CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Christmas approaches again with its annual

inevitability. Bah, Humbug. That attitude is not

why PHSG may seem to have ignored it this

year though and we are not having our

usual Christmas Dinner. Having nearly got our

fingers burnt (frozen rather) last year with the

early cold snap we postponed the dinner to

March and that gave us the idea of moving our

Annual Dinner date hopefully to more secure

weather. 2012 is the Twentieth Anniversary of PHSG and so our dinner in

March will be a special one to celebrate. We have booked Bentleys at

Dudsbury Golf Club and you’ll find the menu and booking form in this

Magazine. Our founder Jim Waine, and our President Dr Andrew McLeod

are invited as Guests of Honour and I’m pleased to say that both have

accepted. Places will be limited and I’m sure will be in high demand, so

please get your booking in

quickly. We have not totally

ignored Christmas though;

the Annual “Fun & Games” at

Canford School will go

ahead as usual on Thursday

23rd December with a little

competitive fun and non-

competitive snacking. Finally,

in this faster moving world, it

is getting increasingly difficult

to plan everything ahead of

time and last minute

arrangements are more

common now. Our secretary

sends out monthly

e-Newsletters with updated

and last minute information.

If you are not on his mailing

list send him your email

address with a request and

get locked into the

“vibe”. Keith.

TURNING OUT THE LIGHTS – by Sparkie

You may have heard that the good old 100W light bulb has been banned by our

dear green leaders, but perhaps you do not know that the good old 60W bulb is

on the way out too! Shops are only selling from warehouse stock now. Many

people don’t like “Energy Saver” lights or Compact Fluorescent types as they are

known, and in any case they are not always suitable as they won’t dim, so what

are we to do?

The answer is to switch to the modern standard quartz bulb known as a G9 type

and these are widely available and can be bought in any local electrical shop or

supermarket. They are energy saver type too as a 40W G9 will be the equivalent

of an old 60W, and a 60W G9 the equivalent of an old 100W.

You can buy an adaptor shown in our picture here and the assembly will replace

the old bulb quite happily and save you electricity too. If you really want it to look

the same, you can even buy a cover which makes it look just like the old

fashioned sort of bulb! They work in all dimmer arrangements too of course.

A good place to buy them from is Light Bulbs Direct which I have found to be fast

and efficient in their dealings.

For those who are interested in the Walking Group,

we walk every 10 days on Wednesdays and

Saturdays from 2 to 5 miles. Some of us round off

the day’s walk with a Pub lunch – Pleasure after

pain! If you require more information or the

Walking Book (£3) please contact me on

Medicine and Cardiology News from Poole

Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

Dear friends,I hope that you are all keeping well and that you havehad a lovely summer and looking forward to the festiveseason.As I said in my last article we have been making somenew senior appointments in the Cardiologydepartment and I am delighted to let you now knowwho these are. Sister Shelley Pasamar who has beensister for over 16 years has now been promoted toSenior Sister Medical Services and will work closelywith me over the whole of general medicine workingon standards, discharge and performance. Deputy Sister Anna Darling in CCUhas now been promoted to sister for CCU. Anna has been deputy for over 3 yearsand worked in CCU for many more. She is a nurse practitioner and runs many ofthe cardiology nurse led services, she wrote an article in the last magazine aboutthe cardioversion service. I feel very confident that these new appointments willhelp to continue to ensure the highest standards of service to our patients that wehave all come to expect, and I am sure you will join me in wishing them everysuccess in the future.It remains a very difficult time for us all in the NHS and service improvements andcost effectiveness remain at the forefront of planning when it comes to services. Iam pleased that within Cardiology we remain on target with our waiting lists andthat we continue to achieve our targets.I am working hard at the moment on the equality and diversity plans for the Hospitalto ensure fairness to all. It is something as a Trust we are heavily committed to andare looking at creating staff champions who would have some training and wear abadge denoting that they are Equality and Diversity champions. This would ensurethat not only staff but clients and patients who access our services will know whoto approach if they have any particular issues. It is in the very early stages at themoment but I will keep you up to date as this develops.Our new rehabilitation service for acquired brain injury together with neurologyservices is going well on Portland ward, and the transfer of dermatology to Arneward has also proven a success thanks to the hard work and determination of themedical and nursing staff.The medical investigations unit goes from strength to strength and we are currentlyevaluation other services that can be based there to support day case workingand prevent admissions. This again allows patients to visit daily as opposed tostaying overnight.So all in all we are as busy as ever. Please have a wonderful Christmas and happyand healthy start to 2012, Olympic year! Very best wishes to you all.Geoffrey Walker OBE JP RGNMatron Cardiology and Medicine.

If any one is reading this article could you please answer a question for

me and let me know your answer YES or NO:-

Have you or any one you know who has asked their GP for an

appointment/meeting with a consultant/specialist and the GP, having sent

that request to the Consultant, but has NOT had a reply?

