Hello Readers

O

ne more month and it will be Christmas! As we all get back to some sort of normality, I hope that by the time we get into the Festive Season, we will be able to join family and friends we have missed.

This month we have some School Christmas Fair adverts in this issue, which is a sign of progress! But if your organisation can hold one in December, remember to send in the details.

With any luck, some of you may be thinking of getting away, so the two articles on Staycations might give you a few ideas. They may only be in this country, so no problem with traffic light travel, but with luck, the fuel crisi will be over in time!

Back to this month, I hope you all have a safe and enjoyable firework night. Please remember to check for sleepy hedgehogs in any bonfire bases, before lighting them.

Check all your pets are somewhere safe, and let the neighbours know about yourAdvertiser’s party, so Rates Guide they can check their pets as well. If in doubt, contact your vet for advice about nervous animals.

Are you, like us, still providing food and water for birds and other creatures? We enjoy watching the different families flutter round.

We also have some young foxes visiting our garden during the day, as well as at night. I think they are the offspring of our old fox, no longer seen, sadly.

(Centre 2 page spread)

Advert copy can be emailed to: karen@berrylandcompanion.com If your ad is not available in an electronic format then we can produce it for you, from your own hard copy text, normally for a fixed price of just £10, although this may be higher if you have a particularly complex advert!

Format & Design

Contact Us:

It is an A5 size booklet, stapled with colour plus black and white printed on quality paper.

The Companion will be printed on 115gsm gloss paper giving it a very high quality feel.

It will have ‘longevity’ and because of it’s size, content, look and feel it will be kept by the majority of households until the next issue arrives, thereby giving advertisers ‘immdiacy’ of access’ when their services are required.

Orphan Train – Christina Baker Kline Foster child Molly steals a book from the local library. As retribution, she’s told to help an elderly lady clean out her loft. While they sort through her childhood belongings, Vivian reveals the stories behind them. As one of 250,000 destitute children sent from New York to rural states, Vivian was at the mercy of strangers, some of whom would see her as little more than free labour. A hauntingly evocative novel about a little-known practice, Orphan Train is the perfect book to curl up with on a cold winter’s night. ruoloC lluF

Hidden Child – Louise Fein Eleanor seems to have it all, including a devoted, successful husband – Edward – and a delightful four-year-old daughter – Mabel. But when Mabel starts having seizures, life takes a drastic turn. For Edward is a passionate advocate of the eugenics movement and is pushing for the forced sterilisation of those the movement sees as defective – people like Mabel.

How far will the family go to keep their secrets hidden?

And the Mountains Echoed – Khalid Hosseini This multi-layered story starts in 1950s Afghanistan when a beloved sister, Pari, is sold into a ‘better life’. Over the years, numerous characters reveal their tales, from the girl’s brother, Abdullah, and their stepmother to a seemingly unconnected expat. While Pari forgets her past, she cannot escape the feeling that something is missing. And The Mountains Echoed reads like a series of connected short stories, all of which are beautifully written, tender and rich in detail.

All The Light We Cannot See – Anthony Doerr Marie-Laure huddles in a Saint-Malo house as WWII bombs rain down around her. Blind, alone, with just a small stone to protect her. A few streets away, a German boy – Werner – works alongside his comrades as they make a last stand against the Americans. The lyrical writing of All The Light We Cannot See makes you want to savour every page. The characters make you want to race from one page to the next. Stunning.

Pony – R. J. Palacio The author of Wonder is back. This time, the book is set in 1860s America.

When Silas’s father is abducted by outlaws, Silas sets out to find him. He’s accompanied by a pony belonging to one of the outlaws and his friend Mittenwool, who’s a ghost. Twists and turns abound. Part adventure, part Wild West coming of age, Pony has been marketed as a children’s book, but will no doubt be enjoyed by a wide range of readers.

A Net for Small Fishes – Lucy Jago Set in the early 1600s, A Net for Small Fishes is based on the true story of Frances Howard and Anne Turner. Here, Frances has wealth and beauty, but is married to an abusive husband and is deeply unhappy. Anne has talent and charm, but little power. The pair form an unlikely friendship.

But their attempt to break away from conventions and seek some small happiness could lead to their downfall.

Luxe doesn’t have to mean eye-wateringly expensive.

Here’s how to find a few beauty bargains this winter…

Go for own-brand Supermarkets and fashion brands often have their own beauty ranges. Aldi’s Lacura range (www.aldi.co.uk) has a legion of loyal fans and you can pick up an eye palette for just £5.99.

And H&M’s nail polishes are amongst the best I’ve tried, and an absolute bargain at just £3.99.

My nails stayed chip-free for weeks.

Scour discount sites Check out stores like TK Maxx and B&M. You’ll often find heavily discounted skincare, cosmetics, electricals and toiletries from top brands. A quick search on www.tkmaxx.com uncovered a Calvin Klein perfume at 70% off, a Rodial moisturiser at 76% off and an Eve Lom gift set at 49% off.

Try something new We often stick to products we know, but it’s worth trying cheaper brands now and then.

Inecto, for example, gets great reviews. All products are vegan, made in the UK and up to 98% natural. Plus, prices start at under £2.

