I won! Many thanks to everyone who voted for me to win the prestigious Downtown Liverpool in Business “Lifestyle” award in recognition of the magazine and Liverpool

Fashion Week’s dedication to promoting Liverpool as a fabulous place to live and work. I am so proud to live and work in this fabulous city with so many wonderful people. Having lived all over the country as a freelance

This month we’re ensuring you stay happy with some exclusive book extracts from my favourite television presenter, Keith Lemon, who recently came to town. And we chat to the lovely Comedy Dave who works alongside Chris Moyles on the Radio 1 breakfast show.As we leave 2011, Lifestyle remains stronger than ever with a string of successful events under our belt. Liverpool Fashion Week was the most successful fashion event this city has ever held, with international media coverage from Spain, Brazil and the USA, putting Liverpool

with plans for the Lifestyle Awards in February and the Wirral Fashion Festival in March - we just love an excuse to party! As we remain the number 1 magazine for the region (and reaching our 4th birthday next year) we are stronger than ever.

Merseysiders are getting out and about on their bikes more than ever before, with a 25% increase in cycling since 2006.

More and more people are opting to cycle some or all of their way to work, there’s also a rise in cycling for pleasure, with the increasing popularity of organised cycle rides and people choosing cycling as a healthy hobby for all the family.

One thing that’s helping people feel more confident about their journey is a massive cycle training and skills programme. Merseyside offers the largest Bikeability programme in the UK, training children to cycle to national standards. Adults are becoming skilled too, from learning to ride and finding quiet routes to cycling safely in traffic; as well as being offered bike maintenance sessions. A range of cycle maps and infrastructure improvements are also helping to make it easier for people to get around by bike.

Keen cyclist Amanda Dufresne said:”Since taking up cycling I’ve developed more stamina and I’m feeling fitter than ever. I cycle to work, which saves me money and I also use my bike when I’m visiting friends or nipping to the shops, because it’s a quick and reliable way to get around”

Neil Scales, Merseytravel Chief Executive added: “Through our TravelWise campaign cycling is a key part of our drive to encourage sustainable transport and to meet our targets for reducing carbon emissions and traffic congestion across Merseyide, so this increase is really positive news.”

ECHO ARENAT H E L O W D O W N . . .With Promotions Manager, Emma McHarrie

Ahhh December – my favourite time of year! Doesn’t Liverpool look lovely and festive now that the lights have been switched on?

We have some early festive presents at the Echo Arena so anyone who pays a visit during the remainder of 2011 is in for a real treat – Paul McCartney, Duran Duran, The Saturdays, Kasabian and QuoFestive with Status Quo, Roy Wood & Kim Wilde are just some of the acts who will be performing! Arctic Monkeys played to a packed out Echo Arena in November – the band seemed to have a great time with lead singer Alex declaring that ‘Liverpool makes me feel good’! They’ve changed a lot from their early days, now with a very polished set and confident on stage presence – in my opinion they totally smashed it! We’ve had some fantastic new on-sales over the past few weeks for 2012 – Torvill & Dean’s Dancing on Ice returns in May, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will be here in September, and Liverpool’s favourite funny man John Bishop is

back for 4 huge dates in October…and that’s just the edited highlights! Make sure you visit echoarena.com for more information– it may give you some present-buying inspiration! I’ve no doubt that there are many Lifestyle readers who are fellow X Factor addicts like myself so hopefully you’ve all been voting Scouse! Despite Craig recently being voted off I think he’s done a fantastic job and it’s not the last we’ve seen of him as he’ll be at the Echo Arena in February along with Marcus, Kitty, The Risk, Little Mix, Misha B & more as part of the X Factor Live tour. I have my fingers tightly crossed that Marcus will make it all the way to the final – I remember catching his first audition here back in July and he definitely stood out even then!

Well that’s it from me for this year. I hope you all enjoy the festive season and wish you a happy & healthy 2012 – see you in January for the lowdown on more quality live entertainment! And remember… #votescouse!

The Radio One breakfast sidekick and Dancing on ice star chats to Joy Lewis

Comedy by name…comedy by nature!

Lifestyle talks exclusively to Comedy Dave: Dave Vitty

Celebrity Interview

1212

Comedy by name…comedy by nature!