I also attended the Dorset Stroke Network meeting, for Patient and

Public Involvement.

Meeting Chaired by Frances Aviss (Dorset Cardiac & Stroke Network)

Many Questions, comments, and suggestions where raised but one

subject in particular maybe interested in was:-

Early Supported Discharge (ESD) [For patients after a stroke]Deborah

Broadbent (Speech and Language Therapist) gave a presentation on the

6 month Early Supported Discharge Pilot being carried out by Poole

Hospital.One attendee asked whether there are visits to people’s homes

prior to discharge to ensure things are ready.It was explained that this was

done sometimes but not in all situations – depending on individual

needs.One attendee asked whether which PCT area you lived in affected

what service you received?It was explained that currently the ESD pilot is

provided within the NHS Bournemouth and Poole area but not the NHS

Dorset area – due to complexities with care provisionIt was felt that this

should not be the case.I suggested that information which patients/carers

supplied with regards to being able to cope at home might not be accurate

and asked if any hospital check took place to confirm the accuracy of the

informational check being provided. It was explained that there is clear

criteria that must be met before someone can receive ESD and that this

concern would be fed back to the team.

This point will be taken back to the ESD team

Concern was expressed that patients are being asked to make choices

about a future life they don’t understand.

This will also be fed back to the ESD team.

In addition to the Poole ESD Pilot, Bournemouth Hospital is also carrying

out an ESD Pilot. Both pilots will be evaluated to help inform future

service provision within Dorset. The views of patients and carers who

have experienced ESD are playing a key role in this evaluation.

If you have any comments on the above please let me knoLooking

forward to hearing from You

Dr. Boos

New beginning in Stroke Prevention in Atrial

fibrillation?

Warfarin has been in clinical use as a blood thinner for

over 50 years. Its greatest clinical asset has been for the

prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).

When used in appropriate patients, it has been shown to

be three times better than Aspirin and far better than a

placebo (nothing). However, like you, I am all too aware of the need for

limitations of Warfarin with the need for regular blood tests to monitor the

thinness of the blood (INR) and the many factors influencing its efficacy

(eg other medications, diet etc).

Hence, I welcome the arrival of the first ever licensed new oral

anticoagulant that does not require anticoagulation monitoring. In the

RELY Study of 18113 patients with a history of AF oral Dabigatran was

shown to be as good as Warfarin and even better ‘in some regards’ at

preventing stroke and circulation clots. Dabigatran received its European

Licence for this ‘AF indication’ in August and was approved for use in

Scotland in September 2011. However, it has not yet been approved by

NICE or the Dorset Prescribing Committee, thus restricting its use and

realistically it cannot be prescribed at present.

Before jumping to the conclusion that it is the better drug for you a number

of other factors (I will mention only a few) need to be strongly considered.

The first relates to the cost-benefit to the health care community at large

in times of major financial constraint. At just over £75 per month

Dabigatran is not cheap. Unlike the situation with Warfarin where

assurance might be obtained in knowing that one’s INR is therapeutic

and’‘in-range’ no such simple blood test, which aids compliance, is

available for Dabigatran, which has to be taken twice daily. Furthermore,

this is perhaps not the drug for people who have excellent INR control on

warfarin or suffer with indigestion or significant kidney disease. This is just

the beginning of a new and exciting chapter in stroke prevention for AF

with other rival oral blood thinners (eg Rivoroxaban and Apixaban) just

around the corner. Like you, I await NICE ruling (likely December 2011)

with great interest.

MEDICAL CLINICAL CARE GROUP

Practice Development Unit for Cardiology and Medicine

Quality Service Group Meeting

PHSG has a voice on this group representing its

members. This exciting group, under the very capable

chairmanship of Geoffrey Walker, OBE, Matron

Cardiology and Medicine, really gets things done!

Positive changes are made to hospital procedures, as

a result of patient feedback given to PHSG patient representatives. All

PHSG members can feed back information and experience about their

treatment in complete confidence, to Poole Hospital

If you want to say anything good or bad about your experience in Poole

Cardiac Unit, or its related departments including the ambulance service,

please forward your comments to me. I can be contacted by either e-mail

(preferred), letter, or telephone. All information will be treated by both me

and the hospital in the strictest confidence, and I look forward to hearing

from you.

At the OSG meeting on Tuesday 8th November 2011 Geoffrey Walker OBE

chaired the meeting and said that he had reluctantly had to cancel the two

previously scheduled meetings due to an extremely busy workload of

consultations and meetings, implementing the many changes brought

about by Government policy imposed on hospitals

It was reported that the hospital had reduced the number of beds by

150,but staff had been redeployed in other parts of the hospital where

additional support was needed.

