It got a great response the first time around, and we hope you enjoy it as much in this issue. Our aim is to keep the content diverse, so, there will be parts of the lifestyle section that will be reoccurring each month and ones that will get switched up for a little variety!

This month in the DentaltownUK lifestyle section we travel to Slovenia & Croatia with Raj Nath and to the Geneva Motor Show with Neel Jaiswal.

We talk ‘body type and fitness’ with David Bretton and

go for a run with Elaine Omand. We brush up on our style with Shiraz Khan and keep

on time with Tejaswi Mellachervu. We also review the Hawskmoor in London with Guy Laffan. There’s a lot to get through, so settle down and enjoy! Dr Milad Shadrooh (a.k.a The Singing Dentist) [email protected]

In this month’s watch article, I am going to delve into the reasons behind why people enjoy wearing and collecting watches, including the different types of watch collectors out there.

Hopefully this may spark some interest in the hobby for some of you, or at least be of some interest to those with a passing curiosity about it!

Does the mechanical watch have any relevance or is it just an outdated relic?

We can, for instance, tell the time from our mobile phones, ipads or our car digital clocks.

Why bother wearing a watch? Well, I would say there is something both

charming and alluring to wearing a watch comprising of cogs & gears slowly ticking away on your wrist. It allows you to pause once in a while from your busy schedule and take a time out, such as when winding the watch or setting the date for example. There is almost something romantic about it, and takes us back to a time when life was slower. I certainly get a lot of pleasure from winding my watches in the morning and pondering which to wear for the day ahead.

For men certainly, it can be one of the few accepted accessories they can wear and enjoy.

Indeed throughout history, a man wouldn’t be considered suitably attired without his beloved dress watch!

For others, they appreciate the history, the

fine mechanics, at the same time wearing a piece of art on their wrist. They can enjoy something small and discreet without overly attracting the attention of others.

They revel in the fact only they know what they are wearing, unless they unknowingly bump into a fellow watch enthusiast, who may often give an appreciative nod to the timepiece on their wrist, only for those in the know!

The types of watch collectorThere are many different types of watch

collector, which makes the hobby even more interesting, and everyone fits in!

The ‘flipper’ - This type of person enjoys the ‘chase’. They buy what they like, many times on impulse, but as soon as they have bought a watch, they are chasing the next one. Their collection is always rotating. They might however have one or two pieces even they would never sell.

The ‘grail hunter’ - This type of collector is a rare breed indeed, and they may spend many years researching that one watch they have always had their eye on, looking at prices, market fluctuations and so on and when they are ready they are ready to pounce. This type of watch could be unaffordable for that person at any given time, but slowly and diligently

they will work toward their goal of obtaining such a piece. Typical grail pieces for many would be an Omega Speedmaster (moon watch) or a Rolex. For those with very deep pockets a Patek 3970 or 5970 would be such a choice.

The ‘hoarder’ - As you can imagine this type of collector buys what they like, and keeps them all, never selling any of them!

The ‘investor’ - A shrewd breed, they may not have any emotional attachment to the watches in anyway, but are purely purchasing for investment purposes only. For sure, they may enjoy watches, and have one or two smaller pieces for themselves, but the big pieces may be stored away in a safe or on a watch winder ready for the next customer.

Within the above collectors, there are sub-genres of people who may collect only vintage watches, a particular complication only, watches from only one brand, or even those that collect the same watch!What type of watch collector are you going to be? ■

How I Became a RunnerMy relationship with running started when I left school and moved away for university. It came about almost by chance, as a couple of friends wanted to get fitter by going running, and I liked the social aspect, so tagged along.

When they announced they were going to enter Edinburgh marathon for the following year, I was filled with awe, but had no expectations in my mind that I would ever be able to achieve something like that. To go from our little 5km ambles round town to 26.2 miles? No chance!

