SUN, SEA…..and REX<br />

With the grey clouds at last starting to give<br />

way to bouts of brilliant sunshine, now's<br />

the time to rejuvenate your senses and<br />

exercise your dog at the same time by<br />

heading for our sparkling coastline. But<br />

where can you and Rex, your<br />

poo-producing, sandwich-stealing pooch<br />

actually go without upsetting everyone<br />

else around you? Read on, Sophie's Pet<br />

Care have got it all sorted...<br />

free bits of hot sausage. Now it's changed<br />

hands, and become a no-dog zone inside.<br />

However, there's a wide selection of<br />

public seating with rejuvenating sea views<br />

outside, and you can grab a snack and a<br />

drink from the beachfront shop. <strong>The</strong>re are<br />

also public conveniences available.<br />

Gundimore Beach at Mudeford is ideal.<br />

Unlike it's neighbour Avon Beach — where<br />

from May they'll fine you and your fourlegged<br />

friend for setting foot on it —<br />

little-known Gundimore, right next door<br />

remains "dog friendly" all the year round.<br />

You can leave your vehicle in the sunken<br />

car park just behind the beach, or admire<br />

the view from the public car park adjacent<br />

to the Noisy Lobster Cafe. It's situated<br />

right on the seafront overlooking the Isle<br />

of Wight.<br />

Gundimore Beach begins just to the right<br />

of this car park and continues in a westerly<br />

direction up toward Mudeford Quay.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re's usually a few dogs on the beach<br />

cavorting around and plunging manfully<br />

into the freezing waves. No one bothers<br />

them or you as long as you pick up your<br />

poo (well, not your poo exactly.... umm,<br />

you know what we mean).<br />

<strong>The</strong> Noisy Lobster Cafe used to be<br />

dog-friendly, didn't mind sandy floors and<br />

wet dogs and would often dish them out<br />

We can supply a walk route sheet if you<br />

fancy a wander around Gundimore in case<br />

you're stuck for inspiration.<br />

If you'd like a printable PDF of this walk<br />

route that you can take with you, simply<br />

email walkies@sophiespetcare.com and<br />

we'll send you one completely free of<br />

charge, and tell you about the services we<br />

can offer to you and your dog.<br />

See you next month from some more<br />

canine capers and hot news from the<br />

dogosphere!<br />

NOTES FROM THE SOLENT CELLAR<br />

Poiron Dabin| New Arrivals from the Loire<br />

At the Solent Cellar, we love sharing our<br />

new wine discoveries from our travels.<br />

Our latest trip encompassed several<br />

appellations of the Loire Valley, ending our<br />

trip South East of Nantes in the heart of<br />

Muscadet country.<br />

Poiron Dabin Sauvignon Blanc, IGP 2017 -<br />

Initial vine cuttings came from the<br />

prestigious village of Sancerre, this wine<br />

represents amazing value. Delicate but ripe<br />

passionfruit notes on the nose as well as<br />

pear. It has a long citrus finish.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re has been some resurgence going on<br />

in Muscadet over the recent years, and<br />

quality is definitely on the up! <strong>The</strong> younger<br />

generations are taking over the reins and<br />

introducing new ideas and techniques.<br />

Yields are being lowered and organic<br />

viticulture is becoming more common. <strong>The</strong><br />

creation of a new Cru status for exceptional<br />

areas for Muscadet has been exciting for<br />

growers and this has resulted in the<br />

creation of more complex wines. Although<br />

only 2% of Muscadet's production accounts<br />

for 'Cru Communal' it has raised the profile<br />

of the region highlighting the importance of<br />

terroir.<br />

Living on the South Coast , we love pairing<br />

the wines we have to the amazing array of<br />

fresh, local produce. At this time of year,<br />

the white wines from the Loire are perfect<br />

with fresh seafood such as <strong>Lymington</strong> Crab<br />

or Poole bay oysters. <strong>The</strong> asparagus season<br />

is also upon us, and there is nothing better<br />

than a plate of the beautiful spears freshly<br />

steamed and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc<br />

from the region.<br />

We visited on our trip, Poiron<br />

Dabin a small producer. This<br />

family owned estate work to<br />

the Terra Vitis production<br />

method, which follow<br />

sustainable farming methods:<br />

Poiron Dabin Muscadet Sur Lie Veille<br />

Vignes - A wine from 50 year old vines, this<br />

produces a classic 'Sur Lie' Muscadet with<br />

citrus and green apple notes and<br />

minerality. Pair to oysters!<br />

Poiron Dabin Sauvignon 'Fie Gris' 2017 -<br />

From one of their more obscure grape<br />

varieties which has a pinkish hue to the<br />

skin, this is fruity, slightly riper style with a<br />

touch of elderflower and ripe apple. <strong>The</strong><br />

perfect match would be Asian food with a<br />

touch of spice, or fish baked with aromatic<br />

herbs.<br />

Poiron Dabin Chateau <strong>The</strong>baud 'Clos des<br />

Tabardieres' Sevre et Maine' 2012 - <strong>The</strong><br />

top Cru communal wine where vineyards<br />

are on prime granite sites, this wine spends<br />

55 months on lees (minimum for this cru<br />

wine is 24). It has an amazing depth of<br />

flavour, ripe notes of apple, acacia honey<br />

and a stony minerality. Save this for a<br />

celebratory dish of brill or turbot. This wine<br />

can age for up to 20 years in the cellar!<br />

OUT ON THE WATER<br />

10<br />

Whether you have a petrol or outboard powered craft, or a diesel inboard boat, below are<br />

listed a few essential checks to help you get back on the water this season<br />

