very own copper still by evening. Why wouldn’t you?

Shona
McGarty
The EastEnders actress, 28, has starred in the soap for
over 11 years and lives in London Words by Rianne Ison
Not a lot of people know this but I’m very good
at… singing. It’s not really a secret as I’ve sung
a lot in public and on television. But I really love it.
My best friend is... Camilla, my sister. We’re only
10 months apart so have a really good relationship.
We’re really close, we’ve never argued.
My nickname is... Back in the day it was Shoniqua.
I used to love the band N-Dubz, so it comes
from that. My nickname at work is Shinty McGinty
– everyone seems to call me it. For some reason,
it’s just stuck.
The bravest thing I’ve ever done is… I don’t think
it’s happened yet. Although standing up singing in
front of thousands of people was brave. I’ve sung
live on Children In Need. It scared the life out of me.
I was so nervous. I’ve also sung at the Royal Albert
Hall and at the Henley Festival with Gregory Porter
and Laura Mvula, which was amazing.
My favourite TV show is... RuPaul’s Drag Race.
I love how confident everyone is. I like watching the
journey they go on emotionally. I also love the outfits,
the hair, make-up and the whole drama of the show.
My perfect evening is... Currently, it would be
watching Next In Fashion with Alexa Chung and Tan
France and eating a cheeseboard.
I’d like to say sorry to... my mum and dad for
being such a stroppy teenager. I went through
a bit of a phase, like everyone does.
My first kiss was... messy and embarrassing.
I think I was around 14. I had my eyes open as
I didn’t know it was a thing to close them. Everyone
was laughing at me.
22
The one thing I’d change about myself is…
I always doubt myself. I can sometimes pick
out bad things about myself, but I think that’s
something everyone does.
The best thing my parents taught me was... to
stand up for yourself and for what is the right thing
to do. It’s something that I really believe in. Don’t
be a people-pleaser and go along with things.
The last time I cried was... when my grandma died.
We were very close.
The first record I ever bought was... Kylie
Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head single.
I was a massive fan of hers when I was younger
and still am. I’ve never seen her live, but would
love to one day. I think she’s amazing. She also
doesn’t age.
It’s not good for my image but I like... chilling
in a tracksuit with no make-up on. It helps me
switch off from work as Whitney wears a lot
of make-up. So when I get home I like not
to wear any. It makes me feel very free.
My greatest weakness is… a cup of tea.
I don’t even have a number for how many I drink
a day, but it’s a lot. Whether you’re happy, sad,
stressed – no matter what it is – a cup of tea
makes everything better.
If I could pass any law I would... make it
compulsory for people to bring their dogs to
GOFFPHOTO.COM
work. It would be nice for anyone who’s having
a stressful day to be able to cuddle a dog, even
if it’s not their own.
I drive... a white car. I bought it because at the
S MAGAZINE ★ 16 FEBRUARY 2020
 time I had just dyed my hair red, and the car has red
seats, so I had to get it.
The shop I can’t walk past is... a charity shop
because I like having a rummage through the
rails. You can find some real gems and it’s all
for a good cause.
The most expensive thing I’ve ever splashed out
on is... my house. I think getting on the property
ladder is something most people want to do, so
I feel very lucky.
The actress who would play me in a film would
be… I’m completely obsessed with Angelina Jolie
so I would have to say her. But if I had to ask her
I think I would need to steady myself first as I would
be so nervous, it would be really awkward.
The worst job I’ve ever had is… I’ve been really
lucky as I joined EastEnders when I was 16 and
am still here, so I don’t really have a worst job.
Although, if we’re talking about household jobs,
I’d say picking up dog poo from the garden.

“Stand up for
yourself and do the
right thing… Don’t be
a people-pleaser”
My perfect Sunday is... making a roast dinner in my
pyjamas after a long dog walk and then relaxing.
My favourite place in Britain is... Cornwall.
I love the sea air. I went there every year when
I was a little girl with my mum, dad and sister.
We stayed on a farm where we had to milk the
goats every morning to feed the babies. I’d love
to go back one day.
My last holiday was… in Cyprus. It was about a
year ago and it was just lovely to go somewhere
warm and switch off from work.
I’m currently reading... a lot of scripts. I’ve been
really busy at work lately, which is great, but it
means I spend a lot of time reading. And when
I get home and I’ve learned my lines, I’m not always
in the mood to read anything else.
The best day of my life was... when I got my role on
EastEnders. I was studying at college. I went home
that night, got the phone call and they said, “The job
is yours if you want it.” I couldn’t believe it.
If I had half an hour left on Earth I would... spend
about 28 minutes stressing about what I was going
to do, then FaceTime my family, speak to them, and
tell them I’ve wasted 28 minutes stressing. ● S

