Welcome to your February issue... February of course sees us celebrating Valentine’s Day.

W

e can shower our loved one with tokens of our affection. I once read that “Love” means nothing in tennis, but it’s everything in life.

Songwriters have already been here many times before, and yes, it is indeed a “many splendored thing” and many would agree that “Love is all you need”. Some of you might even remember glam-rockers, Sweet, suggesting “Love is like oxygen” in 1978. This month, I just want to share with you this memorable line from Nat King Cole’s “Nature Boy” and hope that you all have a fabulous, fun-filled February. “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.”

Claire x

Just a few weeks into a new year and we’ve already seen a strong contender for 2022’s “Dumb Advice of the Year” awards. With energy bills threatened to go through the roof as dramatically as heat through a badly insulated loft, energy provider, Ovo, have advised us to keep warm by cuddling your pets, eating porridge, and throwing in a few star-jumps for good measure. Oh, how our border collies squirmed as I leapt up and splattered them both in porridge! Perhaps I should have taken each suggestion separately! On the subject of bills, my friend said he couldn’t afford to pay his water bill, so I sent him a Get Well Soon card. He’s had an awful cold twice this year; I think it’s a case of deja-flu! Anyway, romance is very much in the air in this month’s issue, so may you all feel the love and make the most of the lighter evenings and warmer days to come. Enjoy the read!

Book Review

BOURNE BOOKSHOP 19 North Street, Bourne, PE10 9AE

Bigger Than Us BY FEARNE COTTON In her brand-new book, Fearne Cotton seeks out the insight and advice of wise minds to explore what they can teach us to achieve happiness, connection, and hope. Fearne weaves her own journey of discovery and personal stories with the deep knowledge, ancient practices and emotional tools of renowned spiritualists and thought leaders. Down-to-earth and relatable, “Bigger Than Us” is for anyone seeking a path through our confusing lives and offers inspiration for tapping into the strength and comfort around us and releasing the blocks and insecurities that hold us back.

Again, Rachel BY MARIAN KEYES Twenty-five years after the iconic “Rachel’s Holiday” burst into our lives, Rachel’s back in this hilarious, heart-warming sequel. Back in the nineties, Rachel Walsh was a mess, but a spell in rehab transformed everything. Life became very good, very quickly. These days, Rachel has love, family, a great job as an addiction counsellor; she even gardens. Her only bad habit is a fondness for expensive trainers. But, with the sudden reappearance of a man she’d once loved, her life wobbles. She’d thought she was settled. Is she about to discover that, no matter what our age, everything can change? Is it time to think again, Rachel?

Green Planet: The Secret Life of Plants BY SIMON BARNES

From the richest jungles to the harshest deserts, from the snowiest alpine forest to the remotest steaming swamp, Green Planet shows us that plants are as aggressive, competitive and dramatic as the animals on our planet. You will discover agents of death, who ruthlessly engulf their host plant, but also those that form deep and complex relationships with other species, such as the desert cacti who use nectarloving bats to pollinate. Green Planet reveals the strange and wonderful life of plants like never before.

The Tower at the End of Time Adventurous, magical, and brilliantly funny sequel to “The House at the Edge of Magic”. Nine and her friends have broken the curse on their marvellous, magical House, and are free to travel the worlds once more! Their first stop: The Wizarding Hopscotch Championships. There’s only one problem: the House is nervous about travelling - and gets the hiccups! Bouncing from 4

? n e h t t u o b a l al What’s that Take a brief romantic stroll through the centuries, up to today’s commercial orgy of flowers, jewellery, and chocolates. ❚

In Ancient Rome, February 13th, 14th, and 15th were celebrated as “Lupercalia”, a pagan fertility festival, seen as a basis for a celebration of love on this date.

