Lovely stay. The cottage was gorgeous, as were the grounds and we were made to feel very welcome. thoroughly recommend!
Netali 2016-05-10T00:00:00ZI spent a lovely few days at the cottage with my partner and our 6 month old daughter. It's a true oasis of calm set in a stunning walled garden. We were lucky to have glorious weather too so we spent most of the time in the walled garden. The cottage itself was perfect for the three of us with all the amenities we needed. The bed was incredibly comfortable and at night the bedroom was pitch black and silent - just how I like it! The cottage is very comfortable with a open plan kitchen/dinning/living area, a separate bedroom and a bathroom with shower. There are lots of nice touches like breakfast ingredients and luxury furnishing which help make the whole stay feel like a real treat. Barbara was the perfect host, she left us to enjoy the cottage and gardens but was there if we needed her. All in all a lovely and relaxing stay and one which we hope to repeat soon! Thanks Scott, Denise and Mia
Scott2016-08-25T00:00:00ZRooks Cottage was the perfect location for our visit. It is in a quiet rural location and set in stunning gardens. The cottage was spotlessly clean, and had every amenity we needed. Barbara was the perfect hostess. Communication prior to arrival was excellent, and during our stay she was available if needed but not at all intrusive. Barbara also provided everything we needed for a hearty breakfast - cereal, bread, eggs, tea, coffee & milk. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rooks Cottage, and we hope to return at some point.
Donna2015-05-18T00:00:00ZBeautiful cosy cottage in a stunning location. Barbara was warm, hospitable and thoughtfully provided us with everything we could have needed. If we are ever in that part of the world again, we would definitely stay here again!
Soph & Josephine2014-12-23T00:00:00ZIt's amazing!! A wonderful lovely place to be. We've enjoyed every minute, although we've been there for work. And thanks Barbara for your fantatstic advice with The Aldorf Barn :-) Kind regards, Matthias
Bianca2014-09-19T00:00:00ZBarbara welcomed us as soon as we drove in. The cottage was exactly as described. A very nice and cosy space. There was all the essentials for breakfast. Along with the bathroom essentials, there was also bathroom slippers which was so lovely to have in winter. Barbara was also incredibly helpful with her advice on what to do around. She recommended us many villages and parks to visit which were all stunning. We had a very relaxing stay and would highly recommend Barbara as a host.
Elodie2016-03-29T00:00:00ZA wonderful stay in a beautiful cottage. We loved the gardens and the peace and quiet. Barbara was fantastic- helpful and attentive if we needed but also gave us plenty of space and privacy. Thank you so much.
Jamie2015-07-24T00:00:00ZThis property and its owner lived up to all the good reviews and more! We were not expecting complete provision of a good breakfast but it was comforting as the place is a car trip from such things and we therefore felt extremely well looked after whilst enjoying total privacy. We would 100% recommend a stay in this beautiful little gem.

Gill kept excellent communication before our arrival and always replied promptly to our queries. The cabin itself was lovely and warm, with lots of windows and fresh air; her tea&cake on arrival were much appreciated! The kitchen is well equipped to make a proper meal & even though there wasn't much extraction, it all felt very safe to leave doors open. The cabin is calm&quiet&even more private than the photos show, as there are trees around both. Gill has little booklets on the surrounding area, with info on walks there's also a dvd player&a tv linking to your Netflix/Amazon for the rainy days..! Would definitely recommend!
Artemis2016-06-25T00:00:00ZAll communication with Gill and Peter went very well, we received a detailed map with directions how to reach Lockhurst Hatch Farm beforehand. Peter and Gill made us feel welcome in the cute wooden cabin with home made cake, suggestions for restaurants and walks in the nearby area. They even send us a message with the weather forecast and reminded us of the change of the clock. We had a lovely week, the cabin is set in the forest with plenty of privacy and makes you feel on holiday in an instant. The area is very suitable for hiking, drinking cream tea in the nearby villages and have a good meal in the local pubs. We also made daytrips to Stonehenge and Arundal castle, which we both would highly recommend. On a rainy day the cabin is comfortable even in cold weather, with a selection of DVD's or TV if you like. The kitchen is very complete, with even a mixer in the wooden kitchen cabinets. The WiFi was running smoothly, although we used it infrequently.
Merel2015-11-01T00:00:00ZCan't add much to what's been said already. Lovely place, beautiful location, perfect place to decompress from the stresses of city life. Enjoyed a very peaceful week in the woods and loved the place. Will definitely look to book again when I next get back to the UK!
Adrian2016-07-13T00:00:00ZGill's lodge was fantastic and just as described. It was clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. Gill was super friendly and very helpful. We enjoy our stay so much that I've already been recommending the lodge to friends and colleagues.
Ben2017-02-05T00:00:00ZWe only stayed for two nights but had a great time at Gill's cabin. The cabin was very cosy and Gill was more than happy to suggest local pubs/walking routes to fill our time there (albeit being in the cabin was no problem at all given how nice it is). Walking boots are a must to take advantage of the walks on offer and we will certainly be back soon.
Elliott2016-01-03T00:00:00ZMost amazing experience ever. Beautiful cabin on a beautiful farm. Perfect for a short weekend away and will definitely go again
Frederick2014-09-10T00:00:00ZGill is a fantastic host and extremely friendly and helpful. Communication is fast and full of useful info. We were extremely happy during our stay and we absolutely adored the cabin. Zero complaints and nothing but praise from us. I'm sure we will definitely come back another season. Thanks for the welcome cake also; it was delicious! :)
Shakill2015-01-19T00:00:00ZGill was very welcoming on arrival and the Cabin and it's wooded surroundings are lovely.

