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 Buckingham about buying or selling a property, please contact Abigail Grantham, Head of Buckingham office on 01280 730705 or email agrantham@se-law.co.uk.

Health & Beauty Section

Healthy drinking – everything in moderation? We’ve read the newspaper articles on the risks of alcohol, seen the government guidelines on units per week and every year there’s Dry January to help us get over our Christmas excesses, but in reality, drinking is as much a part of most social occasions as we are ourselves. With busy lives, too much to do and the need to go out and unwind every so often, it’s no surprise that most of us like an occasional tipple. On a lovely summer’s evening, many of us (erm, yes – guilty as charged!) regularly enjoy a Pimm’s in the garden, a well-earned G&T or few cold pints after a long day at work and it’s a lovely treat to share a bottle of wine over dinner. We know that regular heavy drinking can lead to all sorts of health problems – causing some

cancers, liver disease, obesity and so many more problems, which is enough to make most of us reconsider even the tiniest tipple. So is it ever healthy to have a drink - or two? Studies show that a regular small glass of red wine can be beneficial to health, because it’s packed full of antioxidants, and the anecdotal evidence of people living to a ripe old age is that many swear by a small tot of something each night as the key to long life. The key, as with everything, seems to be everything in moderation. Certain groups of people, such as pregnant women and those with some pre-existing conditions or who are on certain medications, need to stay well away from alcoholic drinks, but for the rest of us, what’s the answer? A unit of alcohol a day seems to be considered safe enough for most of us – when accompanied by a healthy lifestyle – plenty of sleep, regular exercise, a good diet and staying well hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

SCHOOL’S OUT FOR SUM It is important that any decorations you pick do not detract from the natural beauty of your garden. You will also need to think about the space that you have. If you overcrowd it with too many ornaments, then you may end up with little space to relax in when you do get time to enjoy the sunshine. Possibly one of the simplest ways that you can bring some elegance to your outdoor space is with an attractive statue. Statues are very variable so it does depend on your personal taste as to which you choose. Some love traditional Buddhas and gnomes, whilst animal lovers may fancy a creature or two - maybe a cat, hedgehog, dog or even a deer. The wonderful thing about having a planter in your garden is not only is it a lovely ornament, but it also allows you

Now is the ideal time to enhance your garden, especially with the summer holidays here when the whole family should enjoy it, says Buckingham Garden Centre’s Chris Day. There was a time when the only nongardening embellishments you would find in the garden may be a plastic gnome, a windmill or maybe a wind chime. Today putting ornaments in your garden is a great way of adding some additional fun and wow. They come in a variety of forms including statues, bird baths and planters.

MMER to display a variety of flowers too. This means that you can brighten up your garden with colourful flowers, without planting them in the ground. Wind spinners are another good way to add light, colour and movement to the feel of your garden. Again, there are plenty of different styles and designs to choose from. Look out for the Smart Garden Golden Ray spinners available in different sizes. One of the most popular sellers last year again this year is the Smart Garden Venti Wind Spinner (pictured left). This double sided wind spinner has a decorative, rustic effect, cupped wind catchers

and a solar crackle ball with colour changing effect. Being able to enjoy the local wildlife is one of the biggest plus points of your garden. If you want to entice some birds into your garden, then a bird bath is a great idea, especially through the summer months. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes and require very little maintenance apart from the necessity of being regularly cleaned and topped up with water. Also available in the in the shop and perfect for keeping the little ones busy is the Gardman Kids’ Paint Your Own Wild Bird Nest Box. It comes with four paints and brushes. The 32mm entrance hole makes it suitable for many species including Sparrows, Great Tits and Nuthatches. Of course, there are plenty of other fantastic ideas to be found in our Shop, including faux flower stakes, whimsical stakes, lanterns, solar lights, solar water features (pictured the Pitcher model) and much more. So, there you have it, some of the types of garden ornament and why we

think they are pretty useful for enhancing your garden. Whether you have a large, spacious garden or simply a space outside to call your own, there are ways that you can make it beautiful and a reflection of your own sense of style and pizzazz. If you are enjoying plenty of al fresco dining with the BBQ this summer, do make sure you have a good supply of fresh herbs to accompany your food dishes or to enhance and spice up your drinks! A planter filled with the likes of Mint, Rosemary, Thyme and Basil will give you the beauty of convenience as well as lovely planted feature. Many of these herbs do have some insect repelling qualities, however the use of a citronella candle may be useful as and when the midges come out to play at dusk.

Finally, why not add some welcome fragrance to your outdoor space this summer? Opt for an evergreen climber such as Trachelospermum jasminoides (Star Jasmine, pictured) or the deliciously scented semi-evergreen honeysuckle Lonicera japonica ‘Hall’s Prolific’. You can set these in large pots and provide a trellis frame or wires for them to scramble up. If you have a border close to a wall or fence near to the entertainment area set them into some wellprepared soil together. Both of these plants should provide a wealth of flower and scent from June onwards and if you are lucky well into the late summer!
