You deserve a rest... So be served by the best



Dear Dad...
A father passing by his son’s bedroom, was astonished to see the bed was nicely made,
and that everything was picked up and tidy. Then, he saw an envelope, propped up
prominently on the pillow. It was addressed, ‘To Dad.’ With the worst premonition, he
opened the envelope and with trembling hands read the letter.
Dear Dad, It is with great regret and sorrow that I’m writing to you. I had to elope with
my new girlfriend, because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mum and you. I’ve been finding
real passion with Kazza, and she is so nice, but I knew you would not approve of her,
because of all her piercings’, tattoos, her tight Motorcycle clothes, and because she is so
much older than I am. But it’s not only the passion, Dad. She’s pregnant. Kazza said that
we will be very happy. She runs a tattoist parlour in a caravan near the docks, and has a
good regular trade of sailors. We share a dream of having many more children. Kazza has
opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn’t really hurt anyone. We’ll be growing
it for ourselves, and trading it with the other people passing through the docks for all the
cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we’ll pray that science will find a better
substitute for needles as they do make our arms sore. Don’t worry Dad, I’m 15, and I know
how to take care of myself. Someday, I’m sure we’ll be back to visit, so you can get to know
your many grandchildren.
Love, your son, Mark.
P.S. Dad, none of the above is true. I’m over at Gary’s house. I just wanted to remind you that there
are worse things in life than the School report that’s on the kitchen table. xxx

12 Travel Feature -

Sandals for Couples – something special in the Caribbean
By Mags Addison
I recently came back from a truly memorable visit to the beautiful
Caribbean island of Jamaica, as guests of the Sandals Holiday Group.
Jamaica is a beautiful island, very green, with lovely beaches, so laid
back, and of course is the land of reggae and Bob Marley, so his music is
everywhere. And so easy to get to, with regular direct flights from the UK.
It was memorable because we were fortunate enough to be staying at
the Sandals Ochi Beach Resort and experiencing first-hand what they can
offer our clients - which of course is excellent service and a lovely resort. But memorable also because
we were caught up in the impending path of Hurricane Matthew, one of the worse tropical storms to hit
the Caribbean for years. So we went from sunshine when we first arrived to very stormy weather, which
caused a lot of debris around the coastline, despite in the end it being downgraded and thankfully missing
Jamaica head on in the end.
On the Monday the island was on full alert with many businesses closed all day after the storms and
subsequent flooding hit Kingston, and this lasted to Tuesday night/Wednesday morning when it was
eventually downgraded to a tropical storm. Then the clean-up could begin.
Sandals themselves were amazing, and management team had daily briefing for guests to explain what
was happening, and giving them updates. Some guests were evacuated to the emergency rooms in the
main building as a precaution. We were being housed up in the butler suites, so this is where we would
have spent the storm, once the hotel was on lockdown, in our rooms with emergency food rations. All the
beachfront activities, and facilities were shut down. And boarding was put up outside the public areas in the
hotel. Despite that, all the Sandals staff were cheerful and helpful. You felt nothing was too much trouble.
Luckily on the Wednesday it was a safe enough to start the clean-up and open up the hotel fully again.
Unfortunately, we didn’t get to experience all the Sandals and Beaches properties on Jamaica as we were
meant too, as it wasn’t deemed safe to move around. But we were all impressed by the diligent care and
attention the management gave to the guest’s safety. So grateful thanks to them for trying to keep their
guests happy, while keeping them safe. I certainly have no hesitation in sending guests there in the future.
We managed to squeeze in visits to the Sandals Resorts in the Montego Bay area - on route to the airport.
I loved the 2 bigger resort properties here; Sandals Montego Bay, and Sandals Royal Caribbean – because
they were right on the powdery white beach. With luscious green palm trees edging along the coastline –
what more could you want!
Sandals say they are set apart from everyone else because they include
more luxury, quality and choice. I’d agree with that. They are also ideal
also for groups of couples who belong to sports clubs, like golf, diving and
fitness groups – because they offer a generous free room with six booked.
Apart from Jamaica they are in Antigua. Barbados. St Lucia. Bahamas and
Grenada. Spoilt for choice!!

“Caring for your feet in the winter”

As we enter the cold winter months, it’s
extremely important to keep ourselves warm.
To do this, we normally wear extra clothes and
gloves on our hands. But, it’s also essential we
keep our feet warm. One of the most common
problems which can occur during colder
weather are chilblains. These are small, itchy
swellings on the skin which occur as a reaction
to cold temperatures. In this article, we will
provide some information on chilblains and
how to prevent them.