It was also reported that despite the budgetary position, approval has now

been given for an extension to the Cardiac Unit by building on the roof.

This will enable a rationalising of space with room for additional Consulting

Rooms and other facilities.

We were advised that discussions were continuing on proposals for

Bournemouth hospital to carry out Major Cardiac surgery and Poole

concentrating on all emergency cardiac work pace makers and minor

surgical procedures.Consultants we now have Professor Kim Greaves, Dr

Andrew McLeod. Dr Diane Bruce

Dr Catherine Blakemore.Dr Christopher Boos (joint contract with the British

Army). Also we, as a group, will be helping management in discussing and

giving our views and suggestions as to how best to respond positively to

complaints the hospital has received from patients and other members of

the public. continued opposite

Report for the September talk ––“Disasters” - given by John Slow

John introduced himself for the few that had not seen him in action before.

Happily there were at least 30 people in the audience and John proceeded in his

usual ebullient way by offering some advice:-

1. Fit a burglar alarm to your house if only the dummy variety.

50years ago the sentence for burglary was seven years. People did not

lock their doors or have burglar alarms, the penalty was sufficient

deterrent. Nowadays the penalty is 3 strikes and one goes to jail. A

potential burglar avoids the flashing alarm just in case!

2. When driving concentrate on the bumper in front.

If you run into the car in front for whatever reason you get done for

careless driving and your insurance suffers.

3. Be sure and make a will especially if you have children,

Settling estates without a will can prove to be horrendous and your

partner can be forced to give up anything above £125K, including the

house, if the children are particularly aggressive!

Having given the advice John proceeded to recount the disasters that have beset

the world since BC 550 when the Assyrians all but annihilated the Israelites, 175

thousand killed out of 200K people. In AD66 a revolt by the Jews resulted in 750

people being crucified in one day in Israel. (Infamy? – ref F.Howerd). Mount

Vesuvius exploding in AD79 led to grey skies and thousands of people 16 feet

deep in ash. But it left later generations able to see what they had been up to in

Pompeii with their red light district, graffitti, and saucy murals! The plague in

1348 killed 50% of people in the UK and 3in 4 of our Bishops at the time. So

much for holy water!

John continued in this serious and factual mode with the Black Death of 1665,

the fire of London in !666, the Victorian era when 4 in 10 children died before the

age of ten. The 14-18 war when 90 thousand troops died at Eype on the first day

of engagement, and 250 thousand at Pashendale. These incredible losses and

yet all were volunteers up until 1916 and the rich still wined and dined and

holidayed in the South of France! By the end of the war 10 million people had

died of which one million were soldiers, to be followed, in 1919, by 4 million

people dying of influenza. The Russian wheat crop failure in 1921 accounted for

another 10 million, and in 1936 another 8 million Russians died. It a wonder that

there were enough people left to go to war in 1939 and yet they did, only for

another 50 million to perish of which 49 million were civilians and 25 million of

these were Russians. A war in which relatively few prisoners were taken. The

London blitz accounted for 40 thousand dead.

And then came Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the horrors of atomic warfare–– 190

thousand were killed. Will we ever learn?

John continued with some of the injustices related to collections for and pay-outs

to victims of disasters: the Munich air disaster - £158 thousand collected very

little paid out; Dianna’s death - £17 million collected – 12 million absorbed on

Meet our new PHSGSocial SecretaryMr. George Llewellyn

August talk.The Rev. Stuart Timbrell gave the talk entitled“Discovering Dorset”. It was advertised as “No, this is nota religious sermon”.Goodness me it certainly was NOT a sermon. The RevTimbrell is a very competent engaging speaker. On asubject he really enjoys he seems to be at his best. Thetalk was given at break neck speed and I don’t rememberhim coming up for air to often. You certainly could not fallasleep.Like most of us he is not a local, he came to the areawithin the last 20 years from Lancaster and threw himself into a study of the local history. This history is bound upwith local churches, people and tales. In the introduction heexplained that this is the 1st in a series of 10 talks, I suspect that 10 is poeticlicence but there are certainly more in this series (watch this space). Althoughretired he keeps young and active as the Chaplin at the local hospital of StAnne’s.To offer references he said he was on the “Wild Indian” talk circuit. Met byblank faces until he explained WI, Women’s Institute.

Before launching into the subject proper he regaled us with a story that I amsure you recognise. Now you live near the coast allsorts of relatives get intouch to arrange a visit or a stay. This is a cross he bares. An aged uncle anda myriad of youngsters during their visits need to be entertained and takenabout to see the wonders of Dorset. When I say regaled I mean it, his talk notonly caused a ripple of laughter but at some stages a great belly laugh. Anaturally very funny man.

He told us where we could see a very rare type of pillar-box with vertical postslot. However it turns out that almost everywhere he goes to give his talk hefinds another one. Not so rare then.