Fuel: Petrol<br />

Petrol will go stale so fill up your Fuel tank to<br />

dilute any existing fuel.<br />

Replace any canister fuel filters or clean out<br />

any water traps or washable fuel filters.<br />

Replace or clean spark plugs, especially if the<br />

engine has been “fogged” before winter<br />

storage.<br />

Prime the fuel system and recheck the water<br />

traps (condensation in fuel tanks over winter<br />

months can create a surprising amount of<br />

water in fuel tanks.)<br />

Add fuel conditioner to your tanks – a well<br />

worth investment, especially when today’s<br />

petrol contains 10% ethanol.<br />

Fuel: Diesel<br />

Same as above with the filters etc.<br />

Add a biocide and water absorber to prevent<br />

“bug” in the tank.<br />

Bleed fuel through to eliminate air in fuel<br />

system.<br />

Ignition system, Electrical contact points &<br />

Air Filters<br />

Most petrol ignition systems are now modern<br />

style CDI or TCI that require little<br />

maintenance, but if you have an old distributor<br />

style system the points will need cleaning<br />

etc.<br />

Batteries should be on trickle charge, and<br />

stored off the floor in a warm environment<br />

during the winter months. Recharge, check<br />

the fluids and when battery terminals are<br />

refitted, make sure the contacts are clean<br />

and then lubricated with Vaseline or similar.<br />

Check all domestic fuse boxes or exposed<br />

connections, and check vital electrical items<br />

such as bilge pumps, navigation lights etc. A<br />

systems check on VHF and GPS would also be<br />

recommended.<br />

Replace or at least check air filters. Don’t<br />

forget to remove the rag you may have<br />

stuffed up the air intake or the bag sealing<br />

the exhaust!<br />

Steering & Controls, Gear Boxes & Propellers<br />

Check to see if the steering system works freely<br />

before you attempt to launch at the slipway.<br />

Likewise run & test the outboard or stern drive<br />

engine before launching and check the operation<br />

of throttle & gear shift. Nothing more<br />

embarrassing than launching and finding you’re<br />

stuck at high revs in reverse!!<br />

On Outboards & Sterndrives, change the gear oil if<br />

not already done - an absolute must especially if<br />

the boat is staying in the water.<br />

Likewise, check anodes on both the cavitation<br />

plate, and prop shaft or engine bracket assembly.<br />

Anti foul with suitable coating if required.<br />

Check out the propeller, re-flare the blades if<br />

required, and if possible, remove prop and grease<br />

the shaft. On smaller engines with shear pins<br />

check to see if you have spares!<br />

If you trailer a boat, then always check the wheel<br />

bearings before setting off and lubricate – better<br />

safe than sorry.<br />

Likewise trailer brakes and lighting boards also<br />

require a quick check.<br />

Before you launch, ensure all drain bungs are<br />

refitted, sea cocks are turned off and your<br />

mooring warps, fenders and anchor is on board<br />

ready to use.<br />

If you are leaving your boat on a mooring during<br />

the summer months, then an appropriate<br />

anti-foul applied to the hull will prevent foul build<br />

up and subsequent poor performance.<br />

It is also good practise to check the expiry date of<br />

flares, lifejackets and service dates on life-rafts<br />

and please, please, please wear your kill cord at all<br />

times.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re will be other items that will need checking<br />

so always consult the professionals if unsure.<br />

intimate setting of St<br />

Thomas Church.<br />

Director, pianist Sam<br />

Haywood. Cellist<br />

Katherine has<br />

participated in every<br />

festival since it was<br />

founded in 2013.<br />

'I've always liked to<br />

think of my audience<br />

as individuals, I<br />

suppose it's a way of<br />

controlling nerves. But<br />

what I realise every<br />

time I come to play at<br />

the Solent Music Festival<br />

is that yes, I'm<br />

playing/connecting<br />

with the individual as I<br />

always try to, but the<br />

SMF audience are a<br />

collective experience<br />

too. A family. A warm<br />

vibrant community that<br />

are hungry to have<br />

good music. I can't<br />

wait to be part of it all<br />

again.'<br />

Dazzle: Disguise and<br />

Disruption in War and<br />

Art<br />

16 <strong>June</strong> – 23 Sept<br />

Art historian James Taylor is the guest<br />

curator for a ground-breaking exhibition opening at St<br />

Barbe Museum and Art Gallery in <strong>Lymington</strong> on 16<br />

<strong>June</strong> <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Dazzle tells the fascinating story of how the use of<br />

