Autumn Advertising
& Marketing?Testimonial:
“Allzones have now skillfully performed 3 build contracts for me over the last few years; covering a range of activities from roofing/hanging tiles/guttering to outdoor landscaping, log cabin erection, building a bridge and interior refurbishment including flooring. They are certainly very experienced, know what they’re doing, are excellent trouble shooters and won’t cut corners. Not only that: they are clean, tidy, polite and reasonably priced. They respect your home, have good attention to detail and provide a good standard of finish. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will be inviting them back next year to do the final stage of my restoration work.”

Is Vibration Training the fitness short-cut of the century?
Can’t find the time or bear the thought of battling the cold to get to the gym? Thankfully there’s an alternative.
Michael Wall of Hire Fitness
based nearby East Grinstead
brings the gym to you. Hire
Fitness is Europe’s largest
equipment provider with the
very latest and most popular
fitness models brought
straight to your home.
their most popular model,
the Ultim8 Vibration plate,
deceptively looks the
easiest to use apparently
exerting the least of your
effort. a feat of modern
engineering vibration plates
are specifically designed
machines that vibrate at
certain frequencies (normally
between �0 and �0Hz). the
user can perform a variety
of exercises on the vibrating
plate. it is claimed that a
minute of this is equal to �00
sit ups and that 20 minutes is
equivalent to a full work out.
i have also read that it can
slow the ageing process…
Most of the exercises involve
simply holding a pose on
the machine for between
�0 and 60 seconds while the
plate moves up and down
�mm with every vibration,
no jumping around, swinging
about, pulling, pushing,
etc. With conventional
training only �0-60% of the
muscle fibres are used,
vibration training uses nearly
100% which significantly
strengthens muscle mass
means a leaner, tighter
body that burns fat quicker.
the continual vibration
causes your muscles to tense
and relax up to �0 times a
second.
studies have shown that
vibration training stimulates
the muscular blood flow
and also has positive effects
on tendon tissue, bone
density, the nervous system
and hormone balance.
apparently Madonna is a
big fan of vibration fitness,
among others.
there is also a growing
acceptance within the
medical world that using
various types of vibration
machines can help with the
treatment of cerebral palsy,
osteoporosis, chronic pain
and back injuries.
Michael is happy to bring
the Ultim8 round for a
demonstration so you can
“see it in the flesh”.
Ultim8 client testimonial:
“After 12 weeks use of the
Pro Plate, I felt in much
better shape with noticeable
improvement in the toning of
my tummy, bottom and legs. I
haven’t felt so good for as long
as I can remember. Thank you
so much!!”
Julie from Thakeham, West
Sussex
In addition Michael also hires and sell treadmills, cross trainers bike and rowers.

GET FIT IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME
“Before I contacted Hire Fitness, I was not feeling good about myself, and was rather overweight. I am really busy and don’t have time to go to the gym. I hired 3 pieces of equipment for 3 months and Michael kindly threw in the
rower for free. It has been hard work but really satisfying to lose weight and to have a new outlook on life. Even my wife says that she quite fancies me, so that can’t be bad! Thank you Hire Fitness.” Jamie, Sussex
Michael Wall, established his Hire Fitness business 3 years ago & has built up a large portfolio of clients hiring & selling fitness equipment for use in the home He also supplies commercial equipment to gyms, offices, salons and studios.
People are increasingly choosing to hire in their homes for many reasons, most often for convenience & lack of time or inclination to go the gym. Parents can also look after their children whilst they exercise at home. All Hire Fitness models are of the highest quality, robust, good looking, with excellent computer functions. There is a hire- to- buy scheme where clients can try a machine prior to making a purchase. The Power Plate is his most popular model, it can burn 350 calories in 10 minutes.

MUSE Make-up
Have you Overplucked your Eyebrows?Can’t apply great make up?Lips lost their definition and thinning?Hate to be seen without your make-up on?
Which woman doesn’t want to look her best all the time?
Q: What’s the differencebetween a traditional tattooand Semi -permanent?
A-MaryAnne: A traditional tattoo is done to last, so inks are implanted deeply in lower layers of the dermis. Semi permanent Art be it make up or body, is worked only into the very upper layers of the dermis and with specially formulated pigments; it is a graze of colour and needs to be boosted annually or it will fade away.
Here are some of our customer testimonials:
“Just wanted to say how delighted I am with my eyebrows! They have settled down nicely into the perfect colour and shape. We went to Lanzarote
for a week and it was a god send to look made up by the pool with just my brows on! I feel like I have had a face lift at a fraction of the price and just look so much smarter and finished! I am a very happy customer and wish I
had done it years ago!” Caroline F
“I’m just dropping you a quick line to let you know all is well and I’m loving my new brows! You were of course completely right, my brows did need doing and the shape is amazing. The freedom of not having to wear
make-up and still looking ok is fantastic.” Heather K
“For years I struggled with drawing in my eyebrows and the time it took that I simply had to do something about it. I am so impressed with my eyebrows now that applying my make-up takes half the time and I look
great! Thank you MaryAnne.” Mimi P
Pretty permanent make-up addresses these problems giving you a beautifully groomed and defined look that can also take years off your appearance and solve your make-up problems.Plus It lasts from morning to
night, day after day, month after month!
This is a proven safe and easy way you can look better fast, without surgery. You can have more confidence and more time!

