Celebrations took place at the Just Shutters Head Office and flagship showroom in Southbourne Grove, just a road away from where the company began, in a spare room of the founders family home 10 years ago.

First World War Memorial at All Saints Church, Southbourne
Like many churches, All Saints parish church in Southbourne, Dorset, has a memorial to members of the local community who died in the First World War, 1914-18. In dedication to them, here we feature one name from that memorial and their story.
Bournemouth School in Porchester Road, founded in 1901
Harold Walter Finch
Harold Walter Finch was the son of James and Susannah Sarah Finch of ‘Wylam’, Hillbrow Road, Southbourne. Harold went to Bournemouth School when it was situated in Porchester Road. He is commemorated in the book ‘Tig’s Boys’ written by Dr Fenwick, the first Headteacher at Bournemouth School. Fenwick’s ex-pupils wrote affectionate and poignant letters to him from the trenches during WW1. Harold embarked with the 2nd Hampshire Regiment on March 29th 1915. On what must have seemed an exciting adventure, Harold sailed to Gallipoli via Malta, Alexandria and Mudros, landing at Capes Helles on April 25th 1915. Although published in the school magazine after his death, Harold Finch wrote an engaging article about his arrival in Salonika (Thessalonika today). After 8 months the 2nd Hampshires were evacuated from Gallipoli during the nights of the 7th and 8th of January 1916 and returned The 2nd Hampshire land in Gallipoli
to Egypt. In March 1916, exactly one year after they had embarked from England, the 2nd Hampshires were back at sea and sailing for Marseilles and the Western Front. Upon arrival in France they travelled by train from Marseilles to an area east of Pont Remy. At the end of March 1916 they went into action in the Battles of the Somme. Sadly, within six months Harold Walter Finch’s war was over, he died November 26th, 1916 , aged 21. All of the boys who attended Bournemouth School in its first decade were eligible to go to fight in the Great War. 98 of them were killed.

Back to the Future... Hello Southbourne, Before I come to the conclusion of my trip “Back to the Future” there was just one more place that I just had to revisit that was to Southbourne Crossroads, a place that really changed my life in a big way in the years to come. Walking along Bellevue Road making my way to the “Crossroads” I came to where at one time was one of the biggest boarding school for girls in Bournemouth, “St Marys Gate” sadly this is no longer a school and is now sheltered retirement homes. Just a few hundred yards from the school was the beginning of the Crossroads shopping centre, where now most of the shops have now been converted into living accommodation. It was in this line of shops that we opened our very first business which would change the course of our lives. Standing outside where once we had a very busy little evening restaurant the memories came flooding back of all the good times that we had whilst running the”Moonlight Restaurant”. Mary my wife would meet and greet, whilst I did the cooking. Why did we decide to go into catering, that again is another story! I also remembered a little of our local history, as at the back of the properties at one time was the Southbourne “Winter Gardens”, which was eventually moved to Bournemouth. As I looked across the road I could see that another one of the landmarks had gone, the old “Southbourne Cliffs Hotel” which has been replaced by flats, I was told a few centuries ago there had been a monastery on the site of the hotel, I wonder. There was another popular attraction for both locals and visitors which has sadly gone, that is the old “Shell House” on the Cvercliff Drive, I am sure there are many will remember this. I continued my walk down to the seafront to ponder the changes that I have seen. Now of course there is a huge complex the “Bistro on the Beach”. I remember when it was first built
I watched with some interest and pleased to see how it has really progressed over the years, which is good news for Southbourne. Not to far from the Recalling my trips “Bistro” once stood Southbourne pier which “Back to the Future” was built in 1888, sadly was destroyed by a huge gale and finally demolished in 1909. Not great distance away from Southbourne crossroads is St Peters School which is one of the top schools in the area, once again this took me back a number of years as when I was a telephone engineer I would maintain their telephone system, at that time it was an all boys school. I remember the school playing fields where on many occasions I would sit having my lunch not far from the spot where Charles Stewart Rolls one of the co-founders of “Rolls Royce” was killed when his aircraft crashed, it was the first fatal powered aircraft accident in the UK. Of course today St Peters School is for both boys and girls. Over the past few months I have told you of some of the changes that I can remember over the years in Southbourne, it has been a journey that brought has back a host of memories which to be honest I have really enjoyed recalling the good old days. I think what really pleased me most of all, were the comments from my grandchildren, about my little trip “Back to the future” it has encouraged them to dig a little deeper and find out more about our local history. Before I sign off, I would like to say thank you to “The Southbourne Link” for publishing my monthly column, and a huge thank you to all my old friends in Southbourne! Is this the final chapter of uncle Rons trip “Back to the future”? or is it, let’s wait and see... Thank you Southbourne -On-Sea! “Uncle” Ron Hands