So the weeks went by, and I continued running with my friends as they built up, while I stuck mainly to the shorter distances. Until one Sunday a few weeks before the marathon, it was a lovely sunny day, so I decided to keep running with them a bit longer.

I have no idea now how long I did run that day as it was before the time of GPS watches, but I kept up for the whole of their long run, and absolutely loved it. Being out in the fresh air, taking in the smells and sounds, and seeing so much, gave me an adrenaline rush that I previously hadn’t experienced.

When my friends completed the marathon a few weeks later, I was so proud and excited for them, but it also lit a spark in me, and I decided straight away that if they could do it, I wanted to give it a go.

I quickly signed up for the following year, and set about planning a training schedule, nutrition, kit. There was so much to learn about. I decided to enter a couple of local races beforehand to get a feel for what was involved.

I then joined a running club to get advice from other runners. Joining the running club has certainly been a life-changing experience.

The beauty of a running club is that everyone is equal. We turn up in sports kit, people from all walks of life, and it doesn’t matter what

your profession is, how many kids you have, where you come from. It’s all about getting out in the fresh air and enjoying life. Whether you want to be super competitive, or push your body to the limits, or just have a chat and a bimble with your friends, there is a place for everyone in the running community.

I certainly learned a lot from the people

there, and made many friends.The most exciting part of training for your

first marathon, is that every week when you do a long run, you are running further than you have ever ran before. Every week is a little victory. To go that little bit further, explore that bit more, push yourself that little bit harder, allows for personal growth and satisfaction that can only be achieved through something big like this.

As race day came around, I developed a

niggle in my knee, which only came on after 20 or so miles, but I couldn’t sort it before the marathon, and decided I would give it a go anyway. I had done all the training, so I had to try. It was an unusually hot morning. My parents dropped me off near the start, and I walked along to find my starting pen and get myself sorted. I had never taken part in an

event so big, with people milling around everywhere. I found a little corner of pavement to sit on and save my legs for the race. I can still remember the nerves in my stomach at the thought of what I was going to attempt, and the doubt of whether I could actually achieve it.

The race started, and we got going, through Leith and out along the coast towards Musselburgh. It didn’t take me too long to settle into my pace, and remember that I had done the training, and this was what it was all for. With the sun shining down, I took in the sights of the beaches, enjoyed the music of the bands along the route, and smiled at the crowds lining the streets to cheer us on. The atmosphere was intense and so positive, it was impossible not to enjoy yourself. I was a part of this movement.

We were 16,000 people, doing this for our own reasons, but doing it together.

About 20 miles in, my knee did start to hurt again, and the last 6 miles, were a pretty disappointing

jog/walk to the finish. The worst part was getting passed in those last couple of miles by a giant Barney the dinosaur. However, when that finish came into view, and I knew I was going to make it, I certainly found the energy to sprint down the last hundred meters, cheered on by people on either side. I crossed the line, was congratulated by the volunteers and collapsed on the grass in the sun. Relieved, sore, but elated; I was a marathon runner. I had done it, and I was hooked. ■

This year I was lucky enough to attend the Geneva motor show in Switzerland.

It’s a highlight of the automotive calendar especially for new car launches.

And one for my bucket list having read about it eagerly every Spring for the last thirty years!

I had arranged to meet up there with several dentists who are part of my Turbine Dentist/ car group and had managed to obtain stand passes for everyone.

These are definitely worth obtaining from your preferred dealerships, especially the VIP passes. It’s nice to sit down and have a drink on the stands away from the melee.

We had planned a day return with EasyJet airways in the late morning as prices were

cheaper. There was a delay at Luton and we arrived at Geneva airport after lunch.

In hindsight I wish we had got an earlier flight and booked it well in advance.

The Palexpo venue was a 10 minute simple walk away and is directly connected to the airport.

My next mistake was to go on a Saturday, it was jam packed and difficult to traverse the stands and get good views.

All in all It was well worth going and we had a superb time and with now no real British motor show it is probably the next best alternative.

