Queensgate Brings Primark To Peterborough With news which will transform shoppers’ lives in the area, Queensgate is thrilled to announce its bringing retail giant Primark to the city centre. Following a £20million investment, the centre will see a 930m extension to make room for the fashion retailer, with work due to start in spring 2011. Primark is set to open its doors in November 2012 right in time for the festive season.  The hugely popular store offering value shopping will be one of the largest units in Queensgate, showcased over two impressive floors. Stocking the full line of women’s, men’s, children’s and homeware, shoppers will be able to indulge in the all delights they come to expect from Primark’s unbeatable and low cost offering. Phil Drinkwater, marketing manager at

Queensgate, comments: “Being able to announce that we’re bringing such a hugely popular and in-demand store to the city centre is incredible. We know shoppers have wanted Primark in Peterborough for a long time, so are in no doubt that the store will drive high footfall and encourage even more visitors to Queensgate. “Already in the last few months we’ve seen our Republic store grow in size and new stores Pandora, Schuh, Klass, Superdry and Appy Feet open. Primark will cement Queensgate as the number one retail destination in the region and create a high number of employment opportunities, continuing to help

support the local economy.” Peter Cooper, Portfolio Director for owner’s Hammerson, commented: “Delivering a new MSU for Primark alongside securing aspirational and affordable fashion brands is part of our core strategy to underline the regional status the scheme already enjoys. “Our full line John Lewis, Waitrose and M&S stores already give us a strong foundation but we cannot be complacent. The best retail destinations need constant evolution and serious attention to detail in order to stay ahead of the competition to deliver the best possible sales platform for retailers and rental growth for investors.”

Advice

Christmas was expensive - you owe money on your credit card, your bank account is overdrawn and you are struggling to pay back a loan so what can you do?

D

Step One – make a list of your debts

•  •  •  •

on’t panic, but it’s important to do something,  because the problem won’t just go away. Don’t  ignore the people you owe money to (your  creditors). Contact them to explain why you’re having  problems and follow these steps to help you get back  in control of your fi nances.

Before you can tackle a debt problem, you need to collect  together information about your aff airs. Make a list of all your  creditors with the following information:   the name and address of the creditor  the account or reference number  the amount you owe.  It’s a good idea to keep the latest letters for each debt together  in one place so that you can easily fi nd them. If you’ve received  any court papers or letters that seem urgent, you may need  to act quickly. If you’re not sure what you should do next, get  advice straight away from an experienced adviser.  Once you’ve made a list of all your creditors, you need to  work out which ones to deal with fi rst. You need to deal with  some debts fi rst before others because the consequences of  not paying these debts can be more serious than for other  debts. The debts you deal with fi rst are called priority debts.  The debts you deal with after your priority debts are called  non-priority debts.

Step Two - Prioritise Your Debts, including

Mortgage or rent arrears. If you don’t pay these, you could lose  your home  Fuel arrears. If you don’t pay these, your fuel could be cut off   council tax arrears  Court fi nes such as magistrates’ court fi nes for traffi  c off ences  arrears of maintenance payable to an ex-partner or children.  This includes Child Support you owe to the Child Support  Agency  Income tax or VAT arrears  TV licence or TV licence arrears - it’s a criminal off ence to use a  TV without a valid licence and you could be fi ned.

Step Three – work out your budget

List all the income and expenses for your household. Be  honest and make sure that the amounts are realistic. You can  use a budget sheet to help you do this.  Under income, include:  earnings for your partner and yourself  any benefi ts you are paid, including Child Benefi t and tax  credits  maintenance from an ex-partner for you or your children.  Include any Child Support from the Child Support Agency  contributions from other members of your family and any  lodgers.  Think about the ways in which you might earn extra money  or increase your income. You may be able to claim benefi ts or  tax credits. Under expenses, include:  •  Housekeeping. Fill in realistic amounts for what you  spend on all your expenses, including food, cigarettes

•  •  •  •  •  •

and pet food  Housing costs. This should include mortgage or rent, a  second mortgage or secured loan, service charges and  life or endowment insurance cover attached to your  mortgage  Council tax  Fuel and water charges  Telephone charges  Travel expenses. Include both public transport and the  cost of running a car such as road tax, insurance, and  maintenance  Insurance such as buildings and contents insurance on  your home  Childcare costs  TV licence and any TV rental costs  clothes  Any other essential expenses  Money you set aside for emergencies.

