Yellowness of teeth might be due to tartar and stains on the teeth surface, which does not go by itself. You need to go for a professional cleaning of teeth that will remove stains and tartar so that they can be white again. Teeth cleaning is a recommended process every six months.

You can take b complex capsules once a day avoid spicy food. Do this to reduce ulcers. Consult a docrtor for medicine. With medicine your ulcers will be cure completely.
Asked for male, 20 years old from Barpeta
Dentist, Bangalore
Bad breath can be reduced or prevented if you: - practice good oral hygiene. - brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste to remove food debris and plaque. - don't forget to brush the tongue, too. - replace your toothbrush every 2 to 3 months or after an illness. - use floss or an interdental cleaner to remove food particles and plaque between teeth once a day. - see your dentist regularly -- at least twice a year. He or she will conduct an oral exam and professional teeth cleaning and will be able to detect and treat periodontal disease, dry mouth, or other problems that may be the cause of bad mouth odor. - drink lots of water. This will keep your mouth moist. - chewing gum (preferably sugarless) stimulates the production of saliva, which helps wash away food particles and bacteria.

Health Query
I have white patch on my tongue. When I eat some spicy food. It irritates. It was a small patch initially but later with time it spread and occupied a portion of tongue. What did you suggest in this condition. Can it be a fungal infection?
Oral thrush is a fungal infection which occurs due to dry mouth, uncontrolled diabetes and weak immune system with debilitating disease or patient on corticosteroids. You may need fluconazole & renal safety dosage of amphotericin B (IV drugs to be used only with the advice of oral & maxillofacial surgeons). Kindly consult an oral & maxillofacial surgeon in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need Candid ointment until then. Rinse your mouth thoroughly with a mouth wash.

I think we've all heard and said plenty about the challenge that
running back
will pose for the
this week, but it's just impossible to ignore this gem from Ravens defensive coordinator
during his weekly talk with the media.
"You put on the tape, and this guy is like a rolling ball of butcher knives," Pagano said. "He's scary. He runs over linebackers, he knocks guys out, he puts people to sleep. We got to do a great job as always of setting the edge and not giving him the outside. But he's a downhill guy. He can bounce, jump, cut, skin, he can do everything. We've got to get as many hats on him as possible and hang on for dear life."
Pagano was also asked whether practicing against
, similar in stature to Jones-Drew, has been good preparation for Monday.
"I guess you can say that," he said. "[Jones-Drew] runs like [
from the
physically, but he is slight in stature. Sometimes, it looks like he is two-and-a-half-, three-feet tall behind all those big linemen. He's hard to find, and all of a sudden, there he is and he dents you with his Riddell [helmet] right on yours, and like I said, puts you to sleep. It's hard to find him sometimes. We've got to do a great job of knocking the line of scrimmage back, getting off blocks and taking care of him."
Jones-Drew ranks third in the
with 572 rushing yards on 118 carries.

- Good speech by David Cameron
I'm Scottish and have lived in England for the last 25 years. I've never met an English person that gave a sh!t whether Scotland was part of the union or not. A much more interesting vote would be to get the English to vote whether the Scots should stay in the Union. I think the Scots might get a surprise.
For all the English worried they'd be saddled with Tory governments for ever if Scotland left the Union don't worry. There's never been a majority Labour Government that's depended on the Scottish vote for its majority.Posted 6 years agoepicycloSubscriber

…A much more interesting vote would be to get the English to vote whether the Scots should stay in the Union. I think the Scots might get a surprise….
I don't think so.
What other countries think of our desire for self-determination is irrelevant.Posted 6 years agoconvertSubscriber
It's interesting reading this debate but my feelings are that those with pro independence thoughts, especially those still living in Scotland often make the classic mistake of referring to England but actually meaning London and the commutable belt around it. It's a historically reoccurring theme for those that live outside of a capital city to feel alienated for political, social, cultural and financial reasons. Capital cities are different – big business and finance naturally migrate there and there is also a population immigration and emigration within the nation of those that want to chase power and wealth into capital cities and those that don't away from capital cities.
In this way I'm convinced those living in most of the rest of the UK (away from the home counties) feel the same way towards London as a lot of Scots do; it's just that living within England they are able to disassociate London from England in general where often the Scots in general are too socially lazy or unaware to bother.
But here's the rub – this is not a British problem or even a modern problem – distrust and social divorce from a capital city is a phenomena the world over and has been for all of history. And to TJ and his ilk living in Edinburgh… the uncomfortable fact is that the outlying areas of Scotland feel just about as disenfranchised with Edinburgh already for exactly the same reasons as they do with London. Cultural, historical and financial diversity within Scotland is almost as large as it is within the UK at large. IF Scottish independence goes ahead I guarantee that within my lifetime the disparity between Scotland's capital city the rest of country will have increased with the "common enemy" the English vanquished and exactly the same levels of dissatisfaction will have emerged within the new smaller nation. This is way it has always been the world over and will ever be so.
Declaration – born in the Highlands, parents have now returned to he Highlands – lived in England most of my life – think of myself as British first and would have had to think long and hard if I was to represent Scotland or England at the Commonwealth games if I'd been a little better at my chosen sport.Posted 6 years agoteamhurtmoreMember