Try the Argan range for super-shiny hair. A fullsize bottle of shampoo is just £1.49. Find your nearest stockist at www.inecto.com.

Consider memberships Memberships like those offered by Beauty Pie give you the chance to buy luxury products at a fraction of the price. Beauty Pie’s memberships start from £5 a month.

You can then purchase products ranging from moisturisers (priced from £8.48) to fragrance (priced from £18.67). They’re created in some of the world’s top labs but are a heck of a lot cheaper than you could buy them for in store.

I took out a £10-a-month plan (three-month minimum) and saved more than £150 in my first month. My favourite product so far is the Plantastic Apricot Butter Cleansing Balm, which leaves skin feeling incredibly soft and hydrated.

At the time of publishing, BEAUTYPIE10 will get you an extra £10 off at www.beautypie.com.

Buy in bulk Products usually come down in price as they go up in volume. So, if you’re treating yourself to a favourite product, it usually pays to buy the biggest size you can afford. For example, a 400ml bottle of Faith in Nature’s Grapefruit & Orange Shampoo is £5.79 (£14.48 a litre), but you can get a 5 litre bottle from Amazon for £35 (£7 a litre). Don’t want to use the same product for a whole year? Look out for refill shops where you take your own container to stock up on food and toiletries, or consider sharing products (and costs) with friends and family.

Sign up for sales Sign up for Money Saving Expert’s newsletter to find out when your favourite shops’ sales start. It’s also worth checking whether you can get a discount as a reward for signing up to brands’ own newsletters.

And check sites like www.vouchercodes.co.uk before you buy anything at full price.

When you buy something and you want your money back, it’s key to know your rights. Your legal position depends not just on how you bought a product and what, if anything, is wrong with it. It also depends on how you paid for it.

Faulty, false or fake You have the legal right to a refund in three cases: the item is faulty, the item isn’t as described, or the item doesn’t do something the seller said it would. In each case you have the right to a full refund and you don’t have to accept a credit note or voucher.

There’s no time limit as such for exercising the legal refund right. However, the more time passes, the less scope you have for getting a refund when something breaks. It becomes a question of whether you should reasonably have expected it to last as long.

Changed your mind?

For goods that don’t meet first three rules return rights are dependent on the seller’s policy. They may offer a refund or a credit note, and they may impose a time limit.

If you bought something online, by mail or over the phone, you have an extra ‘distance selling’ right.

With such purchases you have the right to change your mind and cancel your purchase without a reason, even if the products are not faulty.

This right has three time limits. You have 14 days after receiving the goods to tell the seller

66

you want the refund. You then have 14 days to return the goods, at your own expense. The seller than has 14 days to refund you.

Card cover If you use a card, the card provider may also be liable. For example, the ‘Section 75’ rule applies if you make a purchase between £100 and £30,000 and use a credit card to pay any or all of the cost. The rule applies even if you pay just £1 on the credit card and the balance by cash or debit card.

Section 75 simply means your card provider has the same legal responsibility as the seller.

This can mean issuing refunds for faulty goods, but also making things right if the seller doesn’t deliver the goods at all.

Chargeback If you used a debit card or the purchase cost was less than £100, you can use an alternative claiming method called chargeback. This involves your card provider claiming the money back from the seller’s bank.

Chargeback isn’t a legal right but rather a scheme operated by most major card providers.

The rules are a bit tighter than Section 75.

You’ve normally got 120 days after discovering a problem to make a claim. Another big difference is that you must have tried and failed to get a refund from the seller before you can make a chargeback claim. Unlike with Section 75, you can only get back the money you actually spent on the card, not necessarily the entire purchase price.

The food we see in late autumn tends to match the colours of foliage, with oranges, reds and the darkest green very common, and bright spring greens now only on the shelves when imported. These late season fruits and vegetables are just as delicious as the options for spring and typically store for longer.

Apples It’s no surprise apples are one of the world’s most popular fruits. They’re healthy, widely available and delicious both baked and raw. Cox, Red Pippin, Golden Delicious and Empire are all common in-season varieties to look out for in November. These are all eating apples of course, and cooking needs a firmer, more sour fruit such as Granny Smiths.

Brussel Sprouts Another Christmas staple, sprouts have a reputation of being strong and bitter tasting. However, over the years, British farmers have modified their crops to ensure most varieties they grow are sweeter and milder and many people love them. For a different take on serving them, peel the leaves off them (it’ll take a while) and briefly deep-fry them, then serve with lemon and salt. Delicious!

Swede The perfect vegetable for our climate, preferring cold and moist winters. The harvested vegetable keeps really well in a cool, dark place so makes a useful store cupboard standby. Swede is a delicious side vegetable when cooked until soft and mashed with butter or cheese. For extra taste, try frying a bit of chopped onion until soft, then mixing with the mashed swede.

Satsumas and Tangerines Bright citrus fruits bring fresh colour to the table in winter and satsumas and tangerines are at their seasonal peak in November and into December.

Chard Also known as Swiss chard, and available in traffic-light options of red, orange or green, chard plants produce a constant supply of fresh leaves that can be cut off as needed. It’s more frost-tolerant than spinach, and the leaves are less tender, but otherwise can be used in similar recipes for extra flavour and nutrition.

