July: Why not, eh?
Golf is a fore letter word...:
Maybe we should be calling this the Fore! Word, as the area’s going to be the golfing focus of Europe when the
SCOTTISH OPEN comes to its new home at Castle Stuart by Nairn (7-10th). It’s looking unlikely that Rory McIlroy
will be taking part, but there’ll be plenty of the world’s best - and more visitors around than ever before - but that’s
just the start of a month that positively bursting at the seams with things to see and do. Aside from such treats as
the FORRES HIGHLAND GAMES, the CONTINENTAL MARKET in Elgin and the frankly painful Wildhearts WOLFTREK,
there’s big music events - like cover stars SIMPLE MINDS playing in Inverness, nu-folk queen LAURA MARLING up for
a Highland tour and, of course, the family-friendly fest that is BELLADRUM TARTAN HEART. Elsewhere you’ll find Big
Fat Electric going PLASTIC FANTASTIC, a SEASIDE SAFARI at Spey Bay, a talk on SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES and yet
more music from DOUGIE MACLEAN, PHILOMENA BEGLEY, OI POLLOI!, MICHAEL HAMPTON plus the LOSSIEMOUTH
FOLK FEST, ABBA tribute and more. We’ve a feeling it’s going to be rather a busy summer. Hold... and... GO!!!!...

CONCRETE POETRY IN BRAZIL &
SCOTLAND, Includes work by some
of the foremost concrete poets.
Concrete poetry developed through
the 60s & 60s - conventional poetic

languages. In this it is inherently
international in outlook. h-i-c-a.org

SPEYFEST: Fochabers, Tue 26 - Sun 31 Jul
At the end of July the Playing Fields on East Street in the Moray town of Fochabers will be home to the 16th
annual Speyfest weekend, 4 days and nights of the best in traditional and contemporary celtic music. Once again this
FOLK/TRAD:
year’s festival is a mix of seated concerts and standing gigs, five hours of music at the Festival Night on Sat 30 Jul, the
music marathon that is the Survivors Ceilidh, a Craft Fair and the Festival Club. The line-up features the biggest names
from the world of Scottish music alongside international acts from the USA and Finland. All the events are “undercover”
and the festival site is fully licensed offering a wide range of refreshments in the Beer Tent as well as hot food from a
number of on-site concessions.
Building on the success of the more intimate concerts at previous Speyfests, the festival begins with “In Session” Nights
at The Fochabers Institute. Tuesday sees BRIAN MCNEILL with his audio/visual presentation, Back O’ The North Wind.
Using five instruments and hundreds of pictures projected onto a screen, Brian brings together music, story and
visual image to tell the tale of six Scots who emigrated, over the last two hundred and fifty years, to North America.
Wednesday features two hugely talented multi-instrumentalists, MAIREARAD GREEN (accordion/pipes) and ANNA
MASSIE (guitar/fiddle/banjo) while CACHD-ACH-CRUAIDH will be performing at Thursday’s session night with their
mix of rock and roll classics and Celtic Rock anthems.
Throughout the festival there will be an opportunity for people to get together and join in with the music sessions in
the Speyfest Pub and exchange or learn a new tune or two or even sing a song.
Tickets for this year’s festival are now on sale through www.thebooth.co.uk. The ticket caravan will be open in the
evenings from Monday 4th July at the Fochabers Public Institute. Concession tickets are available for many of the
events at this year’s festival. The reduced prices are available to the over 60’s and the under 18’s. In addition, entry to
Thursday’s opening concert, the Friday concert and the survivors ceilidh on Sunday is free to children aged 12 and
under when accompanied by an adult.
2011 Line up includes: EDDI READER, DUNCAN CHISHOLM and friends, The Chair, Skerryvore, Shona Donaldson,
Anna Massie and Mairearad Green, Tsuumi Sound System, Babelfish, Tyde, Breabach, Brian McNeill, Saltfishforty,
Dr Mango and The Chickpeas, RURA, Ceòlan, The Hot Seats, The Fochabers Fiddlers, Cachd-ach-Cruaidh and Tour

for all the family, from archery to crochet the emphasis is on
the aforementioned field sports with competitions in fly
casting, gun dog handling and clay pigeon shooting. Take
your pets for the day and children can enter them into the
children’s pets parade or, if you have a terrier, try out the
terrier races. Activities in the main ring differ from year to
year but you may see gun dog or fly-casting demonstrations,
pipe bands, falconry displays, and much more.

Running with
Wolves
WICKED WOLF TRIATHLON:
Carrbridge, Sat 23 Jul
No real wolves back in the Highlands just yet, but a couple of different events with
that name and a clue as to where the moniker comes from. Testing your limits in the
loveliest of locations. It begins with a 5km kayak (2km longer than last year) from the
beach at Lochindorb, around the 13th century ruined castle – lair of the notorious Wolf
of Badenoch. From there it’s a spectacularly scenic 30km mountain bike ride over the
Lochindorb moor towards Carr-bridge – taking in amazing views of the Cairngorms –
then a 10km run around the pretty woodlands of Carr-Bridge with a finale finish in the
heart of the village. People can enter either as a team of three – doing one section each
– or they can sign up as a solo entry. Places are limited to 55 entries so anyone who
fancies taking part had better sign up sharpish.

