June 2016 History Spotlights...


Judy Garland (June 10, 1922 - June 22, 1969)
Born in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, Judy was actually named Frances Ethel
Gumm after her father (Francis “Frank” Gumm) and mother (Ethel Milne). Her
parents were former vaudeville performers who bought a theater and settled
in Grand Rapids. She was the third of three girls: Mary Jane (nicknamed Susie,
variously spelled “Suzy”) was born in 1915, and Dorothy Virginia (nicknamed
Jimmie) was born in 1917. Frances was nicknamed “Baby”, and was known as
Baby Gumm until 1934 when she changed her name to Judy.
Through a career that spanned 45 of her 47 years, Garland attained
international stardom as an actress in both musical and dramatic roles, as a
recording artist and on the concert stage.
After appearing in vaudeville with her sisters, Garland was signed to Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer as a teenager. There she made over two dozen films, including
nine with Mickey Rooney, and the film with which she would be most identified, The Wizard of Oz (1939).
Oz is certainly Judy’s best remembered film today (it has been seen by more people than any other film
ever made), but many of her films have become classics and now rank among the best movie musicals ever
made, including Meet Me in St. Louis, Easter Parade, The Harvey Girls, A Star Is Born, In the Good Old
Summertime and The Pirate.
Despite her professional triumphs, Garland battled personal problems throughout her life. Insecure about
her appearance, her feelings were compounded by film executives
who told her she was unattractive and overweight. Plied with
drugs to control her weight and increase her productivity, Garland
endured a decades-long struggle with addiction. Garland was
plagued by financial instability, often owing hundreds of thousands
of dollars in back taxes. Married five times, four of her marriages
ended in divorce. She attempted suicide on a number of occasions.
Garland died of an accidental drug overdose at the age of forty-
seven, leaving children Liza Minnelli, Lorna Luft and Joey Luft.


Jacques-Yves Cousteau (June 11, 1910 - June 25, 1997)
Jacques Cousteau was and still probably is the most famous undersea explorer in
the world, known by his dozens of books and films from the 1950s until his death
in 1997.
He served in the Navy as an officer during the mid ‘30s and revolutionized
underwater exploration when he invented the Self Contained Underwater
Breathing Apparatus (SCUBA - also known as the aqualung). Cousteau also
pioneered techniques in underwater photography and explored the oceans of the world aboard his vessel
Calypso. His filmmaking career included three Oscars, frequent television specials and the series, The
Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau (1966). In his later years Cousteau devoted himself to educating the
public on environmental issues, and working with the Cousteau Foundation, founded in 1973 to further
marine research and exploration.

One day a rather inebriated ice fi sherman drilled a hole in the ice and
peered into the hole, and as he did a loud voice said,
“There are no fi sh down there.” He walked several yards away and drilled
another hole and peered into the hole and again the voice said, “There’s
no fi sh down there.” He then walked about 20 yards away and drilled another
hole and again the voice said, “There’s no fi sh down there.”
He looked up into the sky and asked, “God, is that you?”
“No, you idiot,” the voice said, “it’s the skating rink manager.”

Travel Feature -

There’s a cruise for everyone... By Mags Addison
They say variety is the spice of life and that’s never been more important
than in today’s cruising world. From my previous pieces I’ve spoken how
cruising is so popular and one of the fastest growing areas of travel. And
so it continues in 2016 with more new ships than ever being launched, both
large and small, with new itineraries, new features, and new areas of the
world being available that you can cruise to, and perhaps most importantly,
more activities and experiences you can try on a cruise. This means, more
culture, more adventure, culinary experiences, bigger and better spas,
and more choice. It is now an era of cruising for all ages, all budgets, all interests; for family, couples, groups of
friends, singles, trying adventure holidays, relaxation, sightseeing, or learning something new. Today’s cruises sail to
most continents and oceans - anything from the Arctic to Antarctic. The questions are; where do you want to go, and
is there a cruise that will give you what you want? Think of somewhere far flung and exotic, and there is probably
a cruise line going there.
Cruise ships are still getting bigger; they are floating resorts, which surpass anything that came before. Already this
year already we have had two of Royal Caribbean’s super fleet come into Southampton to showcase the sheer size
and variety of innovations: Ovation of the Seas, and recently Harmony of the Seas. These are like floating cities,
with a multitude of shops, restaurants, attractions and activities on board.
But not everyone wants to sail on such big ships, so there are with plenty of smaller more intimate vessels who
advertise they can pull into ports where the bigger ships can’t get into, or offer perhaps more adventure cruising to
remote spots like the Galapagos Islands, or jungle trekking in the Amazon. So it’s not all about size, but the right
type of holiday for you. It’s the different experiences the world of cruising offers today that’s accelerating and is
exciting.
The boundaries are opening up – whereas for years we’ve been able to sail sedately to places like the Norwegian
Fjords, now you can sail up to the Arctic and witness the midnight sun. Or take a Northern Lights coastal voyage -
this wintertime phenomena (Aurora Borealis) is now on most people’s bucket list – and a cruise is one way to see it.
You can also take exploration voyages to South America, Greenland, Iceland and Canada.
Japan is now a very popular area to cruise. So are Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Fiji, and New Guinea. There
are many ways to see the Med with a host of family activities, plus wellness experiences like jogging, biking and
kayaking, and luxury cruises with added excursions to likes of the Monte Carlo Grand Prix to experience.
River cruising has increased tremendously, and offers itineraries not just for Europe, but the Far East, China, South
America. They offer wine themed cruises or a selection of hiking and guided biking tours. Yoga, art history, jazz
and photography are popular on themed sailings on the Star Clipper -
rigged sailing ships. The UK is popular with some cruise lines, with vessels
circumnavigating all, or parts, of our own coastal waters.
So it’s interesting times to come, with new technology, better service,
standards, and a host of new destinations to explore. Enjoy sailing!