Chilblains usually occur several hours after exposure to the cold as
a result of blood vessels narrowing and widening too quickly. When
this happens, blood can leak into the surrounding tissue and this is
believed to be reason for the swelling and itchiness. In extreme cases,
the skin may break and blisters may develop. It is very important to
try not to scratch the area as the skin can easily break, leading to a
possible infection.


Fortunately, chilblains are quite easy to prevent as long as you follow
these tips. The obvious thing to do to prevent chilblains is by limiting
your exposure to the cold. You can wear thick socks or long johns to
improve the circulation to the feet and try and avoid wearing tight
shoes as they can restrict the circulation. Warming your shoes on the
radiator before wearing them allows them to dry and eating at least
one hot meal a day has a fantastic warming effect across the whole
body. Finally, moisturising your feet every day stops your feet from
becoming dry and prevents the skin from cracking.

If you have any concerns about your feet or would like to know more
about preventing chilblains, then please do not hesitate to give us a
ring and make an appointment.

Jack received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully-grown with a bad
attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was a swear word.
Those that weren’t swear words were, to say the least, very rude.
Jack tried hard to change the bird’s attitude and was constantly saying polite
words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and set a good
example. Nothing worked. He yelled at the bird and the bird yelled back. He
shook the cage and the bird just got more angry and became even ruder.
Finally, in a moment of desperation, Jack put the parrot in the freezer. For a few
moments he heard the bird squawk and kick and scream. Then suddenly, there
was quiet - not a sound for half a minute. Jack was frightened that he might
have hurt the bird and quickly opened the freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped
out onto Jack’s extended arm and said: “I believe I may have off ended you with
my rude language and actions. I will endeavor at once to correct my behaviour.
I really am truly sorry and beg your forgiveness.” Jack was astonished and was
about to ask what had made such a dramatic change when the parrot continued:
“May I ask what the chicken did?”
A man wakes up one morning to fi nd a gorilla on his roof. So he looks in the
yellow pages and sure enough, there’s an ad for “Gorilla Removers”. He calls the
number, and the gorilla remover says he’ll be over in 30 minutes.
The gorilla remover arrives, and gets out of his van. He’s got a ladder, a
baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull. “What are you going to do?”
the homeowner asks. “I’m going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I’m
going to go up there and knock the gorilla off the roof with this baseball bat.
When the gorilla falls off , the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go.
The gorilla will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back
of the van.” So the guy puts the ladder up, Picks up the bat and the shotgun
and walks towards the ladder. As he gets to the base of the ladder, he hands the
shotgun to the homeowner. “What’s the shotgun for?” asks the homeowner.
“If the gorilla knocks me off the roof, shoot the damn dog!”

ASK THE AGENT...

Q: Is there any point putting my home on the market before Christmas, or should I wait
until the New Year?

A: As a general rule, there is nothing to be gained by waiting before putting your
home on the market. Assuming that you are looking to sell in order to buy somewhere
else, the swings and roundabouts principle always applies – whatever the state of the
market.

That said, Christmas is the one real exception. Quite frankly, there is no point rushing
to market too close to the start of the festive season. At that time, just about everybody
has other things on their minds than looking at properties – properties which, with
even the best will in the world, they won’t be able to move into before the New Year.

However…far from just sitting on your hands until the turkey carcass finally bites the
dust, you can always turn this enforced lull to your advantage by putting everything in
place, so that you can hit the ground running immediately the festive season is over. In
fact, this is just plain common sense – but it’s particularly true in the current climate.
However buoyant the market is, you need to take advantage of anything that could give
you even the slightest edge.

The key thing, of course, is to do your research, select your estate agent carefully and
instruct them. Most agents are going to have quite a lot of time to spare over the two
or three weeks leading up to Christmas, so your chosen firm should be perfectly able
to get everything ready for a New Year marketing blitz – from commissioning your
Energy Performance Certificate, taking good-quality photographs and preparing
marketing materials, to advising you on any little things you can do to improve the
buyer-appeal of your home.

The net result of all this is that you will be ideally placed to take the fullest possible
advantage of the increase in market activity which invariably follows the Christmas
lull. And don’t forget, the further you are down the road to selling your current home,
the stronger position you’ll be in when it comes to striking a deal on the next one.

All in all then, a little preparation now -
and you could be in line for a very happy New Year indeed!