WILDHEARTS WOLFTREK:
Forres to Cairngorm Mountain, Sat 06 & Sun 07 Aug
More lupine character building with one of our favourite events, now in its fourth year.
Participants will have just 24 hours to complete a stunning 45 mile route from Forres to
Cairngorm Mountain, with the added thrill of crossing the remote Dava Moor, another
legendary home of the aforementioned Wolf of Badenoch, this time doing so under
cover of darkness. Created by Forres based charity WildHearts, the WolfTrek route has
been designed to take participants through a microcosm of Highland wilderness, packed
with diverse terrain, landscapes and wildlife. Whilst the most adventurous will have the
opportunity to tackle the whole 45 mile trek, the challenge has also been broken down
into three, 15 mile stages, which can be tackled as a team relay effort. There is also an
option to sample a “bite-sized” 17 mile version of the trek by completing the Midnight
March, from Forres to the shores of ghostly Lochindorb. WildHearts provide micro-loans
and business training to people living in poverty in the developing world, enabling them
to work their own way out of poverty. Once one WildHearts micro-client repays their loan,
that money is then lent out to another member of their community. 01309 678115

Making The Most Of You:
<<< Comfortable In Your Own (slightly darker) Skin...
There’s nothing quite like a glowing, natural-looking tan to make you look and feel great. If you aren’t
lucky enough to be heading somewhere sunny this summer then treat yourself to a professional
fake tan for a flawless finish.
There are lots of options available now - but the quickest is a spray tan which is applied in less than
15 minutes in a special booth that means your tan is dry instantly and develops in less than 8 hours.
For summer 2011 the trend is about a “Hyper-Real” spray tan. This can be achieved by starting with
a very natural base tan that develops with your own skin tone such as St Tropez or Sienna. Products
such as a matching tan intensifier can then be layered onto the skin to provide an airbrushed look.
If you fancy DIY tanning at home here are my top 10 tips to ensure your tan is perfectly gorgeous for
as long as possible:
1. If you’re a fake tan addict, you need to tan detox to remove the build-up that can produce an uneven
result.
2. If you’re waxing or shaving before tanning, you need to do it more than 24hrs beforehand.
3. The night before tanning use a good non oily body scrub to remove dead skin.
4. The most common cause of a patchy tan is dry skin, so it’s very important to moisturise any dry areas
immediately prior to tanning.
5. Wear latex gloves or use a tan applicator mitt when applying your tan to avoid orange palms. Once
you have finished mix a little self-tan with moisturiser to tan the back of your hands.
6. Make sure you don’t rub in your tanning lotion or gradual tanner. Just smooth over all areas ensuring
you are well covered.
7. While your tan is developing, wear loose, dark clothes and avoid tight fitting underwear to prevent
rubbing the tan off
8. Try to avoid washing your hands for at least 2 hours after you had finished.
9. After your development time has passed, rinse in the shower without using shower gel till the water
runs clear and pat dry.
10. Maintain your tan by using the matching range of products for best results. The hands and face
will fade quicker than the rest of the body so reapply to these areas after a few days to keep your tan
looking flawless or use a gradual tan to top-up. Moisture is key to ensure your tan fades evenly so use
an un-perfumed body lotion every day.

“The Imaginarium of Cookery”
I MET A SAD LOBSTER
A FEW YEARS AGO...
I asked him whats wrong.
He said “There’s no purpose in my life...
I think I’ll start worshipping God as
I want to be a born again crustacean”!
Lobster with Green Beans
and Citrus Dressing
Lobster is a valued food product; well-known
recipes include Lobster Newberg and Lobster
Thermidor. Lobster is best eaten fresh, and they
are normally purchased live. Lobsters are usually
shipped and sold with their claws banded to
prevent them from injuring each other or the
purchaser. Lobsters cannot open and close the
claws when they are banded, which causes the
claws to begin to atrophy inside the shell. Recently
banded lobsters will not show this, and the claws
will be full. Many restaurants that serve lobster
keep a tank of the live creatures, often allowing
patrons to pick their own.
Lobsters are generally prepared and cooked while
they are still alive, even though both claws may
have been removed. Most cooks place the live
lobster into a pot of boiling water or steam which
kills it. Lobsters are also served fried, grilled, or
baked
The majority of the meat is in the tail and the two
front claws, but smaller quantities can be found
in the legs and torso. Lobster can be boiled or
steamed, or used in a wide array of dishes and
salads. It can be served as soup or bisque or mixed
with mayonnaise or salad dressing for lobster rolls.
Lobster meat is often dipped in clarified butter,
resulting in a sweetened flavor.
26
John McCruden, Chapter One, Forres
INGREDIENTS:
2 small live lobster about 500g each
20g sea salt 400g fine green beans
100g watercress
100ml citrus and red pepper vinaigrette
500g grated fresh parmesan cheese
200ml white wine sauce
1 red onion finely sliced 25ml olive oil
METHOD:
First put the lobster in the freezer for about 30 minutes to make
them sleepy. When ready to cook, make sure you kill them
quickly: The simplest way to do this is detach the head from the
body as fast as possible. Pull the claws from the body and set
aside. Discard the head.
Clean the body by removing the swim bladder, which is attached
to the middle tail section. Put on a large pan containing at least 3
liters of water on to boil and add salt. Drop in the lobster bodies
and claws and boil allowing 3 ½ minutes for the tails and up to
5 minutes for the claws. Remove and cool a little. Pull the shells
from the bodies, it is best to do this while they are still warm.
Crack the claws with the back of a heavy cook’s knife. Then you
should be able to pull off the shell in two parts and extract the
meat in one piece. Set aside.
Meanwhile take a large pan of boiling water add sea salt add
green beans and cook for 1 minute, refresh in cold water. In a
frying pan heat olive oil and fry sliced red onion, add green beans
and toss. Add white wine sauce and freshly grated parmesan
cheese. Arrange in centre of serving dish. Cut the lobster tail into
medallions and place on top. Drizzle with citrus and red pepper
vinaigrette. Top with watercress and drizzle over more dressing.

