So I just realized that David and I pretty much forgot about this pretty sizable project. While there was little effort involved on our side (this was not a DIY job!), there was a considerable dent in our wallet afterwards. We've had so much craziness going on with the wall lately, that there wasn't enough space in our minds to think about this.
Earlier in the year, we wrote THIS POST about discovering some wet drywall in the ceiling of one of our guest bedrooms, and how we identified where the moisture came from.
Long story short, the roofer we had come out to look at the roof and identified that the chimney was the culprit, not the roof:

The BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy is a full time, three-year single honours programme that integrates theory and clinical practice. The aim is to develop high levels of academic and professional competence, preparing you for working as a physiotherapist fit for the future, contributing to public health and health promotion as well as in co-developing personalised, patient-centred approaches to care and treatment. Promoting interprofessional working is a central concept across the programme and in practice.
The programme aims to develop you as an effective, safe, autonomous health professional, who is able to work flexibly in the changing context of health and social care, applying leadership skills and technology as appropriate.
You will be encouraged to be proactive and innovative, taking responsibility for your own learning during the three years at the university and your continuing professional development thereafter. Fundamental to your development as an effective practitioner will be your ability to draw on varied sources of evidence and clinical reasoning, skilfully applying the principles that underpin physiotherapy practice and the ability to transfer learning to other practice contexts. Interprofessional experiences will allow you to explore the roles of other health and social care colleagues to understand not just the service users' journey, and that of carers in different contexts, but also recognising the importance of optimal services/agency integration.
Physiotherapy is a science based profession which aims to empower individuals to maximise their quality of life by restoring, maintaining and improving function and movement. With service users' needs at the heart of care, engagement with physical approaches is promoted to optimise health and wellbeing and prevent illness. Physiotherapy is an innovative service and is founded on a strong, evolving evidence base and deploys its skills to meet user needs across all sectors and in all health and social care settings.
Canterbury Christ Church University has a well-respected, long-standing reputation for delivering interprofessional education to support you in developing interprofessional working skills. You will be joining other health professional students which can help you establish a professional network for life. Christ Church has extensive knowledge, understanding and considerable success in health professional education programmes. We have validated two highly regarded professional programmes in subject areas new to the University over recent years, and you will join past students as pioneers for our new BSc Hons in Physiotherapy programme.
As the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists states, 'becoming a physiotherapist means you can play a key role in enabling people to improve their health, wellbeing and quality of life. There are many future directions for you as a physiotherapist.'
Our Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and Chartered Society of Phsiotherapy (CSP)-approved physiotherapy programme has been developed in collaboration with other internationally recognised institutions.
Successful completion of this programme provides eligibility to apply for registration with the HCPC and full membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy.
Our BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy programme meets the requirements of the UK HCPC (the Regulatory Body) and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists (the Professional Body). On successful completion of the programme, you will be eligible to apply to the HCPC as a physiotherapist; this is the same for all UK HCPC-registered programmes.
You will study an integrated mix of theory and practice, with academic learning at University and professional practice in a variety of placement settings in Kent and at times other sites in the south east of England. Clinical placement constitutes a minimum of 1000 hours, with increasingly autonomous practice as your knowledge, skills and understanding develop through the programme. During your third year, there may be an opportunity for a 1-2 week international experience, or to experience a completely different health/care/wellbeing setting in the UK.
Physiotherapy practice is evolving and the programme will include an introduction to musculo-skeletal ultrasound scanning and the use and development of assistive technologies. Christ Church has a national reputation for medical ultrasound imaging and a very successful interprofessional Postgraduate Certificate in Mmusculo-skeletal Uultrasound imaging which you may find a useful for your future studies and practice. We work closely with clinicians who have expertise in assistive technologies and supporting service users in their use.
In year one you will engage in 5 campus-based modules and one practice-based work placement. The content of these modules introduce you to the expectations of a health professional's role, values, and scope of practice, as well as foundation studies relevant to physiotherapy, including anatomy, physiology, human movement, the sources and use of evidence, biopsychosocial aspects of health and wellbeing and appropriate clinical skills.
