4 Dear Ferndown & West Parley residents, The summer holidays are just around the corner!

Edition 134 Something to look forward to. Whether you are going away or not, we live in such a glorious area that we really do not need to go away, so it is a time of year I most enjoy. On that note I am looking for Debbie & Stephen Corney some good, bright photos with our son Hayden of the area to put on our front covers. Do you have one, or know someone who would love to see their photo in print? Please let me know by phone 01202 894397 or send an email to debbie@dorsetpublications. co.uk. We will of course accredit the person in the magazine, so their name will be in print, on Facebook and online too!

Nellie took us fishing this month and what fun that was. Do have a read. She will hopefully make you smile.

The loyal advertisers are very appreciative of your calls. The index at the back is a quick way to find who you are looking for. If there any trades people you can’t find and need, please give me a call. I will see what we can do to help you.

We do have a Facebook page you can like and follow. Nellie has one too! Just put whereisnellie and FerndownWestParleyDirectory in the search bar and you will find us. The magazines can be found each month there too, so it is an easy way to read the Directory on your phone.

The lucky winner of the prize wordsearch last month was Mrs S Howbridge. Well done to you!

We are hoping the sun shines for June and you are able to get out and about.

Have fun!

Welcome...

Co-op Community Fund Donates Over £10,000 in Ferndown The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation has been awarded over £5000 from the Co-op Local Community Fund!

The Ferndown Gateway Club also received a similar amount so the local community will benefit by over £10,000!

Co-op members have raised over £9 million nationally for 4,000 local causes.

1% of what they spend on own brand products and services goes to the fund and this money, along with the money raised from carrier bag sales, is used to support local projects that benefit the community close to where the members live.

Pete Thornton, Chairman of the John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation, commented:

“We are totally overwhelmed by the £5263 that we received from the Co-op Local Community Fund and extremely privileged to be one of the first good causes to be selected for this fantastic support.

This funding will be used to directly support local young people by helping us to continue to provide a minibus for Ferndown school children and local youth groups. The minibus serves seven schools and several youth organisations, providing opportunities for children to access activities that will enhance their learning and allow them to benefit from out-ofschool activities and sports. We would like to pass on our thanks to the Co-op and all their members for helping to make such a difference to the local community.”

Cloudy2Clear Announce Trusted Trader Partnership Consumer champions Which? have now joined the thousands of customers who recognise that Cloudy2Clear Windows really are a business that you can TRUST. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has received the coveted ‘Which Trusted Trader’ status after going through a rigorous accreditation process entirely focussed on customer service.

Group Managing Director Marcus McGee believes that Which? have endorsed Cloudy2Clear’s long standing

company policy of delivering the highest standards possible at all times. ‘Our service is simple. If your double glazing has misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 25 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Whilst a number of tradespeople perhaps don’t focus on customer care as much as they should do, we make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle.

Locally Cloudy2Clear service the )HUQGRZQ area and

manager Justin Friel agrees that this approach is a major factor in his success. ‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated as both my customers and, obviously a body as nationally important as Which? now recognise.’

So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Justin a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Wildlife News

Talking about Wildlife...

Go Wild in June...

Nature is calling this June for all to join the Wildlife Trusts’ 30 Days Wild initiative.

The challenge, brimming with motivation, wild ideas and examples of activities, has been set up to encourage everyone to get involved with all things wild.

The initiative promotes the improved mental and physical well-being gained from interacting with nature, and aims to increase awareness on how to protect our invaluable environment.

A Random Act of Wildness, the theme at the centre of the challenge, is about making time daily to connect with the natural world, or simply carrying out a small act to help the environment. You can use ideas you get in the pack as inspiration or create your own Random Acts. It’s also about experiencing, learning about, and helping wildlife in Dorset: the smallest act, such as putting up a bee hotel in your garden, can make a big difference to the little creatures all around us. The Acts of Wildness

Pond Dipping

range from creating an urban haven for hedgehogs to being a citizen scientist and conducting surveys to writing a wildlife poem, or indulging in a therapeutic nap outdoors. The opportunities are endless, and the benefits immeasurable, both for you and the environment.

