A CLEAN CHIMNEY IS A SAFE CHIMNEY

Welcome Hi everyone, Autumn has arrived and as I write the rain is pouring down outside. I’ve already been tempted to put the heating on a couple of times, it looks like it’s time to rake out the wellies and winter woolies again.

I know it’s definitely Autumn because all the popular TV programmes are back! Strictly is here and The Great British Bake Off has turned me into a domestic goddess (I try!) I’ve been inspired this year, especially since Ugne added Amarula to her crème brûlée. I’ve been experimenting and baking like crazy. I’ve been trying to find as many ways as possible to feed this years crop of plums to my family. I may have to learn how to make plum wine because my freezer is still full from last years batch. Luckily my in-laws are big fans, and they are now used to the fact that if they come to dinner, whatever they get for dessert, it will have plums in it somewhere.

Also this month the NHS launch their Stoptober campaign for those who would like to give smoking a break or give up completely.

Apparently, if you can give it up for 28 days you are five times more likely to give it up for good.

I’m not a smoker but I do know how difficult it can be to change habits and adopt new ones, especially when you rather enjoy the old ones but you know they’re not good for you. But one month passes in a flash, in fact as far as I’m concerned the whole summer just passed in a flash. Good luck if you are giving it a go.

Until next time, have a great month!

Leaf Litter

by Pippa Greenwood

Are you surrounded, engulfed and swamped with huge quantities of fallen leaves?

Whether they come from trees in your own garden or from a neighbour, the deluge of leaves that falls in autumn is often enough to get level headed, tree-loving gardeners eyeing up chainsaws!

6

At this time of year most of us are feeling as if we are being buried alive by falling leaves.

Yes, the vast majority of leaves that are dropping from our own and our neighbours’ trees are pretty enough, and for a while their bright reds, yellows and oranges look stunning both on and off the tree. The problem is that it seems as if there is a virtually endless supply of them and after that initial flurry of pretty colour, the positive feeling soon starts to diminish.

Leaves that are allowed to build up in your garden can cause problems - on the lawn they smother the turf grasses, often causing patches of die back, largely due to lack of light and oxygen. If the crowns of the less tough herbaceous perennials or alpines are covered in a soggy blanket of leaves, they too start to deteriorate. So, like it or not, you need to do something - and the sooner you get started the better!

A spring-tined rake is perfect for raking leaves off the lawn, and can even work quite well on a gravel drive (provided you don’t rake too deeply and end up ploughing up the stones too!). If you have a lot of lawn or a lot of leaves (or worse still, a big lawn and lots of leaves too) then the easiest way to deal with them is to mow the lawn. Provided you keep the hopper or grasscollector on the mower, when you empty it out you’ll have a fantastic mix of grass clippings and chopped leaves. On beds and borders you’ll usually end up hand picking, or if time and energy is in short supply you could invest in a leaf vacuum or a leaf blower (and this can, of course, be used on most drives and paths, and lawns too).

Great, so you spend a lot of time and effort collecting up all these leaves. Then what? Don’t take them to the tip or make a bonfire: make leaf mould.

It is as easy as anything and makes a fantastic soil mulch or conditioner…for free!

Leaves are best rotted down on their own (they take longer to decompose than the rest of the stuff in your compost heap and need less air and warmth), so make yourself a simple and inexpensive leaf mould bin.

Just drive four stakes into the

ground to make the corners of a square, and then attach chicken mesh around the outside to make a cage. Stack the leaves in, tread or firm them, add some water if they are dry, then more water if the weather remains dry…and then leave them be. If you can chop larger or tougher leaves (like horse chestnut) up first, they’ll rot down much faster - either mow them with the lawnmower or ‘chop’ them with a sharp spade. It is worth avoiding very spiky leaves (the spines seem to withstand rotting and get you later!), and any that are very leathery and tough - mainly evergreens such as holly, laurel and camellia, or those from sycamore and plane.

If you want to speed the process up you can add a leaf mould activator, which is available from garden centres.

If space, time or money is short then you can also make leaf mould in a bin liner or other bag. Choose a good quality bin liner - not a really thin one - and cram it full of leaves, again adding water and/or activator if you wish. Then stab a few holes in the bag with a garden fork, loosely fold over the top and weigh it down with a brick.