Dave Vitty studied Radio Production at college in Warrington, but never had any ambitions to be on-air. He began working as a copywriter and then moved onto becoming a broadcast

assistant for Radio 1 on 5 December 1996. Of course everything changed back in 1997 when destiny called and he met Chris Moyles ,they got on like a house on fire, so much so that Moyles invited him to work with him on his early morning show. And the rest as they say is history!

He is now the head writer of The Chris Moyles Show and no less than ‘Director of Comedy’, but he is looking towards the heady heights of literary prestige, because doesn’t everybody want to see their own name in ink? After all, every celeb and their mother/hairdresser/dentist seem to be churning them out these days. And if they can do it, why can’t he?

His first attempt at being a “proper writer” is a collection of questions, theories, short stories, poems, pictures and anecdotes which are all tediously linked together in his own unique and charming style. Suffice to say, it’s unlikely to win the Booker Prize, but it will give you a bit of a giggle while sitting on the toilet! I managed to catch up with him between book signings, here’s what he had to say…………....

What made you decide to get the creative juices flowing and try your hand as a writer by putting pen to paper?I have always, always wanted to be a writer, ever since I did a media course at college in Warrington. As the listeners of our Radio 1 show will know I already write for the Chris Moyles Show and have done so for years, but I have always wanted to be a columnist or write a book. Consequently, when I was offered the chance, I grabbed it with both hands. I thought it was a massive honour and way too good an opportunity to possibly turn down. So I did it, and I am really pleased with it, I think it is funny and I hope many people will agree and enjoy reading it.

In a few words what is the book about? And why should it be at the top of our Christmas lists?It’s just a random collection of stories about me and what I have been involved with from over the years. There are many tales about the Moyles show, bits about Folkface, some silly spoof adverts, a Q&A section and a load of pictures from my phone. It’s the perfect book for people with a short attention span, as it’s not in any way intellectual and is extremely put downable!

Unfortunately you lost your place in the Guinness book of world records for the worlds longest radio title. Do you think you would ever be tempted in trying to win it back?No thanks! I don’t feel any desire to stay away for 50 odd hours again. It sent me a bit mental last time, it was seriously hard work and it really took it out of me and the rest of the team, and I didn’t like it.

Would you ever go on the “Coach Trip?”Oh yeah absolutely! I love Coach Trip and Brendan is a true comedy genius. I’m really chuffed to be part of the show, if they asked I would defo get involved properly, and go on the coach to Lithuania or Lisbon or somewhere like that.

Are we going to see you throwing some shapes and swinging your hips on the dance floor on Strictly Come Dancing next year now you’ve finished Dancing on Ice?

That, you never know! It is a great idea and I am available, and would really love to give it a go one day. I think after I showcased my natural ability through the medium of ice dancing, then Strictly would be the obvious next step; they should give me a ring! Ha ha ha.

As a well known huge Everton Fan how often to you manage to get to the game, home or away?I try to get there as much as I possibly can. I have got a season ticket in the paddock, and get to about half the home games in a season, the seat is never empty though because when I can’t make it there my cousin’s wife who is also a blue nose is more than pleased to use my seat. I also get to pretty much all the away games in or around London. There’s a load of exiled Evertonians down here, and we all take it in turns to sort out tickets for the away games.

Back in September you did a radio 1 broadcast from Liverpool, was it fun and did it feel like you were more on home turf?Yeah, it was fab; we had a great time thank you. We went out for a lovely Indian meal at ‘East is East’ over by the Echo Arena, and then carried on for a few drinks in ‘Schmooze’ which is just off Allerton Road, with our competition winner Steve Lee and a few his mates. We had a really good laugh, and yeah it’s always nice to get back to Liverpool. It is big a shame it was only a flying visit as unfortunately I had to disappear straight after the show the next morning.

So, you’re a radio star, a folk star and a now a writer, what do you plan to become in 2012?The plan for 2012 is to still be a radio star, folk star and best selling author! I don’t know really. I am really very lucky to do what I do, and of course very thankful, so long may that continue! The primary goal for next year as always is to keep the Chris Moyles Show on the number one spot; as it is always important to never take your eye off the ball.