An excellent flat reasonably priced. Everything you need is provided and the flat was wonderfully warm even in cold and frosty December. It was a great place to stay while house hunting. Sadly we were only able to view the beautiful garden from afar. Perhaps next time we will see more. Our hosts were always on hand to give help when needed.
Barry2013-12-16T00:00:00ZOur experience with our host was a positive and relaxed one.The Nash's were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much and it definitely was everything that we hoped it would be and more. The neighbourhood was quiet and had beautiful scenery, it was a lovely base for us to sightsee the south of England.
Mitchel2014-06-10T00:00:00ZOn arriving, there was homemade cake and a warm welcome from Anne-Marie & her husband. The setting was quiet & the accommodation comfortable, especially the bed. Unfortunately the weather was inclement and as our clothing and footwear was more suited to drier climes, we were unable to explore the woodland and surrounds. We would thoroughly recommend this venue if you are looking for a quiet, homely retreat away from the bustle of a larger town. If askred to rate this stay out of 5 I would give it 4.5
John2015-12-22T00:00:00ZPerfect adress, clean, very well equiped. Beautifull view, very suitable for nature and garden lovers in a very nice countryside with many opportunies for walking. Perfect hostess. The garden will cost a lot of time, but they like to talk to you and the house and garden reflects a authentic English style.
Jolanda2014-08-09T00:00:00ZAnne-Marie's garden apartment is truly beautiful. Me and my girlfriend stayed there for three days and we did not want to leave. The garden is amazing and we enjoyed walking through it to see the animals. The neighbourhood is very friendly and we met a lot of people in the local pubs where we had our lunch and dinner at times. We also loved collecting the free range eggs and using them to bake cakes in the evening and pancakes in the morning. The apartment is warm, welcoming and brilliantly set out. Anne-Marie was very helpful, she helped us with all our queries and even allowed us to use her torch and other tools when she noticed that we didn't have our own. Overall, me and my girlfriend loved it and will be going back on many more occasions. I recommend the place to anyone who wants to stay somewhere beautiful, fun and peaceful.
Nabil2014-02-12T00:00:00ZI stayed at Rudgwick for a week due to work commitments in Guildford. The flat was ideal and much better than the typical business hotel stay I am accustomed to. It was such a bonus to be able to cook my own meals and keep on top of laundry. The area is nice, quiet with shops and pleasant pubs all nearby. I would recommend this as an alternative option for any business travellers in the area.
Paul2015-07-04T00:00:00ZI was immediately made to feel welcome. It is the perfect place to recharge my energy! The accommodation has everything one needs... it is spacious and comfortable. Anne-Marie is a lovely host, full of helpful and useful information.
Sue2016-04-10T00:00:00ZTranquillity, scenic walks, nice pubs with homemade dishes and local ales. Accommodation has everything to cater needs, hosts Anne-Marie and and Roger were fabulous hosts, a pleasure to converse with and a fountain of knowledge where it comes to information about local places of interest and history of the surrounding area. Will hopefully be visiting again, as a week was far too short to fully explore what's in the vicinity. Thanks for a great experience.

Perfectly located around a 10k walking route to view the Holmbury and Pitch hill, we enjoyed the walk, beautiful forests and the breakfast with a view, would highly recommend!

Perfect and lovely place and family. Very natural breakfast from their farm. Lovely and comfortable house. I loved that a lot. The 3 mobile coverage in this area is not good. Try to have other sim card
Amgad2015-09-23T00:00:00ZLocation and property perfect for our needs for the weekend. Details on sire inaccurate. Expectation to spare personal space for cost of stay not appropriate. No hot water available in bathrooms if not the first to shower. Ran out of hot water every day.
Jenny2016-09-01T00:00:00ZDue to private circumstances, Carol wasn't able to receive us personally. But she has prepared everything to make our arrival as easy as possible. The house is very special and located in a nice area. The garden is well maintained and the house nicely decorated. Carol prepared us a great breakfast with croissants! But beware of the dog, he is very protective :)
Jannic2015-07-09T00:00:00ZI did get to Carol's house so late in the night, my plane was delayed and I furthermore got lost in the dark area (mind your navigation system ). However, I felt welcome, the bed was cosy, the house amazing as described. I would have expected a shower (there was a tub) on the floor. I enjoyed Carol's breakfast, too bad I could not stay longer this time.
Christine2015-09-15T00:00:00ZI really enjoyed my stay here. The house is lovely and I had a warm and comfortable room. Everything was very clean and it is a peaceful place. Recommended.

Thank you Carol, for making my Christmas feel very special this year !

We loved staying at shepherds hut and found it very cosy. We loved waking up to the alpacas and ponies and enjoyed sitting at the outdoor table for breakfast. Rebecca left us a lovely collection of breakfast yummies. We did some nice walks from the hut.
Meg and Tim2016-09-03T00:00:00ZRebecca was an excellent host, fantastic communication. Wonderful pub (The Fox Inn) only a couple of minutes walk away. The hut was equipped with everything you needed and the breakfast was lovely.
Margie2016-09-04T00:00:00ZPerfect relaxing break for my wife's birthday. Especially welcome were the animals. Alpacas, Shetlands and chookens. Plus a very friendly kitten who made himself welcome. Evening meal at the Fox was superb. We would recommend this as a relaxing place to stay.
Warren2016-10-23T00:00:00ZBoris & Becca were so easily contactable and very quick to respond to any questions I had. I stayed in the hut for one night with my boyfriend and it exceeded all of our expectations! We went on a lovely walk to the local pub, played frisbee in the field, had a BBQ, and watched the star. We loved feeding the alpacas and ponies and even had fresh eggs from the chickens for breakfast. We wish we could have stayed for more than one night; couldn't fault it!
Harriet2016-09-27T00:00:00ZWe had a lovely evening, we sat outside and had a BBQ and later on we lit the fire pit. The hut was very clean, well equipped and we would definately go again. The alpacas were very friendly and we fed them in the morning, the huts in the most idyllic location and Boris made us feel very welcome.
Kate2016-08-04T00:00:00ZGreat stay, loved the hut, very relaxing night away - would definitely recommend! Breakfast was unexpected yet very welcome and a lovely touch. Thank you.
Prunella2016-08-21T00:00:00ZMy 15 year old daughter and I had a lovely weekend at the shepherd's hut - it had everything we could possibly need, including bbq, fire and picnic table outside. The hut was warm and comfy and it was great to share our weekend with the animals in the field! Lots of walks nearby which we enjoyed. We shall definitely come again.
Jenny2016-09-18T00:00:00ZWe had such a lovely stay in the hut. Had a lovely fire outside before the April weather got too chilly and then spent the evening inside with the electric heater on. Rebecca has thought of everything and it's all of an excellent standard: White Company towels, Bose iPod dock, ordnance survey maps, cards... We collected 3 eggs from the chickens and fed the 3 alpacas in the next field. Good hot shower too. A huge step up from the last caravan I stayed in (20 years ago) and would definitely stay again.

