Winter warmers

Girls Around Town’s favourite foodie, Lisa Holloway, will be back in the studio next weekend – and, along with some super winter recipes, has she got a lot of news to share since her last visit!

Earlier this year, she was featured cooking in Channel 4’s Journey To The Centre of Your Plate, then shortly afterwards her Channel 5 show To B&B The Best took her all around the country offering help and advice to would-be bed and breakfast proprietors.

More recently Lisa’s added yet another string to her bow, writing for Luxury B&B Magazine – it seems there’s simply no end to her talents…

As well as chatting to June, Tina and Sue about her experiences as a TV presenter, she’ll be sharing the recipes for a special meal that’s proving to be a big hit with guests at Compton House.  Celeriac and potato soup, venison stew and pear and ginger sponge are just some of the dishes on Lisa’s winter warmer menu – and all the recipes will be here on the website after the show.

Tune in or listen online between 10am and 12 noon next Sunday for the latest tasty offering from Girls Around Town!

Because three brains are better than one

You know how we often talk about having a gut instinct, a stout heart and a cool head? Well, that’s the language of our three brains talking…

Yes, you read that right – our three brains! – and if you want to know what that’s all about, you need to listen in this weekend, when the Girls Around Town welcome guest Tina Mason to the show.

A wellness coach with a wealth of strings to her bow, Tina recently trained in a revolutionary new technique called mBIT, which uses ancient wisdom and modern neuro-science to help us develop the best of ourselves.

She’ll be telling Fiona, June and Sue just why three brains are better than one – and how we can get them talking to each other!

And staying with the theme of  emotional wellbeing – something we all need plenty of right now with Christmas looming large – Fiona will be offering a few remedies for inner calm, even if those around you start behaving one currant short of a mince pie, along with some practical tips for pick-me-ups if you find you’ve been celebrating just a little too much…

Tune in or listen online between 10am and 12 noon and remember: Keep calm, it’s only Christmas!

The seasonal ads are everywhere, it won’t be long before the first cards start dropping through the letterbox and if you haven’t even started shopping for presents yet, it’s time to get a move on…

With the lights going on in Newark this weekend, the official countdown to Christmas has begun and the Girls Around Town are feeling festive!

Tune in or listen online from 10am to 12 noon on Sunday for news of what’s in store over the next few weeks – whether you’re looking for late night shopping, Christmas markets, concerts or carol services, there’s plenty to choose from.

Just before 11am, Honor Dunkley will be joining June, Tina and Sue in the studio to talk about some of the special events taking place in Southwell. Find out about music at The Minster, Willow Lantern Making Workshops, the Victorian Workhouse Christmas and the ever-popular Lantern Walk, to name just a few…

And if all that puts you in the mood for some festive fun, after the show why not head over to the Market Place for the Newark Christmas Lights Switch-On?
