We finished with banoffee creme brulee and two of the mini puds - strawberry pannacotta (fresh strawberry compote set in vanilla cream) and raspberry cheesecake, which were absolutely divine and priced very reasonably.

All ingredients are locally sourced and beautifully cooked. I started with meaty king prawns with a tangy chilli and lime dressing, while my partner chose the warm duck salad. For the main course she plumped for roast lamb shank with cranberry, mint and brandy sauce - her satisfied smile said it all. I went for the roast duck with blackberry and Port sauce - rich and undeniably delicious. My partner completed the meal with a white chocolate and Baileys cheesecake. Regrettably, all I could manage was a black coffee and a pledge to come prepared for a veritable feast next time. Open: Mon - Sat noon - 2.30pm, 6.30pm - 9.00pm, Sunday noon - 2.30pm Page 6.

Page 9 Coping with Bereavement 130 years of funeral directing James Brothers Funeral Directors, based in Plymouth offers 130 years of funeral directing experience and more to give a loved one the passing they deserve and comfort for the family and friends facing bereavement and trying to cope with a loss... James Brothers can be contacted any time of the week for guidance and advice on reacting to a loss and can help people through the necessary steps ahead. James Brothers promises to answer the phones 24/7 and can be contacted for further details in funeral planning and preparing the next stages such as picking the right funeral car, choosing flowers, headstones, coffins, caskets and memorials. James Brothers assist people to decide which memorial is best for them whether it is a stone memorial, an urn or a simple bouquet and base. The ideas behind all the different memorial types involve the history behind the deceased and what they do for the people who suffer the loss. An example of what James Brothers have to offer is the difference between a headstone and a crematorium tribute. A headstone is a traditional memorial and the stone itself can be engraved or carved into a personal message or style to comfort people suffering from the loss. A crematorium tribute can be a keepsake for the family or close friends, which can be anything from a simple urn to something of similar size like a football or what might be personal for the friends or family involved to remember their loss by. James Brothers can be called on 01752 881 419 and any other information you may want to double check is on the James Brothers website at www.funeraldirectorsplymouth.org.uk. experts ROBERTS ELECTRICAL All domestic, commercial & industrial work undertaken.

DRESSMAKING AND ALTERATIONS, LOOSE COVERS AND CURTAINS, UPHOLSTERY PRIVATE LESSONS GIVEN PLEASE PHONE 01308 456249 You can have a stress-free wedding Whether your own or a loved ones, a wedding day is one of the most important days of our lives and it can bring a mountain of work and stress. But it needn’t be so bad, with a little preparation. A To-do list, with a timeline, can alleviate a lot of stress and help immensely with the planning of the big day. Friends and family will be more than happy to help with the planning, there is no need to shoulder all the work yourself and put more stress on yourself than is necessary! Deciding the music for your reception ahead of time will give you plenty of notice for your DJ or, to involve your guests more, why not include a suggestions note with your guests invitations offering them the chance to suggest songs (with some censorship on your part!). Deciding the colour scheme you want early on will be beneficial for both the decoration of the venue and for coordinating your bridesmaids/ page boys. When it comes to the wedding pictures, make a list of the ones you absolutely must have, this will save you having to worry about organisation on the day and will help the photographer avoid missing anyone out.

West Country Advertiser Issue 20 A trip to the cinema, eating Ice-cream on the promenade at Lyme Regis or going to see a musical may not be the things you would necessarily associate with living in a care home. At Eleighwater House Retirement Home, we try and make resident’s wishes come true. Just because you are in your twilight years, shouldn’t stop you enjoying some of the things you liked to do. Our resident’s regularly enjoy outings, craft days visits from the local school who we are linked with, The Archie Project to promote Dementia Awareness. The gardens are accessible to residents, with an abundance of plants, herbaceous borders and shrubs. Staff are on hand to accompany residents, for walks around the garden. There are many different areas to the garden, and during the year the colours are outstanding, from the winter snowdrops to the spring bulbs, and the blossoms on the trees through to the summer bedding plants, and hanging baskets and then the wonderful Autumnul colours, from the many species of trees surrounding us. We have a trio of Pekin Bantams living in the garden, you can see us if you look in the gallery Moving into a care home is one of the biggest decisions that you will make, before you do why not come and visit us and see what makes us so different. Telephone 01460 67532 to make an appointment. We look forward to meeting you.
