It’s great to be able to start the new year with something to cheer about.The announcement by de Gruchy of plans to spend nearly £15 millionre-vamping and expanding their St Helier store has to be a very welcomeone. Whatever views there are on the design of the new development,everyone should greet the decision to invest in our high streetpositively. It demonstrates bold confidence in retail, in S tHelier and in Jersey as a whole. Capital will be sure totrack progress as it happens.

The de Gruchy investment comes against otherwelcome news of falling unemployment, an increase invisitor numbers and signs of life in the local housing market.The uncertainty that has hung over Jersey’s economy is showing signs ofclearing. Could this finally be the year when those tentative green shoots ofrecovery fully burst into flower? A summer full of blue skies and warmsunshine would certainly help.

Here’s looking forward to 2015.Editorial Team

After an awkward standoff with the Parish, Jersey Electricity received permission in2013 to build the huge substation. The £12 million installation is required to relievepressure on the existing electricity supply infrastructure. The organisation had warnedthat without the new substation, St Helier risked power shortages, particularly in viewof planned developments on the Esplanade quarter. The Westmount site wasidentified as ideal given its location and distance from existing residential areas.

The resistance to building the substation came from the loss of public land and thepotential scale of the development. In a final agreement, both Jersey Electricity andthe States agreed to compensate the Parish, the latter by gifting an area of woodlandnext to Westmount Gardens.

There was also an agreement to minimise the visual impact of the new building –which will bepartly buried in avery large hole.

Worth lookingin to should you bepassing.

Anyone driving past or walking through Westmount Gardenscannot have missed the expanse of green wooden hoardingsto appear among the trees there. It’s the first step in aconstruction project to build a new electricity substationplanned to ensure St Helier’s lights stay on in the future.

Ice skating leaves legacy

Over the past few years, anumber of young local iceskaters have taken part inthe Skate UK Programme.With the support of IceSkate Jersey’s residentprofessional coach, they have progressed through theprogramme’s eight levels and are now working on Bronze,Silver and Gold levels.

The junior hockey side also used the rink to developtheir skills. Special sessions held early on Sunday morningssaw 15 youngsters training on the ice and enjoyinglearning new techniques. Forty adult skaters also signed upfor the twice-weekly senior hockey sessions, someex-amateur hockey players who had learnt their skills inCanada, Latvia and Poland.

This was the event’s second season at Fort Regent,which proved to be an excellent location once again.

…Maurice’s Jubilee, atouching and life-affirmingplay that will be at the ArtsCentre from 17 to 21February.

The story focuses on Maurice, a former jeweller living outhis twilight years clinging on to a life-changing event 60years earlier. Back then, a brief royal encounter with theQueen resulted in a pledge to meet him on his 90thbirthday.

While most of those around Maurice have little beliefthat this will ever happen, his carer, Katie, sees a way tomake his dream come true. The audience are left towonder whether the whole thing is just an illusion, or isthere any truth behind Maurice’s Jubilee?

The play is written by Olivier award-winning actressNichola McAuliffe, and was a Edinburgh Festival highlightduring the Queen’s Jubilee year.

Jack Higgins Productions will be the first regionalcompany to present the play. Proceeds will go toMacmillan Jersey.

Multi-million pound boost forSt Helier’s high streetOne of Jersey’s oldest retailers has recently announced plans for a massive development of itstown centre premises. De Gruchy is intending to invest up to £15 million in the scheme, which willsee the well-known King Street department store transformed and expanded. Given ongoinguncertainty over the future of traditional retail business, the ambitious plans have been welcomedas a vote of confidence in St Helier’s high street.

The remorseless rise of online shopping hascast a dark shadow over traditional retailbusiness in recent years, leading to direwarnings on the future of the high street.While this shopping revolution may haveaffected Jersey less than other places in theUK, the Island is certainly not immune tochanging consumer habits. Empty retailoutlets are just one symptom of this. A senseof gloom among remaining retailers isanother.

Given this situation, local industry leadersand politicians have welcomed de Gruchy’sannouncement of a multi-million poundinvestment in its St Helier business. Plansinclude transforming the existing King Streetdepartment store and redeveloping the NewStreet side of the premises. The developmentwill create 20,000 square feet of additionalretail space, resulting in a total floor size of37,000 square feet. Included in thedevelopment are new central escalators.