Talking about Wildlife...
Dorset - A home for reptiles Reptiles are cold-blooded animals, covered in scales, whose ancestors date back more than 300 million years. Whilst the reptiles of Britain, like many other species in the country, have lost some of their natural habitat to development, for reptiles and reptile enthusiasts, Dorset is the ideal county. All six British reptiles reside here: adder, grass snake, smooth snake, sand lizard, common lizard and slow worm.
ideal habitat for reptiles.
Dorset heaths are a unique natural environment, known to be amongst the best heaths in Britain, and provide an ideal terrain for reptiles. The rarest species of our reptiles, the smooth snakes and sand lizards, are heathland specialists, and particularly vulnerable to the current trend of heath fragmentation. The heathland conservation work that Dorset Wildlife Trust is currently implementing in Dorset is giving our reptiles the best chances possible of survival. For example, the open land and rocks of the heaths allow for plenty of basking in the sun, crucial for the reptiles to regulate their body temperature. Heaths are also rich in insects to snack on and in hibernation places for the winter, another vital requirement for a reptile habitat. The ideal heath environment for reptiles also includes water, sand, and rock piles for hiding. Upton Heath in Dorset is just one of those sites managed to provide the
Preserving precious reptile habitats is crucial for their continued survival. If you would like to ďŹ nd out more about heathland and reptiles in Dorset, visit:
Reptiles are extremely shy creatures and can be diďŹƒcult to spot in the wild. September is a good time to catch the last glimpse of the year of these fascinating creatures as they will soon be disappearing into hibernation. Most will be gone by October, and not likely to emerge again until March, when the sun starts warming the land to meet the reptiles’ cold-blooded needs.

Michelle Dixon, who specialises in construction and engineering law, has been whittled down from 60 nominations to reach the final three. The ‘Professional of the Year’ award honours highly qualified women who excel in their professional occupation. This award is sponsored by ASH Elite, a Dorset-based specialist legal recruitment consultancy.

It’s an honour to be part of the Venus Awards, which prides itself on recognising and rewarding business women; something I believe in very strongly.” Darrell-Stuart Smith, partner and head of the commercial department at Humphries Kirk, said: “We’re all incredibly proud of Michelle.

