Welcome... to the July/August issue. As I write , Euro 2012 is underway - I’ve picked my fantasy football team although I have to confess I forgot Rooney was banned for the first 2 games so that’ll be Nil points!! After an early morning start I saw the Olympic Torch at the West Sands in St Andrews. I’m looking forward to taking in the Olympic football at Hampden Park in July. It’s the closest we’ll get as a trip to London is unlikely. Closer to home the Crail Festival (page 11) takes place from the 18-28th July, followed by the Pittenweem Arts Festival (page 7) from 28th July - 5th August. See their adverts for more information as both have a host of activities planned. If you can spare an hour to Give Blood pop along to the Community Hall in Crail on Monday 27th August see page 39 for more details.

Complementary Therapies
Reiki The Seaside Sanctuary, run by Kathryn Follon in St Monans has a lovely sea front therapy room where you can relax and enjoy the wonderful energy of Reiki whilst listening to the sounds of the sea! “A Reiki session with Kathryn is a blissful escape from today’s busy lifestyle!” Reiki means “Universal Life Energy” and is the energy that flows through all living things and is vital to wellbeing. It balances and heals the body, mind, spirit and emotions and is also used to encourage spiritual and personal growth. During a session the recipient lies down fully clothed in a peaceful, comfortable environment and the practitioner places their hands gently on or above the body. The
recipient automatically draws in only as much energy as is needed and uses it in whatever way is most appropriate for them. Reiki may be experienced as a flow of energy, mild tingling, warmth, coolness, other sensations or nothing at all. It is deeply relaxing and has a profoundly calming effect. After a session it is advisable to rest for a while, drink plenty of water and be responsive to your body’s needs. The beneficial effects can last for several days. Frequency of treatments depends on individual needs and initially a course of regular treatments may be more effective.

Pippa Greenwood
Dry Weather Gardening After all those weeks in early summe r when it didn’t s top raining, many plants w ill have been lulled into a false sense of security. And we’re a lso likely to have become too used to not worrying about wate ring and how to minimise the effects of dry weathe r. He re are my tips f or coping: Mulching really does help to keep the moisture in the soil. Make sure it’s really well watered BEFORE you apply the mulch. Then around the area, covering the roots of the plant (or preferably a bit further) shovel on well-rotted manure, composted bark or garden compost. Mulching benefits vegetables as well as flowers.
miniature white flowers, often with a touch of pink, which resemble those of morning gl ories.
A slow but steady supply of water is more use and appreciated by plants more than intermittent heavy drenching. Newly planted trees and shrubs establish better and suffer drought stress less if the soil is never allowed to dry completely. Installing perforated or permeable pipe beneath the soil surface or beneath the mulch provides what they need.
Geraniums and their cousins, Pelargoniums, are both very drought resistant, and come with foliage that is often attractively marked and pretty flowers. Pelargoniums, usually the more flamboyantly coloured of the two, are not hardy but great in summer containers and the herbaceous geraniums should last for years.
Rosemary: this shrub has great purple flowers and wonderfully aromatic foliage, perfect for cooking. When mature many people use the wood to make barbeque skewers, imparting a delightful rosemary aroma to the meat.
Visit Pippa’s website www.pippagreenwood.com, sign Don’t risk new plantings for the patio becoming up for her newsletter and receive a free ebook on drought stressed. When planting up late season patio organic gardening. pots, make sure you line the insides of the pot with bubble-wrap polythene. When you need to water your garden, apply it in the evening or early in the morning. Less will be lost by evaporation and there will also be less likelihood of plants suffering scorching. Avoid buying new plants right now. In dry conditions it’s much harder for a plant to become established and more likely that it’ll suffer stress. Temporary shading, such as shade netting (available from garden centres) or some large, leafy branches driven in to the soil, will help to keep things a little cooler during the hotter weather. Vegetable plants can be covered with netted cloches (like the Giant Easy Net Tunnels available from my website) to achieve the same effect. Siphoning water out from the bath is a great way to re-use domestic water. The tiny quantities of soap won’t cause any problems. Remember that some plants are more tolerant of dry conditions than others. On the whole, plants with silvery or densely hairy leaves are pretty drought tolerant, as are those of Mediterranean origin. My favourites include: Convolvulus cneorum: stunning silvery leaves and