Er, October 1974, total seats 635, seats won by Labour 319, majority 3. Total seats excluding Scotland 564, seats won by Labour excluding Scotland 279, majority excluding Scotland -6.Posted 6 years ago
Well David Dimbleby's researcher on Question Time got it wrong then. However one election victory for Labour in the last 70 years that depended on the Scottish vote is hardly evidence for Tory domination should Scotland make a UDI.
Epicyclo I just said it would be interesting I'm not daft enough to believe it would ever happen. However I believe that if Scotland did vote for independence there would be zero resistance from most of the English population.Posted 6 years ago
I find it frankly odd that everyone in the union might not get a say in independence for Scotland. Are the positives for Scotland mentioned thus far not negatives for the rest of the union?Posted 6 years agojota180Member

Now if the polls are to be believed the vote could go either way
so – imagine if the good folks of Scotland voted to stay in the union and the rest of the UK voted for them to leavePosted 6 years ago
How embarrassing would that be?
Why would it be embarrassing? Surely it would just mean that the majority of Scots felt they would be better off within the union, whilst the remainder of the union felt it would be better off without Scotland?Posted 6 years agocrikeyMember

Why would it be embarrassing
well, if the whole of the UK had a vote on it, they'd have to go if the majority wanted it 😀Posted 6 years ago
There wouldn't need to be a vote to kick Scotland out of the Union . All the English would need to do is vote for their own independence and leave the Union.Posted 6 years ago

Asian Oeic launches from Royal&SunAl
Royal & SunAlliance Investments is to launch Japan and Far East excluding Japan funds later this mon...
Royal & SunAlliance Investments is to launch Japan and Far East excluding Japan funds later this month, writes Leo Bland.
Royal & SunAlliance Japan Growth will be run by Jonathan Greenhill, an associate director of the group's Japanese equities team.
He will be assisted by Peter de Lacy, who has joined the equity team from Merrill Lynch where he was a portfolio analyst and assistant fund manager on the international equities desk.
Royal & SunAlliance Pacific Growth will be managed by Mike Hanbury-Williams. Both funds are Oeics and will be launched on 30 May. IFA commission on the funds is 3% initial and 0.5% renewal.
Hanbury-Williams is also taking over the management of Royal & SunAlliance's existing Far East including Japan fund. The portfolio was previously run by William Russell, who is being promoted to director of retail funds at the group.
Japan Growth will have a 50 to 60 stock portfolio and the top 10 holdings will make up around 25% of the portfolio. The fund will have exposure to companies such as Honda, Canon, Sony and Toshiba. Greenhill said: "We are mildly positive on Japan at the moment, as we believe Japanese industry is changing quite aggressively.
"We expect companies such as Toshiba to continue to do well. Japan is behind on the IT investment cycle and the lion's share of that kind of business will be taken up by companies like Toshiba. The portfolio will be underweight banks and overweight pharmaceuticals."
Pacific Growth will have a portfolio of between 60 and 80 stocks and Hanbury-Williams is looking to overweight Korea and Taiwan. The fund will also be overweight in Hong Kong and China in the belief this will be a strong growth area.
By contrast the fund will be underweight in the smaller Asian markets such as the Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand as Hanbury-Williams does not believe the process of reform has been going quickly enough.
The retail share class on both Oeic funds has an initial charge of 5% and an annual of 1.5%. Minimum investment is £1,000 lump sum or £50 per month.

Curl crush fever!
Always dreamed of rocking model-worthy curls? Even better, wouldn't it be great if you could get them at home, without having to trek to the salon to see an army of professionals? Well, now you can: simply by watching the quick and easy hair tutorial by beauty vlogger The LDN Diaries (AKA Paula Holmes)!
Following on from Zoella's '90s-inspired hairstyle, The LDN Diaries is tasked with recreating an iconic look from the noughties, for the latest decade in our 100 Years of Party Hair series. And the 'do that she's decided to bring us, is an oh-so-stunning set of soft curls!
So, if you want to learn how to get this gorgeous party-ready hairstyle, just watch the video above, or read on for our full step-by-step guide, below.
How to get stunning soft curls
Prep your hair.
This wash and care set is a great base for party hair, as it gives your locks a luscious sheen, as well as a huge moisture boost!
Apply mousse and blowdry hair.
Apply a golf ball-sized amount to the palms of your hands and evenly distribute it through damp hair. This will give your tresses the fabulous bounce and volume this curly hairstyle needs, as well as a light hold.
Once you've done this, blowdry your hair to activate the mousse.
Section and curl.
Continue to curl your strands in 2-inch sections, until you have a head full of soft curls!
Set with hairspray.
This nifty hairspray will instantly ramp up the shine factor of your strands, as well as make your 'do dance-proof!
Final look.
Now all you have to do is top off the look with a sparkly hair accessory, and get ready to make a grand entrance at every party you attend.