Parsnips There’s a reason we associate parsnips with Christmas dinner – it’s prime season for them. Using parsnips instead of potatoes makes mash a little less stodgy and adds a more complex flavour. But more often they’ll be roasted until the flesh starts to caramelise and served with any roast dinner.

Serves: 4 Preparation time: 15 minutes Marinate: 2-3 hours or overnight Cooking time: 65 minutes Ingredients • 500g beef fillet (one piece) • 1 tbsp oil, for searing Marinade • 1 tsp ground cumin • 1 tbsp oil • 2 garlic cloves, crushed

Roast Beef Fillet with Roasted Garlic, Tomato and Herb Sauce 1. Mix all the marinade ingredients together and rub all over the fillet. Leave to marinate for 2-3 hours or overnight.

2. Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas mark 4.

3. Slice off the top quarter of the garlic bulb. Put the bulb on a piece of foil, drizzle over a little oil and season. Wrap up in the foil and roast for 40 minutes. Cool slightly then squeeze out the garlic bulb into a food processor.

4. For the sauce, heat the oil and sauté the shallot, tomatoes, anchovy fillets with the caster sugar and vinegar. Cook for 5 minutes. Add to the food processor with the remaining sauce ingredients except the herbs and blend to form a thick sauce. Add a little water, if needed, to thin the sauce slightly. Place in a pan and add the parsley.

A wonderful sweet and salty dessert that is simple to prepare.

Accompany the pears with yoghurt and toasted oats or granola Serves: 4 Preparation time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 10 minutes Ingredients • 2 ripe pears, halved and cored • 30g butter or dairy-free spread • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup • 1 tsp white miso paste • 240g Greek yoghurt, to serve • 120g toasted oats or granola

1. Heat a frying pan big enough to fit all the pears placed cut side down. Melt the butter, honey (or maple syrup) and miso in the frying pan and add the pears. On a low-medium heat, cook for about 10 minutes (depending on pear ripeness) until almost tender. Be careful not to burn the pears – low slow heat is good.

You may find putting a lid on the pan speeds this step up.

2. When the pears are tender, if they are not caramelised enough underneath turn the heat up a little for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and slice thickly, if wished.

3. Serve the cooked pears with yoghurt and granola or oats.

Firework Phobia? Here’s how to help your pet!

I

f your pet already has a phobia, or if you are hoping to avoid a phobia developing, we have some tips that can help relieve your pet from stress during firework Season.

1) Make your pets’ environment more comfortable: Close the curtains and put the radio or TV on! These simple steps can help reduce the impact of the noise and lights outside. If your pet has a favourite bed or place to go make sure this is accessible. Provide a homemade den, spray the den with calming sprays which can enhance the feeling of wellbeing. These sprays can mimic natural calming pheromones given off by a dog and cat or contain valerian plant extracts that are known for its calming abilities. Valerian based calming sprays can be used for cats dogs and smaller animals like Guinea pigs and rabbits.

2) Body language: Our pets are sensitive to our body language and tone of voice, so be mindful of your behaviour, keep calm and talk in normal tones. Some animals pace or hide as coping mechanisms. If you are overly stressed, annoyed or overly compensating with reassuring tones, this could reinforce an idea to them that there is something to worry about. Reward behaviours you are happy with (such as calm and relaxed body language).

routine for the morning. Spooked animals may run off so we would advise making sure they have collars on and are microchipped with up to date details so you will be reunited quickly should this happen.

5) Don’t forget outdoor pets! If you have pets that live outside such as rabbits or Guinea pigs, be aware that they don’t always show outward signs of stress. They may show more subtle signs such as teeth grinding, hiding or they may stop eating. Please do what you can to minimise their stress too! Valerian calming sprays on their bedding (available from your vets) providing them with more bedding to hide and covering the hutch at night will all help!

If you would like free professional advice as to which treatment is best for your pet, please contact us at the Aspen Veterinary Surgery on 0208 399 6437 or visit our website www.aspenvets.co.uk

3) Anti-anxiety drugs or Natural herbal remedies: (available from veterinary pharmacies) may be beneficial. Natural remedies can be started a week or so before the planned event and given during the event.

Stronger sedative anti-anxiety drugs will require a health check by your vet (before they can be dispensed) but are very effective in dogs that have severe phobias.

4) Avoid letting your pet go outside during main events: Lock the cat flap and ensure there is a litter tray in the home as stressed cats may not want to go outside to toilet. Try not to take dogs for walks during the main events. Walk earlier in the evening or change up their

Lucy and Theo are 4 month old kittens who came into care at around 11 weeks old and are looking for a forever home together. Their mum was a feral cat and they were born in a stable. Since coming into care they have been on an intense socialisation programme and have made fantastic progress. They love their food, playing and now really enjoy being stroked. However, they have missed out on some socialisation and so need a home prepared to help them continue on their journey. They have been neutered and chipped and are in great health.

They would like an adult only home or home with older children.

They need someone who is home a reasonable amount of time to continue to invest in their socialisation journey. Ideally, they would not be regularly left for more than 4-6 hours at a time while they grow in confidence. They’d like a nice safe garden and most importantly lots of love, patience and time to play!