Potato, Leek & Carrot Soup
• Crush the garlic clove, trim the leek and use the white and pale green of the leek and wash thoroughly in cold water – drain.
• Heat the oil in a saucepan with a heavy base, add the garlic and leek and fry gently over a low heat until they have softened. now add vegetable stock – this can be done via your favourite vegetable stock cubes, boullion or your own – add bay leaf, cumin and then salt and pepper to taste. Bring to the boil, but keep stirring.
• add the potato and pop a lid on the saucepan and simmer for �0-�� minutes until the potato is soft when you place a fork into it.
• add the carrot, and continue simmering for another 2-� minutes. it is a good idea to re-taste
it to see if you need any more salt or pepper. take out the bay leaf. this is then ready to serve as a chunky soup.
• if you want to puree the soup - carefully (its very hot! so you can leave it to cool a little before you do this) place half of mixture in a blender, or food processor, and blend, pour into a clean saucepan, repeat process with the other half and put into rest of blended soup. add the milk and bring to the boil – taste again and add seasoning if required, then stir in the cream or crème freche before serving.
• Delicious with some granary or sunflower bread.
Enjoy – Kate & rick
so here comes the cold weather, which for me means starting to add soup to the weekly menu. soup is a great way to use up vegetables in the fridge, or to make a nutritional meal. it is also an easy way of bringing in the seasonal vegetables that are available in abundance from our local farms and producers. as the leaves begin to drop from the trees, it is a great feeling to place a large bowl of soup on the table with chunky pieces of bread , feel warm and ready to take on the long evening to come.
this soup can be served in two ways – either as a quick chunky soup, or pureed to make a creamed soup. For me soup is always better the next day, as the spices and herbs have a chance to really infuse, so maybe make it one day, leave it in the fridge and serve the next day.

Family Crest - Seal RingsSeal Rings have been worn by men of distinction for centuries. The signet ring was originally a Seal Ring - the “mark” of a gen-tleman. The name “Signet” came from the Latin word signator,the person who puts his seal onto a document.
The time taken on each ring and the lack of skilled craftsmenmeans only a few people have the opportunity to own a seal ring.
To purchase a seal signet, with a crest attributed to your family name, creates for you and your family an heirloom of great inter-est and beauty.
Many crest rings are sold as Graduation or 21st Birthday presentsand to couples for the gentleman’s wedding ring. Available in Goldor Platinum, plain orstone set, most rings arein ladies and gentle-man sizes. At GeorgeKnight Jewellers in EastGrinstead, you can viewyour heraldic familycrest along with a rangeof signet rings.
A man who is not proud of his ancestry will never leave afterhim anything for which his posterity may be proud of him.

VegetablesContinue preparing beds for the spring. Leave ground roughly dug as this allows the winter frosts to help break down the soil clods.
Bulbstulip bulbs may still be planted up until about the middle of the month. Lift tender bulbs and store in a cool, dry, dark place after first frosts.
Shrubs and Herbaceousthis is a good time to transplant trees and shrubs. When lifting established plants get as much of the root ball as possible and get them planted back into the prepared ground as soon as possible to prevent drying out. Large trees and shrubs will require staking to avoid them moving during
winter storms. Continue to lift, divide and plant herbaceous. Prune evergreens to shape.
LawnsGive your lawn a good raking to lift away accumulations of debris. Keep leaves raked from the lawn. they should be composted.
Rosesrose foliage can harbour insects and diseases, both on the shrub and on the ground. Pull off any rose leaves that are still hanging on, and rake up fallen leaves. Mulch around base of established roses with well rotted manure.

