4 South Liverpool July - August 2013

Hello!

A very warm summer welcome to the second issue of

South Liverpool. The first issue got fantastic feedback,

so much so we extended distribution to the stands at

Moorfields and Parkway train stations and they were

literally flying off the stands.

We have launched a new responsive version of the

website. Now you can enjoy the magazine on any

device and access the great editorial with the fully

interactive responsive design,

Chrissy Adamou from Pink Flame is interviewing Sian

Welby the Channel 5 weather girl, so if you are not

hot already she should raise some temperatures! The

Whats On guide has details of South Liverpools most

colourful carnivals the Brazilica and Brouhaha which are

guaranteed to get us all moving and shaking through

the streets.

Summer is also a great time for BBQs but if food

cooked by a wannabe chef in an advanced state of

lager induced inebriation is not your cup of tea, then

you can find some guilty pleasure food at Free State

Kitchen.

Enjoy this second edition of South Liverpool and follow

us on facebook and really like us on twitter as we do

have feelings,

Thanks, Steve

Fashion

W

omen from all over

Liverpool are known

for their beauty and

flawless grooming.

With rollers in their hair as the

latest accessory trend perfect

for our seasonal downpours

and damp days. Its all about

the looking good syndrome

whatever the weather,

whatever the occasionor

not as the case may be.

Do you have it?

Its important to be both

fashion conscious and well

groomed if you are constantly

pictured in magazines.

Our ordinary scouse women

who are out doing the school

run day in day out, high

powered business women,

entrepreneurs, teachers and

other professionals seem

to be following in the same

footsteps more and more.

On many different levels from

the clothes they wear, the

make-up, the hair styling and

the nails!

We are all beginning to

realise the impact of the way

we look has on our lives. How

others see us influences us

but lets be true to ourselves

if we are happy in the skin we

are in and the clothes that

we wear then that should be

good enough. Be proud, be

happy, do what you want to

do when it comes to fashion.

Do you feel obsessed to

look chic sailing through the

supermarket or on your school

run? Or are you happy to

slip into your onesie and sail

through your daily errands

with a relaxed dont give a

toss attitude?

I know which I am and I am

happy!

The sale of hard oors has

increased over the past

few years; a lot of people,

(those with young children

with allergies) believe its a

healthier, cleaner way to live.

A study was carried out

over 15 years in Sweden

to investigate allergies and

carpets. What this research

found was when carpet

usage in Sweden decreased

by 70 percent, allergy

reactions in the general

population increased by 30

percent.

The reason for this? Well

carpets are like a giant lter

for airborne allergens, what

falls to the carpet - such as

allergens, common dust,

and other pollutants tends

to cling onto the carpet until

it is vacuumed up, unlike

hard oors that allow these

particles to re-circulate.

Findings show that

walking on hard surfaces

disturbed more particles

into the air. These particles

then became airborne and

enter the breathing zone

(especially in children that

are lower to the ground). In

contrast, carpeted surfaces

trapped more particles so

that walking disturbed fewer

particles.

Properly maintained

carpets lead to improved air

quality and a healthier indoor

environment!

So vacuum your carpets

regularly as this simple

procedure will improve

the quality of the air you

breathe, then as carpet

manufacturers recommend

- have them professionally

cleaned once a year.

Dirtbusters carpet cleaners

in Liverpool use natural

cleaning products that are

fully bio degradable. The

benet here is as well as

being completely non toxic,

your carpet will be free of any

soaps and residue that can in

turn attract dirt.

Are hard oors healthier than carpets?

Monsters University is the much anticipated follow

up to Pixars Monster Inc. Pixar delivers with the

amazing animation, witty script and lovable

familiar characters but it doesnt exceed

expectations. Theres no tear jerking

scene or memorable rib tickling lines,

this is no Despicable Me 2.

In the original Monsters Inc Mike and

Sulley are two lovable monsters who

live in a parallel universe linked to the

doors of kids bedrooms. When kids

scream, monsters harvest the energy

to power their national grid. Humans

are poisonous to monsters - which is

why their daredevil jobs as scarers

are so sought after.