Bin liners full of leaves can be hidden anywhere that you have the space - perhaps behind the shed, garage or greenhouse.

If you don’t like the idea of black plastic, then there are now some lovely jute mesh bags which can be crammed full of leaves and act as a perfect container whilst the leaf mould is forming, but will eventually rot down and add to the useful material you produce. You can see these on my website www. pippagreenwood.com/products.

Whichever method you use you should have a useable product in 12-18 months, but leave it a bit longer and it will be even better!

Busy Bee Landscapes Hello and good day to all. This is my first advert in The Village Directory and I have kindly been given the opportunity by Debbie, the magazine Editor, to tell you all a little bit about myself here at Busy Bees.

My name is Jeff Guest and I am Busy Bee Landscapes.

I have recently moved to New Romney from the Croydon area with my wife and five children. It has only been six weeks since the move and we are all loving the change in lifestyle that it has given us.

Most of my work at present is predominantly in the Shirley and surrounding areas of Surrey but I’m hoping to extend this to the Kent area. I have been trading for just over 12 years and in that time have built up a very good client base and reputation. I will continue to work in Surrey due to the high demand but would love to eventually have 50% or more of my work closer to where I live. The 4-5 hours a day travelling, over time, would send me more round the bend than I already am.

10

I pride myself in giving all my customers the quality of service they deserve, so if you ever need help with any of the following please give me a call. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Westwinds Boarding Cattery

Holiday oliday by the SeaA Cats by Holiday by the theSea Seafor forCats Cats AAfor Holiday by the Sea for Cats David and Mandy are the new owners of Westwinds, which originally opened in 1990, since taking over in October 2014.

The Cattery is set in a quiet and secluded garden overlooking Romney Marsh at Lydd-on-Sea. Westwinds has been known for its caring nature and high standards ensuring your pet’s welfare and comfort comes first and they intend this to continue. They quickly realised that a complete rebuild was essential for the future of the Cattery and applied for and received full planning permission on 28th August 2015.

Work has already started on phase 1, a new block of 9 double chalets (pictured on the left), and this should be completed and ready for Christmas.

They intend to remain open during this transition process, with phase 2 scheduled for completion by spring 2016, giving them a total of 18 double chalets and 2 large family chalets.

12

They have decided to use a company called Peticular Pens, the chosen provider of all new buildings for the RSPCA, who specialise in bespoke UPVc catteries. Each chalet will have an ”A” rated sleeping area, with individual thermostatically controlled heating and lighting. The picture on the right shows the recently completed refubishment of the Cattery reception area which customers have already told them looks modern and professional.

Both David and Mandy have owned cats themselves for over 25 years, which has allowed them to gain a wealth of experience and knowledge in all aspects of cat care and health. This is helped by having a good working relationship with their local vets, who are always at hand if needed. Also as Westwinds is a small Cattery and completely family run, they can ensure that all hygiene

standards are met and adhered to. They are also able to give individual attention to your cat(s) during their stay with them.

David and Mandy welcome visits from existing and new customers. Please see their website for more information:

It’s now easier to make a Lasting Power of Attorney As part of our regular series on legal matters, Kerry Carter, of Tenterden law firm Pengelly and Rylands, looks at recent changes to making Lasting Powers of Attorney.

If you worry about what would happen if you became unable to handle your own affairs, a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) could be the answer and as, since 1st July, making and registering an LPA is now easier than ever, it makes sense to do it now.

There are two types of LPA available, one which deals with ‘Property & Financial Affairs’ and one which deals with ‘Health & Welfare’.

A Property & Financial Affairs LPA allows you to appoint someone you trust as your Attorney, to help you with your financial affairs, including managing your bank accounts, paying bills, managing investments, claiming benefits and buying or selling your house. This LPA can be used while you still have mental capacity, or you can decide it can only be used if you have lost mental capacity. Most people choose to register the LPA as soon as it is made but, while you still have mental capacity, your Attorney can only act with your consent.