Regular price: $3.95
The 100 Genesis is the story of the human race 97 years before the events in the first episode of the show. The world is on the brink of destruction, and the only hope we have as a species is if key individuals manage to keep a cool head and steady heart as everything around them falls apart.
In episode one, we are introduced to familiar last names with new faces, the progenitors of the characters we know and either love or loathe - from the commander of the American Space Station high in orbit, to the president of the United States secreted away in an island bunker, and to two women separated by miles who will be key figures in the world after the bombs have fallen.
Would you listen to The 100 Genesis: The Day Before, Episode 1 again? Why?
Yes, the story is pretty good, but really enjoyed the narrator, I think she did a great job of bringing the characters to life.
What did you like best about this story?
The strong female leads.
Which scene was your favorite?
I enjoyed the "jail" scene. Thought it should a lot of character depth.

A Home Business - How Does It Affect The Children?
We all know the benefits of a home business. Working at home means that you can avoid traffic jams, forget about office politics and benefit from lower overheads. How does it affect the children? I believe that they benefit from hearing mum or dad discussing business on the phone or meeting business people at home. Think about it - whatever business you are in, if you were working in the office they would never hear a word of your business language. Most children are not even aware of the typ........ Read More

- Species: Cockatiel - Lutino (See species list for details)
- Location: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States 27610
- Date Lost: December 3, 2017
- Banded: No
- Microchipped: No
From Family-
I hope this post will give someone out there hope to keep praying for their missing beloved member of their family.
On December 03, 2017 at dusk my very bonded cockatiel flew out the door at dusk. At the time we were having appliances deliver. Immediately I began frantically calling for him, I could see the direction he flew in, however lost sight of him quickly. He flocked called me twice before going silent, as full darkness set in. I continued to look and call for him with no luck.
The days and several weeks that followed we searched the neighbourhood, posted over 400 flyers in a 4 mile radius. Several people thought I was crazy, however a few understand and prayed for Sunny aka Sunhi's safe return. We also posted on Fb, several vets office's, pet stores, etc.
Every few weeks, I would staple more posters everywhere. I was extremely deviststed, exhausted, and feeling so incredibly guiltily. I ran that day through me head a thousand times, and cried everyday.
I prayed that the Good Lord would protect him, feed him, keep him warm, and not allow anyone to harm my Sunhi.
In my gut I knew he was alive somewhere. When ever I was outside I would be looking up in the sky, trees, and yet no site of him. On occasion I would even think I could hear him flock call.
I just couldn't give up hoping and praying.
On Friday March 30th 2018 00:28, 117 days after his disappearance, I received a text, which simply read: what is your missing Cockatiels band number? I answered. Initially I though it was maybe a prank, since early during our search, prank calls happened frequently.
The more the person text me, I realised this was legit.
By now I'm praying, please Lord! Let this be my baby.
The person texted and said we are located about 1.5 hours away from you, however we'd be willing to meet you half way in the morning. How very nice was that, I thought to myself. Needless to say I didn't sleep at all that night. She sent pictures of the bird they found, and I sent pictures to them for comparison.
Fast forward to our meeting. We met at a pet store, Two of the nicest young ladies you could ever want to meet. They bought a nice cage, food, toys, and vitamins for Sunny. I mean they really went above and beyond to take good care of this bird.
So we go in the store, to make sure the bird doesn't fly away.
I look in the cage, and there he was..my beautiful baby. I have him step up on my finger, bring him to my face and look in his sweet eyes. I felt like it was a dream!
He immediately wanted to perch on my shoulder.
All you bird love lovers can relate to this next thing I had to do….I had to smell him.
Definitely my Sunhi.
The beautiful young woman who took great care of him said, someone found him in a random parking lot about a week prior, however had no knowledge of how to care for a cockatiel, so turned him into the pet store where the young women worked.
They soon realised that this had to be someone's pet, and in turn searched the internet, seeing my post on Craigslist. I am so glad I reposted every time the add would expire.
They wanted to be absolutely sure it was my bird. I told them, he is part of a bonded pair, and that my female would definitely know.
They allowed me to take Sunhi home, i even offered reward money to them, but they wanted the be sure. I'm telling you these two women were a God send.
Long story short, I take him to the vet, and received a clean bill of health, just a little underweight, very tired, and in full molt, likely for stress.
All went well with the reunion with my female, with both just staring at each other.
Day 2: the young ladies and I met in the morning so we could share the information about the reunion, and so I could at the very least offer a reward to them. No amount of money could express my gratitude. Lakayla and Brittney, I will forever be grateful. God used these angels to save my baby and bring him home.
We think someone found him soon after he flew out the door in December 3, 2017 and kept him, taking him out of town. I'm not sure how he ended up in a shopping center parking lot.
So to all you heartbroken people whose babies are still out there somewhere, if in your heart you can feel your beloved is still out there, keep the faith, keep praying for your beloved safety and well being, and ultimate return.
My Sunhi and I are proof that prayer works.
Thank you God for taking care of my baby for 117 days, through the dead of winter. I believe in the miracles of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Lost Yellow cockatiel named Sunny. Lost near Maybrook Rd & Lockwood Folly in Raleigh, NC off Poole rd. He is very friendly & will sit on your shoulder. Please call (919) 795-5339. Please share this post.
A reward will be offered.
Thank you