I have fond memories from my childhood of attending the London motor show with my family and this instilled my love of cars.

Thus we owe our children this much!Thus my advice is book in advance get an

early flight, stay after for a nice dinner and get some stand passes and go on a weekday! If you’re a skier it would be a good starting point to the slopes.

I am sure I will go again next year and it would be a pleasure to catch up with any of you, please do contact us if you’re thinking of joining us.

If you live in London then you will know all about

Hawksmoor. It’s name is inspired by Nicholas Hawksmoor, the architect behind the imposing Christ Church in Spitalfields. The founders, Will Beckett and Huw Gott, founded the chain with their first restaurant in Spitalfields using a £20,000 loan from their parents. This soon evolved into four thriving restaurants and seven years and a financial crisis later, they sold the four-restaurant chain to the private equity firm Graphite Capital for a reported £35m. Not bad for 7 years work, right?

Hawksmoor is somewhat of a household name if you live anywhere inside the M25. During my short spell in London, my main vice was of course, the food, and boy was I glad I found Hawksmoor. It hits the spot on so many levels and I’ll put my hands up and say, I for one love it.

They have several locations in London and have also opened in Manchester – a very promising sign for me sat here in Cardiff writing this. The ‘chain effect’ often finds its way to us in some way shape or form and I have everything crossed in anticipation of a Hawksmoor someday. Sadly, we seem to be getting over-run with Miller and Carter at the moment, to which I can only say…. No comment.

My two favourite locations are Air Street and Seven Dials. Both have extremely imposing entrances that you’re almost fearful to walk through, but once you’re in, it almost feels like you’ve stepped into a time machine, and have been whisked back to a time gone by. Picture a 1920s art-deco-inspired ‘secret club’ of some description. It’s almost like stepping into an exclusive members’ only club – something owned by the likes of Al Capone. It’s very, very slick. The décor is painfully tasteful and equally stylish. Everything in there compliments everything else perfectly and you can tell an awful lot of time, care, effort and unmistakably, money, went into the planning and interior design of each of the restaurants. Your eyes are instantly drawn to the deep brown herring bone flooring, while your hand glides along the polished brass

banister that are organically styled into the marble stair cases, which ooze with cosmopolitan grandeur. Stained glass door panels, green glass lampshades and dark mahogany green-leathered booths grab your attention from all angles. Something can catch your eye wherever you look… We’re talking effortlessly cool.

The Hawksmoor team have obviously sought out very specific properties for Seven Dials and Air Street. Both resemble abandoned office or department stores that have left behind their exuberant and lavish features, installed when no expense was spared on interiors and style was of more value than substance.

I’ve personally been into Hawksmoor at all times of day, for both the food, and more shamelessly, the cocktails. It prides itself on its steak, and having eaten some pretty darn good steak in my life, I can confidently say that Hawksmoor are doing it exceptionally well. It’s always a relief to see restaurants doing justice to such fantastic produce. The menus themselves are sensational.

When you read through you can’t help but think rustic, hearty, wholesome and generally speaking, British. The starters include things like potted smoked mackerel, shrimps on toast and Old Spot pork belly ribs. There is also an exquisite selection of native seafood, served however which way you want, with a selection of sides to match. (I can’t say I’ve ever tried the fish, but once you’ve tried the steak yourself you’ll understand why.) The steak comes in

every cut and every size you can imagine. You can literally order however many grams of whatever cut you want – which genuinely had me in awe. We’ve all been there in the past – being served a golf ball sized fillet and feeling a deep sense of disappointment. Not at Hawksmoor, as you are in the driver’s seat.

Now let me put this bluntly – the selection of sides is immense. My favourites being beef dripping fries, bone marrow, creamed spinach and lobster mac’n’cheese to name a few, but let me just make one thing clear – the absolute crowning glory for me is the bone marrow gravy. (I mainly say this because I’m Welsh and gravy after all is one of our main food groups).