14

Under a ‘Health & Welfare’ LPA your Attorney can make decisions on your behalf about the health care and medical treatment you receive, including life sustaining treatment, where you live and dayto-day matters, such as your diet and daily routine.

A Health & Welfare LPA can only be used once you have lost mental capacity and can no longer express a decision yourself.

Whoever you choose to appoint as your Attorneys, or Replacement Attorneys, must always act in your best interests, so should be people you trust and know well. Common choices include your husband or wife, or partner, son or daughter, or your best friend. Attorneys must be at least eighteen years old and have mental capacity to make decisions.

As a safeguard to you, you must choose a Certificate Provider, to confirm that you knowwhat you are doing and that nobody is forcing you to make it.

The Certificate Provider should be either someone who has known you personally for at least two years, such as a friend, neighbour or colleague (it cannot be a family member), or someone with a relevant professional skill, such as your GP, a healthcare professional or a solicitor.

In addition you can, if you wish, choose people to be notified of the registration, in case they have any worries or concerns, for example, that there was any pressure or fraud in making it.

Kerry Carter–Chartered Legal Executive LPAs can only be used once they are registered with the Office of the Public Guardian. This currently takes about eight weeks and the OPG, at present, charge a fee of £110 to register each LPA. If you lose capacity without an LPA in place, an application must be made to the Court of Protection for a Deputy to be appointed to look after your affairs. This can be a lengthy and costly process.

Our firm can help you through the process of making an LPA, and we can do as much or as little as you wish. I recommend making an LPA whilst you are fit and healthy, as it will give you the peace of mind of knowing that people you have chosen and trust will be able to make decisions on your behalf, if the need ever arose. If you would like to discuss this please contact me, Kerry Carter, or my colleague, Laura Hails, on 01580 762248.

“Wouldn’t be without it” Faye and David Prigmore live in Pluckley near Ashford in Kent They both work as couriers which gives them the flexibility to spend time with their three daughters.

“Two of them have horses and compete in eventing, so I help out as their groom,” says Faye.

“Everything from making the tea to washing the horses down, walking the courses, moving fence jumps and helping with the physio.” It may not be glamourous, but Faye enjoys it! And their other daughter is also very active as a keen netball player.

“We used to have lots of animals as well – dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens – but not at the moment,” says Faye. “Although a dog would be nice again when the time is right.”

Boiler breakdown The couple decided to get a water softener after years of putting up with very hard water and excess limescale. Faye explains: “The water here is very hard and very limey. We used to buy small tablets to put in our water to help but it was getting very expensive. We decided getting a water softener would be better and should end up paying for itself.”

After a huge build-up of limescale – half a tank full – led to the demise of their boiler, and problems in their washing machine and dishwasher, the couple made the decision to get a Harvey Water Softener.

And immediately saw the benefits.

we still get a very good lather,” says Faye. “And you can see the difference too. We have shiny taps now and the glass on the shower door is much clearer.

Before you would run your hand down the shower door and feel the limescale - it was so bad.”

The couple has noticed the water tastes slightly different, which is fine, and cleaning takes a lot less time as there is a lot less limescale! David adds: “The water also feels different. When I wash my face with soap and rinse it with fresh water afterwards my face still feels soft.”

User-friendly and cost-effective They also find the Harvey Water Softener unit user-friendly and cost-effective.

Salt is necessary to keep a water softener running and the water soft. Harvey Water Softeners use salt blocks which are designed to be compact and easy to store and replace. “Six blocks cost around £16,” says David, “and we find two big blocks last us a month to six weeks.”

Recommended Both Faye and David have recommended getting a water softener to family and friends. They have had their Harvey Water Softener for a year now and haven’t looked back.

“We wouldn’t be without it now,” says Faye. “We have definitely seen the benefits and feel it has paid for itself.”

The Harvey water softener fits neatly under a kitchen sink

See and feel the difference “We don’t use as much washing powder, washing-up liquid or shampoo as we did, and yet

What are the different styles of shutters?

There are three types of shutters: plantation, solid and cafĂŠ style.

Most people go for the plantation style, which have slats (also known as louvers) that rotate open and closed to control light levels.

Solid shutters are ideal for those wanting to create a more traditional look, and are designed to be folded back during the day and closed at night.

