By the time you start reading this magazine it will be OK to mention Christmas! In fact it will only be about six weeks away. As usual, I’ve bought the Christmas cards but will they get written and sent? As my children get older it does actually get more difficult to know what gift to buy them. Although all they really want is money to use in the sales! Anyway I have pulled together the shop local gift guide and I hope you might find something you’d like to give as a gift or even to treat yourself with monies received! Have you been inspired by the “Bake Off”? I now make a weekly batch of scones! Attempted chocolate brownies which beat any shop bought ones - in my opinion! Although when I was in Newcastle recently I bought the best raspberry chocolate brownie from a chocolate shop (which I can’t remember the name - sorry) - it was to die for. So that is next on my list of things to try and make. I also picked a whole load of blackberries and have a large collection of ‘free’ jam to eat through for the rest of the year. I am looking for some delivery people again. Cults area (Hillview), Seafield, Countesswells, Queens Cross area and Woodend - if you think you might have some time and want a bit of exercise every other month then email me at mail@gazettemagazines.com put Delivery Job in subject line and any preference to area. It just leaves me to say have a very Merry Christmas and I’ll see you in the New Year. Health, wealth and happiness to all. Until next time,

Sue

Six Tips for Surviving Christmas For many of us, Christmas is a special time to spend with loved ones, brightening the darkest days of the year. Unfortunately, though, it can be fraught with stress, family tensions and too many food or alcohol-based temptations. So how can you survive Christmas? 1 Be Prepared Start adding a few Christmas items to each shopping list now, saving you the stress of a massive, last-minute shop. Only the freshest items need to be purchased just beforehand. Bake, prepare and freeze as much as possible in advance. 2 Go Easy on the Alcohol Alcohol is a calorie-heavy appetite stimulant linked to serious health conditions, which lowers inhibitions and affects judgment - so beware voicing long-standing gripes at Christmas and plan your drinking, ensuring you don’t exceed the recommended weekly maximum of 14 units (now applicable to men and women). Never drink on an empty stomach and match each alcoholic drink with a soft one to help your body handle alcohol’s toxins and dehydrating effects. Alcohol absorption depends on several factors, so no set amount guarantees you’re under the legal drink-drive limit (and Scotland’s is much lower than the rest of the UK’s). Any amount of alcohol affects judgement and reactions. 3 Remember: Christmas Is About Everyone Try to resolve family conflicts (or agree a temporary truce) before the big day. Consider what everyone (including yourself) wants most from Christmas, but remind them compromises will be required. Try to find a few things everyone can enjoy together. Many Christmas adverts portray the exhausted woman, rushing around while everyone else relaxes, as the norm. Don’t let it be. Ensure everyone helps. 4 Be Shrewd with Food Keep a few quick-to-prepare items in stock to feed unexpected visitors, but don’t buy huge quantities

of food. You can always top up later. Food poisoning isn’t festive, so ensure all cooks wash and dry their hands. Frozen foods should be properly defrosted and immediately refrigerated or cooked thoroughly (particularly large poultry or joints of meat). Keep raw foods separate from cooked food. Leave enough room in the fridge for cold air to circulate and don’t leave buffets out for more than 4 hours. Healthy festive food: 1 Removing skin and avoiding butter basting removes around a third of your turkey’s calories and half its fat. 2. Choose low-salt gravy mixes and hide the saltshaker. 3 Swap: 1 sausage meat for vegetarian sausage mix 2 goose fat for healthy oils 3 traditional mince pies for filo or open-top versions 4 brandy butter or cream for low-fat custard or crème fraiche 5 crisps, salted nuts and chocolate for plain popcorn, rice cakes, pretzels, unsalted nuts and homemade chocolate-covered fruit (preferably using dark chocolate) 5 Stay Festive Fit An alarming amount of Christmas hospital admissions are due to excessive or unhealthy eating. Include some ‘normal meals’, avoiding excess sugar and salt. Keep portion size sensible and stop eating just as you start to feel full. Ensure you get a good night’s sleep whenever possible, and stay active: a walk burns calories and the daylight and fresh air will help you feel physically and mentally well. 6 Finally... Keep It in Proportion Christmas Day is only one day; most festivities are centred on just one week out of 52. If the turkey’s burnt, laugh; it’s not what matters most. Keep celebrations simple, focusing on what makes you and your loved ones happy. It’s your Christmas. Relax and enjoy it!