My oh my is it good! My wife would have to hold me back if a pint of the stuff did actually arrive at our table. It’s unctuously rich and leaves you wanting more. Which leads me onto my next point – the short rib French dip roll.

This, my friends, is a game changer. It’s mind-blowingly good and as I’m sat here writing this, I’m desperately depressed there isn’t one sat here with me. The picture alone is making my mouth water. This roll is as close to savoury gastronomic perfection as it gets. They generously anoint a soft sweet finger roll with slow-braised pulled beef short rib that has obviously been soaking in bone marrow gravy for hours.

The meat is then laden with cheese, which slowly melts into all the voids and out the sides, and is then served up with a pot of that same liquid-gold bone marrow gravy, for, of course,

dipping. By the time it reaches the table, the bread is soaked through with gravy and I kid you not, it is mind blowing. I dive straight in with my hands, but the more conservative eaters amongst us, wouldn’t be blamed for using a knife and fork. This sublime creation is even in Time Out’s ‘Top Ten Dishes in London’ and has somewhat of a following. Take my word for it and get one ASAP.

Now onto the cocktails. Cocktails have existed since the early creation of spirits, but have most certainly evolved to epic proportions here and now in the 21st century. Every bar you go to has a cocktail menu these days, but very few are as impressive and well thought out as the one at Hawksmoor. Theirs is divided up into times of day, including a section for the morning – my kind of place!

To give you an idea, in their own words they have taken “long-out-of-print cocktail books to resurrect some great long-lost classics.” Reading the names and ingredients to some of the cocktails is actually really interesting and in some respects fascinating – some are a real glimpse into the past. My personal favourite is Shaky Pete’s Ginger Brew – a gin and beer turbo-shandy cocktail, that I urge you to try. As with the food, they’ve really hit the nail on the head with the cocktail

menu, to which I can only say – Bravo!I’ve managed to eat in all of the Hawksmoor

restaurants and was equally impressed by each one. They all have their own little character and flare, and not just the generic stamp of tables, chairs and paintings that most chains can’t seem to get away from.

Their greatness doesn’t just stop at food, drink and décor. They hold four accolades that I am sure they are equally proud of: they have been listed in the Sunday Time’s ‘Best Companies’ for 6 consecutive years; they’ve been shortlisted as one of the Most Sustainable Restaurant groups in the country by the Sustainable Restaurant Awards, being given an award by Action Against Hunger for passing £500,000 in fundraising and donations, and have been given the Marco Longari Award for Changing Lives for supporting One Water Foundation. They even have their own book! So not only are these guys rocking the restaurant business, but they’re also trying to help the world in the most positive manner – something I personally feel is incredible.

The Hawksmoor founders, Will and Huw, have found a winning formula and despite selling their company, it’s reassuring to see that the original blue print has been maintained. It can be a hostile world to survive in, particularly in London, so it’s important to recognize when one does so well. I do hope they find their way over to Wales because I alone would probably keep the till full. There are so many amazing steak restaurants in London but Hawksmoor is literally the complete package. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, it’s just a really lovely experience – the superb food and drinks are merely the flavoursome icing on the already delectable cake.

Keep it up guys. ■

IntroductionDespite what Thomas Jefferson said, all men

are not actually created equal, and neither are women. We are all born with different body types, which have been determined by our genetics. By identifying and understanding your body type, this will allow you to train and eat appropriately to optimise your results and fast track your success.

If you bicep curl big weights and run lots you will achieve the dream body right? Unfortunately it is not so simple. In this article we will consider the major body types and how each body type may affect how we should train and diet for the best results.

