A new initiative to give dogs a warm 

welcome in Bury St Edmunds... 

DOG FRIENDLY BURY 

Shops, eateries, places to stay, 

attractions, and other businesses 

will be able to display the 

#dogfriendlybse paw print logo 

sticker in their window and put 

out a dog water bowl to show 

they are dog friendly. 

The initiative, funded by Bury St 

Edmunds Town Council, aims to help 

visitors and residents easily identify 

businesses that are dog friendly in and 

around Bury St Edmunds. 

‘Dog-Friendly Bury St Edmunds’ was 

launched at Really Rather Good, a café 

in Abbeygate Street and just one of the 

many dog friendly businesses in the 

town. 

You can find a list of dog friendly places 

If you are a business that would like to join, contact the 

Town Council Offices on 01284 725111 or email info@ 

burystedmunds-tc.gov.uk. Follow Dog Friendly Bury 

St Edmunds on twitter: twitter.com/Dogfriendlybse 

and Instagram: www.instagram.com/dogfriendlybse/ 

#dogfriendlybse. 

in and around Bury St Edmunds who have signed up 

to the initiative and who display the Dog Friendly 

Bury St Edmunds paw print sticker in their window on 

the Bury St Edmunds Town Council website at 

www.burystedmunds-tc.gov.uk/home/dogfriendly 

On the website you can also find a ‘Dog-Friendly 

Charter’ which sets out the responsibilities of both 

the business owners and dog owners. 

This will include some safety guidance and it is 

important to note that business owners still have the 

right to refuse entry or ask someone to leave the 

premises if a dog is unruly, out of control or 

anti-social.

Well hello there! I’m back with my monthly column… OK, so firstly a reminder 

about me. I’m Zena (Zee for short), I’m 45, a mother and a grandmother. 

Ok, so here we are November! How 

did that happen, hey? 

It’s my favourite month 

because it’s our wedding 

anniversary. 

Like each year we are 

spending it in beautiful 

Southwold in a cottage 

by the sea for five days. 

When we got married 

four years ago, it was like 

a spring day so fingers crossed the 

sun comes out! 

Now I’ve been busy with the blog and 

there are more interviews up in my

NOVEMBER NOVEMBER 2018 | 2018 ISSUE | ISSUE #73 | #73 WEDDING 

WeddingAngel 

A Winter Wedding 

BY LISA MARIE SMITH 

Winter weddings can 

be utterly magical and 

romantic, but there are 

a few inevitable issues 

that go hand in hand with 

weddings held during the 

darker months. 

If you’re having a winter 

wedding, don’t panic; all 

these problems are really 

small and totally avoidable 

with some preparations 

beforehand. Here are my 

tops tips: 

It will be cold so accessories will be important to keep 

warm. A faux fur stole, a veil, a cape or a chic cardie 

are all good options. Alternatively opt for a long sleeve 

wedding dress. 

2. VELVET CHIC FOR THE GUYS... 

For grooms and groomsmen a velvet blazer is ideal. It’s 

a nice thick fabric which will keep the guys warm, plus 

is perfectly on-trend. 

3. DON’T FORGET BEAUTY PREP... 

Chapped lips and dry skin are inevitable come winter. 

Keep your lips moisturised in the run up to the wedding 

(I highly recommend Elizabeth Arden’s 8 Hour Cream) 

use a good face moisturiser and have a chapstick in 

your clutch on the day. 

4. UNDER YOUR DRESS... 

If it’s very cold you can always wear thick tights under 

your wedding dress (as long as it’s long) - nobody will 

know! This goes for your bridesmaids too. 

1. INVEST IN WINTER 

ACCESSORIES 

5. CONSIDER STYLISH WINTER FOOTWEAR... 

Boots can be a stylish (and practical) bridal shoe 

20

WEDDING 

NOVEMBER NOVEMBER 2018 | 2018 ISSUE | ISSUE #73 | #73 WEDDING 

option for winter weddings, 

especially if it rains. 

6. INDULGE IN SOME GLITTER... 

You can’t get more festive than 

bridesmaids in glitter. Sequin or 

glitter dresses are always easy to 

find come winter, plus they look 

wonderful in photos. 

7. EXTRA TRAVEL TIME... 

Bad weather means bad traffic, so 

give extra time for travel to your 

ceremony - no matter how near or 

far you are going. 

8. ADD ROMANCE WITH 

CANDLES... 

It will be dark quite early. Embrace it 

with lots of romantic candle light in 

both your ceremony and reception 

space. 

9. WINTER WEDDING COLOURS... 

Decorate in rich, warm tones of 

berry red, burgundy, black and gold. 

Add extra wintry romance with lots 

of natural greenery, or even a hint 

of tartan. 

10. KEEP GUESTS WARM... 

Consider making an effort to ensure 

your guests are kept warm and 

cheery once they arrive. A hot drink 

on arrival is a nice and simple idea. 

DON’T FORGET... 

Ice cold blue hands are not a good 

look in winter wedding pictures, this 

is where hand warmers come in. 

Until next time...

Howard Winstone 

the Welsh 

Wizzard... 


BY RALPH OATES 

A series of articles which will feature boxing facts 

from both the past to the present... 

Howard Winstone was a 

remarkable fighter by any 

standards of the imagination. 

Even after losing the tips off of 

three of his fingers on his right 

hand in an accident at work the 

Welshman showed a fighting 

spirit to overcome this disability. 

Winstone became a wizard in 

the ring with his speed and 

clever movement. Winstone who 

was born on the 15 April 1939 

had before turning professional 

a successful amateur career 

winning the Amateur Boxing 

Association bantamweight 

title in 1958 and in the same 

year a gold medal at the 

Commonwealth games then 

called (Empire). 

In the professional ranks 

Winstone won not just 

the British, European and 

featherweight titles but also 

the world crown in said weight 

category. Winstone stopped 

Japan’s Mitsunori Seki at the 

Royal Albert Hall Kensington in 

London for the vacant World 

Boxing Council championship on 

the 23rd January 1968 in round 

nine of a slated fifteen. (This was 

the Welshman’s fourth attempt 

at a world featherweight title. 

Previous challenges took place 

against Mexico’s Vicente Saldivar 

on the 7th September 1965 for 

the undisputed championship. 

Saldivar was a man destined 

to be ranked with the greats 

in the division. Winstone gave 

the Mexican a difficult night’s 

work at the Earls Court Arena 

in Kensington London but lost a 

fifteen round point’s decision. 

On the 15th June 1967 Winstone 

challenged the Mexican for a 

second time the fight was close 

and a number in attendance felt 

that the Welshman may have 

shaded it. Once again Winstone 

came up short losing a fifteen 

round point’s decision at Ninian 

Park, Cardiff in Wales to the 

champion. 

The third attempt took place 

on the 14th October 1967 in 

a contest which saw the saw 

Welsh fighter travel to the 

Estadio Azteca in Mexico 

City, Mexico to battle Saldivar. 