Among those to welcome the plans is TownCentre Manager Daphne East. ‘It is excellentnews to see this kind of investment in ourretail area. When the rest of the UK is stillseeing a decline in investment and this kindof project on the high street, it is hearteningto know that Jersey, and St Helier in particular,can still attract development on this scale.

Below:The plans included retaining theexisting King Street facade

It is also exciting to see a company that has traded onour high street for the last 200 years making this kindof commitment to the future of retail in Jersey.’

The intention is for the store to remain open whilethe work is undertaken. Once complete, the new storeplans to offer a state-of-the-art retail experience in theheart of St Helier. Alongside existing departments andservices, there is the promise of new brandcollaboration, including one with leading retailer Next.

Plans for the development have been submitted tothe Planning Department. Subject to permission, workwill start in 2015 and take two years to complete.

The has been a shop bearing thename De Gruchy on St Helier’sKing Street for nearly 200 years.

It was opened by Abraham De Gruchy, whohad previously traded from premises in StPeter and then Broad Street. In 1824, hepurchased 52 King Street, during a period oftremendous growth in St Helier. The newstore, trading under the name A de Gruchy,quickly gained a reputation for innovativeretail. As well as offering ranges of goods notpreviously seen in Jersey, it included cuttingedge technologies including gas and thenelectric lighting.

The store expanded in size during the19th century, swallowing up adjacentproperties to reach the layout found theretoday. Abraham continued in charge of thebusiness until retirement after when his sonsWilliam and Philippe took over control.

Today, de Gruchy is part of the UlsterStores Group, having been acquired by that company in 2006. u

romanceSealed witha loving kiss

Romance is in the air. Across St Helier on 14 February,love-struck souls will be anxiously awaiting a special delivery. Be ita card, flowers, chocolates or something more extravagant,Valentine’s Day is the time to declare eternal love for that specialperson in your life. As hopeless romantics, Capital wanted to findout more about this celebrated occasion, and asked one localretailer how far Islanders go to show off their affections.

‘It’s not as busy as it used to be in the run up to Valentine’sDay,’ explains John Hornsey, owner of Just Write card shopin Beresford Street, ‘we see less young people buying cardsand gifts these days, but then perhaps they are sendingtheir Valentine’s messages over the internet. The peoplewho really still take the occasion seriously are those over40. I imagine they have always sent a Valentine’s card, andalways will.’

Valentine’s cards tend to goon sale just after Christmas, andremain available for a few daysafter 14 February. ‘We leave themout for those who forgot to send oneon the day itself,’ says John, ‘and aredesperately trying to make amends. Iwouldn’t like to be in their shoes.’

There are three categories of Valentine’sDay card it seems. There are Traditionalcards, featuring cupids and love hearts;Cute cards, full of puppies and teddy bears;and Humorous cards, with often more racyovertones.

‘All are popular with Islanders,’ Johntells us, ‘which one suits best usuallydepends on what stage therelationship is at.’

But where does the whole Valentine’s Daytradition come from? The original Saint Valentine, orValentinius in Latin, was a Christian martyr living in Romeduring the third century and commemorated on 14February by the Catholic Church. Since the Middle Ages,Valentine has been associated with love.

Our modern day preoccupation with Valentine’s Daygoes back around two hundred years. At the end of the18th century, printers began producing cards called‘mechanical valentines’ that featured romantic words andimages. The development of a universal postal service in theyears that followed made it easier to send ‘Valentines’anonymously, and so the tradition began.

In 1835, 60,000 Valentines were sent, some simplepaper cards, some more elaborately decorated with laceand ribbon. Eventually, Valentine’s cards became massproduced and widely available. By the second half of the20th century, cards were being supplemented by additionalgifts, including flowers, chocolate and even jewellery.

Today, the US Greeting Card Association estimates thatapproximately 190 million valentines are sent each year in

u


Above: Traditional Valentine’s Daycard from around the startof the 20th century

America. The BritishRetail Consortiumestimates that people inBritain will splash outaround £1.3 billion onValentine’s Day – an average of

£119 per adult. ‘In Jersey, sales of Valentine’s cards are lowerthan those on other significant occasions,’commented John. ‘Christmas is our busiesttime, followed by Mother’s Day and thenEaster. Valentine’s Day is in fourth spot whilelowest are sales of Father’s Day cards. Poorold dads get thought of least. And givenwhat’s happening to card sales generally, Ican’t see these positions changing.’