Working with fellow students and using clinical simulation learning will help you prepare for clinical placements, allowing you to practise skills and reflect on your learning. Clinical (practice) educators will assess your practice skills on placement and we work closely with these practice educators in supporting your learning. You will need to pass all modules before you can progress into Year 2 of the programme.
Building on Year 1 content, you will have 5 campus-based modules and two practice placements. During the second year you will apply your learning on the physiotherapist's role in health promotion and overall wellbeing, enhancing assessment skills and applying clinical reasoning, reflect on and begin to evaluate the use of different technologies in practice and develop your leadership skills in practice. You will further refine your knowledge of physiotherapy treatment and practices that aim to benefit and support service users/carers; develop a global understanding of physiotherapy practice that are evidence based and sustainable. Clinical simulation, reflection on practice and learning in practice settings will continue and you will be expected to apply your theoretical learning to practice and have your experiences in practice inform your learning.
You will have 5 campus-based modules, and two practice placements. Module content includes the management of complex conditions, business skills, enterprise and innovation, and developing and writing a research proposal. During Year 3 you may have a 1-2 week international opportunity relevant to practice, or can use this time to experience a different area of practice within the UK which may be close to home or further afield.
Within Year 3 modules, you will reflect on and apply your learning from Years 1 and 2, and using the research evidence base will build on evaluating, integrating and co-developing therapeutic approaches relevant to individuals or groups, carers, UK health and care services delivery generally, as well as the global contexts of health and wellbeing. Within one module you will be introduced to musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging (this does not provide you with a qualification and there is a Postgraduate Certificate route for those who would like to study further). You will continue in Clinical Simulation and in practice to refine your leadership skills and application of your evidence based knowledge for the benefit of individuals, carers and service provision. Your research proposal will be an area you choose in collaboration with your research supervisor and will be focused on an area relevant to contemporary physiotherapy practice.
There are no optional modules in this programme
Physiotherapists' career pathways include:
Tuition fees for all courses are payable on an annual basis, except where stated.
Please read the 2020/21 Tuition Fee Statement for further information regarding 2020/21 tuition fees and year on year fee increases.
Overseas students, please note that there will be an additional fee per year of study for placement costs. The cost for 2020/21 will be confirmed soon. You will also be required to fund your own travel and accommodation costs.
Although we aim to minimise any additional costs to students over and above the course tuition fee, there will be some additional costs which students are expected to meet.
All students on this course are required to gain student membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy. The fee for this membership entitles you to a reduced registration fee when you graduate. Find out more at www.csp.org.uk.
Practice Placements are an essential part of the programme. It is highly likely there will be additional costs incurred for travel and accommodation related to attending practice placements. Students will be expected to budget for these prior to engaging with and throughout the programme.
Information and estimated cost projections for attending local placements can be found here (please note information is based on estimates taken for the year 2018).
The University's general principles policy for additional course fees are set out here
The following table sets out the general principles which apply to courses at Canterbury Christ Church University.
This varies depending on the Course - please refer to individual course webpages for further information about additional costs of travel and accommodation for placements.
Purchase of own text books
Data & Barring Service (DBS) Checks
Occupational Health Checks
For programmes that qualify, the CCCU Advantage Package currently includes:
Uniform (appropriate to the programme of study) and a placement badge are provided free of charge at the start of the course. If students wish to replace any item of uniform or secure additional items of uniform during the course (e.g. because it has been damaged or no longer fits) then they must order and pay for this directly with the supplier. There are certain exceptions to this, for example if the student becomes pregnant and requires maternity uniform. These exceptions are detailed in the faculty uniform policy here. Students will need to purchase suitable footwear for practice. NHS Trusts require shoes (not trainers) that meet health and safety requirements. Advice will be given by the lecturers on what to purchase after you have enrolled on your course.