To sign up and for your free pack of ideas, along with a wild badge and a funky wallchart to track your progress, visit www.mywildlife.org.uk/30dayswild. In Dorset, if you are under 18 years of age with a passion for nature, take advantage of being outdoors anytime. Get busy being a shutterbug with your digital camera or mobile, and send your wildlife photos to us for the Pat Dolbear Photographic Competition for Young People, with cash prizes available. For more information, go to: www.dorsetwildlifetrust.org.uk/ photographic_award.html

13 Funerals are a subject that many of us try to avoid thinking or talking about. However, as funerals get ever more expensive it is a subject that increasingly we have to consider.

An average funeral today costs £3897 and it is forecast that in just five years time this will be approaching £6000.

In helping our clients to secure their funeral today the Funeral Directors Fees are guaranteed not to increase whenever the funeral is needed.

As independent funeral consultants we offer a range of funeral plans giving our clients the opportunity of selecting the funeral plan that best suits their wishes and, with a wide range of payment options, best suits their pocket.

By visiting people in their own home our discussions are private as well as confidential.

Finally a word from Barrie Smith of Oratu Consultancy: “During my two years of helping people plan their funerals the greatest pleasure I get is to be told, time and time again, of the relief our clients feel at having planned their funerals.”

Why do people like you ask for my help to secure their pre-paid funeral?

• To ensure they select the funeral that is right for them • For peace of mind • To secure their funeral at today’s prices • To relieve loved ones worry • My expertise and experience, which is free for my clients

If you feel I can help - do get in touch Barrie Smith, Independent Funeral Consultant

Avon Heath Country Park: Frequently Asked Questions Why do you have cattle on the park?

Grazing animals have always been a feature of heathland management. Cattle help to suppress scrub encroachment and to develop a varied vegetation structure, they also help to maintain plant diversity on wet heath, providing niches for now rare plant and animal species on bare ground, and to maintain low nutrient levels.

The cattle we have grazing on North and South Park are British Whites. Our grazier keeps a close eye on them, and can often be seen driving his land rover, followed closely by a herd of cows who know he has food on board!!

Why don’t you have any bins on the park?

The reduction in litter on the park since we took away the bins is staggering! Litter is very dangerous for wildlife, unsightly, time consuming to pick up and expensive to have taken away. We do have a small bin in the Heathland Discovery Centre and the café are happy to take rubbish from you if it is something you’ve purchased from them. Otherwise we kindly ask you to take your rubbish home allowing more of our time and money to be spent on managing the heathland for wildlife.

Why do I need to pick up all my dogs mess, even if its off the footpath?

All dog mess should be bagged and binned, it is one of the most contentious issues on the park.

Apart from the more obvious issues of getting on peoples shoes and pushchairs, adding nutrients to the soil, being full of nasty bacteria that can cause blindness in children we also found that in a recent survey, wheelchair users said they were

put off coming to the park because of dog mess.

It is particularly unpleasant when it gets on the wheels of their chair, which they have to turn using their hands, and which they then have to put in the boot of their car!

Why aren’t there more dog poo bins on the parks?

Dog poo bins are emptied by hand, the bags are loaded onto a vehicle, therefore they need to be sited somewhere with good vehicle access. We try and site them as close to the busiest areas of the park as possible. Most dogs like to “go” fairly soon after arriving on the park, which is why we have one at each car park. The bins are emptied regularly and we are charged for this service, which would then have to be passed on to our visitors via car parking fees etc.

Why do I need to stick to the paths between March and September?

Ground nesting birds such as the Nightjar and Woodlark are completely reliant on the heathland habitat. Nesting on the ground makes their eggs and chicks very vulnerable to disturbance, and whilst humans and dogs may not always trample or damage the eggs or chicks directly, they can easily scare the parents off the nest and leave the contents exposed to predators. We also have all 6 species of native reptiles active on the park at this time of year, sticking to the paths avoids disturbing or harming any reptiles and it is safer for yourselves and any dogs to stay out of the heather.

