In this issue…

to the June edition of the Romsey and Wellow Gazette.

This month we have the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations which means we have a long bank holiday. There are events organised in most towns and villages to include everyone. We just need to keep fingers and toes crossed for good weather!!! As usual this month’s magazines has articles from The Anorak Man and Surinder Bellamy – both of whom have been contributing to our publications for many years now, for which we are extremely grateful. Ben Hall is our latest regular contributor, and this month he is telling us about Urban Myths – see page 20. The Romsey and Wellow Gazette is one of five in our series of publications – others covering the Andover, Eastleigh, Test Valley, Totton and Wellow areas. If you would like to see sample copies of any of our other magazines, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

FORTHCOMING SHOWS AT

Forthcoming shows at Romsey’s Plaza Theatre include the Footlights Youth Theatre’s presentation of Sweet Charity and a presentation of of Alan Bennett’s Habeas Corpus by The Romsey Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society (RAODS). Sweet Charity, which will be presented from July 10th to 14th at 7.30pm each day, with a additional show at 2.30pm on July 14th, will give the audience the chance to discover the romantic misadventures of Charity Hope Valentine, the gregarious, gullible and guileless girl who repeatedly gives her heart and her dreams to the wrong men.

sister, Connie is obsessed with developing her flat chest and makes a plan to help nature along and there are plenty of offers to give her a helping hand! Will the doctor get away with his clumsy attempts at seduction? Will Canon Throbbing, the randy local vicar, still be left unsatisfied? Will Connie’s new extensive bust land her the man of her dreams? Will the despairing Mr Purdue finally pop his cork? There’s only one way to find out! Further details of these two and other shows due to take place at The Plaza can be seen at www. plazatheatre.com and on-line ticket booking can be carried out at www.ticketsource.co.uk/ plazatheatre.

Accompanied by a host of outrageously colourful characters and a show-stopping score featuring The Rhythm of Life, Dream Your Dream and Big Spender, this musical promises to be an evening to remember for all the family. Twenty two years after RAODS first performed it, from July 17th to 21st they will be returning to Habeas Corpus, the hilariously entertaining, bawdy picture postcard comedy that combines the fast-paced fun of a classic farce with Bennett’s unmistakably dry Northern wit. It’s a balmy summer afternoon, and a variety of upper middle class residents are certainly feeling the heat. The sex-mad Dr Arthur Wicksteed is caught in a compromising position with a gorgeous young patient. His wife, Muriel craves the reawakening of her passion – with anyone from a travelling salesman to her husband’s bitter rival. While Arthur’s

Parking in Test Valley – Is There a Better Way? asks Angela Wilbraham, Community Manager of inspiredcommunity.co.uk Our recent article on Inspired Community about the problem with parking in Test Valley prompted a lot of discussion, including some very interesting revenue figures and a response from Test Valley Borough Council. This is the original article and if you want to see, or have your say in the discussion, go to blogs on www. inspiredcommunity.co.uk and look for the article. It’s not something I noticed particularly until I started going into Andover and Romsey frequently for meetings about Inspired Community, but paying for parking is a pain! What prompted my thoughts on this issue was getting a parking ticket a couple of weeks ago. I am not at all complaining about getting a ticket – I deserved it as I overstayed and those are the rules. What I am suggesting, however, is that the rules could be made to suit frequent visitors better. As it is now you have to decide as soon as you park how long you are going to stay for, and you have to have the exact change otherwise you end up overpaying. But I have had many times when I have decided an hour is long enough for my meeting and I’ve ended up having some great conversations that are difficult to cut short (or even to look at my watch to know what time it is as it’s easy to lose track) and so I find I overstay the time on my ticket. Or on other occasions I opt to pay for more time and find I’m only half an hour so I’ve wasted money. And because I can go in a couple of times a day several times a week, having enough change is a constant problem. So I end up overpaying but not getting any more time for it.

- Either provide change or give us longer based on the extra we pay when we don’t have the right change - Even better, allow us to pay when we’re ready to leave so we don’t have to guess beforehand how long we’re going to be and we can pay for what we use - Possibly harder to implement, let us pay with a card – like an Oyster card for the London Underground – where we can top up the balance on the card and when we leave the car park it deducts the correct amount Now of course there are always reasons why things are done a certain way which aren’t always clear if you are not involved in the decision making. But it seems logical to me that if the pricing policy is not just about revenue generation but rather about providing a service to local tax payers, finding improvements to the way we pay for parking would be a worthwhile consideration. What are your opinions? Do you have issues with parking or do you think the system works as it is? For more local Test Valley articles, as well as local videos, event listings, and a groups section designed to help local organisations raise their profile and grow membership, take a look at www.inspiredcommunity.co.uk, or call Angela on 01264-710 033.