Do you have any exciting or romantic plans for Christmas, or are you more of a New Year fan?It’s Christmas all the way for me! The plan for Christmas this year is for me and my daughter Nicole to spend Christmas Day at my mum’s down south, along with the rest of the family. Then we’ll go up to Wakefield after Boxing Day to have ‘Christmas Day 2’ with Nicole’s mum Jayne and Nicole’s grandparents.

As you are also known as a DJ, have you got any New Year gigs where you will be playing?This New Years Eve I am DJing at Tiger Tiger in Leeds, which I’ve done for the last 2 years, and is always a really great night!

And lastly I have to ask, how did you get the nick name Comedy Dave?It was on the Moyles show. We had comedian Lee Hurst on the show and he asked who I was, I replied “Super Dave,” to which Lee sarcastically responded “Comedy Dave more like” and it stuck!

As the John Wilson Orchestra comes to the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic this month,

we chat to the extraordinarily talented musician, John Wilson.

John Wilson is world renowned conductor, arranger and film music expert, was given per-mission by Warner Bros, then rights holders to the MGM film

catalogue to reconstruct the scores from the MGM film musicals. This project took ten years as in 1969 the studeio decided to destroy scores to many of their legendary film classics such as The Wizard of Oz, Meet me in St Louis and An American in Paris.

John said, “A lot of the original film scores were destroyed, ever note of every film

made for every MGM musical since the late 20s and early 30s was destroyed and I have rewritten them by listening to them over and over again and watching the movies.”

He says there is a real need for this as all his concerts have been sell outs, the last one at the Royal Albert Hall for 6500 people sold out 4 hours, the previous concert sold out in 15 minutes.John says, “ I have to thank Glee really as it has opened up music to a whole new generation. Obviously we get the older crowd who were around in the 1950s and loved it first time round. Then we get the middle aged crowd who just love a bit of nostalgia and of course the kids who are experiencing it for the first time.”

The orchestra is made up of 80 people and John reckons that the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall is one of the best. The crowd is also fantastic, really lovely people, the response we get is wonderful He says,

“It is the best in the country and the sound is fantastic.”

John has worked with Seth McFarlane - of Family Guy fame, - on the album and says of him “He is very funny, a lovely guy.”

“That’s Entertainment: A celebration of the MGM Film Musical” CD is out now and has charted at no 15 in the UK national Album charts.

How did you get into djing?I have a few friends that also dj, i started to listen to their recorded mixes and i got the urge to learn myself. Best thing i have ever done! You caused quite a reaction at LFW, why are you so popular?I don’t know haha! I’m out to make people happy with music and for every chance i get to do that and succeed at it makes me happy. If the crowd are happy then i am very happy! Who do you dj for?I currently dj at Bar on Myrtle Street on Tuesday’s & Wednesday’s Modo on Thursday’s Tiger Tiger in Manchester on Saturdays How do you spot a good track?Well when i look for songs i always look for a sense of unpredictability, something to catch the crowd off guard with. When i do manage to find a great track it gives any dj a buzz that will send a crowd wild with. What is your favourite audience?Any audience that enjoys the music as much as i enjoy playing it wins my appreciation! How will you be partying over the Christmas period?I’ll be DJing over most of the Christmas period. Any time that i do have free will be spent with my family & working towards my next gig.

What would be your ideal party that you are invited to?This is a tricky one, any party that would involve me working with

the likes of Afrojack, Bingo Players or Alesso would be my dream party What is your best experience to date with your work?well in my under 18 days, my best experience was working at a under 18’s event, i had djd for a crowd over 500 people it felt unreal! But lately it would have been working @ modo for the Liverpool Fashion week, it was probably my most important set to date and i don’t think i have enjoyed a set as much as that one.

How do you prepare for a set?I try and keep relaxed as possible & not to panic, i always go in with a mind set of how i want to work the crowd and what sort of atmosphere i want to fill the venue with. I also like to go in prepared with a “variety drop “i like to call it, keeping the crowd on its toes. Where do you see yourself in 3 years?i hope to see myself djing in different countries in a few years, I’ve always wanted to dj in America so i hope i achieve that target soon!

As Lifestyle enjoys the hottest nightspot in Liverpool.