WOODLANDGROVE@ MILLTIMBER - START 2017 IN YOUR NEW LUXURY HOME With the option of being settled into your new home by Christmas, WoodlandGrove@ Milltimber offers the ideal combination of prestigious location, quality lifestyle, and easy access to world-class leisure and travel facilities. The luxury development of two-bedroom apartments for buyers aged 55 and over lies in the heart of the affluent suburb of Milltimber. Westhill’s internationally-renowned subsea centre of excellence is only a 15 minute drive away; with Aberdeen’s city centre and the world-class Prime Four business park, within easy reach too. There are excellent sporting and leisure facilities close by, including Peterculter and Deeside Golf Clubs, as well as Kippie Lodge sports and country club, and the David Lloyd Club. There are also spas at the nearby Marcliffe and Mercure Aberdeen Ardoe House hotels. Christine MacDonald, Woodland Grove’s sales advisor, said: “With the festive season approaching, the advantage of Woodland Grove’s central location giving easy access to amenities, cities, and towns across the region will become even more obvious. “If you’re spending the festive season with family elsewhere, or jetting off to get some winter sun, there are excellent road, rail and air links for domestic and international travel.”

compromising on social space for entertaining family and friends over Christmas – or any time of the year. Energy efficiency and reducing emissions have been front of mind throughout the construction process, so these luxury apartments are cheaper to run, and better for the environment compared with the average Scottish home. Christine said: “With an EPC B band rating and estimated yearly heating, light and hot water costs of around £400, homeowners can potentially save hundreds of pounds on energy bills.” Each apartment has its own individual design: offering outstanding comfort and style including superior finishes, light and spacious lounges, and designer kitchens with highquality appliances. Set in stunning, maintained grounds, the apartments - each with a substantial private balcony or terrace - have lift access to all levels. There is allocated residents parking, and ample visitor spaces. All homes have a door entry security video system, and the complex has two owners’ lounges, acting as a community hub, and playing host to a range of activities. Price start from £295,000.