Pundits did not feel Winstone 

would bring the title home, 

commonsense dictated that if 

he couldn’t defeat the Mexican 

on home turf how was he going 

to defeat the champion in his 

own backyard, plus he had to 

deal with the country’s high 

altitude. Winstone put in a brave 

performance yet once again 

suffered defeat when stopped 

by Saldivar in round twelve of 

fifteen. 

24 

The surprise retirement of 

Saldivar after the Winstone 

victory opened the door for the 

Welshman’s winning attempt at 

the crown against Mitsunori Seki. 

Winstone sadly did not have a 

long reign as World champion 

since he lost the title in his first 

defence against Jose Legra a 

Cuban born fighter who was 

resident in Spain. The contest 

took place on the 24 July 1968. 

The venue was the Coney Beach 

Arena in Porthcawl Wales. 

(Winstone had previously 

defeated Legra by way of a ten 

round points decision at the 

Winter Gardens in Blackpool on 

the 22 June 1965.) 

Winstone was now clearly 

passed his best, time and hard 

fights had caught up with 

him. Prior to the fight Legra 

was favoured to take the 

championship and did so when 

he stopped Winstone in round 

five of a scheduled fifteen. 

Howard did not fight again after 

the Legra fight he duly retired in 

1969 after comprising a record 

of 67 bouts with 61 victories and 

six defeats. 

Winstone who was awarded the 

MBE sadly passed away on the 

30 September 2000 at the age 

of sixty one year’s five months 

and fifteen days.

RICK WAKEMAN 

We speak to Rick Wakeman about his upcoming tour.. 

Following the hugely successful Piano 

Portraits tour last year, in support of the 

album of the same name, Rick Wakeman 

will return in Autumn 2018 with a new show 

based on the follow up release, entitled Piano 

Odyssey, which will be released September 

14th. 

journey, all accompanied by his hilarious 

memories and anecdotes about the tunes, 

plus a few musical surprises. 

In December, an additional special Christmas 

tour will follow, in which the setlist will be 

given a distinctly seasonal twist. 

The now twenty-six date tour will feature even 

more classic tracks given Rick’s unique piano 

treatment, and will travel to towns and cities 

not previously visited in 2017. 

Upon the release of his Piano Portraits album 

in January 2017, the YES keyboardist made 

chart history, becoming the first solo piano 

album to enter the UK’s Top 10, eventually 

reaching number 

6. Inspired by the 

unprecedented public 

reaction to his cover 

of Bowie’s Life On 

Mars on BBC Radio 2 a 

year earlier, the album 

features instrumental 

versions of hits that Rick 

was originally involved 

with, such as Space 

Oddity and Morning Has 

Broken, as well as others which he chose for 

their melodies, including Stairway To Heaven 

and Help!. 

The 2018 concerts will be based on a selection 

of tracks from both Piano Odyssey and Piano 

Portraits, showcasing music that has a special 

connection with Rick’s own personal musical 

Expect a night of beautiful piano 

arrangements, interspersed with Wakeman’s 

renowned comedy interludes. 

Rachel Ducker catches up with Rick to hear all 

about it... 

R: Hello Rick how are you? I’ve been looking 

forward to speaking with you! 

Oh, you’re very brave [laughs] 

R: So first I wondered how you 

got into music? 

It was all I ever did, really. 

My parents had a concert party 

before the Second World War and 

just after the Second World War. 

I was born in 1949, and by then 

all the concert parties had folded 

up. My dad was a great piano player, we had 

a little semi house, and there was a piano in 

the room downstairs. On Sundays all of my 

relations used to come round to sing and play 

in the evening. 

Nobody really had a telly in those days. I was 

three or four years old and I would climb out

of bed and sit at the bottom of the stairs 

to listen to all of this music coming out 

and I thought it was wonderful. So all I 

ever wanted to do was to play music. 

My dad sent me to piano lessons when 

I was five and that was all I did. I went 

through all the grades; I did a scholarship 

and my dad encouraged me to listen to 

many types of music, jazz bands, rock 

bands, dance bands, pop bands and apart 

football that was my life. 

R: So what would you say to someone 

who has just started to learn how to play 

piano? 

Always be true to yourself. 

The first most important thing is to enjoy 

it, if you don’t enjoy it, stop. I would say 

that about anything because if you don’t 

enjoy it, don’t do it, find something you 

enjoy and then you will get much more 

satisfaction out of it. 

When you’re playing, you will get to know 

quickly what sort of standard you can 

reach. You don’t have to reach grade As, 

or doctors standards, just standard you 

know you’re comfortable with - and enjoy 

yourself, if you can do that then other 

people can enjoy listening. I always think 

it’s good to set yourself targets, that 

doesn’t do any harm. 

Someone at a show last year asked me 

“if you weren’t doing this right now what 

would you be doing,” and I said “well, I will 

be home playing.” 

R: Well, that was actually one of my 

questions! It’s nice to hear you have such 

passion for music and that you would be 

doing it, anyway? 

Yeah, on my last school report 

occasionally the headmaster would write 

comments, I wish I still had it - I think my 

mother destroyed it out of disgust. It said, 

“Wakeman will either end up in one of 

three places, Westminster, on stage at the 

London Palladium, or Wormwood Scrubs 

prison”. 

I have done two out of three, [laughs] I 

have been an advisor at Westminster, on 

intellectual property rights, I’ve done the 

London Palladium a few times, but not 

made Wormwood Scrubs prison. 

R: I think those two would be my 

preference! 

Yes, I have probably done the right two 

out of the three! 

R: People will know you from being 

in the band ‘Yes’, I wondered how you 

ended up being in the band? 

Well, it’s still going, there’s two ‘Yes’s’ out 

which is ridiculous, it’s a rather stupid 

thing when bands get on, and there are 

lots of different members you suddenly 

have two bands the same name, it is 

preposterous but there you go. 

Jon Anderson, who was the original 

founder and the singer, Jon and I worked 

together with Trevor Rabin, who wrote 

‘Owner Of A Lonely Heart’ and that kind 

of thing. We’ve just come back from a big 

tour of America and Japan, so we’re still 

out going. 

I joined them in 1971, three years after 

they had formed, and have been in the 

band, off and on, for about 18 years. ‘Yes’ 

has always been a tempestuous band, we 

would always argue like crazy, but there’s 

nothing wrong with that as it’s what

produces the music. 

I do, I live just outside Diss. 

There are not many jobs where you‘re on tour, 

you wake up in the morning, you come down 

to the hotel, you have breakfast together, then 

you travel together, then you work together, 

the only time you don’t see people is when 

you go to bed! I don’t care how much you like 

the people you work with if you had to do that 

with them every day there would be certain 

things that would niggle you! 

