Welcome... NOVEMBER 2021 ISSUE
November’s here, with its glorious palette of crunchy fallen leaves, sharp frosts hinting that winter is just around the corner, and Remembrance Sunday to remind us all how much we owe to those who gave their lives for our country. Bonfire night brings excitement and community spirit at firework displays, whilst we’re looking towards Christmas and planning fabulous festivities without breaking the bank. Whatever you’re up to this month, stay cosy! Until next time……..

Cloudy2Clear, A Local Family Service With A Smile I think we can all agree that as the weeks and months go by and we move further away from a disastrous 2020, that we can once again start to feel optimistic about the future. Now we are hopefully ready to take on the remainder of 2021 both safely and positively. One thing is for sure though, there have also been some heart warming positives that we can take out of last year. It has often been said that we can only really get to know one another and realise what is truly important in times of crisis. I think few would argue that in this case what has proven to be important is local community and family spirit. When talking to Trevor & Wendy Skidmore the
owners of Cloudy2Clear Northampton & Oxford it became clear that these values have been held for over 13 years. Since buying the local franchise in 2006 they have remained true to their core values of supporting the local community whilst introducing their 2 sons Lloyd & Ross into the family business along with Dan, Mark & Jo as demand for their service has grown.

W h a t s h o u l d I l o o k fo r i n a c o nveya n c e r ? Buying or selling a property can be a stressful process, but there are some easy steps you can take to help to make the conveyancing process as smooth and as calm as possible. Reputation and client satisfaction Take time to research your solicitor or conveyancer. Recommendations by professionals, friends or family are a good starting point. Visit the solicitor’s website and if they have client testimonials, have a read through. Some firms have profiles, photos and contact details of their conveyancers, so you can be reassured who you will be dealing with. Law firms may also be accredited with The Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS), providing evidence of a recognised quality standard. Transparent costs Like with most services, you will probably want to get 2 or 3 quotes for your conveyancing work. Make sure you are comparing like-for-like quotes, that you see a breakdown of the fees and that these are
transparent and fixed from the outset. Regular communication Property conveyancing is often dependent on a ‘chain’ and complications can arise that may hold the process up, so it is important your conveyancer keeps you informed of developments as they happen. When choosing your conveyancer, check how they will be communicating with you, for example, ask if they have direct dial and email, and can you check the progress of your matter online 24/7. If you would like to talk to Spratt Endicott Solicitor’s team of property experts in Brackley about buying or selling a property, please contact Terena Barnacle, Head of Brackley office on 01280 730882 or email tbarnacle@se-law.co.uk

• Feeling low – these can include low self-esteem, lack of connection to things, avoiding social contact, things feel too overwhelming, increased anxious thoughts If you feel you are having these symptoms, then book an appointment with your GP

The wind blows wild, it rains and pours and darkness lengthens by the day. The least hardy gardeners are already shut up indoors for the season and the nation’s favourite gardening TV show goes off air. So this month should be a short to do list. My November must-dos are: planting up some seasonal containers, underplanted with spring bulbs, cramming in evergreens and cheery violas. Pop them near your doors so when you do venture out you can appreciate them. It isn’t too late to plant your bulbs in the ground too. Just get them in before the worst of winter when the ground is Brackley Based 25 years experience

November in the garden...
frozen solid. I give some of my roses a bit of a prune if the gales are blowing stems around too much. It is a good time to plant garlic as it needs a period of cold to get the bulb to form cloves properly. I also like to pop in cold hardy leafy veg like chard, kale etc. If you have lots of leaves falling you can collect them up to make leaf mould, a really good soil conditioner to break up Northamptonshire clay. You can save yourself some work and merely redistribute the leaves to where you need them providing they don’t blow away! The bare root planting season is just starting. I love field-grown stock as it’s so much cheaper and the plants seem to get going in the spring far better than their pot grown counterparts. Ask your local nurseryman for roses, native hedging, trees and fruit trees and soft fruit! This also tells you it’s a good time of year to move shrubs and trees that aren’t in the right place. Dig the new hole first so those all-important feeding roots aren’t left exposed and dry. Remember to keep well watered next spring and summer.
Fine range of great plants
Thinking ahead to the C word, start reconnaissance for wreath material foraging. Colourful dogwood stems, conifers, berried trees and of course holly and ivy all make great winter wreaths. Seedheads, pampas flowers are also great additions. Don’t forget to get permission before foraging! If you do nothing else do try and get out and kick some leaves and smell the air this November, makes the warmth of indoors and a steaming mug even cosier.

Brackley Town’s Matt Lowe on the ball...
The first months of the National league North season have seen a blistering start to the campaign by Kevin Wilkin’s Brackley Town side. A single defeat and a string of wins saw Saints take top spot alongside a fine run in the FA Cup. New players have been brought into the team with young Twariq Yusuf making an especially remarkable start scoring on his debut with the late winner at Chorley and scoring a spec-
tacular effort at Kidderminster Harriers in another excellent win on the road. Louis Lomas at centre back has also settled in quickly and become a regular feature of the side. In the FA Cup Saints entered the competition at the 2nd qualifying round stage and beat Coalville town to progress. The game featured Brackley captain Gaz Dean and his brother who turned out for Coalville, a story that found all the big headlines. In the 3rd qualifying round a replay was needed to overcome Hanley Town. The first tie was broadcast live on-line by the BBC on a day of terrible weather
and it took the replay at St James Park to make it through. Saints have built a strong tradition of success in the FA Cup and FA Trophy. Another set of exciting possible next ties await if they can continue this current run. FA Trophy games start soon also. The new Venue is now fully open and proving a big hit with supporters on match-days and the wider Brackley public through a range of events including Comedy Nights, music events and private bookings.