AD 289 - A Christian, Valentine of Rome, is martyred under Emperor Claudius. While in jail, this priest is said to have converted his jailer by healing his blind daughter's sight. He is later said to have fallen in love with the daughter, sending her a note saying, “From your Valentine”, but this is apocryphal. AD 1601 - St Valentine's Day has entered the popular consciousness to the extent that Shakespeare mentions it in Ophelia's lament in “Hamlet”: “To-morrow is Saint Valentine's Day, /All in the morning betime, /And I a maid at your window, /To be your Valentine.” Mid-18th century - The passing of love-notes becomes popular in England, a precursor to the St Valentine's Day card as we know it today. Early ones are made of lace and paper. 1797 - “The Young Man’s Valentine Writer” is published, suggesting

appropriate rhymes and messages, and, as postal services became more affordable, the anonymous St Valentine's Day card became possible. By the early 19th century, they become so popular that factories start to mass-produce them.

Mid-1980s - The commercialisation

continues: noting the sales effect on chocolate, flowers and cards, the diamond industry gets involved, promoting St Valentine's Day as a time for giving jewellery and so the “tradition” takes off.

AD 2022 - An estimated 1 billion St Valentine's Day cards will be sent worldwide this year, making it the second most cardheavy celebration, after Christmas.

Health

Healthier Relationships

R

elationship hypnotherapy is fast becoming one of the most effective ways to get your relationship back on track. Conflict in relationships is normal, as we are not always going to agree with one another, and it can be healthy for us to challenge each other; it can allow us to see things from the other’s perspective. However, it’s different when conflict becomes a constant presence in relationships, and arguments become spiteful, aggressive with no resolution.

Communicate effectively And it’s not just for couples; it can be used for any two people who are struggling to relate to each other: ● Best friends who may have fallen out. ● Getting over a break-up to move on. ● A parent and child. ● Brother and sisters. ● Working relationships

● A stepparent and a stepson or daughter. ● ‘Toxic relationships’.

Hypnotherapy can help you learn to cope with conflict and manage difficult emotions more easily. It can help you build confidence and self-esteem to help you to communicate more effectively. You become less affected by the words and the behaviours of others, thus giving you the ability to become more tolerant and resilient to the opinion of others as well as dealing with confrontation. This allows any anxiety, anger, or resentment to calm down, allowing you to take control of your emotions and feelings. When you have a better sense of self-worth and emotional resilience, it helps you move forward to achieve a better relationship. So, if you learn how to change your thoughts, you can change your feelings and then you can change your behaviours effectively. Hypnotherapy helps you to do this smoothly and effortlessly.

People often look for the right person, instead of being the right person

welcome the school’s choir to join a service. The children’s singing and enthusiasm really enhances the worship and their parents’ presence certainly swells the congregation!” Family services happen throughout the year, with more details to be found on the St John the Baptist church website.

We visit St. John the Baptist Church in Morton on numerous occasions throughout the year for church services, including Harvest, Christmas, and Easter, and enjoy meeting Reverend Neil Bullen at church and in school. More recently, our children have enjoyed being part of new family services at St. John’s. These services have been designed to engage all ages with craft activities, quizzes, songs, readings, and prayers.

SPORTS MASSAGE... FOR EVERYONE! Words by Lotti Christie

I have always had a passion for sport and loved getting active in any way possible. Throughout my education, I excelled in many sports from football to netball, and even tried my hand at pole vault. I went on to study Sports Coaching at Loughborough University where I took advantage of the many opportunities from various coaching qualifications and sporting facilities. Upon leaving university, I began working at Tallington Lakes where I instruct skiing, snowboarding, climbing and SUPing (stand up paddling!) Throughout my life, I have experienced many injuries and I can fully understand the pain and frustration which these bring. My aim is to help everyone overcome injuries or general aches and live a pain-free life. In the past year, I have worked alongside Bourne Town Football Club providing ‘gameday treatment’ for many of the players.

However, sports massage isn’t just for athletes or people who go to the gym; it’s for everyone! Sitting at a desk all day or driving long distances can strain our muscles, but an hour’s maintenance massage every couple of months can make a world of difference. I offer a range of massage techniques, along with cupping and taping to ensure the best results. I hope to see you soon!”

Face up to February!

T

Well, we are now well into a new year and maybe into a “new you” …. dare I say, an even better and improved version? his month, we have decided to focus on one of our most successful and fastest selling treatments, and one which I personally love.

