SEPTEMBER AUGUST 2015 2015 | | ISSUE ISSUE #34 #35 | | PROMOTION 

Local author talks about her series of childrens books 

Launched last October, ‘Silly Eric’ a brightly 

illustrated fun picture book, sends children 

laughing as they walk with the adorable Eric 

through his day and identify with the little things 

he gets muddled up with. 

He finds there is nothing wrong with being silly 

because, at the end of the day, his mother loves 

him, just the way he is. It’s the perfect gift for 

little ones aged 2-5. And, perhaps, for silly older 

people too! We caught up with Suffolk raised 

author Gracie Wright about her book series. 

Gracie, where did ‘Silly Eric’ come from? 

I happen to be one of 

those itchy feet creative 

people who need to 

create all of the time 

- always dreaming, 

always moving. Perhaps 

it’s writing a song, or 

a melody, perhaps it’s 

painting a picture or 

starting a new venture. 

In this case it is 

children’s stories. 

What inspired you? 

After 15 years of working with children, I have 

decided to use my wealth of experience to write 

a collection of children’s books inspired by the 

little characters I have looked after and met along 

the way. Their wonderful imaginations and way 

of doing things have always made me laugh and 

I wanted to capture this and share it with other 

children and families. Although I am still young 

myself, I believe that no one says it better than a 

child, honest and to the point! 

What makes ‘Silly Eric’ so special? 

5% of book sales will go towards U2U World 

children’s charity, building homes for children 

without families. 

You’ve recently launched a ‘Silly Eric’ day camp? 

Yes we’ve organised at Southwold Rugby Club a 

range of fun filled activities to encourage children 

to have fun, work together and be celebrated for 

who there are. Our slogan is “we love you just the 

way you are”. 

“Back to front and inside out, there’s just so much to learn about!” 

Gracie also holds writing workshops and motivational talks at school around the uk. Please get 

in touch if you are interested, You can buy your copy online from

Years of 

fashion 

IN 

35 years in business - not bad! I can 

honestly say that I have enjoyed every 

minute off it... 

Fashion never stands still and neither 

do I, so I’m very much suited to the ‘rag 

trade’ as it used to be called. 

My fashion store ‘Angela’s’ is situated in a 

magnificent old malting building in Long 

Melford, packed with glamorous chic clothes and 

accessories for all occasions, pockets and events. 

During the 80’s when we first opened our doors, 

German collections took off in England. At 

the height of fashion came co-ordinations and 

everything was big! 

Big shoulder pads and big buttons, big oversized 

jackets along with big hair together with turn-ups, 

culottes, pleated skirts and blouses, which had to 

have the collar turned up! 

STUNNING AUTUMN COLLECT 

This allows one of my lovely girlies to look after you 

for whatever occasion you may require an outfit for. 

We are like personnel shoppers each customer is an 

individual and our job is to select the perfect outfit 

for them, allowing the customer to enjoy the day 

and not worry about the clothes she is wearing. 

Having just competed Spring Summer 2016 

Collections, the trend this season appears to be 

getting smarter again, with wide trousers, culottes, 

fitted jackets and more bling! 

Fashion still reinvents itself for the times we now 

live in, and along my journey I have to thank 

everyone who has helped me on my 35 year fashion 

expedition, especially my Husband Paul, Donna my 

general manager and my wonderful team of fashion 

stylists. 

All very ‘Dallas’ style with masses of bling... it was 

such a fun time, customers just wanted to buy 

lots and lots of clothes and very much enjoyed 

the personnel service we offered… and still do of 

course! 

From the moment you walk into our wonderful 

historic building you will realise this no ordinary 

shop. Arranged over two floors our customers can 

view the amazing array of beautiful collections, 

whilst their partner may relax with a cup of coffee 

on our cozy sofa.

AUTUMN 

TRENDS 

2015 

By DANIEL FRANCIS 

It’s time to look forward to the 

AW season. Many strong trends 

appeared during the various 

fashion weeks and runway shows 

this year. 

Remember, trends are just that; trends. So don’t 

feel pressured to introduce every single one into 

your wardrobe. Select those that work for you 

and incorporate them into your personal style. 

Ladies 

HIGH NECKS 

Many of the top designers featured polo necks

FASHION 

in their shows. You won’t struggle to find 

something for every occasion as higher 

necklines are appearing on dresses 

and coats as well. When the weather 

gets colder try layering a polo under a 

knitwear piece. 

Eighties Revival 

We’ve already seen retro looks re-appear 

on the high-street but this season it’s 

time to embrace (or dig out) the polka 

dots, ruffles, statement belts and power 

shoulders. Velvet was huge on the runway 

as well which marries well with this look. 

Patchwork 

It’s all about bold, stand out patterns this 

time around, especially patch work and 

checks. These designs can be found on 

basically any item so even if you’re style is 

more conservative try braving it with some 

statement scarves and accessories. Those 

feeling braver might want to go full throttle 

and wear the “clash” look also seen on the 

runway. 

Gentlemen 

SHEARLING 

Traditionally seen on coats, this time 

designers were including shearling bags, 

jumpers 

and even trainers. Fear 

not those who are animal friendly, the high-street 

is sure to be full of synthetic-look shearling items. 

Just remember to weather protect any suede 

items. 

Wider Legs 

The skinny jean’s day is done. Once a full skinny 

convert I am relieved to already be wearing 

trousers that don’t take most of the day to get on 

and off. If you’re not ready for some of the flared 

look spotted, try and slim or straight leg. 

Shades of Grey 

While green and pink were also making their 

presence known throughout the shows, grey 

was in the spotlight across the board. Perfect for 

anyone who can’t quite pull of the starkness of 

black and ideal to make any outfit look just a little 

more sophisticated. Try layering different greys 

on top of each other.

JULY 2014 SEPTEMBER | ISSUE 2015 #21 | | ISSUE SUMMER #35 IN | BURY WEDDING 

Taking up Tradition 

In a lot of ways, British 

wedding celebrations haven’t 

changed all that much over the 

ages. 

The process from church to reception, 

wedding breakfast to celebration – it’s much 

been the same for centuries. 

However, it can sometimes feel that with so 

many ideas out there, the traditional British 

wedding could be overlooked. 

Here are just a couple of simple ideas that 

could lend themselves to a more typically 

traditional wedding: 

Receptions and Toasting: 

Local Fruits 

Custom tends to lean towards champagne 

or a similar alternative for receptions and 

toasting, to the bride and groom. 

Traditionally, it would not have been possible 

to make wine from grapes proficiently in the 

UK or source from abroad with ease. 

Instead, the celebratory drink of choice would 

have been mead or cider. 

With such a beautiful array of mead and cider 

available both locally and nationally, why not 

take tradition by the horn and opt for a fruity 

20

WEDDING 

SEPTEMBER 2015 2015 | ISSUE | ISSUE #35 #35| WEDDING 

cider reception and a toast with sweet honey 

mead. 

Dress to Impress? Or, ward 

off evil spirits? 

Way back in Roman times bridesmaids were 

instructed to wear similar attire to that of the 

bride, in order to ward of evils spirits when 

accompanying her on her wedding day. 

So while some may say not to wear white on 

a brides wedding day, as a sign of respect and 

tradition, it was actually regarded as common 

practice in the days of the Roman Empire. 

The Favours Five 

Traditionally guests would have received 

five almonds, each signifying a token of well 

wishing from the bride and groom: 

Health, Happiness, Prosperity, Fertility 

and Longevity. 

If you don’t want to give almonds as favours, 

why not a beautifully decorated crossword 

with the five words hidden with clues. 

Or perhaps a differing five items? 

Ultimately, it’s not always about the next best 

thing or what’s trending online. 

Planning a wedding should be focused on 

what you like as a couple. 

And if you get stuck for ideas – don’t be 

afraid to look back at tradition as well as the 

fashion for the season.