When you’ve added up all the fi gures, you’ll see if you have  any money left over to pay your debts. You may even be able  to see if you can make some savings. An advice agency can  help you draw up a budget and help you increase your income  if this is possible.

Step Four - sort out your priority debts

agreement between you and your creditors about how you’ll  pay off  your debts. Get more advice from an experienced  adviser about IVAs  putting all your debts into one loan. This is called loan  consolidation. It isn’t usually a good idea to borrow  more money to get out of debt and there can be serious  disadvantages. Make sure you get advice before you take out  another loan.  If you have little or no money left after you’ve done  your budget, have nothing of value to sell and think your  circumstances are unlikely to get better soon, you will have  limited options for dealing with your non-priority debts. The  options you’ll have are:  •  asking your creditors to write off  your debt  •  applying for bankruptcy  •  applying for a Debt Relief Order. This is like  bankruptcy but for people who can’t aff ord to make  themselves bankrupt. You can apply if you have debts  of less than £15,000 and a low income. The application  has to be made through an adviser called an ‘approved  intermediary’.

Step Five  sort out your nonpriority debts

How you deal with your non-priority  debts will depend on whether you  have any money left over from dealing  with your priority debts and paying for  essential household expenses.  If you have money to spare, you may  have several options for dealing with  your non-priority debts. You may have  the option of:  making off ers to creditors yourself  asking an Advice Agency or Debt  Management Company to make off ers  for you  applying to court for an Administration  Order. You can apply for an  Administration Order if you have at least  one county court judgment against  you and debts of less than £5000  arranging an Individual Voluntary  Arrangement (IVA). This is a legal

ational Marriage Week runs from the 7th-14th of  February, so to get in the spirit of things we thought  we’d give our wedding couples a helping hand with  planning that all important day. Whether you’ve recently got engaged or have been engaged for some  time, organising your wedding can be one of the most exciting things  you’ll ever do. If your wedding is next year, now is the time to get those  creative juices fl owing – and with some organisation and inspiration,  you can make sure it’s as stress free as possible.  And let’s face it – who needs an excuse to have some fun?

Agree a budget - and st ick t o it! Discussing and setting a budget should be your fi rst priority. You need  to talk about what you want to spend and what you can realistically  aff ord. Be honest and discuss any concerns you might have –  remember, you both need to be happy with your decisions!

Do you have any ideas already? If you don’t, it’s time to start  brainstorming! Are there any friends’ weddings coming up soon?  They’re always good for ideas. Buy a wedding magazine and start  tearing out ideas that grab you. Perhaps there is a local wedding show  to go to? You’ll fi nd lots of ideas online – and there are some brilliant  websites packed with inspirational ideas, latest bargains and forums to  discuss ideas.  Sometimes a good starting point is to  think about what you both don’t want. Remember to ask friends and  family – they might have some  ideas you’ve not thought of.  BUT, remember, this is your  day as a couple, so don’t  get bullied into taking on  other people’s ideas!

You might fi nd it’s easier to decide your budget by breaking the day  into ‘key’ sections: wedding attire, venue (ceremony and reception),  catering, fl owers, rings, photographer, entertainment, stationery,  transport and honeymoon.  If family have off ered to help you with costs, have that  conversation now – it’s better for everyone to be in the  picture, and then you know how much you need to  save. Once you know how much you can allocate to  each part of the day, you can start to research your  options.  The trick is to stick to your budget – believe me, it’s  far too easy to get carried away with all the options  available.

Get researching

You’ve got plenty of time, so don’t panic. Starting your  wedding planning early means you have the luxury of being able to  look at all your options – and then again if needs be!