Staying at Beryl's was like being at a long lost friend's. It was just so easy and relaxed and I had such a good night's sleep, Sophie the dog is utterly delightful. I so enjoyed my stay and look forward to coming again soon
Rachael2016-11-21T00:00:00ZI stayed with Ms. Beryl and Sophie during a job training. Although it was like a 7* vacation, I regret not having more time to chat/play and get to know these two gems. Ms Beryl is an amazing host which did more than I could have asked for (even when I was consistently asking her not to!!!). She got me feeling for another period of time with her life stories, experiences and home-cooked Shepherd's pie (my first classic British dish that I ever ate and it set a high standard for me now) Overall...I felt a bit pampered actually. Both her house and guest-room were cosy and lead me feeling like I was on a vacation. Her dog, Sophie is one of the most energetic, smart and beautiful dogs I've encountered up until now. Overall, staying at her was refreshing and I would visit Ms Beryl again any time. Am definitely recommending her when visiting Cranleigh, or any surroundings. Looking forward for visiting her again !!!
Stefan2017-03-06T00:00:00ZThis is a great Air B'n'B! Beryl is very welcoming and ready with a refreshing cuppa when you arrive! Like the house itself, the room was immaculate, clean and airy with TV and en-suite (shower, loo, basin), with fresh towels and clean white linen. Beryl's cockerpoo Sophie is great fun, and likes to meet visitors! Beryl herself is very interesting to talk to, and I think we chatted about subjects ranging from gardening to military aviation! Location is a very quiet and leafy cul-de-sac, and off-road parking was made available. Several choices of breakfast were offered, so all in all, a thoroughly enjoyable stay was had by this traveller!
THERESE2016-09-12T00:00:00ZThis is a real home from home. Beryl and her gorgeous dog were very friendly. She made me a cup of tea on arrival and made me feel really welcome and relaxed. hope to see you again Beryl
Rob2016-11-29T00:00:00ZThe place was much more than we expected. It is beautiful and as described in the add, spacious, modern and cosy. Beryl was extremely welcoming and helpful, and the place is perfect for whoever wants a nice quiet environment. The place was easy to find with GPS and Beryl also gave us clear indications.
julie2016-08-30T00:00:00ZBeryl was a friendly host who greeted us warmly on arrival and offered to make us a cup of tea. The en suite room was extremely clean and just right for our overnight stay and Beryl provided us with a good breakfast before our departure. Beryl was an obliging host who clearly wanted us to feel comfortable in her home. The residential area is quiet and attractive and within easy reach of the high street with a choice of pubs, restaurants and takeaways for an evening meal. We had a relaxing night in a quiet and comfortable room, which was exactly what we needed.

We liked what we had read about Cranleigh, which has an amazing variety of amenities although we didn't have time to explore all of them. The Host left a guide to their home and all the idiosyncrasies of the machines!! Invaluable. The house is in a quiet part of Cranleigh in a beautiful part of Surrey. Ideal for venturing into London or surrounding area.

Almost too good to be true, beautiful home, wonderful food and an entertaining host! Rural location away from the world and near the woods
Mike2017-01-06T00:00:00ZMy boyfriend Joseph and I absolutely loved our peaceful retreat at Robin's place. The surrounding area was close to a number of hiking trails and activities to enjoy during our 3 night stay. Robin is a fantastic cook and we had dinner cooked for us every night for a small additional cost, all made with fresh produce straight from his farm. The room was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities that we needed. Robin was a lovely host, full of interesting conversation and we will definitely be returning again soon!
Minoli2016-07-07T00:00:00ZThe cottage is tucked away on 12 acres of beautiful English countryside. We enjoyed exploring the gardens and fields and visiting the chickens, cows, pigs and ducks. Robin is a good host and made us feel very welcome. He also cooks a good breakfast and the evening meal was delicious, especially with his well chosen wine. We were lucky enough to meet one of Robin's regular guests and share stories of Kenya around the kitchen table and watch the Wimbledon final together. Our 3 night stay was at the end of a 5 week trip and was the perfect finish to our holiday in England. We had a late flight back to Australia and Robin was very accommodating in letting us stay a little longer. We really felt at home and would love to visit next time we are back in the U.K. Many thanks Tania and Andy Galbraith.
Tania2016-07-24T00:00:00ZI only stayed at this beautiful country home for one night, but wished I had time to stay longer. The farm setting is wonderful and the home immaculate. Robyn has a talent for cooking and made me dinner for a small extra cost , including wine. I couldn't of been more pleased. A great find!
Rob2016-05-15T00:00:00ZRobin's place is completely magic! The secluded country location is magical to wake up to and his house is simply stunning. All the little touches like luxurious towels, underfloor heating and an incredible organic, free range English breakfast are icing on the top of an already amazing house and host! Robin is an engaging and interesting host - someone you could comfortably chat to for hours without ever feeling awkward. We really enjoyed our little walk in the woods to the beautiful nearby church and imagine there are lots of other lovely walks to be done nearby. We want to come back in the summer and try one of his home-cooked meals of farm-fresh food.

Michael2017-02-15T00:00:00ZWe were one of the first guests to stay at Alison's place and it was clear she has put a huge amount of effort in getting all the little details right. Beautifully decorated the space is lovely and light and plenty of room for the three of us on a large double bed and a single. Wonderful views over the valley in the evening, and we were lucky to have gorgeous sunsets both evenings. There are plenty of walks in all directions and Alison has created a folder full of information for walks and every other conceivable activity. There is a great pub minutes walking away and plenty of good places to eat close by, including a cafe specialising in making and using their own local cheese. Next door to that is a brewery with a great selection of beers to taste and then buy. All in all I can thoroughly recommend this place for a great getaway to relax in beautiful surroundings.

Our stay at the stables was lovely! Both Thom and Jane were very friendly and helpful and the place was very cosy and had everything you could want for a short stay in the country. Location-wise, it was brilliant for exploring the beautiful surrounding area, as you could literally just walk across the road and you were in beautiful woodland. The Plough Inn was also only across the road and great for warming up in after a day of exploring. We would highly recommend the stables to anyone looking for a country retreat!