Fraunhofer IZI Granted Manufacturing Authorization for Second GMP Facility
News Jan 23, 2014
On 10 January 2014, the existing manufacturing authorization according to Art. 13 of the German Drug Act (AMG) of the Fraunhofer Institute for Cell Therapy and Immunology IZI was expanded to cover the first extension of the existing cleanroom facility.
After extensive qualification and inspection by the Regional Council of Saxony, the »Certificate of GMP-Compliance of a Manufacturer« was also updated. This seal of approval doubles the institute's capacities to manufacture cell-based medicinal products, or so-called »Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products« (ATMP).
Cell therapy products for clinical studies can now be produced on a total cleanroom area of over 750 m² in sixteen cleanroom class B manufacturing rooms to be operated independently.
The specific facility design allows for the parallel manufacture of several cell therapy products without the risk of mutual cross-contamination.
A separate part of the facility is furthermore specifically designed for the manufacture of products that must meet special safety requirements with respect to genetic engineering or protection against infection.
The operation of two separate and independent facilities provides maximum flexibility and continuity in the manufacturing processes, especially for bridging regularly scheduled maintenance periods.
A major part of the new facility is already booked out with manufacturing projects for various different clinical studies up to Phase III.
The staff consisting of 61 qualified employees currently handles both GMP facilities, the associated projects and the comprehensive quality assurance system. These professionals have profound expertise in the production and quality control of autologous and allogeneic cell therapy products, process development, and the validation of production processes as well as quality controls.
The cleanroom capacities of the Fraunhofer IZI shall again be expanded with a third construction section by mid-2015 to meet the continuously growing demand in this business sector.

Hi guys,
If you stopped by yesterday, you probably noticed that the site was down for most of the day while I was performing some upgrades. That's me in the picture fixing the broken flux capacitor. It took a lot longer than I thought.
The good news is that the site is now up and running and should be faster than ever before. I have plans to update the forum software over the next few months as well. There is a chance that some of the old site features like the casino may not carry over. It doesn't seem like anybody uses them any more anyhow. I appreciate your patience as I try to make this forum a better place to visit.

