The importance of seeking legal advice when making a will The Law Commission reported that around 40% of people don’t have wills. Due to changing patterns in family life such as partners cohabiting or having second families making a will is becoming ever more important. Unfortunately, even when a will is made problems can arise if it is not drafted carefully. Many people believe a DIY will, will be cheap, however if it is incorrectly drafted, the cost to a person’s estate can far outweigh the initial cost had they gone to a professional. Problems may arise as a result of mistakes in the drafting of the will, the meaning of the will being unclear, or issues with the execution of the will. The Co-operative Legal Services (CLS) have been reported to suggest that ‘poorly drafted or ineffective DIY wills are to blame for a prolonged probate ordeal for 38,000 families a year’. This risks leaving a legacy of financial and
emotional strain plus potentially higher legal and tax bills. Even when consulting a professional, be aware that anyone can be a ‘will writer’ without needing legal qualification or regulation. However, solicitors are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and must have indemnity insurance, which means that if anything goes wrong, you are protected. Making a will with a solicitor needn’t be expensive. At Spratt Endicott, the usual cost for making a single will is £250 plus VAT or £350 plus VAT for mirror wills. If you would like to discuss making, or updating your will please contact Julia Routen on 01295 204 012 or jrouten@se-law.co.uk.

stem. The garden and countryside seem to change, almost overnight, from brown and dank to a verdant, bright, delicate and precious green.
Sow what? After a fairly benign winter and stormy March, I am hoping for a perfect April. Warm enough on sunny days to work outside in shirt sleeves, but with quite a few days of solid rain to fuel the new seasons growth. What growth there is! The red and green on the roses is almost luminous, the clematis need tying in as they reach for the sunshine. There are leaves on almost every previously bare
Early sowings of rocket and tomatoes need potting on and it’s time to think about sowing some of the later crops under cover of a cloche, cold frame, greenhouse or windowsill. April is a great time to give your lawn some TLC too. Give it a good rake to remove dead material, stab it with a fork to get air to the roots and give it a feed with bone meal or lawn food to keep it going strong right through the summer. That lush green growth is best not scalped the first cut, then the blade gradually.

Article written by Michelle HisLooking good
Clematis armandii comes into full flower (see pic above) This strong growing evergreen does best on a warm wall or fence where it will get some protection from the hardest of winter freezes. The plant that typifies April the best has to be the Euphorbia in its many forms. Wood spurge, Euphorbia amygdaloides, with its evergreen base of foliage, sends up flower spikes almost double its height, that emerge acid green, brightening the gloomiest of corners. They are a great foil for tulips, which are also at their bestnow. With that April shower water glistening on the flowers they are the most certain sign that spring is here and winter is
behind us. We must savour every moment.
Enjoy!

Brackley Town Football Club... w w w.b rac k le y to wn fc .c om
The last few months have brought a terrific run of form from Kevin Wilkin’s team. Reaching the quarter-final stage of the FA Trophy competition for the third season running was a major achievement. Losing out narrowly to National League Leyton Orient was of course disappointing but also brought a large crowd to St James Park, a very exciting match and a day that everybody at the club can feel proud of. In National League North the run of form since Christmas has taken the team into the play-off places and given a strong chance to make those end of season crunch games with a chance of promotion to the National League.
Two young players in extension to his contract which is particular have stood out. Striker great news for everybody at the Lee Ndlovu and wide-man Matt club. Lowe have continued to develop Kevin has been a fantastic through the season and have appointment bringing stability become consistent performers and and success. The club has also regulars in the team. Matt was announced further improvements selected for the England “C” wider to its St James Park stadium as the squad and will surely now progress club gears up for even better things to the full England “C” side to gain ahead. international recognition and Adam Walker on the ball become Brackley Town’s first player to do so. Connor Hall has recovered from a long spell out injured and has returned to partner captain Gaz Dean in defence and form a formidable pairing. Manager Kevin Wilkin has signed a two year