This breathless biopic tells the true story of
notorious Milanese gangster Renato Vallanzasca,
who along with best friend Enzo and their gang, the
feared Banda Della Comasina, became the scourge
of Milan in the 70’s and 80s. Loosely based on
Vallanzasca’s own books, the film tears through his
career in a flurry of bank robberies, kidnappings
and prison breaks and Kim Rossi Stuart, is hugely
impressive in the central role as the charismatic
Vallanzasca.
Winner: Silver Bear for Best Screenplay at Berlin Film
Festival 2009. Returned from duty after suffering an
injury, Sgt. Will Montgomery is paired up with by-the-book
veteran Captain Tony Stone. The men are tasked with the
unenviable job of notifying the families of soldiers who’ve
died in service. This already difficult job becomes
complicated when Montgomery breaks the rules and
starts a relationship with a newly widowed wife of an
officer. As Will’s emotional detachment dissolves, the film
reveals itself as a surprising, humorous, moving and very
human portrait of grief, friendship and survival.

How Good Is Good Enough?
How Bad Is Too Bad?
Many people, while admitting they have sinned, think that they are
still good enough to go to Heaven on their own merits.
Others think they have sinned so much that they are too bad to go to
Heaven.
How good is good enough?
Just how good does a person have to be to earn eternal
life? According to God’s standard (the only standard
that really counts) a person would have to live an
absolutely perfect life to earn eternal life. Not one lie;
not one bad thought; not one disrespectful word to
their parents, etc. Perfect.
Do you think you have fulfilled and maintained this
strict standard? Romans 3:19 says, “...what things soever
the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law:
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world
may become guilty before God.” You see we have all
broken God’s law and the whole world stands guilty
before God! No one can argue that they have lived a
perfect life. No one … not you, not me, no one.
We don’t like to think about it, but it’s true …we all have
sinned – broken God’s law (Romans 3:10, 23). We have
ALL offended a holy God, who will by no means pass
by sin.
How bad is too bad?
Maybe you think you have sinned so much that there is
no forgiveness for you. God is Holy, but He loves to
forgive. God loves you and is not willing that any
should perish. He showed his love toward us in that
“while we were yet sinners Christ died for us” (Romans
5:8).
To those who turn from their sin and receive Jesus
Christ as their Saviour and Lord, He assures us, “I will
forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no
more” (Jeremiah 31:34). . We do not have to go to that
place of torment which the Lord Jesus calls hell.
So, none are without sin, but none are without hope,
either. The Lord wants “all men to be saved, and to come
unto the knowledge of the truth.” (1 Timothy 2:4). A
sinner in Bible times asked the question “What do I have
to do to be saved?” The answer was simple, yet profound,
“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be
saved.” (Acts 16:31).
On the cross of Calvary, Jesus Christ was satisfying the
just demands of God’s law against sinners - He was made
sin that we might, through him, be made righteous. In
order for God to no longer see us as guilty hell-deserving
sinners, and fit us for heaven, we each need by faith to
personally accept that Christ died in our place. God’s
redeeming love for sinners is found only in Christ,
and the sinner is out of Christ.
Put your trust in the finished work (death, burial, and
resurrection) of the Lord Jesus Christ, and God will save
you by faith in His Son and give you the gift of the Holy
Spirit to enable you to live for Him and know Him as your
Lord.“...if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Romans
10:9). Be done with your pride and bow your knee to the
Lord Jesus. Only when a sinner turns from his sin and
bows to Jesus as Lord and Saviour, can he have eternal
life.
No matter how good you think you are or how bad
you think you are, the Lord saves all those who come
to Him in faith. The Lord Jesus says “ him that cometh to
Me I will in no wise cast out” (John 6:37).
Reject Him no longer. Eternity in Hell is a long
time to remember that you rejected Christ.
NO ONE IS SO GOOD THAT THEY DON’T NEED TO BE SAVED.
NO ONE IS SO BAD THAT THEY CAN’T BE SAVED.
”
“The Scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by
faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.” Galatians 3:22
