The campaign was hugely successful.

We had a record number of entries, which meant that more community groups than ever engaged with the paper. Moreover, to go to Redland Green School and see how delighted they were to win and how the minibus transformed their school transportation was very inspirational.

In short, Renishaw and The Bristol Post were able to make a significant contribution to the community that will last for as long as the minibus runs – i.e. a very long time!

Cheers as brewer takes over landmark pubTA K EOV E R

A LONDON-based pub company hasbought one of Portishead’s most pop-ular hostelries.

City brewer and premium pubcompany Fuller, Smith and Turnerannounced this week it has boughtfreehold of The Windmill pub atNore Road.

The pub, which sits next to the golfcourse and was previously known asthe Hole in One, has been owned byJeff Churchill for the last 16 years.

During his time at the helm Jeff, awell-known and loved publican, ren-ovated and extended the pub toprovide 250 internal and 200 extern-

al covers.The pub, which dates back to the

mid-19th century, underwent amajor extension to its dining areaseveral years ago with a large ex-tension at the rear, offering pan-oramic views of the Severn Estuaryand Welsh coastline.

Mr Churchill, 65, said: “I wouldlike to congratulate Fullers on itsacquisition and wish the team everysuccess at The Windmill.

“Personally it has been a mag-nificent swansong for me after 37years in the industry.”

The pub deal was handled con-

fidentially and off market with MrChurchill being represented by leis-ure property specialist Fleurets.

A number of different parties putforward bids to purchase the pub.Fullers, Smith and Turner said thepub added to its growing south westportfolio of businesses.

Fuller’s Inns managing director,Jonathon Swaine, said: “We are veryexcited about the purchase of TheWindmill which will help us to con-tinue to build our portfolio in thesouth west.

“It fits with our strategy both interms of location and operation with

high food turnover and the mostfantastic vista.”

The deal is understood to havegone through earlier this week.

Fleurets associate Kevin Conibearsaid: “Business of the quality andtrading levels of The Windmillrarely become available.

“We approached a select numberof parties and received superb levelsof interest and bids from a number ofoperators. We are delighted thatFuller’s will continue Jeff ’s hardwork in establishing The Windmillas one of the best known licensedbusinesses in the region.”

RACE FOR LIFE

MORE than 8,000 woman across thecity have already signed up to takepart in this year’s Race For Life.

But there is still plenty of time toget involved in the fundraising event,which will see woman don brightpink clothing to take part in eitherfive or ten kilometre races to raisemoney for Cancer Research UK.

The annual event is one of the mostpopular in the fundraising calendar,but there are still around 7,000 spacesavailable for women in Bristol to geti nvo l ve d .

This year’s Race for Life is hopingto raise around £800,000 for the lifesaving charity, and have this yearintroduced a new event – P re t t yMuddy – which will see fundraiserstake part in a five kilometre assaultc o u r s e.

A spokesperson for the event said:“Thanks to research, cancer survival

MARGARET Britton hasseen 40 years of fashioncome and go, all from be-hind a Bristol Marks andSpencer counter.

The employee from Bristol celeb-rated working for the store for 40years this month, and was presentedwith a long service award in a glit-tering ceremony in London, com-plete with champagne and canapes.

Margaret started work at Marksand Spencer in Bristol in 1974, whenclothes rails were filled with flares,platform boots and hippy chic. Shesaid she has seen plenty of changes inher four decades of serving Bristol’s

fashion lovers.She started out on the sales floor,

before moving to admin and financeand finally a switchboard operator.So she has certainly earned a retire-ment break now, after faithful ser-vice for all those decades.

Margaret said: “I always loved myjob and it’s fantastic to mark my an-niversary and share stories with somany other long-serving Marks andSpencer colleagues from across thec o u n t r y.

“The trip to London was pure in-dulgence and a lovely way to celeb-rate 40 years. My husband come tooand we went to a West End showa f t e r w a rd s.

“I started on the sales floor, didvarious thing and finished served asa switchboard operator for 10 yearsuntil I recently retired.

“I enjoyed the one-to-one contact

there and often went out of my way tosource items for customers because Ienjoyed my job.”

Margaret was one of just 14 em-ployees across the UK celebrating 40ye a r s ’ service, but there were also 92staff who attended the event to cel-ebrate a quarter century with Marksand Spencer.

These included three of Margaret’scolleagues from M&S in Bristol –Ruta Pickles and Judith West, bothcustomer assistants, and Sara Card,who is a finance and operations sec-tion manager, as well as Hazel Reid.

With the help of an exhibition setup by the company archive in Leeds,all of them were able to reminisceabout their early days with M&S –from their trusty pencils, paper andmental arithmetic, in the absence oft o d ay ’s technology, to the very firstsales of wine in M&S stores in 1973.

The origins of the M&S Long Ser-vice Celebration date back to 1918,when an employee was awarded agold watch for 25 years loyal serviceto the company.

Since then, the awards have be-come an established Marks andSpencer tradition. Over the years,almost 19,000 employees have celeb-rated 25 years of service, and morethan 1,000 employees have worked atthe retailer for 40 years.

Sacha Berendji, director of retail,said: “We ’re incredibly proud of ourloyal workforce .

“To be raising a glass and toastingmore than a hundred staff this year isa real testament to the quality anddedication of our employees.

“Our stores have evolved signific-antly over the years, but good cus-tomer service is still central toeverything we do.”