Money Saving Tips
Martin
LEWIS 2YHUGUDIWV
Debit cards can be debt cards too. The competition watchdog’s set out plans to cap fees for busting your overdraft limit. This should help, but don’t wait. Overdrafts are a debt like any other, and the key is to cut the rate, repay faster and avoid any penalties. Most people’s overdrafts aren’t huge. My snap Twitter poll found 46% are under £250. Yet even then fees can be horrid. With some accounts, a constant £200 overdraft would cost you £365/yr. So even if you only dip in, you need to sort them. Here are my top tips you need to know. 1. Get PAID £100 to get a 0% overdraft. Best for overdrafts under c. £500 www.Firstdirect.com has won every customer service poll I’ve ever done, and 89% of its overdrawn customers rate it ‘great’. It offers accepted new switchers £100 (paid within around 28 days) – that’ll clear some of your overdraft to start with. Then for the remainder it gives a standard £250 interest-free overdraft (above £250, but within your limit, it’s 15.9% EAR, still relatively cheap). It’s a clear winner for those with overdrafts that never go over £350, and still likely best even if you owe a little more but intend to clear it. Do you qualify? You need to pay in at least £1,000/mth (equivalent to £13,100 salary) to get the bonus and ensure there’s no fee. Like all banks, First Direct does a credit check when you apply. 2. Free £150 bank switch bonus. Best for those who just dip into their overdraft If at the end of the month you occasionally slip into overdraft, www. co-operativebank.co.uk (70% rate it ‘great’) is a decent alternative. It currently gives an £150 switching bonus. If that’s enough to clear your overdraft so you needn’t touch it again, it’s an easy win - especially as you can also get up to £5.50/ mth on its Everyday Rewards scheme (you need to fulfil some criteria). If not, its authorised overdraft is 18.9% EAR, not bad for small amounts, but the bigger it gets, the costlier. Do you qualify? You’ll need to pay in at least £800/mth (equivalent to £9,850 salary) and switch at least four direct debits to get the £150 bonus. 3. Switch to 12 month 0% bank. Good for those with Bigger overdrafts. New customers with www.nationwide.co.uk’s FlexDirect (77% rate it ‘great’) get a year’s fee-free overdraft. There’s no set limit – it depends on credit score – but anecdotally its limits are decent (if you pass the credit score), as mattboliver tweeted me: “@
martinslewis Matched my old one - £1,200. Implied I could have asked for more, but the point was I wanted to pay off.” After a year, it’s 50p/day, less than other accounts charging daily fees, but even so, use that time to budget to clear the overdraft debt. Nationwide doesn’t require a min pay-in for its 0% overdraft, but you need pay in £1,000/mth if you want its 5% in-credit interest (equivalent to £13,100 salary). 4. You can SHIFT overdrafts to special 32mth 0% credit cards too A few specialist money-transfer cards let you pay cash into your bank to pay off your overdraft, then you owe them instead. This is useful for big overdrafts. My top pick is www.virginmoney.com, which gives accepted customers 32mths 0% for a one-off 1.69% fee (min £3) of the amount shifted. Need longer? www.tescobank.com is 40mths 0%, but with a higher 3.94% fee. Always follow the Money Transfer Golden Rules: a) These are special cards. Most don’t allow this, so be careful. There’s step-by-step help in my full money transfers guide at www. moneysavingexpert.com /moneytransfers. b) Always repay the monthly minimum or you’ll lose the 0% deal. c) Plan to clear by the end of the 0% period or they jump to the full rate, 20.9% and 20.6% rep APR. 5. Bank-charge reclaiming isn’t dead - ‘I got £865 in unfair bank charges back’ Overdraft charges for busting your credit limit are the only thing that give payday loans competition for cost. With fees of up to £6/ day or £15/transaction, they can mount up to £100s or £1,000s a year. Reports of the death of bank-charge reclaiming have been exaggerated. It can still be done, though now you need to be in financial hardship to claim. Full step-by-step help and template letters at www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim Claire emailed: “I’ll get 6 years of charges back and a goodwill £70 on top... total £865. Thanks Martin.” 6. Shift your direct debits to minimise fees. Ask companies you pay to shift your direct debits to just before you’re paid. So if you’re paid on the 25th, aim for the 20th. This artificially boosts your balance, so you’re in the red for less time, meaning fewer charges – but budget carefully and don’t forget those bills are coming. 7. Manage your way back into credit. Do a money makeover, checking everything you spend money on to see if you’re overspending such as energy, insurance, phone, broadband and more. Many can save £1,000s. Then do a detailed budget and stick to it. Full help to do this at www. moneysavingexpert.com/moneymakeover @MoneySavingExpert