In Monsters University Billy Crystal returns as Mike and

John Goodman returns as Sulley. They start off as sworn

enemies but learn how to work together to take part

in a scaring competition. How to work together is the

message of the film. Basically its a standard underdog

film. Theres some nice spoofing of rubbish horror films.

VERDICT

This film will do for kids but parents may be tempted to

use the 3D glasses to have a sneaky nap!

BY CHRISSY ADAMOU

ages though they were horrible,

just incase I needed them for

fancy dress! I did manage to throw

them out recently though and it

was a good feeling!

How would you describe your

relationship with fashion?

Im brave enough to try new

things, but sensible enough to

know when Ive made an error! I

wont buy something just because

everyone else is, I have to like it and

be in the mood.

Deep down Im a bit of a tom

boy, so I feel best when Im in a

pair of jeans, ballet pumps and a

T shirt, but if Im going out in the

evening I love to get the pins out

and embrace short dresses and mini

skirts. Youll never see me without

a pair of 4 inch heels on when Im

out....I feel wrong without a pair of

heels on in a bar!

If you could be any piece of clothing what

would you be and why?

Ha! That sounds like a Blind Date

question!!

Well Cilla, Id be that trusty pair

of black wedges. Im ready for

anything, I go with everything, I make

you feel comfortable and confident

and your wardrobe wouldnt be the

same without me!

Whats the first ever item of clothing you

bought on your own/for yourself?

A pair of denim pedal pushers

from Tammy Girl! Hahaha! I thought I

looked the bomb! *cringe*

What do you have in your wardrobe that

you just wont let go of?

Oh god Im awful! I find it very hard

to throw things away, even when

theyre falling apart. I held on to a

pair of bright pink spotty heels for

Get a compliment off a random guy about y

and its nice, but by a random girl and its amazing!



Whos your fashion idol? Why?

Right now its gotta be Cara

Delevigne. Ive always been

concious of my big, dark eyebrows

and blonde hair, but ever since she

came along Ive fully embraced

it! She seems like a bit of a Tomboy

and if I had a stylist Id love to copy

some of her looks. That whole I look

amazing but didnt try is what we

all want to achieve and she just

nails it.

How often do you buy new clothes?

Not often. Im a creative person,

so I have to be in the mood and

then when I am, I go out on a

mini mission and get a load of

new things all at once. I hate

shopping with other people, unless

its just casual browsing. I like to

be efficient and quick and then I

usually get some awesome outfits!

Sometimes I get a bit carried

away...Ive really got to stop buying

shoes!

Whats your favourite fashion accessory?

It has to be my new Daisy Knights

watch. I love a good watch and

this ones really rock and roll! I dont

really wear a lot of jewellery and I

live by the less is more motto, so for

me a decent watch is always an

essential accessory!

Would you let your partner/boyfriend

choose an outfit for you?

I would actually. From watching

shows like Dont tell the Bride Ive

realised that sometimes we just

dont give guys the credit they

deserve and that some lads have

a great eye for fashion. However

this doesnt apply to all men, some

really do not have a clue! I imagine

a lot of blokes imagining what they

think will look good, but in reality

its more shell-suit than Chanel and

youd come out of the changing

room looking like a prostitute! Haha!

I think most of us girls dress for

other girls to appreciate. Get a

compliment off a random guy

about your clothes and its nice, but

by a random girl and its amazing!

You feel like a true fashionista!!

Sloppy and comfy or dressed up and

ready to party?

Im one of those people who can

never really embrace being too

sloppy. I love being in my comfy

clothes and jogging bottoms, but

I dont like looking rough! Even

if its just a bit of foundation and

some mascara I like to always look

presentable. Im so quick at getting

ready, even on big nights out, that

I would say im fairly low maintance

and because putting on a bit of

slap is as quick and as basic as

brushing my teeth, I always think, I

can so I will.

The Age of the PHABLET?