We chat exclusively to George Panayiotou part of The Ability Group the owning family behind the Hilton Liverpool.What is your business background?I worked closely with my father in our build to let property portfolio that spanned over 7,000 apartments across London. Then I worked alongside another manager to manage all the let’s before we sold out a chunk off the portfolio to the Grainger fund at the height of the property boom. Then moved to the Ability Headquarters beside my father assisting and working on hotel transactions, refurbishments, marketing and design off the assets we purchased.

What other business interests do you have?We own a house we have on Billionaires Row on the Bishops Avenue in London called Heath Hall that we are currently marketing at 100m (one of most expensive houses on UK market currently) The Ability Group purchased and refurbished this phenomenal asset once owned by the Tate & Lyle family.Our family have also build and just recently launched our new Syon Park Hotel in The Duke of Northumberland’s Syon Park the Grade 1 parkland estate in London, this is the only country estate hotel in London Waldorf Astoria are managing the hotel on our behalf and its the first out the US where the Famous Waldorf Astoria sits in New York. We also own a Club Med resort in Sicily which is one of the biggest resorts in the world as well as other Hilton managed hotels in Cambridge, Dunblane and Luton.

How did you get involved in PlayGround?PlayGround life started when little over 2 years ago when The Ability Group purchased the Hilton Liverpool we had this fantastic empty unit on the ground floor that nobody knew what to do with, some said how about a coffee shop or a SPA and after spending time in Liverpool and discovering the glamourous and fashion side to the city it was evident to me what this great vibrant city needed and that was a Nightlife!!!

What makes a hotel successful?In the time I have spent in learning and understanding this trade I believe there is many hotel asset classes from resorts, budget hotels, city centre, boutique but

one common thread between all is creative marketing, innovation, location and brand and for that very reason is why I believe the Hilton Liverpool is such an iconic hotel as it ticks all those boxes.

What’s on offer at PlayGround?Entertainers, live acts, theatrical acts, everything that used to wow you as a kid that people have forgotten.

What do you envisage when see people in PlayGround?I want to see those faces that people used to have as a kid when they walk in a toy shop or play in the playground or first get to go to a circus, butterflys in the tummy experience. The clientele will be professionals that want a great night out we won’t pigeon hole any identity as long as were comfortable all members will be like minded.

Why is there a need?Because the market and the glamour of Liverpool does not reflect the current offer.

How do you spoil yourself?I am a keen gym freak and car enthusiast so a perfect day would be taking my lamborghini for a spin and popping through a McDonalds drive through on the way back, I’m very disciplined my father installed that trait in me from a young kid.

How will you be spending Christmas?Spending Christmas will be at Syon Park with the family and it will be great because there some fantastic grounds at the hotel so hopefully it will be a white Christmas and we can enjoy the great outsides and the private garden, not to mention one of Londons biggest and most luxurious spas Kallima.I get more pleasure giving presents at Christmas so what ever my family and close friends get me I will be happy.To apply for membership at Playground please go to www.playgroundliverpool.com - limited supply so apply now!

INTRODUCING AWARD WINNING MAKE-UP ARTIST FOR BODY SHOP IN LIVERPOOL ONE, Adi Alfa.

Adi, who worked at The Body Shop, won a national competion across Body Shop UK out of over 200 stores to become Colour Coach of the year

2011.She said, “This is such a massive achievement and honour for me as i have worked extremely hard in my role as a make-up artist for the past year and a half at The Body shop and outside. i have held instore make-up events, linked up with other retailers, promoted our ‘make-over for change campaign’ which supports our charity, CHILDREN ON THE EDGE. Our charity provides food, education and livelihood for vunerable children across the world. I have also instigated make-overs in aid of charities such as macmillan cancer research, the British Heart foundation, Cash for Kids and Bernado’s, along with the massive support of my team who i absolutely adore! My role as a colour coach means that i have trained every member of staff in make-up application and new product knowledge and helped drive sales.”The aspect of this role she is most most passionate about is the ethics of the company she works for., saying, “I love how the Body Shop where the first beauty brand to trade ethically! none of our make-up is tested on animals or contains animal products and our make-up contains Marula oil which is community and fair traded from Namibia. Marula oil is a magnificant ingredient which moistures and protects the skin leaving our make-up sitting perfectly on the skin and not sinking into the skin’s pores. The great thing about Marula oil is the story that goes with it, by sourcing our marula oil naturally from the women’s tribe in Namibia we are also supporting the women there and in turn their community so that their buisness will flourish and they will recieve a fair wage without exploitation.”The Body shop beleive in NATURALLY enhancing YOUR NATURAL beauty, we want to activate self esteem especially in young girls. the pressure on young girls is immense, which is why we offer FREE skincare and MAKE-OVERS so that young girls can learn correct ways of looking after their skin and applying their make-up the right way.(under 16 year olds must be accompanied by an adult) however we also do many make-overs on different age groups who are also not as comfotable with make up...ALL ages welcome!I have recently just started my own freelance make-up buisness called, The Doll House which offers make-overs for individuals or groups in the comfort of their home! i also do weddings and kids parties, if you would like a free sample of my skills i would be honoured! :)