Digital launch marks the start of this year’s Dorset Art Prize The Dorset Art Prize, created by The Bournemouth & Poole College, was designed to encourage and help to create a broader, more inclusive vision for the arts locally and to actively engage with the community. This year’s Art Prize is looking to be bigger than ever and is now open to entrants to submit their pieces of work.

Last year’s Art Prize saw an outstanding selection of exciting and diverse pieces, with a variety of traditional art practise and digital art. An exciting part of widening the participation of the competition was the announcement of 2 new prizes, the Schools Art Prize and the Community Art Prize. A large proportion of local schools & community groups got involved. The additional prizes of £500 each are given to the school that gives a significant contribution of submissions to the competition and the community group who demonstrate outstanding art as part of a group or individual project.

The theme for this year’s Dorset Arts Prize is “open”. This will continue to allow the artists the freedom to produce work in whichever style of format they feel most confident in.

The tone, mood and subject matter are entirely the choice of the artist. Artists can submit work in any media that is new or recently produced. Students can

enter final pieces of course work from Degree, HND, A Level, Level 3, 2 and 1 Diploma and GCSE.

The esteemed judges are on board again for 2017 and include International Artist and former student Stuart Semple, International Photographer Tony Worobiec and Michael Spender, Museum and Arts Manager Borough of Poole.

Ellie Douglas, Photography Lecturer and Art Prize co-ordinator at the college, said, ‘It was exciting to see how many different schools and community groups engaged with the prize last year , the standard of the work each year becomes higher and the art works more diverse , We look forward to seeing this year’s entries.’

To enter the competition or for more information visit: www.thecollege.co.uk/artprize

The Adventures of Nellie

The Dorset Publications Camper Van Nellie took us fishing! This was another new experience for Nellie and she was rather excited. Grandma however was not so thrilled. Having been a fisherman’s wife for over 50 years the thought of one more day by the water was not so inspiring. I am sure any ladies out there with husbands who love to cast a line, will understand her reaction. When Dad proposed to Mum in 1962 he did add… “But I do go fishing…” Mum has never lived it down.

As a child, nearly every Sunday of the fresh water fishing season, I loved to go to the ponds with Mum and Dad. Picnic in hand of course. Later when my sister was born, she was less enthralled and used to wonder off looking at the flowers and the birds. She still does that now! My best catch ever was a tench in Ireland when I ‘borrowed’ Dad’s huge rod (I was 13 at the

The boys and some of their catches

Nellie and family after a long day’s fishing time) and refused to let him help me bring the fish in. I was very proud of that one.

Guess who takes after her Dad? So, Nellie was ‘chomping at the wheel’ to get going. Hordle Lakes near Lymington she decided to drive us to. It is a great place for the family as well as the more keen, carp fisherman. With separate lakes you can choose your level of skill. Bob’s Lake has recently had 30 pound carp added to it! Can you imagine getting one of those on your line? Well there were certainly men there who were doing just that. One man was having a cigarette after his line broke… he was looking into the sky dreaming longingly about the ‘one that got away’. Maybe us women should try and understand this more…

We set up in “Tench Lake”. There was a family right next to us and with all the commotion we created I think they wish we hadn’t. Ever had that feeling? Hayden has fished with Grandad many times. In fact when he was only two years old he picked up a rod as if he was 50 and had done it all

39 his life. Funny how children do that.

Now every time we go fishing with Dad we catch fish, and I mean a LOT of fish!

Today was no exception. After two hours of catching common carp, F1 carp (those that have no barbels, are a hybrid and cannot regenerate - I found out), mirror carp, roach, and even a tench that Hayden caught, the fish were literally eating out of our hands. It was so good in fact Grandad taught Hayden the technique of “mugging” or “dobbing” where you quite honestly drop the maggot into the fishes mouth! That is illegal in match fishing of course, but Dad said the likelihood of being able to do that up north near Hull where they live, was nigh on impossible. Hayden (and Grandad) had fun with that. Hayden also learned the technique of using a feeding pot off the end of the rod, tipping the maggots into the water right where the float and hook are. Very clever.