patterning on warships was introduced in the First<br />

World War to confuse U-boat commanders as to the<br />

speed and direction of the vessels.<br />

<strong>The</strong> exhibition, featuring works of art on loan from the<br />

Imperial War Museum, National Maritime Museum and<br />

British Museum, as well as regional and private collections,<br />

is based around paintings, drawings and prints<br />

by artists such as Wilkinson, Wadsworth, and<br />

Montague Dawson.<br />

HAVE YOU HEARD THE MYTH?<br />

<strong>The</strong>re is a myth that I would like to expel by<br />

telling you a story.<br />

Susan and Mark fell in love when they were<br />

in their early twenties. <strong>The</strong>y didn’t think<br />

much to the idea of marriage - they had a<br />

joint bank account and they lived together<br />

which was pretty much the same thing.<br />

Wasn’t it?<br />

<strong>The</strong> years went by and they added to their<br />

family, with two lovely children. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

moved into their own home. When the<br />

property was purchased as Susan wasn’t<br />

working and it was easier it was put in<br />

Mark’s name. But that didn’t matter, did it?<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir friends and family would often ask<br />

whether they were going to get married,<br />

<strong>The</strong>y didn’t see the point -they would state<br />

that they were ‘common law’ husband and<br />

wife and they didn’t need a piece of paper.<br />

One family friend suggested that if they<br />

weren’t intending to get married then they<br />

should make Wills. <strong>The</strong>y didn’t get around<br />

to it.<br />

Mark died suddenly in his early sixties.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re was still a little bit of mortgage<br />

outstanding on the property. <strong>The</strong> children<br />

were both now in their thirties with<br />

families of their own.<br />

Susan suddenly found that she did not have<br />

the same rights as a spouse or civil partner<br />

and there was no such entity as a common<br />

law spouse.<br />

Susan inherited the bank account as it was<br />

a joint account. However, as the house was<br />

Mark’s, she may have rights to live in it , as<br />

she had been living there as a couple.<br />

However, as they were only cohabitees, it<br />

may not be plain sailing. Under the Rules<br />

of Intestacy that apply when someone dies<br />

without a Will, the house passed to the<br />

children not to Susan. If Susan wanted the<br />

house she would have to apply to the court<br />

under the Inheritance (Family and<br />

Dependents) Act 1975 as she would be a<br />

recognised dependant.<br />

This is only one of many stories we could<br />

tell in relation to people dying without a<br />

Will. <strong>The</strong> most distressing part for your<br />

family ,is that not leaving clear instructions<br />

in a Will means that the whole process of<br />

dealing with your estate will be more<br />

complex and could leave the people you<br />

care about most with provision.<br />

Let us help you put your wishes into words.<br />

WHAT 0N EARTH IS GDPR?<br />

You may have heard about the General<br />

Data Protection Regulations which are just<br />

become law but may not have any idea<br />

what it means for regular people. You’re<br />

not alone. To fully explain GDPR would<br />

take more space than I have here, but I<br />

hope to give you an idea of how it affects<br />

you.<br />

<strong>The</strong> reasoning behind GDPR is that<br />

businesses have been playing fast and<br />

loose with our personal information,<br />

without too much in the way of risk to<br />

themselves. For large companies, a fine of<br />

£500,000 isn’t really a deterrent. £17m or<br />

4% of annual turnover, whichever is<br />

higher, hurts a bit more.<br />

But it’s not just about what happens when<br />

things go wrong. GDPR also gives the little<br />

man the right to know what information a<br />

company is holding about them, how long<br />

they intend to hold it, what justification<br />

they have to do so and the right to have<br />

the information completely destroyed.<br />

If there is a valid legal reason, such as part<br />

of a contract, then there is no right to be<br />

forgotten. But otherwise companies have<br />

to comply with removal requests within a<br />

reasonable timescale and can be reported<br />

to the Information Commissioners Office,<br />

who have much more power now, if they<br />

don’t.<br />

Companies also have to publicly publish<br />

how they deal with your personal information<br />

and how long they intend to hold<br />

on to it. <strong>The</strong>y also have to say how<br />

individuals can contact them with queries<br />

or requests specifically relating to personal<br />

data.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se details are commonly linked to on<br />

company websites, so look for links to<br />

things like Personal Data Protection Policy,<br />

Data Retention Policy or Data Privacy<br />

Notice at the bottom of website pages, or<br />

in their legal sections.<br />

Most importantly, they cannot keep your<br />

information without your consent if they<br />

have no other reason to keep it. <strong>The</strong>re is<br />

something called ‘Legitimate Interest’ as<br />

well as legal contracts which allow data<br />

retention, but companies can only use<br />

your data for the use they are claiming<br />

legitimate interest. <strong>The</strong>y can’t for instance<br />

add you to their email list as well if they<br />

don’t have your explicit consent to do so.<br />

Companies have to renew any consent you<br />

give on a regular basis and if they ask you,<br />

and you don’t reply, they have to remove<br />

you from their records. See<br />

www.ico.org.uk for more information.<br />