If you think you may be able to offer Lucy and Theo their forever home, please get in touch on 0345 260 1387 or adoption@epsom.cats.org.uk

The Benefits of Pet Ownership Humans are the only species known to deliberately keep another creature purely for pleasure. In a study that looked at the culture of 60 different countries, it was found that 52 of them considered it acceptable to keep a dog, but these animals were only regarded as a pet in 22 countries. Dogs living in many other places were usually kept for practical purposes, such as hunting, guarding and protection, or even raised for food.

Britain is a nation of pet lovers, having been the first country in the world to endorse animal protection laws. Social media sites that display photos of cute animals have been largely responsible for certain species and breeds soaring in popularity.

Pet owners enjoy multiple benefits from their love of animals, including better mental health.

Dog owners, in particular, are more active than those without a dog, and this can often help to

maintain good health. People with pets are less lonely because they talk not only to their animals but tend to chat to other people with similar interests. A dog is a great social tool! Stroking fur provides a form of sensory stress relief, as it is rhythmic and calming. Even keeping fish in an aquarium can help to reduce pulse rate and muscle tension, because the act of watching movement is soothing. What’s more, the routine of caring for a pet adds structure and meaning to a day.

It’s responsible for 60% of strokes and half of all heart attacks, yet because it typically has no symptoms, most people with high blood pressure have no idea they are at risk – hence why it is sometimes referred to as a silent killer. The British Heart Foundation estimates that up to 4.8 million people live with undiagnosed high blood pressure in the UK, and the only way to find out whether it affects you is by having a blood pressure check.

The good news, however, is that every NHS pharmacy in England will offer free blood pressure checks to people aged 40 and over as part of a new deal between pharmacies and the NHS. This will undoubtedly help to increase detection of undiagnosed hypertension.

Hypertension or high blood pressure is a level that’s consistently at or above 140/90 and it affects one in three adults in the UK. Usually the cause is not clear but there are factors that can increase your risk of getting it, including: • Being overweight

• Being a poor sleeper

• Eating too much salt and not eating enough fruit and vegetables

• Being aged 65 and over

• Not doing enough exercise • Drinking too much alcohol or coffee • Smoking

16 16

• Family history of high blood pressure or heart disease • Ethnicity – being of black African or black Caribbean descent • Living in a deprived area

Speaking about the new high street pharmacy blood pressure check scheme, the charity’s director of policy and influencing, John Maringay, added: “This breakthrough programme will also help with the devastating burden of backlog of care left by the Covid-19 pandemic, which could see the number of people waiting for heart care and diagnosis peak at around 550,385 in January 2024, according to our latest report.

“Having your blood pressure checked by your local pharmacist is a simple and quick test that will only take about five minutes to complete. Knowing your blood pressure levels will also mean you can discuss the risks with a healthcare professional, who will signpost you to the most effective source of treatment and onward management of your condition.

Prevention is always better than cure, so it’s important that you know your numbers and check your blood pressure.”

It’s also possible to diagnose hypotension or low blood pressure with a blood pressure check.

A low blood pressure reading is one that’s less than 90/60. Symptoms that might indicate your blood pressure is too low include lightheadedness, dizziness, nausea, blurred vision, generally feeling weak, confusion and fainting.

Our blood pressure can vary depending on what time it is, as it gradually increases throughout the day. What we’re doing and how we’re feeling can also affect it. There’s a number of possible causes of low blood pressure. For example, it can be low because you’re fit and healthy or be inherited hypotension from your parents.

Some people naturally develop low blood pressure as they age. In addition, being pregnant, having certain medical conditions such as diabetes and some medications can cause low blood pressure too.

Enchanted Christmas, Westonbirt Arboretum, Gloucestershire Rainbows of floodlit trees, sparkling walkways, smoke effects, talking trees and a forest of candy canes: Westonbirt is every child’s idea of paradise. Saying that, there’s plenty for adults here too! Arts and crafts stalls, choirs and bands playing all the Christmas classics, and plenty of festive food – not to mention mulled wine – combine to make Westonbirt the perfect festive light trail for the whole family.

Christmas at Kew Gardens, London Arguably the most popular and established festive light trail in the South, Christmas at Kew Gardens uses its exotic plants and beautiful botanicals to give visitors a truly magical experience.

New imaginative installations are added each year to keep the trail fresh. You can expect to see everything from treetop waterfalls and neon-wrapped trees to flaming sculptures and spectacular water displays – all set against the impressive backdrop that is Kew’s gigantic greenhouse.

Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire The formal gardens surrounding the beautiful, 300-year-old World Heritage Site that is Blenheim Palace seem to be tailor-made for the mesmerising light trail that winds through them each winter.

Christmas at Waddesdon, Buckinghamshire One of the National Trust’s most visited properties, Waddesdon Manor’s Victorian country house and gardens are a spectacle to see at any time of year. Add in the immersive light and sound installations, twinkling fairy-tale tunnels and a show-stopping light display, and you’re left with an immersive experience that never fails to amaze.

To top it off, there’s even a Christmas fair that pops up each winter. Shop for presents while sipping mulled wine and nibbling mince pies.