This early on, there’s no point worrying about who’s sitting where at the reception or what your first dance is going to be. You just need to make a start on the basic features of your day. Date – when do you want to get married? If you can pin it down to a certain month, that will help when you get quotes. But remember, some months, like during the winter, are cheaper than others. Midweek is also cheaper than a Saturday. Have you checked with family and friends in case you’ve picked a date that clashes with another family event? Guest List – you don’t need a final number at this stage, but when it comes to getting quotes you’ll need to work on an approximate number. It might also be worth making a decision now on whether to include children into the list – making a rule early on will avoid confusion for everybody. Themes – is there a specific colour or visual theme you want to incorporate into your day? Do you want a relaxed feel or something more traditional? Are there any specific styles that are personal to you as a couple? Venue – religious ceremony, civil ceremony? At home or away? Maybe you fancy ‘the destination wedding’? The choice is endless! Catering – buffet, bbq, sit down meal? Reception – local village hall, pub, hotel, marquee, or something different? A lot of places get booked up early – sometimes a year in advance so you do need to consider this option seriously, especially if you have a particular date in mind. Bridesmaids – if you’re having bridesmaids, how many do you want? Will you be buying their dresses? Once you’ve made your choices, you can delegate work to them. After all, they are your attendants, so you can make them work for the privilege. This also applies to the Best Man! Photographer – do you want traditional or relaxed photos? What about a video? Entertainment – disco, live band, classical music, chocolate fountains, fireworks, highland piper, line dancing, belly dancing… there is something for all tastes and budgets! Transport – limo, classic car, sports car, horse and carriage? Or perhaps you’re thinking of something different? Wedding attire – the men seem to get off lightly here, but as with all things there is more choice the earlier you start to look. For brides, finding that perfect dress can take as long as you want it to, and there’s no harm looking for ideas now. Some dresses need to be ordered, so it’s best to start early. Honeymoon – in most cases, it’s too early to start worrying about this now. But, there’s no harm in looking for ideas now and keeping your 16  SIMPLY HOLBEACH  www.simply-holbeach.co.uk

eyes peeled for a bargain. Health and Beauty – it’s time to start looking after your health and making sure you’re in tip top condition for that special day. Healthy eating, exercise, a good skin care routine - maybe even some time for pampering?

Booking

Once you’ve discussed these key areas, the next stage is start getting quotes and making visits. Don’t let any one bulldoze you into parting with your money – make sure it’s what you both want (marriage is about compromise, remember!). Once you start parting with money, keep a record of what you’ve paid for and when final payments are due. Why not set up a spreadsheet with everything on it so you can see what’s been paid? It can be very therapeutic to see things being ticked off!

So to summarise, here is a list of ‘essentials’ to tick off with just 12 months to go… • • • • • • •

Budget agreed Wedding date set (why not send out ‘save the date’ cards?) Approximate guest numbers discussed Wedding venue (ceremony and reception) – getting quotes/ booked Photographer & transport – getting quotes/booked Entertainment – discussing/getting quotes/booked Wedding attire – brainstorming started!

What’s next?

As the months go down, you’ll need to think about flowers, booking your honeymoon, menus, the wedding cake, rings, hen/stag parties, invitations and wedding lists. But there’s no need to worry about any of that now. Just stay calm and take one step at a time, and you’ll enjoy every minute of your wedding planning!

r e n r o C s ’ t Pe How responsible are you, when it comes to your pet, this February? February is traditionally known for candy hearts, roses and romance, but it’s also ‘Responsible Pet Owner’s Month’ too and Valentine’s Day and the aftermath will put any pet owner to the test. If you think the only thing dangerous about this romantic time is cupid’s arrow, think again! For pets Valentine’s and the following weeks can be a disaster! Each year veterinarians see a rise in poison cases following February 14th, many involving chocolate and lilies; a flower that’s potentially fatal to cats. Follow our advice on what you need to keep out of paws way this February and you’ll be celebrated as a responsible pet owner this month.