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ gas mark 7. Place the cherries in a pan with the brown sugar and red wine. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes until soft. Spoon the cherries in to 4 large ramekins. Roughly crumble the amaretti biscuits onto the top, dividing them equally. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites to a stiff peak. Start adding the sugar gradually, whisking all the time until the meringue is glossy. Spoon onto the top of the cherries. Bake for 5-8 minutes until the meringue is golden. Serve with nothing else but a chilled glass of dessert wine or a generous glass of cassis.

Wrinkle Reduction & Dermal Fillers
Beauty Treatments Jennifer’s Beauty Salon is well known in the East Neuk offering the very best beauty treatments carried out by very highly trained therapists. Dr Patricia Finlay is now part of the team at Jennifer’s offering WRINKLE REDUCTION and DERMAL FILLERS. Dr Patricia Finlay is a specialist in Oral and Facial surgery, currently at the Regional Maxillofacial Unit in Glasgow and has developed a special interest in facial aesthetics. Treatments include: Wrinkle Reduction Tiny amounts of muscle relaxant solution can be injected into areas such as frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet. The solution temporarily prevents the muscle from working so strongly and therefore the wrinkle is reduced or
eliminated leaving a smoother appearance. The injections are almost painless and take only a few minutes. Immediately afterwards, no-one will know that the treatment has been carried out. The treatment takes two to five days to be effective, although the full effect can take two weeks to develop. Effects last for around three months and can be repeated to maintain the effects. Dermal Fillers At Jennifer’s we use Juvederm, a natural substance found normally in the body. Juvederm is injected to increase the skin’s hydration and fills out lines such as nose to mouth lines. It can also be used to plump up lips or iron out top lip lines.
The effects are long lasting – up to six months and can be repeated. The treatments are carried out under local anaesthesia so are not uncomfortable. Patricia visits our Pittenweem salon regularly. To make an appointment for a FREE consultation when you can chat about your requirements in a discrete and comfortable environment or for treatment please telephone

A Proverbial Life... A picture paints a thousand words In our early days of married life each family photograph was lovingly taken with camera and film, delivered to the chemist for development and the finished prints picked up a week later. Sometimes, I’d use a special envelope for sending films off for processing to some far flung film developers before, hopefully, having them delivered back through the door. I can still remember the excitement of collecting developed pictures from the chemist; hoping the assistants hadn’t had a sneak peak at them, then hiding round the corner to scan the latest pictorial record of our life. There were always some photographs that hadn’t quite turned out as expected; blurrily out of focus, too bright or too dark, with maybe a fat thumb or skinny finger covering the lens and captured for all to see. I treasured these photographs. I used to spread them out on the living room floor and gaze at them for hours. Then once I’d had my fill of imprinting them on my memory and showing them off I’d proudly stick them into albums. As the years passed the collection of photographs and albums grew. As further years passed I became lax about sticking the photos in albums; instead tossing the packets of prints into an old apple box kept for that purpose.
With the arrival of digital cameras we didn’t have to be so careful in our photo taking. Snap, snap, snap at each and every opportunity with no fears about the costs of film or processing. Transfer to the computer, delete those you don’t like, crop, adjust and save those you do. In the early days proudly printing them out on the home printer, then later, just burn them to disc and forget about the printing. Stacks and stacks of discs recording our life, sanitised, edited and suitable for viewing by all. Emailed to friends and family, posted on Facebook and shared with the world, backed up then slipped into little plastic wallets... and largely forgotten. Far too many to commit to memory – far too many marking insignificant and truly mundane moments. Recently, while sorting through some papers I came across a photograph. It showed three small boys in swimming trunks and a middle aged man also in trunks. They were all standing in a river, knee deep in water and holding hands. It’s a glorious summer day and while you can’t fully see their faces it’s clear they’re laughing. If you look closely you can see fishing rods, towels, a picnic
and two cans of beer on the riverbank. You can also see my toes captured while sitting on the grass and taking the photograph. I’d nearly forgotten that day 25 years ago; not quite but nearly. Three young boys and their granddad fishing and swimming, the family holiday, the nettles, the trek to the swimming spot and the digging for worms. I remember a lot more but it’s not for sharing. It’s for savouring in quiet, private moments when I need to count my blessings – something I do frequently. Apart from the wonderful memories the photograph invoked it also prompted another feeling. I’m now increasingly convinced of the need to revert to actually printing my digital photographs, or of having them printed for me. I don’t want them to be forgotten or consigned to shiny metal discs and stuffed into brittle plastic envelopes. I’d quite like my children and grandchildren to come across them and think, ‘I remember that.’ By A. O’Brien