Flowers 


Creating simply exquisite wedding flowers is 

something which comes naturally to Claire 

Cowling, at Thrive floristry, whose meticulous eye 

for detail turns brides’ dreams into reality. With so 

many possibilities when choosing your wedding 

flowers, it’s difficult to know where to start; so 

here’s a few tips: 

Think seasonal: It’s so nice to work with 

fresh flowers during their natural seasons, and to 

incorporate natural treasures into your designs to 

suit the time of year: berries and seed heads in 

autumn, or perhaps mistletoe and pine cones in 

winter… 

Think colour: flowers are the perfect way 

to bring colour to your big day – whether it’s 

to match your bridesmaids dresses, or to add a 

splash of your favourite colour… there’s a wide and 

wonderful palette available. 

Think venue: try to choose designs that 

complement your wedding venue: rustic crates 

crammed with your favourite flowers look fabulous 

in a rural barn setting; gleaming vases brimming 

with blousy English blooms look stunning in Tudor 

mansions… 

Think budget: when choosing flowers, 

disclosing your budget will help a florist 

to determine your needs from the outset; 

a professional florist will use their skill and 

knowledge to suggest particular flowers and 

designs to optimise your flower budget, or offer 

alternative ideas and suggestions if designs aren’t 

possible within this.

SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 2015 2015 | ISSUE | ISSUE #35 | #35 WEDDING 

WeddingAngel 

When a wedding planner becomes 

a bride 

By Catherine Starling-GUNFIELD 

Having been in the 

industry for over 10 

years I have pretty 

much seen it all, 

colours and theme 

wise, so when it came to 

planning my wedding 

it was pretty difficult, 

you really can have too 

much choice. 

However once we had chosen 

our venue, Ravenwood Hall 

Hotel and decided on a 

colour scheme, the planning and design was easy. 

My husband and I love the 1920-1950’s so we had a 

silver screen theme, each table was named after an 

actor or actress from that era ie: Elizabeth Taylor. 

We had bird cages as a running theme with gold 

and ivory accents. 

Our flowers were peonies, roses, gypsophila and 

hydrangeas. 

I designed all the stationery including: 

• Invitations which were double fold ivory card, bird 

cage detailing, gold and ivory lace and dusky 

pink. 

• Order of ceremony 

• Menu cards 

• Table Plan 

• Place-settings, which were 

hooked over guests wine 

glasses using strings of pearls. 

26

WEDDING 

SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 2015 2015 | ISSUE | ISSUE #35 | #35 WEDDING 

We wanted a vintage feel 

so I used mini bronze keys, 

pearls and dusky pink 

accents and bird cage diecuts. 

We gave tears of joy hankies 

and dancing feet flip flops 

to the ladies, Trivial Pursuit 

cards on the tables, sugared 

almonds and chocolate 

hearts. 

For the evening there was 

a candy buffet, VW camper 

photo booth, disco, cheese 

board and sparklers, which 

finished off the celebrations. 

Keith chose a 3 piece navy 

suit with ivory tie, matching 

hankie and white shirt all 

from Six Whiting Street. 

I chose a Ella Rosa satin 

A Line gown with beaded 

waistband and cathedral 

length veil from Bury Bridal 

Rooms. 

Special thanks too: Our 

friend Hannah who sang 

during the signing of the 

register, our photographer 

Neal Laver, our florist Susan 

Jane May, Amazing Cakes 

by Jean and to all the staff 

at Ravenwood Hall Hotel. 

Happy planning ...

So when the opportunity arose to 

attend one of their legendry events I 

jumped at the chance. 

The excitement was heightened 

knowing the evening’s main event was 

the Kaiser Chiefs, my friend’s favourite 

band! 

We always love an excuse to get dressed 

up and what better occasion than the 

stylish Newmarket Nights. 

There was a definite buzz as we arrived 

at the race course, picnics and bubbly 

were in full swing, the sun was shining 

and it looked set to be a great evening. 

With Pimms in hand we ventured to 

the Premier Enclosure to soak up the 

atmosphere and admire the fine attire of 

beautiful summer dresses. 

We were pleasantly surprised at the 

variety of delicious food and snacks 

catering for even our fussy palettes. 

Wanting the best view possible, which 

can be tricky with a vertically challenged 

best friend, we headed to the stage 

early determined to get a great view of 

the amazing Kaiser Chiefs! 

We were certainly not disappointed! 

Ricky Wilson had great stage presence 

and was a fantastic front man involving 

the excitable crowd. 

Performing songs old and new, I was 

reminded of how many fantastic hits this 

awesome British band have produced.

SIR TOM 

Jones 

Bounce Magazine were delighted to 

attend Newmarket Nights. On the 

7th August the legendary Sir Tom 

Jones returned for a mind blowing 

performance. 

After his incredible show last year, he 

brought with him his huge repertoire of 

hits from across genres and generations 

including ‘Kiss’, ‘Delilah’, ‘She’s A Lady’ 

and ‘It’s Not Unusual’ for another not-tobe-missed 

night on the green. 

His career, spanning over half a century, 

has seen him win many accolades 

including a BRIT Award for Outstanding 

Contribution to Music and a Silver Clef 

Award for Lifetime Achievement. 

Sir Tom is a global star, who received 

his knighthood from Her Majesty the 

Queen in 2006, has amassed 36 top 40 

UK hits and has a continued worldwide 

reputation as one of the great vocalists, 

earning the nickname ‘The Voice’. 

Sir Tom Jones commented before his 

show “I’m really looking forward to 

appearing at ‘An Evening At The Races’ 

this summer. I always have a fantastic 

time performing to the audiences at the 

Racecourses so it’s my pleasure to be 

asked to return for another year.”

Questions 

for Dr Bella Smith 

Meningitis 

Meningitis is a very serious, life-threatening 

infection of the lining of the brain. 

It can cause sudden illness that needs 

prompt diagnosis and treatment and if left 

untreated can cause severe brain damage, 

blood poisoning and in some cases can be 

fatal. It is something that I dread both as a 

parent and as a doctor. 

Recently there has been a rise 

in meningitis from two strains 

Meningitis B that mainly affects 

babies and Meningitis W that 

mainly affects teenagers. 

Meningitis can strike rapidly and 

it is important to be vigilant and 

trust your instincts. Your child 

may have a fever, or be vomiting; 

they may be drowsy, confused or 

irritable. 

They may complain of a severe headache, 

pain when looking at light, a stiff neck or 

may have a seizure. Look at their skin for 

signs of blotchiness or a rash, feels their 

hands and feet, as these are often very 

cold despite their fever. 

Babies may be ‘out if sorts’, not settling, 

crying more than normal and their cry can 

sound ‘different from normal’. They may be 

grunting or breathing rapidly. In all cases 

the patient will continue to get worse and 

urgent medical attention is needed. 

A really good website for a summary of 

possible signs and symptoms is 

www.meningitisnow.org. 

The good news is that this summer 

there are now 2 new life saving vaccines 

available to prevent these nasty strains of 

meningitis (W and B). 

From August 2015 all 17-18 year olds 

and university entrants will receive the 

Combined Meningitis ACWY to combat the 

rise in Meningitis W cases. 

From 1st sept 2015 all our 

newborn babies will be 

immunised for Meningitis 

B along with all the current 

vaccines from 2 months 

old, with a second Men 

B injection at 4 months, 

then a booster at 12 

months as part of the NHS 

vaccination programme 

available at your GP surgery. 

The UK is the first country in the world to 

vaccinate against this strain of meningitis 

in a national publicly funded campaign. 

There will also be a limited catch up 

programme for infants who are due their 

3-4month immunisations in September. 

Ask at your GP surgery for more 

information.

Cranio-sacral therapy, how does 

it work?... 

I distantly remember the first time I was 

introduced to cranial. I nearly burst out laughing 

holding my fellow practitioner’s head trying to feel 

the supposed rhythmic pull of the tissues. 

The theory was that the bones, the dura and the 

cerebro-spinal fluid have a distinct movement in 

a specific direction and any deviation from that 

specific movement may cause dysfunction. 

My lack of faith was mainly due to the lack of 

scientific evidence; particularly the fact that the 

cranial bones firmly sutured together should be 

able to move at all. Nevertheless few lessons later 

I began to feel that rhythm myself exactly as 

described by my tutor. With practice I was able 

to feel different levels in that rhythm, which were 

supposedly coming from the deeper structures. 