I realised early on that it’s not music that 

breaks people up it’s that you are living in each 

other’s pockets. So now in the band we give 

each other a lot of space, and that’s why it 

works so well. 

R: I guess you’ve got the balance right then? 

Yeah, it’s all down to getting the balance right 

and if you do that, then that’s fine. 

R: So Bounce is an East Anglian publication 

so all of our… 

Yeah, we know your mag! 

R: Ah that’s nice, so I wondered what’s your 

favourite place to visit locally? 

My favourite place? Oh gosh, there’s a load, 

we are fond of the sea, so we do travel to the 

coast quite a bit, Walberswick, Southwold, 

Aldeburgh, and we love Covehithe! 

R: It’s such a secret little haven! 

Yeah, we love walking down to that lagoon; we 

love going to the fens; we love RSPB Minsmere, 

and we are members. I suppose that’s the joy 

about this East coast - there are lots and lots 

of options. 

R: You’ve had the chance to work with the 

likes of Elton John, David Bowie, Cilla Black, 

Lou Reed, and Black Sabbath… 

R: Someone once asked me “what is it about 

this area you love?” and you’ve just described 

it. 

It was great! It doesn’t happen now, that 

whole thing probably lasted about four or five 

years, but it was what I call the proper days of 

sessions. I was doing two a day or sometimes 

three; I did over 2000 tracks with different 

people, some were poor, some were fantastic! 

I learnt from every one, it was a great 

apprenticeship course; I was working with 

some fantastic artists and also some fantastic 

producers and engineers. After doing so 

many sessions over those years, I knew all the 

engineers, all the studios, all the producers 

it was like a natural continuation, which was 

great. 

R: Now I believe you live somewhere on the 

Norfolk/Suffolk boarder? 

It was bound to happen with some of the new 

road structures coming in, but there are lots of 

houses going up, in some places they are doing 

it really well and others bewilder me! 

R: Yes! 

As I am sure they do you! It’s a game that 

my wife and I play when we drive along! I 

understand that villages and towns have to 

expand, but be careful how you do it! You’ve 

got to think of how it will look like in the future. 

When I was a kid, every place they built in 

the 30s had to have a parade of shops, with 

the essential shops. That’s what made it a 

community. There is none of that now, so how 

the hell can you have a community? 

33


34


FEATURE 

In the places it does exist, it’s getting eroded. 

We lost our local post office, I mean, I was 

furious; I was one of those with a placard on 

the street! 

The post office we had, we know, made a profit 

and served the community. 

Sometimes decisions are made that don’t look 

to the future and that annoys me. But that’s 

happening all over the country. 

R: I know what you mean; we don’t even have 

any banks around here anymore! 

No, we don’t – the bank that I bank with has 

gone. 

The people, who sit in their offices in front 

of computers and make these decisions, 

have forgotten how important contact with 

human people is, it’s nice to see somebody. Its 

really important. 

I am a big advocator of keeping village shops 

open and when I find one goes, I get really 

upset.. 

R: Now, onto your new show stopping by us 

in Ipswich at Christmas, how does this differ 

from the previous one? 

It’s great because it’s just down the road from 

me, it’s a fun concert – it’s a mixture of music, 

some of mine, some with other people. 

I’ve worked with such as David Bowie and Cat 

Stephens, plus some music people wouldn’t 

expect, and in-between all the pieces there are 

ludicrous stories, which all have elements of 

truth. Some as little as 1% and some have 99% 

so it’s up to people to determine what they 

think is truth or not. It’s a hilarious evening. 

I haven’t played Ipswich for a little while now, 

so it’s nice to have a show somewhere local. 

R: I always like to ask a few readers to submit 

questions… So the first is from our previous 

cover stars Jesse Quin from Keane, he asked 

- Sequential Circuits or Moog? 

Moog. 

R: Finally, from my good friend Brian Bush, “If 

you were at the start now which band would 

you be in and why”? 

Blimey! [pauses] wow, gosh, that is a really 

good question! 

Gosh… I love doing piano things an 

accompanying people, so I would have loved to 

have worked with Amy Winehouse, it 

would be great to strip everything back 

and do something with just the piano. 

With somebody like Adele would be great! 

The piano is the most amazing framework for 

a voice. 

R: Well, thank you so much for your time. 

No, you’re welcome! 

R: You are my cover for November so I hope 

you spot yourself in many places over Norfolk 

and Suffolk! 

That’s very kind, thanks Rachel I appreciate it! 

R: Well, thank you so much for your time. 

All the best for the show! 

Yeah, if you come along do come and say hello! 

R: i certainly will!

Dress Happy, Be Happy…Who Knew? 

Have you noticed, when you are 

feeling a bit low you reach for the 

same old comfy clothing? 

our mood too. So if you are feeling a bit low, 

don’t reach for the baggy jumper and jeans, dig 

out your favourite dress or outfit and notice the 

difference you feel by doing so. 

A study carried out by Professor Karen Pine 

at the University of Herefordshire found what 

a woman chooses to wear can be heavily 

dependent on her emotional state. The study of 

100 women revealed 50% would wear jeans when 

feeling depressed, only one third said they would 

wear jeans when feeling happy! 57% said they 

would wear a baggy top when feeling depressed 

and only 2% would wear one if feeling happy. 

The study also revealed how we are more likely 

to wear a favourite dress when happy compared 

to when depressed, a huge 62% wore a favourite 

dress when happy compared to only 6% when 

depressed. Interestingly, the woman in the study 

also felt they could alter their mood by changing 

what they wore. 

So What Does This Tell Us? 

This study not only shows the influence clothing 

can have on our mood, but also how it can alter 

The same principal can be applied to all sorts 

of scenarios, if you have an important meeting 

coming up, or interview, wear something you 

know will make you feel confident, because not 

only will it boost your mood it will radiate how 

good you feel to those around you. 

Try it and see... 

So in the mornings, especially now as summer 

seems like a lifetime ago, dress how you want 

to feel, rather than how you feel. Dig out that 

favourite outfit when you are feeling a little low, 

and remember we are all different, so if to you 

jeans mean ‘happy’, go for it. 

On another note, if you are finding that your low 

moods need a bit more than just your favourite 

outfit. Cognitive Hypnotherapy can be very 

effective in helping you lift your mood, so you feel 

like you again.

WELLBEING 

SEPTEMBER 2016 | ISSUE #47 | BEAUTY, HEALTH & WELLBEING 


COBRA 

POSE 

(boo-jang-GAHS-anna) 

Benefits 

Strengthens the spine 

Stretches chest and lungs, shoulders, and 

abdomen 

Firms the buttocks 

Stimulates abdominal organs 

Helps relieve stress and fatigue 

Opens the heart and lungs 

Soothes sciatica 

Therapeutic for asthma 

Traditional texts say that Bhujangasana increases 

body heat, destroys disease, and awakens 

kundalini. 