MILLION PENNIES

� JOHN Billitteri predicts hisattempt to collect one millionpennies, or £10,000, couldtake him five years.

His total has reached200,000 pennies, which hecollected by asking fordonations and cyclingaround Bristol with a trailer,asking people to throw intheir spare change.

Mr Billitteri said: “I can’tthank the public enough.”

cycling for a great charity” andadded “please don’t hesitate to re-gister and take part”.

Mr Billitteri has previouslyclimbed up Mount Kilimanjaro andtaken part in a tandem skydive forthe charity.

He is hoping that this next eventcould bring his fundraising total to£60,000.

He began supporting Help for

Heroes when his daughter Marisatook part in the TV talent show XFactor in 2008.

Her singing on a charity singlefor the cause inspired him to keepraising money for it.

If you are interested in takingpart you can register for the bikeride by contacting Mr Billitteri on07775 870129, or email frankie-j o h n s @ h o t m a i l . c o. u k .

I would love to getover 200 people, buteven 50 would bebrilliant. The morepeople the better.

“rates have doubled in the last 40years. But we’re not finished yet.With your support we’ll get to curessooner. It doesn’t matter how you getinvolved, whether you run, walk, jogor dance the distance. As long asyo u ’re on our side, we can put cancerin its place.”

Last year’s event saw 8,000 womenrun, walk and jog around the downs,and this year’s event is set to be evenbig g er.

More than 300 Race for Life eventstake place across the UK every year,and the money raised goes towardsresearch to help beat all 200 types ofc a n c e r.

Race for Life have also given someadvice to participants for how theycan raise the most money.

A spokesperson said: “If you’restruggling with getting people tosponsor you, just remember thatoften the best way to have fun andraise sponsorship is to fundraise.Here are a few quick tips to give yousome ideas; Why not run asweepstake for people to guess yourrace time? Quiz nights are a greatway to raise money for a group, or

you could have a themed party withprizes for best costumes. If in doubt

a good old fashioned bake sale al-ways goes down well.”

This year’s event will take place atClifton Downs on Saturday 5 andSunday 6 July from 10am.

Babysitting teenager clearedof sexually assaulting his niece

C O U RT

A17-YEAR-OLD Bristol boy has beencleared of sexual assault chargesagainst his young niece. He stoodtrial in Bristol Youth Court afterbeing accused of touching his niece

inappropriately last November, when he was16 and she was five.

The prosecution suggested he was babysit-ting his niece one weekend, when they wentinto her bedroom and he took her leggings offand touched her.

He had been babysitting her for about a yearand was very close to the girl, and they wentinto her bedroom one afternoon to watch aDVD, while her mother was in the living roomof their Bristol home.

But a judge found the boy, who cannot benamed for legal reasons, not guilty of thecharges, saying there was no way she could besure the little girl had not imagined the situ-

ation, or got confused about what was hap-pening.

The teenager admitted being in the bed-room with the girl, watching a DVD andplaying games with her, but denied ever touch-ing her inappropriately.

Giving evidence in court, the teenager said:“She took her leggings off because we weresitting near a radiator and she was hot.”

The prosecution had said the young girl’sevidence had been clear and without any greya re a s.

Prosecuting, Tom Horder said: “The littlegirl was merely reporting what happened.

“It is not for the defendant to prove why she

would make it up, but there is no suggestion ofmotive or malice, no suggestion anyone puther up to it.”

Tony Miles, defending, said: “The defendantis also a vulnerable boy.

“It is an isolated allegation in the context ofthe period of child minding, which took placeover a year.

“It is difficult to fathom a child’s mind inthis context.

“The fact that these events were discloseddoes not mean that they are true.

“Children have imaginary worlds as well asreal worlds. I am not suggesting she is lying,but there is a difference between a lie andima gination.”

Giving her verdict, District Judge Joti BopaRai said she could not discount the boy’s clearevidence, and she could not be sure he wasg u i l t y.

She said: “I have had to take a lot of things inaccount – including context and the evidenceof the parties.

“Having heard the case, I have my doubts,and I am not sure of guilt. I must find thedefendant not guilty.”

� Former councillor KelvinBlake, talks about his campaignto Bristol Mayor GeorgeFerguson outside City HallPhoto: Simon Chapman

Protestertakes carcampaignto city hallFORMER Bristol councillorKelvin Blake is continuing hiscampaign to ensure disabled mo-torists can move freely aroundBristol as Residents’ Pa rk i n gZones (RPZs) are rolled out.

He staged a protest outsideCity Hall on Tuesday, just beforeBristol City Council’s first fullcouncil meeting since lastmonth’s local elections.

As previously reported in theBristol Post, Mr Blake, who wasleft disabled after a motorbikeaccident in 2006, says the zoneswill make it harder for thoseholding a Blue Badge to getaround because they are notallowed to park freely in RPZpermit-holder bays.

He described the policy asridiculous and said it was out ofline with other cities like Bathand Manchester, as well as mostLondon boroughs.

He has been calling on mayorGeorge Ferguson to adjust thescheme to prove he really is an“inclusive mayor”. The debatehas played out on Twitter andseen Mr Blake garner muchsuppor t.

Mr Ferguson has told MrBlake that he will review thescheme but says that the RPZs in

Bristol follow Department ofTransport Blue Badge guid-a n c e.

Currently Blue Badge holderscan park for up to three hours ondouble or single yellow lines, and

in pay and display parking baysfor free, but need a resident’s orvisitor’s permit to park in res-ident-only bays.

