Vulcan Drifter bike makes its stage debut All Shook Up is a unique take on the rock n roll era, with actors Josh Holliday and Adam Walker taking on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and some of Elvis’ biggest hits as they transport you back to 1950s Midwest America.

Motorcycle enthusiast Steve Badger, of SD Motorcycles in Chesterfield, is responsible for loaning the bike to the Woodseats Theatre Company. The Vulcan Drifter is based on the Indian Chief Motorcycle, famously owned by Hollywood legends James Dean and Clark Gable.

You can see the production of All Shook Up on 12 – 15 July at the Montgomery Theatre.

Peter King is the man the St Luke’s Hospice Woodseats shop turn to when they receive donations of watches and clocks which don’t work.

Rather than letting time slip through his fingers, he has repaired more than 500 watches - and quite a few clocks as well - and put them back in working order ready for sale.

Peter’s wife was cared for by St Luke’s before she died in 2013 – and not long after he became a volunteer, utilising the skills he had developed in a lifetime working in precision engineering.

The Crystal Peaks launch is part of a rapid expansion programme that aims to see Crawshaw’s meet a target of 200 stores nationwide.

Crawshaw’s was launched in Yorkshire in 1954 and over the following 60 years it has grown to become the UK’s leading fresh meat retailer.

The new store in one of the centre’s exterior units will be opening next to McDonald’s and opposite Sainsbury’s.

The home of quality FROM STUNNING HAND-CRAFTED KITCHENS TO BESPOKE FURNITURE, DAVID J MARTIN’S ATTENTION TO DETAIL PRODUCES BEAUTIFUL RESULTS. n these days of mass produced furniture it seems almost impossible to find beautiful bespoke, handmade pieces, whether that be for your kitchen, bedroom, study or lounge. At David J Martin customers are welcomed into the firm’s on-site workshop, to see their furniture come to life.

“People often don’t believe that the workshop is here, under the showroom” said owner David Martin. “Then we bring them downstairs and they’re blown away.”

There’s a team of eight, highly trained carpenters working on kitchen cabinets and islands, bedroom furniture, desks and study furniture, each one made unique to order.

David himself is a carpenter by trade, training for years before completing a degree in the subject. He ensures his staff are trained to the highest standard, resulting in the finest quality products. Everything at David J Martin happens under one roof, so David himself can check the quality and finish of each product at every stage of the process.

“Our attention to detail is second to none and this makes us stand out from the crowd,” said David. “We are not held to ransom by mass-produced products as we make everything from scratch – even down to making our own cutters for producing mouldings.”

This means you can add to your kitchen in years to come and the company will still be able to match the designs.

In the David J Martin showroom, a stunning range of kitchens is on display, but the company also produces bespoke furniture for every room in the house. For the bedroom, the company builds beautiful wardrobes, and other unique storage solutions

for difficult spaces. For the study, David’s team of carpenters can build desks and media spaces.

After an initial customer consultation, when David will discuss budgets and offer expert design advice, the cabinetmakers work from plans drawn by David and create bespoke furniture, which can be sprayed to high gloss or satin finishes using durable Two Pac paint.

With larger companies, you will often see doors advertised as having a ‘high-gloss finish’. This means that they are vinylwrapped and, although this does produce a shiny look, it means that you will be able to see the joins.

David J Martin’s professional sprayer can apply any colour you wish in their paintspraying booth, giving a modern finish with no joins. That means water cannot seep in and cause peeling – something that can happen

David J Martin 210 Springvale Road, Sheffield, S6 3NU Tel: 0114 268 6718 www.david-j-martin.co.uk

with vinyl-wrapped doors. Everything is done in-house, which enables David to guarantee high quality at every stage.

For those customers undertaking full refurbishment of their home, David J Martin can provide a one-stop shop for structural, plumbing and electricity work, as well as building furniture.

David said: “We run a building company alongside our bespoke joinery company, so customers are not waiting for plumbers, electricians and so on. We can take care of everything and ensure that the project is completed to the highest standard.”

For David it’s all about creating a high quality customer experience, whether the job be big or small. One call to David J Martin could result in a stunning new extension, complete with kitchen, plumbing and electricity – David only employs the best tradesmen.