During the talk he describes his ongoing relationship with an archivist atDorchester Museum. He tends to do his research on the hoof, as it were, andwhen he finds something surprising he gives her a call. She is his font of allknowledge but, as he explained this can be very tiring and on someoccasions she has related her tedium, but I think they are still in touch.

There were so many tails and anecdotes I cannot remember them all or eventhe full details but one story included a red-hot poker and the backside ofEdward II.

As I said at the start, this was the 1st in a series and I intend to invite him backin 2012 he may then remind me of all of the details of Edward II.Don’t miss the next episode..George Llewellyn(Turn to page 7)

settlement of copyright in US court - £2–º million spent on Hyde park pond (now

defunct); Mousehole Lifeboat disaster – millions collected – 8 families got some

compensation – 8 families got nothing.

He also talked about the tragedies of Hungerford, Dumblane, Lockerby, and the

Tsunami of 2004 - 1 million people died but all the cats and dogs in Sri Lanka

survived!

But John then proceeded to recount the disasters of his personal life in a much

more jovial mood.

Did you know that there is a Nursing Home in Bournemouth where a cat predicts

the next inmate to die by sitting outside the person’s room? – don’t go there! Do

you remember where and what you were doing when the death of President

Kennedy was announced, the Hillsborough disaster occurred, and the Twin

towers were attacked – of course you do. But to John’s litany of disasters:-

At 3years old John walked into the River Stour at Longham Meadows and was

lucky to be fished out alive. At 18 he contracted TB, and minus one lung

volunteered for trial of Streptomycin which fortunately cured him. At 21 he was

involved in a lorry, car and motorbike accident – he recovered from a very

seriously broken arm with only a scar showing. At 29 he was knifed in court by a

guy who later murdered his own wife with a knife. At 33 John was blown up

when lighting a paraffin stove. And there was the time he was fielding close to

the wicket and was struck by a hard hit ball. He inherited a beehive and

unwittingly lifted the lid of the hive, got stung on the head, was paralysed and

then saved by a cortizone injection. Later he survived a ladder slip when picking

apples; ignored a sign saying “Do Not Dive In” to the Dead sea in Isreal and

nearly drowned; hit the back of the boat when para-gliding; fell asleep at the

wheel and collided with a central barrier in his car; and many other near misses.

He also suffered the embarrassment of having his trousers fall down whilst giving

a sermon in his local church.

John went on to things that happened in court and his charitable work which

proved to be embarrassing. Including the time when he took a coach load of

disabled people to Martinstown. The coach got stuck so he had to encourage a

group of people with zimmers and wheel chairs to push the coach to get them

started again!

The evening had started in serious mode and ended in John’s more normal

laugh a minute presentation. John can’t be a cat, he’s had a lot more than 9

lives – I’d say he’s more like a lion. Thank goodness he has survived to tell us

the tales!

Report for October 20th Talk –

Smuggling in Dorset––given by Bonny Sartin

After an introduction by the reporter which included

the rather feeble remark–“that I never thought that

I’d get so close to an Abominable Snowman”, Bonny

Sartin introduced himself. Yes he had had the good

fortune to have been a member of the”“Yetties” band

for 50 years or so, and in that time the band had

toured many parts of the world where their music

had crossed language barriers with ease. Having

written and sung songs over the years he has

latterly started writing poetry and books and

researching topics for talks which he now finds more

time for, since the band retired this year (2011). So Bonny launched into his

history of ‘Smuggling in Dorset’.

First though a poem by Rudyard Kipling where a strong hint of “Darset” dialect

came into play, followed by pirate song written by Bonny himself, acapella of

course. Then into the history. There are records of smuggling to avoid taxes as

far back as the 10th century. The monarchs of the 12th & 13th were keen tax

collectors, especially King John. An important commodity of the day was wool

and the Customs house on Poole quay was built to administer the excise taxes

due. Over the succeeding years grand lists were produced to guide the customs

men in regulating the trade to and fro through the ports. Curious items appeared

on the list such as a pair of silk gloves were taxed in full but left hand only – no

tax. So right hands were made in England and left hands imported! For a while

at least. There was even a tax on Prisoners of War. In the 17th century tea

became very important with the great tea houses in London spending fortunes so

taxes were levied on this valuable commodity. Well armed “Tea gangs” grew up

and smuggling became big business. And smuggling was indulged by all classes

of society either directly or by implicit support.

Bonny encouraged audience participation to ensure no one fell asleep, and we all

joined the chorus of “Row me bully boys, row”.