Take care of your feet... Wearing sandals


Summer is here and we have cast off our winter shoes
and are into sandals again. Will last years sandals do
another season or do they look rather tired and worn?
Perhaps a trip to buy some new cool sandals is in order.
Choose a shoe shop that has trained staff who
understand shoe fitting to get the correct style and size
for your feet. Remember not to wear them out f the
shop, but to take them home and wear them indoors to
ensure they are comfortable and a good fit. Most stores
will allow you to exchange footwear if it has only been
worn indoors, but it is best to always check when purchasing.

The style of sandals is obviously a personal choice, but there
are features that can make a difference. If they are to be worn
for long periods then they should have a closed in back to
prevent calluses forming, and splits in the heels which can
be very painful.
The worst style for your feet is the wooden soled sandal that
only has a strap across the fore foot to keep it on, and the
wearer has to ‘claw’ their toes to keep them on.

The golden mule is the more closed in type of sandal, giving more support to your feet
which means at the end of the day you are less likely to have tired, aching feet. Sandals
provide ventilation helping to reduce perspiration and odour and make the feet feel more
comfortable.

Cotton socks, which are more absorbent than man-made materials, make all footwear
more comfortable by reducing rubbing and friction. Thank goodness wearing ‘trainer’
socks in sandals is not such a taboo anymore.

Foot Facts.
1. Each foot produces on average an egg cup full of
perspiration every day
2. 70% of foot problems are a direct result of ill fitting shoes
3. Leonardo da Vinci was absolutely spot on when he
described the foot as a masterpiece of engineering.

ASK THE EXPERT

Q....Why do agents’ fees vary so much?

A.... This question really goes to the very heart of what estate agency is all about.
Many people believe that all agents do the same job – and when you ask them what
they think that job is, they will generally say something like: “estate agents sell
houses.”

Now, on one level, one could argue that this is tantamount to saying that all doctors
and nurses do the same job, which is “to make people better.” It might be true, after a
fashion, but it’s far from being the whole story.

But in any case, I would be inclined to go a lot further and argue that estate agents
don’t really sell houses at all! Given the right asking price, and sufficient market
exposure, houses more or less sell themselves.

Nor is this just playing with words. The simple fact is that neither I, nor any other
estate agent I have ever met, can “sell” a house to someone who doesn’t want to buy
it. In exactly the same way, no estate agent can guarantee to achieve a higher price for
your home than anyone else.

OK, so what do estate agents do? I would say that we sell a service – and not just
any service, but a complex, multi-layered service, demanding a whole range of skills,
knowledge and experience, which we utilise as facilitators to shepherd the highly
complicated process of property sales through to a successful conclusion, with the
minimum of stress to all parties.

Or at least, that’s what the best agents do. In this business, as in any other, you
generally get what you pay for. The fact is, all agents do not do the same job – and that
is why fees vary. Cheap agents will always cut corners on service – because they have
to in order to survive. And, when it comes to selling your most prized asset, why risk
spoiling such a valuable ship for a ha’porth of tar?

The final point I would make in answer to your question is simply this: just imagine the
outcry, and the accusations of price-fixing that would start flying around, if all estate
agents started charging the same!