Body TypesWhile we don’t fall into the same categories

as dental impression material with regards to light, medium or heavy body, in the 1940s, William Herbert Sheldon, an American psychologist, did identify 3 basic body types. We are all a mixture of body types, although one body type usually dominates. • Ectomorph: tall, thin, delicate frame, long

limbs, little muscle/fat, narrow hips and clavicles, f lat chest, small joints, fast metabolism

• Endomorph: round, soft body, shorter limbs, thick rib cage, excessive body fat, undeveloped muscle, wider hips, wider joints, slow metabolism

• Mesomorph: athletic, muscular and well-built, more mature appearance, rectangular shaped, thick skin, good metabolism

EctomorphEctomorphs can spend hours in the gym

with few noticeable gains. Due to their high metabolism gaining fat and muscle can be difficult. Ectomorphs require high calories in order to gain weight, usually through regular

meals and larger portions. These foods should still be healthy, ‘clean’

foods. Supplementation e.g. whey protein shakes can also be particular important for this body type group.

Ectomorphs training should be based around compound exercises; these are multi-joint movements working several muscle groups at once. The squat for example is a very effective compounds exercise. The squat engages the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, calves, lower back and the core. Isolation exercises may also be used, but should be used in addition to the compound exercises, which should take up most of the workout.

Isolation exercises are where only one joint/muscle group are used e.g. bicep curl. Cardiovascular training should be kept to a minimum and ectomorphs may benefit from more rest days.

EndomorphEndomorphs generally have great difficulty

in shifting their gut, with their body favouring fat storage. As a result endomorphs may need to take more care with their diet e.g. limiting carbohydrate intake.

The diet should also be tailored to help increase their metabolism e.g. drinking green tea, high protein diet and lots of water! Endomorphs may have a hard time achieving the physique they desire as they generally are aiming to ‘gain muscle and lose fat’.

Commonly beginners with an endomorph physique will spend hours on the treadmill aiming to shed their fat and then spend the rest of their workout on isolation exercises aiming to build individual muscle groups.

Most endomorphs will benefit more undertaking high intensity compound exercise workouts – targeting both fat loss and muscle gain simultaneously.

MesomorphsMesomorphs are the genetically lucky ones,

gifted with the ability to add muscle with ease. If they are motivated and disciplined enough they can become exceptional athletes.

Unfortunately some mesomorphs take their genetics for granted and have ‘I don’t need to workout’ and ‘I can eat what I want’ attitude. We all hate those mesomorphs!

ConclusionIn conclusion, it’s important to consider your

body type when looking to start an exercise programme; this may have a great impact on the sort of exercise, diet and supplementation regime you require to see the changes in your body you desire.

This is also a good reason to avoid generic exercise and diet plans! Whatever your body type you can achieve the body you desire as long as you are prepared to work hard for it – ‘hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard’. ■

Fitness to Practise. Train for your body type with David Bretton


Dental Tourism: A walk in the park.

by Raj Nath

Once again I was recently travelling, this time to learn surgical periodontics- flaps, grafts and osseous resective surgery from none other than Prof Andre Sadoun who was conducting a workshop in Slovenia.

At the end of the productive and very intensive hands-on workshop where we chopped multiple sheep heads into bits, I had a day spare……and the weather was brilliant!

I have been to Slovenia more than once, and so with my day I decided to do something different and go walking in the Lake District of neighbouring Croatia, specifically in the Plitvice Lakes National Park.

It is an hour and a half drive to the national park from where I was in Slovenia and, as is my usual habit, I started very early. (I recommend you do this as you will beat the crowds!)

This is one of the entry points of the parks.

I recommend you take the Southern entry as it offers a much more scenic view. The park is a series of stepped lakes with multiple waterfalls and is also a heritage site. No construction is allowed as you can expect and hence the park has been preserved in it’s pristine state for many, many years and has well maintained walkways.

The beautiful weather continued and this is a view from midway up the park on an elevated walkway looking towards the north of the park.

The water is amazingly clear as you can see and is safe enough to drink

Towards the end of the walk, I sat down on a tree trunk and contemplated the beauty of nature!

If you are a walking enthusiast- this is a place you really should visit, you would love it!

