Happy New Year to all in West Moors!

Well we had a fantastic Christmas with my family up in Hull. There is nothing like 22 northern family members getting together. We thoroughly enjoyed it. I didn’t quite get the time off as I wanted and spent quite a lot of it in the kitchen! No rest for the wicked I realised, smiling… Hayden was thrilled with all his presents. On Christmas Eve I said in a rather hopeful way, “8am tomorrow Hayden”, to which he replied “Ok Mummy.”

To my astonishment he woke up at 7.49am and whispered “It’s Christmas Day Mummy!” I replied “Oh Yes!” and then Hayden got back into his airbed on the floor… I was speechless. A few minutes later at 7.54 he whispered “Just 6 minutes to go Mummy!” I smiled.

Then at 7.58 he suggested, “If we go downstairs now Mummy it will be 8am by the time we get there!” This really touched me. We are very lucky.

It is back to some normality now after our New Year’s celebrations. Did you make any New Year’s Resolutions? I have made some and I think the key is to plan them out and set small goals, one at a time.

That way I think I can achieve them. Good luck with yours! We have a full West Moors Directory for you this first month of 2013. The trades and business people eagerly wait to hear from you. Heart of India has a bargain meal price which maybe of interest and save you one evening from too much washing up!

There are also a variety of articles to read. If you have a club, society or event coming up that you want to promote, make sure we tell the residents in The West Moors Directory! If you have a business in and around West Moors please call. We can definitely help you be more established and successful.

Wishing you all a terrific 2013!

All the Very Best,

Debbie and Stephen Useful Numbers

Ashley Blinds open new showroom in Poole More good news from Ashley Blinds. They are pleased to announce that their new showroom and office will be opening on 1st February 2013 at 325 Wimborne Road, Poole, that’s at the Oakdale traffic lights.

The owners say that they have recently experienced a surge in new customers and need more space to maintain their very high level of customer support and service.

They believe the increase has come about as Ashley Blinds now have a greater range and choice of product than any other similar company in the area. This year has seen Ashley Blinds & Curtains receive public accreditations from Trading Standards and from Checkrade. They have also received accreditations within the industry certifying them for work in schools, prisons and public places such as government buildings, plus they have received manufacturing accreditations for straight and bent or curved tracking, with cord or hand drawn operation.

They still provide a rock solid service for every type of internal and external blind plus solar inserts and window film where blinds may not be the ideal solution.

The new building will also incorporate training facilities to further enhance the extremely high level of knowledge and

TWMD January 2013 page 8

expertise customers have come to expect from Ashley Blinds. Martin Jardine, owner of Ashley Blinds & Curtains said, "Our new facility is there to support our home visits as there is only one place a customer can really see if a fabric works or not. Our new showroom is here to help this process and will in no way replace the home visit.�

Ashley now have over 14,000 satisfied customers throughout Dorset. Will you be their next one? Call 01202 661920 for an appointment.

Sleeping Beauty in Bournemouth!

The story begins at Princess Rose’s christening, which is rudely and hilariously interrupted by the evil, yet lovable, witch Carabosse, splendidly played by Su Pollard.

Skip forward 17 years and we meet the princess on the eve of her 18th Birthday, and of course her Prince Charming, Prince Asa of Benidorm. I’m sure I wasn’t alone when I thought that the Princess was one lucky girl, aside from the whole curse thing of course.

The traditional ‘panto’ sense of humour was ever present, and cleverly worded to have children and adults alike roaring with laughter. The audience were also singing along and thoroughly enjoying the starstudded interactive entertainment laid out before them.

The show was scattered with performances featuring modern tunes, adapted to illustrate this age old tale perfectly, and of course to get the audience boogying; the musical numbers were brilliantly orchestrated. The local dancers were absolutely superb, with a range of ages but consistently fabulous talent. And on a school night!