In addition to this, health students can apply and may be eligible for other University awards. Please visit our Scholarships, Bursaries and Financial Support page to find out what's available.
Please note: This Package is only available for students who are enrolling on a qualifying health programme in September 2020 on one of the qualifying programmes. We reserve the right to withdraw this package in the event of a student not successfully completing the enrolment process.
You will be taught using a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials and practicals including Clinical Simulation. You will need to prepare in advance for teaching sessions as we commonly use a 'flipped classroom' approach, which research evidence and our own experience indicates is effective in helping students learn and apply to future working.
The timetable will be subject to variations. However, as a guide, this is a full-time programme and campus-based learning will occur on 3 to 4 days a week. Practice Placements will occur over an averaged 37.5 hour per week working schedule, but these will occur in line with the requirements of the provider responsible for your placement (ie shift working, long days, weekend working).
Seminars will enable you to discuss and develop your understanding of topics covered in lectures and reflections in practice. In addition, you will meet with your academic personal tutor formally once a semester which you can use to discuss your progress, academic, professional or personal.
You will need to prepare for your taught sessions in advance and continue expanding your knowledge and skills base through self-study. Typically, this involves using the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE, BlackBoard). This will carry materials to guide your studies.
Your studies will include reading journal articles, textbooks and some specific works, undertaking online searches or spending time researching in the library, working on group or individual projects and preparing for module assignments/examinations, workshops and seminars.
Your module handbooks and module leaders will direct you towards specific readings and/or activities, pre- and/or post-session.
For the Research Proposal in Year 3, you will undertake independent research that is aligned to your particular areas of interest. You will be supervised by a member of the teaching team and will meet with your supervisor regularly. Your elective placement (international or UK), will be organised by you, with support from the teaching staff. This will require you to familiarise yourself with all relevant information to ensure you have a successful placement experience.
Your overall workload typically consists of 50 hours of directed study and 150 hours independent study for each module, normally 10 hours per week of student effort per 20 credit module. Assessments vary and are directly related to module learning outcomes and these in turn directly align with HCPC education and proficiency standards and Chartered Society of Physiotherapists requirements.
The practice modules will meet professional body requirement of a minimum of 1000 clinical hours. You will need to allow time to reflect on each day's learning in practice and review the relevant evidence base for practice: this will average two hours per practice day.
The team consists of appropriately qualified academics and practice-based sessional lecturers and all have the necessary range of expertise and experience.
Many of our team members hold a Master's degree and teaching qualifications and a majority are HCPC-registered practitioners. A number of the staff are research-active. All have experience in delivering research-informed evidence based content. Postgraduate students sometimes assist in teaching and assessing some modules. However, experienced academics teach the greater majority of lectures and seminars.
You can find out more about the current teaching on our meet the team webpage. Please note that members of the teaching team may change.
The programme's assessments will meet the attainment requirements of the HCPC and Professional Body, enabling you, on successful completion of your programme to be eligible to apply for registration with the UK HCPC as a physiotherapist.
There are formative opportunities for you to test your knowledge and understanding of subject matter and assessment requirements before completing the formal assessments where marks count towards your final module mark. You will normally receive feedback, verbal or written, depending on the assessment, from your tutor on formative work.
Assessment formats vary according to the module requirements, but will allow you to demonstrate you can meet the module learning outcomes. These assessments will include written and computer-based assessments, practical examinations, written assignments and presentations either undertaken individually or in groups.
Assessment in practice is continuous; your practice educators (PE) will observe your progress and provide both informal and formal feedback in your practice learning document. If there are concerns about your progress, a member of the team will hold a meeting at the practice placement that will include you and your PE, to negotiate next steps for your practice development. You are required to pass all elements of the programme, including practice, to be eligible to apply for registration as a physiotherapist with the UK HCPC.
Campus-based assessment is defined as any work not undertaken as part of your practice placement.