Also I found out that there is definitely the right 

and wrong way of doing it after I had a severe 

headache brought on by my fellow student 

practitioner that was subsequently fixed by my 

tutor. 

So although it may not be clear how it works some 

people get up and feel better immediately after 

having just one session. 

We normally recommend cranial osteopathy 

for adults in conjunction with either structural 

osteopathy or acupuncture. However we can do a 

whole session of cranial on request. 

If you are not sure we can give you a short session 

to try it out.

Are you sitting too comfortably? 

Sitting is the latest health hazard, according 

to a recently published study, which 

shows that being sedentary for hours at a 

time increases your risk of diabetes, heart 

disease and premature death. 

But you don’t have to take this risk lying 

down! There is an easy way to find out how 

fit you are and what exercise would benefit 

you. Bury Physio offers a Fitness For Life 

Test which will assess your ability and 

signpost the kind of exercise you need. 

Statistically, people aged 45 or over who sit 

down for 11 or more hours a day have an 

increased risk of dying over the next three 

years, compared with those who sit for no 

more than four hours a day. It has been 

known for decades that prolonged inactivity 

contributes to back pain and obesity; 

now it seems we can blame it for killing 

people prematurely. 

Building physical activity into your life can 

reduce the risk, and even aid recovery if 

you are already ill. For example, complete 

rest used to be recommended for patients 

with heart disease but it is now accepted 

that physical activity and fitness benefit 

patients with established cardiovascular 

disease as well as people living with cancer 

and other conditions such as diabetes or 

osteoporosis. 

The Fitness for Life Test comprises a detailed 

health questionnaire and interview 

to understand any health issues and any 

worrying symptoms you may have. The 

physiotherapist will discuss your lifestyle, 

activity, rest, eating and exercise patterns. 

A physical assessment, which includes 

measuring your height, blood pressure, 

weight and aerobic fitness will be used as 

the basis for a full report. You will also be 

given advice on any health issues you wish 

to address. 

Nicola Hunter at Bury Physio said: “When 

people come to us with an injury or problem, 

that is often a window of opportunity 

to talk about changing health behaviour. 

“We try to make every consultation count. 

There are many simple and free ways to 

build a bit of extra activity into your day. 

For people aged 20 – 44 we recommend a 2 

yearly Fitness for Life check-up, and for 

over 45’s, an annual check.”

THE SELF CENTRE 

Happy 10th Birthday 

(to us)! 

We don’t usually like to blow our own 

trumpet here at the Self Centre, but 

this month we need to make a bit of 

noise. Please join us in celebrating our 

10th Birthday! 

We would like to say a massive thank you to 

everyone who has supported us during our first 

decade - students, therapists, café customers and 

staff alike. It has been an amazing time for us and 

you are the people that make it worthwhile. 

For the next 10 weeks we will be celebrating with 

weekly competitions and showcasing some of 

the excellent work that goes on here through the 

dedicated efforts of our teachers and therapists. 

There should be something for everyone; so 

please keep an eye out on the website or our 

Facebook page for more details. (There will be 

cake!) 

Looking forwards, we have a brand new timetable 

out for the autumn, including some great new 

classes. We are particularly excited to welcome 

Starchild Yoga to the Centre on Saturday 

mornings. 

We know that yoga has proven benefits for 

adults, both physically and mentally, but when 

it comes to children we often focus on outdoor 

team sports as a way of getting regular exercise 

and perhaps overlook the benefits that yoga can 

have for young people. These benefits include: 

reducing stress levels and anxiety, improving 

sleep, enhancing concentration, increasing 

flexibility and balance, improving wellbeing and 

posture; as well as boosting confidence and 

helping young people to relax and remain calm.

For new students. Pay only £35 and get unlimited classes for one

The earlier they start, the more they will benefit! 

Sarah our Starchild Yoga teacher is starting yoga 

classes for young people aged between 6 and 

16 years old on Saturday mornings from 26th 

September. Taster sessions are available, so why 

not give it a go. 

New classes for Autumn: 

Over the summer we have been working on a new 

timetable which is now up and running and there 

are plenty of new classes to try, including: 

Pilates - Beginners 8 week course – Monday 

9.15-10.15am

Domestic 

violence 

It’s no longer just Sticks and Stones... 

‘He glared at me, shouting ‘You’re a leper, you 

suck people dry. Everyone hates you, your 

children hate you. You have no friends and you 

will die alone.’ I pleaded with him to stop. I was 

sobbing, but he just carried on screaming at me, 

louder and louder,’ 

The old nursery rhyme of ‘sticks and stones may 

break my bones but words will never hurt me.’ 

may have been good advice in the playground 

but is certainly not true of domestic violence 

where emotional and psychological abuse can be 

more scarring and harder to recover from than 

physical abuse. One of the reasons is that the 

damage is not immediately apparent. Get a black 

eye and the hurt is there for all to see, but mental 

scarring has always been much more difficult to 

define. 

Under the Serious Crimes Act 2015, the definition 

of domestic abuse has been widened to include 

the offence of ‘controlling or coercive behaviour 

in an intimate or family relationship. When this 

law comes into force, the offence will carry a 

maximum sentence of 5 years. 

What is controlling and coercive behaviour? 

The law says that it will be illegal for an intimate 

partner or family member to repeatedly or 

continuously engage in behaviour towards 

another person that has a serious effect. Crucially, 

it is behaviour the offender knows or ought to 

have known would have a serious effect. The new 

offence will have links to harassment, stalking and 

revenge porn all of them already illegal, as well as 

to sexual coercion. 

Not One Single Act 

Coercive Control is a ‘course of conduct’ offence 

whereby it is not defined by one single criminal 

48

wELLBEING 


act but rather a number of acts occurring 

together, forming a pattern. Not all the acts 

are, of their own, coercive in nature, the act of 

coercive control is specific to the relationship but 

identifying it is not as difficult as it sounds, if you 

know where to look. 

It’s Not About Anger 

The important thing to understand with coercive 

control is that it is largely invisible and has 

very little to do with anger therefore anger 

management will have no effect on an abuser 

who uses controlling tactics in a relationship. 

Anger, quite often, is used as a tactic to 

subjugate, meaning that an abuser will ‘rev 

himself up’ to project anger in order to intimidate. 

The abuse happens so gradually that victims of 

coercive control may not even realise they are 

being abused. 

Low level violence 

It is not necessary for abusers to use violence 

although some do, the threat of it can be enough 

to frighten someone into submission. Low level 

violence that doesn’t mark and therefore leaves 

no evidence is another tactic. Being pushed into 

a wall, grabbed by the hair or wrist, maybe even 

by clothing, doors being slammed in the face, 

being elbowed, rough sex when angry all feel 

threatening and act to undermine and dominate. 

I Want You All To Myself 

The early signs of coercive control can even look 

like devotion. ‘I just want to be with you’, ‘I really 

miss you when you see your friends.’ The coercive 

controller targets single mothers, the newly 

divorced, widows or those undergoing medical 

treatment as they are already vulnerable. After, 

for example, a divorce, it can be flattering to be 

loved so intensely but it is just one of the ways 

of isolating the victim from family and friends. 

When the controller becomes more established, 

he may even forbid his partner’s close friends and 

family from coming to the house or he may be 

deliberately rude or flirt inappropriately so that 

they become uncomfortable and withdraw. 

The abuser may not like his partner working or 

having interests outside of the relationship. He 

may sabotage any attempts at self-improvement 

saying ‘Why are you doing this course? You won’t 

get any clients. You should be concentrating on 

our relationship.’ 

He may refuse to have any bills in his name 

saying ‘ In case something happens to me it’s 

better if the bills are in your name.’ and he may 

put the heating on full blast or leave all the 

lights on knowing you will stress over the bills. 

When he does offer to put the bills in his name, 

he will avoid paying them, arranging to have 

them deferred so the debt piles up without you 

knowing.

SEPTEMBER 2015 SEPTEMBER | ISSUE 2015 #35 | | ISSUE HEALTH #35 & WELLBEING 

Quite often, a controller will borrow money then 

refuse to pay it back or buy something (maybe a 

car) that is meant for the family but then register 

it as his so, when the relationship breaks down, 

you are still left with the bills. The added stress 

only serves further to undermine and subjugate. 