T

ablets are fast becoming the device of choice for casual use at home

and are portable enough for work appointments. I regularly carry my

tablet to business appointments and would never consider a bulky

laptop now. The touch screen and ease of use on tablet devices are

particularly good for non technical users.

parents are both in their seventies and have recently bought a Kindle

Fire (strictly not a tablet I know) and despite being their first ever

step into the digital world they have learnt to use it in lightening

time and are already reading books, playing games and browsing

the web. Silver surfers would not have entertained a bulky laptop

or desktop PC to learn on as these would have been considered

too difficult especially with a mouse to content with.

Tablets are currently the pinnacle of mobile technology and with

their lightweight style and effortless touch screen usage it begs the

question of which device is going to suffer. The desktop PC will

always be in a league of its own as it is faster, more reliable and

can hold more data than a tablet can even dream of.

The mobile phone is evolving at a staggering rate but is limited by

its physical size, the Galaxy Note is probably as big as a phone can

comfortably get. Then there is the tablet which can do nearly everything

your phone can but better and with lovely HD screens.

So it appears that the laptop with its outdated fold up screen, rarely

touch screen usage, tiny mouse pad and need to be in an over the

shoulder manbag should be collecting its P45 and taking up its place in

silicon heaven with all the toasters.

A

s Liverpools reputation as an

energetic, interesting and

cultural city continues to

grow so to do the stature of many

of the events it plays host to. As

always, these events offer a diverse

range of things to do, meaning that

no one is missing out.

This summer, Liverpool holds a

number of exciting carnivals as the

whole city adopts the party spirit

and gets on its dancing shoes (or

carnival headdresses).

This includes Brazilica (12th-20th

July), who return with the UKs

biggest Samba carnival. With over

20 events split over a week, and

culminating in a city centre carnival

and night-time parade, Brazilica

offers something for everyone and

aims to celebrate the culture of

Brazil in style.

Another citywide party takes place

just a week after Brazilica (arent

we spoilt!) as the much loved, and

internationally famous, Brouhaha

(19th-28th July) takes place in its

biggest and boldest format yet.

As the ten day festival spreads to

more parts of the city, even more

people will be able to see the vast

array of musicians, dancers and

circus performers from every corner

of the world.

However, the undoubted pinnacle

of Brouhahas International Festival

takes place on Saturday 27th

July, with a jaw-dropping parade

through the city centre to Princes

Park, where they will be greeted by

an afternoon of culture, food and

live performances from all over the

world.

For those of us wanting something a

little calmer, this summer is a great

year for art exhibitions in Liverpool.

The two undoubted highlights are

Alive: In The Face Of Death, which

sees world renowned photographer

Rankin show his unrivalled talents at

the Walker Art Gallery, and Chagall:

Modern Master, the Tates display of

works by one of the greatest artists

of the last century.

The Brouhaha Carnival parade will lead to Princes Park with multicultural celebrations

featuring a family Circus Garden area with childrens workshops and a whole host of

diverse artistic performances. There will be international food stalls, Sound System Culture

- an interactive installation exploring the development of reggae Sound Systems in the

North of England. Plus for those in a sporting mood, Liverpool street handball demos and the

world renowned and Liverpool-based Airborn Academy will be on show in collaboration

with contemporary urban dance company Soul City from the Reunion Islands in the Indian

Ocean!

Lastly in collaboration with Milap we will host two Indian musicians Gaurav Mazumdar an

expert in Hindustani sitar music, tutored by the legendary Pandit Ravi Shankar and Kousic

Sen a versatile and popular percussionist who has performed alongside many leading

Indian Classical musicians and dancers as well as with ensembles performing a range

world music fusion.

2013 sees the Brouhaha Intl Festival bring a Global Carnival for a Global City with local,

regional, national and international participation, making this years event once again one

of the main highlights of Liverpools cultural calendar.

Liverpool continues to be inuenced by the presence and wealth of its diverse communities

with 2013 costume designs built on our understanding of the World in One City realised

through new costume designs by our carnivals artistic Director Ray Mahabir.