The property is a converted stables and feels a little run down and could do with a good clean. The conversion is very basic so don't expect any luxuries, just the bare essentials here. Indeed, the stables doors still remain with big gaps around the edges that allow the outside weather to come in and provide no soundproofing when the dustmen come around early Monday morning! There is a wood burner that provides plenty of heat and creates a nice, cozy feeling and overall the place feels fairly spacious. Thom is a great host, eager to please and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay here but felt it was slightly overpriced for what you get but I guess that is the Surrey Hills for you!
Darryl & Katia2017-01-12T00:00:00ZWe were looking for a short retreat from the hustle and bustle of London and we could not have picked a better place than Thom's home in Coldharbour. It is located in a charming, quaint little village. There is a pub (we'd recommend the food!) and a small village shop. You are seconds away from woods and fields, and we enjoyed going for walks and even a jog on Sunday morning. The place itself is very cosy, with a fireplace to keep you warm. All the essentials are there. Thom is a very helpful, welcoming, and friendly host. We would definitely recommend this place! When Thom dropped us off at the Dorking train station, we felt re-energized to go back to London.
Monique2016-11-07T00:00:00ZGreat are for walking or cycling, excellent converted stables which are really warm with a fireplace creating a cosy atmosphere. The pub next door has a lot of charm and Thom was very welcoming before we arrived providing everything we needed for a relaxing weekend.

AngOh, how fun! Wish I had that. Love the tiki touches. Thanks for sharing at the My Favorite Things party. Theresa @DearCreatives
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea...and guess what...I have pallets and a pool. I also love what you did around the sides.
Another guess what....my Mom & Step Father live in Crosby...visit there often!!
Thanks for the ideas!! Pinning it!RepliesThanks Bobbie! We added stools to it today and now is just perfect! We love living in Crosby - has your Mom lived her long? Hope you have a fabulous weekend.
DeleteMy Mom has lived there for maybe 4 years now, she moved there after marrying my Step Father. He's lived there forever. They live outside city limits.
Thanks and I hope you're weekend is going great!
What a cute idea! May need to dig out some of my pallets!! Would look cute out by our pool; the weather sure has been hot and humid, I live in Huffman, quite close to Crosby!! Just found your blog.....thanks so much!
Lynn H, Huffman, TXRepliesHowdy neighbor! I'm hoping all the darn rain will hold off tomorrow so that we can get out and enjoy it this weekend! There is nothing like a dip in the pool to cool off and escape the nasty humidity. Now if I can just figure out a way to keep the horse flies and mosquitoes away it would be perfect!
Innovate idea! We have a similar type pool and I love it. Stopping by forjm Inspire me Monday!
ReplyDeleteI just pinned this fun idea and scheduled it for Facebook for this afternoon as one of our great features at Freedom Fridays!!
Hugs and thanks for sharing!!
PS From one fellow Texan to another!!Hi Jeanette. I just linked to your post with my pallet bar. Thanks again for the awesome idea!! Yours is fancier. :)
ReplyDeleteI love this! We are about to do something like this- Where did you get your bamboo screen?? Also, fun fact. I was born and raised in Liberty, Tx! Found this on Pinterest and then squealed to my husband: "They're from CROSBY!!"
ReplyDeleteRepliesHi Lizzy! Liberty is such a pretty little town! We go to the Opry House on the square every chance we get. The screen around the pool came from Lowes. It is $25 a roll and took 2 rolls for our pool. The bamboo on the tiki bar is a package of plant stakes that I picked up at big lots. We are going to be putting the pool back up in a week or two, that is, if it every quits raining! Good luck with yours! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do ours!

