Hello, and welcome to your August issue of Saga Magazine. We hope it finds you well. The sensational Sigourney Weaver is our cover star this month. In a fascinating interview, the Hollywood icon talks about gaining confidence, her desire to be a grandmother, and developing a new-found enthusiasm for gardening. Talking of new challenges, we offer advice on how to make friends – it can be easier than you might think. And in our Never Too Late section, we chat to Paul Smith, who topped the charts with his debut trance track at the age of 68. From realising an ambition later in life to a decades-long labour of love, we also meet a group of retirees who have put their hearts and souls – and more than 20 years’ work – into building a replica First World War plane. Elsewhere, we catch up with Supervet Noel Fitzpatrick and vicar-turned-author Richard Coles, and our superb regular columnists, such as Jeremy Paxman, Jenni Murray, Susie Dent and money expert Paul Lewis, are also all here. In our health section, we reveal the advantages of having nuts in your diet, and why cycling is a great form of exercise as we age. And we all know the benefits of gardening. If you want to give your plot a makeover, don’t miss our seven ways to update your outside space – perhaps Sigourney Weaver would find it handy. Plus, there’s recipe and travel inspiration, all your favourite puzzles and much more. We hope you enjoy it.