WHAT do we really know aboutteaching and teachers in Eng-land’s schools? What is teachingin England really like in com-parison with other countries?

Schools and classrooms are often describedas black boxes in which the teaching andlearning process are impossible to truly cap-ture and monitor in depth. In a bid to assist inthis exploration of pupil learning The Or-ganisation for Economic Co-operation and De-velopment (OECD) developed the Teaching andLearning International Survey (TALIS).

TALIS does not directly link classroomteaching practices with learning outcomes. Itsstarting point is that teachers who believe theycan successfully teach the most difficult sub-jects and the most difficult students are thosewho set higher standards and deliver betterlearning outcomes

One of the key findings of the 2013 surveywas around the concept of self-efficacy – t e a ch -ers’ beliefs about their ability to influencelearning. There are disparities between teach-ers’ sense of their effectiveness, but the in-teresting element was that the differencewithin schools was much greater than thatbetween schools.

In short it illustrates the importance ofteams and how strong teamwork is. Teachersworking in groups develop confidence whichin turn enhances their effectiveness in theclassroom. There is no difference betweenindependent and state-funded schools, norbetween affluent and deprived schools.

The proportion of teachers who frequentlyuse selected tasks according to pupil ability is63 per cent in England, 53 per cent in lowperforming countries and 32 per cent in highperforming countries. The proportion of teach-ers who use group work frequently is 58 percent in England, 61 per cent in low performingcountries and 25 per cent in high performingc o u n t r i e s.

In terms of pupil voice, it was found thatteachers in high performing countries useconsiderably less pupil consultation than inEngland.

The findings of this survey indicate thatteachers who participate more in decisionmaking in their school are also more likely tobelieve that society values teachers. Statist-ically this is translated as follows, only one inthree teachers in England (35 per cent) believesthe teaching profession is valued by society.

Teachers in most high-performing countriesare more positive. For example in Singaporeand Korea two thirds of teachers believe thatthey are valued.

If formal collaborative activities aren’talready established, teachers should take theinitiative to create them.

It is apparent that the development of teach-er confidence and positive feedback for a jobwell done is integral to the success theyachieve in the classroom. Teachers have aresponsibility to develop the future of ourcountry and to nurture the individuals striv-ing to take on this role.

As such it is critical that they are given thesupport to achieve this and that they are giventhe opportunity to teach as opposed to com-pleting bureaucratic tasks which detract fromthe task at hand.

‘Reopen rail station serving Ashton Gate’T RA N S P O RT

THE Green Party in South Bris-tol is calling on the Governmentto reopen a railway station atAshton Gate along the plannedlink from Bristol to Portishead.

Parliamentary candidate forBristol South Tony Dyer andcouncillor for Southville CharlieBolton said they wanted to seethe station reopened for the sta-dium and nearby businesses.

They noted that the Portishead

line is earmarked to be reopenedin the Metro West developmentsbut details about the station areomitted.

They said they “strongly sup-por t” moves by Bristol Sport,owners of Bristol City, to bringabout the reopening of a stationat Ashton Gate.

Mr Dyer said: “We stronglysupport the calls in all three sub-missions for the reopening of pas-

senger services on thePortishead line.

“We note that the reopening ofthe Portishead line is included inthe MetroWest Phase One pro-g ramme.

“However, we are concernedthat a station at Ashton Gate isnot included in the options stud-ied in the MetroWest interim re-port published in November2013.

“We believe this to be a sig-nificant error of omission.”

Mr Bolton added: “We are con-cerned that the opportunity todeliver a station in the Ashtonarea, serving not just the stadiumdevelopment but also the com-munities of Ashton Gate, AshtonVale, Bedminster and Southville,as well as the commercialpremises on Winterstoke Road,should not be overlooked.”

COMMENT: PAGE 11

JAN Little was the fifth nurseto ever be employed by StPe t e r ’s Hospice. When shetook up her post the charityhad no building and the hos-pice faced opposition fromsome doctors who resisted

the upsurge of hospice health-c a re.

This was 35 years ago and afterdedicating the majority of hercareer to caring for terminally illpeople at Bristol’s only adult hos-pice in Brentry, Jan is retiring.

And to mark her outstandingdevotion to the organisation, col-leagues old and new gathered foran emotional leaving party yes-t e rd ay.

Jan, first worked as a nurse atthe Middlesex Hospital in Lon-don, then moved back to Bristolto the radiotherapy centre.

It was there where she met alady who watched her husband

die in hospital.“She said to me ‘if I had more

support at home I would havetaken him home to die’,” saidJan. “That really stuck with me, Ithought there should be moresupport for people.”

St Peter’s Hospice waslaunched the year before in 1978and the whole concept of caringfor the dying through pain reliefwas steadily gaining supportacross the country.

Jan worked as a communitynurse for a number of years be-fore beginning as an inpatientnurse where she was promoted toward manager.

The 61-year-old said there weretoo many highlights throughouther career to pick just one but shefelt very honoured to have spenther working life at such a specialp l a c e.

She said: “It could be very dif-ficult at times, but actually ifsomeone dying didn’t get to youthen you shouldn’t be doing thejob anymore.

“What makes it such a greatplace to work is the fact that it is

really welcoming – people canbring their pets, all the familycan come. We make sure the pa-tient’s quality of life is as positiveas possible.

“People really care here andit’s not just about the patient butthe whole family.”