If you were to ask what my favourite things in the whole wide world are I would have to answer (after my husband and children obviously) wildlife and books. So imagine my delight when a friend introduced me to one of the most beautiful books about wildlife I've ever seen this week. A day later, thanks to the marvel that is modern-day shopping, my very own copy was hand-delivered to my door.
The Lost Words is an exquisitely illustrated, generously sized hardbound book with an acrostic poem or "spell" for each treasure of the British countryside it contains. Jackie Morris' watercolours of her natural subjects are beautifully observed. Robert Macfarlane's 'spells' (I now see why they are called that) conjure up the very essence of the animal or plant they describe. It really is a magical book.
I love the kingfisher page, not only for its striking images of the bird that shares its flame orange and brilliant blue with the wooden struts of the yurt roofs, but also because its spell really speaks to me of kingfishers. I was lucky enough to see a pair dart past me last year at the former mill in Bovey Tracey that now houses the Devon Guild of Craftsmen. I also adore the poem about newts – it is a ridiculously clever imagining of an exchange between a newt and a coot that has the element of nonsense poem about it…
We are fortunate that our children, Mia and Felix (currently 9 and 7), are exposed to nature on a daily basis – the buzzard hefting itself off its oak tree perch as we drive by on the way to school in the morning, the green woodpecker bobbing along the lane in its lilting flight, the call of the owls to one another across the valley at night, the flit of the bats over the pond, the blue tits and wrens nesting near the back door, blackberry picking, tadpoling, I could go on.
However, it is a sad fact that many children don't get to experience nature in this way. Many live in cities or suburbia, spending a lot of time indoors on tablets or watching television. If they're lucky their experience of nature comes about on holiday – rock-pooling on the beach, romping through a meadow, walking in a woodland, cycling along a canal towpath or paddling in a river.
An open letter to the Oxford Junior Dictionary in 2015 by a group of distinguished writers acknowledges that there is a "proven link between the decline in natural play and the decline in children's wellbeing". It goes on to say that "a generation ago 40% of children regularly played in natural areas, now only 10% do so, while 40% never play anywhere outdoors". How tragic is that?
Equally tragic is that names for features of the rural and wild landscape are being lost to children. They have been surreptitiously dropped from the Oxford Junior Dictionary (which is aimed at seven-year-olds) during the last ten years in favour of new words such as 'attachment', 'broadband', 'celebrity' and (somewhat ironically) 'blog'.
Katharine Norbury's review of the Lost Words in the Guardian hits the nail on the head when she says that "re-enchantment, re-engagement and conservation of the natural world is ultimately only going to be possible if we retain the language with which to make it happen".
At Blackdown Yurts we encourage you and your children to get back to nature. We've been reading another book during the winter while we are closed to guests – our Visitor Book – and it tells us exactly what you love about staying here and a large proportion of that is the interaction with the countryside of our hidden valley. You love the swallows, the bat walks, the lovely green views and watching the stars while sitting round an open fire. Come and see the hazel coppice and majestic oaks, marvel at the beauty of the bluebells and hedgerow wildflowers, or perhaps catch a glimpse of the deer family or the resident rabbits.
To help you interpret and enjoy nature at Blackdown Yurts this season we will be producing a wildlife spotter guide and updating our website and social media feeds with clues of what to look for and when. I will also be lodging a variety of wildlife books and my old Living Countryside weekly instalment magazine (that I collected religiously as a child) in the barn for you to browse while you stay and learn a little bit about nature. You can (re-)discover the plants and animals illustrated in the Lost Words in real life during your holiday.
Click here to be in with the chance to win your very own copy of The Lost Words. The closing date for entries is Monday 7th March.
How to find out more about the wildlife featured in The Lost Words:
Come and see it for yourself at Blackdown Yurts. We open for the season on Friday 30th March.
Visit Cricklepit Mill, home of Devon Wildlife Trust. Despite being in the centre of Exeter, the free visitor centre has reported sightings of otters, kingfishers, egrets and hedgehogs.
Keep an eye on BBC programmes such as Winterwatch and Springwatch. Winterwatch has just finished but you can catch up with episodes online. Springwatch will hopefully be back on our screens later this year. Their website has loads of clips, information and suggestions about how you can spot and help conserve wildlife.
We wish we had a bit more forest here at Blackdown Yurts. We have some young trees growing on the hillside and a few lovely mature oaks along the hedgerows (one of which the children call the Faraway Tree, they love to take a picnic up there and Felix got stuck up it once!). Anyway, what we don't have is a deep dark wood a la The Gruffalo, much to my husband's chagrin.
However this is more than made up for by the Children of the Forest, a forest school located just five minutes away between Croyle and Smithincott in a beautiful patch of mixed forest on a hillside with views of Uffculme in the distance. It was set up by Lewis last year and has attracted a loyal following of kids, mums and dads for their weekday sessions and also their weekend and holiday days. And you, our holiday makers, can book on too to experience their fabulous forest shenanigans (with 10% off their Summer Clubs – see below for details).
Mia and Felix attended a Woodcraft day during half term – a real life version of Minecraft where they had to collect different colour ores in the forest, exchange them for materials to make dens and evade the forest monster! They absolutely loved it, so much in fact they persuaded me to go back with them the very next day for a "Muddy Mums" session with leader Gemma. These happen monthly on a Saturday and each has a different theme. Ours was tracking animals. We had to leave trails to be discovered by the other team, sniff smells like badgers to find worms, play rabbits and hunters, as well as cooking bread, toasting marshmallows and popping popcorn (in a clever contraption made of two sieves!) over the camp fire.
They had previously taken Mark on a "Dangerous Dads" day where they whittled bows and arrows then had target practice! They also attended to help make a cob oven that is affectionately called the "Gruffaloven" and has produced such treats as marshmallow-topped tortilla pizzas!
I can thoroughly recommend Children of the Forest sessions – their term time weekday sessions are booked in blocks so won't be available to holiday makers, but the half term, holiday and weekend sessions are book as you go on their website. This holiday they will be running Woodcraft, Art Outdoors and Daredevil Days. Their holiday sessions cost £30 for 8.30am til 3.30pm including a campfire breakfast and are open to 5-13 year olds. Ideal if you'd like a break from your little darlings while on holiday in the safe knowledge they are having fun and being well cared for!
Dangerous Dads and Muddy Mums run on the 2nd and 4th weekends of each month respectively and costs £10 per parent with up to three accompanying children. I am also exploring the option of collaborating with forest school for home educator groups who stay at Blackdown Yurts.
When you book with Blackdown Yurts this summer you will receive a voucher code giving you 10% off Children of the Forest's Summer Clubs. To see what they offer and book on visit children-of-the-forest.com

