best seen between 4 - 5a.m. before the sun rises. The view through a set of very good binoculars or telescope during the first week of August will show Venus in a stunning crescent phase. This then gradually increases to a half-moon phase for the remainder of the month.

To advertise in The Wimborne Directory, please call: 01202 894397

23 Mars The red planet is rising around 11p.m. and is visible high in the south throughout the night.

Saturn & Jupiter Both gas giants are visible low in the south a�er sunset. The pair are joined by the Moon on the 1st and 2nd August, and then again on the 28th and 29th. These two planets will not rise high in the sky so a clear view to the south is required.

August is also a great month to locate the centre of our Milky Way galaxy, located within the constella on of Sagi arius (Jupiter and Saturn are currently located within the same constella on and can be used as a star ng point - see diagram). Look for the ‘Teapot’ asterism low to the south. Its spout points towards the galac c centre, which hosts a super massive black hole called Sgr A*, which has a mass equivalent to 4 million Suns. The stars located close to this black hole are so affected by its immense gravita onal pull that they are orbi ng it at a whopping 5co000 kilometres per second! Our own solar system orbits around this central point at 270 kilometres per second. Even at such speeds, if you wished to return to the point in space where you had breakfast this morning, it would take roughly 225 million years to circle back to the same spot!

Moon This month’s full moon on August 3rd is tradi onally known as the Sturgeon Moon to some Na ve American tribes, as it coincides with the me of year when sturgeon are abundant in their fishing lakes. August’s full moon also goes by the names Green Corn Moon, Blueberry Moon, and Red Moon.

Galactic Centre

VIEW S THROUGHOUT AUGUST @09:30PM

Did you know?

August is a great me of year to spot the ‘Summer Triangle’ asterism. An asterism is a group of stars which make a recognisable shape or pa ern, but do not form an official constella on and it is recognised as a summer asterism, it is visible right through autumn into winter.

The Adventures of Daichi

26

The Adventures of Daichi

The Dorset Publications Camper Van As a family we have always loved “Treasure Trails, the fun way to explore”. Looking on their website www.treasuretrails.co.uk Daichi found an ideal one, as he could literally join in the fun too. This trail was a drive / walk expedition to recover a father and son who had gone missing while exploring some of the old ball clay mines! Of course, that was fictional, but don’t tell Daichi as he really thought he was being a detective for the day.

It was perfect - 20 miles searching for clues around our wonderful Isle of Purbeck. Daichi was up early, roaring his engine, picnic packed and coats at the ready just in case.

It was windy but bright. Let’s get those clues and save the day!

Now, did you know that the name ‘ball clay’ came about as the clay was extracted by hand and during the transportation the large cube corners become rounded.

There are many Ball Clay Mines on the Isle of Purbeck. Also, did you know that Wedgewood bone china, the world’s finest china, is renowned to have a secret ingredient… and that secret ingredient is Purbeck Ball Clay? Shush…. Don’t tell anyone!

Corfe Castle from Stoborough Heath

Daichi admires the church at Knowlton Our first destination, hiding our first clue, was in the picturesque village of Church Knowlton. Tiny, with an idyllic thatched cottage and a Church that instantly throws you back to bygone days of village life and farming. There is something about that lifestyle, hard graft, but long and flowing dresses worn on a Sunday for Church with children running around mischievously, that I find rather appealing. Daichi was dazzled with the beauty and serenity. We found clues in the Church graveyard and as I also have a rather odd fascination with reading very old gravestones, this was right up my street. Or should I say headstone?

Daichi’s engine shuddered as we moved to our next clue which was at the entrance to the Margaret Green Animal Rescue Centre.

What an incredible village.

Treasure Trails is a process of elimination.

This one had 21 clues with 21 locations the father and son could be. Stephen, myself and Hayden like to have a game between us, where we guess at the start what the answer is. There is a prize if one of us gets it right! It all adds to the anticipation, as we eliminate the clues one by one.

27 This was a trail, not only of clue finding, but also of discovery and learning. We discovered the memorial of The Creech Barrow Seven, who were seven local men ready to defend their country in the second World War. We learned that Ian Fleming, author of the James Bond books went to Durnford School in this area and that he was allegedly inspired by a real-life spy, John Bond, an ancestor to the Bond family who lived at Creech Grange House on our route. The family’s motto, inscribed in Latin on a wall there, is “The world is not enough” which of course is the title to James Bond’s 21st movie. The picturesque estate was sold for around £3.5 million a couple of years ago. Nice. We drove passed Tyneham, the lost village, which is a whole story in itself and one for another day. Passed the Springfield Hotel and into the car park of East Holme Farm Shop. Of course, we had to buy some healthy food after ticking off a few more clues, before setting off again.

