Cloudy2Clear Windows - Service with a smile!
I
t’s been a crazy few months for Cloudy2Clear Windows. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes - not the frames has grown rapidly as homeowners take advantage of their services. Managing Director Billy Harley feels that it’s all about service. ‘Our product is simple. If your double glazing is misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 5 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Many tradespeople have struggled since last year and I honestly feel that during the good times a minority perhaps didn’t focus on customer care as much as they should have done. We make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the
customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. I often get comments back from customers on how they really didn’t expect that sort of service which, in a way, is very sad for the service industry as a whole. ’ Cloudy2Clear service the Milton Keynes, Bedford and Leighton Buzzard areas and Billy is finding that his approach is a major factor in his success. ‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated .’
So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Billy a cal l for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Mercedes Benz C63 AMG Saloon Auto Reviewed 16/10/13
T
his is, hands down, THE most AMAZING car I have EVER DRIVEN!!!
The engine on this car is a whopping great 6.3-litre petrol V8, which develops 457bhp!! People covering a lot of miles may want to look away now, as in the real world this car is only doing 15 MPG. Having said that, it will be the best fun you have ever had doing 15 miles.
It oozes luxury as standard with its Command Online Multi-Media System, Designo Two Tone Leather, Heated Front Seats, Memory Pack, Sun Roof, Bluetooth, Auto Lights and Wipers, and much, much more. It’s crazy really that this is a super sports car, yet it is so practical; 5 doors, 5 proper seats, lots of leg room, a cavernous boot, and drives fine around town - you really wouldn’t know the size of the engine unless you put your foot down. It also comes
in a Coupe or an estate option. The appearance of the car is great too; it looks like an American muscle car with German finesse, with its wide tyres and rippled bonnet, and the noise it makes is something else, although in some ways it still comes across understated - you could easily use this as your every day car. Under the bonnet, each car has a silver plate engraved with the name of the person that built the car. All the engines are hand built and Mercedes have a ‘one man, one engine’ policy, so the shell is built in the normal factory after which it goes to AMG where they add the engine, brakes, and suspension. Having driven an Audi S4 and BMW M3 recently, there is just no comparison - in my view the Mercedes wins hands down. MPH = 23.8 Combine d Top speed = 155 (Li mited) 0-60 = 4.3 CO2 = 280g/km On the road price £5 5,000 (Lease price £499+v at over 2 years with 6 payments up front based on 10k miles a year)

Memories are made of this…
S
toring your treasures in the loft, under your bed or on a shelf collecting dust is probably a lot less than your favourite pieces deserve.
The majority of us gather a variety of souvenirs and memorabilia over the years, most of which ends up pushed into a box and forgotten.
certificate, your daughter’s ballet shoes or your son’s first football shirt, these items are as priceless, as the memories that go with them. Framing your favourite objects doesn’t just look good, if you use the correct materials it can help preserve them as well. Valuable or sentimentally important pieces should always be framed using conservation materials. Conservation framing preserves and protects artwork, photographs or objects by using materials which will not harm the piece and will as much as possible protect it from physical damage. Handmade picture or memorabilia frames are a great cost effective way to transform your space, and at Ciqo Artworks our experience tells us it’s always best to provide our initial consultation at our clients address. We accurately assess the best way to provide what you really like, whilst saving you the trouble of having to take your valued items into a shop for framing.
If you would like to consider having ite ms framed, for your ho me or business, then please call us, our ini tial consultation is Free… Ciqo Artwor ks on 01908 613341 .
Photographs are the most obvious memento that can be framed, however by simply adding articles like programs and tickets you can give a whole new dimension to your pictures and the memories they represent. Also and thanks to some clever box designs you don’t have to limit yourself to the traditional framed items either – pretty much anything can be framed in some way especially your very own sporting treasures… that first swimming