A thoughtful bouquet or a single rose...

This Valentine’s your loved one said it with flowers, but what flowers did they choose? Most people don’t realise that all species of lily can be potentially fatal to cats. If you’re one of the lucky ones and have received a gorgeous floral arrangement, delicately sift through it and remove any dangerous flora. If your pet becomes ill and suffers from symptoms such as stomach upset, vomiting or diarrhoea, it’s likely he/she may have ingested an offending flower or plant. And don’t forget that every rose has a thorn! It may be a token of love, but it’s also a thorny attacker for a pet. Animals don’t realise that biting, stepping on or swallowing roses could cause a puncture, which may result in a serious infection. De-thorn your roses far away from your pet.

Forbidden Chocolate

Chocolate contains methylxanthine alkaloids in the form of theobromine and caffeine, which cause constriction of arteries, increased heart rate and central nervous system stimulation. This can lead to vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, and increased urination, and can eventually cause excitability, increased respiration and heartbeat, stiffness, seizures, and exaggerated reflexes.

Seasoned pet owners will know the dangers of chocolate for their pets.

“Vets see a rise in poison cases following 14th February - Keep it out of paws way this Valentine’s.”

23 High Street, Spalding PE11 1TX Tel: 01775 713005 www.rookespetproducts.co.uk

So go ahead and indulge, but don’t leave chocolate out for your pets to find.

Chocolate may be the food for lovers, but it is very toxic to dogs and cats. A small amount can cause serious consequences.

18  SIMPLY HOLBEACH  www.simply-holbeach.co.uk


A toxic cocktail

Chilled champagne, a glass or two of wine is all part and parcel of romance, but beware! Spilled wine, half a glass of champagne or leftover liquor can do a great deal of harm to a pet. Being smaller than humans, a little bit of alcohol can cause no end of problems, including: vomiting, diarrhea, lack of coordination, central nervous system depression, tremors, difficulty breathing, metabolic disturbances and even a coma. Don’t leave any alcohol out where your pet may be tempted to lap it up!

Playing with fire

brush their own teeth; Pedigree Dentastix are one of the best methods!

Just be careful. Monitor the candles and try to keep them away from any pets in the house. And when you leave the room, put out the fire - or take it with you upstairs!

As a responsible pet owner it’s up to you to give your pet something to smile about. Make sure your pet has fresh breath, squeaky-clean teeth and most importantly a healthy grin.

Are you planning a romantic evening by Candlelight? That’s great, but keep in mind that cats and dogs are intrigued by dancing flames. Not only will whiskers get singed, but sometimes the hot wax will burn their cute little paws and faces.

Undressed to impress

As surprising as it may be, pets love lingerie —the fancier the better. We’re not kidding! Every year hundreds of dogs and cats undergo extensive surgery to remove panties and bras from their stomachs and intestines.

“Don’t lead them to temptation.” The problem usually begins when your underwear winds up on the floor. Your pet thinks it’s a new toy and sometimes swallows them. Ingested lingerie causes deadly bowel or stomach obstructions and must be surgically removed. Remember to pick up your undergarments before your cat or dog has time to get to them!

A love bite

Most pet owners don’t realise that bad breath is more than a faux pas. It can be the first warning sign of periodontal disease, which left unchecked can actually cause severe problems for your pet. Pet responsibility goes way beyond just feeding and exercising your fury friends. It involves time, training and attention to things you’ve probably never even considered! Whilst Valentine’s Day highlights a whole host of potential hazards, all holidays and seasons bring with them a new set of challenges. Make sure you’re prepared and be as responsible as you can all year round. If you need any help or advice on any of the topics covered above or you have your own concerns, talk to our experienced and friendly staff in store and we’ll do what we can to help you.