We stopped for lunch overlooking the gorgeous rolling hills. Terrific views and Daichi was so pleased to give us shelter from the wind, so that we could eat, thoroughly enjoy the space and relax in comfort. Oh, this is the campervan life.

On to Stoborough where they were several good clues to find. Then up to Stoborough

Enjoying family time in the wind!

Cruise ship in Bournemouth Bay Heath National Nature Reserve. Just Beautiful. Magnificent in fact. We went on to discover the Engine Shed, now a listed building which housed the engines of the old Tramway. By chance the owner arrived and we had a chat! The lanes, the countryside, the views here on the Isle of Purbeck really are stunning. What a beautiful county Dorset is.

The journey ended at Norden Park and Ride. Norden is such an iconic station and so well preserved. We did not see any trains other than those engines stationed on the tracks, but all that searching, history discovery, picnic and photography meant we had arrived after 6pm on a Sunday. One clue here was tricky to find. It is possible the data had been removed, but by now, with only a few clues left we did an intelligent process of elimination and are pretty sure we knew where Ben and his boy were! Phew I say. None of us had guessed it right at the beginning, but hey, it was a wonderful day. We were all winners. Daichi was in his element and so were we. We ended our expedition overlooking the incredible green hills flowing into the sea at Poole and Bournemouth. Cruise Liners bobbing on the horizon. Just gorgeous. Where will Daichi take us next?

10 local artists and theatre makers commissioned to create engaging work to help beat isolation during lockdown In March 2020 the UK went into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In May 2020 Activate promoted an opportunity for artists and theatre makers to submit their ideas for ways to engage communities through this strange and often isolating - experience.

Now the artistic projects, Creative Communities in Quarantine, are ready for the public to engage with.

10 Dorset-based artists, including Harry Potter star Rohan Gotobed (who played young Sirius Black), have been offered £500 each, plus the expertise and support of the Activate producers to see their projects come to life.

The projects include collecting memories from the residents of Sherborne, sensory audio stories for care home residents, outdoor adventures for 3-6 year olds, wildwriting workshops, audio postcards for those living with dementia and flag-making to thank local heroes.

Kate Wood, Artistic and Executive Director, Activate Performing Arts, said: “We are really pleased to be able to offer these micro commissions to local artists. Many people are seeing the benefits of art and culture while we have to stay at home so it’s important for us to support this in our local area. As an organisation we want to support

Rohan Gotobed - Photo: Molly Bernadin the development of artists in Dorset and have commissioned 10 local creatives (including 4 emerging artists). We know their work will have a positive impact on the communities they engage with.”

Commissioned Dorset-based artist Rohan Gotobed said: “Activate’s a great organisation who’ve immediately stepped up to support Dorset artists and communities during lockdown. All the commissioned projects sound brilliant and reflect how much we want to engage with communal culture as we come out of lockdown.

I’m really excited about developing ‘Our Tale’ with their team over the next few months and can’t wait to include as many people as possible in our shared story.”

Jacob Carter from UpsideUp Theatre Company – recent graduates of Arts University Bournemouth – said on working on the commission: “We have loved working with Activate

31 to create our latest project. They brought a friendly and relaxed atmosphere to a form of creative process which was fairly new to us. This was our first fully online project, and we are excited to extend our reach and contribute to what we are quickly discovering to be a thriving community of artists in Dorset. We have been inspired to revamp our company in several areas by working with Activate on delivering this project in the most accessible way possible. There is a lot we will be taking forward to future projects.” The full collection of micro commissions is as follows: The Collective Memory Archive – Artist Isobel Jobbins is looking for local memories from residents of Sherborne. These stories will help create a booklet of walks for others to enjoy.

Flag it up Portland – Get crafting to create a ‘thank you flag’ for your local heroes. Sophie Fretwell’s easy to follow videos will guide you through the process and if you’re a Portland

resident, you can submit them for a chance to feature in a display.

Our Tale – Share a line to create an epic story. Artist Rohan Gotobed will curate a story with the people of East Dorset.

Mini Maisie’s Journal – UpsideUp Theatre Company bring to life a paper character. Children aged 3-6 can join Mini Maisie on her adventures through video and downloadable activity packs.

Wildwriting! Dorset – Join Sarah Acton from Black Ven poetry on a series of 6 Wildwriting adventures - a new one will be released each week.

Going online – Millstream Theatre are looking to create more work online and require a digital artist to help them do so. Applications now open.

Beside the Sea – Frenetic Fox Theatre are working with four Dorset care homes to bring memories of the seaside alive for those living with dementia.

Audio Postcards – Artist Megan Dunford is working with In Jolly Good Company to create audio postcards with older people in the rural area of Wimborne St. Giles.