Monitoring and Blackmail 

The abuser will monitor your texts and emails. 

It may not even look like monitoring. ‘Here’s my 

phone, I have nothing to hide, why can’t I look at 

your phone what are you keeping secret?’ 

‘He changed my password to ‘I love (his name)’ 

saying that each time I logged on, I would be 

reminded of how much I love him.’ 

He may blackmail his partner with information she 

doesn’t want in the public domain, for example 

intimate photos. 

‘Revenge porn’ is now illegal but he may threaten 

to post the images or show his friends in order to 

degrade her and further subjugate. 

He may threaten to tell everyone she has a mental 

illness when she tries to go to the Doctor for 

antidepressants so she doesn’t go and becomes 

more vulnerable without support. 

Disorientation and Gaslighting 

Some abusers deliberately wake up their partners 

several times during the night so that they 

become so exhausted they find it difficult to cope. 

They are then easier to manipulate. He may 

try and make his partner doubt her own sanity 

as in the film ‘Gaslighting’ where a husband 

deliberately tried to make his wife think she was 

going crazy by turning the light on and off and 

then denying it. 

Undermining Parenting 

Another tactic used by controllers is in reducing 

the amount of time a mother spends with her 

children. 

This can be done by scheduling ‘couple time’ 

when the children need their mother. 

‘He would deliberately keep me in bed when 

the alarm went off to stop me from getting the 

children their breakfast. If they tried to come into 

the bedroom he would scream at them to wait 

downstairs.’ 

Many will threaten the mother with social services 

or the police so she ends up fearing the agencies 

that are there to protect her. 

Health 

Living in constant fear and always on eggshells 

can cause IBS, palpitations, headaches, difficulties 

in eating and sleeping, anxiety, depression and a 

complete loss of self-esteem. The abuser knows 

this and knows that his partner will find it difficult 

to cope so she will end up reliant on him which is 

exactly how he wants it. A coercively controlling 

relationship has been described as less about 

domestic abuse than being in a hostage situation. 

Criminalising this could not come sooner. 

More in next months issue.

WOOLPIT Complementary 

The Benefits of 

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) 

A skillfully applied MLD treatment results in greater performance of the 

lymphatic system, which can improve your immune system and overall wellbeing. 

Many of the lymph vessels lie superficially, close 

to the skin. These are stimulated by MLD; a light, 

rhythmic massage, assisting the lymph through 

the lymphatic system, helping it to work at its best 

ability. 

It can help alleviate the symptoms of lymphedema, 

relieving the retention of fluids, for example during 

pregnancy and the menstrual cycle. 

This highly relaxing treatment can be of great 

health benefit, decreasing stress levels and 

increasing the functioning of the immune system. 

A brief insight into the lymphatic 

system: 

The lymphatic system drains the body tissues of 

excess fluid and returns this fluid via the lymph 

nodes to the cardiovascular system. 

This helps to maintain blood volume, blood 

pressure and prevents oedema. 

A healthy lymphatic system also plays an important 

part in the body’s immune system. 

The lymphatic nodes help to fight infection 

by filtering lymph and destroying invading 

microorganisms. 

Lymphocytes are reproduced in the lymph nodes 

and following infection they generate antibodies to 

prevent the body from subsequent infection. 

The lymphatic system does not have a pump like 

the cardiovascular system. It depends on muscle 

movement, internal pressure changes during 

respiration and on the pull of the skin and fascia 

during movement. 

There are many aspects that can compromise the 

activity of the lymph system. Examples can be lack 

of movement and injury and even muscle tension 

can prevent lymph flow. 

If you would like to find out more, contact Woolpit Complementary’s MLD practitioner 

Svenja O’Connor on 07725 325 175 or the centre on 01359 408 011.

FOOD & DRINK 

This month Bounce Magazine 

were delighted to stay at the 

award-winning Strattons Hotel in 

Swaffham, Norfolk, here’s what we 

thought… 

‘Nestled away, just off Swaffham’s high street you 

will find the beautiful surroundings of Strattons 

Hotel in Norfolk. 

With 14 individually themed rooms, local food and 

eclectic interiors, the family-run, award-winning 

boutique hotel is a place you may never want to 

leave. 

Owners Les and Vanessa Scott have done a 

fantastic job on giving the establishment an 

imaginative, arty feel, complete with hotel or selfcatering 

options. Every room holds a different 

story. 

As we arrived in the mid-afternoon sun, turning 

up the lane leading to the grand exterior, we also 

noticed neatly tucked away, a rather scrumptious 

delicatessen. 

You can pop in for great coffee, triple alliance 

teas, homemade cakes and cookies, light bites, all 

day breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, early 

suppers and tasty takeout meals, you name it 

they do it. This is definitely worth a visit on or off 

route from Strattons. 

This is also a great time for Afternoon Tea within 

the hotel, either alfresco in summer or by the fire 

in winter with prices from £15.50pp. 

After checking in we were shown to our room. 

We were in the popular ‘Boudoir’ room, which 

had a luxurious yet quirky feel to it with the most 

amazing renaissance styled wallpaper giving the 

room a grand feel and a huge Clawfoot bathtub 

to soak in. 

The little touches such as personalised Strattons 

biscuits which were left on the pillow, and mini 

bar options, all made the stay feel very special. 

Another popular room is named the “Red Room”. 

Warmed by an open log fire, there’s a carved 

four-poster bed, heavy swag curtains, cosy sofas 

and tented bathroom. 

As we relaxed in the lounge, (meeting Bert the 

famous Strattons cat mascot), we sipped our way 

through a mixture of Strattons original cocktails.

Moments seemed to drift away and it was soon 

time for dinner at ‘The Rustic’, celebrated for 

its organic and local ingredients such as tasty 

cheeses and free-range meats. 

After dressing to impress, a fabulous meal 

followed; starting with the homemade bread slate 

to wet our appetite. 

Sam opted to start with the twice baked Binham 

Blue soufflé with mixed salad herbs and mustard 

dressing, whilst my taste buds were yearning 

for something a little lighter, so I went for the 

chickpea and courgette hummus with chilli 

roasted walnuts, cocoa nib crispbreads and 

heritage tomatoes. 

For mains we both tucked into the slow cooked 

brisket of beef, bay roasted hasselback potatoes, 

sautéed courgettes, bacon, thyme & tomatoes, 

tarragon mayonnaise, delicious! 

To finish, we are so full we had to pass on dessert 

but instead choose to finish the bottle of the

to end what was a perfect evening.

Coffee 

Blends... 

BY PADDY BISHOPP 

To continue from a previous theme where we looked at the 

knowledge of coffee and how much we actually know about 

where and how it is grown I wanted to introduce our clever 

dripper coffees. 

These are all purchased from smaller, artisan 

growers in smaller batches with limited 

availability, which makes these coffees highly 

sought after. All are single estate and have been 

chosen due to the quality and complexity of 

flavour. 

Why do we use single origin coffees for 

our Clever Dripper? 

Our Clever Dripper Coffees have complex, flavours 

produced by precise brewing techniques (fine 

filter), which extracts the real flavours from the 

coffee. These delicate flavours are sometimes 

lost in the high-pressure extraction process of an 

espresso coffee. 

Our fine filter coffees Are strictly single origin 

coffees grown in microclimates, within rich soils 

and the ideal rainfall patterns, to produce a 

genuine quality coffee. 

What do they taste profile? Delightful aroma, 

pleasant acidity, full body, and delicate sweetness; 

a combination that results in a balanced and 

flavourful coffee. These coffees are akin to fine 

single malt.

Wines of 

England & 

Wales 

English wines have been produced for a 

surprisingly long time, despite the fact that it is 

thought to be a fairly recent phenomena. 

BY ‘WINE BUFF’ FRED FISHER 

The Romans are normally credited 

with introducing the vine to 

England but it may well have been 

growing here before they came. 

Under Roman rule wine production 

flourished and the spread of 

Christianity and the building of 

monasteries enhanced that. 

Winemaking continued in Saxon times and by 

the early Middle Ages many nobles and religious 

groups had vineyards. English monks particularly 

developed expertise and experimented with 

grafting to improve the crops. 