The rise of the internet as a medium for sendingmessages does seem to be an inevitable trend thesedays. In this increasingly digital world, there may beless and less room for sending actual cards. But weneed to be especially careful when it comes toValentine’s Day. Woe betide anyone who sends anemail when their partner was expecting roses.

‘Don’t take a chance,’ is John’s parting warning, ‘weare open from 8.30am to 5.00pm, Monday toSaturday, so there is no excuse for forgettingValentine’s.’ u

Young and trendy insupport of good causesLast month’s edition of Capital featured Little Miracles, a recentlylaunched local charity aimed at supporting parents with babies in specialcare. This month, we heard from St Helier school Beaulieu about afashion show planned to raise funds for this very deserving cause.

Little Miracles is a charity close to theheart of 18-year-old Hattie O'Brien.Eighteen years ago, the Beaulieu A-Levelstudent spent time in the special careunit after birth at the General Hospital. InFebruary, Hattie and her fellow textilestudents are planning a fashion show insupport of Little Miracles and the MultipleSclerosis Society of Jersey.

‘Textiles has been a passion of minesince I first started studying the subject inYear 7’, Hattie explained to Capital, ‘and Iam very much inspired by local artists andthe environment our Island has to offer. Thefashion show is a chance to show off ourwork and raise funds for two veryworthwhile charities.’

The event, which takes place in St Mary’s and St Peter’sChurch on Thursday 26 February, will showcase work fromYear 9 through to Year 13 students. This includes both GCSEand A-Level pieces inspired by a diverse range of thoughtsand ideas and selected to show off a wide variety oftechniques and materials.

Tickets priced at £4 for adults and £2 for students areavailable beforehand from Beaulieu School or for purchase onthe night. Lights refreshments will be available and there willbe a small raffle.

New forecourt at First Tower in keeping with tradition

business

A popular petrol forecourt and service station hasreopened at First Tower, providing resident andpassing motorists with a convenient stop off pointto refuel. Capital visited to find out more.

The Fuel is the part of the Mansell group of high quality motoringbusinesses, and will offer quality products supplied by RUBiS. Thestation has undergone an 18-month transformation since it wasbought by The Mansell Collection in 2013, whose chairman is NigelMansell, including architectural nods to the iconic Art Deco-styledesign of the Mansell Collection further up St Aubin’s Road.

There has been a petrol station on the site at least as far back asthe 1920s when there were just two pumps standing road-side infront of a small cottage. RUBiS has been supplying products throughthe forecourt for many years.

A great deal of thought and planning has gone into therefurbishment of the garage, including installing state-of-the-artpumps and new storage tanks beneath the forecourt with the projectteam overcoming significant engineering challenges.

The completed petrol station has been designed to meet the verylatest national and local guidelines, which have been drawn up inconsultation with petrol station operators across the UK. As thenewest petrol station to open in Jersey, The Fuel therefore benefitsfrom national expertise as well as abiding by local regulations.

Nick Crolla, Head of Sales & Marketing at Fuel Supplies CI Limitedsaid, ‘The Fuel has been completely transformed from how it wasbefore. It has always been an extremely well-run and popular servicestation, but the redesign of the forecourt will give customers a muchbetter experience when they stop off to fill up. This is the start of anexciting partnership between RUBiS and the Mansells, which will gofrom strength to strength.

Leo Mansell of The Mansell Collection added, ‘The Fuel is secondto none in Jersey. It has been mine and my father Nigel’s dream tocreate a very modern forecourt, with a Formula 1 style service areabehind it. We are very proud of what has been achieved.’

The service area will house part of the Full Service Centre, which isalso part of the Mansell group of companies, providing after-salescare not only for Mitsubishi owners but drivers of all makes ofvehicle.