Brief Introduction: Correctly positioning patients is crucial for maintaining body alignment and comfort; preventing injury to the musculoskeletal and integumentary systems; and providing sensory, motor, and cognitive stimulation. A patient with impaired mobility, decreased sensation, impaired circulation, or lack of voluntary muscle control can develop damage to the musculoskeletal and integumentary system while lying down.
Brief Introduction – Cont'd You must minimize this risk by maintaining unrestricted circulation and correct body alignment while moving, turning or positioning a patient. The term body alignment refers to the condition of the joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles in various body positions. When the body is aligned, whether standing, sitting, or lying, no excessive strain is placed on these structures. Body alignment means that the body is in line with the pull of gravity and contributes to body balance.
ASSESSMENT: 1. Assess patient's ROM – body alignment, and comfort level while patient is lying down. 2. Assess for risk factors that contribute to complications of immobility. A. Sensation: Decreased from cerebrovascular accident (CVA), paralysis, neuropathy. B. Impaired mobility : Traction, arthritis, hip fracture, joint surgery, or other contributing disease process. C. Impaired circulation : Arterial insufficiency D. Age: Very young, very old
ASSESSMENT – CONT'D 3. Assess patient's level of consciousness. 4. Assess condition of the patient's skin, especially over the bony prominences. 5. Assess patient's physical ability to help with moving and positioning. This may be affected by age, level of consciousness, disease process, strength, ROM, and coordination 6. Assess for the presence of incisions, drainage tubes, and equipment (e.g., traction). Empty drainage bags before positioning. 7. Assess motivation of patient and ability of the family caregiver to participate in moving & positioning. 8. Check health care provider's order before positioning the patient.
PLANNING: 1. Identify expected outcomes Patient retains ROM Patient's skin shows no evidence of breakdown. Patient's comfort level increases Patient's level of independence in completing activities of daily living (ADLs) increases 2. Raise level of bed to comfortable working height. 3. Remove all pillows and devices used in previous position. 4. Get extra help as needed. 5. Explain the procedure to the patient
IMPLEMENTATION 1. Perform hand hygiene 2. Close door to room or bedside curtains 3. Help patient move up in bed A. Can the patient assist? 1. Fully able to assist, nurse assistance is not needed; nurse stands by to assist. 2. Partially able to assist; patient can assist using positioning cues or aides (e.g., draw-sheet or friction-reduction device).
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D 4. Help patient move up in bed using a draw-sheet (two to three nurses assist): A. Place patient supine with head of bed flat. Place height of bed appropriate for all staff. A nurse stands on each side of the bed. B. Remove pillow from under head and shoulders and place it at head of the bed. C. Turn patient side to side to place draw-sheet under them, extending from shoulders to thighs. D. Return patient to a supine position. E. Fan-fold draw-sheet on both sides, with each nurse grasping firmly near the patient. F. Place feet apart with forward-backward stance. Flex knees and hips. On the count of three, shift weight from the front to the back leg and move the patient and the draw-sheet to the desired position in the bed.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D 5. Help the patient move up in bed using a friction-reducing device. A. Position patient as in Steps 4 a-c. B. Place friction-reducing device under draw-sheet by having the patient turn side to side. C. Move patient up in the bed by having two nurses grasp the draw- sheet, and one nurse holds onto the friction-reduction device. Follow steps 4e and f, moving patient up in the bed.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D 6. Position patient in one of the following positions using correct body alignment. Protect pressure areas. Begin with patient lying in a supine and move up in the bed following either step 4 or 5. A. Position patient in supported semi-Fowler's or Fowler's position. 1. with patient lying supine, elevate head of the bed 45 to 60 degrees if not contraindicated. 2. Rest head against mattress or on small pillow. 3. Use pillows to support arms and hands if the patient does not have voluntary control or use of hands and arms. 4. Position small pillow at lower back. 5. Place small pillow or roll under thigh 6. Support calves with pillows
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D B. Position hemiplegic patient in supported semi-Fowler's or Fowler's position: 1. Position patient in supine position. Elevate head of bed 45 to 60 degrees. 2. Position patient in Fowler's position as straight as possible. 3. Position head on small pillow with chin slightly forward. If patient is totally unable to control head movement, avoid hyperextension of the neck. 4. Provide support for involved arm and hand by placing arm away from patient's side and supporting elbow with pillow. 5. Place rolled blanket (trochanter roll) firmly alongside patient's legs. 6. Support feet in dorsiflexion with therapeutic boots or splints.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D C. Position patient in supported supine position 1. Place patient supine with head of the bed flat. 2. Place small rolled towel under lumbar area of back – provides support for lumbar spine. 3. Place pillow under upper shoulders, neck and head. 4. Place trochanter rolls or sandbags parallel to lateral surface of the patient's thighs. 5. Place patient's feet in therapeutic boots or splints. 6. Place pillows under the pronated forearms, keeping upper arms parallel to patient's body. 7. Place hand rolls in patient's hands. Consider physical therapy referral for use of hand splints.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D D. Position hemiplegic patient in supine position: 1. Place head of the bed flat. 2. Place folded towel or small pillow under shoulder or affected side. 3. Keep affected arm away from the body with elbows extended and palm up. Position the affected hand in one of the recommended positions for flaccid or spastic hand. (Alternative is to place arm out to the side, with the elbow bent and hand towards the head of the bed). 4. Place folded towel under the hip of the involved side. 5. Flex affected knee to 30 degrees by supporting it on a pillow or folded blanket. 6. Support feet with soft pillows at right angle to the leg
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D E. Position patient in prone position, using two nurses: 1. With head of bed flat and one nurse standing on each side of the bed, roll the patient to one side, while placing arm on side to be turned alongside of body. For patients with hemiplegia, move toward unaffected side. 2. Roll patient over arm positioned close to the body, with elbow straight and hand under the hip. Position on the abdomen in center of the bed. 3. Turn patient's head to one side and support head with small pillow. 4. Place small pillow under the patient's abdomen below the level of the diaphragm – this reduces pressure on breasts of some female patients and decreases hyperextension of lumbar vertebrae and strain on lower back. Improves breathing by reducing mattress pressure on the diaphragm. 5. Support arms in flexed position level at shoulders 6. Support lower legs with pillows to elevate toes – this prevents foot-drop. Reduces external rotation of legs. Reduces mattress pressure on toes.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D F. Position hemiplegic patient in prone position using two nurses: 1. Move patient toward unaffected side. 2. While rolling patient onto side, place pillow on patient's abdomen. 3. With one nurse standing on each side of the bed, roll the patient onto their abdomen by positioning involved arm close to the patient's body, with elbow straight and hand under hip. Roll patient carefully over arm. 4. Turn head toward involved side. 5. Position involved arm out to side with elbow bent, hand toward head of bed, and fingers extended (if possible). 6. Flex knees slightly by placing pillow under legs from knees to ankles. 7. Keep feet at right angle to legs by using pillow high enough to keep toes off the mattress.
IMPLENTATION – CONT'D G. Position patient in 30-degree lateral (side-lying) position (one nurse): 1. Lower head of the bed completely or as low as patient can tolerate. 2. Lower side rail and position patient on side of the bed opposite direction toward which patient is to be turned. Move upper trunk, supporting shoulders first; then move lower trunk, supporting hips. 3. Raise side rail and go to opposite side of the bed. 4. Flex patient's knee that will not be next to the mattress. Keep foot on the mattress. Place one hand on the patient's upper bent leg near the hip, and place other hand on the patient's shoulder. 5. Roll the patient onto side toward you. 6. Place pillow under patient's head and neck. 7. Place hands under patient's dependent shoulder and bring shoulder blade forward – this prevents patient's weight from resting directly on shoulder joint.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D 8. Position both arms in slightly flexed position. Support upper arm with pillow level with shoulders; other arm, by mattress. 9. Place hands under dependent hip and bring hip slightly forward so angle from hip to mattress is approximately 30 degrees. 10. Place small tuck-back pillow behind patient's back (Make by folding pillow lengthwise. Smooth area is slightly tucked under patient's back.) 11. Place pillow under semi-flexed upper leg level at hip from groin to foot. 12. Place sandbags parallel to plantar surface of dependent foot. May use ankle-foot orthotic on feet, if available.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D H. Position patient in Sims (semi-prone) position (one nurse). 1. Lower head of bed completely. 2. Place patient in supine position and position them on side of bed opposite direction toward which they are to be turned. Move upper trunk, supporting shoulders first, followed by moving lower trunk, supporting hips. 3. Move to other side of the bed and turn patient on their side. Position in lateral position, lying partially on abdomen, with dependent shoulder lift out and arm placed at patient's side.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D (H) 4. Place small pillow under patient's head. 5. Place pillow under flexed upper arm, supporting arm level with shoulder. 6. Place pillow under flexed upper legs, supporting leg level with hip – prevents internal rotation of hip and adduction of legs. Flexion prevents hyperextension of leg. Reduces mattress pressure on knees and ankles. 7. Place sandbags parallel to plantar surface of foot.
IMPLEMENTATION – CONT'D I. Logroll patient (three nurses) 1. Place small pillow between patient's knees. 2. Cross patient's arms on chest. 3. Position two nurses on side toward which patient is to be turned and one nurse on side where pillows are to be placed. 4. Fan-fold draw-sheets alongside of patient that will be turning. – Provides strong handles to grip draw-sheet without slipping. 5. With one nurse grasping draw-sheet at lower hips and shoulders and lower back, roll patient as one unit in a smooth, continuous motion on count of three. 6. Nurse on opposite side of bed places pillows along length of patient for support. 7. Gently lean patient as a unit back toward pillows for support.
7. Perform hand hygiene. EVALUATION: 1. Assess patient's body alignment, position, and level of comfort. Patient's body should be supported by adequate mattress, and vertebral column should be without observable curves. 2. Measure ROM 3. Observe for areas of erythema or breakdown involving skin – provides ongoing observation regarding patient's skin and musculoskeletal systems. Indicates complications of immobility or improper positioning of body part.
UNEXPECTED OUTCOMES: 1. Joint contractures develop or worsen – Increases frequency of ROM exercises to affected and immobilized areas. 2. Skin shows localized areas of erythema and breakdown – Increases frequency of repositioning. 3. Patient avoids moving – Medicate with analgesia as ordered by health care provider to ensure patient's comfort before moving. Allow patient medication to take effect before proceeding.
RECORDING & REPORTING: Record procedure and observations (e.g., condition of skin, joint movement, patient's ability to assist with positioning). Report observations at change of shift and document in nurses' notes and electronic health record (EHR). Record time and position change of patient throughout shift.