 Frankie’s
fightbackEx-Saturdays singer Frankie Bridge opens up about
her battle with mental health and the people who
pulled her back from breaking point Words by Kirsten Jones
A
t the height of her career in The
Saturdays, singer Frankie Bridge sold
out arenas around the world with her
bandmates Mollie King, Una Healy,
Vanessa White and Rochelle Humes.
The girl band scored 12 Top 10 hits, including
Higher, Ego, Up and their number one, What
About Us. It was a dream
come true for the ex-S Club
Juniors singer, but her
friends, family and fans had

“You spend so long trying

she reflects. “It’s not to say
I hated every second I was in The Saturdays.
I really loved it and there were some amazing
moments, but this horrible illness took over.
Everyone thought I was happy and it just goes
to show, you never know.”
It’s mid January when we chat to Frankie, who
has just celebrated her 31st birthday at home
with her husband, former Chelsea footballer
24
Wayne, 39, and their two sons, Parker and
Carter, who helped blow out the candles on her
cake. The star doesn’t hide her mental health
issues any more. Instead, she’s put her whole
life on paper in a bid to enable others to speak
out and ask for help.
In her new book, Open, she explores her own
mental health from childhood
to adolescence and talks about
joining bands, finding fame and
love and having children. It’s
a bare-all book that reveals her
highs and lows and is filled
with expert comments by
Frankie’s psychologist and
psychiatrist about symptoms
and treatments and the
effects they have on the singer
and the people she loves.
Their comments, she says,
take away the taboo and
explain a scary subject in
a way that makes perfect sense.
“My book arrived at home the other day and
I can’t believe I can touch it,” she says. “It was
my manager’s idea at first. She said I needed
to open up the conversation and I thought,
‘Actually, people need to hear this.’
“It’s a scary thing to do. I realise that people
I don’t know are going to read these intimate
things about me. It’s weird but also quite freeing.

 In the beginning people would wonder what
I had to be sad about – and I get why
people feel that way. God, I feel it, too.
That’s part of the guilt. I have this lovely
life but that’s the point. Anyone can have
a mental illness. Anyone.”
A Strictly Come Dancing runner-up, TV
presenter and aspiring actress, Frankie
has struggled with a range of mental
health issues since childhood, freely listing
her battle with anxiety and panic attacks,
low mood, guilt and suicidal thoughts.
“I was born an anxious person,” she
reveals. “You rely on your family when
you’re young. Your mum takes you to
the doctor, you take their word for things
and get on with it. I’m sad because as
a child there were things I should have
been able to enjoy and I didn’t because
I was worrying about things going wrong
and people getting hurt. I look at my
kids and I hope they’re not like that.”
As Frankie grew up, she started to have
trouble breathing, first at night and then
during the day. It frightened her, which
made it worse, but she didn’t realise she
shouldn’t feel that way. “There was never
a point when I realised something wasn’t
right. I thought it was just something scary
that happened to me. I chilled out a bit
when I was in S Club Juniors, but it started
coming back.”
Frankie became friends with Rochelle
Humes in S Club Juniors and the pair
stepped up together in The Saturdays.
Rochelle and the girls had no idea Frankie

was hiding her mental illness. In the book she
describes her desperation, talking to therapists
and trying a cocktail of drugs to bring her back
from breaking point. She was constantly crying
and things eventually got to a point where she
couldn’t pretend any longer.
“It was a big shock for the girls when I first
went into hospital,” she reveals. “They had to
pick up the pieces and carry on as a four, deal
with people asking questions and wonder if
their band member was going to come back.
Luckily, they all stuck it out and were so
supportive of me. Even when I came out of
hospital it was a shock for them to see me
have a panic attack, but we just got on with it.
“I didn’t tell my family about my stay in
hospital,” Frankie adds. “There was no need
to be ashamed but it meant I had to admit that
I was hiding something for so long. How was
I so unhappy yet living the dream? I don’t feel
like that any more.”
Frankie says her illness also tested her
relationship with Wayne,
who was struggling
to care for her and felt
helpless watching her “The kids’ needs

her for an easier life, but
he didn’t. The singer adds

the other side,” she
says. “It could have gone
either way when we had kids, but they gave me
a purpose. Their needs force me to get out of
bed and they show me that I can’t control
everything in life. It sounds cheesy but they’ve
taught me to find joy in the smallest things.”
Frankie’s friends and family have read the
book and it’s been emotional, especially for her
mum, who was worried about what she was
going to read. But there are no secrets, says
Frankie, and everybody is so proud and excited
about the next chapter in her life.
“Wayne hasn’t finished it yet because he’s
never read a book the whole way through,”
she laughs. “He’ll probably wait for the audio
version. I’m honest with the people I love.
If I tell someone, have a cry or speak to Wayne
I know I’ll feel better. It’s the little things – and
it’s nice to know that someone else is there.”
Frankie is one of a host of celebrities