Jan plans to spend her retire-ment pursuing her love of dressmaking and gardening.

Jan, from Knowle, said: “I’vebeen told once you retire youd o n’t know how you had the timeto work so I hope that’s right.

“I’ll be visiting everyone, I’vemade some great friends here.”

Dr Carole Dacombe hasworked alongside Jan as the hos-pice’s medical director for 24ye a r s.

Carole said: “Jan worked at thehospice because she believes inwhat we do for patients and theirfamilies. Jan is a very senior andexperienced manager. She is stillat heart a nurse and I think thatcomes across. She always wantsto help people.

“She’s incredibly hard work-ing and conscientious, she is

very people focused and she has agreat sense of humour. She willbe missed, she represents the his-tory of the hospice and her re-tirement is a milestone.”

IWAS recently classified a ‘p u r i t a n’ fo rmundanely opting to purchase a fish filletmeal rather than “e n j oy ” a McDonald’sHamburger. “I thought you of all peoplewould be more enlightened,” she added.

That the choice of what I eat can be used togauge my level of ‘Islamism/fundamentalism’was remarkable. That the label was comingfrom a fellow “Muslim” was even more curi-ous. Not once did I question her non-halal op-tion, but she seemed obsessed with my choice.She later also offered her misgivings about thecheese in my fish fillet potentially being madewith animal rennet. By the time I’d washeddown my bite of the fillet with a tasty beverage,I’d become too distracted by the view from thewindow behind her to muster a response. Yet, Iwas clear in my mind that her musings weremore a justification to herself, for taking the‘non-halal’ option.

While attending a public debate about thebanning of the niqab (face veil), one lady, notwearing either the face veil or head scarf,offered to defend the rights of the Muslimwomen who chose to wear the niqab, if they inturn defended her right not to do so. Quid proquo, you may think. But, ignoring the obviousfact that the only right being questioned wasthe one to actually wear the niqab, since whenhas doing the right thing become conditionalupon others doing so too?

In both incidents, the right to not practiseIslam was not questioned. But in both incid-ents the individuals seemed to bring attentionto their non-practice as somehow being prob-lematic. In both instances it wasn’t.

This mindset – the one that unduly claimsthat non-practising of Islam is seen as prob-lematic and individuals victimised or harassed– is then given a public airing in our nationalmedia, in public debates, where it morphs intopolitical opinion; all of it seemingly concertedin portraying practising Muslims in this coun-try as a conveyor belt to extremism.

The battle lines are drawn. The ‘Muslimcamp’ is essentially divided against itself:between practising and non-practicing (yes, itis possible to be a non-practising Muslim). Thenon-practising Muslims are publicly distan-cing themselves from what they believe to be astigmatised community. Unfortunately, indoing so they are transforming themselvesinto the ‘house Muslim’ ever ready to find faultwith fellow Muslims at the behest of “His Mas-ters Voice” – blissfully unaware it seems, thatwhen push comes to shove, the crescent andmoon will not just be painted on the doors of the“practising Muslims”!

The plethora of national ‘Muslim” g roupsdubiously claiming to “counter extremism” fo rexample, that are suspiciously popping up allover the country are all just conveniently busyreinforcing that prevailing anti-Islam/Muslim stereotype, using abhorrent examplesfrom other countries, and baited buzzwordslike “shariah”, “halal” and now “Trojan horse”– deliberately choosing to appear in the na-tional media, rather than down the localm o s q u e.

The message is clear, despite being rejectedby grassroots Muslim communities: there’s aslow takeover of the world by zealots, bringingdarkness and servitude, presumably, while anevil turbaned leader sits in a cave somewhere,stroking a black and white cat!

That there are issues, there is no doubt. I’veraised many of them in the past in these verypages. But throwing the baby out with thebathwater is no solution.

Politicians and local stakeholders beware:you cannot have any impact within the Muslimcommunities if you choose to support or linkwith groups that work outside of them.

TUESDAY THOUGHT

Minister is urgingcouncil to drop itsgreen ‘stealth tax’

ACABINET minister has urgedSouth Gloucestershire to scrapits new annual fee for collectinggarden waste bins, describing itas a “stealth tax”.

Communities and Local GovernmentSecretary Eric Pickles gave his formalbacking to a 6,000-strong petition fromresidents, after they called on the Gov-ernment to encourage South Gloucester-shire Council to reconsider its decision tobring in the £36 charge.

The Minister’s intervention could helpedge campaigners a step closer to seeingthe council abandon the controversialcharge, which was introduced on April 1.

Mr Pickles said that while there weremechanisms in place to allow councils tocharge for discretionary services, includ-ing garden waste, “councils should not beintroducing stealth taxes by imposingnew charges on local residents”.

In his reply to Kingswood MP ChrisSkidmore, who presented the petition toParliament at the end of April, he sug-gested that the cost-saving measure couldbackfire in the long-run.

Mr Pickles said: “Such charges alsothreaten to increase fly-tipping, increas-ing clean-up costs for the council andharming the environment.”

Mr Skidmore welcomed the support ofhis Conservative colleague and urged thecouncil to follow Mr Pickles’ g u i d a n c e.

He told the Bristol Post: “It is extremelywelcome that the Secretary of State agreesthat the green bin charge is nothing but astealth tax. I hope that the Labour and LibDem councillors who voted for this pun-itive measure will now take heed of hisa dv i c e. ”

In his endorsement of the petition, MrPickles suggested South GloucestershireCouncil could make alternative savingsthrough improvements to its procure-ment processes, as well as cutting down onthe duplication of work, and doing more totackle fraud.