We were relieved to see that Colin Baker made it back from the jungle in one piece as he was perfectly cast as the wonderful Nanny Nelly. In her wig and brightly coloured mismatched clothes, she never failed to animate the audience as she tried her best to keep the other characters in check. In particular Happy Harry, played by Chris

TWMD January 2013 page 12

Jarvis, who had a tendency to take anything Nanny Nelly said quite literally, with hilarious consequences.

I would suggest that you do not sit in the front if you are adverse to a water pistol or two, but that is arguably the best seat in the house for catching sweets. Tough choice.

A massive acknowledgement is owed to Happy Harry (played by CBeebie’s Chris Jarvis) for not only performing magnificently, but also writing and directing the whole show. It was incredible to not only watch, but to get involved in. Highly recommended!

Talking about wildlife...

Homes for nesting birds As we enter the midst of winter, it’s time to clear out the nest boxes in our gardens. Nest boxes provide sites in which birds can roost and are particularly important during the breeding season. Some birds will begin t o fight o ver space as early as February.

The nest boxes in your garden must be clean to protect birds from pests and disease. Unfortunately, old nests are infested with fleas, feather mites and parasites, which remain in nest boxes throughout the winter months.

In order to clear your nest boxes of these parasites, remove the old nests and debris. Next, cover the nest box in boiling water. Allow the house to dry completely before closing the lid.

Do not use chemicals or insecticides as these can be harmful to birds.

As you clean your nest box, you may come across unhatched eggs. It is legal to remove these from the nest between August and January and they should be disposed of to leave the nest clean for the next breeding season.

Before you return the nest box to its location, check for hazards such as

TWMD January 2013 page 16

loose hinges, nails and splinters. You can fill the bottom of your clean nest box with wood shavings and birds may choose to roost there over winter, but there is no need to put anything inside. Do not inspect nest boxes when they are in use. Ensure your garden is equipped with the appropriate food, water and nesting material, which can include dog hair a n d t he co nt ent s o f y o u r o wn hairbrush! Happy bird watching!

Coming up: Tuesday 19th February Nest Box Event and Green Fayre for all the family, including free nest box building. Verwood Opportunity Centre, Brock Way, Verwood, BH31 7QE. For more information about events or how to help birds in your garden, visit dorsetwildlifetrust.org.uk.

New hearing centre opens in Verwood Three years ago Clarity Hearing Solutions opened their first hearing centre in Christchurch High Street. In that time they have become one of the fastest growing, independent hearing specialists in the country.

They have just opened their second centre at 2 St. Stephens Lane, Verwood.

When asked how they have achieved this success in these tough economic times it seems the answer is remarkably straight forward.

"We treat people the way we would like to be treated. Instead of thinking “What can we get away with?” we are more likely to say “What can we do extra that will be appreciated and remembered?”

We h ave e stab lish ed v ery stron g relationships with our clients and would consider many of them to be personal friends.

With an established relationship comes trust and it is this, I believe, that has helped us to be successful in a challenging market place."

Director and hearing aid audiologist Heather Cowell says "It’s lovely to be here in Verwood where we already have many clients. We have three qualified hearing aid audiologists at Clarity Hearing and we all live in Verwood so it made a lot of sense for us to open our second centre h e r e. W e r ea ll y lo ok fo r w ard t o welcoming both existing and new clients to our spacious, modern, dedicated hearing centre."

Complete independence allows Clarity Hearing to offer hearing solutions from all

TWMD January 2013 page 20

of the world’s leading manufacturers. This includes the very latest ‘invisible’ hearing aids and a whole range of smart, discreet devices to suit all budgets.

If you think your hearing is not as good as it should be call Clarity Hearing for a free evaluation. They will undertake a detailed test at no charge and be able to advise you whether you would benefit from assistance and, if so, discuss a range of options with you. There will be no high pressure tactics, just honest, professional advice to help you make an informed decision.

You could also pop along to their open day on Friday 25th January between 10am and 3pm.