One of our forthcoming guests has asked what kitchen facilities we provide and what is good to cook on a yurting holiday. I thought it might be handy to put this out there so everyone knows!
We think our facilities are great (and way better than camping and having to bring your own kit from home!). Each yurt has its own camp kitchen with a two ring gas stove with oven, pots, pans, coffee pot, teapot, and enough mugs, plates, bowls, cutlery etc for its occupancy.
Not only that but each yurt has its own Weber kettle BBQ with first night's supply of charcoal. Apparently there are a million ways (well 3) to use your Weber to BBQ (according to the latest Waitrose magazine whose writers must surely have read one of my recent FB posts entitled Come on baby, light my fire!). Plus you have an outside fire pit on which to toast your complimentary marshmallows!
BUT it doesn't stop there – if you like a bit more sophistication in your kitchen hop along to the barn where you will find all mod cons – two huge gas burning hobs – great for mass catering – a microwave, kettle and toaster plus HOT water for washing up. Whoop.
At the yurts there is a cold water stand pipe suitable for drinking and washing up, we provide washing up liquid, dishcloths and tea towels at the yurts and in the barn so no need to bring those.
Regarding what food to cook – well eggy bread and bacon is always a breakfast winner for me. We have had splendid meatballs in tomato sauce and pasta in the yurt barn. Sausages, mash and beans are always a failsafe. And if you don't feel like cooking at all I can thoroughly recommend the Ashill Inn's Friday fish and chip takeaway. Yum scrum.
If you take all four of the yurts for a party I'd be happy to cater for you – we can provide an authentic Spanish paella or a Mongolian-themed goat or lamb dish cooked freshly for you in our huge paella pan. Enquire with Katie at the time of booking. Subject to availability (yada yada as we always have to say just in case).
Here at Blackdown Yurts and Halsbeer Farm we pride ourselves on being as environmentally friendly as possible. We had a busy eco-April – cleaning a beach in Cornwall whilst on our own holiday, attending the March for Science on Earth Day to raise awareness of the need to protect the environment and guard against climate change, and getting quotes in for installing solar panels to try to reduce our dependency on the National Grid and fossil fuels (as well as save some money in the longer term).
It got me to thinking about ways we can be more eco-friendly while away on holiday as well as at home. Here are my top eight tips:
1. Clean a beach – we are fortunate in Devon in having some of the country's most beautiful beaches. The sad truth though is that rubbish often washes ashore or is left by day trippers. While you're on the beach you can spend as little as two minutes doing your own mini-beach clean while the children play. Better still get them helping and teach them about the need to clear rubbish, in particular plastic, off our beaches. Beach cleans are regularly held by organisations including Keep Britain Tidy, the Marine Conservation Society, the National Trust and Surfers Against Sewage. The Big Spring Beach Clean ran from 3rd to 9th April 2017 and the Great British Beach Clean runs from 15-18 September 2017 but you can do your little bit to help anytime. All you need is to remember a spare bag or bucket to collect your trashy treasure and then dispose of it responsibly when you leave the beach. We often holiday in Cornwall at Easter with a big group of friends and two years ago I invited someone from Keep Britain Tidy to bring along bin bags and litter pickers. It was great fun, great exercise and great education for the children.
This year Surfers Against Sewage sent us a pack of gloves and bin bags to facilitate our own clean before we went on holiday. One of the hardest things to find (and which become quite obsessive if I'm honest and could keep children entertained for ages) are "nurdles" – tiny bits of coloured plastic that are the raw material of the myriad plastic items we have become so used to. Also the plastic stems of cotton buds – many large UK retailers have now agreed to ban these thanks to a successful campaign to use paper sticks instead. Unfortunately the plastic ones are still washing up on our beaches.
There is a "nurdle hunt" this coming Saturday 13th May, 10.30-12.00 as part of the Junior Rangers Club at Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre. They are also holding a beach clean on Saturday 10th June at the same time.
