Firstly from the team at Metroland Magazine we wan

Firstly from the team at Metroland Magazine we want to thank you so very much for the amazing comments we have had about the latest issue. Having been in digital for the past 2 years it was a bold move to add a print version due to the expense but we did it and you LOVE it! We now have another 15000 readers which fills our hearts with joy. Thank you to those that read and those that contribute, you are all fabulous.

We have been out talking to larger brands/companies about supporting us with advertising but we also wanted to do something for the smaller independent businesses who don't have the £££ to go big! We have never particularly been huge fans of the little directory ads you so often see in magazines so we thought we would do something a little different and affordable!

Welcome to the shoplocal/lovelocal pages - these are dedicated to the businesses, trades and services that we love and need. These are at the heart of our communities here in Chesham, Amersham & Chalfont. We would love you to join the Metroland family! These white pages are priced at a very pleasing £75 per issue (or £250 for the year) and also include the #shoplocal directory on our website. So you get print & digital for one small price. (Added bonus, you will be emailed every time we are looking for editorial contributions for our blog and magazine).

Drop us a message if you would like to join, we only have a limited number of spaces available as we will also be primarily an editorial magazine!

The sun is out which means only one thing.....shorts! Not great when you are a pasty white. Time to test the @oprettyltd medium mousse!

Being a fake tan officianado am happy to report this is silky smooth, easy to apply and smells divine! No nasty biscuit smell, just the delicate aroma of cherries!

Will report back on development but so far, so good. My only decision now is whether to double denim!

BAFTA-Winning Costumes from The Favourite at @blen

BAFTA-Winning Costumes from The Favourite at @blenheimpalace

Award-winning costumes from The Favourite have gone on display at Blenheim Palace as part of a new exhibition celebrating the life of John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough.

Created by the renowned British designer Sandy Powell, the costumes’ silhouettes are historically accurate but are made from contemporary fabrics.

She also opted to use mainly black and white within the court to differentiate the courtiers from the outside world.

In the film, which saw Olivia Colman receive an Oscar for her portrayal of Queen Anne, Rachel Weisz played Sarah, 1st Duchess of Marlborough, alongside Mark Gatiss as the Duke.

Blenheim Palace was built for the Duke as a reward from Queen Anne and a grateful nation for his stunning military successes in the War of the Spanish Succession.

Sandy Powell has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Costume Design 15 times, winning three awards for the films Shakespeare in Love (1998), The Aviator (2004), and The Young Victoria (2009).

She has also received 15 BAFTA Award nominations, winning for Velvet Goldmine, The Young Victoria, and The Favourite in 2018.

Running until 19th June, ‘Battlefields & Baroque’ transports visitors back in time to the Palace of the 1700’s and marvel at the exquisite clothing, food, games and music that the Duke and his Duchess would have loved.

The exhibition also features displays of 18th century armour, music and instruments, the recreation of a court feast of the time and a fascinating collection of unique maps, documents and artefacts from the Blenheim archive, many of them on public display for the first time.