Cautions: 

Back injury, Carpal tunnel syndrome, 

Headache, Pregnancy. 

How to try the pose: 

1. Lie prone on the floor. Stretch your legs back, 

tops of the feet on the floor. Spread your hands 

on the floor under your shoulders. Hug the elbows 

back into your body. 

2. Press the tops of the feet and thighs and the 

pubis firmly into the floor. 

3. On an inhalation, begin to straighten the arms 

to lift the chest off the floor, going only to the 

height at which you can maintain a connection 

through your pubis to your legs. Press the 

tailbone toward the pubis and lift the pubis 

toward the navel. Narrow the hip points. Firm but 

don’t harden the buttocks. 

4. Firm the shoulder blades against the back, 

puffing the side ribs forward. Lift through the 

top of the sternum but avoid pushing the front 

ribs forward, which only hardens the lower back. 

Distribute the backbend evenly throughout the 

entire spine. 

5. Hold the pose anywhere from 15 to 30 seconds, 

breathing easily. Release back to the floor with an 

exhalation. 

Beginner’s Tip: 

Don’t overdo the backbend. To find the height 

at which you can work comfortably and avoid 

straining your back, take your hands off the floor 

for a moment, so that the height you find will be 

through extension. 

Partnering: 

Once in the pose, have your partner straddle your 

legs. He/she should bend over and grip the sides 

of your pelvis, thumbs toward the sacrum, then 

spread the back of your pelvis. 

With thanks to www.yogajournal.com/poses. 

Please take care in all poses, if unsure please 

attend a class or ask for a private lesson.

Sick and tired of being in pain? 

Realigning the Atlas is like getting 

the foundations of a house laid 

correctly... when the support 

structure is in place, the rest of 

the vertebrae are aligned and fully 

functioning at their best. 

This analogy will help to understand the process: 

Fully qualified Harley Street Practitioner, visiting 

Bury St Edmunds 

“The Atlas is like the first link on a chain. If the 

first link is twisted, the rest of the chain will be 

twisted. If you undo it, the chain will straighten 

up”. 

Many years of clinical research have shown that 

the first cervical vertebra (C1) or atlas, is more or 

less malrotated from birth, in almost all humans. 

Traumas such as whiplash, slips and falls, or any 

sports injuries can push the atlas vertebra in an 

even worth position, and therefore be the cause 

of many health problems. 

“I would definitely recommend this to anyone 

who suffer back and shoulder pain, even sinus 

problems. It has been over 3 months now pain 

free and sinus unblocked” - T.B - London 

The treatment for this misalignment is called 

AtlasPROfilax® and is practised by Marie- 

Agnes Casalini, Harley Street Practitioner, 

visiting Suffolk, certified to the highest level 

AtlasPROfilax®. 

“After countless visits to an osteopath and a 

chiropractor, with only minor and temporary 

improvement to my stiff and twisted neck and 

torso, I discovered MarieAtlas and had the 

AtlasProfilax treatment. I could not have been in 

better hands as Marie-Agnes is kind, gentle and 

caring, though the treatment is uncomfortable, 

it is bearable and doesn’t take long. My pelvis 

straightened out almost immediately and 

my neck is getting better every day. Yes it’s 

expensive, but worth every penny”! - M.A 

AtlasPROfilax® is a very safe, natural, non-invasive 

method which was developed by the Swiss 

Renée-Claudius Schümperli between 1993 and 

1996, after years of study, now recommended by 

Chiropractors and Osteopaths. 

The malrotation of the atlas vertebra can be 

accurately and safely corrected by the unique 

AtlasPROfilax® method with only one application. 

The application requires two scheduled 

appointments with Marie, firstly for the treatment 

and then a follow up appointment.

Tokay Wine from 

Hungary 

Tokay is situated in the north eastern area of Hungary. 

It lies on volcanic slopes north of the Bodrog River close to the 

border of Slovenia and 60 km from Russia. 

BY ‘WINE BUFF’ FRED FISHER 

The town name is very long and complex so 

the people label it as Tokaj or Tokay. 

The Country is divided into 4 regions, the 

Danube, The Small Plain, Transdanubia and 

the Great Plain. Tokay lies in the foothills of 

the Carpathian Mountains. 

Climate and Soils... 

The climate generally follows a continental 

type with cold winters and hot summers. 

There are some benefits where the vineyards 

are close to rivers and in the autumn rains 

are early sometimes leading to an extended 

summer, allowing for a longer ripening period. 

The soils in this north eastern most part of 

the country are a mixture of clay and Volcanic 

soils. There are additions of iron and lime in 

parts. 

The Wines... 

A wine call Tokay Szamorodni, meaning 

‘As it comes’ or no selection of the grapes, 

the bunches can contain some grapes that 

have suffered from Botrytis Cinerea and are 

shrivelled up. 

48

FOOD & DRINK 

NOVEMBER NOVEMBER 2018 | ISSUE 2018 #73 | ISSUE | FOOD #73 & DRINK 

The main grape used is the Furmint, but can 

also use the Harslevelu. 

A further category called Aszu Eszencia is 6 

Puttonyi or more. 

The most famous wine is the sweet wine 

called ASZU with several grades. 

Tokay ASZUs... 

The alcohol content of these wines is typically 

over 14%.. 

Tokay Eszencia... 

The wine starts with grapes that have been 

affected by Botrytis Cinerea, a fungus which 

penetrates the skin of the grape allowing 

water to escape but retaining the juice and 

flavourings. 

The grape shrivels up to resemble raisins. 

They used to be crushed by their own 

weight and put into containers 

called Puttonyi being about 25 

kilograms weight. 

Nowadays they are simply 

crushed into a sort of paste 

like dough. 

Wine is then poured onto the 

paste and left for 24 to 48 hours, 

with occasional stirring. 

The wine is then racked off into wooden casks 

and a slow fermentation allowed. Originally 

the Aszu number was based on how many 

Puttonyi were added to a Gonc cask (136 

litres) of must. 

Most common Aszu wines are labelled 3 to 6 

Puttonyi. 

One of the most exclusive wines in the world 

but borders on being called wine as its sugar 

content is typically between 500 to 700 

grams of sugar per litre. 

This is typically added to Aszu wines but can 

be allowed to continue fermentation as at that 

sugar level the yeast struggles to produce 

alcohol. It is so sweet that it can be only 

drunk in small quantities. 

It maintains its quality and 

drinkability for 200 years or so. 

It is also said to have remarkable 

curative properties assisting 

longevity for men and women. 

Some of the finest was said to have 

been reserved for the Hapsburg Monarchy 

and called Imperial Tokay. A bottle of this sold 

in 2008 for £1,955. 

Some believe that the best value Tokay Aszu 

would be the Tokay Aszu 5 Puttonyos, which 

would be shown on the label. It is an affordable 

price and can give you extreme pleasure 

experiencing one of the most famous and 

outstanding sweet wines produced. 