In the quest for trying to stay youthful and radiant, more and more people are turning to injectable treatments to reverse the signs of ageing - and two popular go-tos are Profhilo and dermal fillers. But even though there are similarities between them, the two are actually very different anti-ageing treatments. Profhilo is the 'acceptable injectable', which targets dullness and all the things we must anticipate as we age, like fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity and loss of fullness. Like most fillers, hyaluronic acid is also the main player here, being injected into ten different points of the face (five on each side) with relatively no pain or downtime involved. Hyaluronic acid has unrivalled moisturising properties when hydrating your skin; with just one gram holding up to six litres of water, it’s hard to think of a better way to give your skin a hydration hit. Over time, the treatment also boosts collagen and elastin - two key components of bouncy, plump, youthful skin. Therefore, Profhilo results in

skin that’s rejuvenated, restored, boosted, and hydrated…just what we need as we age. Even though both fillers and Profhilo involve hyaluronic acid being injected into the face to undo signs of ageing, this is where the similarities stop. Whilst dermal fillers are used for altering the shape of facial features, replacing lost volume due to ageing and contouring, Profhilo doesn’t have any role in volumizing or restructuring the face.

So, what is Profhilo used for? Profhilo is like taking a really good hydrating moisturiser and, instead of slathering it on top of your skin, it is injected into your skin, helping to make it supple and hydrated from the inside. It provides your skin with intense moisturisation and rejuvenation in one hit. Profhilo is a course of two treatments, carried out a month apart, which can last up to a year for some people. We do, however, find that the majority of our clients request to have it every other month, and see it as a really amazing facial. Please come and see us for a free consultation or book in now and let’s get you glowing!

Legal Corner

A New Year And A Time To Review Legal Matters

A

WORDS FROM RICHARD WOOD

few weeks into a new year is often a good time to reflect on resolutions and to review your legal matters. Some clients decide to instruct us on a house move which is a very important step for them. Other clients may be making wills and lasting powers of attorney to protect them, either on their death against the uncertainty of intestacy, or on the many uncertainties they may face during their life. Other clients may be starting a business and may need advice on a lease. Sadly, some clients might need assistance when a loved one has died, and the affairs of their estate need to be resolved. Having a local solicitor on hand can make matters a whole lot easier when sympathetic contact is required. Perhaps clients are thinking of getting married or moving into a home and need advice, should something go wrong. Perhaps a deed of beneficial interest is needed. There are employment situations which can occur, and which can

cause anxiety and require legal advice. Seeing a solicitor or other legal adviser faceto-face during the pandemic has not been straightforward. At the time of writing, it is still possible, but of course, in this uncertain world, there might be further restrictions by the time this article reaches you! Every year can present uncertainty and risk, and legal advisers are there to try to help clients understand and manage that risk. At Double and Megson, our solicitors and fee earners are down-to-earth and accessible and can be seen locally at our office. We are insured and regulated. There are, of course, other parties who cold-call or who tout for business in the street or supermarket. The Law Society (of whom we are members) are very concerned about protection of the public from such cold calling. That is why it is always so much better to see a solicitor in your chosen locality when it is time to review your legal matters.

February Gardening Tips ebruary is not usually one of the best months for weather – snow, frosts, and rain but with the occasional sunny day.

There are several seeds you can sow under cover, in a greenhouse or on a warm windowsill but, before you do, make sure that pots and seed trays are washed out and sterilised to prevent the spread of disease. Also prepare cloches by cleaning the sides with warm soapy water and rinse off. For early crops, prepare and rake level the soil, before putting the cloche in place a few weeks before sowing which will help the soil warm up.

Other jobs for February include: • Make sure winter cabbages, cauliflowers and broccoli are netted against hungry pigeons, whose food supply is a little short at this time of year. • Remove dead leaves from cabbages and sprouts –if they start to rot, they can spread mould and mildew.

When do you maintain your Electrical System?

O

BY COLEEN EVERITT, ALTO ELECTRICAL LIMITED

ne of the most important things that people overlook when thinking about having an electrical condition report is the routine maintenance it does for the system.