Waddesdon Manor by Jerry Clack, CC BY-ND 2.0

With lasers, pulsing vines, a flaming-torch-lit rose garden, fire sculptures floating in water – and more – it’ll take a good two hours to take it all in. This year, visitors can even delve inside the Palace rooms, each one exquisitely transformed into a fantasy scene straight from your favourite fairy tale.

At Blenheim, magic really is all around.

Christmas at Gibside, Tyne and Wear This spectacular light trail is what happens when lighting specialists, Ignite, partner up with one of the National Trust’s grandest Georgian estates.

These eighteenth-century gardens near Newcastle are transformed into a sparkling winter wonderland each Christmas, complete with glowing woodland mushrooms, lantern-lit trails, illuminated trees and picture-perfect tunnels filled with twinkling lights. Don’t forget to look out for Father Christmas amidst all the action too!

Lightopia by Mark, CC BY 2.0

Dunham Massey, Cheshire Dunham Massey’s after-dark trail will light up the estate for the fifth year this Christmas. Glittery deer at the garden’s entrance join the real herds that roam this National Trust estate. From here, visitors are invited to follow the trail through the illuminated gardens, where sculptures, tunnels of light and colourful canopies of trees come together to create an enchanting experience.

Have a rest in the flickering fire garden – the perfect spot to pause for reflection over a warm hot chocolate or mulled wine.

Lightopia, Manchester Lighting up Heaton Park for yet another year, this award-winning annual festival of light is bringing with it fresh installations and exciting new routes this Christmas.

It’s advised to come hungry, as there’s an entire food court for your taste buds to explore. Once you’ve refuelled, an interactive music space, astronomy zone filled with space-themed installations, and synchronised light, sound and water show await

Christmas at the Botanics, Edinburgh Founded all the way back in 1670, Edinburgh’s Royal Botanic Garden’s lush landscape makes the perfect backdrop for this botany-themed trail that will be returning for the fifth year this Christmas.

Wander amongst laser lights, giant luminescent sculptures, tunnels of light, giant baubles and sparkling snowflakes. Be sure to hang around for the grand finale too; a technicolour light show cast across the garden’s Inverleith House, this spectacle is just another way Edinburgh brings this historic facade to life.

Royal Botanics Edinburgh by Steve Talas, CC BY 2.0

Christmas at Belton, Lincolnshire Covering 1,300 acres, Christmas at Belton House is a festoon of oversized baubles, kaleidoscopic snowflakes, giant candles and plenty of festive cheer.

Since 2020, the gardens of this Grade I listed country house have been transformed each winter into a mile-long trail of spectacular light installations. The larger-than-life glittering deer is a must-see, and the scented fire garden provides a calming space and a welcome rest for your eyes after the estate’s frenzy of lasers!

We love winter, but sometimes it gets so cold that the central heating just isn’t enough. Not to worry: there’s tons of tech designed to keep you toasty.

61

There are lots of heaters for your home in a range of prices. If money is no object, Dyson’s Purifier Hot+Cool uses Dyson’s bladeless fan technology to deliver winter warmth or summer cool without the buffering or noise of traditional fan heaters.

Dyson Purifier Hot+Cool Keep cool in summer, warm in winter and breathe nicer air all year round with this typically clever Dyson appliance. £549, Dyson.com

Now might be a good time to invest in a smart heating system. Systems such as British Gas’s Hive enable you to make your thermostat smart, so you can control it from your phone, tablet, smartwatch or smart speaker. You can get it to turn on automatically when you’re coming home and off when you’re going out, so you’re not paying to heat an empty home. You can also get smart radiator valves that only heat the room(s) you’re currently using.

Many free-standing heaters and radiators have built-in timers, but you can also add a smart timer to existing plug-in heaters by fitting a £10 smart plug.

If you have frosty feet an electric foot warmer could be a brilliant buy. We like the ones that look like a single oversized slipper – although they’re not ideal when you have to get up and answer the door.

Technology has the answer when we venture outside too. In addition to smart fabrics that retain body heat, which you’ll find in products such as Columbia Sportswear’s Omni-Heat jackets and fleeces, you can even take an electric blanket under your coat: lots of different firms make heated body warmers, which look like normal body warmers but include heating elements and batteries that recharge just like phones. Expect around ten hours of warmth at the lowest setting and three on high. To just warm up your hands, you can get a rechargeable hand warmer, or there’s a rechargeable heated scarf for less than £10 – and if your car doesn’t have heated seats, you can add a heated cushion for less than £40.

22 22

Hive Smart Thermostat Make any heating system into a smart heating system with the Hive Smart Thermostat.

You can control it with your phone, tablet, smart watch or smart speaker. £249 including installation, Hive.com

Conqueco Heated Vest There are many heated vests on sites such as Amazon and this is one of the more expensive models, but it has hundreds of positive reviews. £102, Amazon.co.uk

Zippo Heat Bank 9s Hand Warmer Zippo are famous for their lighters, but there’s a whole range of hand warmers too. The 9s is the latest model, and it not only heats your hands but charges your gadgets too. £44, zippo.co.uk

Putting it very simply- the number patterns and codes for both the two and three times table is ‘Patterns of Infinity’ employs the ancient also the key to learning the twelve times.