Good Sport Stories
The London 2012 Games are upon us and suddenly the country is sports mad. If the ‘Couch Olympics’ are more your style, then how about getting some fresh air and curling up in a deckchair with some of the best sporting novels around? Seabiscuit: Three Men and a Racehorse Laura Hillenbrand This is a classic story of seeing the potential in the underdog. Seabiscuit has wonky legs and a rather pathetic excuse for a tail but three men spot his potential and help shape this remarkable animal’s future. Who better to ride him than a partially-sighted, half-crippled, failed boxer? It’s a master-class in triumph over adversity that sees the men rescue Seabiscuit from a life of obscurity and transform him into the stuff of legends.
Those who follow Mark Twain’s philosophy that ‘golf is a good walk spoiled’ may be inclined to pick up a five-iron after reading this novel. The story proves that with the right support you can achieve anything. A former golfing champion shows up to compete in a 36-hole showdown against two golfing greats. But the local war hero has one secret weapon: his caddie, Bagger Vance.
Fever Pitch Nick Hornby For football fans and football widows, this semi-autobiographical account of what it means to support a team will have you laughing and crying in equal measures. The author Nick Hornby has been obsessed with Arsenal since before he could say ‘up the Gunners’. Bordering on insanity at times, this memoir charts both the pleasure and the unique pain of dedicating your life to following a football team. It’s a brilliantly witty insight into the working of a young man’s mind.
The Swimmer John Cheever If you’re more inclined to sprint rather than opt for the marathon then this remarkable short story could be for you. Neddy Merrill and his wife are spending a drunken evening hanging around at a friend’s house in the suburbs. He decides that he’s going to swim home via the neighbours’ suburban pools. At first he’s bursting with youthful energy, spurred on by visiting more and more friends, but towards the end of the story he’s drained and in pain until he finally drags himself back home. The story is a strange mixture of realism and surrealism, playing on ideals of the American dream and what happens when the
The Legend of Bagger Vance: A Novel of Golf and the Game of Life Steven Pressfield
seasons change to winter and old age catches up with you. The Loneliness of a LongDistance Runner Alan Sillitoe There’s something so noble about the lone runner, battling the inclement weather like a solitary soldier. This is a story of antiauthoritarianism that will resonate with anyone who ever had to do cross-country running on a wet and windy November morning, in their vest and pants. Set in a reform school, it’s about integrity and going against the system. Stillitoe’s beautiful and moving novel cut an elegant and poised figure in the literary world and inspired a generation. Outside Edge: The Stage Play Richard Harris We couldn’t cover sports without turning the spotlight on cricket. The Outside Edge follows the trials and tribulations of Roger, who’s having trouble putting together a team to face the British Railways Maintenance Division Yeading East. He’s besieged by his club members’ marital problems and hysterical new girlfriends, not to mention his own wife discovering that he’s been ‘playing away’. Make yourself a cricket tea, prepare to laugh out loud…and don’t forget the umbrella! by Daniel Hicks