2. Use reusable cups and drinks bottles for your holiday beverages – I have a friend who always travels with her "keep cup" and asks coffee shops for takeaway teas and coffees in that rather than using hard-to-recycle single-use throwaway plastic and card cups. Many coffee shops offer a discount on the coffee, a donation to charity, or double reward points if you bring your own reusable cup. A recent study suggested a fee for throwaway cups could reduce their use by 300 million a year. The UK uses 38.5 million plastic bottles a day, many of which end up in landfill, on the side of the road, or are eventually washed into the sea. Bring reusable water bottles with you for all the family and refill them with delicious drinking water from the tap. The water at Blackdown Yurts and Halsbeer Farm has filtered through the Blackdown Hills and is drawn from our own borehole, UV treated, sand- and string-filtered, and we think it is the freshest, sweetest, coolest water around. And best of all it's free! Remember to pack your Bags 4 Life or other reusable shopping bags for your holiday purchases too!
3. Say "no thanks" to plastic straws and stirrers in restaurants and bars and explain why to the waiting staff or manager. They are used once, thrown away and often end up in the sea where they can cause untold damage to marine wildlife. If you don't believe me check out this video of a turtle with a straw stuck in its nose that circulated on YouTube a while back – WARNING – this video is not for the fainthearted, but really demonstrates how damaging plastic pollution can be to wildlife. And make sure you cut up those plastic six pack rings from your holiday packs of lager before you dispose of them so wildlife can't get their heads stuck. There is a growing movement against plastic straws – biodegradable paper and washable stainless steel straws are now becoming popular alternatives. If you want to buy your own paper straws you can even find them in some supermarkets and home stores now.
4. Recycle in your holiday home as you would at home – most people are now used to recycling glass bottles, tins, newspapers etc at home and that needn't stop when you are on holiday. Most holiday homes should offer recycling facilities, and if they don't ask "why not"? We currently offer glass, card and paper, and mixed recyclables (tin/foil/plastic/tetrapack cartons). Our newly-installed kitchen in Cider Cottage even has a handy under-the-sink bin with three portable bins to help separate and carry your recycling waste to the large bins in the car park. We hope to install these in other cottages in due course. Until then we provide a crate to take your recycling to the separate bins in the parking area. In the yurts we also have food bins available for compostable food waste. We would love to provide food recycling in the cottages too if the demand is there – we're just working through the logistics of compost caddies, separating cooked and uncooked food waste and getting our garden compost area back up and running.
5. Don't flush things down the loo that shouldn't go down there – nappies, wipes and sanitary products (well anything other than number 1s, number 2s and toilet paper) will clog our on-site mini-sewage treatment plant, septic tank and reed bed. Use environmentally friendly products – we provide Ecover handwash, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and toilet cleaner to ensure the holiday homes are as chemical free as possible, to keep the good bacteria in the plant happy, and the treated effluent as clean as can be before it soaks away.
6. Turn off lights and heating when you go out. It's tempting to run the heating high when it's not your money paying for the oil – but excessive use of oil and electricity puts demands on the environment and contributes to climate change. Our buildings are old and unfortunately not very efficient so a lot of heat is wasted. Far better to run the heating a little lower and put a jumper on. Make sure the heating and lights are off when you go out. If you are unsure how to use the heating controls please ask. Ultimately we will have to put our prices up if oil and electricity consumption remains at current levels and wholesale prices continue to rise. As well as looking into solar panels we are looking to replace all of the lightbulbs in the properties with more energy efficient LEDs. How many people does it take to change a hundred lightbulbs I wonder?
7. Limit your food waste and buy local to reduce food miles and support local business. You can't get more local than Kentisbeare's own village shop that stocks veg grown by local gardeners and farmers along with a host of other groceries and fresh bread daily. I saw beautiful duck and quails eggs in there the other day, plus fresh asparagus is available from a farm a skip and a hop from Halsbeer. Why not catch your own mackerel on a boat trip from Beer or order a meat box from Forest Beef in the Blackdowns. If you do overbuy on holiday, either take the surplus food with you or, if you can't, for example ice cream or other perishables, please leave it in the fridge/freezer and we will put it to good use.
8. Remember the country code.