You must achieve a mark of 40% minimum in all components of all modules to pass. Please bear in mind that practice placement is asssessed on a Pass/Fail basis only.
You must pass all components (placement and campus-based assessments) before you can progress to the next year.
Practice-based assessment consisting of a single placement opportunity with a Pass/Fail grade awarded by the end of the module
To be comprised of written- and computer-based assessments, practical assessment and written assignments
Practice-based assessment consisting of two distinct placement opportunities with a Pass/Fail grade awarded by the end of the module
Practice-based assessment of two distinct placement opportunities with a Pass/Fail grade awarded by the end of the module
You will receive feedback, either verbal and/or written, on all practice assessments and on formal coursework assessments undertaken. Feedback is intended to help you develop your learning, in particular, applying this to your future modules. You are encouraged to discuss with your personal and/or module tutors.
We aim to provide you with feedback on assessments within 15 working days of hand-in, subject to circumstance. Review with your practice educator is at mid and end of your practice learning period. At the mid point of your practice learning period, we provide assessment to help you learn, and at the end of this period, we will provide assessment of your learning.
A strong GCSE background at grade C / new GCSE grade 4 or above is essential, to include English and maths. Level 4 and above in GCSE science is desirable.
A level grades should be ABB, and should include at least one of the following subjects: biology, human biology, anatomy & physiology, sports science. In keeping with widening participation, non-standard applicants will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
A strong commitment to undertaking a physiotherapy programme would need to be demonstrated through evidenced time spent in a relevant professional health and wellbeing setting with a physiotherapy presence, for example: community service, hospital, Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), private practice or sports clinic. Examples of such committment could include voluntary work, workplace shadowing or relevant work experience.
Recruitment for this course considers not only the values of the specific profession you are wishing to join, but also the values of the wider NHS. You can expect to be shortlisted and interviewed based upon these values as well as course/profession specific requirements. More information on values can be found here.
Offers of a place can only be made after a successful interview and are subject to satisfactory health clearance (occupational health check) and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
For more information about occupational health checks, please click here for FAQs and see here for a full guide to immunisation, screening and health clearance.
For more information about DBS checks, please click here.
You must pass all components of the programme to be eligible to apply to the UK HCPC to register as a physiotherapist and apply for full membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy.
The BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy is accredited and approved by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) respectively. Successful completion of this programme provides eligibility to apply for registration with the HCPC and full membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy.
Our Clinical Simulation Suites provide an excellent opportunity to practice a variety of your physiotherapy skills in preparation for practice settings and this will also allow you to explore more complex scenarios in 'safe' conditions before applying your learning in the clinical setting.
The introduction to musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging, a specialist area for Christ Church, will provide you with a useful introduction and can lead into a post graduate physiotherapy specialism, as will the involvement of practice colleagues in technologies relevant to physiotherapy co-production with service users and with assistive technologies.

Are tourists destroying tourism?
The ones Bob Menconi saw on the lido deck of the Celebrity Solstice were — one heaping plateful at a time.
At the megaship's all-you-can-eat buffet lunch, they piled slices of pizza, grilled fish and coconut Flan on their trays like it was their last meal. "I was amazed," says Menconi, who owns a framing business in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. "It was to the point where it was falling off the side. It was the dumbest thing."
Dumb on more than one level, actually.
It's not just that the passengers had as many shots at the buffet line as they wanted. It's that the morsels going overboard collectively represented a titanic waste of resources, which must have been more than a little embarrassing for a cruise line that prides itself on its environmental record. Not only did these passengers leave their manners and common sense on shore; they were also selfish gluttons.
What is it with travelers today?
You can't make this stuff up. But are these tourists sinking an entire industry? The correct answer is: they are — and they aren't.
No, not all travelers. Most of us still pack our sound judgment and good manners when we go on vacation. And most of us will continue to do so, especially after reading this column.