Now Stephen, unlike his son, was not born with a fishing rod in his hand…. He got the prize for the tiddlers and if he broke off once and lost the hook, he must have broken off twenty times. Nellie tried to tell him that it wasn’t a tug of war or a wrestling match. Maybe a light touch would work?

It was all to no avail. The funniest part was when Stephen did get a fish on the hook and promptly started walking along the bank with it, taking the rod over Grandad’s

Teamwork helps to land yet another one

Debbie getting in on the action too! head (who ducked quickly, looking very quizzical), and continued marching along!

Did I laugh. Nellie too! Of course it was another fish that got away and I don’t blame it, it was enough to scare the toughest ones off. We did explain that fish don’t have legs. Poor Stephen. Stick to the day job.

Mum and I had gone for a rest. I thought we would be able to sit there for few hours relaxing, but that was not the case. We were up and down taking photos, videos, making cups of tea, getting burgers from the burger bar and generally keeping the men happy while they cast their lines and had a lot of fun. It was a great day all round. I am still not sure why the two men opposite decided to pack up and leave about an hour after we arrived. Oh oh…

The skimmer carp were fun to watch on the water, the friendly robin sitting on Hayden’s rod, the gentleman who fishes every day having worked in aviation all his life and could talk for England… It is such a friendly place. The weather was beautiful. It is days out like this with the family that make life worth while. Pleasurable memories we can definitely look back on. Nellie was so pleased she was able to help and create such a moment. That is her purpose and what a great purpose to have. Where will she take us next?

Choir’s ‘Sing for Life’ concert raises over £10,000 for men’s health Bournemouth Hospital Charity is delighted to have been presented with a donation of over £10,000 from Bournemouth Male Voice Choir following their incredibly successful ‘Sing for Life’ concert.

After an intensive ten week crash-course, over 50 amateur singers joined the Bournemouth Male Voice Choir to perform at the Poole Lighthouse – all to raise funds for men’s health projects at the Royal Bournemouth & Christchurch Hospitals.

Almost 1,000 people attended the ‘Learn2Sing’ programme’s concert finalé – titled ‘Sing for Life’ – hearing the choir sing a range of songs from classical music to contemporary ballads.

The tremendous efforts of the Choir have resulted in a fantastic total of £10,000 being raised from the concert. All funds generated will go towards new ‘blue light cystoscopy’ equipment at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital’s Urology Department, helping consultants to better identify and treat cancer cells in the bladder.

One of the newly-trained singers, Geof

Bournemouth Hospital Charity’s Debbie Anderson & Sara Armstrong receive a £10,024 donation from Robert Phillips, Mark Burstow and Malcolm Jenkins of the Bournemouth Male Voice Choir

Geof Curtis

Curtis, was treated for prostate cancer at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital and says this played a role in his decision to join the Learn2Sing programme.

“I joined the group because I wanted to learn to sing and when I found out it was to raise funds for Bournemouth Hospital Charity I wanted to help, because – it is no exaggeration to say – the Hospital saved my life,” says Geof.

“It has been an excellent course with lots of voice training and breathing exercises. It’s a really good group of blokes and we were all there for the main purpose of trying to help the Hospital.”

Bournemouth Hospital Charity Community Fundraiser, Sara Armstrong, says the Charity is incredibly grateful for the Choir’s efforts.

“This donation is absolutely wonderful,” says Sara. “Thank you so much to everyone at the Bournemouth Male Voice Choir who took part in Learn2Sing and performed at the Sing for Life concert. It was a brilliant performance and we are so grateful for the £10,000 they have contributed towards our men’s health projects.”

Plant of the month Rose

Garden roses are one of the most popular and widely cultivated groups of flowering plants yet they vary immensely in colour, scent and flower shape as well as growing style.