Bonny returned to the history and the period of the 17th century when most

Dorset folk seemed to be involved. Ordinary people provided manpower, farmers

the haulage facilities, and the gentry storage and other help. Stories of mile long

columns of wagons journeying from Osmington mills to Sherborne across the

heathland, hidy-holes under trees, church lofts being stuffed full of contraband

only to collapse on the church patrons next day. Galley boats sailing from

Christchurch to Cherbourg and back in one night. Much violence with customs

men being killed. Co-operatives being formed to support the smugglers, with

farmers and village folk earning more at night than in their day jobs. Customs

officers were given a hard time as they were not loved obviously, and even the

Dorset Militia, Dragoon soldiers and the Kings German Legion (based in

Wareham) only started to help the Customs officers when they were promised

half of any contraband captured.

Mavis and Jim Terry would like say a big thank you for the lovelyarrangement sent to them for their 50th Wedding Anniversary it is stillblooming and looking as fresh as it came. It came as a very big surprise tous and we were very grateful for it. We had a lovely day and one to rememberfor a long time. Thank you to the folk who like the cards I send out, Ienjoy doing it and please let me know if there is anyone who is poorly, Iknow how much cards mean to us we had 93 for our Anniversary. I cannotalways get to things now Jim has dementia but Ii am going to make moreeffort to get to the meetings. You all do a good job with PHSG and each oneof you have a part to play like cogs in a wheel and if one didn’t do theirpart the wheel wouldn’t work Mavis and Jim

the customs authorities not able to cope. In one epic stand off the navy had

arranged ships guarding a cove which were close into shore. When the tide went

out their guns became useless as the ships became grounded and keeled over

with guns pointing into the sand. In sailed the Smugglers and unloaded while the

navy stood by and watched!

Another shanty from Bonny, “Smugglers delight”, told of a similar event.

Finally tales of Isaac Gulliver a local of great renown; a smuggler who had the

audacity to actually attack the Customs men in Poole with his gang; was caught

and jailed, escaped and faked his own death using a coffin full of rocks;

continued his smuggling business, became a rich man and a benefactor to

Wimborne Minster, was pardoned of his earlier misdemeanours and was buried

at the Minster. His 17000 word will was extraordinary. Evidence of his activities

was found when Kinson Lodge was being demolished in 1952, which included

several secret passages to and from the building.

Bonny ended with another song, answered question from the audience, had a

cup of tea, and went back to home in Sherborne. A good evening having been

Exercise Group

Last quarterl highlighted some of the difficulties

we had with attendance due to illness and

accidents of our members. There are, of course,

other difficulties to deal with including the ab-

sence of trainers due to illness and holidays. A

lot of juggling is needed particularly during the

school summer holidays when Jayne, Jenni,

Paula and Livvy are taking holidays with their children.

Then there are the marathons, half marathons, iron man competitions etc.,

that most of them take part in from time to time as well as the sometimes

strenuous holidays they take!

Lesley has recently returned from a 3 week trekking holiday in the

Himalayas (last year she did

the Atlas Mountains ) and Emma goes surfing in the Caymans or Egypt.

Not many of you will have heard of Livvy who runs one of our classes at

Lytchett. Livvy is a trainer for Phases 3 and 4 at Blandford and she has

assisted PHSG with cover at difficult times. In turn Jayne has covered her

Blandford classes when Livvy is away on holiday. Livvy has undergone

heart by-pass surgery herself and is therefore a convert... and we all know

what converts are like! Such is the intensity of her training there, that the

boys at Lytchett have been thinking about getting a new T shirt with the

logo "I've been Livvied" on it.

We all know how lovely Emma looks at all times but I can assure you that

in wedding attire she looks absolutely fantastic. Her husband Richard has

latched on to this and, I believe, is hiring her out as a bridesmaid this year.

Watch out Pippa!

It has been difficult finding cover on some occasions but I have recently hit

upon a terrific wheeze which should help. We have within PHSG a mem-

ber (Alan R) who has been badgered by a certain doctor to exercise as

much as possible. I intend to invite him to stand in for our trainers particu-

larly at Canford where I will provide a piano to make use of his musical

skills during exercise sessions. That way we may be able to fool his doctor

and, as long as he doesn't up the tempo by playing The Flight of the

Bumblebee or some 'such number, it could be of great help to us all.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO DISCUSS ABOUT CARE AT POOLE

HOSPITAL ?

My name is Doreen Tobitt. I am a member of the Poole Heart Support

Group Committee. I have recently agreed to fill in for Alan Bristow on the

Quality Service Group which I attend with Jim Waine. The meeting is

chaired by Matron Geoffrey Walker at Poole Hospital and we discuss

matters dealing with organization and care standards.

I expect you would like to know a little bit about me. My background is that

I am a retired SRN. I then trained to be a Health Visitor. I worked in Poole

for 35 years in preventive medicine. I visited all age groups, liaising with

GPs and Hospital Clinics. In 1990 1 had a triple bypass and in 2006 1 had

a stent put in.