But there are a few annoying exceptions, and they're hurting travel in ways you probably don't know. Here are five types of travelers who fit that category:

I'm almost 47 years old. 47. You'd think I would have figured out who I am and what my calling is by now. I mean, really, I'm on the downhill slide to 50. To my children, and their friends, this is old.
I mean, I know what I like…favorite foods, movies and stuff like that. Stuff… I know… that's a lazy word in the writing world, but it describes what I mean here… meaning, you know: everything else. Forgive me, you literary critics out there.
The truth is, I'm just learning, now, over this period of the last 3 to 4 years, what it means to be me, and how to be true to myself and how, if I don't work at living it out, with discipline, my soul is going to continue to ache. As it has been for many years.
Here's the gist. I'm a wife (married to my high school sweetheart), mother (four wonderful children – ages 23-17), sister to 4 siblings to a nurturing mother and father. I can't complain about finances and my possessions. I have a good job, though stressful at times, as a literacy coach. Overall, I'm comfortable. 90 percent of the people in this world are praying for the life I have.
So, why this ache?
That's the rub. Cravings. My soul craves so much. It feels so much. I'm one of those "highly sensitive persons" as Elaine N.. Aron describes in her book. I have just now discovered this. All these years, thinking something was wrong with me. But that's not all.
I crave to create. It feeds my soul. When I can't, I'm unbearable. My creations through writing and art transform my feelings and emotions into something concrete. A channel of life through me onto the page. If I can't do this, I seem to create this drama in my life. Ughh. I feel too much more. Things hurt more.
I've sought out much guidance over the last few years in order to steer the sails. Through books, therapists, workshops from amazing people, my journey through my own creations of writing, art journaling and photography, along with reflections through personal experiences, I am amazed at how much I continue to learn about this plan the Universe has for me.
And, I need to share it. Because it's so daunting. So awesome. Just awesome.
Again, another writing lazy word. . . but, it just fits. What other word replaces awesome?
Shari Lynn 🙂

This is a first for me in this blog series. Person To Person is a live album, and I'm curious if it might've been a better experience had I chosen a live album by a band I was more familiar with. If only because I'd have a fuller understanding of the studio incarnations of the tunes and could view the live versions through that prism.
But here I am, listening to a concert album from 1976. It's not a bad record. It certainly shows that the band could easily recreate the magic funk they had done so well in the studio. And as almost all live shows do, it gives the band room to breathe on all their tracks, giving longer spaces for the various band members to solo.
This is shown most effectively in the band's best-known song, "Pick Up The Pieces." The version on this album is notable for a couple reasons. First, it runs over 18 minutes long. Even on live albums, very few current bands would bother putting an 18 minute song on their record. The length of this tune kind of betrays its age, back when people would want to listen to an instrumental for this long.
It's not that it's a bad song, it's just really long. You've got to be in a very specific zone to jam out to an instrumental piece for that long. Bands in the '70s loved letting their songs loose in this long form kind of way. Led Zeppelin, Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead. But I was a little surprised to find a band like Average White Band, not commonly categorized as a "jam" band, doing the same thing.
The other interesting thing about this song is that it is actually culled together from several different live shows on this tour. Since it features several members doing solos, they recorded several different shows and each member was able to choose the specific solo they wanted to featured from a specific show. It's all spliced together and sounds fluid enough that I wouldn't have noticed had I not uncovered it in doing research.
But there are parts of this album that could've been tightened. I would've rather heard another original cut from the band than a 10-minute cover of "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" to close the album out. The long cuts of "T.L.C." and "Pick Up The Pieces" also could've been shortened and left more room for other songs.
There are some awesome tunes on here though too. "Cloudy" and "If I Ever Lose This Heaven" are both slices of almost Bee Gees-level tightness in the soul/pop arena, and "I'm The One" and "Love Your Life" both have sample-ready horn parts (Exhibit A: A Tribe Called Quest's "Check The Rhime"). But ultimately I'm left with the feeling that I'd enjoy the studio versions a bit more. A little more palatable than 18 minutes of the same song.