In the company’s 37 years of trading, David J Martin has built a superb reputation for customer satisfaction. The company is highly regarded for their customer and after-sales service, ensuring that every customer is a happy one and fixing any problems with their furniture, whether that be two weeks or ten years down the line.

For more information, or to see what is on offer, call 0114 268 6718 or check out the website www.david-j-martin.co.uk.

Time to unwind SWAP THE STRESS OF THE CITY FOR THE STUNNING SHROPSHIRE COUNTRYSIDE AT FISHMORE HOTEL & SPA. NOW’S THE PERFECT TIME TO INDULGE. t was a case of who would go first.

There it was, glistening in the afternoon sun, tempting us after a stint in the sauna and steam room at Fishmore Hall’s new SPAshell facility. You go first, no you, no, I insist… after much to-ing and froing and umming and aahing – and chivalry on

I

12 Image | www.imagemagazine.co.uk

my behalf it has to be noted – my wife and I decided to jump in the Scandi-style cedar wellness pool instead. The ice bucket would have to wait.

In the end it was a good choice; I didn’t really need waking up after an extremely indulgent and relaxing back, neck and shoulder massage in one of the spa’s four treatment rooms, I was quite happy to be in full chill out mode.

I’m sure my wife did too, after her ELEMIS facial and scalp massage. And what a view as well; it’s not often you can plonk yourself in a hot tub outside with the sun shining and such views afforded to us as the Shropshire countryside and Clee Hills. Even the cows

in the field opposite look totally relaxed – maybe the new spa is rubbing off on them too.

It’s a stunning addition to the privatelyowned Ludlow hotel, which has recently been voted the Best Hotel in the Heart of England

by Best Loved Hotels. The contemporary, almost cuboid design – which was delivered on the back of a truck and put together like giant Lego bricks – is in stark contrast to the Georgian main building. But, with its larch wood exterior and full-length windows, it blends perfectly into its surroundings. Inside it’s compact and well thought out with a comfortable lounge overlooking the gardens, luxury changing rooms as well as those previously-mentioned treatment rooms, sauna and steam room. We didn’t want to leave.

Travel

www.rmcmedia.co.uk / @ImageRMC

Inside the 15-room hotel, the bedrooms are spacious and well-designed with luxury bathrooms to match – ours had a huge bath as well as a walk-in shower, the perfect place to unwind and put on your finery before experiencing Fishmore Hall’s acclaimed 3 AA Rosette restaurant, Forelles.

Head chef Andrew Birch has built up quite the following from far and wide and prides himself on choosing the majority of ingredients from within a 30-mile radius of the hotel. His show-stopping six and ninecourse tasting menus are perfect for a celebration, or just to indulge your foodie cravings if you feel like it.

And indulge you must, as this was food of the highest order. We opted for the six-course version and were blown away. From the pigs head croquette canapés served at our table in the orangery to the petit fours taken in the lounge, we couldn’t fault a thing. Stand-out dishes included scallop served with ras el hanout, cauliflower, apple and coriander; venison served with cavolo nero, artichoke, chestnuts and chanterelles and a chocolate delice with salted caramel and almond ice cream. Service throughout was immaculate.

After a good night’s sleep in the comfiest of beds, a hearty breakfast was just what you needed before taking a ten-minute drive into the centre of Ludlow to wander around the many independent shops, delis and antique centres. There’s also the famed castle and river should you wish to explore further.

Of course you may find it too difficult to leave such lush surroundings as those at Fishmore Hall, but if you need sparking into life, you could always take the ice bucket challenge.

The contemporary, almost cuboid design – which was delivered on the back of a truck and put together like giant Lego bricks – is in stark contrast to the Georgian main building. But, with its larch wood exterior and full-length windows, it blends perfectly into its surroundings.

DETAILS: • Bed and breakfast stays at Fishmore Hall start from £175 per room, per night.

• You can use the facilities at SPAshell for £15, with treatments starting from £45.

• The six-course tasting menu is priced at £65 per person.

Wards’ guide to enjoying a successful summer garden PREPARE YOUR GARDEN FOR THE NEW SEASON USING THESE HINTS AND TIPS

FLOWERS, TREES AND SHRUBS OF THE MONTH 1 Hydrangea Petiolaris 'Silver Lining' is a new climbing cultivar. It is very similar in most respects to the species, but instead of the normally deep green leaves, the foliage of this one has a very pretty variegation.