If you would like to discuss with me any aspect of your care at Poole, good

or bad, which you feel that I could raise with them then please feel free to

contact me. My phone is 01202 670137 and my e-mail address

I will try my best to find some way of answering your questions.

Epilogue of GLEE

Gary Lee hangs up the keys and puts down the pen after three

years both in, and supporting, the role of Social Events Secretary.

He did the Escoffier and the Christmas dinner, but was more in his

element at arranging the monthly talks. People will remember him in

his “Sandwich Board” guise which helped him keep in touch with

members. And there were those rather verbose reports which

helped to fill the pages of the Magazine. Speakers would look at

him rather suspiciously as he scribbled his notes while they were

speaking!

But he would like to thank all the members who have supported the

talks & events that he has been involved with. Also he wishes his

successor, George Llewellyn ( and his support team – the

committee), good luck, and hope that you will all continue to support

the social events whenever you can in the months to come.

So it’s goodbye from him – see you around – best wishes to all,

Gary Lee

Gary offers his characteristic slightly self-depreciating epilogue as

he hands over to George L and we would all like to thank him for all

that he has done for the PHSG over the last three years. What does

not come across from Gary’s epilogue is his conscientiousness and

his attention to detail in everything he arranged. Members may not

realise that due to the uncertainty in getting the keys for the

Postgraduate centre for the monthly talks, the only way to be sure

was to make a special visit each talk afternoon to get them and Gary

regularly set off to do this in addition to turning up in the evening.

Although Gary calls it an epilogue, we must not be so dramatic.

Gary is not leaving us, just passing along from a committee post and

we will surely see him regularly in future.

POETRY CORNER selected By Ron

Founded in Albany, New York in 1882, “Outing: A Journal of Recreation”

was a part of a new trend in catering to leisure time activities, such as

fishing, bicycling, and yachting. Walt Whitman published “The Voice of the

Rain” in August 1885, after “Outing” had merged with”“Wheelman,” a

cycling magazine. Whitman’s first choice for “The Voice of the Rain” had

been Harper’s Magazine, he noted in his daybook, but he sent it next to

“Outing” and received a payment of $12.

THE VOICE OF THE RAIN. By Walt Whitman

And who art thou? said I to the soft-falling shower,

Which, strange to tell, gave me an answer, as here translated:

I am the Poém of Earth, said the voice of the rain,

Eternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea,

Upward to heaven, whence, vaguely formed, altogether changed, and yet

the same,

I descend to lave the drouths, atomies, dust-layers of the globe,

And all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn,

And forever, by day and night, I give back life to my own origin, and make

pure and beautify it:

(For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfilment, wandering,

Recked or unrecked, duly with love returns.)

Monthly Meetings at the Post Graduate centre

Gary Lee is passing the baton to me next year and in my new role it will be

my task to book and present the next years talks, and also to write up

some notes on them for this Magazine afterwards if I can't find anyone

else to do it.

I wasn't sure what I had let myself in for when I attended the June talk on

the subject of Mongolia. It was poorly attended and I wondered whether

the talks had run out of steam and interest. How wrong can you be! I

suspect that the change from Thursday to Wednesday evening threw a lot

of the usual'suspects. The talks on the Lulworth ranges and the Dorset

one and Bonnie Sartin's musical smugglers in October were full houses

and showed that great interest in these evenings continues.

For next year some talks have already been pencilled in. The regular

address by Andrew McLeod is being organised and as an experiment may

be a lunchtime lecture at which we may invite staff from the wider cardiol-

ogy department. More details on this will be announced in a future e-

Newsletter. I hope that Geoffrey Walker will come and talk again in the

latter half of the year, I haven't discussed this with him yet so when he

read this it might come as a bit of a surprise. Robin Pringle has told me

that the rehab nurses at Poole Hospital want to be included; hopefully we

will not get exercises to do that night!

If you missed the Mongolia talk there is possibly some good news as I

have booked Shirley Critchley for January. She is another member of the

Blashford Snell "gang" of globetrotters and has promised to give her talk

called "Mutiny Mayhem and Murder ". Whist discussing the options with

her recently I got the distinct impression that this is her favourite offering! It

is based upon a visit to South America to find the remains of an old RN

War ship.

I have pencilled in a visit from the Russell-Cotes museum, I have seen a

presentation from a staff volunteer and I think we will all find this interesting.

If you have any ideas on subjects etc please let me know. My email ad-

dress is in the magazine. I must admit I have not been an avid talk at-

tendee but I have been to quite a few and always read Gary's notes

afterwards. I am impressed but I warn you now that I may not be able to fill

his shoes with the depth and quality of his reports.

NOT TOO OLD AT 86!

From time to time a Tiger Moth aircraft lands in one of the fields near

Deans Court, Wimborne. Martin the pilot is a friend of Sir William

Hanham, the owner of the estate, who for some time has been aware from

my grandson Jonathan, their Events Manager, that I was taught to fly a

‘Tiger’ in the early ‘40s whilst in the RAF.