18

Extremely ( !

shutters can be made to ' any size or shape

Shutters provide a chic and stylish alternative to blinds and curtains and are a cost-effective way to completely update the look and feel of a room. They are more hygienic too as they simply wipe clean and don't absorb the dust, unlike curtains or blinds.

Shutters offer you a great deal of flexibility, for instance you can have different slat sizes, different colours and different panel designs.

You also have more control over how much light enters the room. With blinds, there's relatively little light control flexibility.

Shutters can also save you valuable pennies as they provide further insulation, which is particularly appealing in these cash strapped times.

And finally, shutters last longer and are more durable.

CafĂŠ style shutters are popular in restaurants and cafes, hence the name. With this style, the shutters normally cover just the bottom half of the window.

Shutters can help retain heat – a bonus for household bills

With tier-on-tier shutters, there are two sets of shutters, one above the other. You can open each set individually, which gives you more flexibility and more light control. These are ideal if you have larger bay windows.

Which styles would suit which types of windows?

Solid shutters are mainly used in Victorian and older style properties. They keep out more light and offer the ultimate privacy. This type of shutter is perfect in a room with a simple and minimal dĂŠcor, and works particularly well in country cottages where they look quaint folded back during the day.

Solid shutters with a solid lower half but with movable slats on top work fabulously on French doors, giving a lovely Continental feel that will certainly remind you of your summer holiday.

With the plantation shutters, you can really get creative with the design, the colour and the rods, and as such these types of shutters suit most spaces.

Can shutters still be fitted in awkward spaces?

Shutters are perfect for awkward places!

There are very few spaces that can't accommodate shutters Shutters can help retain heat, a bonus for household bills.>> For further information advice on awnings and accessories please contact JLS Blinds & Shutters on 01233 226570 Shutters can help retain heat – a bonus for household bills

If you reside in the Romney Marsh area, you may well have noticed and admired some of the communal, artistic projects , on walls of buildings around New Romney. We refer to the many murals, 90 in all, bedecking what were blank walls in and around the High Street.

We have Briony Kapoor to thank for these attractions, together with the various statues dotted about the same area.

Now, it is Briony, that Channel Radio have to thank, for their first dedicated classical music show – a programme which Briony will both present, and one she will also introduce other hosts to from time-to-time.

Broadcast at 3pm every Sunday, it follows Arts Hour presented by Clive looker. Clive’s lively mix of short stories, radio plays, poetry and music is proving popular with listeners. Even though Clive also compiles and edits, Arts Hour he has still found time to write and publish a hilarious novel concerning a rogue Parish Council. Go to amazon.com and type ‘Skulduggery in Stepington Marsh’ into the search box, for the first three chapters free of charge. It’s well worth a read.

For other exciting programmes, go to www.channelradio.co.uk and click on ‘schedule’ to see just what you are missing.

Cake and Bake Halloween Macaroons For the ultimate Halloween sweet treat why not have a go at making a batch of French Macaroons?

Ingredients: • 230g icing sugar, sifted

22

• 75g ground almonds • 2 large egg whites • 50g caster sugar • Orange and black food colouring gel • 55g unsalted butter, softened • � tsp vanilla extract

Makes 16 Ready in 1 hour, plus cooling

TIP The filled macaroons will keep in an airtight box in the fridge for 2-3 days. Stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.

1. Place half the icing sugar and all the ground almonds in a food processor and process for 30 seconds, or until fine and powdery.

Sift the mixture into a mixing bowl, discarding any tiny pieces of almonds left in the sieve. Set aside.

2. Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until softly peaking. Gradually whisk in the caster sugar, to make a firm and glossy meringue.

Whisk in enough of the orange food colouring gel to colour the meringue deep orange.

3. Fold one third of the icing sugar mixture into the meringue using a spatula. Repeat with another third of the mixture. Finally add the last third and continue to cut and fold the mixture until it forms a shiny and thick batter that falls in a slow ribbon when the spatula is lifted.