Top 3 Tunes:
- If I Ever Lose This Heaven
- I'm The One
- Love Your Life

Forearm pain is common in people who type on a computer for a large part of the day as this puts pressure on the wrist and forearm. Another common cause of forearm pain is swinging a tennis racket or golf club repeatedly. Without treatment, slight forearm pain can develop into a more severe form of tendinitis or carpal tunnel syndrome. By stretching the forearm, you may be able to relieve the tension in the muscle and prevent a more serious condition from occurring.
Upright Wrist Flexor Stretch
This stretch is most effective for golfers who experience soreness on the inside of the elbow at the very top of the forearm. It works by helping to extend the muscles on the rear side of the forearm.
To complete this stretch, follow the steps below:
- While standing, extend your arms out to the front of you
- Get your fingers to face forward by bending the right wrist upward
- Put pressure on your right hand using your left palm
- Hold the stretch for about 30 seconds
- Repeat with your left wrist
Upright Extensor Stretch
This stretch easy to fit into your day because it can be completed anytime you are standing. Make sure you are standing up straight with your arms at your sides and your shoulders back for proper posture. Then, bend back both of your wrists at the same time until your fingers are pointing behind you, but still parallel with the floor. Continue the stretch by bending your wrists forward until your fingers are pointing to the front of you.
Wrist Rotation Stretch
Rotating the wrist helps improve the circulation of blood to not only the wrists, but the hands and forearms as well. It also helps to prevent future injury by increasing the range of motion of your wrists. To complete the stretch, hold your arms out in front of you and form your hands into fists. Rotate your wrists to the inside and turn them in circles. Then, rotate the wrists to the outside and make circles again.
Assisted Forearm Stretch
This stretch is similar to the wrist flexor stretch in that you use one arm to help the stretching of the other arm. For this stretch, complete the following procedure:
- Put your right arm in front of you and level with the floor
- Face your right palm to the ceiling
- Hold your right palm with your left hand by wrapping your left thumb around the right thumb and the fingers around the thumb side of the palm
- Bend the right hand to face forward
- Hold the stretch for 30 seconds
- Repeat the stretch on the left arm
All of these stretches, when done consistently and properly, will help improve the range of motion and strengthen the muscles in your forearm and wrist.

We, Johnny, Kate, Andrew, Makena, & Butterfly, originally from Texas, moved to Kenya in January, 2005. (Emma and Éowyn were born here).
Why would we do that?!
To bring a Future and a Hope to those who have lost it: the poor, destitute, lonely, ostracized, sick, and needy people we find in Kenya.
We help many people here in Nakuru, Kenya, but it can be grouped under three areas:
The community project
Our home for orphan girls
Our home for orphan boys
We bring aid to the community, especially those who have been rejected by society because they have HIV/AIDS. Specifically, we buy food for families who don't have any, provide clothes for those who have none, buy medicines for the sick, and meet as many needs as we possibly can.
We feel that family is crucial in the development of a child so we personally are family to 9 orphaned/abandoned Kenyan girls. They live in our home with us. Seven of them are teenagers or almost teens. It's an interesting life! Let me tell you. It's not always easy, but it is rewarding. We are trying to give these girls a chance to have a normal life despite having lost their parents or having been rejected by their family.
After taking in orphan girls, we saw a need to provide a home for boys. Our Kenyan friend Ali offered to be a dad to the boys in need. He gave up his business, his home, his LIFE so that he could join us in this radical walk of living out our faith in a way beyond mere words… and so we opened a home for boys at his house. He and his wife Virginia plus their two children are now family to five boys who otherwise would have none.
Together we are giving them
A Future and a Hope!

Cala'n Bosch Menorca
Cala'n Bosch (Cala en Bosch) is located on the South West tip of Menorca, approximately 60 minutes away from Mahon airport. Close to the city of Ciutadella and on beautifully clear days you can see across the Mediterranean to Majorca, the neighbouring island.