Elsewhere in Croatia there are amazing outdoor activities, fishing, superb food and wine. The people are very friendly and helpful.

Combining some activity with dentistry allows you to recharge and rest your mind to be fresh for your daily work. Meeting dentists from outside your home country also allows you to see and learn new perspectives. For me, taking opportunities to explore new lands while broadening my professional horizons is something I take great pleasure in. I hope it inspires you to spread your wings!

Travel is rejeuvenating. ■

As we all know, footwear can spring a-thousand emotions or reactions about a person.

For instance “clean”, “extrovert”, “unorganised”, “workaholic” and so on. But is there a perfect formula for that specific occasion?

This being said, many men consider shoes to just be a necessity or requirement. Conversely, women relatively take a lot of pride in their choice of footwear and it could be said that a man’s footwear is one of the first things they notice. Even evaluate. Has the significance been highlighted yet?

Of course, there are no hard and fast rules concerning the requirement or absolute

necessity for particular shoes types for particular occasions. Obviously a pair of triple welt Grensons brogues will not be the most functional for a good-old squat session at the gym.

Although this may be to the disbelief of many, tailoring and trainers are seeming to be a very regular ‘commuter’ look within the heart of London. Since the days of Pharrell Williams and Justin Timberlake dropping base tone suits with white trainers to match a white t-shirt under their jacket, it appears to have caught on within the retail industry.

In actual fact, for many retailers such as Ted Baker, this is a very commonly “shopped-

A guide to gentleman’s formal footwear by Shiraz Khan

www.highsnobiety.com/2014/05/19/grenson-triple-welt-collection/

look”. In the ever so eloquent words of Mr

Porter himself “Travelling today, meeting tomorrow” sums up this commuter look.

Moving on to more formal occasions, what is the gentleman’s shoe of choice. In all honesty, this will serve as a “clinical guideline” (LOL). That is, this is not absolute, but works as a guide.


Shoe types.

Brogue:This is an umbrella term for any shoe

which has a decorative perforated or punch-hole appearance within the upper-leather of the shoe. It can come in a variety of shoe styles. A brogue as such, is not the description of the shoe but more a description of the construction process of the upper leathers.

The Oxford:This is the most-common brogue substyle.

This often has a closed lace style, which basically means the distance between the opposing sets of eyelets are relatively fixed. These can come with a clear design, or as is perhaps the most common, an oxford wingtip brogue. Here is a fine example crafted by the wonderful shoemaker TOD’s.

The Derby:This has only one discerning factor from

the Oxford; the distance between opposing eyelets are not fixed, thus having an open-lace structure. Again, this can come in a variety of designs or styles, including brogues. Here is a fine pair from Trickers:

The Loafer:For all the Playboys out there! This is a

fantastically formal shoe which is charismatic yet classy. Although the degree to which you buy these shoes or the size of the tassel is up to your taste and the occasion. Formally known as a moccasin construction. Often fit wonderfully with a tuxedo. Here’s a fine version from Gucci utilising its Eleanor Lizard leather with their trademark buckle.

The Monk Strap:This is very similar to a loafer in

construction, the distinctive feature is that the strap will often have a single or double outer buckle. This is definitely a rarer type of shoe, but is rather striking for that reason.

It can be worn both formally and smart casually. Here’s this strikingly classic style from Churches.

The Whole cut:Most-probably, the most formal of shoes

in this category. These are a shoe often with the upper cut from a single piece of leather. These are most-common for black-tie type occasions, however can come with areas of embossing, such as these from Barker.

There are many type of men’s footwear that can be considered formal but the aim of this article was to cover the main types. The simple truth is that the line between black-tie, formal, smart-casual are all becoming progressively blurred so there is no right or wrong when it comes down to simple taste. Something for all of you to work with, here is a wonderfully constructed infographic by cloggs.co.uk which allows those that need a bit of a system to appropriately choose footwear for designated occasions. Cleverly entitled The Formal Shoe Calculator. ■
