Dear Neighbours, Happy Halloween! Do Stephen and I look pretty Edition 114 scary? This was us at a party last year. It certainly was a good excuse to let our hair down. Well our gorgeous weather has continued, with a little rain and cooler temperature beginning to show. Did you manage Stephen & Debbie Corney as Dracula & Wicked Witch to make the most of our English countryside and seaside over the summer? Nellie took us to Bournemouth sea front for Grandma’s 70th Birthday party! You can read about our monthly ‘Adventures of Nellie’ on pages 38 and 39. We also have other community news… Ann Montini meets the Stars and this month she meets Englebert Humperdinck. We expect a bumper harvest at the Furleigh Estate this autumn. This year’s Dorset Plane Pull was a great success. Dorset Wildlife Trust are batty about bats. East Dorset residents asked about proposed parish changes. Exotic Reptiles arrive at Honeybrook Family Farm. Lots of variety for you to read. Of course there are our very important local trades and services. Each of them would love to hear from you. So whether you need a new aerial for the TV or a cozy woodburner, you will find all those listed from a-w inside The Ferndown & West Parley Directory. Please let the advertisers know where you found their details, this makes all our work worthwhile, which is much appreciated. The winner of the meal for two last month was Sue Finch, well done to you. Could it be you this month? Go... have a go! We hope you have a great October and November. Very best wishes,

. . . s r a t S e h t s t e e m i Ann Montin
This month’s star is
Englebert Humperdinck Singing legend Engelbert Humperdinck shot to fame with the hit song “Release Me“ he is now back with a great new album and planned tour. The New Album is called “Engelbert Calling”.
truly was a star and I loved him so much... he really taught me about style and class... many people loved him, and he is greatly missed, Mr Moonlight you know and we don’t have stars like that today which is unfortunate. “
Ann – Brilliant new album how did it all come about?
Ann – Eurovision... We all had such high hopes with you?
Engelbert – “Simply Sir Elton John... once he was on board that was it, many others wanted to join in, which was great and you know I owe him a lot... What a guy and super star “
Engelbert – “I loved doing the show, but you know I lost out to Russian singing grannies, that actually baked bread while on stage... I mean what chance have you against that, and more so, what is it to do with the song or winning... Madness really.“
Ann – It’s a brilliant list of people though... Engelbert – “It is, and so many I enjoyed Smokey Robinson, Neil Sedaka and Gene Simmons... all were so helpful, and together I am very blessed with this album. It’s the album that I think will define me in years to come... Well hopefully.” Ann – It’s been well received and already a huge chart hit – thoughts? Engelbert – “You know Ann every album is always a worry, but to get this kind of reaction at this stage of my career is simply super, I had no idea, and we have been so stunned in that respect, but it’s also so nice... I am so grateful to my fans, it’s for them and they have taken this to their hearts... what more can you ask really.“
Ann – What is next for you? Engelbert – “I am touring again and doing dates all over the world, I love to travel, and never tire of it, but then after that starting work on the next album, which is going to be called ”Engelbert Redialled“ as we have more duets that we could not fit on the first album, I am touring so look out for dates, and then we start recording again.” Ann – Finally a message for your fans here in the UK... Engelbert – “Quite simply without you I am nothing, and I am so grateful for the love and respect that we have had together over the last 48 years... I wish them all much love.”
Ann – You tell me that you owe your career break though, to another singer who? Engelbert – “It’s true. Remember the late great Dickie Valentine... well he had to pull out of the TV show “Sunday Night at the London Palladium “ and they gave me the slot. He thanked me for helping him out, and that really was the start of it all. You could say in fact it’s because of him I am here today... He was such a kind guy too and super talented.“ Ann – You also admired and were a great friend to another singing legend... Engelbert – Ah yes, the wonderful Frankie Vaughn... he

Our pledge to you We know from your feedback that when you come to one of our hospitals for medical support, the way you are treated and the customer care you receive can make a big difference. We understand that a kind word and a smile can really help, whether this be from the volunteer who greets you, the porter who takes you from one place to another or someone from our Patient Advice and Liaison Team listening to your concerns. We have worked with our staff and listened to your views and you can now see our ‘dignity pledges’ around the hospitals - we want you to challenge us if these are not being upheld. We will: 1. introduce ourselves to you at all times 2. acknowledge you when you arrive 3. only hold relevant conversations in the clinical and public areas and involve you appropriately 4. always address you by your preferred name 5. ensure discussions about treatment or diagnosis are carried out sensitively and as privately as possible 6. knock before entering your room or call before entering through a curtain 7. offer a chaperone to accompany you on examinations or procedures on request 8. ensure you (and your carers) are involved in decisions about your care 9. offer you the opportunity to wash your hands after using toilet facilities and prior to meal times 10. ensure we protect your modesty at all times 11. ensure your curtains are properly closed when you are undressing 12. ensure we have your permission before a person bathes or examines you.