became an ambassador for charity Mind in
2016 and last year released a podcast, Open
Mind (which returns this month), with guests
including Jamie Laing from Made In Chelsea,
fellow Saturdays singer Mollie King and Great
British Bake Off winner Candice Brown, who
talked about her five-year battle with depression.
“People in the public eye are perceived to
have it all. Just because someone’s life looks
amazing, that doesn’t mean it is,” Frankie
insists. “Candice and I met on the CoppaFeel!
charity trek in India. We were so honest with
each other. She trusted me and I feel proud
to have given her space to open up.”
Frankie is a completely different person now.
Her depression is still there, but she doesn’t
let it rule her life. Instead, she keeps on top
of her medication, has therapy when she feels
she needs it and puts herself and her family
first. She still worries about her children, but
now has the tools to stop potential troubles
in their tracks. “My boys are only four and six
and I’m very mindful of
the things they’re scared
of. I check in with them
and make them feel
better about their fears.
I guess I’m a bit more
paranoid. I’m always
wondering if one of
them has got my brain.”
Frankie has now
caught the writing bug
and been inspired
to travel with her book,
write more about mental
health and take on a new
challenge to prove to
herself – and her brain
– that she can do
anything. The singer is
one of eight celebrities
taking part in this year’s big Sport Relief
challenge and documentary and she’s keen
to step into musical theatre, too, in something
that no one would expect.
“I have definitely grown up and I understand
myself a little bit more,” she confesses. “I’m
not on edge all the time, but I still have my
days. I’ve accepted that I’m not going to be
fixed. This is who I am and I need to get on
with it, in the best possible way that I can.
“I hope my book encourages people to feel
more normal and speak to at least one person
about how they’re feeling. I want them to have
a sense of hope that there is more to life than
whatever their mental health is like right now.” ● S

became CEO in 2011 and married the club’s
chairman John Radford in 2012. She was also

them play. Women’s football was banned for
50 years and it was a dirty thing to do. It will
take time, but it will get a new lease of life.”
Before stepping up as CEO, Carolyn studied
politics and law and landed a legal job with
fashion brand Gucci. She now works as
a director at John’s firm One Call Insurance,
is a lawyer at OCL Solicitors and, until recently,
ran a beauty salon in Doncaster.
“The beauty salon is no more,” she sighs.
“It was very hard to manage and I’m focused
on my family right now. My mum was a PE
teacher so I spent my childhood standing
around hockey and netball pitches in the
winter. I’ve always been immersed in sport
but I never thought I’d be running a football
club when I grew up.”
While Carolyn says she prefers the gym
to a kickabout, her three sons, Hugo, Rupert
and Albert – who she shares with husband
John – are keen to learn and she has high
hopes for them all.
“One of them is really into tennis. It’d be
nice if he was the next Andy Murray. Hopefully,
we’ll have the next Lewis Hamilton, too, and an
actor who will take me to the Oscars. Perfect,”
she laughs. “We used to have nannies and
I felt like I was in the way all the time. Now
I get them up and dressed for school and
spritz them with some Chanel No.5 before
they leave the house. I like to think that if
they smell nice, the teacher will give them
a bit more attention.”
From dawn till dusk, Carolyn and
John are in each other’s pockets.
They open post and meet the
manager together, plan for big
games and pick up their director
roles at John’s insurance firm. It’s
non-stop but you get used to it,
she says. “I love the adrenaline
and when there’s nothing to do,
I’m bored,” she admits. “John and
I live and work together, we get on
and it works so well. We’re like the
Richard and Judy of football.”
It’s the thrill of winning that
keeps Carolyn at the top of
her game. It’s a roller coaster
of emotions as you dream of
a promotion, she says, and that’s
what makes football so special.
She wants more women to stop
hiding and step up to achieve their
goals, no matter what they are.
“I want women to have
confidence, drive and enthusiasm.
If things knock you down – as they
do – keep going. Life is so difficult. It’s not an
Instagram picture-perfect world, is it? Just keep
going and be the best you can be.” ● S

