HIYA!insideEDITOR’S LETTER

Soak up the Hollywood ambiance from a nearby café and observe the rich and famous, or take a romantic stroll past the million dollar yachts.

Puerto Banus now attracts over 1 million visitors each year. They come to enjoy the unique blend of year round sunshine, top quality shops and every leisure activity possible.

During summer, the atmosphere transforms at night with people filling the streets. Enjoy a meal at one of the various restaurants before hitting the bars and nightclubs.

Head to the town centre for a long night of partying, or relax in one of the quieter Piano Bars along the front, facing the Marina.

Dance to your heart’s content in a late night bar such as Sinatra’s or try one of the popular funky nightclubs, all within a few minutes walking distance. Clubs tend to stay open until the very early hours so make sure you can keep up the pace!

Whatever activity takes your fancy, make Puerto Banus your destination.

Rowan Atkinson (Editor)

Dear Readers, It gives me great pleasure to dedicate this special copy of HIYA magazine to Miss Rebecca Dimyan on her hen party weekend, as she prepares for her forthcoming marriage to Ashley Gray.

I have thoroughly enjoyed taking time out of my busy schedule to interview Rebecca and hear all about her desires, dreams and love for Ashley. I have particularly enjoyed reading her top tips on how to be a ‘smug married’ and very much look forward to implementing them in my own life, as well as spreading the word among our Hiya readers!

Rebecca, I was a little shocked to see the pictures of your Indie days. However, Ashley has no need to worry, as there is no longer a tongue or nose ring in sight!

We have so much in common & love to do really exciting things together such as studying, going to the gym and taking copious amounts of pictures of each other. We also have a deep spiritual connection which is rrrreeeaaaaaly super!

And the wedding, can you give us any details or is it a big surprise?

Well, it’s going to be quite a spectacle & we are so excited but I am afraid that I can’t let you in on any of the details. Just wait and see on the day!

Fair enough, but can you just tell us whether there will be thrones?

Oooooo, well, just don’t tell Ash you heard it from me!

And how about a honeymoon? Off anywhere special? We’re putting our honeymoon off for a little bit, what with our busy schedules there just isn’t time at the moment!! But just as soon as we can, we’ll be heading down to Puerto Banus for some sun, sea and, well, do you really need to ask what else!!!

HIYA! Rebecca. Many congratulations on your recent engagement to Mr Ashley Gray of Pimlico. You must be thrilled about your forthcoming wedding?

Yes, we really are. We feel all smug and fuzzy about it all…..

Well, that’s lovely. When is the big day?

Well, we are soooo desperado Pavarotti for it all.

The wedding is on Saturday 22nd May at 3pm at St Stephen’s Church Llansteffan and afterwards at the luxurious Llangoed Hall - Llyswen, we really can’t wait.

Did you say Desperado Pavarotti?

Yes, desperado Pavarotti, he he he.

Right, ok and tell me Rebecca, where did you meet Ashley?

Well, I first met Ashley through a mutual friend a few years ago but it wasn’t until a charity fundraising event in London that I fell for Ashley and his charismatic charms. He was acting as auctioneer at the event and I had

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

volunteered to be his assistant. He kept giving me little winks all though the evening and at the end of the auction, I knew I was in there when he gave me a little tap on the bottom with his gavel!

Oh saucy…..

Yes, I thought so. Soon after, we went on our first date. I decided to put Ashley through his paces and so challenged him to a squash match. After the game we went for dinner where I spent most of the evening impressing Ashley with my fantastic football knowledge. Oh so you are both footy fans?

Well, I am a Liverpool supporter but it became quickly apparent to Ash that my main interest was actually in the midfielder Steven Gerrard and not the game. I was just trying to impress Ashley & it worked, urrr initially.

Congratulations and well done!

Yes, we are so thrilled and smug and make such a wonderful couple.

And what do you think the future holds for you? Will we be hearing the pitter patter of tiny trainers any time soon?

You never know, but Ashley and I do hope to have at least nine children. But it’ll be Ash who is left holding the babies, while I get back to saving a few more lives.

Ok, so you plan to go back to work?

Of course, how else am I going to be able to fund my impulsive shopping sprees and my Karen Millen clothes addiction, he he he! Plus, I also need the cash to keep buying as many photo frames as possible for the many more photos I plan to put all over the house of us together. We just love to look ecstatically smug at all opportunities!

Well, we all wish you much happiness for your big day and many blessings for your forthcoming marriage to Ashley.

My top tips on how to be a ‘smug married’

6. Avoid any conversations that dont relate to your partner

When in the company of friends and family, steer the conversation back to the topic of your partner or yourself. You will see them yawning, nodding off and making desperate attempts to either change the subject or leave. Don’t let this deter you - they are only jealous of your smugness. Grab the opportunity to bring out the photos albums, baby names book or anything that makes you look more smug, ram the message home – ‘We are a perfect couple exuding oodles of smugness for all to see and enjoy’.

Happy Smugging!

2. Match up your clothes

Make sure you and your partner co-ordinate outfits. Whether you go for ‘his and hers colour-co-ordinated- wellington-boots’, matching skiing outfits or the same silk bath robes, be sure you look as uniform as possible. Sometimes it’s not possible to find matching colours, but like all fashion aficionados, you can co-ordinate and custom with accessories. Copy Posh n Becks and you are sure to get it spot on.

3. Exercise together

Be sure to join a gym together (joint membership may even give you a huge discount) & exercise in tandem. Find dual exercise machines so the other can stand by as coach with water bottle, towel and stopwatch – what a super encouragement. Pursue sports for couples such as squash, tennis, table tennis and cycling. This way you get to spend as much time together as possible and

you don’t have to talk with anyone else. Lastly but not

least, kiss and carreess at all opportunities, even

if you are losing!

irls - when you’ve finally managed to bag your dream man, don’t delay in showing him off to all your friends and family and let them know just how smug you really are and remember - it’s good to be smug!

1. Take lots of smoochy photos

Spend the weekends visiting romantic spots such as parks, restaurants, woodlands, galleries, theatres etc. Be sure to kiss and smooch as much as possible and then ask passers by to take photos of you both together. Then, as quickly as you can, develop the photos and place them ALL over your house for all your friends and family to see. This will really make them marvel at your smugness when they come over for

dinner.

4. Keep in touch with your lover at all times

If you are apart for more than a few minutes you can text, call or facebook your partner & preferably in the company of your friends and family. You could even put all your telephone conversations on speaker phone for full effect. Make sure all your friends are following you on Twitter and then with tweet away for all to read.

5. Refer to yourself as ‘We’

Now you are a couple there is no need to think of yourself as an individual anymore, forget independence - you are now joined at the hip. To ensure that everybody knows this, refer to yourself as ‘We’ at all times. You could also throw in little pet names for special effect such as ‘my little meerkat’ or whatever you have decided to call each other between the sheets.

BECKY'S INDIE DAYS, are they really over?

Style Staples - Becky’s Oversized Sunglasses

PRADAThis season, make a bold statement and choose the essential fashion accessory of oversized sunglasses. Good quality sunglasses should protect your eyes but in the name of fashion, does this really matter? Ensure you capture that celebrity style and ‘A-list’ look just like Becky has done with her Primark pick, even if it means

pretending to your friends that they are Gucci!