By 1080 there were 45 recorded vineyards which 

increased to 139 by Tudor times. Manuscript 

evidence proves the level of use at that time. 

By the 14th Century there was a gradual decline 

which may have been caused by the Black Death, 

climate change and cheap imports. 

Over the next 200 years the trade just survived 

until Henry 8th closed the monasteries in the 

1540’s leading to a prolonged period of decline. 

It was only after the Second World War that the 

revival of English Viticulture took place and by 

1994 there were 436 vineyards in the UK. By 2014 

this had become 470. 135 wineries take care of 

62

FOOD & DRINK 


these vineyards and now produce in the region of 

6.7 Million bottles of wine. 

Since the 2010 harvest, sparkling wine now 

exceeds still wine in quantity. Sparkling accounts 

for 66%, white still wine 24% and red 10%. The 

sparkling success is mainly due to the use of 

the 3 main Champagne grapes, Chardonnay, 

Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. These account for 

about 50% of the production. These wines have 

won 8 trophies for Best International Sparkling 

Wine and reaches about 1/8th the volume of 

Champagne imports. 

Vine Growing in England 

With our marginal climate for the satisfactory 

growing of vines, it has always been a difficult 

task for anywhere in the northern part of the 

country. For this reason most 

vineyards are situated in the 

south. The soils that give the 

best results are also critical and 

the best are also found in the 

south. In particular Kent and 

Sussex have an abundance of 

chalky soils and this gives rise 

to the success of Sparkling wines 

coming from these counties. 

The Grapes 

Many of the successful grapes grown in the UK 

are of German origin, due to the similarities in 

climates. Most European vines have to be grafted 

onto American rootstocks because of resistance 

to the Phylloxera pest. Hybrid vines are crosses 

between American and European vines to achieve 

a Phylloxera resistant vine without grafting. These 

however are not recognised under European law, 

as being able to produce a Quality Wine. 

Seyval Blanc is such a vine which is successful in 

producing a good wine for general drinking 

Other common varieties found in England and 

Wales include:- Reichensteiner, Muller-Thurgau, 

Riesling (The top German Grape), Sylvaner, 

Bacchus, Huxelrebe, Ortega, Madeline Angevine 

and Kerner. The main success story is Pinot Noir, 

Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier, which as stated 

produces some of the best English Sparkling 

Wine and accounts for over 50% of all plantings. 

Vineyards 

These are found over most of the south of 

England and a small amount in Wales. In all there 

are about 169 of which about 100 are open to the 

public. 

The largest numbers come from Kent 

14, Surrey 6, Sussex 25, Hampshire 16, 

Essex 7, Suffolk 6 and Norfolk 5. 

The future 

Cabernet Sauvignon has 

remarkably intense blackcurrant 

flavours. The deep plummy Merlot 

with some ageing is alongside the 

Carmenere which has some spicy and 

blackberry flavours. The Pinot Noir performs 

well in the coastal and high altitude areas with 

flavours of red fruits and chocolate. 

Try a bottle of each...

• Peel and chop the onion and add to the garlic add 

some salt and cook in low temperature. 

• Dice the peppers and add them to the pan. Stir all

Mauro Rodriguez is the head chef and 

enormous talent behind Upstairs at 

Bailey’s in Beccles. 

And, lucky for Bounce readers, over the next few 

issues, Mauro has agreed to share some of his 

delicious recipes with us. 

A graduate of the world-famous Escola Joviat 

catering college in the heart of Catalonia, 

30-year-old Mauro comes from a long line of 

family butchers. 

“I started cooking when I was 14 on my school 

holidays,” he says in heavily-accented English, 

which is improving all the time since his arrival in 

the Waveney Valley 18 months ago. 

“Food is my life and I hope to be able to share a 

little bit of that passion with Bounce readers. 

I have chosen dishes which are packed with 

flavour but I hope they will be simple enough for 

people to follow”.

The 

September 

Morning 

The September Morning cocktail 

is one of those easy-going, highly 

drinkable cocktails that are 

just fun and tasty. 

The traditional recipe calls for a raw 

egg white; if that worries you, you can 

use an egg substitute product. Rum, 

brandy and grenadine form the basis 

of this flavor, with the egg white marrying 

the ingredients and giving the 

whole drink a lift, and the little bit of 

lime juice adding a note of deep citrus. 

Ingredients 

• 1 1/2 ounce light rum 

• 1 teaspoon cherry brandy 

• 1/2 ounce lime juice 

• 1/2 teaspoon grenadine 

• 1 egg white 

Method 

1. Fill a shaker halfway with 

ice cubes. 

2. Pour all ingredients into 

the shaker and shake well. 

3. Strain the mixture into a 

chilled cocktail glass. 

4. Garnish with lime wheel.

MIA’s STRAWBERRY JAM 

My big sister's fabulous strawberry jam can be enjoyed all year round! 

This month we are making Mia’s favourite Strawberry 

Jam. A really fun activity that can be made by anyone. 

This is another recipe from our second book ‘Oliver’s 

Kitchen - Seconds’ where you can find the recipe in 

more detail. 

Well first of all you are going to need a 

lot of strawberries and the best way to 

get these is to go pick them yourself! 

That way you know they are lovely and 

fresh and it’s a whole lot of fun picking them! 

There are always pick-your-own places 

scattered around our great British 

countryside this way you know exactly 

where they have come from and you are 

supporting local farmers which is always a 

good thing to do! 

This is easy, you just need to plop a small 

teaspoon full onto the cold plate and after 

a minute or so, push the jam with your finger 

to see if it is setting. If it wrinkles on top then 

it is ready. If it is not ready then return to the 

boil for another 2 minutes then repeat the 

test. 

Once done, you need to get clever with 

your butter, this helps remove the scum. 

Add a knob of butter to the mixture. If it 

doesn’t work then spoon some of the scum 

off the surface. 

Now add the strawberries to a 

preserving pan with the sugar and 

lemon juice. You can slice a few bits of lemon 

up and add them too. Ask your big person to 

heat it gently to dissolve the sugar. 

Whilst they are doing this, you can pop 

a plate carefully in the freezer. We will 

need this later. Whilst you are there, why 

not try your luck and ask for an ice pop, you 

never know, it is summer! 

Ask your big helper to turn up the heat 

so that the mixture boils for 4 minutes. 

Once it has bubbled away for 4 minutes you 

need to test it. 

71 

Let the jam cool for 15 minutes when it 

is ready. Give it a gentle stir. Ask your 

big helper to heat the oven to 140°c and 

sterilise the jam jars in it by heating them for 

30 minutes. Once the jars are ready the jam 

can be poured into them. Leave this to the 

big people and tell them to be careful! 

Immediately cover the jam with a 

waxed disc and seal the jars. 

The jam can be stored for like 6 months in a 

cool, dry place. 

We used smaller jam jars as we found 

that homemade jams and preserves are 

fantastic gifts for special occasions.

Local degree study creates opportunities... 

The ongoing development 

of University Campus 

Suffolk (UCS) at its site in 

Bury St Edmunds, creates 

more opportunities for 

mature students to follow 

dreams of degree study, or 

to pursue a career change 

easily. 

Local access to degree 

courses makes a lot of 

sense, particularly to 

working mature students 

who wish to study parttime. 

You don’t have to 

pay for long distance 

travel or accommodation, 

and it can fit in with the 

rest of your life. 

More than 600 students 

currently study in Bury 

St Edmunds, on nearly 

60 degree programmes 

from applied computing 

to sports coaching. The 

experience of learning 

here makes it easy too. 

Small classes and a higher 

than average tutor to 

student ratio makes for an 

intimate and supported 

learning environment. 

With much recent 

investment in facilities 

and close connections 

with industry, students 

are better prepared for 

employment beyond their 

study.

Apparition Marketing & Design create new institute 

branding for University College London... 

This concept is an abstract 

interpretation of a wireless 

Internet signal. It also 

references lines on a computer 

chip board as well as multiple 

fiber optics, cables and wires. 

The main element of the logo is 

made up of pixels. The three plus 

symbols relate to the polarity 

symbols in electronics. The 

colours overlap to show joining 

and connecting. 