Adventures of Nellie

The Adventures of Nellie
The Dorset Publications Camper Van Wow what weather we had for a good couple of months. Nellie has had to use lots of suncream this year, or was it polish? Still she looked good. The day she took Hayden and myself to Brownsea Island was a scorcher. Beautiful sunshine and hardly a cloud in sight. Stephen had gone off on a course to help him be more efficient, so I was all for that. Nellie was pleased too, as with her aging years she doesn’t take stress easily and is all for a relaxed, chilled out life these days. Anything Stephen can do to facilitate that, had to be good. This left Hayden and I (that’s correct English isn’t it?) with a day to ourselves. Where would Nellie take us? She did quite a bit of research on the internet to see how far places were and came up with the bright idea (as I said, it was a brilliantly sunny day) to take us to Brownsea Island. It was years since I had taken Hayden. He was a baby in a pram in fact, but don’t remind him of that, after all he is a grown up boy now and they don’t like it. You really feel you are going somewhere when you step on the boat at
Enjoying the harbour views from the water
Nellie on the quay with another old lady Poole Quay and sail off from the harbour wall. Nellie of course had to wave good bye at that point as she is too fat to get up the gangway. About that diet… Bobbing up and down, watching all the different boats sailing by, passing the busy dock on the opposite side, where really large cargo ships get filled with all their wares to go out to sea and sail to some foreign land, is so relaxing. There is definitely a whole ‘in the past feel’ about Poole Quay, as if time hasn’t fully moved on. Brownsea Island is very similar. Now owned by the National Trust and famous for its red squirrels, you have the sensation that you have stepped back in time and are miles away from anywhere. The island was owned by Mrs BonhamChristie from 1927. She was a recluse and gave everyone living there a year’s notice to leave. As a result the population went down from around 70 to 6! One advantage of that, though I am sure the residents would have had something else to say, is that the island preserved its authenticity, its simplicity, and nature

27 27 was allowed to flourish. The little Church built in 1853 is idyllic, a real chocolate box look. (Nellie does like her chocolate, as you can see from her thighs.) There is no lighting or water and services here held from May to September by candle light only. Apparently there maybe anywhere from two to three hundred at any given Church service. All of a sudden two minutes before the service starts 300 Brownies can arrive. That is a challenge for the Reverend! The scouting movement is very much embraced on the Island after the founder Robert Baden-Powell held his first camp there in 1907. The day we arrived there were many Guides and Scouts who were leaving after a great camp, by the look of it. I can imagine it is quite a place to stay in a tent, under the stars with very few people around and just the birds, peacocks and squirrels to keep you company. Nellie would love it, but sadly she would never be able to get there, let alone stay. Now boys will be boys, especially in this modern world we live in and Hayden had his phone with him trying to catch Pokemon. If you don’t know what that is, don’t worry. From what I understand, and believe me I am absolutely no expert, they are little animals that you find on your phone, wherever you may be. Very clever technology and in total juxtaposition (for those not so quite well educated, that
The church on Brownsea Island
Amazing views from the northern shore means, “the fact of two things being seen or placed close together with contrasting effect”. Nellie taught me it! ) with the ‘old’ island, set back a century or so ago. Apparently there is a ‘Pikachu’ on the island! These are rare and much sought after by Pokemon players, so that was very exciting. Hayden didn’t catch it, but it was good fun trying. I have to say that a day with Hayden on my own was totally fulfilling. We don’t get many chances in our busy lives to just take time out, time together and chill. Nellie’s sole purpose in life is to help us do just that, which is why we bought her. I am so glad we did. Hayden and I walked to the fantastic beaches on the North side of the Island and gazed at the beautiful scenery. It really is quite spectacular. After some time walking I asked Hayden what he would like to do. Knowing his Mum very well, and having an ‘old head on young shoulders’ he suggested we go back to the café for an hour to have something to eat… and a coffee, before boarding our boat to take us back to reality. What an incredible day. Nellie was delighted we had enjoyed it so much. She was patiently waiting in the car park and sprung into step as soon as I turned her engine on. Love her. Where will she take us next…? By Debbie Corney