Discover a fresh approach
to life on a naturopathic
retreat in southwest India
urritos, melted cheese, fried eggs,
B bread… I’m running through
a mental list of my favourite food
and trying – really trying – to test
my remarkable discovery: nope,
I’m just not hungry. Day four of a raw-food diet
with intermittent fasting (no eating between
10am and 6pm) and I hadn’t heard my
stomach rumble once.
Exceptional though this raw food revelation
is, it isn’t the only thing that makes Prakriti
Shakti – meaning the Power of Mother Nature
in Sanskrit – so special.
It’s a retreat built discreetly into the hills of
Panchalimedu, about three hours from Kochi
city, in southwest India. Guests come for seven
to 21 days and after a consultation with the
naturopathic doctor, each is given a daily
programme of treatments from acupuncture
to spinal baths, revitalising massages and
jala neti (clearing your nose with water), plus
morning and evening yoga classes.
They are all delivered with a bounty of
kindness, an attitude which runs through
everything at Prakriti Shakti. It’s part of CGH
Earth, a travel group dedicated to responsible
tourism – for example, the toiletries are 100
per cent natural and the organisation works
closely with the local communities.
All responsibilities are removed from you
upon arrival. Guests don’t even wear their own
clothes, but instead don comfortable, loose
cotton trousers and top. Therapists melt knotty
shoulders with their hands (or I think it was
hands – I was generally too zoned out to be
Prakriti Shakti Clinic of Natural Medicine
Right: The food is raw and organic
A seven-day stay at Prakriti Shakti starts at about £1,428pp (excluding flights). The clinic takes a naturopathic approach to a range of issues from

Raw power
sure what was going on) but also with their
gentle, soft-spoken ways. The food is organic,
around half of it grown on site.
The ethos of Prakriti Shakti is to step away
from busy life and, as the board in the eating
area says, “Embrace the silence within you.” So
we put down our phones and gazed out past the
infinity pool carved into the mountains, reveries
interrupted only by dragonflies, black crows
sipping at the water and butterflies of all hues.
First, we grounded ourselves, then came
the science. As well as at least three different
treatments every day, the doctors gave talks on
the naturopathic theories that underpin them.
At 6.20am, as the sun rises, you perform
the practice of panchamahabhutopasana. This
introduces the five elements of life – air, water,
space, fire and earth – as we breathed (air),
walked barefoot (earth), went in the pool (water),
moved (space) and meditated (fire). Getting in
touch with the five elements runs through all the
treatments. So the spinal bath represents water,
while daily sunbathing with eye and abdominal
mudpacks symbolises earth.
At its heart, the naturopathy practised here
is about treatment without medicine.
Rooms are furnished
with natural materials
At daily meetings with the doctor, we were
encouraged to talk about any physical issues
or emotional experiences to help them tailor
the therapies.
So what did I learn that I could bring back
to my usual life?
Firstly, raw food can be very filling. The
advice when returning to the real world is to
aim to eat a diet of 30 per cent raw food and
make it colourful and varied. Three weeks later,
I’m still managing that.
It also struck home that a few little tweaks
can help ease the mental strain – less
checking of the mobile phone, more checking
in with my mood, more water, fewer cuppas,
more fresh air, less sitting at my desk.
At the end of this wonderful experience, Dr
Cijith Sreedhar had these rather surprising
departing words, “I tell my patients not to
come back.” It’s not what you think. He hopes
that all guests leave refreshed but, more
importantly, knowing how to stay that way
in the longer term.
But I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint Dr
Sreedhar. I will be back. ●S