Derek J.Rolls



Independent Estate Agents & Valuers

You may have seen us, but have you met us?
Derek Rolls...
One of the area’s most known and respected Estate Agents. Selling property
locally for over 30 years. Much business is from recommendation and most
of you will have either instructed Derek or know somebody whom he has
helped to move home! Derek has a very valued and sought after opinion on
the local market having experienced and worked through all it can throw. A
charitable chap who devotes much of his spare time to organisations helping
to help others. Currently, one of the sponsors of Moordown Bowls Club, we
are very proud to support a truly local Moordown club, a great community
facility involving many local residents.

Wendy Rolls...
We couldn’t do it without Wendy’s support. Mum and self proclaimed
C.E.O! From a Banking and Finance background fulfilling the admin role
and basically runs the place! Wendy will be there for anybody if needed
especially for those with four legs and a tail. As well as handling the day to
day challenges of a successful estate agency Wendy is voluntarily involved
with local animal search concerns. Her main passion is Dorset Search
Dogs and she’s training hard to raise funds for them in the 2016 London
Marathon. Currently working towards getting Giant Schnauzer, Hattie,
operational as a search dog to find missing persons (and even lost estate
agents) throughout the area.

Martin Traves...
Lives locally and devoted to the industry for 30 years (catching up with
Derek). Worked with a corporate agent and 10 years for a local independent
company. We were thrilled to have Martin join us just over 2 years ago and
he is a vital part of our small team. He has sold more than a few thousand
properties over the years for families, companies, solicitor recommendations
and helped to build investment portfolios. There’s not much goes on he
doesn’t know about. Spare time, volunteers for Bournemouth Lifeguard
Corps, teaches rookie Lifeguards, a qualified beach Lifeguard/Rescue Boat
Crew, doesn’t need too much encouragement to get wet.
We are a very busy agency but always have time for anybody
wanting to sell or buy probably their most valuable asset.
Honest straightforward advice.

time. The boy is ecstatic, but he has never had sex before, so he
takes a trip to the chemist to get some condoms.
He tells the pharmacist it’s his fi rst time and the pharmacist helps
the boy for about an hour. He tells the boy everything there is to
know about condoms and sex.
The pharmacist then asks the boy how many condoms he’d like to
buy, a 3-pack, 10-pack, or family pack. The boy insists on the family
pack because he thinks he will be rather busy, it being his fi rst time
and all. That night, the boy shows up at the girl’s parents house and
meets his girlfriend at the door. “Oh, I’m so excited for you to meet
my parents, come on in!”
The boy goes inside and is taken to the dinner table where the girl’s
parents are seated. The boy quickly offers to say grace and bows his
head. A minute passes, and the boy is still deep in prayer, with his
head down. Another minutes passes, and still no movement from
the boy. Finally, after 5 minutes with his head down, the girl leans
over and whispers to her boyfriend, “I had no idea you were this
religious.” The boy turns, and whispers back, “I had no idea your
father was a pharmacist.”

There is no beating the taste of truly fresh
fruit and veg especially, when it’s yours!
Gardening Tips for June
June, the fi rst real summer month and how lovely the garden lawn, fl owers and vegetables should be
looking. If you have a fi sh pond then do cover it to protect from recently fl edged young Heron. Do try to
make time to enjoy the views and perfumes.
If you fancy having a go at building some hanging baskets, now is the time to do it but do remember
that as they are subject to wind and warm on all sides daily watering and weekly feeding is essential to
maintain a wonderful display of Begonias, Geraniums, Trailing Ivy and Fuchsias.
Your fi rst picking of Strawberries will be ready, to keep them going a weekly feed of a soluble
Potassium rich fertilizer.
Always be on the lookout for predators on fruit trees, Apple, Pear,
Gooseberry and Plum fl owers are prone to Saw fl y laying their eggs. The
grubs look like caterpillars but are not. Use a Pyrethrum based concentrate
and spray, if not treated the worms will grow unnoticed inside the fruit
until you harvest them.
Have a go at growing your own herbs, you can do this in a designated area
of the garden, amongst borders or even in pots. It is a great way to obtain
the real fl avours rather than the dull tones of dried herbs. Although you
can preserve them yourself when you have an abundance. Try freezing
them fi rst in a bag, when you are ready to use them you just crush them whilst frozen and use directly in
your cooking.
Gardening Tips for July
Watering, weeding, feeding and looking forward to harvesting your various crops is the order of the day
in July, but watch out!
At this and many other times of the year it seems that every insect and pest is out to ruin your hard work
and destroy your crops and fl owers. Offering a Live & Let Live attitude is noble but often counter-
productive. Spraying can harm the good guys just as well as the bad so here is a rule of thumb that might
help you identify some of the gardeners’ enemies.
As a general rule on deciding whether a non-fl ying creature is a friend or foe is: ‘Does it move quickly?’
If so it is most likely a predator and therefore a friend. ‘If it moves slowly it is probably a plant eater and
probably not what you want to encourage. Hoverfl y, Lace wings, Ladybird adults and larvae eat their
way through thousands of aphids, mites and scaly insects. Thrushes eat copious amounts of snails so a
strategically placed stone for use as an anvil will help both you and the dwindling Thrush population.
Below are drawings of a Lace wing and the evolution of a Ladybird. There are many different colours of
Ladybirds, some are not so friendly but do not kill them as you may just be hurting one of your friends.