Suggestions for Test Valley Borough Council So if Test Valley Borough Council were ever to reconsider its approach to charging us for parking, here are some suggestions that could make it easier for frequent visitors –

A Taste Of Italy Comes To Romsey Opened on Saturday 2nd June, Sundae’s Child in Bell Street offers an exciting selection of homemade luxury ice creams, sorbets, frozen yogurt and gelato as well as a range of hot and cold beverages. Proprietor Karen Allen fell in love with the unique Italian ice cream whilst on holiday with her family in Sardinia. “Everybody loves ice cream,” she claims, “and somehow the Italians do it that little bit better. Having learned some of their secrets, I want to bring that special experience to Romsey.” Karen makes sixteen flavours, which change on a regular basis and are served in waffle cones or in tubs. Customers can also sample her ice cream sundaes, lollies and ice cream cakes or enjoy her special

milkshakes and smoothies. Locally sourced ingredients are a key feature of Sundae’s Child recipes. Contacts made through the local Farmers’ Markets supply fresh fruits and juices and all cakes are baked locally. “I’m hoping that Sundae’s Child will become an integral part of the Romsey experience,” says Karen, and “I’m hoping that everything – from the delicious and unusual food to the warm and friendly atmosphere – will make people want to come back time and time again.”

Ben Harris talks about

URBAN MYTHS

Carrots let you see in the dark, goldfish have a three second memory and the only man-made object visible from space is the Great Wall of China - all great trivia facts that everyone knows, right? Wrong! In fact none of these are true at all! They are what are known as urban legends, and are just a few examples of a long list of strange and quirky myths that we all accept as known truths. In actual fact, the myth about carrots was started by the RAF during World War II to hide the fact that the British had started to use radar, thus enabling them to effectively see in the dark! A fake story was printed in the newspapers owing their new found effectiveness at night flying to the consumption of carrots – deliberately misinforming the public and in turn the enemy! Goldfish have perfectly normal memories, and scientists have proven that they remember things for up to six months.

By definition an urban legend is a second hand story that is just plausible enough to be believable, but presented as truth. It is usually based on a statistic or ironic story that is so compelling you can’t help but memorise it and repeat it to your friends, and before too long they become viral. The internet has certainly made it much easier to spread these fascinating untruths, and perhaps the best example of this is the fact that you accidentally swallow about eight spiders a year in your sleep. Is this true? Absolutely not! Spiders have a natural instinct to stay alive and crawling into a snoring mouth would be extremely unlikely. In fact, this non-fact was deliberately created by a journalist in 1993 to prove that you could make up anything on the internet and people would believe it – how right she was! Finally here are few more popular urban legends that we can put to bed - sugar does not cause hyperactivity in children; shaving doesn’t make your hair grow back thicker; going out with wet hair doesn’t mean you will catch a cold; elephants are not the only mammal unable to jump, and, believe it or not, there is absolutely no truth whatsoever in the myth that lemmings voluntarily leap to their deaths from cliff tops. This particular one was actually created by Disney! These urban myths are certainly unusual, funny and sometimes shocking. But what is amazing is that so many people believe them and pass them on. Perhaps the strangest thing is that I still want to believe them all!

As for the Great Wall of China, you would actually need eyesight 17,000 times better than normal 20/20 vision to see it from the moon! And despite this myth being debunked many years ago, it is still repeated as fact by nearly everyone.

Summer at Wimbledon It’s Wimbledon again, I’m feeling anxious, very fraught, The pressure’s on again, it always is, on Centre Court, The linesman has a guide dog and the umpire’s ninety three, My opponent’s using gamesmanship; it’s really bothering me, He queries almost everything; we’re stuck again at deuce, The umpire is agreeing! What’s all this? The man’s obtuse, So many bad decisions, and so many dodgy calls, If he carries on, it won’t be me who needs some brand new balls, Now it’s getting cloudy, and of course, here comes the rain, It seems that we’ll be heading to the changing rooms again, I’m thinking things can’t get much worse, and then, to my chagrin, As I scuttle off the court, I hear Cliff Richard start to sing…