 Is salt slowly
kiling you?
Sugar isn’t the only crystalline white substance we should shun at mealtimes.
Salt is an even bigger threat to health, says science writer Graham Lawson
alt is a routine part of most diets,
S casually added to food even when
it’s already laden with the stuff.
And yet this mineral that we so
enthusiastically grind and sprinkle
on to food is killing us. Not immediately, but
it will get you in the end. The World Health
Organisation (WHO) says we’re in the grip of
a “crisis” of non-infectious diseases. Salt is
one of the main culprits because of its effect
on blood pressure and hence cardiovascular
diseases such as heart attacks and strokes.
Only one substance gives the WHO greater
cause for concern, and that is tobacco.
What is salt?
Salt is a vital nutrient. Its constituent ions,
sodium and chloride, help maintain fluid
balance; sodium is one of the ions nerve
cells use to create electrical impulses.
The typical foods available to our hunter-
gatherer ancestors would have been low in
salt, so we have evolved an exquisite system
for detecting it in our diet. One of our five
types of taste bud is dedicated exclusively to
salt, the only one tuned to a single chemical.
Unlike energy, our bodies cannot readily store
salt and so we are experts at hanging on
to it, largely through a recycling unit in the
kidneys. It is possible to survive perfectly
well on very little salt.
Until recently, most humans ate no salt
other than what was naturally in their food,
amounting to less than half a gram a day.
Pure salt entered the human diet only
around 5,000 years ago when the Chinese
32
discovered it could be used to preserve food.
Salt has since played a leading role in human
history. It assisted the transition to settled
communities and became one of the world’s
most valued commodities.
The rising tide
Although we no longer have to rely on salt
to keep food from spoiling, our appetite
for it is undiminished. Most people eat much
more salt than they need. While US dietary
guidelines set an adequate intake of 3.75g
a day, the average Westerner eats about 8g;
in some parts of Asia, 12g is the norm.
Despite a widespread belief that we have
an innate taste for salt, our liking appears
to be learned. People living in traditional
societies, such as the highlanders of Papua
New Guinea, have no access to pure salt and
find it repulsive, but if they move to the city
they quickly get a taste for it. And like an
addictive drug, the more you eat the more
you crave, as salt receptors on the tongue
become desensitised by overuse.
It doesn’t help that processed food is full
of salt. Around three-quarters of the salt we
eat is added to food before it even reaches
our plates, not only in the obvious culprits
like crisps and cured meat but also
concealed in breakfast cereal, biscuits and
crackers, cheese, yoghurts, cake, soup and
sauces. Even bread is surprisingly salty.
There is a multitude of reasons why
processed food is so laden with salt. As
well as prolonging shelf life, it makes cheap
ingredients taste better and masks the bitter
flavours that often result from the industrial
cooking processes. It can be injected into
meat to make it hold more water, thus
allowing water to be sold for the price of
meat. It improves the appearance, texture
and even the smell of the final products. And
it makes you thirsty, boosting sales of drinks.
This effortless consumption of salt
horrifies doctors. Our kidneys can excrete
some excess salt but, even so, people who
consistently eat more than about half a gram
a day – that is, practically all of us – build up
excess sodium. To keep fluid concentrations
stable, our bodies retain extra water. As
a result, we’re all carrying round up to a litre
and a half of fluid, weighing one and a half
kilograms more than we would if we were on
our natural salt intake.
An inevitable consequence of this excess
fluid is a rise in blood pressure – one of the
main risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
Even small increases raise your risk of
having a stroke, and everything that lowers
blood pressure reduces it. For this reason,
salt reduction has become one of the most
important public health targets in the world.
Dietary guidelines vary, but generally
recommend eating no more than 5-6g
of salt a day. And these levels are far
from ideal – they are merely what is
considered realistic in a world awash
with salt. Try calculating your own salt
intake and you’ll soon learn how hard
it is to meet even this modest target.
Sodium may not be the whole story,
however. Potassium blunts the blood
pressure effects of sodium, and the effect
S MAGAZINE ★ 16 FEBRUARY 2020
 HEALTH

is mediated by the ratio of potassium to

sodium rather than the absolute amounts.
Modern diets are not only laden with
sodium but also depleted in potassium,
so an effective way to boost the health
benefits of salt reduction is to switch
to high-potassium table salt or eat more
high-potassium foods such as bananas,
oranges and black beans. However, if
you have kidney disease, heart disease
or diabetes, seek medical advice as an
increase in potassium may be harmful.

A spicy solution
One way to cut down on salt is to use spices
as a substitute. Spices have been added to
national dietary guidelines in the US and
Australia because adding them to food
makes it easier to cut down on salt.
Spices may even bring health benefits
of their own. They are often rich in
polyphenols, a group of plant compounds
thought to have antioxidant properties,
which has led to them being touted as
a kind of superfood. The best-known
super-spice is turmeric. Its magic ingredient
is curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory
properties. More than 120 trials have
tested its effectiveness against conditions
from Alzheimer’s disease to erectile
dysfunction, and each month dozens
of new scientific papers are published
on its effects.
But despite much scientific scrutiny, the
verdict is far from clear. One big red flag
is that however much turmeric you eat,
“Like an curcumin does not easily get into the
bloodstream. The effects may be a placebo.

He wants a party pad, I want a cosy cottage
My fiancé and I are looking to buy
our first home together. We’re
getting married in 2021 and have
a decent budget. It worries me,
however, that he’s intent on finding
a “party pad” where his friends
can hang out. He imagines us
throwing suppers and cocktail
tastings every weekend. I’m
not sure about this. While he’s

My thankless sister
has some nerve
The more I do for my sister, the
less grateful she is. Losing her
job and husband in 2018 hit her
hard and I’ve been picking up her
shopping and helping with the
paperwork. But I’m constantly
snapped at. She prefers me to
drive 10 miles to the “better”
supermarket in the next town and
I’m told I’m unreliable and lazy.
How is that fair when I thought
I was doing a good thing?
You need to step back for the

Sex matters
My ex-wife and I are both
single again after various
failed relationships. We keep
bumping into each other at
social events and our sexual
chemistry is off the scale –
but she refuses to have sex
with me. I now realise she’s
the love of my life and know
she has feelings for me. I
suspect she’s enjoying flirting
and the thrill of feeling like a
giddy teenager again, but her

is torture. How do I get her to

I’m boring or trying to tame him.
You have to speak up before
another step is taken. Buying
a property and getting married are
massive undertakings. You and
your fiancé have to be completely
honest about your plans and
expectations or things will become
very difficult further down the line.
No one says becoming a husband
or wife equals a boring existence,
struggling to juggle. Suggest she