Right: Leo Mansellof the MansellCollection


The Fuel re-opened just before Christmas and an official launch was heldtowards the end of January, for customers of RUBiS and The Mansell Collection.At the launch a competition was announced offering RUBiS card holders thechance to win £100 worth of fuel each month, whenever they fill up with 30litres or more of petrol at The Fuel. At the end of the year, all 12 monthly prizedraw winners will be entered into a competition to win a brand new Mitsubishicar worth more than £12,000, together with three years’ free servicing.

Nick Crolla said ‘This is a great competition to reward customer loyalty and itis open to new and existing RUBiS Card holders. To enter the competitionmotorists can pick up a RUBiS Card application form from the forecourt kiosk,or our head office at La Collette.’

The Fuel sells Premium Unleaded, Super Unleaded and Diesel as well as afull range of complimentary products. The forecourt is open from 7.00am to8.00pm Monday to Friday, 8.00am to 8.00pm on Saturdays and 9.00am to5.00pm on Sundays.

In the countryWhile some in St Helier may believethe Island’s capital can’t be beatenas place to live and work, let’s notforgot Jersey is the sum of twoparts: town and country. JohnJacques recently took a revealinglook at what is happening out in ‘thesticks’ when it comes to thechanging face of our countryside.

Our countryside is changing at a pace few could have predicted just a few yearsago, and new agricultural figures show some surprising trends.

Jersey has developed an appetite for goat meat, milk and cheese and oneowner is expanding his herd to meet that demand. It’s predicted that goats couldbecome a bigger part of the rural picture in the years ahead.

Another newcomer is beef cattle following changes in the law which allowedthe import of Aberdeen Angus bull semen in 2008 to inseminate the native Jerseycow. The first crossbred animals were slaughtered in 2010 at 24-months-old andnumbers have been increasing - up from 121 in 2009 to 363 last year. It’s thoughtthe local market may now be saturated, although it will be interesting to see if thegreat barbecue summer of 2014 has changed that. Did you try the AberdeenAngus beef burgers on sale at the Co-op? They’re excellent.

The much-loved Jersey cow, once a common sight in hundreds of picturepostcard small-holdings across the Island, is now under the husbandry of just afew farmers - a trend likely to continue in the quest for efficiency. Last year therewere 12 commercial dairy herds holding fewer than 100 cows (average herd size49) - a total of 593 cows or 20% of the Island herd.

The other 80% (2,324 cows) were in the hands of just a dozen farmers with theaverage herd size standing at 194. The largest recorded milking herd in Jerseyholds approximately 285 milking animals.

Although the number of milking cows has remained fairly static in the last fiveyears, milk yields are up by almost 7% from 4,303 litres per cow in 2012 to 4,585litres per cow in 2013. And the volume of milk going to the dairy is rising. For theyear ending last March the total was 13,374,000 litres - up by 761,000 litres onthe year before. The gross sales value of milk sold to the dairyrose 6% to £12.7 million. The dairy is now exportingproducts like ice cream to Hong Kong, Indiaand Japan. More overseas export marketsare opening up which should meanbetter profitability for the

countryside

Town versus country Jersey is of course too small an island for itstown and country to have distinctly differentidentities these days. Fortunately, however, andthanks to the protection given to green fields,it is still possible to feel wholly in one or theother. But how does St Helier measure up toother parishes when it comes to farming, openspaces and population? A glance at the lateststatistics issued by the States is revealing.

When it comes overall area, St Helier is only the seventh largest parish inthe Island, with around eight percent of Jersey’s land mass within its

2,353 acres, including those reclaimed from the sea. And yet it ishome to just over one third of the population, with 33,522

living in the St Helier according to the 2011 Census. Despite this high number, which is almost three times

the size of the next most populated parish, it may besurprising to learn that only 52 percent of St Helier is

actually built on. The remaining space is open, givenover to farming, the natural environment or put to

some other use. If fact, agricultural land continues to cover afull 32 percent of St Helier, which is an

indication of just how far the Parishborders actually stretch out beyond the

town ring road.

dwindling number of commercial herds. On thedownside land rentals and feed prices are rising.

Manor Farm in St Peter remains as an independentorganic dairy farm, processing milk and milk productsdirect for sale at their farm shop.

There’s a lot more clucking going on in our fields with the number oflaying hens up by a third to 25,800. A change in European Union ruleson the size of battery hen cages led to a shortage of imported eggs - ashortage which has now been filled by local producers.