Thank you for your time, Adi AlfaColour Coach of the Year

What does a colour coach do?A colour coach is a role given to a team member who shows extra passion,talent and enthusiasm for make-up. They then have the responsibility of making sure we take the money(make-up wise) making sure every member of staff is trained in make-up and that they are skilled and competant enough at delivery exceptional make-over services. A colour coach is also in charge of driving traffic into the store, bringing brand awareness, organising events and keep track of store targets. Each body shop store has one.

Why did you become a make up artist?I professionally trained six years ago bt before that I already had a natural flare for make-up and all my friends would ask me to do there make-up if we ever went out! I just have a passion for make-up and I love the creative side to it, I’m a very creative person and I love how almost a work of art can be created with make-up. For me make-up is about building on what we already have naturally. It’s not about creating a false image, it’s about letting the inside reflect the outside and allowing make-up to enhance your natural beauty! I don’t like caked on make-up it’s not about looking fake, my favourite part about being a make-up artist is seeing someone who has such low self esteem, instantly feeling more confident. I’ve done many young girls who have acne or scarring and to see them with a smile on their face because it’s now less visible and that was the thing that was making them self concious is such a great feeling! I know many people think make-up is a vanity thing bt for me its not, it’s an expression of who we are, what we want to be, our inspirations. I love 1940’s inspired looks-the flicks and dark lips and the role in the hair!Now that I have won an award it has made me more determined to get everyone passionate about make-up. I have just started my own

mobile make-up company called The Doll House but I’d like evolve and get a shop or boudoir! Another option for me would be to become an international make-up artist as part of the bodyshop,maybe work in the labs making my own make-up!

Who would you like to make up?Katie Price because she overdoes herself, she likes similar make-up to a drag queen(and that’s no offense because I like their make-up for some aspects, but I’d like to give her a quirky look or a more natural look.I’d also like to do the Queen’s make-up! I think I could make her look stunning-give her a nice glowing youthful complexion!

What are this season’s party trends?Smoke and sparkle...gorgeous smokey eyes with loads of sparkle! Or the other trend which I love is wine stained lips with black liner flicks as seen by marc jacobs and vera wang on the catwalks!

Job 77 = Fitting wall brackets to store your garden toolsWherever you keep your garden tools, it’s important to keep them organised. This not only saves time and trouble but also creates a safe working environment in which your tools can be maintained and protected. STAGE 1 Start by selecting the garden tools which require organising and purchase a suitable bracket for each of these tools from your local garden centre or DIY store. Once you have selected a location for your first tool, hold the bracket in position and use a spirit level to ensure it is straight. Mark with a pencil to show where you will need to make holes, remove the bracket and prepare to drill. Drill a pilot hole into the walling of the wooden shed using a 18v drill and 3mm drill bit (if you are drilling into a garage brick wall you will need to use a masonry drill bit and apply a plug into the brickwork beforehand). STAGE 2 Next, screw your bracket into the wall either by hand or using a drill driver set to the screw setting. Once the bracket has been firmly secured to the wall you are ready to hang your first tool. Repeat for each tool, measuring a suitable gap between each bracket.

Hi everyone This month I’ve been busy with some of my sponsors and I’m still receiving my birthday presents for my 40th, which took place last month!

Recently, I was in Sandown Park in Surrey to support my sponsor Blaklader at the fourth professional toolfair of the year. I attended to represent their work wear range, which I regularly wear on my TV shows and whenever I have to visit building sites during the day because it’s such a reliable brand. The fair was a huge success and I really enjoyed it.