We all know how heat expands and cold contracts metal, but a lot of people don’t think about the effect this has on your electrical system over the years, especially if nothing has been done to it for a good while. Often, when I go to a system that has not been tested for ten years or more, connections can often be turned several times before they have fully tightened again, which to me, is a real concern. With loose connections being the number one cause of electrical house fire, this maintenance is crucial to keep your system maintained and your electrical circuits safe. I am often trying to explain to people that an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is more than just a tick box exercise for the insurance company; it is something that can give you real peace of mind. I guess it’s a bit like when you have been avoiding going to the doctor because you think something may be wrong, and when you get checked out and

Domestic

realise you are ok, the relief you get is similar. After completing an EICR, even in times when we have found problems in a system, the feedback has often been that it is much better than the client had imagined, and it allowed these clients to trust that their home is safe again. So, my message this month is do not live in fear; get your home tested, as it most likely isn’t as bad as you think it will be!

Will & Probate Services

The Emotional Benefits of

Writing a Will

ADVICE FROM NICK ASH, MANAGING Director Will and Probate Services

I have been writing these articles in various form for almost fifteen years and, in that time, I must have written dozens of articles about the benefits of writing a will.

I

It was not until I had a conversation with a friend just before Christmas, however, that they pointed out that all of my articles consider the practical benefits of having a will, but none have addressed the emotional benefits which she thought it was worth me touching upon.

She said that the overwhelming feeling when she signed her will was relief - relief that something that had been on her mind for a very long time was finally out of the way and relief that the whole process had been much easier than she had imagined. Other clients have said they had a feeling of security, knowing that all of the loose ends would be tied up neatly when they passed away, and that their family would have certainty about their wishes. Yet more have said that they felt protected, as if making the wills had thrown a big blanket over them and their family to protect them from outside influences. I have lost count of the people who have cried when I have spoken to them; I am pretty sure it is not because I am a horrible person! But having the courage to have the difficult conversation brings out a lot of feelings, so we always have a box of tissues at the ready.

So, whether it is courage, relief, security, certainty, or protection that you are looking for, you can get them by making your will. My friend summed it up perfectly and in just three words: making her will gave her … PEACE OF MIND. If you want to find yours, give us a call on 01778 252301 and one of our qualified professional consultants will be on their way to deliver peace of mind to you and your family.

Go to Court and Risk a Fine?

I

t is widely known that in family proceedings there are increasing numbers of “litigants in person” as they are called, that is, parties who do not have legal representation. The reason is the withdrawal of Legal Aid over the last two decades. Parents in dispute over the arrangements for their children should first have to undergo mediation which is designed to avoid the need for court, but, without the advantage of legal advice emphasising the benefit of mediation, such dispute resolution is often side-lined, and parents end up in court anyway.

Dominic Raab, the current Lord Chancellor, has an idea that parents considered to be abusing the court process by making unnecessary court applications, should face a financial penalty. Mr Raab considers that 50% of family cases that don’t involve domestic abuse should be resolvable without going to court. He is probably right, but the answer is unlikely to be fining unrepresented parents for trying to get their problems resolved. The Law Society view is that parties should be encouraged to instruct Family Law specialists rather than struggle on themselves. The evidence of the past decade is that taking lawyers out of the equation led to fewer cases going to mediation, rather than more, and an increase in cases going to court. With parents acting without advice and representation, they often bring misconceived arguments and irrelevant issues to court. Consulting a family solicitor at the right time can therefore save you money and stress, whilst the resources they can tell you about to help you deal with children issues in a separation could prove invaluable.

February is the season of love and romance – but it is also a key date for fraudsters aiming to steal your money as well as your heart! According to statistics from Action Fraud, reports of romance fraud have increased by 40% in the year to April 2021.

Dating online without meeting in person has become the new normal throughout the coronavirus pandemic. However, fraudsters have duped those looking for love out of an estimated £73.9m during this period. Some seven million UK residents are believed to be registered on dating sites, with Tinder leading the way with online dating apps. However, for many it can spiral into heartbreak and financial misery when looking for “love at first swipe”. Fraudsters trick victims into sending money or gather enough personal information to steal their identities, resulting in financial and emotional misery. Here are a few simple steps to keep yourself, and your loved ones, safe: D Don't rush into an online relationship. Get to know the person, not the profile, ensuring you ask plenty of questions. A Analyse their profile. Protect yourself by confirming their identity. Check the person is genuine by putting the following into your search engine: their name, profile picture (by simply using a reverse image search) and any repeatedly used phrases, along with the term 'dating scam'. T Talk to your friends and family. Be wary of anyone who tells you not to tell others about them. E Evade scams. Never send money or share your bank details with someone you've only met online. S Stay on the dating site messenger service. Fraudsters will often encourage their victims to use different communications channels that are often undetectable. Be confident that you know who you are speaking to and be wary if they fail to meet you in person. If you think you are a victim of romance fraud, contact Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040. For more information on this and other types of fraud, visit www.actionfraud.police.uk FEBR BRU UAARRYY 22002222 FE