Mr Pickles added: “This Governmenthas taken a series of steps to work withcouncils to support regular and compre-hensive rubbish and recycling collections,as well as stopping the imposition of bintaxes and backdoor charges on the col-lection of residual waste.”

His comments follow a committee meet-ing on Wednesday evening, in which thecouncil rejected moves by Tory council-lors to ditch the fee, opting instead for areview. A report will now be producedoutlining the possible implications ofscrapping the charge.

Labour and the Lib Dems have accusedto Tories of latching on to the issue as apublicity stunt and say their alternativeplans would have put libraries underthreat of closure.

A square meal from urban allotmentMILLENNIUM Square has been conver-ted into an edible “urban allotment”.

It is hoped by autumn everything fromkale to marrows, squashes and pumpkinswill be growing there.

At-Bristol launched the initiative in

collaboration with Almondsbury GardenCentre and Incredible Edible Bristol.

The first of five raised beds was plantedlast week, with the following ones beinginstalled in the autumn when growing isat a prime after the summer months.

LOOK out for rogue shadowslurking on Bristol streets inthe autumn. As part of thisye a r ’s Playable City Award, anew interactive installation,

Shadowing, will be installed in thecity centre.

In September and October, after thesun goes down and street lights comeon, traces of those who have passed byon certain streets will be played backas shadows, re-animating the pave-m e n t s.

As people interact with these curi-ous figures, their movements and ac-tions will be recorded and echoedback to the next visitor.

The installation, which has won a£30,000 prize to pay to bring it to thecity’s streets, was created by designduo Jonathan Chomko and MatthewRosier, based in New York and Tre-viso, Italy respectively.

It is the successor to Hello Lamp-post, which enabled people to have atext discussion with inanimate ob-jects in the city, including lamp posts,bollards and post boxes.

The Shadowing team will now workwith Watershed Producers to exploretheir ideas. They will then start todevelop the infrared technologyneeded to capture people’s outlinesand work out ways to project move-ment back as shadows after peoplehave moved on.

Organisers said the project offerspassers-by a trace of those who havewalked the same path moments, daysor weeks before, at times “like ghostlytime travellers”.

A spokesperson added: “As well aspeeling back the traces of the city’snooks and crannies, Shadowing of-fers an exploration of the disconnec-tedness that technology can create

between strangers, the role of light increating a city’s character, and theunseen data layers and surveillanceculture that pervades our contem-porary urban spaces.”

The award, launched last year byWatershed, invites artists, designers,architects and creative practitionersfrom all over the world to propose newideas that will make cities into play-able, open, and configurable spaces.

Shadowing was selected from 78applications received from 29 coun-tries around the world, and will beinstalled in September, launching atthe inaugural Making the City Play-able conference, before setting off onan international tour.

IT WASN’T part of his original plan, butwhen Milan-born Giuseppe di Murocouldn’t raise the money for a communityinterest company specialising in green

energy, he decided to open a restaurant in-stead.

He kept the name of Fised (it stands forfactory, Italian/international, social, ethical,desire) and opened in what had previouslybeen an Indian food business on GloucesterRoad. If the restaurant is a success, Giuseppesays he will reinvest partof the profits into hisgreen energy social enter-prise business.

In the meantime, he iscooking the sort of region-al Italian dishes he ate as achild and, although heisn’t a trained chef, he hasclearly learnt well from hismum and grandmother.

Set across two floors,Fised Italian is a modestaffair with an open kit-chen complete with pizza oven, a counter atthe front and a handful of tables on themezzanine area.

There is no alcohol licence, but you arewelcome to bring your own wine and beer, andfood can be eaten in the restaurant or takenaway.

Giuseppe describes it as a “hot table” ratherthan a restaurant – he wants people to pop inwhether they just want a bowl of pasta or tostay for three courses, and his aim is to keepprices as low as possible.

The owner cooks everything from scratchand even bakes his own biscuits and makes thedesserts. He also makes the dough for the

pizzas and the fresh tagliatelle pasta every day,using the best Italian flour.

For the sauces and toppings, he buys in-gredients as locally as he can, including fromGloucester Road businesses such as Pawsonsgreengrocers, Dave Giles Butchers and Joe’sBakery.

The menu is concise and reasonably priced.There are ten deep-pan, Milanese-style pizzas,priced from £3.20 for the Margherita to £4.95for the Capricciosa (tomato, mozzarella, ham,

mushrooms, black olives,artichokes).

Pasta dishes are offeredwith a choice of pasta(penne, fusilli or spa-ghetti) and start at £2.95for a simple dish of garlic,olive oil and chilli. Themore expensive hand-made tagliatelle withhomemade meatballs is£6.90 but it’s a moun-tainous portion for themoney.

I started with the bruschetta (£1.50) – a thickslice of toast topped with ripe cherry tomatoes,chunks of garlic, a sprinkling of dried oregano,a dribble of fruity olive oil and a generous twistof salt and black pepper. OK, it was nothingyou can’t rustle up at home in a jiffy, but it hitthe spot and it had been made with greatcare.

Similarly, a main course of penne withaubergine, tomato and smoked mozzarella(£4.50) was something any decent home cookcan knock up clutching a Marcella Hazan bookand good ingredients, but it was full-flavoured,unpretentious Italian home cooking at its bestand the genuine article.