Also, last week the Children in Need special of DIY SOS was shown on BBC. As I mentioned last month DIY SOS took on its biggest ever challenge, a huge development project which involved refurbishing Norris Green Youth Centre in Liverpool. Children in Need funded the project to save the dilapidated building which provides young people with a safe and encouraging environment outside of school and strongly contributes towards combating anti social behavior in the disadvantaged area. I had a lot of fun working on this project and was more than happy to be involved because it’s such a worthy cause. It was great to finally watch and hear the feedback from other viewers as well as raise awareness of the necessity of projects just like this all over the country. I have to say the highlight of this month though was the fantastic birthday present off my girlfriend Laura. I was absolutely chuffed when she surprised me with a trip to the Big Apple. A few days shopping and taking in the sights of New York was exactly what I needed after all of last month’s partying. In both New York and here in the UK the cold has really started to set in so I’ve been wearing my Heat Holders permanently! They’re great for making my work boots extra comfy or for just wearing round the house (Laura and I love them!) Anyway, I hope you’re all keeping warm this November and are looking forward to Christmas! Best wishes, Craig

BUSINESS FOCUS... Top business coach Darren Lawrenson ensures you don’t go crazy this Christmas...

Karl Fischer PR.UK & USA Sponsorship

“Do one thing every day that frightens you”Confidence – Where does it come from and how can I get more of it?

In my work with executives, business managers, business owners through to young adults and teenagers, I am often asked “how” to improve confidence and where does confidence come from. Whether it’s a major business presentation a new job, a job interview or asking someone out on a date, these are all areas that we can feel under confident in. We can feel anxious, nervous and fearful. We know this because we have all been there at some time. The great news is, you’re not on your own. When I ask a room full of people to raise their hands if they would like to improve some aspect of their confidence, I guarantee 100% of the time all hands in the room are raised. So the first thing is be reassured it’s perfectly normal and natural to have feelings of under confidence. We all believe that confidence comes from within ourselves and that we are products of our environment. We believe that our friends, family, experiences are what shape our confidence and to some ends these statements are true. We will feel more confident in certain environments and with certain people than others and if we are not careful we can stay within those environments as we feel comfortable and reassured. You will know that sometimes you feel more confident after a few drinks; we call it “Dutch courage”. Dutch courage refers to the courage gained from intoxication, originally from Dutch gin given to soldiers before they went into battle. However be aware alcohol is a depressant and can only give a temporary boost to feelings of confidence, alcohol when over indulged with will give the absolute opposite outcome and can damage, confidence, self esteem and feelings of self worth. So how do we build our confidence? I know that building confidence is a habit and not an overnight fix and those habits take 28 days to make and 7 days to break; we need to do something daily for 28 days for it to become our habit. Confidence comes from challenge ourselves to grow and push beyond our comfort zone. Our comfort zone is the world we have created that gives us feelings of certainty, security and safety. Pushing beyond these self imposed boundaries will force us to do things and be more than we are and as such will force us to grow. We gain confidence as we grow and become more than we have been. When we trust ourselves to risk pushing out of our comfort zone our confidence will naturally grow. It may feel uncomfortable at first but stay with it. We can either stick with it and become more or we shrink and use those feelings not to push next time which in turn will give us feelings of under confidence. It’s somewhat of an irony that we want to feel confident to attempt new things when in turn by doing these things we actually become more confident. Try it! Try something each day that challenges your comfort zone and watch as your confidence grow and grow. Take the risk, I guarantee you will feel better and better about yourself and your feelings of being confident.for more information contact [email protected]

Many companies who are reluctant to advertise can raise their profile by sponsoring a high profile event. I have teamed up with the award winning Lifestyle Magazine who are putting together the Liverpool Lifestyle Awards 2012. This prestigious black tie awards ceremony celebrates the best in local businesses who have worked with the magazine over the last year. Explains organiser, Amanda Moss, “ We understand that it is a very big decision for some companies to spend their advertising budget with Lifestyle magazine and so we want to give something back to our advertisers, to say thank you. The awards is a way whereby we can give them that little bit extra promotion and help raise their profile a little bit higher within the business community.”If you would like to present an award, or are looking for a larger business sponsorship package then please get in touch. We can offer you the chance to make a presentation on the night in front of your target business audience.