PALS Our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS), based in the main atrium of the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, offers advice, handles complaints and helps solve a range of issues. Their office has been redesigned recently so patients and visitors can drop in and sit with a member of the team, rather than talking to them at a counter. PALS Co-ordinator, Jennie Moffat, says: “We wanted to make it more open and welcoming but also to be able to provide an environment where people who want to talk more privately, can.” The team have also recently worked with The Patients Association to learn more about complaints and are working closely with the wards to encourage staff to deal with any issues on the spot. Jennie says: “We’re a friendly and approachable team and I feel we do make a difference to the patients. “We also get patients who come in and say ‘are you here so we can say thank you as well?’, and that’s really encouraging.”
Mike Horey, Porter “One of the best parts of the job is getting to know patients and their backgrounds. Often you build good relationships with those who are in the hospital for a significant length of time, and you become their first port of call for advice, reassurance and stress release. Some just want a friendly pair of ears.u Steve Grant-Foale loves his job as a volunteer, greeting and helping patients and visitors. “Several years ago I had serious brain surgery which saved my life, so I wanted to give something back to say thank you. Many of our patients and visitors are coming into an unfamiliar environment and feel nervous about this. They may also be feeling very unwell so it’s important to me to help them feel more comfortable and relaxed. I can also share my own experience of being a patient to reassure them.”

Community News
East Dorset residents asked for views on proposed parish changes Residents in East Dorset are being asked for their views on a public consultation including proposals to change some parish and town council boundaries. The consultation, which is open until 7 November 2014, will give residents the chance to comment on draft recommendations that have come about following a previous consultation carried out between April and July 2014. Parish and town councils were invited to put forward submissions during that consultation and those submissions have been taken into account when drawing up the draft recommendations. Submissions included suggested changes in boundaries, reductions in the number of parish councillors or the removal of wards within a parish. The aim of the review is to improve local democracy and ensure better cohesion of communities across the district. It is also designed to address inconsistencies in the ratios of electors to councillors. Each parish has been addressed separately, though some recommendations include changes which would affect neighbouring parishes. Draft recommendations include some changes to the boundaries of Ferndown, West Parley, Colehill and Wimborne including the transfer of: r properties at Stapehill West from Ferndown to Colehill r properties in Colehill West, Colehill Lacey and Colehill Parmiter to Wimborne r properties in Barrack Road, Ferndown to West Parley
There is also a proposal to transfer properties in Horton East to Verwood. Other proposals include the reduction in parish or town councillors in Ferndown from 23 to 19, in Colehill from 15 to 11, in West Moors from 15 to 12, in Corfe Mullen from 16 to 14 and in St Leonards & St Ives from 13 to 12. An increase in town councillors in Wimborne from 12 to 16 is also proposed. Full details of the draft proposals are on the website at: www.dorsetforyou.com/412554 Representations should be made by email to: cgr@christchurchandeastdorset.gov.uk by post to: East Dorset District Council, Furzehill, Wimborne BH21 4HN to arrive by midnight on 7 November 2014. The final decision on the draft proposals will be made at a council meeting on 15 December 2014.