Surinder Bellamy tells how to

LOSE WEIGHT IN TIME FOR SUMMER! If you’ve got your summer holiday booked or are planning to have a week or two in the sun, then there’s still some time to make some changes to diet and exercise if you want to lose a few pounds and shape up before getting into those summer clothes. Toning up the muscles to have a firmer body and burning off as much excess fat as possible are what’s needed. However, most people confuse weight-loss on the scales with actual fat-loss, but this often isn’t the case. When you weigh yourself, you are weighing your total body weight, which includes all of you – your bones, your muscle tendons and ligaments, your fat and your water content and everything that’s contained inside your skin. Trying to lose ‘weight’ is really about reducing body fat, whilst preserving muscle mass. Often weight-loss achieved through dieting is a result of fluid and muscle loss, as well as fat. It is important when on a weight-reducing programme to make sure that you are only losing fat and not water and muscle. There are three main elements of a good weightloss programme that will help you build muscle, burn calories and stay healthy. These are cardiovascular exercise, strength training and a healthy eating plan that you can follow. Stretching would be incorporated into your cardio and strength work. Warming up and stretching before and especially after a work out is important because, as it helps prevent injury and because muscles contract during exercise and stretching afterwards lengthens them back out again and prevents tight muscles and future problems. Before you start it’s also a good idea to check with your doctor and get the all clear, especially for cardiovascular work, which takes your heart rate up and can impact on the joints. Once you’ve done that, then all that you need to get started is to set aside 3060 minutes, 4-6 times a week. Put it into your diary or on your calendar and stick to it. Decide whether you’re going to do this first thing in the morning, in your lunch hour or in the evening - then do it.

Once you’ve decided when to exercise, make sure you have a good pair of trainers, a sports bra (for the ladies) and loose, comfortable clothing. To burn calories, you’ll need to do cardio for at least 30 minutes, 4-6 days each week. Choosing something you enjoy (or at least don’t mind) is more important than trying to make yourself do something you dislike. Intensity, duration and the type of activity is also something to keep in mind. Power-walking, jogging, and running are the same type of activity but the intensity varies greatly. Bear in mind also whether you can support your bodyweight for the required length of time, in which case consider swimming or cycling. There are so many activities to do – dancing, tennis, golf, and many other sports that include a social element or interaction with another person. As well as doing cardio, strength training is an essential part of weight-loss to build lean muscle and raise your metabolism. Many people overlook the importance of strength (weight) training in a weightloss programme and some women still believe that it will give them big muscles or that it is only for men. However the after-effects of strength-training in burning calories last much longer than after doing cardio. This is because the body has to burn calories in repairing muscles. You will adapt to your exercise as your fitness improves, so it’s important to have the right eating plan. You must constantly aim to burn more calories than you eat so be prepared to make changes to your diet. Try to think in terms of health and nutrition and aim to eat from all of the food groups each day. These are complex carbohydrates, proteins, vegetables, fruits and dairy. It will help to remember the following – • Don’t skip meals and never skip breakfast! This actually slows down your metabolism, which means your body is burning fewer calories.

C o p y D a te fo r t h e n ex t i s s u e – 18 t h J u n e 2 012

Is s u e 215 – J u n e 2 012

• Drink more water. Staying hydrated stops you feeling hungry and is important during and after exercise to replace lost fluid. • Watch your portion sizes. Many people eat quite well, but they simply eat more than their bodies require. You can continue to eat the foods you like - just in smaller amounts. • Watch out for low-fat or light products in the supermarkets as these can often be high in sugar. • Eat high fibre, low calories foods that can add bulk to your diet and fill your plate like vegetables and most fruits. With exercise and healthy activity every little bit helps and doing something is always better than doing nothing, so get those trainers on and enjoy a fit and healthy summer!

Pan-Fried Cod with Broad Beans and Pancetta

Cooking with Ian

Ian Wooldridge, Head Chef, at Kimbridge Farm, near Romsey with your Seasonal Produce Recipe

Make the most of broad beans during their short season with this quick, but sophisticated fish dish. This recipe serves four.