Rose flowers are available in a host of colours and shades, from bright pinks and reds through to crisp whites; always popular and classic choice for bridal bouquets all year round.

In the garden, roses are grown as bushes, climbers or shrubs yet most garden roses prefer well-watered, rich soil in areas of full sunlight. Adding special rose fertiliser in spring will help to ensure they flower profusely and remain healthy.

Pruning is vital to encourage new growth and is best performed late February to early March.

Gardening Tips

On Your Plot

Expanding your horizons Summer, sunshine and strawberries, June is a truly wonderful month! In this time of plentiful growth we take a look at making the most of your waste clippings by turning them into lovely rich compost to use next year, and also how to make the most of every inch of your space.

Jobs for June :-

• Take off the side shoots from tomato plants to avoid them becoming too bushy and overburdened with fruit. Water regularly.

• Garlic that was planted in the Autumn should be maturing now. Lift when the leaves start to shrivel and leave to dry in a warm spot.

• Keep planting - the moist soil, higher temperatures and long days are ideal growing conditions. French beans, courgettes and salad crops can all be sown now.

• Watch out for pests! Think about protecting brassicas before caterpillars start to become a problem.

Every year it amazes me how the plants respond so dramatically to the arrival of the warm weather.

Anything sown or planted out in May seems to positively leap out of the ground and shoot skywards, in many cases quickly catching up with earlier sowings!

Of course the lawn is no exception and if you don’t already have a composting system in place then why not set one up now and make use of some of those endless grass clippings? Ideally you want to have two (or even three) compost bins so that when one is ready to use for the garden you have another filling up and rotting down. You can buy allsorts of nifty looking, ready made, compost bins - some even have clever devices that make it easy to turn the whole bin to help the waste break down - but you don’t need anything fancy.

You can just start a compost heap in an out of the way corner, enclosing it with old pallets, or wire mesh wrapped around four stakes if you want to keep it looking a little neater. So what should you compost?

Well any dead organic matter will decompose naturally but you should aim for a good mix of ‘green’ and ‘brown’ ingredients. Lawn trimmings, veg leaves and peelings provide the green element and you should add a reasonable balance of brown items such as shredded paper, straw, eggshells and even the contents of your vacuum cleaner bag.

Turning the heap occasionally will accelerate the breakdown and covering with an old carpet when it is full will also help. Leave for several months and you should have some great compost!

June is also the time of year when it is easy to start to run out of space on your plot. Everything puts on amazing growth spurts and you are suddenly left wondering where you are going to plant out those tomatoes that you’ve been nurturing in the greenhouse, or finding you’ve no room for the cabbages that you’d like to be eating later in the year.

Time to expand your horizons and make full use of containers and of your borders. Look at the different varieties of lettuce and salad crops - many of these, along with cabbages, can add a splash of decorative, coloured foliage to your borders (and be eaten too!!!). Grow bags are wonderful for crops such as tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers.

They’ll be happy in a sunny spot on your patio but do remember to water and feed regularly. Larger pots can house courgettes and pumpkins, with the exotic looking flowers adding a bright splash of colour. Even hanging baskets can get in on the grow your own act! Look for suitable strawberries or tomatoes and you could be treated to a bumper crop of luscious fruit tumbling down from above.

Celebrity Interview:

Miriam Margolyes

By Tim Saunders Retirement is increasingly becoming a luxury of the past. While for some the cost of living is the reason, for others working is addictive and good for the soul. This desire to keep working can be found in all sectors, from scientists (Professor Stephen Hawking is 74) through to business people (Sir Alan Sugar is 69 and Sir Richard Branson is 66). And even in the world of fame.

Seasoned entertainer Bruce Forsyth is 88 while David Attenborough the naturalist is 90.

BAFTA award winning actress Miriam Margolyes is a comparative youngster at a mere 75. She is widely known for her role as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter films. Miriam is as busy as ever, not just with her acting but also her work as a voice artist. “Sorry we’re going to have to reschedule our interview,” she says to me, “I’ve got another job on.” But we’re able to catch up at a quieter moment.