Gardening Tips
34 34
On Your Plot Benefits of Garlic
Time spent on clearing and preparing your beds now will pay dividends next year. Make the most of the autumn sunshine to get compost dug into bare beds and you’ll have saved yourself hours of work on those chilly Spring days.
Jobs for October :-
• Make sure that plenty of sun can get to your pumpkins in order to get them ripe in time for Halloween. • Plant garlic, shallots and Japanese onions. • Leaving dead seed heads etc. on your flower borders will provide valuable food and shelter for garden wildlife over winter, as will leaving an undisturbed log or two. Build a rough shelter in a quiet corner and you might get a hedgehog move in! • If you get lots of fallen leaves on your plot don’t waste them. Make a bin from chicken wire attached to 4 posts. Fill this with the leaves and they will rot down to give you sweet-smelling black leaf mould in one to two years tim.
As the days get shorter and the weather gets cooler the focus on your vegetable plot starts to turn from growing and harvesting, into clearing and tidying. October is a good month for taking stock of how things have gone this year and starting to make plans for what you will grow in the future. Removing spent crops exposes slugs and other such pests to birds and other garden friendly wildlife. It also gives you the chance to look after your soil and assess how the space will be used next. Crop rotation is important so if the space is to remain bare over winter it may be wise to make notes about what grew where this season. Add matter from your compost heap to newly cleared areas, either digging it in, or leaving a layer on the top where the worms will gradually incorporate it into the deeper soil over winter. If the soil is heavy leaving it bare will enable frosts to help break it up. Our soil is lighter and benefits from being covered over - we use flattened cardboard boxes which protect from the rain (and we’ve all had enough of that lately!), and
also help keep the weeds at bay. You may think that it’s all too late in the year to be planting, but there are some crops that definitely need to be thought of now, and others that, given an early start now, will benefit next Spring. If you’ve not grown garlic before, then do try it - it’s easy to grow, can help protect other crops from pests, and with just a small amount of space you can grow enough to see you through the whole year! Now is definitely the time to order your garlic bulbs and they can be planted anytime between now and Christmas, but preferably not when the soil is too wet. Rather than planting all the garlic together it may pay to spread it around the plot as the strong smell can be an aid in keeping pests such as the carrot root fly away from other crops. Each garlic bulb should be separated into individual cloves and the cloves are planted with the pointed end uppermost, just below the surface, leaving about 4 inches between each one. They like well drained soil and you’ll be pleasantly surprised in the long winter days to see their green tips creeping upwards. Each clove matures into a whole new bulb. The traditional time for harvesting garlic is in June, on the longest day of the year and if properly dried and stored it will keep right through the winter. Would you like some fresh, tender, young, peas early in the Spring next year? Look out for hardy varieties that can be planted now. They can be overwintered and are able to withstand the frosts, though protection with a cloche will be appreciated. We will be starting ours in pots to keep in the polytunnel over winter ready for early planting next season.

Tastes so good...
PULLED PORK SANDWICHES
As the temperature drops, we find ourselves wanting more easy to make, comfort food. Not only is this dish simple to create is also tastes delicious. Perfect for quiet Autumn nights in.
Ingredients for 12 servings 1 medium onion (chopped) ½ cup of ketchup ¼ cup of packed brown sugar ¼ cup of tomato paste 2tbsp. Worcestershire sauce 1/3 cup of cider vinegar 2tbp. sweet paprika 1 ½ tsp. Salt 1 ¼ tsp. ground black pepper 4lb boneless pork shoulder 12 buns or ciabatta rolls
Equipment: Large slow-cooker, large bowl, forks Method: Mix together the onion, ketchup, brown sugar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, paprika, mustard and then add the salt and the pepper. Once you have done this, pour the sauce mixture into the slow cooker pot and add the pork, making sure to also coat it in sauce. Pop the lid on top of the slow cooker and cook the pork. Do this on a low setting (one which the manufacturer recommends). Cook until the pork is tender for between 8-10 hours. When it is finally cooked, move the pork from the slow cooker into a large bowl. Change the temperature setting on the cooker to ‘high’, cover the pot and then cook the sauce. Do this until boiling point is reached to make the mixture thicker. Pull the pork apart into shreds (you can use 2 forks for this). Then put the shredded pork back into the slow cooker, mixing it into the sauce. Cover once again and cook on high. Finally, once warmed through, spoon mixture into buns and serve.