Small kitchen with a big heart

Reviewing restaurants several times aweek in the line of duty can be toughon the waistline and, with a beachholiday looming, a few healthy sup-

pers are required if I’m to shoehorn myselfinto last year’s shorts and knotted hanky.

Japanese café and takeaway Yume Kitchencertainly fits the bill when it comes to offeringa range of light, healthy options and many ofthe dishes on the menu are also gluten-free.

This is the second Yume Kitchen and itoccupies a former Chinese takeaway on Re-gent Street. The originalYume Kitchen opened onCotham Hill last year andit’s especially popularwith university students.

The new Clifton branchfeels a little unfinished atthe moment as the down-stairs dining area is stillbeing renovated, but thatshould be ready in timefor the return of the stu-dents in September.

In the meantime, youcan take your food away –ideal for those who fancy an impromptu picnicon the Downs, or in nearby Victoria Square –or grab one of the stools and eat in the shopitself. It’s an unremarkable room, with whitewalls dotted with framed photos of food andthere’s no music, just the perpetual hum fromthe fridge storing the takeaway sushi andsashimi boxes.

For those of us with little willpower, the factYume doesn’t serve alcohol makes it a relativesafe haven for anybody feebly attempting tocut down in order to achieve anything re-

motely resembling a beach body, although itmight be advisable to ignore the dessert menuand its distractions such as vanilla ice creammochi (glutinous rice balls filled with icecream).

Sushi fans are really spoilt for choice here,with everything from nigirizushi (pressed ricetopped with seafood or vegetables) to temaki(cone-shaped rolls filled with such combin-ations as salmon, avocado and mayonnaise, orsoft-shell crab tempura, roe and pickles withchilli mayo).

I started with a fishhosomaki (£5.50) com-prising 12 bite-size noriseaweed-wrapped rollsof both salmon and avo-cado and tuna andspring onion – six ofeach – which were skil-fully made, delicate andvery fresh-tasting.

The hot dishes atYume include soup,katsu, bento and variousnoodle offerings. Dishesto catch the eye included

spicy seafood udon noodles, chicken katsucurry and pork ramen noodle soup.

I had the beef teriyaki (£7.50), which took mea little by surprise as the strips of meat hadbeen coated in a crisp and light tempura batterencrusted with sesame seeds. Not that it madethe dish any less enjoyable – the beef wastender within and it was served with a de-licious teriyaki sauce, a mound of sticky whiterice and slices of chillies, spring onions, broc-coli and pickled mooli providing a piquantcrunch.

As b estos I was given 18 monthsto live... that was 19 months ago

RAY Johnson was told heonly had 18 months to liveafter being diagnosed withterminal cancer caused bydeadly asbestos dust.

But 19 months later and Ray, fromHorfield, says apart from tiredness,he feels as healthy as ever.

The 74-year-old has vowed to liveevery day to the full until his illnesstakes its grip.

He is now raising awarenessabout the dangers of being exposedto asbestos fibres for a prolongedtime. He wants all employers to offertheir staff the correct protection toensure other lives are not lost un-n e c e s s a r i ly.

Ray worked as an engineer during

the 1960s, fitting steam pipes filledwith asbestos.

The dangers of asbestos were un-known at this time, so Ray wouldspend his days surrounded by it.

It took almost 50 years for him torealise the damage this had on hisl u n g s.

Illnesses caused by asbestos nor-mally take decades to develop. Hesaid the first sign was a severe,persistent cough.

Ray said: “My wife saw an adverton the television about asbestos andtold me I should see the doctor aboutmy cough.

“I was booked in for a scanstraight away and they found therewas asbestos in my lungs.

“I was obviously shocked when Iwas told they knew what I had gotbut couldn’t do more than ease thes y m p t o m s. ”

Ray was diagnosed with meso-thelioma, a rare form of cancer that

effects the lining of lungs. He said: “Itry to live every day to the full.

“We don’t want to be downbeat. Ihave already lasted longer than doc-tors expected.”

Last Friday was national ActionMesothelioma Day.

To mark the occasion a group ofsufferers and health workers re-leased doves outside the M Shed, as asymbol of hope for those affected bya s b e s t o s.

Among the crowd was the chair ofBristol and Beyond Asbestos FamilySupport, Sarah Smith.

The cancer nurse specialist, whois based at Southmead Hospital, saidaround 30 to 40 people were dia-gnosed with mesothelioma in northBristol each year.

She said: “The illness has an un-believable impact on the whole fam-i ly.

“Normally when someone findsout they have mesothelioma other

people in the family will have itt o o.

“When a man used to come home,his wife would clean his clothes andhang them out to dry around thekids. The clothes will still have thedust on, so it would impact on every-one’s life.”

The main symptoms of the illnessinclude a cough, shortness of breathand pain in the lower back.

The 47-year-old added: “It’s im-portant people know about meso-thelioma because the earliersomeone is diagnosed the moretreatment is available.

ASBESTOS

� ASBESTOS is the biggestcause of work-related deathsin the UK.

Every week on average 20tradesmen die from exposureto asbestos in the UK.

Asbestos was extensivelyused as a building material inthe UK from the 1950s throughto the mid-1980s. It was usedfor a variety of purposes andwas ideal for fireproofing andinsulation. Any building builtbefore 2000 can contain it.