The number of farmyard favourites like chickens, ducks, turkeys andgeese reared for meat is very small because local farmers can’t competeon the price of imported meat. We munched our way through half amillion imported chickens last year.

And cheap imported pork has had a big impact on what was athriving sector in the rural economy just seven years ago. Since 2007 thenumber of pigs held on local farms has fallen by half to around 400currently. There are now only 45 breeding sows in Jersey.

While pig-keeping is in decline, the number of sheep grazing in theIsland is continuing to rise - up 10% last year to a total of 1,135.

Overall, the latest farm statistics show that the backdrop to the entirerural economy is the Jersey Royal. The amount of land consumed by theindustry is so big, that others find it hard to get a look in because of thehigh land rentals now demanded. It makes the rearing of livestock andthe growing of other crops less profitable to the point where it makes nosense at all. While the Jersey Royal rules the roost, the figures indicatethat the Island’s farms will become less diverse with Islandersincreasingly reliant on imported food.

Finally, anyone hoping to rope in a donkey for the upcoming nativitycelebrations may be disappointed. Last year donkey numbers dropped toa low of just 22 animals.

ATTENTION! STEP AWAY FROM THE BISCUIT TIN!If only we all had a little angel on our shoulder to help usfight the temptation of that sweet, sugary mid-afternoonsnack. With sunnier days in mind, Sarah Jones offersadvice (and hope) for anyone trying to live up to those NewYear’s resolutions

As expected at the start of a new year, ourtelevision screens, newspapers and magazinesare awash with claims of new super diets,supplements and ‘superfoods’ that will banishyour festive weight gain in five second flat. Butas we all know, nothing is that easy and ifsomething sounds too good to be true, it usuallyis. What to do then when you're five - ok, makethat eight - pounds up on the scales and alreadydreaming of that summer holiday you booked inthe Boxing Day sales.

Thankfully it’s much easier and cheaper thanyou might believe. Forget diet pills, low fat yogurtand salad dressing. Our grandparents neverheard of such products and obesity levels weresignificantly lower for both adults and children intheir day. It was only when we started to get tooinvolved in the 'process' of producing foods thatour waistlines began to grow and our healthsuffered as a result, with an increase in heartdisease, high cholesterol and diabetes to namebut a few. The more unprocessed, and for wantof a better word, 'clean', foods you eat, thehealthier and trimmer (with the help ofregular moderate exercise), you will be.

There is no need to eliminate any foodgroups from your diet. Carbohydrate isnot a dirty word - in fact, unrefinedcarbohydrates should make up a bigchunk of your daily intake of food.They are what give your body theenergy it needs to walk to work, runup the stairs or shout at your partner.They are also a great source of fibre,which your body needs for gooddigestion, and also the regulation ofblood sugar levels. Unrefinedcarbohydrates come in the form of brownrice, steel cut oats and quinoa, all of which canbe bought relatively cheaply from mostsupermarkets.

Proteins or 'muscle builders' are also a must.They build and repair every cell in our bodies,provide antibodies that keep us healthy, and


that vital exam orimprove your scorein the next pubquiz. Healthy fatsare what keep yourjoints supple andhelp our bodiesabsorb the vitaminswe need to survive.

For years the

Mediterranean diet has been cited asone of the best in the world and we all

know they are not afraid of a glug ofextra virgin olive oil as a dressing for their

salads or grains. Healthy fats such as thosefound in avocado, nuts, seeds and oils such

as grape-seed and walnut should also beincluded to your daily diet in moderation.

Last, but by no means least, fruit andvegetables (frozen or fresh) shouldmake up a good bulk of your dailyintake, providing all the vitamins andminerals your body needs to surviveand thrive.

With so many delicious andnutritious wholefoods availablethere's no need to fill our plates withrefined, sugar laden, unsatisfying andessentially unhealthy processed foods.

So the next time you reach for that readymeal, show your body some respect and turn inthe direction of the fresh produce aisle instead.You will feel so much better for it!

hormones that affect our moods and feelings.Having a portion of protein with every meal willensure you are fuller for longer and less inclinedto reach for the refined, and ultimately unhealthy,snacks. Good sources of protein include eggs,lean meat such as chicken, fish including salmonor tuna, and for you vegetarians out there, lentils,edamame beans and tofu.