Your Finances

Liberty Partnership are delighted to launch

‘The Liberty Lunch’ to celebrate our community champions and those people that go the extra mile

BY RICHARD ASH CHARTERED FINANCIAL PLANNER AND DIRECTOR You may know one of those ‘champions’ who always helps where they can or goes that extra mile for a neighbour, a stranger or a friend, and if you do then we would like to hear from you. Our plan is to offer a modest reward of lunch out at a local pub, diner, coffee shop or eatery up to the value of £100. We would ask that this offer is taken up locally to support our fantastic local businesses. We will select a monthly ‘champion’ from any nominations we receive. When contacting us, we would ask that you say who they are, how you feel they have positively contributed towards our community, and provide their contact information, having asked their permission to do so. Please see this as being a good thing, something to celebrate, a way in which we at Liberty Partnership can celebrate our community. Sadly, we will not be able to recognise everyone, which we hope you all understand.

To make a nomination

Please e-mail us at: thelibertylunch@liberty-partnership.co.uk or write to us or drop a note through our door to: 104 Church Street, Market Deeping, Peterborough, PE6 8AL.

Words from the Mayor

COUNCILLOR PAUL FELLOWS

Every one of us must be ready to move forwards into this, still, new year with hope and optimism that it really must be ‘better’ this year.

E

ver the optimist, but not forgetting the need to still be cautious and acknowledging the sadness and hurt some have had to endure, our community needs to have things to look forward to.

As a community, there are two events this year that we can all participate in. On the evening of Saturday March 19th, there will be “Light Up Bourne”, a new event sponsored by SKDC and organised by Bourne Town Council. All around the town there will be several ‘Light Installations’ to be enjoyed, with some having an element of participation. There will be a road closure on North Street, and everyone is invited to move from one to another and enjoy the spectacle. There will, hopefully, be other attractions in and around the town.

101 102 Morton - BOURNE THE DEEPINGS - PETERBOROUGH Mondays to Saturdays 101s every 30mins throughout the day reduced evening and Sunday service

all Buses call at: Queensgate Bus Sta for City Centre Walton Shopping Park & New England Boulevard Retail Park

201 202 BOURNE - STAMFORD - PETERBOROUGH Mondays to Saturdays every hour throughout the day

all Buses call at: Stamford Hospital & North Street for Town Centre

Co-ordinated by Bourne Town Council, the weekend of Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June will see the whole of Bourne celebrating seventy years of incredible public service. Everyone is invited to participate in any way they wish. Events across Bourne will include the traditional Bourne Festival, (organised by the Round Table), a street market in North Street, a Gala Dinner Dance, a Car Show, and a Parade! Following national guidelines, the whole weekend will begin with the lighting of a beacon. Elsea Park Community Trust are also planning a whole variety of events for the weekend, and we hope there will be several localised street parties across the town, along with ‘well over-decorated’ houses and shops! If you wish to register an event that you want to organise, please get in touch with Bourne Town Council on 01778 426123 or clerk.bournetc@btconnect.com.

Step forward eleven-year-old Ben (“the Spotter”) Potter who has scooped our £100 cash prize in the annual Christmas Novelty Hunt competition in our December issue. Bourne Grammar School student, Ben correctly matched all pictures with the participating shops and businesses around the town. Self-confessed avid reader, Ben intends using the cash to buy more books from Bourne Book Shop, and putting some towards a new laptop. He describes himself as funny with a good sense of humour, who enjoys spending time with his friends. His hobbies include playing “Minecraft”, football, and the piano (but not at the same time!)