Cala'n Bosch Overview
One of the slightly larger resorts on the island, Cala'n Bosch offers a nice variety of activities for families, not to mention the Waterpark.
Neighbouring two other resorts of Son Xoriguer and Cap d'Artrutx there are plenty of bars and restaurants to visit during your stay. But, being purpose built for tourism you can expect there are a healthy variety of accommodation, conversely this means in the low season Cala'n Bosch and the neighbouring villages are very quiet.
Further information here for the weather in Cala'n Bosch.
Cala'n Bosch Beach
There are a few beaches in the vicinity, but not as large as other resorts such as Son Bou.
You have the Cala'n Bosch beach itself located a stones throw from the Marina of Cala'n Bosch, which is the largest within the 3 small resorts and provides good protection from the waves for smaller children and good opportunities to go snorkeling around the coast. Then there's Son Xoriguer beach which provides a nice sheltered sandy beach. On the west of the resort, you won't find any sandy beaches, but shrub lands and rough terrain.
You can also rent sun loungers during the day. For 2 sun loungers and parasol expect to pay up to €19 for all day, with discounts later on in the day.
Shopping in Cala'n Bosch
You'll find a few small supermarkets dotted around Cala'n Bosch, including the Marina for instance. However if you want a larger weekly shop and to save some money, I would recommend heading to Ciutadella.
Also you'll find various small clothing shops around and independent shops in the summer time where you can pick up some hand crafted items for a good price. But again, it may be worthwhile heading to Ciutadella for more variety and choice.
Cala'n Bosch Nightlife
Like many other resorts in Menorca, they aren't many pubs, bars, cafes and nightclubs. Don't expect to be partying until the early hours of the morning, for that head to Mahon, Ciutadella or the renowned Cave Club.
However, for some good food, nice wine and a good atmosphere head to the marina. In the height of summer you'll have hand crafted jewelers and merchants as well as frequent entertainment.
Cala'n Bosch Marina
Something which not every Menorcan resort can offer. So head to the marina for a slightly different evening. As mentioned above, during the summer you can often find locals performing, small stalls selling hand made products. And of course, like many places on the island great for families and relatively safe.
Cala'n Bosch WiFi
Internet is easily and readily available in almost every bar and restaurant in Cala'n Bosch However, the majority will require a password, which usually requires you to purchase a drink or some food in the particular establishment.
Airport Transfers to Cala'n Bosch Menorca
For discounted Son Bou airport transfers and San Jaime airport transfers head to Shuttle Menorca with this link here and you receive 10% off compared to booking directly.
Cala'n Bosch Menorca Hotels & Apartments
There are plenty of Cala'n Bosch accommodation to choose from. From private villas and apartments on Homeaway and Airbnb. To larger self catering apartments, all-inclusive hotels and half board and full board offerings which can all be found on On The Beach. Or feel free to search below:

The transferred sectors include 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7 Extension, 9, 9A, 10A, 12, 12A, 14, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, 23A, 27, 28, 30 (Part), 31, 32, 33, 34, 37 (Part 2), 38, 39, 40, 41 (Part), 42, 43, 47, 54, 55 and 56. Lack of funds with Huda have resulted in poor civic amenities in these sectors.
The transfer comes a couple of days after chief minister Maohar Lal Khattar approved an MCG takeover of maintenance in DLF phases 1-3, Sushant Lok-1 and Udyog Vihar.
The financial structure of the sectors has also been divided into two parts. Huda will recover extension fees, transfer fees and other fees related to plots. While 75% of recovery fees, maintenance extension fees, building plan application fees and composition charge will be given to MCG, the rest will be given to Huda.
Unsold plots in the sectors will be divided equally between Huda and MCG. However, property tax, water supply maintenance charges and sewerage charges generated from the sectors will be recovered by MCG. Huda, on the other hand, will allot space for meat markets, cremation grounds, transport hubs, and dumping sites for solid waste.
