Your garden in July

Fling the doors open to the garden and head outside! Summer is here and what better way to spend your free time than being outside and enjoying your beautiful flower filled garden. Keep plants looking good by regularly deadheading and you’ll enjoy a longer display of bloom. Make sure you keep new plants well hydrated to get them through those long, hot days and hoe off those pesky weeds, which can thrive in the sunshine. Although this still can be a busy time in the garden, don’t forget to find the time to sit back and relax so that you can enjoy all the hard work you’ve put in to achieve your beautiful display.

PLANT OF THE MONTH: Salvia A member of the sage family.

Salvias are diverse group of plants ranging from annuals to herbaceous perennials and herbs

The essential gardening jobs for July FEED, WEED, AND DEADHEAD Adding a liquid feed to your weekly watering regime will give a much needed boost to hanging baskets, container and borders helping them to produce more flowers and, in some cases encouraging a second flourish of flowers late in the season. Bedding plants, roses and many other perennials will also benefit from regular deadheading.

With Hanging baskets a bit of common sense goes a long way. Try lifting a container or basket. Does if feel light or under watered? How does the compost look? Is it pale and shrunken away from the sides? Dig into the compost with your fingers. Does it feel dry? It should be moist but not dripping wet. During prolonged dry spells, water at least once a day.

This will prolong the flowering period making the garden more attractive and will also prevent the plants from putting their energy in to seed heads. Simply pinch off the fading flowers, or for tougher branches use secateurs.

Don’t forget to keep weeds down they steal vital moisture and nutrients. Kill them by regularly hoeing borders and vegetable patches. Larger weeds should be dug out or pulled up by hand.

6

SPEND SOME LAZY HOURS IN THE GARDEN After all your hard work, enjoy the sunshine and laze in your garden.

Why should you plant them?

With flowers that are popular with wildlife, they not only deliver colour and fragrance but are also great at attracting bees and butterflies. Salvias are long flowering with the potential to put on a great show from June through much of the summer and in to autumn.

How should you plant them?

Plant in full sun, with very well drained soil, and water well when it’s dry. Trim in the spring to maintain shape and deadhead once the flowers start to fade.

The top 3 movies For July

July’s summer movie slate is filled with returning franchises and plenty of exciting spectacle. Whether you like your big screen entertainment super-fuelled, music-filled, or quite literally caught between a rock and a hard place, there’s lots going on at Cineworld!

INCREDIBLES 2

Kicking us off on the July 12th, if you hadn’t already guessed, is action star Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s latest action thriller Skyscraper.

Releasing just a few months following the success of Rampage, this time the former wrestler finds himself scaling a fictional high-rise block known only as ‘The Pearl’ in a bid to save his family. But can this film take the action genre to new heights?

Pixar’s first family return to the big screen just one day later in Incredibles 2, the highly anticipated sequel which picks up mere moments after where we last left them in the 2004 original.

This time it’s Elastigirl in the hot seat, tasked with defending the world while Mr Incredible safeguards the kids at home.

Fast-forward to July 20th and you can expect ABBA fans to weave out of the woodwork, flocking to cinemas to see Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. Set 10 years after the toe-tapping original, expect more songs, more holiday romance, and even more reasons to unleash your inner dancing queen.

The fun doesn’t stop there as Cineworld Yate and Direct Local Magazine are teaming up once again to give readers a chance to win 2 free cinema tickets. Simply fill out the word search on page 12.

Are you sitting comfortably? You will be when visiting Cineworld Bristol this July.

Summer Berry Pudding Ingredients

300g strawberry 250g blackberry 100g redcurrant 500g raspberry OR 1¼kg/2lb 12oz mixed berries and currants of your choice 175g golden caster sugar 7 slices day-old white bread, from a square, medium-cut loaf

Bring out the juices: Wash fruit and gently dry on kitchen paper – keep strawberries separate. Put sugar and 3 tbsp water into a large pan. Gently heat until sugar dissolves – stir a few times. Bring to a boil for 1 min, then tip in the fruit (not strawberries). Cook for 3 mins over a low heat, stirring 2-3 times. The fruit will be softened, mostly intact and surrounded by dark red juice. Put a sieve over a bowl and tip in the fruit and juice.

Line the bowl with cling film and prepare the bread: Line the 1.25-litre basin with cling film as this will help you to turn out the pudding. Overlap two pieces of cling film in the middle of the bowl as it’s easier than trying to get one sheet to stick to all of the curves. Let the edges overhang by about 15cm. Cut the crusts off the bread.

Cut 4 pieces of bread in half, a little on an angle, to give 2 lopsided rectangles per piece. Cut 2 slices into 4 triangles each and leave the final piece whole.

Build the pud: Dip the whole piece of bread into the juice for a few secs just to coat. Push this into the bottom of the basin. Now dip the wonky rectangular pieces one at a time and press around the basin’s sides so that they fit together neatly, alternately placing wide and narrow ends up. If you can’t quite fit the last piece of bread in it doesn’t matter, just trim into a triangle, dip in juice and slot in. Now spoon in the softened fruit, adding the strawberries here and there as you go.

Let flavours mingle then serve: Dip the bread triangles in juice and place on top – trim off overhang with scissors. Keep leftover juice for later.

Bring cling film up and loosely seal. Put a side plate on top and weight down with cans. Chill for 6 hrs or overnight. To serve, open out cling film then put a serving plate upside-down on top and flip over. serve with leftover juice, any extra berries and cream.

Image and Email Addresses A company’s email address, in today’s business world, is becoming the first mode of communication that prospects, clients, banks and suppliers use to contact a business or organisation. Consequently, the humble email address can create (or destroy) that ever important “first impression”.

Personal email addresses which include, for example, Hotmail, Live, Gmail, Yahoo, BT internet, Virginmedia etc are perfect for a private / personal email address. Used for a business it sends out the wrong signal.

It says, Hobby, Part time, Not a business, Temporary – not attributes or labels you may want to have attached to your business – whether it be a new start or an established enterprise.

If the business has a web site its best to use the domain name for emails as well. And many web hosting companies include email forwarding as part of the package. Ideally, link the domain and the emails to Office 365 or G-Suite. This is inexpensive but very important as it means your emails will be in the cloud and as a result backed up.

For more information on email addresses or setting up business grade email accounts contact Techvolution.