(cruse.org.uk) regarding her issues
while you rebuild your own life. You
were keen to help when she was

allow anyone to insult you or bring
you down. This has to be a new
era of respect and understanding

You’d be well within your rights to

hassle-free alternative that won’t
break the bank or leave you living
in a building site for weeks on end.
A kitchen makeover rather than a
complete re-fitting is the latest trend
in cost saving home improvement,
and it’s no wonder it’s become so
popular! By replacing only the
cupboard doors and drawer fronts
and leaving your existing units in
place, you can create a brand new
looking kitchen without the cost,
mess and upheaval that you might
have imagined.
Let’s be honest, most of us
don’t really have much scope to
completely change the layout of our
kitchen; we like our sink in front
of the window and in general are
bound by existing electrical points,
pipe work and doors. So, if it works
well the way it is, why change it?
It’s the aesthetic elements of the
kitchen that tend to bear the brunt
of everyday life and suffer the most
wear and tear. This means that in
most cases, whilst your doors and
drawer fronts may be showing their

On your marks,
get set, sow…
Start now if you want a veg patch that crops from spring to autumn, says Alan

W
hen you grow your
own vegetables,
the best way to
maximise returns
from your plot is
to start sowing as early in the
season as possible.
Given a little protection from the
weather, you’ll be picking your first
home-grown crops while salads
and vegetables are expensive to
buy in the shops – and you’ll
extend your harvesting season
longer than usual, which means
you pick more from your patch
over the whole year.
Soil preparation
Choose a sunny, sheltered site
with well-drained soil for growing
early crops. Fork the ground over,
remove weeds and rubbish left
from previous crops and work in
plenty of well-rotted manure or
compost, except in places you
want to grow root vegetables.
Spread a sheet of black
polythene over the ground – or
if you own cloches or continuous
poly cloches, set them out in
rows. Leave the coverings in place
for two to three weeks. When the
weather has settled down and
seems fairly spring-like, lift the
covering off, hoe out any new
weeds, sprinkle a dressing of
general-purpose fertiliser – such
as blood, fish and bone – evenly
all over and rake it in.
What to sow or plant in late
February and early March
Sow as soon as you’ve completed
your final ground preparations
so the soil doesn’t have time
to get cold.
Sow rows of radishes, spinach,
spring onions and fast-maturing
lettuce, such as Little Gem, early
varieties of peas and carrots and
very hardy varieties of broad
beans, like The Sutton.
Plant out young summer
cabbage or cauliflowers that have
been propagated on windowsills or
bought from a nursery or garden
centre after hardening them off to
accustomise to outdoor conditions.
You can also plant young
strawberry plants or well-rooted
runners, again either home-saved
or bought. Early varieties will
yield the quickest crops, but
any strawberry plants will crop
earlier than usual when planted

A murder at a wedding is a relatable premise

nothing more criminal than a first dance to
Celine Dion, we’ve all witnessed the stresses
and tensions lurking beneath the jolly surface
of somebody’s big day and can imagine how
they might erupt into violence.
Like Lucy Foley’s bestselling last novel, The
Hunting Party, this is not just a whodunnit but
a dunnit-to-whom.
The book begins with a corpse spoiling the
wedding of star journalist Jules Keegan and
posh TV hunk Will Slater. Without the victim’s
identity being revealed, we then spool back

to the arrival of the guests for the lavish
ceremony on a virtually uninhabited island
off the coast of Ireland.
Among the wedding party are the groom’s
braying, hero-worshipping ushers, barely
matured from their days at public school,
the bride’s troubled teenage sister, monstrous
mother and rascally father and a couple
slightly out of place among the glitz and
the glamour and who are dangerously giddy
at the prospect of a weekend away from
the kids.
Thanks to some ludicrous coincidences, the
wedding party turns out to be a glorious stew
of renewed enmities and shocking revelations.
The characterisations are perfunctory and
one misses the spark of authorial empathy
that might make the book a less heartless
exercise in heaping misery on the privileged.
But if you’re not a softie, you’ll find this an
addictive, bracingly unpleasant read.