Shopping List -

400 grams of podded broad beans (weight with pods approx 1.6Kg) A little salt

125 grams of pancetta, cut into strips

4 cod fillets, skin-on, 125 grams each

200 grams of crème fraiche

40 grams of salted butter

Half a 25 gram packet of fresh dill

Large handful of parsley,

Salt & freshly milled black pepper Firstly, blanch the podded broad beans in a pan of lightly salted boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and then plunge the beans into cold water. Larger or older (late season) broad beans will now need their membranes peeled off. Next, heat a frying pan and add the pancetta strips. There isn’t a need to add any additional fat or oil. Fry until the fat from the pancetta is rendered and it becomes crisp. Add the blanched broad beans to the pan, constantly stirring until tender. Now stir in the crème fraiche. Discard the thicker storks from the dill and chop the rest finely, then add to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. In a separate pan, heat a little olive oil. Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper and place skin-side down into the pan. Fry for approximately 3 minutes until the skin is crisp. Turn the fillets over and add the butter (10g each) and

Olive oil

finely chopped cook for a further 2 to 3 minutes until they are cooked through, basting them with the butter as you go. The cod is cooked when it breaks easily with a fork. Depending on the size of the pan, you can do this one or more at a time. To serve, share the broad bean mixture between four plates and place the cod skin-side up on top. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. A bowl of buttered new potatoes or sauté potatoes would be a good accompaniment.

The Anorak Man talks about FIRST AID It was a long time ago when I enrolled for my first course in First Aid. I was very nervous, especially as all the others seemed to be so good at it. My early attempts at mouth to mouth resuscitation were not good as I all I managed to do was produce strange noises when I tried to blow air into the dummy’s mouth. The instructor told me that I should be making the dummy’s chest rise and not be blowing raspberries. The dummy also made strange noises when I practiced my chest compressions and it made me laugh so much I couldn’t go on. I was later told that I put too much effort into my chest compressions and damaged something in the dummy’s interior! The instructor taught me to be more gentle with the poor dummy and I eventually got my certificate and the instructor got a new dummy.

My second course was the day after a long flight back from Australia and I was suffering from jet lag. A sleepy feeling came over me and I dozed off and knocked my desk over. Everyone turned round looking very startled at me thinking it was part of the course and I needed resuscitating!!! It’s been over ten years since my last course and I thought it was time for me to have another go, as not only had I forgotten much of the basic training but I needed to find out all the latest changes in techniques;. it was beginning to worry me that if someone collapsed in front of me I wouldn’t know what to do. No problem now though. After a days learning I soon picked up the latest first aid techniques and I am now confident that I will be able to handle an emergency situation. Oh, and the dummy survived my efforts at resuscitating it this time. If you are worried that you won’t be able to cope in an emergency, why not enroll for a first aid course, you won’t regret it.

Coping with Bereavement says Francesca Mettam Losing someone through death is something we all know is a fact of life, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean it is always easy to cope with. Pain, embarrassment and not knowing what to say, make it a subject which people tend to avoid and when we are grieving, it can feel as if there is no one who understands what we are going through. When someone we love, know or care about dies, it can be a tremendous shock, even when we know it is about to happen. If the death is sudden and unexpected it can be even more difficult to accept. Furthermore if the relationship with the person who died was difficult, this can produce even more conflicting emotions. We all have to experience the loss of people we care about at some point in our lives and that pain is the price we pay for loving and being loved. Those first weeks and months are difficult and emotionally exhausting but somehow we get through it. Sometimes though we can become stuck somewhere in the process of grieving; it can feel as if nothing is any clearer and the pain is as raw as it was the day we lost that person. When this happens, having someone to talk to about this experience can help. Often, when we are grieving, we experience emotions that are completely unexpected such as anger, frustration, guilt shame or relief. It can be difficult to admit these feelings to others, for fear of shocking them or burdening them with our emotions. Grief can affect us physically too, a poor appetite, lack of sleep and emotional exhaustion may add to your distress and make it difficult to see the way forward. Concentration and decision making may be affected, which in itself can be very distressing and add to feelings

of helplessness and depression. At Wings Counselling we can help you to talk through the difficult and painful feelings and thoughts that you may be experiencing, and find a way to make sense of them. Grieving is a process but there is no right or wrong way to experience it. Each one of us has to find our own way and an understanding, experienced counsellor can listen to the thoughts and feelings, worries and fears which cannot be shared with family or friends and through this help you to begin to look to the future again. If you would like to talk to someone about your experience of bereavement or any of the issues discussed here, then please contact me at Wings Counselling. Telephone number 01794-511554, email address info@ wingscounselling.com. Francesca Mettam, MBACP ACCRED. UKRCP, Registered. Counsellor