In early August I had a telephone call inviting me to Dean’s Court where I

met the pilot and we had a long chat. The possibility of me flying was not

discussed and he went away.

About 10 minutes later I was driven in a golf buggy out to the field

expecting to be shown his aircraft but instead within a few minutes I was

kitted out and, for the first time since the Spring of 1944, I was in the

cockpit.

Once airborne I heard the familiar, “You have control” and it all came back

to me. I flew to the west and then turned back again and Martin took over

for the landing.

I never became a pilot (my landings were not good!) and eventually I

became a Flight Engineer.

Derek’s success at West Moors H.S. Summer Show.

We are pleased to report the success of one of our members at the West

Moors Horticultural Show held at West Moors this summer.

Derek Ashley,a member and an office volunteer of PHSG, is a keen

gardener and a member of West Moors Horticultural Society. He decided

to enter the Summer Show for the first time this year and was delighted to

win First Prize and the Marjorie Morris Trophy in the class for Hydrangeas.

He also scooped First Prize in the Pot Plant Novice section as well as the

third prize in the Pot Plant-Foliage section

It was a particularly memorable occasion for Derek as this year marks the

70th Anniversary of West Moors H.S. and to celebrate the event, a party

attended by over one hundred members was held in the village hall where

all enjoyed Music, Magic, good food and wine.

Derek adds that the Shows throughout the year are always of a high

standard and well worth a visit. If you are interested in becoming a

member of the Horticultural Society, further details can be obtained from

the Chairman and General Secretary, Mrs S Hamlett on 01202 871536.

My name is Rebecca Addicott and I am the Deputy Sister in CoronaryCare at Poole Hospital NHS Foundation TrustAs part of my role I have allot of involvement with the non invasive clinics, whichwe run in our cardiology outpatients. One of the clinics I run is the MyocardialPerfusion clinic (or MIBI for short) and Matron Geoffrey Walker has asked me totell you a little bit about it.I will not go into too much detail, as I am unsure of the depth of knowledge, so Iwill avoid medical jargon where possible, so apologise for those who wanting afancy scientific explanation!!Fundamentally the MIBI test is a non invasive test to try and assess the presenceand degree of any narrowing to the coronary arteries, which may if left untreated,could cause future coronary events such as a heart attack (myocardial infarction).The test has two parts to it a stress test and a rest test.The first visit to the cardiology department is for a stress scan. This scan will showhow well the heart is supplied with blood when it works hard. For this procedure wemake the heart beat faster which is normally done by asking patients to walk brisklyon a treadmill. If patients are unable to go on a treadmill we use a drug to make theheart beat faster and work harder. A small amount of a pharmaceutical and aradioactive tracer (Technetium-99m) is injected into a vein, when the heart is beatingat a predetermined rate. The injection is no more painful than a blood test. Thiswhole procedure takes place in the Cardio-Respiratory Department and is supervisedby a specially trained senior nurse.After the injection we monitor the heart while it returns to normal heart rate. We

then ask the patient to go away for something to eat and return to the Nuclear

Medicine Department for the scan, one to two hours after the injection.For the scan, the patients lie on a bed in the imaging room and a gamma cameraobtains the images.For the second appointment for this procedure (normally the following week) patientsare asked to go straight to the Nuclear Medicine Department where they will againbe given a small amount of a radiopharmaceutical (Technetium-99m). The injectionis no more painful than a blood test.After a wait of about one to two hours the patient is asked to return to the departmentfor the scan. The gamma camera takes images which will show how the heart issupplied with blood when it is beating normally.By comparing the images obtained on the two different occasions we will beable to see if there are any problems with the blood vessels that supply theheart muscle with blood.Gamma CameraSome patients may not require the second phase of this study.The amount of radiation the patient receives is small; it is comparable to that of anX-ray examination. The substances we inject are non-toxic and will not make thepatient feel sick or drowsy. However, we do recommend for radiation safety reasonspregnant women and children should not be brought to the Nuclear MedicineDepartment.I hope this gives you some insight into the test and if anyone has previously hadthis particular test, I hope the experience was as pleasant as a hospital appointmentcould be!! We do value any feedback, so please feel free to let us know how wecould improve this service.Many thanks for reading this. Rebecca Addicott

The Walking Group goes from strength to strength and the |Summer

Programme of walks was successfully completed on 5th October with a walk

to Durlston Head

Our thanks and appreciation go out to Cyril and Janette who led most of the

walks, despite their busy and very special year this year celebrating their

Golden Wedding anniversary. Our congratulations go out to them with best

wishes for many more years of good health and happiness. On those

occasions when Cyril and Janette were celebrating elsewhere, our thanks

also go to Mike and Mary for ably guiding “the flock” through the countryside

of Dorset, much to the appreciation of the group.