Hi, I’m Toby a Jack Russel. 10 years ago I came to
WaggyTails Rescue as a young pup, but the kind people
here soon found me my forever home. However this was
not to be, sadly my new owners passed away and I foumd
myself in the caring arms of Waggy Tails Rescue once
again.

I’m a very sweet natured and aff ectionate boy who is used
to being the only dog in the home and not having had much contact with other
dogs, would really need to be the only pet. I love going for short walks and to
play ball in the garden, so for me that is a must. If you think you are the person
or family for me, please contact the offi ce on the number below.

For more information on Toby or any of the other animals in our care please
contact us on 01202 875000, e-mail: [email protected] or visit our
website www.waggytails.org.uk

Waggy Tails Rescue is holding some fun things in the run up to Christmas;
fi rstly we are holding a Skittles evening on the 24th November at the
Hamworthy Club and a Christmas Craft Fair on Saturday 17th December at the

1: You have a piece of paper, 10cm by 10cm. Area = 100cm^2. However, you need a
square piece of paper with an area of 50cm^2.
Using the paper you have, how is it possible to obtain the new square?
(You do not have the aid of any measuring device, ruler etc).
2: A number of children are standing in a circle. They are evenly spaced and the
7th child is directly opposite the 18th child.
How many children are there altogether?

3: In a far away land, it was known that if you drank poison, the only way to save
yourself is to drink a stronger poison, which neutralises the weaker poison. The
king that ruled the land wanted to make sure that he possessed the strongest poison
in the kingdom, in order to ensure his survival, in any situation. So the king called
the kingdom’s pharmacist and the kingdom’s chief torturer. He gave each a week
to make the strongest poison. Then, each would drink the other one’s poison, then
his own, and the one that survived will be the one that had the stronger poison.
The pharmacist went straight to work, but the torturer knew he had no chance,
for the pharmacist was much more experienced in this work, so instead, he made
up a plan to survive and make sure the pharmacist dies. On the last day the
pharmacist suddenly realised that the torturer would know he had no chance, so he
must have a plan. After a little thought, the pharmacist realised what the torturer’s
plan must be, and he concocted a counter plan, to make sure he survives and the
torturer dies. When the time came, the king summoned both of them. They drank
the poisons as planned, and the torturer died, the pharmacist survived, and the
king didn’t get what he wanted.
Can you work out what exactly happened there?

Th ere was a zebra who had lived her entire life in a zoo and was getting on in age
so the zoo keeper decided as a treat that she could spend her fi nal years in bliss on a
farm. Th e zebra was so excited, she got to see this huge space with green grass and hills
and trees and all these strange animals. She saw a big fat weird looking brown thing
and ran up to it all excited, “Hi, I’m a zebra! What are you?” “I’m a cow.” “Right, right.
What do you do?” “I make milk for the farmer.” “Cool.” Th e zebra then saw this
funny looking little white thing and ran over to it. “Hi, I’m a zebra. What are you?”
“I’m a chicken.” “Oh, right. What do you do?” “I make eggs for the farmer.”
“Right, great, see ya round.” Th en the zebra saw this very handsome beast that
looked almost exactly like her but without the stripes. She ran over to it and said,
“Hi, I’m a zebra. What are you?” “I am a Stallion,” said the stallion.
“Wow,” said the zebra. “What do you do?”
“Take off your pajamas, darling, and I’ll show you.”

An adorable little girl walked into a pet shop and asked, ‘Excuse me, do
you sell rabbits?’ ‘Yes,’ the man answered, and leaning down to her eye level
he asked, ‘Would you like a white rabbit or would you prefer to have a soft,

One of the highlights of the biology course at university was the monthly
feeding of a large snake kept in the laboratory. One time, the entire class
gathered around the cage and, in complete silence, watched as the feeding
took place. ‘I’m jealous of the snake,’ the lecturer said. ‘I never get the class’s
undivided attention like this.’
A student answered drily, ‘You would if you could swallow a mouse.’