Fats...I know what you're thinking - fatsmake me fat. This is a myth. Healthy fats, eaten inthe correct quantities, are vital for the health ofboth your body and mind. Omega 3 fats such asthose found in fish oils and flax seeds give yourbrain the extra boost it needs to ensure you pass

Into the blue...

It may still be cold and grey outside but it�s time to start brightening up your wardrobe again ready for spring. We always get excited when the new spring collections start hitting the rails and this year is no exception with beautiful colours and prints starting to appear.

And the colour which is leading the way this spring is blue. From classic blues to aquamarines and scuba blue, every shade of this striking hue is represented in clothing and accessories for men and women.

The first shade to exert its authority is the bold cobalt blue which can make an electrifying statement.

One of our favourite pieces is River Island�s jersey twill jacket, which would

look lovely teamed with either a dress or jeans and a white t-shirt.

Or layer it with another hot colour for this spring � custard yellow.

For a more formal look, we love the Leona dress and jacket from Hobbs, which make the perfect workwear transition from winter blacks to brighter colours.

Guys are not neglected as this trend makes itself felt through the men�s ranges. This Thomas Pink cashmere jumper is perfect for the smart casual look, or for wearing with a shirt for work.

For a more casual look, this Superdry men�s hoodie is ideal for those dressed-down weekends.

Local author pens wartime talepeople

As we reach the 70th anniversary of Liberation, there is renewedfocus on peoples’ stories from the Second World War.Jersey-based author Barbara K Davies recently published a bookbased on her father's wartime letters and diaries, and her ownmemories of a wartime childhood growing up in Birmingham.

Barbara has had a lifetime’s involvement in the arts. She studiedcostume design at university, worked in the theatre after graduating,sung opera, played the piano and appeared on stage. Barbara is alsoa prolific painter, and a passionate writer. It’s with the last hat firmlyin place that she told us about one of her latest publications, TheFood of Love.

It’s a book based on the wartime letters and diaries of AlbertKendall. Born in Birmingham in 1908, when just a lad he joined thearmy, experiencing life as a soldier in British India. When war brokeout in 1939, Albert was working as a bus driver in hishome city of Birmingham, married to Dorothy andalso appearing on stage as a semi-professional singer.Still tied to his former military life through being anarmy reservist, he was called back in his regiment, theRoyal Warwickshires, and sent to France.

‘Few people back in Britain at that time fullyunderstood the privations the troopsexperienced,’ explainedBarbara, ‘they were livingunder canvas or billeted outinto leaky barns and farmbuildings. Some lucky oneswere lodged with villagersbut often on sufferance.However, Albert was amazedat the generosity of family andfriends who sent him parcels.’

After the Germans invadedFrance in May 1940, a swiftAllied defeat followed. Alongwith thousands of other soldiers,Albert returned to Britain viaDunkirk and returned home tohis family. Once there, the wartook him in a different direction.

‘After 1940, he did not go abroad again, but became a member of the Norton Follies, a concert partyunder the auspices of Stars in Battle Dress,’ said Barbara.

‘Travelling in wartimewas incredibly difficult but the NortonFollies were deeply committed in theMidlands and the south of England,performing in all kinds of venues forBritish, Allied and American troops, as wellas factory workers. The Follies wereofficially disbanded in 1944 but Albertand several members still gave concertsfrom time to time.’

The book continues Albert’s storyfrom the end of the war into the early1950s. It throws a light on post-warBritain, a time of ongoing hardship forthe British people as the country

struggled to recover from almost six years offighting. It culminates with the 1951 Festival of Britain, a time when a new spiritof optimism began to prevail and people told each other that things could onlyget better.

As well as pursuing writing interests, Barbara has thrown herself in a widevariety of activities since moving permanently to Jersey in 2014. Among these isan international piano festival first established in 2013 together with MichaelStembridge and Rod McLoughlin.

‘The Food of Love’ is available from Amazonas a Kindle book alongwith another of Barbara’srecent publications, ‘Lifeis Everlasting’ whichchallenges accepted ideasof reality.