Charity Parachute Descent On the 10th September 2014, Miss Emma Paul, manageress of PRAMA CARE West Moors, carried out a parachute descent on behalf of PRAMA. Naturally this was to raise awareness of the Charity and to raise money. The jump was a tandem and was carried out at Netheravon airfield, home of The Red Devils. Emma was briefed and kitted out and was soon aboard the aircraft taking her up to 14,000 feet. Feeling rather daunted at the prospect of chucking ones self out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft, nevertheless she was determined to raise money for the charity. Remarkably Emma enjoyed her time in freefall (some 10,000 feet) before the canopy was deployed. Emma is a determined young lady and naturally
Major Barry Andrews (retired) after his solo jump
Emma Paul with her tandem partner safely back on the ground keen to help the less able amongst us. The local West Moors shop alone had over £400 donated. INCIDENTALLY, WE ARE STILL GATHERING DONATIONS FROM THE OTHER PRAMA SHOPS. Along with Emma was Major Barry Andrews (retired), aged 77 years. Barry also carried out a SOLO parachute jump from 4000 feet. Naturally, Barry being ex Parachute Regiment Officer, was really there to support Emma, and being a volunteer at West Moors shop, was also keen to show the way. Barry is also President of the Dorset Parachute Regiment Association and therefore keen to show the flag and raise interest in any ex service men who would like to join the branch, not necessarily Parachute Regiment. Barry has had an extensive career with the Regiment from 1957 until retiring in 1992, having commanded 1 Para’s Pathfinders and served in many areas of the world.

to your legal questions
Every month the solicitors and lawyers at Harold G Walker will be providing answers to your questions about the law. What is a Lasting Power of Attorney and why is it recommended to have one?
affairs. You can include restrictions and guidance for your attorneys.
A LPA is a legal document which allows you to appoint a trusted person(s) to run your affairs if you are incapacitated due to illness or accident or for any other reason (non-illness related). You can appoint up to 4 persons and appoint replacements - these persons are called your “Attorneys” and can be any persons of your choice. They are usually a friend or family member but can be a professional such as your solicitor.
Your attorneys cannot do whatever they like – they must follow the principles of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (this includes helping you to make as many of your own decisions as possible. They cannot presume you cannot make your own decisions just because you have made an unwise decision etc).
Sheila Collins
Wills & Probate Lawyer
You can appoint attorneys to act on your behalf in relation to your health and welfare, and/or your property and financial
I am buying a property and my son, who is 19, will be living with me. He is not buying the property with me but my mortgage lender wants him to sign a Deed of Postponement or Waiver. Why is this? As you are buying the property, you will sign the Mortgage Deed and by doing so agree to the terms and conditions of the mortgage, including repayment of the capital and interest. If you fail to make the repayments, the Lender may evict you under the terms of the Mortgage. If you have an adult who permanently resides at the property with you, although he is not on the legal title and has not signed the mortgage deed, he may have rights as an occupier and it will be difficult for the Lender to evict him. The
You can only set up an LPA while you have the mental capacity to make decisions. If you become mentally unable to make your own decisions, the Courts will appoint a Deputy to work on your behalf. A Deputy works very much like an Attorney, but has the added complexity of strict Court oversight and involvement (which results in the inevitable extra costs and delays for you in the long run). Lender, therefore, requires your son to sign the Deed of Postponement to state that he is aware that you purchased the property with the aid of a mortgage and that should you fail to make the repayments and you are evicted, he will leave the property with you and have no legal right over and above the Lender’s right to possession. A Lender will not give a mortgage advance until a Deed of Postponement has been signed by any permanent adult occupier. All Lenders are keen to ensure that any occupier receives independent legal Nicola Lowe advice on this particular Wills & Probate Lawyer issue.

West Moors Lunch and Friendship Club
The West Moors Lunch and Friendship Club meets on a Wednesday in St Anthony of Padua church hall, Pinehurst Road. Lunch is served at midday after members have had time for a chat and a look at the table sale of greetings cards, books and donated items, followed by tea or coffee and the weekly raffle. Recently we‛ve enjoyed giant Scrabble, an interesting talk on tea towels, and a video about Joan‛s trip to Buckingham Palace using the new projector. Our day ends with afternoon tea & cakes or biscuits and a game or two of bingo. Supported by: We‛re now looking forward to our 40th Anniversary in November. We hope to have a special lunch on the 5th of November. Club contact: Joan on 01202 891519