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
Welcome to Fifteenth Century Italy - otherwise known as
Portmeirion. We are travelling back in time to visit North
Wales for the fi lming location of the Tom Baker Doctor Who
episode The Masque of Mandragora (1976).
In this classic episode, The Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane
materialise the TARDIS in an orange grove on Earth in the
15th Century, which the Doctor describes as ‘not a pleasant
time’. This story is a historical drama which was rare for
Doctor Who at that time.
Portmeirion is located in area of Wales called Gwynedd and
is near Porthmadog. It was designed and built by the architect Sir Clough Williams-Ellis in
the style of an Italian village, and it is now a tourist village. Work started in 1925 and it
took 50 years for him to build this village but it was fi nished just before he died. He built it
to show how you can develop a naturally beautiful site without ruining it.
Apart from Doctor Who, Portmeirion has served as the location for many fi lms and
television shows, and is very well known as the fi lming location for the 1960s television
show The Prisoner.

A lot of time and money was spent travelling back and forth between London and North
Wales. With travelling the shoot would take 5 or 6 days and there were no motorways. It
was hard to get horses, props, costumes and make-up vans there.
To keep Portmeirion looking like 15th Century Italy the Director, Rodney Bennett, did
very selective shooting and not many panoramic movements. He used the Italianate
backgrounds and covered up bits that didn’t look right for the period. A fake catacomb
entrance was made to link the studio scenes with Portmeirion. Clough Williams-
Ellis liked the look of the ruins Temple of Demnos and asked the BBC to leave them.
Sadly they were made of polystyrene!
Jim Sangster, a TV Historian, said ‘…..we know
its Portmeirion, but actually when you are
watching it I don’t think that distracts, I don’t
think it gets in the way at all. I’m absolutely
convinced they went to Italy as far as I’m
concerned’ which proves that Portmeirion was
the most convincing place to fi lm The Masque of
Mandragora!
Portmeirion is a calm, tranquil and cool place to
visit and is worth the travel. My favourite part
was paddling in the pool in the Piazza - I was
lucky that it was sunny that day!

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

Dorset Woodturners Association


We are an independent group of enthusiastic woodturners
from all walks of life and at various levels of ability
and experience. Our ages range from young to not so
young. Membership is open to both women and men. We
currently have a lady committee member. We have been
established since July 1992.
We have a Chairman, Treasurer, Secretary and Committee
of six. We have, and abide by a simple constitution and
we operate within adequately funded resources. We also
have public liability insurance. A modest annual sub
covers the cost.

We do not categorise members as novices, intermediates,
or experts, we regard all as woodturners. We do not expect members to have a minimum
inventory of equipment and we have a policy of no competitive turning between
members. We pride ourselves in being a friendly group of people with a common interest
in woodturning and an enthusiastic willingness to help and learn from one another.

We arrange visits to places of interest, last summer to the Axminster Tools and
Machinery Factory and we are planning a visit to a Timber Yard at Hazelbury Bryan and
the Dorset Coppice Group in May.

We hold 12 meetings a year. These are directly or indirectly related to woodturning.
These meetings are mostly held on the first Wednesday of each month. We hold a
partners evening dinner annually to which spouses, partners, friends and relatives
are invited. Several times a year on a Saturday we invite professional woodturners of
national repute to visit us for a whole day to demonstrate woodturning techniques.
Our regular meetings begin at 7.15 p.m. and finish about
9.45 p.m. These meetings are held in the Village Hall,
Braeside Road, St Leonards Ringwood BH24 2PH. The
pictures show: professional Gary Rance, demonstrating to
us and a skilled member showing his work.

Why not try us out? It is a fascinating and rewarding hobby.
You will be made very welcome.
We always start with a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit.