There are times when only something more elaborate than painted walls will properly enhance your home’s interior scheme, and wallpaper is fashionable, fun and creates a fabulously individual effect.

A World of Choice Wallpaper choice includes not only conventional, machine-printed designs, but also natural woven fibres, light-reflecting metallics and waterproof Wallpaper can highlight strong features, such as a double-height space. Tulip wallpaper in Blue Black, £78 vinyls. There are also hand-finished papers that per roll, Little Greene: 020 7935 8844; littlegreene.com. feature cutwork, stitching or appliqué, interactive papers to colour in or add stickers to, traditiondesigns incorporating crystals, beading, sequins ally hand-blocked papers, three-dimensional or tiny LED lights, digitally printed papers made to your own design and even magnetic wallpapers that work as a noticeboard.

Choosing Pattern and Style It’s usual to pick a wallpaper pattern that suits the size of the room, but it is possible to create a dramatic effect with an oversized pattern in a small space. When choosing, look at small patterns from a distance, as they may just blend into one overall colour.

Textured wallpapers add a tactile element, while metallic papers are sophisticated and great for reflecting light, but are best used only where the wall is smooth and flat. For bathrooms and kitchens, choose a moisture-resistant, wipe-clean wallpaper, and avoid using papers directly around the bath, shower or sink, unless as a splashback protected with a sheet of acrylic or glass.

To prevent wallpaper becoming overwhelming, just cover one wall – usually the wall that most draws the eye in a room. Alternatively, paper either above or below dado rails, or into niches This digitally printed wallpaper adds sophisticated colour and pat- or panelled areas, or behind the shelves of a tern to a glamorous cloakroom. Rainbow Ginkgo Blue wallpaper, dresser or cupboard.

Something Different Rather than hang wallpaper vertically all around a room, create a feature by using either different colourways of the same pattern or contrasting papers in the same colourway.

Alternatively, hang wallpaper horizontally, or mix up the designs for a handcrafted, bohemian effect. A recent trend has been for wallpapered ceilings.

The Practicalities Allow new plaster to dry and prepare it with either sizing solution or watered-down wallpaper paste before papering. Decorate the ceiling and all the woodwork first. To disguise lumpy walls, first hang lining paper horizontally (this is known as cross-lining).

When calculating how much wallpaper to buy, remember to allow for pattern repeats and wastage. It’s important to buy enough to complete your project, as different batches may have very slight variations in colour (check the batch numbers are the same on all the rolls). It’s best to use the paste recommended by the manufacturer.

It is an A5 size booklet, stapled with colour plus black and white printed on quality paper.

The Companion will be printed on 115gsm gloss paper giving it a very high quality feel.

It will have ‘longevity’ and because of it’s size, content, look and feel it will be kept by the majority of households until the next issue arrives, thereby giving advertisers ‘immdiacy’ of access’ when their services are required.

• Colours and patterns are often the first things you notice when you walk into a room, but textures are equally significant, adding visual interest and tactile appeal, even in a monochrome scheme.

Introducing elements of weaving, crochet and knitting will provide gorgeous, nubbly textures that are especially welcoming in the cooler months.

• In bathrooms, kitchens and other rooms that feature lots of smooth, shiny surfaces, woven accessories such as rugs, baskets, plant pots and wall hangings add character and help alleviate the flat, sterile feeling.

• From Fair Isle to moss stitch, accent rugs to chunky throws, textures can be mixed and contrasted for an overall feel that is layered, vibrant and embracing.

Seize the opportunity for planting

By Caroline Knight: Gardendesignideas.co.uk

As winter begins to wrap its chilly fingers around the garden, it’s hardly surprising that many people turn inwards and gardening activities gradually slow down or even cease. But there’s plenty of opportunity to create a visual feast that will carry you through the colder months of the year. The garden can be enjoyed from both indoors and out, and November is the perfect planting time while there is still warmth in the soil.

What’s more, bare-rooted plants are often available at this time of year, making them much easier to transport – and less expensive too.

Consider planting shrubs that will give you colourful berries, trees for fiery autumn foliage, those that provide winter stem colour and structural plants that will make your garden look appealing throughout every season. Aim to have a few plants that give you something beautiful every month, so that your garden is set alight during dull days.

There are more steps to take this month in order to create a garden for all seasons. You can still plant tulip bulbs right up until the end of December, for example.

Planting late helps guard against viral and fungal diseases such as tulip fire. Each bulb represents a little powerhouse promise of spring joy, to keep hope alive all through the winter.

If you have a lawn, this is the time to reshape it. You’ll be delighted by the difference that crisp edges make when the green carpet is neatened up. What’s more, this should now last you right around to the new

30 30

year, so it’s a task well worth the effort. Prune back overgrown roses this month, take away damaged or crossing twigs and gently neaten up the borders. But be sure to leave seed heads for the birds to enjoy and provide enough undergrowth and leaf litter to offer shelter and feeding opportunities for wildlife.

Invite birds to bring life into the autumn and winter garden Caring for wildlife brings benefits for all. Birds, especially, will give you daily interest, introducing colour and vitality to the garden at a time of year when most plants are dormant. They will also scratch around your borders in their search for grubs and insects, enjoying the covering of leaf litter and mulch that also provides warmth for the dormant plant roots.

