In this episode Jim talks about the history of the Ukulele and how he loves teaching others .

I'm Jim Moran and I've been teaching ukulele to beginners and intermediate students for quite a few years. I'm a qualified teacher in schools and colleges and my experience includes starting a successful ukulele club in a special school that I worked in. Courses have been run for clients including Ageless Thanet, Live Better in the Community, Age UK and Neptune Co-Working Hub.

Peter Shaw gives us an insight into the history of the Crampton Tower Museum. A fascinating small museum is partly housed in a flint tower adjacent to the Broadstairs Railway Station. The tower formed part of the first Broadstairs public water supply and was put in repair by Thanet District Council.

Thomas Russell Crampton is perhaps chiefly remembered as a designer of locomotives and of railways, but he was also concerned with gas, water works and the submarine telegraph cable. He was the first to succeed in laying an effective telegraph cable under the English Channel.

Kent's History is varied and rich. Everything is here to explore, from the pre-historic right up to the tumultuous times of the 20th century. The Kent coast enjoys a fantastic heritage and the richest font of Kent History is the Isle of Thanet which is said by some to be The Birthplace of England.

Crampton Tower Museum, situated in Thanet, celebrates local history with its collection of early prints and paintings. However, as Broadstairs is only a part of our glorious isle, the whole of Thanet is embraced by our team of historians.

Apart from a varied collection of historical artefacts, the Museum is an effective link to other collections, history walkers and nearby sites of interest.

Mitchell brings us a fascinating insight into the world of a dog behaviourist & trainer.

I've spent the last 26 years volunteering at 3 animal santuaries doing 4500 hours and rehomed and rehabilitated over 1100 dogs...and studied widely on what helps Dogs feel calm and balanced

I now work self employed as a dog behaviourist. I work one to one and come to you. I work through my vet and personal recommendation. I have a diploma in canine psychology. I can help with any issues and change any behaviour to calm whether it's reactivity, pulling , barking etc. These behaviours aren't the dogs character and they want to change and be calmer.

I also do one to one puppy training.

My main interest is how dogs think and how to help them to feel calm and secure through your guidance. I have helped 7 of my own troubled rescue dogs too.

I also genuinely keep costs down and make it easily affordable because I want to help dogs be happier. I hope the 4500 hours of volunteering proves my integrity.