Tolerant of some shade, and with a little support it is ideal for lighting up a dark wall or corner, and the flowers when they appear in midsummer will put on a wonderful display.

2 Hydrangea macrophylla are popular garden shrubs with delicate heads of flowers in shades of pink, white or blue.

3 Plant beautiful Royalty Hydrangeas now for an eye-

WEEDS 1 Make sure beds don’t drown in weeds. Wards stock a range of ready to use weed killer, including Weedol® and Roundup®, and tougher weed killers, including SBK®: for the effective control of brambles, thistles, nettles, dock, woody weeds, unwanted saplings and tree stumps, and Neudorff: a super-fast, long lasting, bio degradable herbicide that works against problematic weeds such as goutweed, field horsetail, mosses and algae.

2 Wards stock a range of heavy duty weed control fabric (up to 2m wide) for use on beds and borders.

3 Hoe borders to prevent annual and perennial weeds from spreading and seeding themselves. Wards stock a range of halfmoon edging irons, sharp spades and hoes.

catching display throughout summer.

4 ‘Inca’ Alstroemerias (sometimes called Peruvian Lilies) are slightly shorter but will also give long enough stems for cut flowers. Happy in containers, borders or the garden bed, ‘Inca’ Alstroemeria are such versatile plants, they will also thrive in large patio containers.

5 Alstroemeria (Princess Diana, Lauren, Lillian, Fabiana, Paola, Eliane, Dwarf Alstroemeria) Masses of glorious flowers from mid-Summer through to late autumn. Princess Lilies have a superb, compact habit, perfect in the bed or patio containers. Also excellent for brightening-up summer borders.

Makes a good cut flower. Hardy and perennial in a well-drained position.

PONDS 1 Once new plantings have established, you can start to carefully introduce new fish.

Start stocking and feeding when the water is warm.

2 Don’t leave fish sitting in plastic bags full of water get them in to the pond as soon as possible so that they have a sufficient supply of oxygen. However it pays to float the bags in the pond for ten minutes, to allow the water temperatures to equalise.

3 Continue to remove unwanted weed.

4 Make sure pumps are working adequately – if not, clean or buy a new one.

JOBS TO DO DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS 1 Plant out summer bedding and seed-raised plants, if not already done so. Make sure they are well watered and keep moist during dry weather.

2 Liquid feed containerised plants every two to four weeks. Wards stock a range of easy/ready to use plant food and dilution attachments, including Miracle-Gro®.

3 Be water-wise, especially in drought-affected areas. Used correctly and with water-wise gardening, a water butt will provide all the water you need to keep your garden alive throughout the long hot summer months. Always use a lid on water butts for safety reasons.

4 Wards stock a range of micro irrigation systems, designed to precisely release water to the roots of plants. Because the drip emitters release water slowly, you have greater control of the amount of water being delivered, eliminating water waste.

These are ideal for borders and flower beds, vegetable patches, greenhouses, hanging baskets and plants in containers. If you need advice on setting up your micro irrigation system, the friendly and experienced staff are on hand to help.

5 Don’t forget to protect against slug damage. Wards stock a wide range of environmentally friendly slug control/prevention products.

6 Sweet peas need training and tying in to their supports to encourage them to climb.

7 Feed tomatoes, peppers, melons and cucumbers as soon as flowers have turned into fruit. Wards stock Levington® Tomorite® liquid plant food for tomatoes - also ideal for all other fruiting vegetables. For pot plants, ask in store for advice on specific flowering food for flowering and growing seasons.

Wards stock all the equipment you need to get your garden looking fantastic year round, as well as a huge range of flowers, bedding plants and trees.

Wards Nurseries & Garden Centre

Eckington Road, Coal Aston, Dronfield, S18 3BA

PATIOS, HANGING BASKETS, CONTAINERS 1 Gerbera Garvinea produces an abundance of cheerful daisy-like flowers consisting of six vibrant flower colorations. These robust plants are well suited for container plantings, perennial borders, or for cut flowers.

2 Geraniums are popular bright and vibrant bedding plants and they’re also available in trailing varieties for hanging baskets. These plants are low maintenance, yielding long-lasting displays of colour from June to October.