A friendly girl I met at the local swing social (predominatelly ecs/jitterbug) convinced me to try lindy tonight. For any of you that have only done jitterbug/ecs, and are an amateur like myself, be prepared. Lindy requires a much greater understanding of frame, as well as much more coordination then ecs. I'm an average ecs person, but lindy - I felt like a big loser. I'll be checking out the forum this week, and practicing before next week - I'd love ot learn it, but it is tough starting out. I'm still stuck getting used to the basic. »Jason
this be true, this be true... Lindy is totally fun once you get over the initial stumbline block... Actually, it can be fun while your getting over the initial hardbit too... Just remember that it IS more difficult to learn than ECS, so dont get to discouraged!
Lindy requires so much more attention to the details of the dance that sometimes it's not as fun as ECS-type... unless you're pro. :-/
While Lindy does require more work to master, I enjoy it way way more than ECS. The connection, the improv, the musicality - it's all much more involved, which as you progress becomes more fun. ECS swing is nice for a break (tempo, brain power, etc), but I am always bummed if a night of dancing has more ECS than lindy. Just my 2 cents... So work hard to get past the initial stumbling block! It's frickin' awesome when you're good at it! And the ladies love a man who can lindy
interesting - why did never anyone tell me - i'd have started right away. - just kidding ... I'm just gonna keep in the other posts - lindy is way harder, but way more fun. in thebeginning it is more brainpower, but in the meantime - if you are lucky and have a musicality class someday like i had, than you'll figure out, that everything for a good dance you need is listening to the music. It'll tell you the moves, - the connection, the tention, the amount you kick in the charleston, - just everything. and this experience is so great - i never reached that in jitterbug/ecs. (i've started in ecs/jitterbug - and if you search in old posts - like last years - you'll find me defending how cool ecs/jitterbug is, but by now - just love lindy - "my only one and true love" keep swingin pal luh
I really like the lindy (visually,) it's so smooth and looking and you can really see the connection... of course I guess the most impressive things in life are the most difficult. I'm going to practice the steps a lot before next weekend, so hopefully I won't feel like such a fool. Thanks for the words of encouragement - it was odd for me because at the place where I do ecs there are a lot of people as experienced or less experienced then I - but this group I was in the really bad minority.
The connection. The magic is in the connection. Once you've had the true experience, you'll always want to come back for more. You get addicted, and if you're dancing and can't find the right connection again, it's just so frustrating. It's almost like a drug. Once you've tasted it, you're hooked. And you need your regular fix, or you'll get depressed and frustrated. :lol: Okay, seriously, Lindy Hop is great. It is a bit more difficult, and it takes some dedication, but if you have the time to put into it, it's totally worth it. Go for it.
true, but lindy is not always smooth. lindy is the way the music plays. Take a look at the dance scene out of malcolm X. They are going like wild in that movie. luh
Just for the sake of being argumentative (I'm home sick in bed (with my laptop), and got nothing better to do), even when being wild you should still be smooth. That is, all lead and follow, the connection, should still be as smooth as possible. If not the beatuful connection is lost. But I understand what you mean, the term "smooth Lindy" is about a certain way of dancing the lindy, where the wildness is not emphasized. So "smooth" is a term that can be missunderstood. (Okay, forgive me for this post. As I said, I'm home sick with nothing better to do.)
Once you upgrade to lindy and master that, the next step up is balboa - even more difficult! Don't get me wrong, I love lindy as much as the next guy, but there's just something about bal that for me is even more addictive. It took me awhile to first get used to lindy. I hadn't actually wanted to learn it at first, but took some privates because a female friend of mine wanted to learn it. It was frustrating at first, but once when I was doing jitterbug, I discovered I had transitioned to lindy without realizing it. That's when I started to like it. Then bal was just as frustrating, however I was enamored with its look as I'd seen it danced at various gatherings, so I started taking all the bal classes at the workshops I attended. Once I understood the connection, it just clicked and I've been hooked since. I once overheard some lindy hoppers (at DLX) loudly complain that balboa steals all the awesome lindy leads/follows away. I just smirked to myself and thought "You got that right!", although like I said, I need to lindy just as much as bal. Next, I'm learning blues dance - then I'll consider myself well rounded. -Hepcat
I'm at that frustrating point of trying to get bal! Mainly because I don't have a lead to practice with a lot, but hopefuly it'll click soon. Blues comes more naturaly, but I still need a lot of work. Then I, too, will be a well rounded swing dancer! Ballroom - eh, still needs a lot of work.
i don't mind. Hope you are gonna fell better soon - just to keep the discussion up - what i meant was not at all about loosing connection - there are so many different connections you usually use when leading, and yes, even in wild dancing, the connection has to be smooth, so that there is no stress for the follower - but it does not at all conflict with my post hope you are soon on your earthpads again. luh
You know, I first learned it by taking classes at workshops (as I mentioned), but the workshops were few and far between so I was only getting to bal for a weekend about every other month. I too lacked a follow at home to practice with, as there was no bal community in my town. So I basically kept asking around until I found a follow who was willing to learn with me. I bought some tapes and we met once a week, reviewed the tapes and kept trying things out. It of course helped that I had taken numerous classes "abroad". I knew how it was supposed to feel because I'd had moments of clarity in those various classes when I'd danced with some good follows who were in rotation. Then a follow moved here from California who had already been learning bal. She had her quirks, but her connection and basic were terrific and taught me a lot. The other follow moved away at about the same time, so I continued practicing with the girl from Cali. Since then, I've been in the exponential learning curve and am now getting comfortable with experimenting, sliding around, and stealing moves from various video clips. I organized a weekly bal practice and since I DJ, I've been playing more bal music and it's catching on! Now I've got plenty of follows to bal with at the dances! It's heaven. *sigh* So hang in there. Find a guy who's willing to learn it with you. I went to this aerobics room at a community center to start out. I'd bring my laptop and a boom box and we'd watch the DVDs - shuffling through them frame by frame. But now I have a new apartment with a room with a wood floor, which saves me the 5 bucks, although I am paying a lot more in rent. It's a convenience thing.
bal seems interesting, blues is just a thing you learn by the road, - to have more space to improv, - bal'd be intersting because of the fast music, though i'd prefer to be able to swing to hellzapoppin music luh
No doubt. I think maybe if I didn't have asthma, I might more readily fast lindy to hellzapoppin' music than bal. Since bal requires less energy (not to mention it being very pleasant), I'll likely do it before fast lindy 9 times out of 10. But you CAN put more energy into an aerial-heavy bal-swing with a little charleston thrown in. I think bal looks smoother than lindy to the really fast stuff. As many have commented to me "It looks like you're floating". Incidentally, I have a hard time doing "moves" while doing fast lindy. I always feel like I either don't have the time to execute a move or I don't have the "freeness" to execute some turns. It's as if the connection is too tight and I'm afraid I will hurt my follow. There aren't any points where I feel like I can freely lead some turns unless I force them (and I'm unwilling to do that). I've seen some really cool moves at events and stuff and they look so free and unforced. I can't figure out how to establish that freedom of motion. Maybe the follows I'm dancing with are causing this, but I don't know - maybe it's me.
Good. Seriously, the more you do it, the quicker it will become natural too you. Once the steps are natural you can stop thinking about them and focus on the lead. Practice whereever and whenever you can, even if you're just walking out the steps slowly. That said, Lindy is hard. But truthful, I don't think it's any harder than other dances to learn in order to become functional. The steps of a swingout (8 count basic) in Lindy are more natural than the triples and rocksteps of ECS. You already have some basic concepts of leading down from ECS, and like all dancers you have some bad habits that need to break (the arm staying high in the video clip). As you break that Lindy will become easier and easier. In fact, having some ECS your Lindy already is easier....you already know the 6 count lindy basic! The concept of "hard" is in the connection. It takes a long time to get and a life time to attempt mastering. Professional dancers will spend much of their time working on swingouts getting that connection. The other hard part is capturing the nature of Lindy. Yes, you can be functional and do patterns and moves taught in a class, or you can work at becoming good and learn to be musical and improvise. Those two things hold a lot of the character of Lindy. Both take a while, so get functional, keep practicing and keep working at it and it will seem easier and easier as you go along. Good Luck!
I'm convinced Lindy is harder than most dances. And if by 'the basic' you mean the 8-count 'Swingout' then the basic is hard too. As you may know, learning to lead is also harder than learning to follow. In other words, it takes lots of time and patience. I suggest making friends with other leaders you admire, and asking their advice. You might find these online lessons useful (chargeable, but short previews are free) ... http://www.idance.net/moves.php?action=search&keyword=lindy+hop+-+beginner+series
I'm going to go ahead and pre-empt the follows who object to your statement. I both follow and lead and I agree. Following is loads easier. it frees your mind to play and be creative. It takes more effort for a lead to play and be creative because you've got to plan your moves. A follow doesn't have to think, just react and follow a basic set of rules. They don't have to know the moves. Ask many follows how a particular move is done and they will have difficulty explaining it unless it's been broken down in a class and they've heard it explained. Take what I say with a grain of salt because one could argue that since I'd been leading for a long time before I learned to follow, I had less of a learning curve. I'll concede the point. However, sometimes I feel like my follow is better because I don't have to concentrate as much - just follow the basic rules.
OK, there is the "not thinking" part - but sometime shutting your brain off is just as difficult as planning moves. It's especially hard when a lead isn't quite sure what he wants to do, and you have to take what he gives you and make it look good. And not take over the dance, of course. I've just started leading, and while it takes a different kind of mind set, I wouldn't say it's any more easy or difficult than following, after you progress to a certain point. There is a very different learning curve, but once you reach a certain point I'd say there about equal.