There is no beating the taste of truly fresh
fruit and veg especially, when it’s yours!
Gardening Tips for November

Shorter days so you should work less long on the plot or garden. There are some jobs to do before winter
takes hold but spare a moment to refl ect on the pleasures of your labours.
Like, is there an alternative to Shepherd’s Pie for left over Lamb?
Try roasted Potatoes and Tomatoes with Lamb


• Top Tips for November:
• Plant Spring Bulbs in borders and pots. Cover with 2 inches of compost and
grit.
• Cut Late Summer/Autumn Raspberries to ground level.
• Plant Garlic, Onion sets, Shallots and cover with fl eece to protect from cold
and bird damage.
• Soak Sweet Pea seeds before sowing in small pots in Greenhouse or Cold Frame
• Keep lawns clear of leaves, if left they kill the grass beneath.
• Plant out new soft fruit bushes and trees in well manured soil.
• Take care of wildlife, check bonfi res for Hedgehogs and continue to feed garden birds.
• If you have grown them. Then it is time to enjoy Celeriac grated into Mashed Potatoes, Roasted
Parsnips and Purple Cabbage. You might like to add a joint of meat too.
Gardening Tips for December
As the days are so short whatever you are planning to do in the garden in December, you will not be out
for long.
Weather permitting there are some positive things you can be doing.
• Check your winter protection structures are sound.
• Check your greenhouse heater works.
• Place a net cover over your pond for protection against Herons. Ensure to keep the water from
freezing. If it does freeze you can melt a hole with a hot saucepan. If you have fi sh, never hit the ice to
break it up.
• Ensure your precious pot plants are well protected.
• If you intend growing Brassicas next season, spread a thin layer of lime over the chosen area.
• Sow any winter salad and large onion seeds now.
• Lightly dig over your borders and cover with a good layer of compost mulch for protection. The
garden birds will love you as they take the much needed grubs and insects.
• Harvest any remaining root crops or winter cabbage, keep off the lawn.
• Sit back and dream of next season.
Have yourself a very Happy Christmas.
If you live in Bournemouth and would like to grow your own fresh fruit and vegetables whilst
keeping fi t and healthy. Then come and see us at North Bournemouth Allotments in Cornelia
Road, Wallisdown. We are open every Saturday and Sunday from 10.00 to 12.00 noon and you

Project Indigo
One boy’s adventure through time and space!


Hi, I’m Tom, a local Doctor Who blogger & I write about my adventures online at
anadventurethroughtimeandspace.com
Come join me in my TARDIS. It is the hottest day of the year so
let’s cool down and take a little dip in the sea. Let’s go to Botany
Bay in Kent, fi lming location for Classic Doctor Who episode Fury
from the Deep (1968).
Fury from the Deep is a lost story from the Fifth Season of
Doctor Who, the fi rst episode that features the Sonic Screwdriver.
This time we are following the Second Doctor, Patrick Troughton,
and his companions Jamie and Victoria who are at the beach to
investigate a mysterious sea foam.
Botany Bay is the northernmost of seven bays in the Broadstairs
area of Kent and is a popular tourist attraction. The cliff s are
paper white because they are made of chalk. There’s a lot
more to chalk than you may think. It was formed during the
Cretaceous period, where the cretaceous period gets its name
- the Latin word for chalk - Creta. Chalk is made of calcium
carbonate which is why it is white. Calcium carbonate is formed by lots of coccoliths which
are plant skeletons that have been compacted over millions of years!
Botany Bay has a history of being a popular smuggling location. In the 1700s a man called
Joss Snelling led a group called the Callis Court Gang and they would bring contraband
ashore at Botany Bay. One night in 1769 they were ambushed by a Revenue Patrol and
there was a gunfi ght and many people were killed in the Battle of Botany Bay.
Luckily when I went it was more peaceful. I couldn’t see any mysterious seafoam or
smugglers. Although it was early evening the beach was very busy with everyone enjoying
the sun during the heatwave. I went on to the sand, which was very warm under my feet,
and walked along near the cliff face. I wanted to dip my feet in so I went for a walk in the
sea. It was a great way to cool down.
In the distance I could see the Thanet Off shore
Windfarm aka the TOW. This windfarm is the third
largest off shore windfarm in the world and is located
12km off Foreness Point in Margate. These wind
turbines produce electricity - enough clean energy to
power over 200,000 UK households!
I had a really fun time at Botany Bay, it was my
favourite beach in Kent. You should defi nitely see for
yourself if you get the chance.
Thank you for reading and if you would like to read
about other Doctor Who locations I have visited
please check out my blog. Goodbye!

Thank you for reading and I hope you will join me again for my next
Doctor Who adventure.

“Thank you,” the woman responded, “this may very well be
the solution.” The next day, she brought her female parrots to
the priest’s house. As he ushered her in, she saw that his two
parrots were inside their cage, holding rosary beads and praying.
Impressed, she walked over and placed her parrots in with them.
After a few minutes, the female parrots cried out in unison:
“Hey good looking! Do you want to have some fun?”
There was stunned silence. Finally, one male parrot looked over at
the other male parrot and squawked, “Put the beads away, Francis,
our prayers have been answered!”