Secklow Sounds - your local online community radio station
A
s Milton Keynes prime online community radio station, Secklow Sounds is a non-profit station run entirely on a voluntary basis. Although there are future plans to transmit on FM, currently you can only listen to programmes on the internet at www.secklowsounds.org where it broadcasts a wide range of exciting live and recorded programmes around the clock. You can also listen to programmes on demand via www.spreaker.com or www.mixcloud.com or through the station’s website. There’s really something for everyone, with programmes presented by an enthusiastic and committed team of 50+volunteers from all backgrounds and age groups, each bringing their own specialities on a wide range of music and other topics. The station is proud of the diversity of its programmes that are produced to reflect the tastes of every type of listener. These include broadcasts on just about every kind of music genre, history, the arts, comedy, business, current affairs, religion, local interests and nostalgia. Programmes change regularly to meet the demands of the station’s audience. Recently a range of topical shows have been added as new presenters have joined the station, while a number of the ‘old hands’ have returned after short seasonal breaks. Among the latest programmes are ‘Plane Talking’ with Mick Bannister, ‘Flashback to the ‘80s’ with Christine Holley, ‘Sports MK’ with Mark Johnston, ‘The Life Doctor’ with James McCafferty and Theresa Kelleher’s ‘Inspired by Jazz’. Several popular shows have returned or been allocated new slots, including ‘The Boat That Sank’, ‘The Best Time of the Day’ with Tom Scudamore and ‘Mined Your Head’ presented by Steve McNay and Chris Parlor. New, information and updates of these shows and other regular programmes can be found at the Secklow Sounds website. Secklow Sounds works in partnership with
20 mkflyers
local organisations including Inter-Action MK who provide facilities for the studio at its headquarters. In return the station offers radio production and presentation training to its user groups. Shows are also presented by students aged from 14 to 16 and the station actively provides work experience for students studying media. Secklow Sounds was the brainchild of station director and founder, Mike Johnson - winner of the 2000 Andrew Cross award for the best programme by a Restricted Services Station. The ethos is to create a friendly, family environment to bring people and communities together. In addition to the regular programme content, presenters interview local interest groups, entertainers, business people, charity organisers and others on-air and attend local events. This station’s role is succinctly summed up by Mike Johnson: “The intention is to bring together people from all backgrounds to produce an unrivalled variety of programmes celebrating the rich diversity of cultures, music, food and traditions that is Milton Keynes, and will include business, health, sports, the arts, faith and non-faith groups. As a community station we will encourage participation from all citizens, defending their interest and reflecting their views. Cultural diversity is at the heart of Secklow Sounds and all ideas can be debated in our programmes, and a multiplicity of views will be fairly presented.”

Garden view
A
s the days become shorter and darker it’s tempting to stay indoors. Often our gardens look a bit depressing at this time of year but they really don’t have to. True most of the leaves have fallen, branches are bare and the majority of flowering species are dormant but with a little planning you can still produce a plot which is a pleasure to look at. It’s this time of year that the evergreens hold centre stage. These bastions of winter are overshadowed by their showier counterparts all year. Now they provide colour and structure. Because it’s winter evergreens are most important next to the house. That way, even when we’re trapped indoors, we can still look out at something beautiful. Don’t just think conifers, there are a host of other evergreens to provide variety. Garrya elliptica is festooned with catkins at this time year and the glossy leaves of a camellia look very pretty against a house, though you need to remember to enrich the soil with humus. I love ivy too. The range of leaf shapes and sizes is enormous and colours vary from yellow-greens through dark, to variegated and even tinged with pink. You can’t beat conifers for structure though and the colours are amazing. I particularly like golden Chamaecyparis lawsoniana and

are extremely ve Thujas, which start Cre rsatile. off green then turn gre ate a patchwork effect with en s, ye llows and orange-r to rust as soon as eds. the first frost hits. And don’t forget holly. For small gardens try Blue Angel, which is selffertile and looks fabulous grown as a standard. When it’s smothered in glossy berries it’s real WOW plant. Just what’s needed in November!
Evergreen Planting Tips The perfect time to plant your evergreens is now! Dig a hole several times larger than either the container the shrub was purchased in, or the dimensions of the roots for a bare-rooted specimen. Dig over the base of the hole and incorporate plenty of humus. If the soil is dense and claggy dig in some grit. Turn out the plant and check that it will be at the same level after planting as it was in the pot. Tease out a few of the stronger roots to encourage them to branch out into their new surroundings. Enrich the soil you’ve removed from the hole with a little compost and some slow release fertiliser. Return the soil around the shrub and firm sown until the correct level is reached. Water thoroughly, stake if required and remember to use special ties which will not restrict growth.