#EYECANSEECLEARLYNOW EyeStyle Centre Opticians in West Moors, Ferndown is now offering new and existing patients a special offer of a complimentary second pair of spectacle lenses with every purchase of Crizal. It’s a great opportunity to get two new pairs of glasses at a greatly reduced price.
Crizal spectacle lenses are always our first choice as they offer protection against the six enemies of clear vision. They protect against glare, scratches, smudges, dust, water and UV, giving you superior vision whilst eliminating all of the annoying factors that come with wearing glasses.
At EyeStyle Centre Opticians, we don’t believe in giving you a ‘spare’ pair of specs, every pair we dispense has a primary purpose, they aren’t for keeping in the back of a dusty cupboard.
When wondering if you need two new pairs of glasses, ask yourself how many pairs of shoes you have.
Your second pair can be tinted prescription lenses, polarising lenses, even a nice clear pair to wear with a designer frame so you can alternate your look.
Come in and see us today for some expert advice and to have access to the quality of vision you have only ever dreamed of.
We also want to dispel the myth that all spectacle lenses are the same. That’s simply not the case. They can vary so much in design, material, comfort, protection against glare and scratches and more importantly, overall quality. You may be able to get two cheap pairs of glasses, but they are cheap FOR a reason! Because we’re an independent optician, we treat you as an individual and give your vision the time and attention it deserves. Unlike some retail chains, we have the freedom of choice and only recommend products of the highest quality.
You would never compromise with only one pair so don’t compromise on your vision and eye health.
Call us for an appointment on 01202 890904.

Adventures of Nellie
38
The Adventures of Nellie The Dorset Publications Camper Van Well Nellie, the Dorset Publications Campervan was very excited about this one. She was going to take Grandma on a ‘mystery’ 70th Birthday treat. Grandma had no idea where she was going, let alone what she would be doing. Grandma and Grandad live all the way up North in Hull and often come to visit, but living so close to Bournemouth with our beautiful beaches we don’t always make the most of it. So, my sister and I did some plotting a scheming and decided a trip to the seaside would be just what Mum and Dad would love. It was kept as a very guarded secret and even Hayden, our ten year old son, would not give the game away, when asked many questions by a playful Grandma and Grandad. The day came and we set off in Nellie. Lady J, my sister’s and brother-in-law’s rather nice Jaguar followed closely behind. The weather was good, the sun was shining and Grandma and Grandad were sitting, a little perplexed, clutching a rather large suitcase which was ready for anything I think! Nellie was in her element. We drove along the sea front and arrived at our destination - The Cumberland Hotel,
Enjoying the view from the balcony
Where will Nellie be taking me? which is part of the Oceana Hotels and a grand looking building right on the cliff top in Bournemouth. Dad’s mouth was open, but for once and believe me this is rare, he was not able to speak. Mum stood in amazement. We were a little early and so were treated to a complimentary drink at the pool side while our sea view rooms were prepared. Nellie was kept on guard in the car park. The views from our rooms were spectacular. We each had a balcony and on the glorious day that it was, it was fantastic to relax and sit looking at the clear blue shimmering sea. What a wonderful place we live in! Now… having a ten year old boy doesn’t mean you can do this for long! No Mummy, action is needed. It’s time to play, get moving, no time to chill out. So, we all went back to the poolside and had a swim in the heated outdoor pool. It was really rather good. Grandma and Grandad relaxed some more, sunbathing on the loungers watching us. Dinner was booked for 8pm. The menu was excellent, the service was perfect and a great evening was had by all. A dinner well deserving of a 70th Birthday.
39 Being so near to where we live meant that Hayden could be taken to school, so the following day he went to an early breakfast which he thoroughly enjoyed and then Nellie took him off to get his education. We had booked a massage for Mum in the adjacent hotel which is part of the three Oceana Hotels on the sea front. The advantage of these hotels is that if you stay in one you can use the facilities of the other two as well. Each hotel has something different to offer. Again it was a beautiful day – not bad for the 22nd September! Dad likes his sunbathing, so again the loungers next to this pool were a welcome site as you can see here. Getting up was not so easy though! After Grandma’s very special Birthday massage we all took a walk along the sea front down to the beach. There is an impressive Tribute to Jon Egging from the Red Arrows, who tragically lost his life after a Bournemouth Airshow display. This is based on an idea by two pupils from Kinson Primary School and was designed by the artist Tim Ward. I had not seen it before. Then we followed the path to Harry Ramsden’s! What an international fame this
Jon Egging tribute on the East Cliff
The West Moors Directory
“Out for the count” and “Give us a hand!” has become. Mum remembered 55 years ago going into a ‘shack’ up North to get fish and chips from Harry’s place. That brought fond memories back for her. We just had to go in to taste the delights. Grandma loved the setting and she very nearly ran off with one of their plates! The waiter didn’t quite have to do a rugby tackle at the door, but it was a close shave…. Apparently they get asked often if the plates can be taken or purchased. A very clever idea! It all adds to the authenticity of the surroundings. The meal was delicious and ended a really happy 24 hours ‘away’. We are so very lucky to live in such a glorious location. Mum’s Birthday was a resounding success. Dad sent us a thank you card on their return to Yorkshire which said, “We were completely taken aback. Mum was overwhelmed by it and will remember her 70th for quite some time!” We didn’t quite manage to get her on the new zip wire…maybe we will save that for next time? Where will Nellie go next…?