When asbestos fibres areinhaled they can cause seriousdiseases which areresponsible for around 2,500deaths a year. There are fourmain diseases caused byasbestos:� Mesothelioma this isalways fatal.� Lung cancer this willalmost always be fatal,� Asbestosis is a is a chroniclong-term lung condition thatis not usually a terminal illness.It’s symptoms include acough, a shortness of breathand can be very debilitating� Diffuse pleural thickening,this involves the lining of lungsthickening. It most commonlyleads to worsening shortnessof breath and also tightness inthe chest, as the lungs cannotfully expand when you breathein.Asbestos is a general termthat refers to a group ofminerals made of long,crystalline fibres. Asbestosfibres are very strong andresistant to heat, electricityand chemicals. It was widelyused in industries such as:� insulation� shipbuilding and railways� electricity generation� building and constructionThere are three main types ofasbestos:� crocidolite blue asbestos� amosite brown asbestos� chrysotile white asbestosAll types of asbestos arehazardous, but blue andbrown asbestos are muchmore dangerous than whiteasbestos.

Operating theatre in African hospital savedCHARITY

GENEROUS worshippers at Bristol’s St MaryRedcliffe church have saved an operatingtheatre in a remote African hospital.

Vital medical equipment was urgently re-quired in an operating theatre in the hospitalin Zambia, which saves thousands oflives in the country.

This year’s annual appeal by theRedcliffe Way church raised al-most £4,000 to help St FrancisHospital in the small Zambiantown of Katete.

Managed jointly by theAnglican and Catholicchurches of Zambia, and sup-ported by the Zambian Ministryof Health, the hospital has threeoperating theatres used for morethan 3,000 surgical operations annu-a l ly.

The vicar of St Mary Redcliffe, the ReverendDan Tyndall (p i c t u re d ), said the theatres relyon simple equipment.

He said: “This is one of the largest andbusiest mission hospitals in Zambia but its

remote location and disrupted electricity sup-plies mean that the theatres rely on mech-anically simple equipment.

“Much of it is unreliable as it is more than 20years old.”

The money raised in Bristol hasbeen used to buy and deliver a pair

of replacement draw-over vapor-isers, integral components inthe anaesthetic equipmentused by the hospital.

St Mary Redcliffe has ac-quired the vaporisers fromthe only British manufacturerof the delicate devices,

Devon-based Diamedica, whichspecialises in medical equip-

ment for those working in chal-lenging environments around the

wo rl d .Now they are being dispatched to the Afric-

an hospital which serves a huge community ofpoor rural farmers. Its reputation forhigh-quality health care draws patients fromall over eastern Zambia.

OUR GP services are in crisis.Coalition reforms to the NHShave left doctors overworked andunder-supported. Patients arewaiting longer and longer to see

their GPs, some only to find that the treat-ment they need is unavailable.

You may be aware that St Martin’s Sur-gery in Knowle was earlier this yearthreatened with closure after the two GPsworking there were forced to leave due tothe difficulties caused by the current Gov-er nment’s reorganisation of the NHS.

Since then I’ve surveyed GP practices inmy constituency of Bristol East – alongsideLabour candidates in Bristol – to find outmore about the problems doctors are fa-cing. The results of this investigation havefilled me with deep concern about thefuture of our local NHS services.

These problems have been frankly pre-dictable since the passing of this Gov-er nment’s deeply unpopular Health andSocial Care Bill.

The Labour Party, many of my constitu-ents and prominent health care associ-ations feared greater health inequalities,longer waiting times, more bureaucracyand warned that the law would lead to afragmented NHS on the verge of full-scaleprivatisation. Sadly, this is exactly what wehave seen.

When Labour left office in 2010, NHSwaiting times were at a record low. Now,60% of patients are unable to see their GPwithin two days, and the number of peoplewaiting more than 18 weeks for treatmenthas increased by 50%.

At a time of unprecedented cuts, £3 bil-lion was spent on a reorganisation of theNHS which has only led to more bur-eaucracy and increased paperwork for doc-tors and nurses. Earlier this year, a BMAsurvey found that this workload has led tomore than half of GPs describing theirmorale as ‘l ow ’ or ‘very low’.

GP surgeries in Bristol have told me thesame story. Several have said they areoverwhelmed. One stated that, as a resultof the coalition’s policies, they were onedoctor away from being faced with closurelike St Martin’s Surgery.

Equally worrying is the negative impactwhich the coalition’s focus on competitionis having on local services in Bristol. An-other practice has indicated that as a resultof it not offering certain services, author-ities have threatened that its patients maybe offered up to private companies.

A Labour Government after the nextgeneral election will repeal the Health andSocial Care Act. Additionally, we will in-troduce guarantees so that everyone is ableto get an NHS GP within 48 hours, andthose who need prompt attention are ableto see a doctor the same day.

There is no denying that our NHS faceschallenges in the coming years, but frag-mentation and privatisation are not theanswer. We need a strong health servicethat prioritises public provision, which isbacked by a Government that values thebasic principles on which the NHS wasoriginally founded.

� An artist’s impression of the planned arena in Bristol

Lib Dems whippingup false fears overarena, says mayor

BRISTOL mayor George Ferguson haslaunched a scathing attack on theLiberal Democrats following thepar ty’s claims of a £10 million “bl a ckhole” in the budget for the

city’s arena. The Mayor accused LibDems of a “deeply cynical at-tempt” to undermine him afterthe party raised questions aboutshrinking income projectionsfrom a proposed car park.