Party pick-me-ups Kate Duggan: www.easilyeco.co.uk

Feeling a bit partied out and ready to just curl up with Netflix and a mug of hot chocolate? Our beauty picks this month will soon have you back on your feet and ready to hit the town. First up, Urban Veda’s Radiance Body Ritual collection. Just opening the drawstring bag is a treat. The products all smell amazing – they’re packed with nourishing, fragrant ingredients, including orange oil, turmeric and papaya, so it’s like breathing in the scent of holidays. With a body scrub, body wash and body lotion, you just need to light a candle to create a home spa experience. And they really do leave your skin and spirits feeling rejuvenated. £34.99, www.urbanveda.co.uk. Looking to get some of that summer glow back? Green People’s Self-Tan, £21, is one of the best fake tans on the market. It’s easy to apply, and develops into a natural looking tan within three hours. As an added bonus, it doesn’t have that typical fake tan smell, and it contains rosehip oil to moisturise as it tans. As with any fake tan, you’ll want to leave at least 24 hours between hair removal and application. It’s also a good idea to exfoliate with a good body scrub beforehand. Massage in a light body lotion, and give it time to sink in. Then work some extra moisturiser into your knees, elbows and other ‘knobbly’ bits, to help avoid darker patches. See www.greenpeople.co.uk. If your hair is looking a bit frazzled and fed up with all that styling, try treating it to an Ouai Treatment Masque. It takes just 10 minutes for the treatment to soothe and restore your weary locks, leaving them smoother and shinier after just one use. A pack of eight sachets will set you back £25, so it’s not cheap, but worth having in your beauty arsenal for big nights out. See www.spacenk.com. I don’t know whether the eyes truly are the windows to the soul, but they’re certainly a tattle tale when it comes to late nights. Try Anatomicals Puffy the Eye Bag Slayer Wake Up Under Eye Patches. Three pairs cost around £6 from Amazon or www.glossybox.co.uk. They feel incredibly soothing, and do seem to reduce swelling in just half an hour. Cover up any remaining dark circles with Dry Eye Concealer, £11.95, from www.skinshop.co.uk. While the coverage isn’t quite as flawless as some concealers, it makes up for it by helping to moisturise and repair skin. It also goes on smoothly and doesn’t draw attention to fine lines, puffy eyes or dry skin. You can also use the Dry Eye Concealer to calm and cover small patches of eczema and other areas of irritation. Sometimes a spritz of perfume is all you need to perk yourself up before pulling on your heels. Jo Malone are known for their quirky fragrance combinations, and their latest cologne, Basil and Neroli, is no different. It’s got that lovely freshness of neroli, with a herby twist. Playful and warm, the fragrance just seems to improve as the night goes on. Expect plenty of compliments. £43 for 30ml, www.jomalone.co.uk.

As the latest celebrity split shock wave continues to ripple across the gossip columns debating the true reasons behind the demise of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s marriage, there are many normal couples dealing with divorce and the issues that surround it.

Often the main pension holder and breadwinner is the husband and the wife is awarded a one-off lump sum or matrimonial home rather than a regular income to prepare them for retirement. As this is a relatively simple division, many are tempted to accept it but it remains vital that both parties seek impartial specialist advice, as while the matrimonial home may seem like the most attractive asset, it is rarely the case and provides relatively little long-term security for the future. Inevitably divorce is an incredibly emotional and often

All my work is undertaken with high quality materials, and all print editions are limited to no more than 95, as I feel the amount of time and effort in creating each piece is something which should be kept as special as possible! I regularly undertake commissions, so if you are interested in a one off piece of work, I am always happy to create something special, just for you!

The Victoria Falls

In November 1855, a Scottish missionary sailing down the Zambezi was the first European to set eyes on the awesome falls, long known to the natives as ‘the smoke that thunders’. “Scenes like this,” he mused, “must have been gazed upon by angels on their flight.” His name was David Livingstone and he called the falls ‘Victoria’ to honour his Queen. Stretching 1.7 km across Zambia and Zimbabwe, reaching a height of 108 metres, twice that of Niagara, and pouring an average of 550 million litres of water a minute, the Victoria Falls defy imagination and, with all statistics combined, they are the largest in the world. Mist and spray are visible for 20 km around. Surprisingly this mighty phenomenon does not occur on mountainous terrain but on flat land. It all started millions of years ago when earthquakes created faults in the old lava sheet and as soft material filled up the cracks, the river forced its way through, carving out over time

26

the eight zigzagging gorges we see today. But nature is not set in stone and the great Zambezi continues its work, protected by UNESCO and national parks on both sides of the border. Most visitors view the falls from the Zambian side, where the Eastern Cataract brings the first heart-stopping moment as roaring waters plunge over the edge and the placid upper river continues to flow unaware towards the precipice. But just feet away, the great mass of water tumbles into the ‘boiling pot’, trapped in a massive swirl as it struggles to escape through the tightest of bends. A long flight of slippery steps leads down to the cauldron’s edge, a spine-chilling place where baboons bare their teeth and you might shudder at the sight of a crocodile swept over the edge. Up on the top, those who dare bathe in the death-defying Devil’s Pool on Livingstone Island, where the explorer measured the drop with a bullet attached to a piece of string. Meanwhile, along the Knife’s Edge Bridge suspended in mid-air, strange poncho-clad creatures crawl like