Chocks Away
at the 2014 Dorset Plane Pull
The 6th Dorset Plane Pull saw more than fifteen teams enlisted to pull a Boeing 737 a muscle busting 50 metres at Bournemouth Airport. Three of those teams were pulling and raising money for the JTYAF and many of their team members have been supporting the event and the charity for many years.

Well the cadets were not to be put off and on their second attempt managed a pretty tidy pull in just over a minute. A big thank you to Team BCFT who were sadly unable to join us on the rearranged day but still managed to raise a fantastic £444 in sponsorship. Rus Jolley and his team from ‘The Conditioning Centre‘ were the second JTYAF team to pull and they came in as runners up in a fantastic 43 seconds, pipped to the finishing line by this year and last year’s winners, ‘Al of a Pull.’
Finally it was down to the Air Cadets from 2358 (Ferndown) and 130 (Bournemouth)
Well done and thank you to all the team members and especially to Chris Morson, Rus Jolley and Chris Symonds who organised everyone, making sure that they had their ID on the day. A huge thank you to Richard Griffin, Peter, Kyrie and Carl Feltham and to all the Plane Pull team as this is one huge event to organise and they do a fantastic job, juggling their full time jobs alongside a massive amount of preparation. The cadets from 2358 (Ferndown) and 130 (Bournemouth) Squadrons of the Air Training Corps have been supporting the event since it started in 2009 and their help is crucial to the success of the event and we can’t thank them enough.

BEWARE – PIRATES TO HIT POOLE! Take a ship-load of brigands led by the fearsome King, add young apprentice pirate Frederic who espies winsome Mabel on the beach and, despite her protective Father, has romance in mind. To this paradox weave in a bevy of pretty daughters plus the inept local constabulary and the result is Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance. Into the topsy-turvy plot mix magical music and merriment as Bournemouth G&S Operatic Society presents this light-hearted and lively opera. Favourite songs include the soaring ‘Poor Wand’ring One’, patter song ‘I am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General’ and the much-loved ‘A Policeman’s Lot is not a Happy One’. Don’t miss this polished production – tickets selling fast! Meet the motley crew at Lighthouse, Poole from 22nd to 25th October at 7.30pm, matinees Thursday 23rd and Saturday 25th at 2.30pm.

FURLEIGH ESTATE vineyard & winery expected to enjoy a
bumper harvest this autumn
English vineyard and winery Furleigh Estate is expecting its best-ever harvest this autumn, and has estimated that it will produce approximately 100,000 bottles of award-winning, still and sparkling wine as a result.
This year’s harvest is anticipated to be twice as large as the previous record yield, in 2010. What’s more, in one of its vineyards the crop is predicted to be even bigger than the total sum of all of the previous harvests, as a result of two consecutive years of great summer weather. Situated in Salway Ash in West Dorset, this former dairy farm is owned and managed by husband and wife team, Rebecca Hansford and Ian Edwards. The couple planted their first vine just over nine years ago in 2005. Today, more than 22,000 Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier vines grow on the south-facing slopes of the Estate. Rebecca Hansford, owner of Furleigh Estate, said: “We are so
excited about this year’s bumper harvest. It’s come at a significant time for us as we enter our 10th year as a working vineyard and winery. “A dry Glastonbury festival and a warm Wimbledon are usually reliable indicators that the grape harvest is going to be good, so we’ve had high hopes since the start of the summer. We are so fortunate that the English climate has been kind to the vines this season!” Harvest takes place over three weeks from mid-October. Furleigh Estate’s vineyard and winery will be open to the public during this time for two very special harvest lunches.