The letters are broken up 

which helps to create a 

feeling of a pulse or a signal. 

It give the impression of 

computer like text. 

The chosen concept combines 

two signals overlapping. This 

connotes communication and 

interaction. It also combines 

the two ‘C’s’ taken from the 

title of the institute. 

Another version of the chosen 

design (before final colour 

change and additional text) to 

fit different types of marketing 

platforms.

BUSINESS 


Founded in 1826 as London 

University, UCL was the first 

university institution established 

in London and the first in England 

to be entirely secular, to admit 

students regardless of their 

religion, and to admit women on 

equal terms with men. 

The university is one of the most selective British 

universities and ranks highly in national and 

international league tables. 

The aim 

UCL recently engaged local based website and 

design agency, Apparition Marketing & Design, 

to participate in a branding exercise to create an 

original logo for a new institute being launched 

this year. 

The aim was to create a brand that related to 

communication, signals and networks. 

The creation 

Opting for a simplistic style Apparition 

created an icon, which combines two signals 

overlapping. This connotes communication 

and interaction. It also combines the two ‘C’s’ 

taken from the title of the institute. 

Two styles 

So that the brand can be used on various 

marketing platforms, Apparition created two 

versions of the logo which can be used with 

the full title or the acronym. 

What’s next ? 

Now that the branding has been completed, 

Apparition will be undertaking the website 

design and development for the new UCLICCS 

website. This will involve the use of the circular 

shapes within the brand to keep the look 

consistent. 

To learn more about how Apparition can help 

your business, please don’t hesitate to get in 

touch. You’ll find us friendly, approachable 

and eager to exceed expectations. 

WHAT UCL THINKS OF 

Apparition 

“I engaged Apparition to undertake 

design work for our new institute and 

they delivered a quality document 

exactly to requirement within a short 

timescale. 

During the initial design process, they 

asked sensible and informed questions 

so they could have an idea of what I was 

looking for. They listened to the feedback 

and designed the initial concept within a 

few days.” Dr Karen Smith

One of the hardest things to do when your 

travelling is knowing who to trust... 

The internet is full of stories about 

rip-offs and scams but you never 

hear about the helpful people. 

When I was at the bus stop in Dar Es Salaam, 

Tanzania, my head was full distrust. This month 

I share an excerpt from my book, How to Clean 

your Underwear in Africa... 

After another awful breakfast I left my hotel 

and grabbed a tuk tuk to the bus station. 

Outside the main entrance are lots of 

touts desperately trying to sell you tickets. 

Generally they can’t be trusted, they’l 

often be selling false tickets, which is why I 

always like to buy my ticket before I get to 

the bus station. Having navigated a sea of 

touts before and knowing how frustrating 

it can be I asked my driver to take me 

all the way into the bus station, ideally, exactly 

where my bus would depart from. I had read 

stories online about the bus station in Dar and it 

didn’t disappoint. The place was enormous with 

people rushing around all over the place making 

it a very confusing place to be. 

When inside, we walked around for a while but 

could not find my bus - my tuk tuk driver spoke 

to a couple of people and told me they were 

still waiting for it to arrive but wait here and 

it will come. I wasn’t convinced he knew 

what he was talking about but with no 

other option I just sat and waited. 

While I sat, various people approached 

me trying to sell me stuff but they were 

friendly enough. One guy came up to ask 

me which bus I was waiting for so I told 

him, he then informed me that it had been 

82

SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 2015 2015 | ISSUE | ISSUE #35 | #35 TRAVEL 

cancelled but he could get me a ticket for another 

one! Hmmm, sounded like a scam to me ... good 

try mister. So I sat and I waited ... waited … and I 

waited. 

I was starting to get a bit worried so I tried to 

find someone to help, the problem was who to 

trust. I managed about three laps of the bus 

station before I considered going to the ticket 

office, however, that meant wandering through 

100s of touts so I just kept walking. I thought it 

would be a good idea to find someone who was 

working but it was difficult as no body wears a 

uniform. By now it was 9:30am and my bus was 

due to leave at 9, so I was understandably a little 

anxious. I finally found a man who was organising 

the boarding of another bus and asked him - he 

pointed me in the right direction. 

As it turns out, my original bus had been 

cancelled with a replacement service being 

offered and my ticket was valid. Relieved, I 

boarded the bus, found my seat and waited to 

leave. As I patiently sat there waiting, I couldn’t 

help but wonder ... was the first man who told 

me about the bus telling the truth and genuinely 

wanted to help? Had I have listened to him, could 

all my panicked wanderings avoided? Maybe he 

just wanted my money? I guess I’ll never know 

but this moment was quite a turning point for my 

travels, maybe trusting people a bit more isn’t 

such a bad thing. 

Next month … on with the journey!

BY ANNALISE ROPER 

The Ultimate Massage - 4-Hands at SK 

When it comes to massage, are 4-hands 

better than 2? 

The new Synchronised Massage available at 

SK Clinic + Spa, is the most indulgent and 

luxurious treatment on the spa menu. 

Known throughout the world as Four Hands, SK’s 

Synchronised Massage was derived from one of the 

most prestigious royal treatments in Asia and the 

Middle East. 

The massage allows you to have two SK therapists 

performing the massage, rather like experiencing two 

full-body massages at the same time. 

The two therapists will work in unison on one client, 

using synchronised moves, which creates a more 

concentrated massage involving varying paces and 

pressures. 

At the beginning of the Synchronised Massage 

treatment, it is quite normal for the client to try and 

keep track of the therapists. 

Where and when each movement will be and what each 

one is doing, but very quickly the client cannot preempt 

the movements and the brain will realise it’s not 

quite sure who is doing what, and relinquishes control. 

This is what makes this massage an extremely powerful 

treatment, especially for those who have difficulty in 

letting themselves go, drifting off and relaxing during 

treatments. 

The Synchronised Massage treatment is available in 30, 

60 or 90 minutes, depending on how much pampering 

you would like. 

Having the two therapists working on you at the same 

time allows you to achieve more in your massage 

requirements. 

Having two therapists and four hands work on your 

body is an experience like no other. The client’s mind 

and body reacts quite differently compared to other 

massage treatments. 

It’s the ideal massage for those who want the intensity 

of a deep and lengthy massage, but in half the time. 

Feel like you need to drift away? Contact the SK Clinic + Spa reception team to book 

and find out more: 01284 748470, www.skclinic.co.uk

BEAUTY & BEAUTY 

In love with 

Lancome... 

BY Carla Mirelle Jones 

We all have our favourite brand of 

makeup, so I have decided to do a 

few articles on brands around here 

and their best products. 

I got to sit down and talk with Lancomes elite 

Makeup Artist Fortunato Benavoli to get some 

tips and his must have products from Lancome. 

When he works at the Baftas (and any other 

makeup he does) he always uses Advance 

Genifique Serum for thee face, it suits every skin 

type and ethnicity, smoothing the completion 

giving you perfectly clear and luminous skin. 

Absolue Moisteriser comes with a premium price 

tag, but for a good reason, it does exactly what 

it says it does, giving radiance regeneration, 

smoothing wrinkles, firms the skin and ultra 

hydrating. 

This is a product that even if he left Lancome he 

would still come back to buy as he cannot use 

anything else now. 

As for primers he uses two at once to give that 

ultimate perfect makeup. 

The Pore eraser he uses around the nose and 

chin, which helps hide pores and is a matter 

finish, then for that glowing skin he uses the 

Hydra Glow Primer on the cheeks. 

In doing this it gives the perfect balance of matt 

and a glow where it is needed. 

His favourite Mascara is their new Hypnose 

Volume-a-porter, this its plastic brush narrowing 

at the end it makes it great to coat every single 

lash including those small ones at the corners of 

the eye. 

It is buildable without clumping, I have to admit, 

having tried it I now own it. 

Nirvana, the account manager of Lacmome, 

Boots, Bury St Edmunds, also a professionally

SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 2015 | ISSUE 2015 #35 | ISSUE | HAIR #35& BEAUTY 

trained Makeup Artist, says that her favourite skin 

care piece is also the Advance Genifique Serum. 

Her favourite Makeup piece is Lancomes Teint 

idole Ultra Foundation. 