Could speed dating be a quick fix for
a broken heart? Short story by Rachel Marks
I
tried Tinder but couldn’t figure
out what to write in my bio – it
either sounded too “trying to
be witty” or too “blimey, she’s
boring” bland. How do you sell
yourself in 500 characters? And
how can I say, “I’m amazing, you
should choose me,” when the truth
is, choosing me is like choosing
to jump out of an aeroplane with
a faulty parachute – the odds are
not in your favour.
So here I am – speed dating. It
felt less contrived, somehow. But
then I walked in and cringeworthily
had to choose a nametag from
a list of celebrities (I went for
Cameron Diaz – we share
something of the same jawline).
I have 10 minutes to assess each
suitor before scoring them out of
five for how much I want to see
them again. So far, my page looks
like I’m playing a game of noughts
and crosses without an opponent.
I don’t mean to be harsh, but ‘Brad
Pitt’ was 5ft 3in with translucent
skin and an unhealthy interest in
my dental hygiene. It’s a date, not
an annual checkup. ‘Ricky Gervais’
was clearly hoping the whole
“funny men get beautiful women”
theory holds weight. The problem
being he wasn’t funny. And ‘David
Beckham’ spent the entire 10
minutes reciting football scores.
And no, he did not look like
Beckham. If he had, it might’ve
been less of an endurance.

– why even date when single life
offers such delights? When I glance
up, it takes me a minute to
register what I’m seeing, but then
it’s like someone’s dragging my
heart up through my throat.
“Boris Johnson?”
“I thought it might be a
conversation starter.” Luke pulls

hasn’t quite gone as planned.
“What about you? I’d have put
you less conventional – Lady
Gaga, Tilda Swinton…”
“An acquired taste?”
“I was thinking more ‘unique’.”
Luke’s always had a way with
words. Always known how to make
me feel like I’m the most amazing
person in the world, even though
I’m far from it.
“I suppose you and Boris share
similar hair.”
Luke runs a hand through his
messy blond hair (it’s nothing like
Boris’s really – it’s lovely) and
laughs. His laugh always had the
capability to melt me, even if we’d
been engaged in a huge argument
moments before or discussing
serious life decisions that we
fundamentally disagreed on.
“One woman, ‘Demi Moore’ –
similar in age only – said she
thought I looked more like David
Cameron. I thought she was joking
but her face stayed poker straight.”
Now it’s my turn to laugh. “It’s
the prominent forehead.”
Luke reaches across the table
and jabs me in the arm. “It’s a
sign of intelligence, you know?”
“There are exceptions to every
rule.” Luke smiles.
“So how is the score sheet
going?” I ask.
He holds up his sheet, a mirror
image of my own. “That well, huh?”
“You?” I can see the fear in his
eyes at my answer and I wish he
knew that, for me, there’s only
him. How I’m scared there will only
ever be him.
“Let’s just say I’m going to have
a different man lined up for every
night next week.”
“Good for you. And what score
do I get? Two out of five?”
“That’d be generous.”
“That’s what I thought. I guess
I’ll have to hope one of these
other women views me more
favourably.”
There’s
a sudden
shift in his
expression.
“Although I don’t
hope that, you know?
I don’t actually care
what they think.”
I know exactly what he’s saying.
That he only cares what I think.
And I want to tell him I could look
at his face, prominent forehead
and all, every day for the rest of
my life and never get bored. That
the four years, seven months, 23
days and five hours I spent with
him was the time I still measure
everything against, and against
which everything else comes up
short. But I can’t. Because I can’t
give him what he needs. There’s
no happy ending for us.
“‘J.Lo’ over there is pretty hot.”
Luke glances in the direction
of the tanned, toned bombshell on
the table across from us. Then he
turns his face away from her and
lowers his voice. “She’s about as
interesting as a paper bag.”
“You don’t have to converse in
the bedroom, you know?”
“True.” He pauses. “But
I want to.” When he holds eye
contact with me, I know he’s
picturing the way we would giggle
when we made love, the post-coital
intellectual debates.
Then the bell rings and the
men are summoned back to their
tables, and in part I’m grateful,
but in part I’m not ready.
“You know I want to see you
again, don’t you? I don’t need to
write it on this piece of paper.”
FICTION
I nod. “And me you. But
nothing’s changed, Luke.”
He takes a deep breath.
“Maybe I could cope without one?
Maybe you’re right? The sleepless
nights, nappies, tantrums… it’s
not that appealing, is it?”
“I’m always right.” I smile and
yet I’ve never felt sadder.
“What if it could be enough for
me? Just us.”
Over Luke’s shoulder, I notice
the organiser, Tom, heading
towards us. He places his
hand gently on Luke’s back.
“Time to fill out the cards for
any of the dates you’d like to
see again, although I might be
able to guess which one you’re
going to choose.”
Luke acknowledges his
comment with a half-smile but
doesn’t take his eyes off me.
I hand my cards to Tom. “None
for me tonight, I’m afraid.” Then
I start to leave, briefly turning back
to Luke. “Go for J.Lo. Some of us
just don’t shine on a first date.
Remember ours?”
Luke nods. “Always.” ● S