Did you know that February is also Pet Dental Month? Sadly dental hygiene is one of the areas where many pet owners fall short on their responsibilities. Pets are just as subject to dental disease as we are and you need to brush their teeth twice a day or provide them with the means to

Looking for a friendly local? Look no further than The Horse & Groom If you are looking for a clean, welcoming local pub then The Horse and Groom in Holbeach could be the perfect place for you. Nick and Tracey Williams decided over 6 years ago that Holbeach  was the place for them and decided The Horse & Groom on High  Street was the perfect pub for their family. They fell in love with  the traditional coaching inn with its old stables and are proud of  the work they have carried out over the past 6 years to bring it up  to the standard it is today.  It really is a traditional family run pub with a real emphasis on  being the heart of the local community. Whether you fancy a  coff ee while you are shopping in town, a lunchtime snack, an  evening meal or a Sunday lunch, The Horse & Groom off ers it  all. All food is home cooked using local produce and available  lunchtime and evenings.

One of the earliest recorded Licencee’s was William Motley, by  trade a tailor, from 1855 - 1864. Previous to William Motley  taking over the licence of the Horse and Groom he was the  licencee of the String of Horses in Holbeach. The 1861 Census shows him well established at the Horse and  Groom with his wife, Sarah, 3 servants and 2 lodgers. Of the  servants, one was the housekeeper and the other two were the  ostler and groom. This is an indication of the inn’s status off ering  accommodation for travellers. The fact that an ostler and groom  were employed would suggest that there must have been  suffi  cient horses for them to attend. There was also a brewery attached. The feature of brewing their  own beer at old inns indicated a lively trade.

HELP YOUR GARDEN BIRDS

Nature

By Jeremy Eyeons, Member South Lincs R.S.P.B.Group With Winter here, spare a thought for your lovely garden birds  who have most likely given you hours of free entertainment  during the Spring and Summer months. With temperatures  often around  freezing point  they urgently need our help to  survive. Finding food and ensuring that they  eat enough of it to build  adequate fat supplies to store on the body and burn for energy  is the greatest test for wild birds during the Winter and the food  we can provide can be the diff erence between life and death. During cold snaps the ground becomes too hard for birds like  thrushes, blackbirds, sparrows and starlings to forage and probe .

How to Help Our Feathered Friends •

•  •  •

•  •  •  •

If you haven’t  already got one in your garden,set up a bird  table.This can be a base for kitchen scraps, high calorie seed  mixes,cooked rice and pasta and even the insides of cooked  potatoes. Put out hanging feeders with black sunfl ower seeds,sunfl ower  hearts,and unsalted peanuts.These will attract fi nches,tits and if  you are patient perhaps a woodpecker! Ensure a fresh supply of water every day (Do not use any antifreeze products). Thrushes, starlings and blackbirds love autumn fruits such as pears  and apples.If you live in a more rural location these may attract  migrant redwings or fi eldfares into your garden.This Winter has  also seen a record infl ux into the countryside and gardens on  the east coast of that magnifi cent migrant from Scandinavia The  Waxwing. Goldfi nches and perhaps siskins  love nyjer seeds which are small  and black and have a high oil content. Bird cake and other fat based products such as fat balls are an  excellent Winter food and are easily and cheaply obtained. Put up nest boxes to provide roost sites for the smaller birds,who  in turn may repay you in the Spring by using them for breeding. If food turns stale or mouldy on the birdtable you are probably  placing too much out at once.Stale food is a breeding ground for

some types of salmonella which can be lethal.Large quantities of  food scattered on the ground can attract vermin-so be sensible  with what you leave out. You may witness a fl urry of activity early morning and late afternoon  so be selective when you put food out. Finally ,it is important to  continue to feed the birds once you start.You may well be rewarded  with seeing birds you have never seen before close up and in your   garden. Enjoy them! The South Lincs.Group Of The R.S.P.B. was founded in May 1987 and is  run by a group of volunteers to promote the work of the RSPB and for  the enjoyment of members and all nature lovers locally.Though based  in Boston,our membership covers the whole of South Lincolnshire  and to date we have contributed approximately £60000 to RSPB  conservation projects,with much of this spent locally in the county.The  Group has over 300 members who receive a regular newsletter and are  able to enjoy a wide range of organised events which are of interest to  anyone from beginner to expert. Please visit  www.southlincsrspb.org.uk  for further information.