Tips for autumn lawn care
T
he end of the growing season is generally the time when people put away their lawn mower and prepare the garden for winter. However, after the hot dry summer months there some important tasks to be completed.
GreenThumb provide a complete Lawn Treatment Programme throughout the year consisting of weed elimination, moss control and fertiliser applications together with scarification, aeration, disease and pest control treatments to ensure your lawn is amongst the best in your neighbourhood at a cost that is less than doing it yourself. We believe that the more people are aware of a few basic facts the better their lawn will be says Clare from the Milton Keynes branch. With this is mind here are a few seasonal tips which will improve the health of your lawn and get it ready for next year. • Most lawns in the local area are based on a clay sub-surface which tends to be very compacted. Compaction means that rain and nutrients cannot penetrate to the grass roots, resulting in a weakened root system. Over the winter rain water lingers on the surface causing moss to form, whilst in the summer, when the ground is baked solid, rainfall will not absorb effectively. The best treatment for compacted soil is to use a hollow-tine aerator, which takes out plugs of soil, leaving small holes in the lawn that allow the root zone to breathe,
24 mkflyers
improves the uptake of nutrients and reduces lawn compaction. Surface water will also drain away more easily. • Over the summer, whilst the grass is growing vigorously, an accumulation of stems, roots and leaves intermingled with decaying organic matter creates a mat on the surface of the soil. This mat is called thatch and prevents moisture, oxygen and nutrients reaching the roots, where they are needed. It is also an excellent medium for moss to thrive. Scarification is an operation designed to reduce the amount of thatch by a machine with blades and knives which then allows new grass to thrive in the Spring. • Keep mowing your lawn regularly until the grass stops growing. Increase the height of your mower blade, and as always ensure that the blade is sharp. Do not cut your grass any lower than an inch at this time of year. • Clear up fallen leaves regularly. Fallen leaves prevent sunlight reaching the grass which stops the plant producing chlorophyll, leaving the grass a pale yellow instead of green. Leaves also collect water which encourages the dreaded moss to grow underneath. If you would like to know how GreenThumb can help to imp rove your lawn or would just like some advice you can contact Clare and the GreenThumb team by telephone on 01908 850544

ast year Milton Keynes was named as the best place to do business in the UK outside of London, a huge achievement for all those belonging to our business community and also to Milton Keynes as a destination. With the highest number of small business start ups in the UK we are attracting businesses to our city, encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation and with a fantastic new Chamber of Commerce we are earning our reputation for being a business capital in the UK. Whilst we have many small businesses we are also home to many big businesses; Network Rail, Volkswagen, Mercedez Benz instantly spring to mind but what may surprise some people is that Milton Keynes is also home to a Coca Cola Factory. The Coca Cola Factory is based in Northfield, just down from Willen, having opened in 1976 it has seen rapid growth and now employs 230

people and makes a staggering 37million cans of pop a year. I recently had the pleasure of visiting the factory, having visited once before 5 years ago to open a new canning line, and was incredibly impressed by the size, scale and speed of the operation. As 35,000 cans a minute were filled with Diet Dr Pepper and whizzed around the conveyer belt to be packaged up I was in awe of this incredible feat of engineering. Social Responsibility has become an important feature within business and Coca Cola were proud to talk about their recycling and social payback scheme. However, their new education centre which is about to be opened at the Northfield site really caught my eye. To be opened in the new year the education centre is the sixth of its kind that Coca Cola are opening, trying to teach children and young adults aged 12-21 about the manufacturing business. In a non branded environment a fully qualified teacher, who is an employee of Coke’s, will show the children the factory and teach them about how a British based manufacturing firm works. Their other education centres (based as far away as Kilbride) had 60,000 students go through their doors last year and I am extremely pleased that students based locally here in Milton Keynes will also be given the opportunity to benefit first hand from this fantastic opportunity.
Business is the backbone of our com munity and we are privileged to live in a city that plays host to som e truly remarkable organisations. As ever, if I can help you in anyway please feel free to contact me on 01908 686830