The Quaranteens – BACStage Youth Theatre are going online and Zooming their way through lockdown.

SoNiche Productions – Inspired by the BBC’s Radio Ballads, Jo Tyler and James Laming invite isolated creatives to record their thoughts to help create audio visual records of these times.

Gardening Tips

32

On Your Plot If all has gone to plan (that’s a big if!) then August should be a very sa sfying month on your plot, with your hard work being repaid by ample harvests of a good range of fruit and veg.

The reality tends to be that the excitement of seeing your crops grow and ripen is ini ally followed by much enjoyment of the first fruits of your labour which can soon be replaced by a panic stricken ‘What the heck do I do with all these’! Certain crops (courge es and tomatoes spring to mind) can almost guarantee this sequence of events!

Sharing with friends and neighbours is great but very o�en they will have a glut of exactly the same thing at just the same me. What is called for are some simple ideas for storing and preserving your produce. It may be a long me before you are harves ng fresh peas or raspberries again but that doesn’t mean that you can’t be enjoying your home grown produce throughout the winter - it just takes a li le planning and now is the me to do it.

Onions (and garlic) that have been li�ed and le� to dry can be plaited and hung in a cool, dry place. Net bags, or ghts, also work if you don’t fancy plai ng. Potatoes can be stored in boxes or papersize sacks in a dark, dry boon building you A good freezer is a real for but making should check themproduce. regularly,Blanching removingand any then that the most of your show signs of ro翿� ng. of vegetables. freezing works for loads A good size freezer is a real boon for making the most of your produce. Blanching and then It’s hard to remain excited when you’ve had courge e at every meal for a week, and marvellous though raspberries are there is a limit to just how many you can eat at once. Take a bit of me to store your harvest and you can be enjoying home grown right through the winter.

• Water regularly - try to water either in the evening or early mornings.

Hoarding freezing works for loads of vegetables. Key to success is to cool quickly a�er blanching so have a bowl of cold water at the ready and don’t forget to label what you are freezing!

Another op on, and one that can work well for all those tomatoes, is to find a good recipe that you can cook, freeze and use later (how about a wonderful pasta sauce with your own tomatoes and home grown basil?). Even ‘difficult to freeze’ veg such as courge es can either be incorporated into a sauce, or blanched, frozen and then added to a stew at a later date.

Cooking and freezing can work well for fruit too - apple or rhubarb are good stewed and frozen all ready for use in a crumble or pie. If you have a truly wonderful fruit crop then why not arm yourself with a good recipe book and get started on some jam making? It’ll be delicious on your toast in the morning, and what be er gi� than a pot of homemade raspberry jam?

It’s amazing how many books there are that tell you how to grow your fruit and veg, but how li le informa on there is on just how to store it all! One wonderful li le book, that deals with just this ques on is ‘How to store your garden produce’ by Piers Warren. It’s packed. with informa on about how to store just about anything and a great addi on to any gardeners library.

Happy harvesting!

JOBS FOR AUGUST • If you are growing main crop potatoes, watch out for signs of blight. Brown patches on the tops and edges of leaves are usually a first sign.

• Pinch out the tops of runner bean stems that are outgrowing their supports.

• Sow turnips and oriental salad plants such as Pak Choi and Chinese Cabbage • Strawberry runners that were po ed up in June to produce new plants can be planted out now.

MINI PIZZAS

With these Mini Pizzas you really have the chance to make them your own. Cover them with tomato and cheese and then pick from any number of topping choices: Pineapple and ham, pepperoni or even chicken and sweetcorn. Alternatively create your own unique toppings.

Ingredients 450g strong white bread flour 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil 7g sachet fast-action yeast 350ml warm water 2 tsp. salt

Equipment: Large bowl Oven: 240C, Gas Mark 9, 220C Method: In a large bowl, mix together the yeast, flour and 2 teaspoons of salt. Once this is all mixed together, create a well in the middle. In a separate jug, mix together the oil and the water and then pour into the bowl. Then, work the liquid into the flour mix to create the dough. Leave the bowl to one side for 15 minutes. Create a well-floured surface and put flour on your hands then begin to knead the dough. Do this for about 2 minutes until it is soft and even. Put the dough back in the bowl and cover it with oiled cling film. Leave it once again to one side (preferably in a warm place). When the dough has risen to double its size, heat the oven and place a baking sheet on a high shelf. Then dust another sheet with flour before splitting the dough into 8. Roll 3 balls thinly into circles and put them on the floured sheet. Use a thin layer of sauce on top with some seasoning and cheese of your choice. Bake for 12 minutes until golden then add fresh toppings of your choice and use the rest of the dough to create more!