She say’s ‘It lasts through an entire Shift without 

having to tough it up. It is a Matte Finish giving 

a completely flawless coverage and comes in a 

wide range of colours from fair to dark skin tones. 

As for my Favourite pieces I love the Advance 

Genifique Eye serum Pearl, it reduces the 

appearance of dark circles under the eye, a 

problem I suffer with, helps with those dreaded 

crows feet, the eyes appears brighter and 

smoother. 

The new Ombre Hypnose Stylo eyeshadow sticks 

are beautiful, easy to apply and do not crease 

once they are on. They have some great colours 

from natural nudes to greens and greys.

The up-do 

IS BACK 

OUR TOP TIPS FOR AUTUMN 

92

HAIR & BEAUTY 

SEPTEMBER SEPTEMBER 2015 | ISSUE 2015 #35 | ISSUE | HAIR #35& BEAUTY 

After seasons of loose waves a newly 

grown-up take on hair is here for 

autumn/winter 2015. . 

Fresh spins on the “up-do”, move towards 

a more luxurious and expensive look. Here’s 

how you can create a few simple styles this 

season. 

Low Pony Tails 

There were messy ones, sleek ones, side 

ones, and ones wrapped in metal, but lucky 

for us this season the height of the ponytail 

is being lowered taking us from playground 

territory to new levels of sophistication. Tie 

your hair in a low pony and away you go. 

Steering sideways 

The deep glamorous side part is back. The 

70’s inspired look is a great face framer! A 

side part can add more depth to an up-do 

creating more interest and shape. 

The new twist 

Embrace your messy side - the classic 

French twist is now back and worn more 

loosely. Simply sweep your hair to the side 

and simply twist your hair upwards in this 

style you don’t even have to worry about 

tucking the ends in – just pin it into place. 

Tie the knot 

The word ‘bun’ is out this season, replace 

it with the word ‘knot’. Knots are thrown 

together when you’re having too much fun 

to care about your hair. They end up looking 

as good, if not better, than the strict bun. 

To create simply divide your hair into two 

pieces and tie it in a knot. You could do a 

few little ones throughout the hair or one 

statement knot. The possibilities are endless!

September 

Late summer progresses 

By Kate Lines 

Kates Top Tip : Plan ahead - Buy springflowering 

bedding plants and buy or order 

spring-flowering bulbs. 

September is generally a cooler, 

gustier month than August and the 

days are noticeably shorter. 

While there’s not as much to do in the ornamental 

garden at this time of the year, if you have a fruit or 

vegetable patch, you’ll be busy reaping the rewards 

of harvest. 

Propagation 

Take cuttings of tender perennials, such as 

Pelargonium and Osteospermum. 

These plants often do better grown from new 

cuttings each year. If you do not have a greenhouse, 

then use a light windowsill to grow them on. 

It’s also time to get out and start planting springflowering 

bulbs for next year and you can collect 

seeds for next summer’s colour too. Make the most 

of the remaining warmth while you can! 

Continue collecting and storing seed from perennials 

still forming seed heads. Bring inside any tender 

perennials, such as Fuchsia, Gazania, Lantana and 

Abutilon, before frosts cause damage. 

96

HOME & GARDEN 



Top jobs this month: 

1. Divide herbaceous perennials 

2. Pick autumn raspberries 

6. Keep up with watering of new plants, using rain 

or grey water if possible 

7. Start to reduce the frequency of houseplant 

watering 

3. Collect and sow seed from perennials and hardy 

annuals 

8. Clean out cold frames and greenhouses so that 

they are ready for use in the autumn 

4. Dig up remaining potatoes before slug damage 

spoils them 

9. Cover leafy vegetable crops with bird-proof 

netting 

5. Net ponds before leaf fall gets underway 

10. Plant spring flowering bulbs

SPORT 

Keane Ipswich Town team once made exactly the 

same excellent start – 10 points from a possible 12. 

And we all know how that ended. 

Early days, but why 

shouldn’t we get excited 

along IP1? 

I think we all had high hopes 

going into the new season. 

Another tilt at the top six 

was a realistic prospect 

after a summer of keeping 

hold of virtually all our big 

names and then delicately 

interweaving some new 

faces. 

12 months ago, we had 

Frank Nouble and Anthony 

Wordsworth. Now we have 

Brett Pitman and Ainsley 

Maitland-Niles. 

And what a start it has been. I can push 

Bounce editors so much when it comes to 

deadlines but as I write this, Ipswich Town are 

top of the embryonic Championship table. 

Promotion favourites Burnley have been 

comfortably dealt with and a tricky trip to 

Preston was negotiated thanks to a cracking 

goal by Ryan Fraser – both from a team and 

individual perspective. 

We shouldn’t get carried away after just four 

games and we know a Mick McCarthy-led 

squad certainly won’t. Especially after one 

wag on Twitter reminded fans that a Roy 

But why shouldn’t fans a) enjoy the present and b) 

remain positive and hopeful for the future. 

Isn’t that what being a football fan is all about? 

There are enough bad times and mediocre times, so 

why not embrace the exciting ones and live in the 

moment. 

For me, what is particular satisfying is that other 

clubs are offering astronomical fees for players (yes, 

I’m looking at you Burnley and Bristol City) whereas 

having the right man in charge can be priceless. 

In McCarthy, Ipswich have that man and whatever 

this season brings, you know Ipswich will end it in a 

stronger overall position. 

What has been particularly 

impressive is the way they have 

bounced back from losing those 

two late, woeful, goals at Brentford 

to turn three points into one on 

opening day. 

It became a poor start to the 

season, in one way, but the three 

games since has been anything but. 

The Championship looks as tough as 

ever with sleeping giants, up-andcomers 

and fallen Premier League 

sides licking their wounds. 

But Ipswich have a chance. They finally have pace 

in their ranks in the shape of the hugely impressive 

Fraser and Maitland-Niles. 

In David McGoldrick, Daryl Murphy, Freddie Sears 

and Pitman, they have the best strike force in the 

second tier. And at a cost of £100,000 whereas 

Burnley have just spent a reported £9 million on 

Andre Gray. I’ll let that sink in for a bit. 

And while we are ending on discussions around 

money, Ipswich still have quite a bit in the pot from 

the Tyrone Mings sale. It is indeed hard not to get 

excited.

By ROSS “ACTION 

MAN” WISHART 

Let’s get ready 

TO RUMBLE... 

This month Action Man steps 

into the ring with professional 

mix martial artist Arnold 

‘Almighty’ Allen. 

Arnold, who hails from Felixstowe, 

at just 21 years old, is already a full 

time MMA fighter with a record of 

10-1 with his latest bout being an 

outstanding win by submission in 

the UFC. 

The critics who weren’t already talking about 

Allen certainly are now with the young Suffolk 

man set to go very far indeed. 

So I caught up with ‘Almighty’ at his base with 

BKK Fighters in Colchester for my first taste of 

MMA and to find out how Arnold started and 

what’s next. 

It started from a very young age from wrestling 

his brother to training with his father, strongman 

turned MMA fighter, Pacer Allen. Arnold’s love for 

the sport grew rapidly as did his skill level which 

saw him turn professional at the age of just 18. 

With string of very impressive fights and victories 

he was pushing for a UFC fight and there was 

no hesitation in accepting the offer when the 

call came in despite having only 1 weeks’ notice 

104

SEPTEMBER 2015 | ISSUE #35 | SPORT 


SPORT 

to fight at UFC 69 in Berlin. His opponent was 

German based Alan Omer who had a record of 

18-4 including 12 first round finishes, a formidable 

record but Allen lived up to his ‘Almighty’ billing 

by forcing the submission by guillotine choke in 

the third round. 

As the forth youngest fighter on the UFC roster 

time is on Arnold’s side but he is already keen to 

push on and is planning on a trip to the States to 

team up with MMA group Team Alpha Male for a 

month on intense training. 

It’ll take a few fights for him to work his way up 

the rankings and push for a title shot but do not 

be at all surprised if you see a UFC title bouncing 

its way across the pond following Bruce Buffer’s 

announcement “and the NEW…” 

Keen to try out some MMA? Want to learn from 

and train with the best? Well you can! 