 INTERVIEW
“THIS photo was taken
in the summer of 1970
when we were filming The e
Railway Children. The
director Lionel Jeffries is
with Gary Warren (Peter
Waterbury), Jenny Agutterr

the Edwardian London house seen at the start rt
of the film which, if I remember rightly, was
filmed at Elstree Studios.

birthday and Lionel was probably explaining

week in S Magazine
This week it’s not just our columnist’s black labrador that’s in the doghouse.
Husband Richard has some explaining to do, too... Illustration by Susan Hellard
W
hen Daddy Dearest is preparing
for another stint abroad, he is
naturally desperate to spend as
much time as possible with the
family. As often as he can, he
dashes back from work in London in time to
collect Willow from school and have a relaxed
supper at home with her and the “frantically
earning as much as possible” gap-year Izzy.
Just last week he made a heroic effort,
managing to arrive home in time to join me for
a long walk with the dogs at dusk and a quick
cuppa before setting off to school. We had
a lovely walk, although it would’ve been more
enjoyable had the foxes and sparrowhawk
not left pieces of their previous evening meals
littered about the fields. No sooner had we
managed to wrestle something revolting from
the jaws of one of the dogs, than one of the
other members of our little pack focused on
a new scrap of unrecognisable creature.
It was more than a little unpleasant, and
although Sparrow and Ojo are very good at
giving up their finds, Blea is incredibly fast (and
secretive), so whatever she finds she
scurries away and eats before we
have the slightest chance of
catching her. And as for Dimple
Chicken… Well, she may be
a lapdog, but when it comes to
a tasty morsel she has jaws of
steel. Having lifted her to eye
level by the bone in her mouth,
that terrier was not letting go.
I had to prise her jaws open
to retrieve the (rabbit?) bone,
and she bounced up and down
to waist height the rest of the
walk home in a desperate
attempt to regain it.
As the sky turned dark we
were back home, the dogs
chomping their supper while
Susan Hellard c/o ARENA
we sipped our tea. Then
Richard set off for school
and I began preparing our
evening meal. Willow had asked
to be collected earlier than
usual, aware she wouldn’t see
Richard for a few weeks, and Izzy
S MAGAZINE ★ 16 FEBRUARY 2020  75
had a night off work, so everyone was looking
forward to a midweek feast.
It was all ready to serve as I heard the car
crunching on the gravel and the dogs were
going crazy with anticipation. Unusually,
Richard dropped Willow at the back door and
as she opened it, Ojo pushed open the child
gate with a swift smack of his enormous paw
and he, Sparrow and Chicken rushed through
to greet her. Sparrow, however, had another
goal in mind – the outdoor cat-food bowl.
Sparrow flew past Willow and dived into the
bowl, guzzling as if it were her last supper.
I was at the sink as Willow yelled, “She’s
eating Twiggy’s food!” I was in the middle of
saying just tell her no, when I heard Willow
yelp, followed by a disbelieving sob, “She bit
me.” I dropped everything and ran to Willow,
who was shaken, as Sparrow skulked past
us to her bed. She was immediately shouted
and scowled at. We all knew it was a mistake.
Willow made the error of grabbing Sparrow’s
ruff to pull her from the cat food, instead
of speaking first, and Sparrow instinctively
believed another animal was trying to steal
the food and reacted as she might to
a disrespectful member of the pack.
Sparrow had clearly realised her mistake
instantly, as she had only grazed Willow’s
hand, but it was a horrible moment.
We bathed Willow’s injury and carried on
as normal, but excluding Sparrow for the next
couple of hours. Whenever she attempted to
set foot off her bed she was sent back to it
and watched us avidly all evening, a look of
self-loathing written across her shamed face.
Willow was very matter-of-fact about the
incident, and disappeared upstairs to start her
homework, only to discover Frazzle had left a
“message” on her bed, so supper was delayed
while I disposed of yet another cat-soiled duvet
and changed her bedding.
Finally, we sat down to eat. Midway through
the meal, as Richard was telling us about his
marvellous new Morgan sports car, Willow rolled
her eyes, “You haven’t told them, have you?”
He looked very sheepish, “Ah, well… no.”
She took a deep breath, “So Daddy rocks up
in the Morgan, which was a bit of a surprise,
particularly when you have a ton of folders to
carry home, but that’s fine… Then I squeeze
myself and all my books into
the front seat and we just
get out of the school gates
when he tells me he’s running
out of fuel. And guess
what? He doesn’t have
his wallet on him.”
Richard was turning slightly
pink by this point. Willow
went on, “So I had to give
him £20 to put petrol in it,
then I get home, the dog bites
me and the cat wees on my
bed. I’m never coming home
early again.”
We saw the funny side of
it and Sparrow was forgiven
and hugged, Willow was
repaid and Izzy felt miffed
her day had been boring...
although she had managed
to serve a bottle of lager
into a customer’s pocket.