Costume designs are based on the four continents of Africa, Asia, the Americas and Europe

that when joined together create a Global Festival. Participating in our 2013 Carnival

will be costume sections from Liverpool, Sefton, Wirral and Halton as well as national

participation by carnival troupes from Preston, Hudderseld, and London. Also joining us

at this years festival and carnival will be international performing arts companies from

Germany, Martinique, the Netherlands, Hungary, Trinidad, Poland, Reunion Island, France,

Turkey and Ireland.

f any accessory can pick up an award as the most

needed item in a womans handbag this year I am pretty

sure the umbrella will win.

The weather must be the most spoken about topic

making the umbrella the most popular accessory (and

not through choice either) for 2013. With its wet,and often

unpredictable and least expected, downpours and grey

skies, the weather has managed to impinge on and

influence peoples moods just like a remote control.

But you know what I say turn on the smile if its sunny

and if its not go singing in the rain...!

or this months article, Im

going to focus on running. I

have been running for over 15

years, competing over various

distances from 3k to full marathon. I

have loved this sport since the age of

14. Most people often hate running

at school, but it always surprises how

many take it up later in life. Running is

free, can be done anytime, anywhere,

doesnt need equipment and doesnt

rely on others.

Regular participation will improve

fitness levels, manage or help you lose

weight, improve bone strength and

balance or alleviate stress levels. South

Liverpool has a vibrant running scene,

with many lovely parks to run around

(Sefton, Calderstones, Wavertree

Mystery, Clarkes Gardens, Camp Hill),

as well as Otterspool promenade. Our

local area also has many running clubs

(Liverpool Harriers, Mossley Hill, Penny

Lane Striders, Knowsley Harriers).

- Pace yourself, run as long as you can at a speed that is comfortable to you. There

is no shame in walking for a few mins, then trying again.

- Build up your distance slowly, week by week, you might only start with 10-15mins,

thats fine.

- Wear appropriate clothing and footwear, ideally garments that will keep you cool

and wick sweat away and wear running specific trainers (running or sports shops

are best).

- Make sure you drink plenty of water before and after and eat long enough

before, so you dont get a stitch and again after to replenish energy stores.

- Pick a 5km race out to work towards, then maybe 10km and half marathon.

TOP RUNNING TIPS



BY JACK STANLEY

G

ourmet takes on fast food classics

are all over the place down in

that London nowadays, with

the likes of Bubble Dogs and Dirty Burger

doing a roaring trade and Byron finally

making its first strides outside of the

capital. The same, however, cannot be

said for Liverpool.

All this could be changing.

Tucked away on one

of the many side streets

adjoining Hope Street

sits the newly opened

Free State Kitchen, a

scouse shrine to all the

best of Americas greed and gluttony.

This attitude to food is summed up by the

almighty Double Deluxe, a double-beef,

double-cheese mountain of a burger,

and the enormous jar of serve-yourself

pickles in the middle of the table. Withpickles in the middle of the table. With

other mains including the Clam Sam

(battered clams and seafood on a white

roll) and the Scooch (cured deli meats

and cheese on a ciabatta roll), the Free

State Kitchen team prove that theyve

got this whole American lark pretty much

cornered.

By this point, youll be far too full to even

contemplate dessert, but if you can

squeeze it in, the daily selection of cakes

and pies (including, if youre lucky, the

sinful Oreo cheesecake) and their ice

cream sundae of the day will make sure

youre looked after perfectly. In true

American style, theyre more than happy

to pack up leftovers for you to take home:

youll need it.

Despite all this

deserved talk of

their food, their

undisputed hidden

gem hasnt even

been mentioned.

Sheltered behind the buildings of Hope

Street, and through Free State Kitchens

large glass doors stands their secret

garden. The garden, complete with a

large lawn, a patio and even a watchful

statue of Jesus (a relic from the spacesstatue of Jesus (a relic from the spaces

old incarnation as a convent), provides

a welcome break from city-living. There

are few restaurants with a garden of this

calibre and, if we get the summer were

all hoping for, few better places to enjoy

a burger and a nice, cold beer.

The American Dream.

The garden, complete with a large

lawn, a patio and even a watchful

statue of Jesus provides a welcome

break from city-living.