A recent report shows prob-lems with building a car park forthe arena near Temple Meadshave left the budget in need ofadjustment. But the mayor said plan-ning was still at an early stage and hewas certain that variances would be balancedover the long term.

He said he was determined to see the arenathrough and accused the Lib Dems of trying to“whip up false fears” and said he wanted to“make it absolutely plain” that the arenaproject would be delivered.

Mr Ferguson’s remarks came after the LibDems Tim Kent and Gary Hopkins spoke out.The latter raised the question “why the mayor

is insisting on spending £91 million when hehas only recently cut £83 million for thecouncil budget”.

But Mr Ferguson dismissed the “pot-stir-ring” on the grounds that the cuts were takenfrom day-to-day running costs and not a cap-ital project like the arena, where the fundingis completely separate.

He said: “The Lib Dems know this, so I canonly interpret their media campaign as a

deeply cynical and politically motiv-ated attempt to undermine me and

the wider council - somethingwhich shows complete contemptfor the media, local people andthe overwhelming regional de-sire for an arena.”

The £90 million arena is beingpaid for by projected long-term

income from parking and rentalfrom its operator, which has yet to

be announced. It is also beingpart-financed by the City Deal, which

will allow the council to use business ratesfrom the Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone.

Mr Ferguson said: “We are now well on theway to delivering this important facility thatis a major catalyst for the regeneration of theenterprise zone and will bring millions ofpounds to the wider city region.”

Officers are looking into the parking prob-lem on the arena site. There are 2,500 parkingspaces available within 15 minutes walk.

LIB DEMS ’ RESPONSE

� Tim Kent, Lib Dem councillor forWhitchurch Park, responded to themayor last night.

He said: “The mayor says this anytime anyone says anything which raisesquestions.

“He attacks them to say they areplaying politics.

“I say we are elected councillors andelected to look after the public’s money.

“I say it is their money and not themayor’s money.”

� Gary Hopkins, Lib Dem councillor forKnowle and current party leader said onWednesday night: “It is disappointingthat the Mayor is attacking CouncillorKent for asking responsible questionsabout finances – the money belongs tothe public, not to the mayor...

“The mayor cannot hide from thesimple fact that the current sums do notadd up.

“Bristol cannot have an Arena withoutsecure plans in place for parking.”

THE keys to a shiny new £30,000minibus have been handed over tothe winner of the Bristol Post’s latestcompetition. The lucky winners atRedland Green school gathered for

almost 150 other schools, community groupsand sports clubs who entered, much to thedelight of staff and students.

The 14-seater Ford Transit van isstate-of-the-art, featuring all the latest tech-nology including Bluetooth, parking censorsand a rear-view camera.

Sarah Baker, the school’s head teacher,said: “Everyone at Redland Green is de-

lighted that we have won the minibus. What awonderful start to the new academic year.

“Thank you to all our parents, staff, stu-dents and supporters that helped us collectthe vouchers! This will really make a dif-ference to the day-to-day learning and activ-ities of our students.

“We will be able to take them out oneducational trips and sporting activities at amoments notice and give our students moreopportunities for learning outside school ande n r i ch m e n t . ”

Once they were registered, thegroups rallied their troops and started col-lecting tokens in the paper. The more tokenscollected, the more chance entrants had inthe final prize draw which took place earlierthis month at the Post’s offices in TempleWa y.

In a break from the traditional draw from ahat, the Lord Mayor of Bristol Alastair Wat-son plucked a piece of paper with the nameRedland Green on it out of a special cubiclewhich blew around slips marked with names

of the entrants. The school is hoping that thenew minibus will allow it to offer its studentsthe chance to take part in more competitivesports by enabling them to attend more awaym at ch e s.

R EV I EWPlay Strindberg

Ustinov Studio, BathBy Alan King ��

� THE Ustinov, which hasre-invented itself in recentseasons under the inspiredguidance of Artistic DirectorLaurence Boswell, reachesfor even greater theatricalheights with this, the first of atrio of black comedies to bepresented during the autumn.

The play, penned in 1968by the late Swiss playwrightFriedrich Durrenmatt hasbeen pared down from alengthier work by AugustStrindberg. In the hands oftranslator Alistair Beaton and

director Nancy Meckler it isnow a taut, crisp 90 minutes.

Set on a Scandinavianisland it is presented – like aboxing match – as twelverounds each introduced withits own title. And the battlethat goes on betweenbombastic husband andbitter wife is as bloody asanything you will see in thering.

Edgar, an army captain andonce respected militaryhistorian despises everyonehe knows and none more so

than his wife of 25 years Alice– formally an actress. Theyfight each other constantlywith insults and silence. Hesuffers a series of blackoutsand she encourages himtowards death. Into this grislycontest comes Kurt, Alice’scousin who has arrived to runthe island’s customs houseand the dance of deathbecomes more complex in itsplot and more biting in itsdark humour.

News of the Ustinov’simpressive re-birth has meant

that it can now attract topperformers and the three inthis production are all highquality. Greg Hicks contortsface and body in an amazingphysical performance asEdgar, Sally Dexter displays aviperous tongue andsensuous body as Alice andRichard Clothier completes atop class trio as Kurt.

Designers Max Jones andRuth Hall have created astartling set with a circular,rubble-floored. sunken roomcontaining upright piano,round card table and teletextmachine all surrounded by aring of light.

The presentation runs untilOctober 11.