Part 1
Too few of today's readers remember how controversial (also here) the leaked 1992 Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) was in 1992. (This leaked DPG has apparently not been printed in full. Longest excerpts are at the end of this article.)
Prepared by OSD and published in the odd year, the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) contains "defense strategy and the guidance for key planning and programming priorities to execute that strategy." The DPG is a primary product of OSD planning as it is the SecDef's "strategic plan for developing and employing future forces." The stated formulation of the DPG is supposed to reflect "military advice and information recommended by the CJCS [Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff]; service long-range plans and positions on policy and other matters advanced by Service Secretaries; and CINC [Commander in Chief] appraisals of major issues and problems bearing on command missions."
This was the first post-Soviet DPG; the Cold War was over and there were expectations of a 'peace dividend' and some stand-down in US forces abroad. Instead the DPG spoke in stern terms of maintaining sole US superpower status and thus moving to quash potential regional hegemons that included the USSR's successor, Russia shorn of its former satellite republics, but also Germany, Japan and India, maintaining US force status overseas, retain the capacity to fight a multi-front war, and formally introduced preemption of another state's use of what we now call WMD (chemical, biological and nuclear weapons) even "where our interests are otherwise not engaged."
The leaked DPG of February 1992 dispensed with the idea "that American efforts would be centrally multilateral" and caused an uproar as it stated "We will go with whoever we can convince to bring us along and, at the same time, we'll try to keep the coalitions behind us." The more politic draft of May 1992 deleted explicit references to Germany, Japan and India while saying "Our principal strategic goal is to preserve these coalitions. And only if they fail, will we act alone," but the damage was done.
One cannot grasp the flow of near-superpower political action without adding China and Russia to France's view that "Its
There is a valid school of thought that the 1992 DPG was a continuation of US containment policy that rose from George Kennan's 1947 Foreign Affairs article, The Sources of Soviet Conduct, then written anonymously, that called for an end to appeasement, but the 1992 draft went well beyond containment, calling it "an old idea, a relic of the cold war," in the process enshrining unilateralism and
The three drafting authorities for the 1992 DPG were Paul Wolfowitz, then undersecretary of defense for policy, Dick Cheney, then defense secretary, and Lewis "Scooter" Libby, called to State, and later Defense, by his former professor, Wolfowitz. At the time of the 2002 National Security Strategy, Wolfowitz was second at Defense, Cheney was Vice President and Libby was Cheney's chief of staff.
Frontline's 2003 interview with Barton Gellman is recommended. Regarding the final public 1992 DPG draft:
The overall guiding language got much softer. But one important thing to keep in mind is this is a document that is designed to direct the military services, how they should spend their money, how they should structure their divisions and their air wings. Even though the language softens, they were told, "Your requirements are that you need to be able to pull off each of these seven scenarios in the appendix." Those scenarios continue to be a dual war with Iraq and North Korea, or repelling a Russian invasion of Lithuania. The sort of philosophical guidance got softer, but the hard planning didn't.
Regarding the 2002 National Security Strategy:
Whatever they say about who drafted it [such as Phil Zelikow's denial of linkage] and whether the world is a little bit different now than it was 10 years ago, I see a very strong overlap between the [National Security Strategy] as expressed today, and the first and very muscular draft of the 1992 [DPG]. You have many of the same players who are in primary positions of influence. You simply have to lay the documents side by side, and you will see huge areas in which they're the same, and frankly very few in which there are striking differences.
Regarding the Bush43 administration's approach to international condominium:
Bush has a very strong conception of America as consensus shifter, and as a country that can change what the market will bear globally in terms of balance of power, in terms of leadership of unfriendly countries, in terms of the use of tools that include economic sanctions and military force. Clinton saw himself much more as the steward of alliances and of consensus that moved in the right direction. He didn't see himself as someone who could change the overall thrust, I think, of global policy.
One is left to presume that the US approached Iraq in 2002-2003 with the 1992 no "nation building" lineage intact.
The glimmer of a new multilateralism to follow.