Your bird feeders themselves can be a thing of beauty.

Choose architecturally pleasing designs that will last for many years, so that even when there are no birds they give you pleasure. Consider using a tree as a feeding station from which you can hang multiple feeders containing different types of food.

Five shrubs to provide fireworks for the season Callicarpa bodinieri var. giraldii ‘Profusion’ looks fairly inconspicuous for most of the year, but then comes its awe-inspiring bead-like berries that are violet-purple in colour. They stay on the shrub after the leaves have dropped, when the display of pom-pom berries is as vibrant as any firework in the sky. It’s easy to see why this plant is known as the beautyberry.

Please mention the magazine when contacting Advertisers

The spindle tree, Euonymus europaeus, is a great little shrub at any time of year. But autumn is when it excels. Choose the variety E. ‘Red Cascade’ for maximum impact. The autumn leaf colour is wonderful, then the generous display of fruits needs to be seen in order to be believed. Each one is a vibrant red but when it splits open it reveals delightfully clashing colours from bright orange seeds.

Viburnum opulus, the guelder rose, is a shrub that provides interest during three seasons. There are clusters of creamy white flowers in spring, then it is smothered in hanging bunches of luscious red berries in autumn that are loved by birds. The rich red autumn foliage colour is also a sight to behold.

We are spoilt for choice when it comes to autumn leaf colour. Acers are well known for their incredible display of red, yellow and orange leaves. But it’s Amelanchier that wins the autumn show. Also known as snowy mespilus, this small tree sets the borders alight with scarlet, orange and crimson leaves.

It is an A5 size booklet, stapled with colour plus black and white printed on quality paper.

The Companion will be printed on 115gsm gloss paper giving it a very high quality feel.

It will have ‘longevity’ and because of it’s size, content, look and feel it will be kept by the majority of households until the next issue arrives, thereby giving advertisers ‘immdiacy’ of access’ when their services are required.

Euonymus spindle tree berries

but not only because of their leaves and berries.

Cornus, or dogwood, has vibrant stem colour once the leaves have dropped. There are varieties with lime-green stems, some with flaming orange and red stems and others with dark purple tones. Plant en masse for maximum effect and cut the stems down each year in late winter, so that next year’s show is equally as vibrant.

Shrubs really do steal the show at this time of year,

Tumblers, flutes, coupes and stems – glasses are functional objects with a fascinating history. Here are ten facts to liven up your next session at the pub.

1. Glass making dates back to the ancient civilizations of Syria, Egypt, and Mesopotamia. Glass wine vessels first appeared in Egypt sometime around 1500 BC, but it wasn’t until the Romans discovered the technique of glass blowing that glass became both functional and highly sought after.

2. In early seventeenth century England, the Royal Navy needed oak trees for shipbuilding, so glassmakers turned to using coal in their furnaces. This burned to much higher temperatures and produced stronger glass. This was also a major turning point for the champagne producers of France, as they now had a bottle much better suited to the high pressure of their brewing method.

3. According to a study published in the British Medical Journal, the size of the average wine glass increased by 700% between 1700 and 2017, with the greatest increase in size coming in the last few decades.

4. The stem on a wine glass has a practical purpose.

By keeping your warm hand away from the bowl, wine maintains the correct temperature and furthermore ensures that you only smell the wine when drinking, not your skin.

5. Conversely, the short stem on a brandy bowl is designed to make it easy to hold the glass in the palm of your hand, so warming the spirit.

6. Sparkling wine doesn’t need the bowl-shaped glass used for still whites and reds, as the bubbles release the aroma without any swirling.

7. Glass is 100% recyclable and can be recycled again and again without losing any quality.

But if it’s not recycled it can take up to a million years to decompose.

8. Drinking glasses containing crystal are stronger and therefore can be made thinner, making for an aesthetically more pleasing drinking experience.

Art Nouveau glass (C. 1910)

9. The most popular type of glass in which beer is served in a pub is the straight glass, with a bulge about an inch from the top. The bulge is there to stop the glasses chipping near the rim when being washed together.

10. The custom of clinking glasses may have originated from fears of poisoning. If a host wanted to prove that the wine wasn’t poisoned, he would pour part of the guest’s wine into his glass and drink it first. If the guest trusted his host, he would just ‘clink’ when the host offered his glass for a sample.

Schools and the Pandemic The pandemic has been incredibly challenging for the education sector. There was no blueprint for schools to follow, no guide telling head teachers how to provide remote learning. Some schools were at a digital disadvantage, unable to deliver lessons to pupils remotely, either because the school did not have the resources, or because pupils did not have the right devices or reliable internet access.

Those schools that were able to deliver remote learning successfully still faced challenges. Laura Castree, a secondary school teacher, told us, “A huge part of teaching is deciphering what your pupil needs and planning accordingly; this became incredibly difficult when teaching remotely, and we had to overhaul resources, teaching styles and priorities practically overnight.”

Many children fell behind with their schoolwork during the lockdowns. When pupils returned to school, teachers were then faced with classrooms of children all at different stages of their learning. Disadvantaged children fell even further behind their peers.