Huda staff working in the sectors will be temporarily sent to MCG on deputation. They are expected to be transferred permanently.
Geeta Vardhan, a Sector 30 resident, said, "It is a good move as the corporation has expertise in providing maintenance services. The move will bring down multiplicity of agencies in the city."
However, not all welcomed the move. "MCG is managing a few sectors and villages and those are in a very bad state. I don't think MCG is capable of providing better services than Huda." Sandeep Jain, a Sector 23 A resident, said.

The Fabulous Fox Theater
This shot of the Fox Theater is the last picture I made with the legendary Nikon D700, snapped during the Grand Center Art Walk. The camera is on its way to an eBay buyer, replaced by a Nikon D800. Introduced in 2008, using the same FX sensor as the Nikon D3, the D700 rapidly became a game changer as the first affordable full frame DSLR.
This blue/sepia split tone version was created in Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.
Camera: Nikon D700
Lens: AF-S Nikon 50mm f/1.4G
Exposure: ISO 800 @ f/4.0 @ 1/60s Auto WB, hand held while walking.

A Facial is a beauty treatment which involves a series of skin care treatments for the face. Having a Facial can be a relaxing experience useful for increasing the blood and oxygen flow in the skin.
Facials rejuvenate, hydrate and cleanse the face, and are used for general skin health as well as for specific skin conditions. For general skin health a regular facial helps maintain the healthy skin. Regular facials can help cleanse, improve and pamper your skin but also relax and rejuvenate.
Facials for different skin conditions include facial treatment for rosacea, also facial treatment for blackheads and whiteheads, facial treatment for dry or sensitive skin or acne prone skin.
Facials are performed in the treatment room and usually starts off with face cleansing. It can be with steam or without. It is then followed by a specific facial treatment you opted for and usually contains a mask and a serum. Mask can be for different purposes, from deep-cleansing which penetrates the pores, masks for healing acne scars or specifically designed for treating hyper-pigmentation; there are also masks that help brightening the skin which works giving the skin a gradual illumination of the skin tone.
The type of products used in your facial will be based on your skin type and concern. For example for aging skin, the products used are often containing anti-aging ingredients such as retinol or hyaluronic acid.
Facial is a very popular treatment to have and the result is usually visible immediately and particularly in the days following the treatment.
Because not all skin types and tones are the same, there is an array of procedures and products used.
Also depending of what result you are looking for will depend on what type of facial you would choose.
Perfect for an acne-prone or blocked skin, as it helps to reduce the appearance of acne and blemishes. This facial includes deep cleansing of pores, which helps to get rid of the excess oil and black heads. Cleansing facial not only helps to treat acne and pimples on the skin, but it also helps to lighten the acne scars. Cleansing facials contain mild scrubbing with a steaming technique to ensure that the dirt is pulled out easily.
This facial is ultimately designed to be used on dull and loose skin. Collagen-infused products and collagen boosting techniques are applied in this treatment. Collagen is an important protein that helps to rejuvenate your skin and keep it supple, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Anti-ageing facial helps to restore the natural suppleness of the skin by a cell renewal process. This facial includes a lot of steaming and massaging, which uplifts your skin naturally.
One of the best relaxing ways to hydrate your skin externally, by using moisture intense skin care products. Hydration facials help promote healthy, glowing and moisturised skin. This type of facial is beneficial for people with extremely dry, parched and dehydrated skin. This facial retains moisture and hydration on the skin, thus keeping your skin soft and supple. It helps to shrink large-sized pores on the skin, sloughs off the dead skin cells and also improves the elasticity of the skin. It involves a process of steaming, exfoliating, skin care products and massaging, which hydrates the your skin.
There are also skincare brand specific facial treatments such as Environ Facial, RegimA Facial, Guinot Facial, Theravine Facial, Matis Facial, Dermalogica and many more, all bearing the name of the manufacturer of the products used in the treatment, and the products you can use at home.