The receptionist was very friendly and gave useful advice regarding my stay at Bruges. Intended to leave the hotel at 3.30am to catch a train but she kindly suggested leaving later as the time would be more than enough. Was happy to heed her suggestion.
The owners were the nicest and most friendliest couple. The hotel cannot be in a more central location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again.

very friendly, close to the main square. local to everything needed.
United Kingdom
The location of this small, family run hotel could not be better placed. 15 minute walk from the train station and about 5 minute walk to the Belfort. They also own the chocolatier beside the hotel which only adds to the character and charm of the setting. This hotel is suited to those who prefer to be out rambling the streets that sitting in the lobby. I needed to amend my travel dates and Françoise was so accomodating.
Quiet and comfortable. Simple, clean room with excellent shower.
United Kingdom
The owners were very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was really nice, including home made jams. We were also able to leave our bags and pick them up later in the day. There was a great waffle and hot chocolate cafe just 2 doors away.

Pictured at Wright EN-Drive in Antrim, where the jobs will be based, are Mark Nodder, Wrights Group MD, Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster and Alastair Hamilton, Chief Executive, Invest NI.
Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster today announced that Ballymena company Wrights Group is investing over £14million in five research and development (R&D) projects and is also creating 130 new jobs.
The family-owned company is one of the UK's leading bus builders and employs around 1,800 staff in Northern Ireland. The new jobs are being created in Wright EN-Drive, the company's dedicated facility for the design and manufacture of integral vehicle chassis.
Announcing the investment the Minister said: "Wrights Group is one of our most successful indigenous manufacturing companies, and this is in large part due to its continuous focus on innovation.
"In the last five years Wrights Group has undertaken a number of successful R&D projects that have significantly boosted its sales and international profile. This investment will further strengthen its product portfolio and its ability to sell into markets around the world.
"The company has high growth potential as is reflected in the creation of 130 new jobs, which will generate £2.5million a year in wages for the local economy. It is also strategically important to the Northern Ireland supply chain."
The R&D projects include developing a range of low-cost premium class buses and coaches for the Indian market, low height and narrower double deckers for the Australia /New Zealand market, electric powered, zero emission single and double deck vehicles for the Hong Kong market, double deck and single deck buses to meet the operational requirements in Middle East countries, and a new integral chassis.
Arlene Foster added: "By tailoring its research and development projects to target specific export markets, Wrights Group will be well positioned to compete for more contracts across the globe. This is good news for Northern Ireland and for our economy as a whole."
Invest NI has offered £1.8million of support for the R&D projects, part funded by the European Regional Development Fund, and £650,000 of support for the 130 jobs through its Jobs Fund.
Mark Nodder, Group Managing Director of Wrights Group, said: "Our aim is to become a world class designer and manufacturer of integral public transport vehicles and evolve into a major international supplier to the worldwide bus market.
"This investment brings us a step closer to achieving that. With Invest NI's support we will be able to bring products to market quickly, and we anticipate that within four years we can triple export sales."