Small businesses will lead the way in 2013, says company whose tenants already employ 1000 people
M
Milton Keynes will boom in 2013, says the town’s largest serviced business premises provider, as the number of people employed in its units tops 1000 at the close of 2012.
Bucks Biz, with over 400,000 square feet of space and 150 tenants in Bletchley and Denbigh, says it is already planning more units to cope with the expected growth in demand and bringing forward plans to develop extra space at the huge Interchange House in Howard Way. “Our units currently provide work for around a thousand people and we have seen that figure rise steadily,” said Dominic Muscat, a director of the company that owns the business. “As Milton Keynes business booms, led by small businesses, we are already identifying potential new units that can be converted to provide the premises needed for small companies to thrive without hassle.”
Bucks Biz, with units all over Milton Keynes, is renowned for straight talking and dealing; not hiding costs and not charging for many of the little things that keep businesses ticking, but which can be annoying to the point of distraction. “We really believe that if our customers are happy, then they’ll be free to get on with their businesses, which in turn will expand,” added Dominic.

Review for M Champagne & Cocktail Lounge by Kelly Thompson
M
o & wife Michelle who run M Champagne & Cocktail Lounge gave me the pleasure of taking part in a Cocktail Master Class & what a class it was!
On entry to this very sophisticated up market trending location based in The Hub Milton Keynes I was greeted by a warm clean & vibrant feel from the place, everything from lighting to the general greeting from Mark the barman who made me very welcome & offered me a glass of bubbly while I waited for my class to begin. Alan the bar manager then taught me all about making Mojotos & Cosmopolitans, the class teaches you all about the history of the drinks & how they became so famous from the ingredient’s used. Alan showed me how to make the cocktails I then had to make them myself & of course after making these very good looking presentable drinks you get to drink them all.
I had such a laugh with the team they were all fantastic in their own quirky ways & would definitely recommend anyone wishing to take part in this fantastic master class to give it a go. The Hub, 25 Mortimer Square, Central Milton Keynes MK9 2FB

What on earth is Korfball?
M
ilton Keynes has a thriving korfball community, but most people won’t have a clue what it is!
Korfball is a bit like netball and bit like basketball - but better!* It’s played in mixed sex teams of 4 men and 4 women on a court similar sized to basketball. Korfball is played indoors during the winter and outdoors during the summer. The aim of the game is to work with your team-mates to get the ball through the hoop (Korf) Men can only mark men and women can only mark women and unlike netball, you can’t shoot if your defender is within touching distance of you – so you need to move quick! So now you know what korfball is, why not come down and give it a go? MK Lakers Korfball club are always looking for new and enthusiastic members, we train twice a week on a Monday and Wednesday and play league matches on a Sunday. It’s a superb way to get fit and meet lots of new people. As a newbie, you get your first two sessions for FREE and the next two pay as you go - after that, you can decide to join us for only £20 per month. Less than most gym fees and much more fun and sociable! *in our opinion!

Finest quality firewood & fuel at affordable prices
All of our logs are from sustainable sources
Van Level Loads
from £160
Bulk Firewood Bags
from £57
Barrow Bags
from £20
Kindling
from £4
Coal
from £8.15
Our firewood is sold and delivered in either Bulk Bags (90x90x90cm), Barrow bags (46x46x87cm) or Van level load (loose). The “Barrow Bag” has been designed for many jobs. It is much larger than the “Net Bags” and yet smaller than the 90x90x90 “Bulk bag” but, has the strength of a 1 ton Bulk bag, this making it very strong and durable so it can be reused many times. With this being smaller than a Bulk bag, the bulk bags need a folk lift to move once filled. The Barrow Bag can be moved by 1 man by hand. Hardwood consists of: Ash, Elm, Oak, Plane, Thorn, Acacia, Cherry, Maple, Sycamore, Beech Softwood consits of: Chestnut, Pine, Lime, Alder, Fir, Larch All of the logs that we sell are from sustainable sources harvested from our Tree Surgery operations throughtout Milton Keynes, Bedford, Northampton, Leighton Buzzard, Aylesbury, Oxford, Banbury, Stevenage, Hemel Hempstead, St Albans, London and surrounding areas. Burning wood as a fuel to warm our homes, heat our water and to cook with is a wonderfully natural way of recycling what could otherwise become just another waste product from industry.
You can order and pay online at www.firewoodfuel.co.uk