3 Fuchsias are grown for their very attractive, usually pendant flowers that are borne more or less continuously from summer to autumn.

They are useful in summer-bedding schemes, containers or in the ground.

4 Bedding Dahlias are invaluable for the summer border, in patio containers or as cut flowers, often flowering until the first frosts. They offer a wide range of flower types, often with very showy, double forms in warm vibrant colours.

Wards stock a wide choice of ready-made hanging baskets and you can even take your old baskets and containers to be refilled. If you don’t have your own, you can choose a planter or a hanging basket from the garden centre and Ward’s will fill it with beautiful plants for you.

PUMP IT UP! HANNAH SANDERS SAMPLES THE LATEST ADDITION TO THE ATTRACTIONS AT ROTHER VALLEY COUNTRY PARK. paused at the top of the free fall supreme before taking a heartpounding, exhilarating free fall into the water, and then I was pulling myself out of the depths onto the towering Jungle Joe. If you’ve ever visited the water parks in Majorca, Portugal or Florida this scene may be familiar to you. However, now you don’t have to wait until your next foreign holiday to experience those thrills, as the largest aqua park in the UK is right on Sheffield’s doorstep.

The 750-acre Rother Valley Country Park has four artificial lakes, and as well as a full size cable ski and wake park they’ve brought more exciting ways for people to wipe out with the aqua park.

Complete with huge inflatable slides, a 27ft trampoline, climbing walls, runways and a blast bag; it’s the ultimate outdoor water experience.

I

Pulling into the car park on a sunny Saturday morning, my partner and I could just see the top of one of the inflatable slides and couldn’t wait to have a go.

It was a quick and easy process getting checked in. Once we read the safety card and received the wrist bands, we struggled into our wetsuits and were ready to pick up the life jackets and listen to a safety briefing.

This included inflatable safety, getting the lifeguard’s attention and even jokes about crocodiles eating all the sharks, causing a few chuckles from the adults and some panic stricken faces from the children.

Then, after a quick walk to the water’s edge we were let loose to try our hand at the adrenaline-fuelled aqua park.

After a few seconds deliberating how cold the water would be, I eventually bit the bullet and jumped in. I was thankful for the full

length wetsuit to give me that extra bit of heat as I made the short swim out to the inflatables.

Once we pulled ourselves up onto the course and got our balance - which took a few minutes - we started to tackle the giant inflatables.

As the course is a simple rectangular layout, it’s easy to navigate your way around. We started at one of the climbing frames, deciding to race against one other by one clambering over and the other under, needless to say going over was considerably quicker.

Then we were back onto the runways and heading towards the first of four slides. After a few attempts on the runways, I discovered that instead of delicately walking across, it was easier to run across and saved me a few falls back into the lake.

The slides were my favourite section of the

Leisure

www.rmcmedia.co.uk / @ImageRMC

course. After a trying incline on the aweinspiring ladder, you’re rewarded with a thrilling free fall straight into the lake.

After a quick swim, we pulled ourselves up onto the next section - which meant it was time to tackle the balancing beam and Jungle Joe. My partner made it look easy by getting across with ease, however, my balancing isn’t great so, needless to say, I didn’t even make it halfway across the beam without falling off.

The Jungle Joe is an incredible, towering inflatable which reminded me of the spider web structure you come across at parks. After a tiring but exciting climb up, it was time to plunge back into

the water off the slighter smaller – but still exhilarating slide.

And for those daring enough, you can finish the experience of the Jungle Joe on the blast bag which launches you skyward.

We then attempted the monkey bars under the summit express, which also has a three metre climbing wall attached to it along with yet another slide; the whole section is an adrenaline The Aqua Park overload. gets the It was time thumbs-up from to calm Hannah and her partner down after this, so we climbed across to

the 27ft trampoline. I’m a big fan of trampolines and the experience was only improved by it being over a body of water.

The activities aren’t just limited to the rectangle course, as just off to the side there are some more inflatables to try including the Rock It and the Rock and Slide.

Overall it was a fantastic 50 minutes and despite being exhausted by the end, it was worth feeling achy the next day.

If you’re looking for something exciting to do this summer, then I would recommend heading down to the Aqua Park for the ultimate inflatable experience.