The Winter Walks programme is now in full swing with a programme of

walks taking us through to the end of March 2012. The 2012 Summer Walks

programme starts on Wednesday 11th Aril and those members of the group

who have registered to receive the Walking Book will be receiving it early

R.I.P. Jimmy Saville

Jimmy Saville had a chequered career, participating in many and wide activities.

He was a notable eccentric, not only in his later years but also in his youth. He

was calling himself Oscar at that time for some reason.

We present here an insight from the archives of the

PHSG cycling Group

KJM

From “The Bicycle” 1951

Meet “The Duke” . . . you see him as he appeared during

the Butlin’s seven day race - in action. It’s a pity you

cannot see him as he appeared each evening after

racing when, tuxedo, bow tie, cigar and all, he would

arrive for his evening meal. Officials and followers were

still in travelling togs; riders had not time to change out

of their racing kit. Yet somehow the “Duke” had managed

to bath, change and turn out like – well, like the “Duke”.

Who is the “Duke”? His name is Oscar Saville. He is a

company director. More than that no one succeeded in

finding out. He is a reticent character about his personal

affairs. He is riding in the Tour of Britain. He gave us many laughs during the

Butlin’s race, but he showed that he was no mean rider for all his humour. I only

wish that he has better luck in the Tour than he did in one stage of the seven day

event – on that day he suffered two punctures during the descent of Shap, had a

third puncture later on, went off course when trying to catch the field on his own

(finishing up in a ploughed field), and finally had gear trouble. But he finished.

Oh yes, he can ride a bike, don’t imagine otherwise.

Eating too much salt can increase your risk of developing high blood

pressure. Having high blood pressure is a major risk factor for both heart

disease and stroke. By reducing your salt intake it is possible to reduce your

blood pressure and your risk of developing heart disease and stroke, so it’s

well worth doing.

A lot of everyday foods are not obviously salty, but do contain high amounts

of ‘hidden salt’. It’s easier to make healthier food choices if you are able to

quickly check the salt content on food labels.

How Much?The average salt intake is currently 8.6g salt a day (about 2 teaspoons), but

we should be having much less than this – the recommended intake is just

6g a day for adults, less for children. Some of the salt we eat comes from:

the salt we use in cooking, salt we add at the table,Surprisingly, about 75%

of the salt we eat is already added to the food we buy.

Most of this comes from the salt added to the everyday foods we buy and eat

most often like meat products, ready meals, soup, pasta sauces, bread and

some breakfast cereals.

Switching to a lower salt choice of a food, particularly if you eat it regularly or

in large portions, can make a big difference to your daily total. Reducing your

intake of salty foods is an important part of a healthy diet.

Salt SumsSalt is sodium chloride, and as food labels often list both salt and sodium

content - it can be confusing.

To convert salt to sodium - divide by 2.5To convert sodium to salt - multiply by 2.5For example:

1g salt = 0.4g sodium0.8g sodium = 2g salt

Let’s Be PracticalChoose lower salt options using the following guidelines on food labels:

• high is more than 1.5g salt per 100g (or 0.6g sodium),

• medium is between 0.3g (or 0.1g sodium) and 1.5g salt (0.6g

sodium),

• low is 0.3g salt or less per 100g (or 0.1g sodium).

For ready meals and sandwiches - try to choose meals with

• under 0.5g sodium per meal, that’s 1.25g salt.

For individual foods - soups, sauces - try to choose foods with

• under 0.3g sodium per serving, that’s 0.75g salt.

Be Salt Aware• Use little or no salt in cooking and try not to add extra salt at table.#

• Leave the salt shaker off the table.

• Cut right down on salty processed foods and ready meals and try and

make your own if you can.

• Check out food labels for salt and go for lower salt choices. There can

be a really big difference between different types and brands.

• Compare the salt levels on a few similar products and always try to

choose those lower in salt.

• Ask in restaurants and take-aways for no salt.

The main foods containing salt are:

• salty meats and meat products such as ham, bacon, sausages, pate,

salami

• canned, packet and instant soups

• ketchup, soy sauce, mayonnaise, pickles

• stock cubes, gravy powder and salted flavourings

• any canned food containing salt

• smoked meat and fish, prawns and anchovies

• meat and yeast extracts

• cheese

• salted snacks like crisps, salted nuts, salted biscuits, popcorn

• high salt ready meals, sauces and takeaway meals like pizza,

Chinese, Indian

• pasta sauce

• sandwiches

• bread and breakfast cereals are an important part of a healthy diet

but bread and some breakfast cereals contain salt - compare labels

when you are shopping and choose the ones lower in salt

If you have high blood pressure, being active, keeping a healthy weight, not

drinking too much alcohol and regular check-ups are also important.

Take less Salt Take less Salt