Conclusions... 

Try it. It is wonderful or you can wait until another Tokay Imperial Tokay comes 

along and bid for it.

Autumn menu unveiled at Ravenwood Hall... 

Ravenwood Hall is delighted to 

announce its autumn a la carte menu 

– offering something for everyone 

who enjoys warm and heartening 

meals and big open fires. 

The renowned restaurant held a special 

launch evening in October to test the menu 

on staff and new head chef Ross Cook said 

he was delighted by the feedback from all. 

The menu which has been devised by Ross 

who said: “Our autumn and Christmas 

menus at Ravenwood include our always 

popular fish and chips and Sunday roasts – 

which customers always come back for - to 

showcasing some of the best local cuisine 

in the area such as game direct from our 

neighbours on the Rougham Estate. 

“We try and use as much local produce as 

possible, whether fruit and vegetables or 

Blythburgh pork. 

“I love classic food with lots of things 

on the plate. I want people to leave 

Ravenwood Hall happy that they have been 

well fed.” 

Ravenwood Hall is also the perfect base to 

enjoy some autumnal walks through the 

west Suffolk countryside with a short stroll 

to neighbouring Blackthorpe Barn popular 

among guests, young and old alike. 

Why not enjoy the Suffolk countryside 

and then head back to Ravenwood and 

sink into their warm surroundings for a hot 

meal or relaxing drink? 

The hotel, which boasts spacious 

parking just off the A14 and breathtaking 

surroundings, is also almost close to 

capacity for its Hollywood party nights. 

If you are still looking for the perfect place 

to celebrate Christmas and dance the night 

away, give Ravenwood a call today.

THE SWAN 

SOUTHWOLD 

By Rachel Ducker 

Southwold is one of the Suffolk 

coast’s much-loved seaside 

getaways. 

Perched on the east coast of England, this 

charming town welcomes visitors with its 

own working lighthouse, a sandy beach and 

not forgetting the ever so ‘modest’ beach 

huts, including one that’s up for grabs for an 

impressive £150,000. 

After a multimillionpound 

refurb, the 

striking Georgian 

facade of The Swan 

Hotel remains a 

highlight of the 

town. Lovingly restored by the owners of the 

Suffolk Brewery, Adnams, the hotel presides 

over Southwold’s marketplace and is now 

one of the most exciting places to stay in the 

region. 

With creative help from Shoreditch design 

studio, Project Orange, the hotel has pitched 

itself well beyond the ordinary. 

The 35 bedrooms are divided into three 

different categories: Outstanding, Excellent 

and Fabulous. 

62

FOOD FOOD FOOD & DRINK DRINK DRINK 


They showcase a combination of 

contemporary and industrial elements, 

through sumptuous velvet sofas, appealing 

geometric wallpapers and a vibrant colour 

palette. 

“We arrive at reception slightly 

early but with good reason”. 

Who needs to eat out for lunch when you can 

have your very own Adnams themed picnic 

waiting for you? The traditional hamper is full 

of fresh sandwiches, healthy salads, blueberry 

tarts, sweet and savoury scones and chocolate 

brownies… not forgetting the Adnams G&T’s in 

a can, just to wash everything down with. 

Admittedly, the weather isn’t good, but 

regardless, we stroll on down to the 

promenade under a large umbrella and take 

shelter in one of the lollipop-coloured beach 

huts. It’s quintessentially Suffolk. 

Back at the hotel, my ‘outstanding’ bedroom 

for the night is room number 15, as mentioned 

it’s a dreary day but frankly, who cares when 

you have a room like this. Views overlook the 

hustle and bustle of the market; you can even 

glimpse the North Sea. 

The walls are stylishly painted in ‘Down Pipe’ 

from Farrow & Ball, with accents of lime 

green, fuchsia pink and baby blue thrown in to 

lift the mood. 

My husband and I sit by the window watching 

the world go by, playing a game of chequers 

and sipping on a complimentary bottle of the 

multi-award winning Adnams Copperhouse 

Gin, kindly left for us to enjoy by the team.

NOVEMBER NOVEMBER 2018 | ISSUE 2018 #73 | ISSUE | FOOD #73 & DRINK 

It’s getting darker and the rain now hammers 

against the tall sash windows adorned 

in neutral linen fabrics. Despite the dark 

coloured walls it’s still warm and cosy – my 

eyes fixate to the glow from the demijohn 

glass lamps either side of the four-poster bed. 

We prepare for dinner at The 

Still Room. The restaurant is 

another world away from the 

crisp white tablecloths and 

dark red walls it once wore. 

It takes its name from 

the small-batch distillery 

situated just a few meters 

away from the hotel which 

has influenced the design 

with features such as the 

stunning copper-topped cocktail bar 

showcasing their award-winning spirits. 

The menu is a little nod to its coastal 

surroundings, from scallop starters to fresh 

fish dishes including seared Yellowfin Tuna 

or Scorched Mackerel. More informal dishes, 

like the Battered Monkfish and Triple Cooked 

Chips, are available from the Tap Room menu 

along with Adnams’ own beers and gin. 

After dinner we retire to the 

drawing room, a great area to 

sit and contemplate. We sit by 

the fireplace on impressive 

emerald green velvet sofas; 

surrounded by bold blue and 

white wallpaper. 

We head back up to room 15, 

for what I could only class as ‘the 

best night’s sleep I’d had in ages’, it 

could have been the sound of the rain on the 

64

FOOD & DRINK 


window, too much sea air, or the fact I was 

being hugged all night by a gigantic feather 

filled duvet. 

The Swan has always been beloved by 

residents and summer visitors alike. 

Would you like to know a secret? I am one 

of those locals. So surely that makes me the 

perfect critic? 

I spent most weekends of my childhood 

waltzing around the amusement arcade, 

still found at the pier, armed with a Mr Whippy, 

gambling away 2p coins my grandparents had 

been collecting for me to spend during the 

week. 

But whether you are a local or visitor, there is 

always something nostalgic about a return to 

Southwold. 

Perhaps it’s the wafts of the early morning hops 

or the freshness of the sea air, or maybe it’s just 

a timeless little town that somehow steals a 

place in your heart.

Sloe gin 

Cocktail • 

Sloe it down… 

This autumnal hedgerow cocktail has 

a blend of botanical notes from the 

gin, infused with a juniper syrup, 

which makes for a sweet-sharp 

tipple. 

Method 

1. Start by making the juniper syrup. Put 

the sugar in a small saucepan, then add 

100ml water and the juniper berries. 

Bring to the boil, then take off the heat 

and gently squash the berries in the 

liquid using a potato masher. Leave to 

steep until completely cold, then strain 

into a sterilised bottle or jar. Will keep 

in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. 

2. Put the sloe gin, lemon juice, gin and 

2 tsp of the syrup in a cocktail shaker 

with a few ice cubes. Shake well 

and strain into a tumbler filled with 

crushed ice. Serve immediately. 