aliens across the face of the fall, soaked to the skin but gazing, exhilarated, at the force of the water and the giant rainbow over the Victoria Bridge which spans the deep river chasm. Opened in 1905, the bridge was built in England, shipped to Mozambique and assembled at the site in 14 months. Trucks and trains cross it at a snail’s pace and it marks the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe claims over two-thirds of the falls with 16 breathtaking viewpoints along sign-posted trails which meander through pristine rainforest to reveal the entirety of the falls: Devil’s Cataract, Main Falls, Horseshoe, Rainbow (the highest), then looking right across the bridge into Zambia. There are fewer visitors on this side and along with birds and butterflies, you might spot antelopes, bushbucks and other game. A statue of Livingstone looks down on it all, perhaps pleased that here, the water never dries. It’s different in Zambia when around October-

November, the falls can dry up, breaking up the magnificent curtain of water into narrow streams and exposing the rock face, but on the other hand, Zambia claims the best viewing spots to enjoy the full moon. On a clear night, a magical lunar rainbow, or ‘moonbow’, appears over the water, ghostly and pale to the naked eye, but a good camera might capture the colours and one of the most enduring memories of the Victoria Falls.

Affordable luxury home wares, interiors and gifts are making their way to The Courtyard, Cults, this winter. Local resident Sonya Angus, a former buyer of fashion at Edinburgh’s high-end department store Jenners, has launched a stylish, quirky and cosy boutique, full of beautiful and unusual pieces unlikely to be found elsewhere in the area. Named after its charismatic and charming owner, the shop will be open Monday to Saturday, between 10am and 5pm but, during December, shoppers after a treat or two are invited to toast to the launch with owner Sonya at special evening events. The exciting new space will also act as a base for Prêt A Porter, Sonya’s discreet, personal and fun fashion advisory brand. The totally tailored service for ‘remerchandising’ your wardrobe has gained a considerable following in Aberdeen and Edinburgh over the last few years. It will also promote Sonya’s bespoke home styling offering, which has recently taken Cults by storm; from updating a room to preparing a house for sale. Edinburgh born-and-bred Sonya has lived in the north-east since 2012 and quickly become a valued member of the neighbourhood; an elder at Cults Parish Church, an active Parent Council member and enthusiastic volunteer at Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland. She brought the North Deeside Road shop into the spotlight, helping secure Shop Team of the Year at the UK-wide Charity Retail Association Awards earlier this year. Going back in time, Sonya started her retail career in Edinburgh, aged 15, selling jewellery and Christian Dior tights in an exclusive boutique; learning her craft from the best without realising. Following her dreams, at 19 she pipped keen 23-year-old graduates to the post to secure a traineeship in Jenners and by 21 was their youngest assistant buyer. She was there until her early thirties, working across linen, menswear, ladieswear and childrenswear, managing million pound budgets, travelling the world and rubbing shoulders with brands like Ralph Lauren, Hugo Boss, DKNY, Moschino and Diesel. A move to Australia beckoned and, here, she discovered her ‘golden touch’ for styling homes, as well as people, working as linen and homeware buyer for a 40-store brand. On her return to Edinburgh, she was part of the launch team for Molton Brown’s flagship Edinburgh store and, after hosting a ‘Gok Wan’-style evening for an audience of 500, developed Prêt A Porter. She brought the growing brand with her to Aberdeen, developed the home styling arm and has now started fulfilling her dream of owning her very own shop, hoping to fill a gap in the local market and time her offering perfectly for the influx of new housing developments in the area. Sonya Angus Prêt A Porter will open between 5 and 8pm on Thursday 8 and 15 December for special launch events, with complimentary canapés and fizz. Thursday 22 December will be a gents special, with beers on hand and an opportunity for last minute stocking filler shopping.
