Welcome...

June ISSUE 2015

....Summer’s finally here! With sunshine in April, then tempestuous weather in May, I have everything crossed it will be set fair for ‘flaming June’ – as it’s sometimes known!

Hot, hot, hot is how I’d like it – and speaking of sizzling, have we got a magazine for you this month!! Great offers, interesting features and competitions galore – the perfect read for an afternoon in a deck chair, cool glass in hand…..

After all the pantomime ‘will they, won’t they’ of the Election last month, things are looking hopeful for businesses and families alike, with the prospect of a settled five years for our economy to grow and flourish.

The 70th anniversary of VE day was a fitting reminder that we have a wonderful country that so many gave their lives to protect, so make June the month you take a moment to absorb the beauty of this wonderful part of the world.

Until next time………

REMEMBER A CHARITY IN YOUR WILL

The UK is a charitable nation. Our response to national disasters, the large amounts donated to causes like Children In Need or Red Nose Day, or the people who run marathons for Cancer Research, Alzheimers, and many other excellent charities, is heart warming. It is a fact that three quarters of us support a charity in our lifetime.

But curiously, only 7% of us leave a charitable gift in our Will.

It is worth remembering that often our death releases more cash than we would ever have available in our lifetime – for instance, the sale of the house we have been living in or investments we have been relying on to provide us with an income. Yes, when it comes to your Will, family are usually the first priority, but why not make a legacy to a charity you support or have always wanted to support as well?

16

Apart from the welcome help it would provide to charities, which are currently under strain following one of the UK’s longest recessions, there is evidence to suggest that bereaved friends and family gain comfort from knowing that death can bring something positive.

And of course, there are the tax advantages.

Spratt Endicott is part of the “Remember a Charity in Your Will” group. If you would like to learn more or make a Will, please contact Lucy Gordon, Partner at Spratt Endicott Solicitors, on 01295 204045, or email lgordon@se-law.co.uk.

BRACKLEY HOSTS ITS SECOND CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE

Brackley hosted its first Christian conference in 2014. We saw ladies from all around the UK come for a day to bask in the presence of God. We had a wonderful time and we are going for it again. This time it’s extended over two days and we have more tickets available.

The dates are June 19th & 20th.

The theme of the 2015 Beloved conference is Flourish. When God shared the vision for 2015, we were so inspired by the dictionary definition of Flourish 1: to be in a vigorous state; thrive 2: to be in his or her prime 3: to grow luxuriantly, or thrive in growth Our day will be packed with speakers, workshops, worship, a sit down lunch, afternoon tea and lots more. We hope you will leave encouraged not to strive in life but to live gloriously free and abundant lives where you

flourish no matter the external circumstances.

If you are a woman that wants to step away from daily life and step into a warm welcome, build friendships with other women, enjoy all the pampering treats, but mostly spend the day with your Father God, then come and join us. If you don’t know about your father in heaven that loves you, but you want to come along, you are so very welcome.

You can find out more on our website, book your ticket online and see photos of last years conference. You’ll see our love of God, laughter, friendship, cake and bunting.

We are so looking forward to welcoming you and sharing this day with you www.thewellministries.co.uk

The season had a dramatic finale for Brackley Town. With four games remaining Saints looked doomed to relegation with a bottom three finish after a terrible run of results winning just once in twelve matches. Then came a miracle revival beginning with a draw away at Worcester City where Saints were leading until added time conceding in the 93rd minute.

This point nevertheless proved priceless in the final analysis.

Then came a remarkable home win photographer B against table toppers Barrow followed by another win at Hyde in Greater Manchester.

This brought Saints to the final game of the season needing a win to stay up. Hednesford Town were the visitors and 775 supporters came to St James Park to urge their team on. With 15 minutes to go all looked lost as Brackley struggled to create chances and the visitors enjoyed the greater goal scoring opportunities.

That was until Ryan Rowe popped up to strike

inale For Brackley his shot with power and unerring accuracy to give Saints the lead. They held on to claim a famous victory consigning Colwyn Bay to relegation.

End of season presentations were held on the pitch to a crowd in celebratory mood as manager Jon Brady praised his players and thanked the supporters for getting behind the team.

It was a quite magnificent finish to the season and will see Brackley Town compete again at this level pher B Martin next season when the Conference will be re-named the National League with Vanarama remaining as main sponsors.

The season begins again in August with preseason training getting underway in June so players can enjoy a short break before re-joining the battle of a new footballing season.

The Garden in JUNE A very dry April, followed by reasonable rainfall in May, have given us fine displays of blossom and if the frosts hold off, will produce an abundance of fruit this summer.

And lets hope we get some more good spells of weather (without heatwaves!) over the next few months.

Plant a few inches deeper than normal to discourage ‘clematis wilt’. Add plenty of good compost to the back fill.

Clematis viticella varieties are more resistant to this disease and flower later into the autumn. Add winter and spring flowering species and you have a year round display.

Looking Good The large flowered Clematis come into their own this month. For instance the variety ’Congratulations’ (see pic) has sensational frilly pink and white petals.

Ideally planted with roots in the shade, they need to grow into the sun, on a wall or fence, to flower at their best.

You can’t talk about June flowers without mentioning roses which are at their finest this month. So many forms and varieties to include but of the myriad, I have chosen the very popular ‘English Rose’ Gertrude Jekyll (see picture above). This lovely rich pink form has shapely buds, which open to large full many petalled flowers in the old fashioned style.

A complete contrast is the variety Norfolk. This low bushy variety makes some good ground cover. It will spread about a metre wide and produces an abundance of dainty bright yellow, fragrant blooms. All roses do best when kept well fed and watered. Regular dead heading keeps them tidy and encourages repeat flowering.

Jobs in the Garden There are plenty of jobs of course in early summer. Keeping on top of weed control is essential. Catching your weeds before they get a chance to seed or establish saves so much work at a later date.

Managing your plants is an on going job.

Many different plants benefit from deadheading, i.e. pruning flower heads as they fade and petals fall. Early flowering

shrubs can be pruned now, to maximise the displays next spring, on a well shaped plant.

Spring bulbs should be long over now and foliage can be safely cut back. Hellebores are best tidied up by removing all old leaves and flower stems, which should reduce re-infection with black spot.

Kitchen Garden In the kitchen garden, vegetables can be harvested as they mature. Winter brassicas can be planted but do protect them from pests. An insect-proof mesh or fleece is useful as a barrier against cabbage-white butterflies.

Tomatoes do best and crop earliest in a sunny glasshouse, but if you don’t have one, try growing outdoor varieties on a warm wall.

Given a half-decent summer, they should give you plenty of tasty fruit. Don’t forget to give a high potash feed to all tomatoes from now on.

We wish you happy and successful gardening!