Even more worrying was the effect of the pandemic on children’s mental health. When surveyed, most schools said that some of their pupils were suffering from Covid-related anxiety.

OFSTED found that some children had lost physical fitness, others showed signs of mental distress, and there was an increase in eating disorders and self-harm.

It hasn’t just been pupils who have struggled with mental health. The pandemic came on the back of years of per-pupil spending cuts, increased class sizes and numerous curriculum changes, so thousands of teachers were already suffering from work-related stress. A 2019 survey

by the teachers’ union NASUWT found that 70% of teachers felt their job had adversely affected their mental health. By September 2020, more than half of teachers said that their mental health had declined further. By April 2021, 43% of teachers were experiencing all four of the main symptoms of burnout.

It’s hardly surprising that teachers struggled, considering the additional pressures they were under. Geoff Barton, General Secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, commented, “Our teachers have had to rapidly adapt to changing circumstances on many occasions. They have: rapidly become experts in delivering remote learning; run on-site provision for the children of key workers and vulnerable children during lockdowns; managed complex Covid safety measures; set up testing stations to enable pupils to return to classrooms; and, most recently, taken responsibility for assessing students following the cancellation of public exams.”

It may take years before we understand the long-term effects of the pandemic on children.

However, there is a sense of optimism in the education sector. Both pupils and teachers experienced a much more normal return to school this year. Extra-curricular clubs have restarted and children have more freedom to socialise again.

As Laura Castree explains, “It has been apparent that some pupils fared better than others during lockdowns, but it was wonderful to see them back in the classroom, and actually the majority returned with a new and positive attitude towards school and their teachers that endured throughout the year and made the catch-up process much easier.”

hope when you read this, local people are no longer queueing for hours to get petrol or diesel.

But as I write, people are still queueing: our area has already suffered two weeks of fuel shortages. The queues have been so long at times, that surrounding roads have become gridlocked.

While London and the South East have been particularly badly hit, this fuel pump crisis has hit the whole country: nurses, care workers and teachers all struggling to get fuel to travel to work, with many businesses have face serious disruption.

Of course, the fuel crisis is not the only problem. Rising gas prices and rocketing heating bills, empty food shelves and shortages of HGV drivers, care staff, farm workers and so on, are all taking their toll. The crisis hitting pig farmers, because there aren’t the trained staff at abattoirs, is horrific.

The cost of living crisis is hitting everyone, with inflation at a 9 year high and set to rise further. Low paid workers and their families losing £1,000 a year in universal credit, and hit by the rise in national insurance contributions, are facing a particularly tough time this winter.

Government Ministers blame lots of people for all this. You and me – for panic buying petrol and diesel.

Industry. Immigrants. The EU. Apparently, we are all to blame. Ministers are just busy raising our wages.

Apparently.

Who are they kidding? Some of their media friends may lap up their excuses, but does anyone else seriously fall for the Prime Minister’s blame game?

I can tell you, from personal experience, that the fuel pump crisis is without doubt the fault of Government Ministers.

As Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change back in 2012, I was part of a Government threatened by a potential strike by fuel tanker drivers. And faced with the potential fuel pump crisis a strike would have created, we prepared. We didn’t leave it simply to industry.

Government-led preparations. Something the current Government refused to do. Even though the transport industry had been warning the Government of problems for over a year.

Back in June, the Road Haulage Association set out a list of 12 demands to help resolve the issue and prepare for this Autumn, including classing HGV drivers as skilled workers to make it easier to recruit them from abroad, and improving conditions in the sector

Now back in 2012 a serious mistake was made – which did cause a mini-fuel pump crisis. Back then, a Conservative minister, Francis Maude, was initially in charge of preparing for a potential fuel pump crisis – and he chaired the COBRA committee I sat on.

At one COBRA meeting, Mr Maude proposed that, as part of our preparations, we should ask the public to stock up on petrol and diesel, and he proposed that we should tell the public to “fill up jerry cans”.

I and other Ministers strongly advised against this – and said it would lead to panic buying. Regrettably, he ignored our advice: and his TV and radio interviews created a crisis - without any strike - and pumps temporarily ran dry.

Mr Maude was moved aside, and the then Prime Minister asked me to lead the preparations instead.

One of my first moves to end panic buying was to stop every minister from going onto the airwaves. An effective news blackout. That way, the danger of mixed messages was avoided and calm was rapidly restored and fuel pumps were rapidly refilled – a communications lesson this government clearly forgot or ignored.

In my view, Ministers helped create the panic buying – and they should not blame the public or industry.

But back in 2012, I still had to prevent a strike. So I worked with the Ministry of Defence to draw up and implement contingency plans so the country had more than 1,000 military drivers trained to drive fuel tankers if needed. And we avoided the strike and a fuel pump crisis in the end thanks to ACAS negotiations and sensible rank and file union members – plus an understanding in the UNITE union that Government was well prepared.

After that success, we decided to add permanently to the training of military HGV drivers, so we would always have around 800 military personnel already trained to drive fuel tankers, ready to mobilise super-fast.

So I have looked on at this Government’s incompetence over the fuel pump crisis with incredulity.

They should have prepared - they were warned. They should have got their public messaging right - they should have learned. And they should have had in place much earlier trained military personnel to drive the tankers.