Ingredients 

• 50ml sloe gin 

• 25ml lemon juice 

• 25ml gin 

• Ice (crushed and cubes) 

For the juniper syrup 

• 100g white caster sugar 

• 1 tbsp juniper berries

Keeping it Real! 

BECCLES BEER FESTIVAL RETURNS TO PUBLIC HALL 

Now in its 7 th year, the Beccles Beer 

Festival has become one of the most 

popular events in Beccles calendar and a 

celebration of local real ales, ciders and 

craft lager... 

Last year more than 1500 people visited 

the 3 day beer festival, drinking over 

5,000 pints from 26 different breweries 

and 4 cider makers, all in Norfolk and 

Suffolk. This year there will be 30 

different ales including a good selection 

of gluten-free and vegan. 

Organisers Graham Elliott and Beccles 

Lido Director, Shaun Crowley, told Bounce 

Magazine “This is the biggest beer festival 

in the region and real ale enthusiasts 

travel from all over East Anglia. It’s not 

just a celebration of local ales - it’s held 

in Beccles Public Hall to raise funds for 

Beccles Lido, and run by volunteers – 

so it also celebrates these 2 fantastic 

community run Beccles attractions!” 

From Friday-Sunday 16-18 November, the 7 th Beccles Beer 

Festival will feature some very special new ales not widely 

available on draft anywhere else, as well as festival stalwart Green 

Jack Ripper! 

As in previous years there will be live music on Friday and Saturday 

night, with local festival favorites Owl & Wolves (to be confirmed) 

on Friday with their old school blues and skiffle; and Baku & Beyond 

playing popular classic covers on Saturday night. Sunday is a more 

relaxed day and families with well behaved children are welcome. 

As usual, the Public Hall will also have a fully licensed bar selling 

wines, spirits and soft drinks for the non-ale drinkers; and there will 

be a good selection of hot and cold snacks to complement the beer, 

served by Lido volunteers. 

So make this a weekend to get over to Beccles – and why not use 

the bus or train so that you can really enjoy a selection of the tipples 

on offer? 

All funds raised will go to the Lido’s biggest ever fundraising 

project to refurbish, update and re-line the main pool – you can 

find out all about the project or make a donation at https://

Oakfired... 

JOINS UNESCO’S INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE... 

A Suffolk-based eatery has 

become only the third restaurant 

in the UK to have achieved a 

prestigious international quality 

standard and officially become 

part of what UNESCO has deemed 

“intangible cultural heritage”. 

Oakfired at The Royal Oak 

in Beccles, owned by Paul 

Williams and Paul Jackson, 

has just been awarded hardto-attain 

accreditation from 

the Associazione Vera Pizza 

Napoletana (AVPN), based in the 

southern Italian city of Naples, 

which allows it to legally claim 

to be able to offer its diners ‘real 

Neapolitan pizza.’ 

Its pizza maker, Paul Jackson, is 

not just now a ‘pizzaiolo’ (pizza 

chef), recognised as being able 

to prepare and cook pizza in the 

authentic manner required by 

the stringent AVPN, but has also 

become part of the patrimony 

of Neapolitan pizza and a 

community of pizzaioli who pass 

on the tradition of Neapolitan 

pizza-making from generation to 

generation. 

Oakfired at The Royal Oak now 

joins the two other UK restaurants 

with the AVPN accreditation – 

Casa Mia in Herne Bay, Kent and 

Cal’s Own in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. 

It becomes the only restaurant in 

its region of East Anglia that can 

allow food lovers to experience 

the type of pizza they would be 

treated to in the Italian city that 

gave birth to the dish. 

72 

Having already scooped an 

industry-leading award in 2017, 

when it won the Pizza and Pasta 

Association’s Gold Award for Best 

UK Independent Pizzeria in its 

region, the Oakfired team wish 

to go one further with a national 

award this year. 

They hope their dedication to a 

UNESCO-recognised art will enable 

them to do that and that East 

Anglia’s restaurant scene will have 

even more to shout about. 

More information is available at 

www.oakfired.co.uk and Oakfired 

can be found at 35 Ravensmere, 

Beccles, by those wanting to 

take advantage of what happens 

in Naples now being on offer in 

Suffolk.

highly individual versions of a Christmas 

classic. Enjoy the superb musicianship always

A Little Effort 

GOES A LONG WAY 

Well we’ve all heard that one 

before haven’t we? But do we use 

it to our full advantage? 

BY RUBY REED 

I think its safe to say 

we probably don’t 

exercise this daily, 

or think about the 

potential difference 

to be made... 

remembering details about someone. For example, a 

conversation you have with them. 

We all chat away but how often does it go in one ear 

and out the other. I can be very guilty of this. But, 

when I have made a conscious effort to retain a few 

points of interest- and I remember to ask how the 

trip to the vets went, it’s well received. 

Because I’ve actually 

discovered it’s a pretty good 

rule to live by. 

I have a few life hacks I like 

to stick to at the best of 

times and this one is certainly 

proving its weight. 

A simple one for this is 

Showing genuine interest in someone will 

significantly develop relationships that will aid in 

everyday life. 

That extra moment spent caring could turn out to be 

well worth your time. 

Think about it the other way around. Somebody 

asks what you did at the weekend, even though you 

spoke previously about what you were going to be

up to. Someone else asks 

how the birthday party 

you planned to go to at 

the weekend was, clearly 

remembering what you 

had told them before. 

Who do you feel more 

valued by? 

It’s nice when someone 

remembers things about 

you and shows an interest, 

it makes us want to return 

the favour. 

Talking of which - Favours 

are actually really easy. 

Painfully so. One of my 

other life rules to live by 

(or at least try to most of 

the time) happens to be 

‘It’s the little things’. 

Seriously, why not stay five more minutes 

to help out a colleague with something 

they are struggling with? Don’t be 

surprised when they return the favour. 

And hey what about bringing two 

muffins back from the shop? 

The bottom line here is that something 

very small can make an impact. Making 

someone’s day isn’t hard and then we get 

to feel happy about it too. It’s a win, win. 

One good deed a day they say!

NOVEMBER NOVEMBER 2018 | ISSUE 2018 | #73 ISSUE | #73 HISTORY 

Thetford 

Warren Lodge... 

The Prior of Our Lady’s 

Priory through Royal 

approval had the lodge 

built in the 1400s by 

the monks from the 

nearby Cluniac priory 

who looked after the 

Westwick rabbit warren 

to hunt small game and 

to protect his livelihood 

to stop poachers. 

The Prior had the area built 

big enough so that he could 

have hunting parties and he 

also employed the services 

of a warrener to protect the 

rabbit who would be sold for 

their meat and fur. Rabbits 

were introduced to the area by 

the Normans and became very 

valuable. In those days’ rabbits 

were farmed in the way that 

sheep are today. 