4. Line 2 large baking sheets with baking paper. Spoon the mixture into a large piping bag fitted with a 1cm plain piping nozzle. Pipe 32 discs of the mixture onto the baking sheets, each with a diameter of 3cm. Lift the nozzle at the top of half the piped discs to create a small point. Leave for 30 minutes to allow the macaroons to dry and form a slight crust. Preheat the oven to 160°C / Fan 140°C / Gas Mark 3.

5. Bake, one sheet at a time for 10-15 minutes, or until the macaroons have a crisp shell and the frilly bases don’t stick when gently lifted from the paper. Leave on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

6. To decorate, dip the tip of a fine paintbrush into the black food colouring gel and paint pumpkin faces on the 16 pointed macaroons.

7. To decorate, dip the tip of a fine paintbrush into the black food colouring gel and paint pumpkin faces on the 16 pointed macaroons.

Beauty Tresses that Impress

by Kate Duggan www.kateduggan.co.uk Whether long, short or in-between, afro, curly, wavy or straight, our hair is one of the first things people notice about us. The right style can detract from imperfections, and tells the world a little something about our personality. It can make us more self-assured; more confident in the workplace and social situations. And, of course, it’s not just about the cut; having the right tools in your arsenal at home can make all the difference.

30

I have a confession – until recently I didn’t own a hairbrush. I just used my daughter’s, which is shaped like Hello Kitty, but does the job. Thankfully, now I am the proud owner of a Wet Brush, the US’s bestselling hairbrush, which detangles wet or dry hair like a dream.

My daughter is also a fan, as it doesn’t pull as much, which is making mornings rather more pleasant. The Wet Brush costs £11.99 from www.cultbeauty.co.uk.

If you only make one change to your haircare regime, swap to a gentler, more natural shampoo. Most high street shampoos contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which can strip your hair of essential oils, leaving it limp and lifeless. A gentler alternative is Green People Quinoa & Artichoke Shampoo and Conditioner

(£9.95 each), which are designed to nourish and protect damaged hair. The quinoa and artichoke leaf work together to condition, minimise frizz, strengthen and protect from UV radiation.

Curly and coily haired women have cause to celebrate, with the release of Aveda Be Curly Co-Wash, £17.50, which cleanses hair, while preserving moisture and minimising frizz. The key ingredients are organic babassu oil and baobab oil.

Subrina Kidd, Aveda UK’s Textured Hair Specialist, explains, “Regular cleansing shampoos can often leave hair looking and feeling dry and brittle – this lowlather, sulfate-free formula will refresh and revive the hair texture or curl pattern without removing necessary moisture. To avoid tangling, sub-divide the hair into four sections, massage the Co-Wash into each section, comb through and then rinse thoroughly.”

Looking for a salon-style deep conditioning treatment? Try Philip Kingsley Geranium & Neroli Elasticizer, £31.50, a pre-shampoo conditioning treatment that contains neroli, geranium, lavender, rose and orange oils. The Elasticizer has been around for a few years now, and has won numerous awards and accolades. This new version looks set to be just as successful, as it leaves hair soft, bouncy and easier to style. While you can just apply it a few minutes before showering, for best results lather it on before bed. It may seem pricey, but a little goes a long way, so you’ll get a fair few weekly treatments from each jar.

Lot of brands have limited edition products out for breast cancer awareness at the moment. One of our favourites is Origins Pink Ribbon Make A Difference Rejuvenating Hand Treatment, £19.50. It’s really rich, with extracts of Rose of Jericho and meadowfoam seed oil, so ideal for dry, dehydrated hands. What’s more, £5 from each sale will be donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

1piece Rubber Roofing System 20 Year Membrane Guarantee 50 Year Life Expectancy No Seams No Naked Flame Installation Highly Durable Superior Flexibility

Editor’s Comment: I can highly recommend this type of roof covering.

We had our kitchen roof covered with EDPM toward the end of last year, following years of annoying hard to fix leaks, we are now bone dry.

The main selling point for us was that it consisted of just one massive sheet of rubber, there would be no joins. It was also flexible, long lasting and the smooth surface remains clear of moss. It looks good too! We researched the product before looking for a specialist roofer, it’s still quite new so finding the roofer was the hard part. Now Camani Builders have joined The Village Directory so there’s one at our fingertips ~ Debbie