Arnold trains and teaches at BKK fighters on 

Spurgeon St, Colchester (www.bkkfighters.com) 

which has an MMA class starting at 1830hrs every 

weekday evening this is also followed with a 

Brazilian Jujitsu, Muay Thai or boxing session. 

Don’t worry about going toe to toe with the pros 

all classes are suitable and open to beginners, 

they welcome some fresh meat! Action Man 

sparred with Arnold in his class and it’s fairly safe 

to say that my UFC call up won’t be coming any 

time soon! But it was a great session, I learnt a 

lot and will definitely be back there soon. MMA at 

BKK is A-OK!

BY Helen Bye, Fitness Instructor, Bury St Edmunds 

Leisure Centre 

We’ve spent the last five 

issues talking about how 

to get started and what 

exercise is right for you. 

For our last edition, it’s all about how to keep 

your motivation and make those first few 

sessions into a habit. 

Bring a friend: Working out with 

someone else is a great motivator. Not only is 

there an element of friendly competition, but 

there’s also now someone who you don’t want 

to let down. Unfortunately, we let ourselves 

down all the time and make excuses for 

why we can’t do things; but we’re more 

committed to our friends. 

Pack your bag: A simple one, but effective. 

Pack your back for exercise the night before. 

That way, you’re ready to roll out of bed and 

get moving, or grab the bag after work. Keep 

the momentum going and don’t let having 

to get everything together when bed is more 

comfortable be an option! 

Track your progress: Make a check list 

and tick off your progress. If you have visible 

evidence of your exercise, you’ll be more 

inclined to keep moving forward. Any days 

you don’t exercise or train, mark with a big red 

X – after seeing a few of those, you’ll want to 

get back out there!

Set achievable goals: Don’t set 

yourself up to fail. By giving yourself 

unachievable targets, you may lose 

the drive and will you need to reach 

them. Instead, set smaller targets which 

culminate if your larger ambition. 

If you have, or you have any tips or hints 

for your fellow This Girl Can enthusiasts, 

tweet us at @burystedslc 

and use the #thisgirlcan 

hashtag. 

Example: I want to be able to run one 

mile, rather than I want to run a half 

marathon. One mile will become three 

which will become six. 

Change it up: If you’re getting 

bored doing the same exercise, 

make a change. If that’s in the gym, 

ask for a programme change. If 

you’re running, change your route 

and if you’re training at home, try 

a new DVD. Keep evolving and 

learning and you’ll find your niche. 

The Early Bird: 

Getting up an hour 

earlier is easier than 

trying to do exercise 

after a long day at 

work. If you keep 

your training to 

when you feel fresh, you’ll 

find it easier to commit. 

There are too many after 

work drinks, dinners or 

general sofa reclining when 

you finish at the office to 

distract you. 

We hope you’ve enjoyed 

our This Girl Can chat in 

Bounce Magazine 

and we hope you’ve 

been inspired to 

maybe start your 

own fitness journey.

SEPTEMBER 2015 | ISSUE #35 | MUSIC & ENTERTAINMENT 

TheAtre 

Royal 

By Nicki Dixon 

September is a packed month at the 

Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds with 

comedy, music, memories and drama 

all featuring – we even talk football! 

Kicking off the month with an evening of 

hilarious comedy from the West End are 

that iconic double act, Jeeves & Wooster in 

Perfect Nonsense (2-5 September). With five 

star reviews and such gloriously-named characters 

as Gussie Fink-Nottle and Roderick Spode, it’s an 

evening of bonkers comedy featuring madcap 

Bertie Wooster and his ever-dependable butler, 

Jeeves. 

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of one of the most 

loved musicals of all time, Sing-a-Long-a Sound 

of Music (11 September) lets you warble away to 

all the film’s popular songs including Climb Every 

Mountain, The Lonely Goatherd and Edelweiss 

This screening of the film is in glorious Technicolour 

featuring subtitles so everyone can sing along! Oh, 

and dressing up is strongly encouraged! 

Five Ipswich Town Legends, including former 

England captain, Terry Butcher, present an 

unmissable evening of stories and anecdotes 

about the club and their playing careers in An 

Evening With Ipswich Town Football Club Legends 

(13 September). 

Butcher is joined 

by Russell Osman, 

Simon Milton, Bryan 

Hamilton and Allan 

Hunter for a night 

of all things football and there’s also an opportunity 

to book your place (£15) to meet the guys after the 

show. 

If the Roaring Twenties is you thing then The Great 

Gatsby is a must see (17-19 September) and if you 

really want to go all out, join in with the Speakeasy 

on 18 September when pearls, fringed dresses, sharp 

suits and sequins are welcome! 

Another September highlight is the return of 

journalist, and former MP, Martin Bell to the Theatre 

Royal (25 September). This time he pays tribute to 

the Suffolk Regiment, through music and memories 

with the Suffolk Concert Band. 

Bell did his National Service with the Suffolk 

Regiment which saw 274 years of continuous service 

up to 1959. 

And rounding off the month in smart, sexy, sassy 

style is Miss Nightingale – The Musical which 

promises glitz, glamour and showbiz 1940s style.

Music 

Bury St Edmunds based alt-rock 

trio... 

Horse Party formed in September 2012 when 

singing guitarists Ellie Langley and Seymour 

Quigley met drummer Shannon Hope at 

Seymour’s ‘Washing Machine’ clubnights in their 

hometown of Bury St Edmunds. 

Horse Party 

Following a string of self-released singles and 

EPs during 2013, the band’s 2014 debut album 

‘Cover Your Eyes’ (on Integrity Records, the 

original home of Frank Turner) received critical 

acclaim and airplay from XFM, Amazing Radio 

and 6music, while an always-busy touring 

schedule has seen the band supporting the 

likes of Slaves, Levellers, Basement Jaxx, The 

Nightingales, Shonen Knife, Ghostpoet, Dingus 

Khan and We Are The Physics, and bleeding 

onstage at Latitude, The Unorthodox Paradox, 

Norwich Sound & Vision and Beat-Herder 

festivals. 

Hot on the heels of June’s free download single 

‘What I’d Do’, Bury St Edmunds based altrock 

trio Horse Party are set to release a new 

three-track 7” vinyl EP, ‘Paydirt’, on Friday 4th 

September through legendary Cambridge label 

R*E*P*E*A*T Records and the band’s own Pure 

Deadly imprint. 

Shannon, Ellie, Seymour 

Recorded at Punch Studios in Ipswich by 

producer and sex machine George Perks, the 

‘Paydirt’ 7” is strictly limited to 300 copies 

and can be pre-ordered right now at www. 

horsepartyparty.bandcamp.com It will also be 

available to download/stream via iTunes, Amazon 

and Spotify.

Archie’s 

Adventures 

A DOG NAMED ROSA… 

It hits us at the most unexpected of 

moment’s… yes folks they do call it 

puppy love. 

I’ve recently moved to a new little 

village called ‘Huntingfield’ it’s 

bloomin’ marvelous, I be spoilt by 

country life everyday now, not to 

mention the new walks through 

Heveningham Hall and fields of 

sheep. 

Mind you, those sheep are noisy 

little toe rags, but I am now showing 

those rascals whose boss with our 

‘baa’ vs barking competitions at night. 

Not sure what the neighbours think of that mind 

you? Probably not the quickest way to make friends, 

however the pub… now that’s a different bowl of 

biscuits. 

The Huntingfield Arms, lets us four legged friends 

through the door and I’ve made plenty of new 

chums there, Mylo and Ruby to name a few. 

Anyway… getting to the point whilst on my country 

trots, I see a young female whippet. 

Whilst mesmerized by her pounces and 

bounces through the fields I couldn’t 

help but to hang out my tongue. If 

only I could wolf whistle. 

Oh Rosa! 

I have been pretending to not 

like her, playing a hard pup 

to get – I even growled at her 

the other day but that’s the 

Terrier in me. I might be a small 

lad but I am mighty tough. 

Perhaps I should just bite the bone and 

ask her to the pub, but its more complicated 

for us furry ones. 

If any of you have any advice you can give me then 

give me a tweet or two, I could do with some Dutch 

courage!