I don't know about you but when I'm on holiday I always like to sample local food and specialities of the region in which I'm staying. I'm also always on the lookout for producers who uphold the best in welfare and environmental standards too. A few weeks ago I found out about an award-winning* farm in the Blackdowns that rears English Longhorn Cattle and are looking to provide meat boxes to self-catering holiday businesses in the local area. Russ and Becky graze their rare breed stock on Forestry Commission** land during the summer months which helps to manage the land extensively while growing great-tasting beef (Longhorn steak was voted best tasty steak in Britain by Country Life Magazine). They also have pigs and chickens which (when bird flu isn't around) roam around in lovely grassy, tree-filled ranges. The children and I went on a little outing during the February half term to meet Becky and the cattle and collect a meat-box to see what we thought of the produce.
The farm is in Churchstanton which is just under half an hour from Halsbeer Farm and Blackdown Yurts via a fairly winding route through Culmstock and Hemyock or a straighter route that passes the Smeatharpe banger racing track. On arrival we met Becky and her two young children next to her farm shop. Becky spoke with enthusiasm about their longhorns as she showed us around the barns where they are housed for winter. We were lucky enough to see a sub-one-day-old calf, still wet and wobbly on it legs. We saw other calves of varying ages all of whom seem to have lucked out in the eyelash stakes. There were a lot of mums (do we call them heffers?) plus a huge bull who has a fancy pedigree name I can't recall but who most of the time goes by the name of Pete. The cattle really are impressive, both males and females have huge horns that either curve forwards or extend out to the sides of their head, reminiscent of a prize rodeo bull in the American mid-west. Their coats are patterned with brown or grey and white and have varying degrees of curl. We saw a stunningly beautiful chestnut brown and white hide that had been all the way to Italy and back for a professional tan. Becky retails them for between £400 and £600 and I can see why, it would look amazing on the floor of a designer flat or maybe as a rug in a yurt (wishful thinking).
Before we left Becky delved deep in the farm shop freezers and put together a bumper selection box for us to take home and try. Bacon that Becky cures herself, chipolata sausages, two rump steaks, some beef mince and minute steak. Plus a half dozen eggs for good measure. So sausages it was for tea that night – the kids and I really enjoyed them, they were good and meaty, testament to their being 85% meat and minced shoulder pork at that. They were fairly peppery and I think I could also taste mace, but no doubt Becky won't reveal her secret spice blend to me.
Next up we made a cauliflower macaroni cheese with a topping of crispy bacon and breadcrumbs. Becky confided in me that the small white pigs that had provided this bacon were a fattier breed than they sometimes have. The bacon was more marbled than I've ever seen before and they did have a wide strip of far beneath the rind. On the face of it, this seemed like a lot of waste if, like me, you don't like to eat that much fat, but on the plus-side the garden birds enjoyed a real treat. The marbling in the bacon meant that it crisped beautifully in the Aga. It was quite salty (as bacon often is of course) and topped our supper off perfectly. (Top tip – we added a teaspoonful or two of pesto to our cheese sauce which really enhanced our cauli-mac-cheese!).
To accompany the rump steak I made a cheats version of a potato dauphinoise – sliced potatoes, thinly sliced onions, a couple of crushed garlic cloves mixed in with creme fraiche, a bit of chicken stock, a teaspoon of dijon mustard, some thyme leaves, salt and pepper, all turned into an oven proof dish, topped with grated parmesan, whacked in the microwave for a few minutes to give it a head start then into the Aga until it was golden and bubbling to perfection. We wanted to try the steaks "au naturel" to get a real sense of the flavour and texture so I got a pan really hot and added some oil (I used a blend of olive and vegetable only to be informed by him indoors who had been researching frying steaks online that groundnut oil is best as it has a higher smoking point, but hey ho, too late they were in by then). The steaks were fairly chunky so I gave them a few minutes each side to get a good sear then a good five minutes resting. They cut beautifully and were really tasty with the dauphinoise, peas, beans and a good Rioja. (In my book it is sacrilege to attempt to eat a steak without red wine!) Felix absolutely loved the entire meal, Mia who is not normally a big meat eater really enjoyed the meat and I thought it was utterly delicious – a good full-bodied steak. Becky had said it would be gamier than normal beef and perhaps it was but not off-puttingly so. I would definitely have their steaks again. Two fed four of us (two adults, two children) adequately.
Possibly the best bolognese in the world! We have some gorgeous friends Tom*** and Jennie who have come and helped out on the farm during the last two half terms and always bring a meal with them. This time Tom had made Jamie Oliver's classic spaghetti bolognese. It was so delicious I decided to try the same recipe with the Forest Beef mince. OMG. The gamey flavoursome mince of the longhorns lends itself really well to a rich ragu such as Jamie's which is bursting with the flavour of streaky bacon, sun-dried tomatoes and rosemary as well as a slosh of red wine. This is my new go-to bolognese recipe and I think the longhorn mince is absolutely ideal for it.
That just left the minute steak – what is that all about then? Minute steak? Cooks in a minute? Apparently so. Often they are beaten with a meat tenderiser to get the even thin appearance and make the meat go further. I'd heard they made a good steak sandwich so I gave it a go. Flash fried the steak, added red onions that had been slow roasting in the AGA all morning, some sliced roasted red pepper from a jar, some salad leaves and a smear of wholegrain mustard on one side of a sliced white cobb loaf and a splodge of mayo on the other. Scrumptiousness.
If I've whetted your appetite and you want to try Forest Beef for yourself, then you can visit the farm shop or you can order a box to be delivered direct to Halsbeer Farm and Blackdown Yurts via their website
Their holiday meat box costs £39 plus £6 delivery. You can view the contents here
Forest Beef will be at Cullompton's Spring Fest with their wares on 8th April 2017 and they are having a farm open day on 11th June 2017.
*Becky and Russ won "Beef Farm of the Year" in the NSF Agriculture Farm Assurance awards in 2015-2016.
**The collaboration with the Forestry Commission came about through the Neroche Scheme: a "partnership for forest, land and people in the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty". I was curious about the word "neroche" and discovered by looking at the Scheme's website that there is a Castle Neroche on the wooded escarpment at the north of the Blackdowns. Neroche in Old English means something along the lines of "the camp where hunting dogs were kept". The website has loads of suggestions of things to do in the northern Blackdowns including "herepath walking trails.
***Big thanks to Tom (www.tomwellerphotography.com) for some of the (best) images of the cattle on this blog!
This is the first in what I hope will be a fairly regular blog on the Blackdown Yurts webpage exploring our beautiful hidden valley, experiences of glamping in the authentic Mongolian yurts we have here, things you can do while staying, places you can go nearby, campfire cooking, educational and environmental topics including wildlife, eco-tips, organic gardening and so on. Please do get in touch if there is anything in particular you'd like to ask me about the yurts, the Blackdown Hills, Devon or our life here in general!