Creating a Feature Wall By Sue Hessom of Tidy Interiors

If you are looking to generate the ‘wow’ factor in your room but time and money  constraints won’t allow for a full make-over, then why don’t you just add a feature  wall?   After all, decorating is all about creating atmosphere and impact and a  feature wall can turn an ordinary room into an outstanding one in no time at all.   A feature wall can be introduced anywhere in the house, it’s just down to personal  preference – but consider your location carefully; remember the idea of a feature  wall is to create maximum impact; it should draw the eye as soon as you enter a  room or area, so being creative on a wall that sits behind an open door won’t have  the same impact and you’ll end up being disappointed with the fi nished results!     Once you have your location, your next consideration is the material you are going  to use – wall coverings no longer begin and end with paint or wallpaper so it  really depends on individual tastes and abilities:-   Paint

By Kate Gibbard

The easiest way to create a feature wall is with a fresh coat of paint.  If you have  a fairly neutral colour scheme this is the easiest option.  Just pick out a colour  that appears in the accessories or consult a colour wheel to fi nd a tone of colour  that will complement your style - don’t be afraid to be bold.  You can paint the  wall one colour but create a dramatic eff ect by using a paint with a specialist faux  fi nish i.e. suede.  Or you can add interest by using diff erent fi nishing techniques  i.e. rag rolling.  If you are feeling really adventurous, generate impact by painting  vertical stripes on the wall, just vary the size of the stripes and paint them in  alternating colours that compliment the rest of your décor.  As long as you have  a steady hand, plenty of patience and some masking tape it really is a simple  technique to use for a very eff ective look.

Home & Property w Feature walls are not all about the wall coverings, you can simply add impact by hanging a nice piece of art, or an oversized canvas on a focal wall and focus the attention on it throughout the day by clever use of lighting. Mirrors are also good for feature walls, just make sure the size and frame will provide the impact that you are looking for.

Wallpaper

Even if you want to keep your room fairly neutral you may prefer to use wallpaper  – adding light coloured wallpaper with texture will still provide impact; it will  just be more subtle.  But, if you like colour you can now purchase some luxurious  wallpaper combining rich colours, bold prints and touchable textures that will  create a real statement area.  Don’t be afraid to use your imagination.  The  wallpaper might be too much for all walls, but using it on one wall will produce a  stunning focal point – just ensure you choose the right colours and design – the  last thing you want is to clash with your existing interior.

Other materials

For those who are experimental and into DIY you can be more adventurous and  use beautiful coverings made from bamboo, dried grasses, lavish silks, metallic  or even woven leather.  Reclaimed wood panelling looks fantastic in a bedroom  when placed behind headboards, likewise diff erent shaped/coloured tiles look  great sat behind the sink or shower area in a bathroom.  If that seems like too  much work, why not have a look at pre-printed wall mural.  They are available in a  fantastic range of styles and themes that are guaranteed to generate a real ‘buzz’  with all guests, just search the internet to fi nd a design that you like.  They can be  printed to fi t the full size of your wall, so are perfect for creating a massive impact  on large fl at areas.

Design your own

Feature walls are not all about the wall coverings, you can simply add impact by  hanging a nice piece of art, or an oversized canvas on a focal wall and focus the  attention on it throughout the day by clever use of lighting. Mirrors are also good  for feature walls, just make sure the size and frame will  provide the impact that you are looking for.  You can also  produce a feature using a group of photographs or pictures.   They don’t have to cover the whole of the wall – more  impact will be created if you stick to one area of the wall.   Use diff erent size frames of the same fi nish and play around  with the layout as it will have a greater eff ect if the pattern  isn’t symmetrical.   Whatever your tastes and whatever your budget you can  create a real statement with just a little imagination; the  most creative ideas don’t necessarily have to be the most  expensive.  Sometimes a lick of paint is all that it takes!