East Grinstead’s Community Play, ‘Matters of Chance’, written and directed by Jon Oram of Claque Theatre Company, will be performed over twelve nights from 29th November - 11th December 2010 at Sackville School.
Celebrating the lives, culture and history of East Grinstead, the play examines how small decisions can lead to us being caught up in huge events; events that have profound effects on our lives. all the characters in the play are based on real people, and their stories are taken from over one hundred interviews recorded during the ‘talk of the town’ project. Jon sifted through these to write the final play, during which he recognized common threads running throughout: memories of the war, the bombing of the Whitehall Cinema in �9��, and Mcindoe’s ‘Guinea Pigs’. thus the play is set during the war years �9�9-��.
it includes a cast of 90 local people from East Grinstead and the surrounding areas, but other volunteers are participating as musicians, stage managers, technicians, set builders, costume fitters, etc. Local schools, clubs, associations and
business groups will also be involved in the project.
noah nicholson, head of music at sackville school, is in charge of the music, which will comprise of traditional �9�0s Hollywood songs. Jon wrote the lyrics to four of the original songs, with the music composed by sackville students.
directorial assistant, allison Pattison, said, “everyone who walked through the door got a part. no one is turned away, and we are still welcoming people who want to volunteer to work with the professional designers, making props and costumes.”
the whole point of a community play is to get everyone involved, after which a legacy is left and people tend to stay together afterwards. it’s a very organic process, and encourages people to learn new skills and to pass these on to the different generations within the community and who knows what doors our younger members will be inspired to open thereafter.
as part of the community project, local people will be able to drop in to the design workshop anytime at 2�a Birches industrial Estate, East Grinstead, to see props
and costumes being made, as well as to have a go themselves.
Tickets are £12 for adults or £8 for children and can be bought from former Wickenden’s sweet shop, High Street. For more information visit the Community Play’s website on www.egplay.org.uk

Dick Whittington
is this year’s chosen Chequer
Mead pantomime and on taking a closer look the real life Dick Whittington’s legacy actually lives on in this area…
‘dick Whittington’ is the only pantomime character to be based on a real person, richard Whittington, the son of an alderman who was actually born in Gloucestershire sometime in the mid ��th century.
Contrary to popular belief, dick Whittington was not a poor, ill-treated orphan who managed against all the odds to work his way up to Lord Mayor. Coming from a wealthy family, he was sent to London to train as a merchant and became very successful, dealing in luxurious silks and velvets from the orient, some of which would have been transported in a cargo boat, also known as a ‘cat’. Whether this was the inspiration for his fabulous feline friend we can’t be sure, but he did become Lord Mayor of London three times and he did marry alice Fitzwarren.
He made several huge loans to the King and in true philanthropic
style also financed major public projects such as drainage systems, almshouses and hospitals including at Highgate, where legend has it he first heard the sound of bow bells calling him back to the City.
amazingly, sir richard Whittington’s charitable bequests are still benefiting people today. the almshouses were entrusted to the management of the Mercers Company who still administers them. originally they were built on College Hill in the City of London. in the �9th century they were moved to Highgate and then in �966, the almhouses were rebuilt in Felbridge, where Whittington College provides �6 houses and apartments for elderly ladies and married couples.
the charitable bequest has grown so much over the centuries that in �822 the work of the trust was extended to cover paying an allowance to people on very low incomes. The beneficiaries of these out-pensions, as they are known, now number �00.
Even if the legend of dick Whittington is a mixture of fact & fiction, perhaps the truth is even more amazing. richard Whittington survived
as a prominent City merchant through turbulent times. Even more astounding, the charitable trust he created nearly 600 years ago is still helping people today.
it was said that the greatest sadness of his life was not having any children so he would be delighted that today so many of them are having such a good time following his adventures on the stage.
Dick Whittington and His Amazing Cat’ set off on their magical trip to Olde London Town and Morocco from 18th to 30th December at Chequer Mead, East Grinstead so don’t miss your chance to cheer the goodies and boo the baddies by calling the Box Office on 01342 302000.

Carmen’s Story
As with all community plays it’s the volunteers that make it happen...take fifteen year old Carmen Langridge who is currently in year eleven at Sackville Community College.
Carmen has been coming along to the Workshop space since the beginning of september. “i enjoy sewing and i like to volunteer and all the things we are making are fun. My favourite item i’ve made so far is ‘Jim’! a traditional teddy bear”, Carmen tells us.
Carmen’s enthusiasm to be in the play was evident the moment she stepped into the Workshop where she auditioned for a part in the play. she explains how her character shelia roberts witnessed the Whitehall bombing, in which her sister (isabella) died while her character was working at the Post Office across the road from the cinema . “it’s upsetting and sad knowing that my character saw what actually happened. Knowing that her younger sister was inside the cinema.”
For Carmen the East Grinstead Community play has opened up a new door way of meeting different people...“i’ve met lots of nice new people and made some new friends”. Carmen goes on to explain that alice Killick who plays isabella goes to the Michael Hall school with a mutual friend of hers and they have other common interests. “i wouldn’t have met Alice if it weren’t for the play”.
this is just one of the many examples of what the community play can give back to the community.
’Matters of Chance’ ( running from Monday 29th november until saturday ��th december) not only takes place in the play but in real life too!
Carmen will be making her own costume with the support of the Design Team, but they need yOUR help! Please do come along and get in contact with either Laura, vicky, April or Sarah on 07757 553 115