This rectangular building was 

built from mortared flint rubble 

and stones that were reddened 

were removed after a fire. The 

walls were over a metre thick 

and included reused fragments 

from the 12th century. At the 

time, a parapet was built for 

which the gamekeeper would 

have looked out at what would 

have been an open country. 

The porch had a single hole 

for which the warrener would 

lower a board from the floor 

above to keep the door closed 

from those not welcome. 

The warrener would have 

resided on the second floor of 

the lodge and the first floor 

would have had a storeroom 

which would have housed 

traps and nets along with racks 

to dry the skins and to hang 

salted meats. 

With many medieval buildings 

come ghost stories which 

is perfect for the Halloween 

period. Even today sightings 

of a very large ghostly white 

rabbit eyes so red it would 

blind those looking guards the 

doorway to Warren Lodge. 

A neighbouring building which 

was the Leper Hospital of St 

Margaret saw its sufferers 

kept within was in 1304 

ransacked and had silver and 

other valuables stolen before 

being set on fire. To this day a 

figure so horrific can be seen 

terrifying those it encounters 

close to Warren Lodge and 

from the first floor of the 

building. It was reported in 2011 

that a man was seen looking 

out from the second-floor 

window with horrific black 

holes in his face where his eyes 

and mouth would have been. 

After the dissolution of 

Thetford Priory, the lands 

were given to the Duke of 

Norfolk and it became a 

successful productive warren 

in the Breckland area. It’s most 

famous owner in the 19th 

century on a 99-year lease was 

the Maharajah Duleep Sing who 

was an Indian price exiled to 

Norfolk. 

As rabbits started to escape 

from the lodges and multiplied 

in the wilderness, their value 

went down, and this saw many 

warren lodges left completely 

abandoned by the 18th century. 

Today Warren Lodge has many 

of its original features including 

part of an internal staircase 

along with two fireplaces, part 

of a lower floor with sluices 

built into the wall and a game 

larder. 

Breckland still has warreners 

working in trapping rabbits and 

having them moved to help 

control the population.

Winter IS COMING... 

Adapting to your skin care needs... 

My boyfriend has left for a six-month tour 

in a cold place, so I am thinking of things to 

send him; including skin care. 

As winter is well on its way here in England, 

now is the time to focus on keeping your 

skin in great condition ready for the cold 

breezes and fretting wind burn. 

One of the best skin care 

ranges, for men, is the 

award-winning Bulldog. 

With simple packaging and 

a masculine name, men will 

feel more at ease using it. 

From moisturisers to face 

washes, serums and aftershave 

balms, they have a good assortment of 

products including original, oil control, 

sensitive and age defence. Prices are 

affordable and easy to find on the high 

street, a great buy for men. 

Lips are often the first thing to go dry, the 

best lip product I have ever used is Clarins 

Hydra Essential. Hydrating your lips whilst 

penetrating under the top layer to reveal 

soft, smooth and comfortable lips. 

Mornings can be rough on your skin, so 

why not give ‘This Works® Stress Cheeks 

Face Mask’ a go? Easy and quick to apply 

first thing in the morning, its properties 

will leave your skin hydrated, revived, 

smooth and radiant, plus with its 

aromatherapeutic blends it helps 

to relieve mental and physical 

stress and tension. 

As I always say my number one 

tip good skin care! Adapting to 

your skin care needs is so important 

all year round.

The key to flawless skin... 

Are you suffering with unusual breakouts in your 

skin? A sudden eruption of acne or eczema out of 

the blue? 

This may not be a coincidence. Our skin is the 

largest organ in the body and it’s actually pretty 

vocal. It changes colour when we’re too hot or 

cold, it can stretch and change with us and in 

some cases we may experience rashes, spots or 

skin conditions such as Rosacea, Eczema and 

Psoriasis. There are many things that influence 

the way our skin reacts, here are a few to consider 

when you next experience an unwanted breakout. 

1. Hydrate Hydrate Hydrate 

Many think it is a myth but drinking the correct 

amount of water will improve your skin tone. Being 

hydrated is a major factor in the way our bodies 

function. The body is made of around 60% water 

and keeping our levels up is incredibly important 

for both brain and organ function as well as skin 

condition. Water helps to clear the toxins from 

your body which in turn will help reduce breakouts. 

2. Sleep 

On average adults require 7-9 hours sleep per 

night, not getting enough sleep can negatively 

affect your body. It reduces the moisture levels 

in your skin and can lower your pH levels, making 

your skin’s complexion look tired and less youthful. 

Your body works hard while you sleep to boosts 

blood flow to the skin, so that you wake up with a 

healthy glow.

HAIR & BEAUTY 


3. Allergies 

7. Bed Sheets 

Many people assume that allergies are mainly associated 

with food however intolerances should also be considered 

in the things you put on your skin as the ingredients 

may still have an effect on your body. Remember that 

everything you put on your skin is absorbed, although it’s 

at a much lower level than ingesting these ingredients they 

should not be overlooked. For example, if you’re allergic to 

nuts it’s recommended you avoid skincare which includes 

nuts or nut oils. 

4. Pregnancy 

It’s important to remember that your body may be 

hypersensitive throughout your pregnancy and there are 

certain things to avoid such as essential oils as these are 

highly concentrated. Your body is experiencing many 

changes and your skin may change dramatically, don’t be 

alarmed this is normal. Even when you’re not pregnant 

women experience hormonal changes on a regular basis 

which can influence your skin’s condition, especially on 

your face. You may find that you need to adjust your 

skincare routine to suit these changes. 

I know this may seem an unusual one but 

be sure to change your bed sheets regularly 

as the sheets can harbour bacteria from 

dead skin cells and perspiration especially 

as you’re in bed for a number of hours 

everyday. 

Tips 

A great way to detox your skin for a fresh 

look is with a mask, for face or body it will 

cleanse your pores and draw out any toxins 

built up while it nourishes your skin, filling 

it with much needed nutrients. Every mask 

is different so choose one that’s right for 

your skin. 

Need advice? 

Contact us on info@funkyskincare.com and 

we will be happy to offer you advice and 

recommendations of which products are 

right for you. Written by Sarah Gare. 

5. Diet 

I don’t mean go on a diet but assess what you eat, as it 

may be that you have an intolerance to certain ingredients 

which your body struggles to process and therefore may 

cause you to experience breakouts. Begin to cut out certain 

foods and see if you notice a difference. Even eating too 

much processed foods can have an effect on your skin, get 

back to basics with a good healthy diet and your skin will 

thank you for it. Be sure not to forget alcohol too as this 

will tend to dry out your skin, the last thing you need the 

morning after! 

6. Skincare Routine 

A good skincare routine will help to keep your skin looking 

flawless. It doesn’t need to be complicated, make your 

routine suit your lifestyle. If there were two essentials I 

would recommend a cleanser or face wash and a good 

moisturiser. 

If your skin is cleansed and moisturised regularly this will 

significantly reduce breakouts, this includes removing your 

make-up every night as your skin needs to breathe.

WINTER IS ON IT’S WAY 

BY KATE LINES 

Kate’s Top Tip : Rake fallen leaves - Fallen 

leaves prevent light and air getting to plants - 

clean them up! 

Leaves are falling rapidly, and 

wind and rain are on the increase. 

Tender plants (such as bananas) 

will need protecting from frost, 

gales and freezing rains. 

Tidy up borders 

Cut down herbaceous stems and clear the tatty 

remains of annuals, but do leave a little cover 

of the perennials that fade relatively elegantly 

(sedum, astilbes and grasses for example). 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. 

The Greenhouse 

Clear out the greenhouse, wash pots and trays, clean, 

mend and oil your tools and throw away anything 

that is beyond hope or reasonable repair! 

Drain and lag... 

Save yourself untold irritation and expense by 

draining and lagging standpipes, outdoor taps, 

irrigation lines and water pumps in advance of 

sudden hard frosts. 

106

HOME & GARDEN 


Top jobs this month: 

6. Cover brassicas with netting if pigeons are 

a problem 

1. Clear up fallen leaves - especially from lawns, 

ponds and beds 

7. Insulate outdoor containers from frost - 

bubble wrap works well 

2. Raise containers onto pot feet to prevent 

waterlogging 

8. Stop winter moth damage to fruit trees 

using grease bands around the trunks 

3. Plant tulip bulbs for a spring display next year 

9. Put out bird food to encourage winter birds 

into the garden 

4. Prune roses to prevent wind-rock 

5. Plant out winter bedding 

10. Use a seasonal bonfire - where this is 

allowed - to dispose of excess debris unfit for 

composting

BATTLEFIELD LIVE! 

BY ROSS “ACTION MAN” WISHART 

Always wanted to give paintball 

a go but you’re worried that it 

might hurt nor do you want to 

get covered in paint? Well I have 

the perfect answer for you… 

BATTLEFIELD LIVE! 

Battlefield Live is an exhilarating, team-oriented 

combat game that perfectly bridges the gap 

between the sometimes intimidating paintball and 

the somewhat tame laser tag. 

Battlefield Live East Anglia have three locations: 

Ipswich (Jimmy’s Farm), Thetford (High Lodge 

Forest Centre) and Thorney near Peterborough 

each with their own unique and ideal theatre 

for warfare. You can play all year round, in all 

conditions (even snow) and all of the equipment 

(gun, overalls, face paint) is provided on site. 

Your two hour gaming session will comprise of 

approximately seven games lasting for an average 

of 10 minutes each, the fun factor ensures those two 

hours fly by in no time at all! 

You’ll also get great value for money, which is already 

a snip at just £17.50 per person, in paintball it can be 

quite frustrating to be shot early and forced to watch 

the action from the casualty bench. 

At Battlefield Live, with thanks to the Medic Box, your 

multiple headshots are mere flesh wounds, which are 

easily healed allowing to you promptly return to the 

frontline. 

The other significant difference is the gun, your 

scorpion sub machine gun has a red dot sight and it’s 

invisible infra-red light can accurately hit a target 100 

metres away. 

The 30 round clip will automatically reload within 

a few seconds once empty, therefore no fumbling 

114


SPORT 

around in a ditch with a pot a paint balls which are 

also expensive for the trigger happy amongst you. 

The gun will also let you know when you’ve 

successfully shot an opponent and also when you’ve 

been hit with some life-like sound effects. 

The games will differ in terms of their rules and goals 

from the simple shoot the other team as many times 

as possible “Team Deathmatch” to the intense “VIP 

rescue” where you must escort a member of your 

team to a designated safe zone or the fun “Aliens vs 

Zombies”. 

The variation ensures it’s not at all monotonous 

and specific objectives really add to the battlefield 

scenario and atmosphere, it’s impossible not to get 

completely taken in. 

Battlefield Live is great for all ages, from 8 to 88! 

I went to the Jimmy’s Farm site with Action Boy 

and Action Father-in-Law (retired) we all enjoyed it 

equally. 

Our session also had a birthday party of 10 year olds 

and a party of 30 year olds but on the field of battle 

age was just a number and the entire group had great 

fun in the wooded surroundings, ideal for warfare. 

Of course Action Man’s team won!

LOOME 

MUSIC 

Loome, a brand-new electronic 

pop artist inspired by the cosmos 

releases debut single, Capricorn. 

One who has been playing and 

refining his art and craft for more than 

half of his life. 

His new album LOOME, is full of 

ambient spinning reverbs and sounds 

from space, laid atop pop choruses 

and grounded lyrics. LOOME brings 

you their self-made genre, Ambient- 

Lux. 

With the launch of the debut single 

CAPRICORN, LOOME have already 

transported their listeners somewhere 

between a futuristic love affair and the 

nostalgia of childhood imagination. 

This is project headed up by Tomas 

Frankson, who is also the founder 

of TF Music School in Bury St 

Edmunds. Whatever you want to learn, 

Tomas can prepare you with a solid 

foundation of practical and theoretical 

knowledge using music of your choice.

Archie’s 

Adventures 

WHILE MUM’S AWAY... 

I haven’t been too happy this month; 

my mum has been going away a lot 

on business. 

As I have been her shadow since I was 10 weeks 

old, I can’t help but to sulk with her when she 

leaves me. She is silly too right? – uff! 

The upside is I get to spend some quality lad’s 

time with my dad. So for those ‘doggie dads’ out 

there who may need a few tips on keeping us 

entertained, here’s a few to help you along 

the way! 

Go on a walking tour of your town… 

Keep your four-legged friend in familiar 

territories; you might even enjoy the walk 

yourself. 

Go shopping together in a pet-friendly store… 

We love treats, especially ones we can rip apart! 

Take our minds of missing mum by spoiling us! 

Make a doggie playdate with a friend’s dog... 

If I am missing mum, guaranteed you will be too, 

the company will be good for us both. 

Teach your dog a new trick... 

What a great challenge for us both, plus, it will 

really impress mum when she comes home. 

Eat at a dog-friendly restaurant... 

We make great friends, this way you can eat out 

and have company too. 

Me and dad both survived, and gave mum a 

welcome home party when she returned. I can 

say with confidence we both made it into the 

good books, so take a leaf out of ours! 

Follow me on Insta @official_archies_ 

adventures. You can also keep up to date with 

my antics on Twitter @bouncearchie. 

Curl up together for an afternoon nap… 

I am sure we wont have to tell you twice about 

this one, a film, TV show or sports, we don’t care 

as long as we get to nap too! 

Go to the beach and splash in the sea… 

My favourite place in the world, the beach 

is a place to have plenty of fun, perfect 

for a distraction!