It is a craving for success that drives Miriam to work even harder. “I don’t think I’m as successful as I would like and I don’t think I’m as successful as people think I am. I’m just in the front rank of the second raters as Somerset Maugham put himself. I think I’m hugely talented and I think I have the potential to be great.”

As a voice artist, she has quickly become wellknown to countless children the world over as Weathersnike in Bottersnikes and Gumbles.

Set in Australia it tells the tale of the evil bottersnikes: ugly, lazy creatures whose ears become hot when they get angry. The Gumbles are small, giggly things who the bottersnikes

try to enslave to make them do all their chores.

This programme is aired in both Britain and Australia, a relationship that works well for Miriam because she has divided her time between the two countries for years. In 2013 she was presented with her Australian citizenship certificate by then prime minister Julia Gillard.

And she isn’t as wealthy as some might envisage.

“I don’t have more than half a million in the bank… Some people would say that’s pretty wealthy but I think you have to have a million in the bank before you’re wealthy.” Miriam does own or part-own a few properties, a home in south-west London, a Tuscan farmhouse and a penthouse close to Bondi Beach in Australia.

There are two facets to Miriam that have stood her in good stead. Her eloquent tones ensuring that her voice is familiar. And her appearance making her instantly recognisable on stage or screen. Miriam has a great ability to make any role memorable. Her career spans five decades.

She has appeared in TV programmes including Crossroads, three Blackadders and even an Agatha Christie (2004). More recently she has appeared in Doc Martin and Kingdom. Her film appearances include The Age of Innocence (1993) where she won the BAFTA. Directed

by Martin Scorsese, Miriam played the part of the Countess’ grandmother. The Countess was played by Michelle Pfeiffer. “But the thing that I am most proud of in my life is Dickens’ Women.” The one- person show includes 23 different characters based on or inspired by characters in Charles Dickens’ novels.

Jewish, a Labour supporter and a lesbian, Miriam is her own harshest critic, known for her plain speaking. When she has time, she is passionate about genealogy and politics. “I have got back as far as 1790 with my family tree but it is difficult because records of Jews were destroyed in the Second World War. I also collect political cartoons of the past. It is the past that I am interested in these days.” www.miriammargolyes.com Tim Saunders is an author, journalist and businessman.

He meets celebrities, goes on holiday and road tests cars.

Money Saving Tips

Martin

LEWIS +ROLGD\ %RRNLQJV

It’s cold, wet, and miserable, so no wonder this is the peak summer holiday booking period. However, with the pound recently at a 32 year low against the dollar, and matching the awful rates of 2013 against the euro, this year it’s likely to be a challenge to get a decent price. The weak pound not only hits holiday spending, but hotels, car hire and more, so here are my 10 top tips for keeping costs down.

1. Pocket the perfect plastic to make the pound perform. Spend abroad and most credit cards add a 3% ‘non-sterling transaction fee’ which means £100 of euros costs £103 and some then load other charges on top. However, there are a range of specialist cards that don’t add that fee. So, you get that day’s same near-perfect rate that the banks do, in every country. My top two long term picks, as well as good exchange rates, have low cash fees - the www.creation. co.uk Everyday card and www.halifax. co.uk Clarity. Spending on these is super cheap, usually easily smashing the best bureau de change rates.

Yet only do this if you’ll repay the card IN FULL each month, to avoid the 18.9% ish representative APR. It’s worth noting if instead of spending on the card you withdraw foreign cash and spend that, you will pay interest even if you clear in full, but even with that added they’re still not that costly. For full info on top cards, and an eligibility calculator so you can see which you’re most likely to be accepted for go to www.mse.me/

payabroad.

2. One hotel room can have hundreds of prices. Once you know what hotel you want, always check to see if it’s being sold cheaper elsewhere, use comparison sites www.trivago.co.uk and www.travelsupermarket.com for a wide-ranging search (and always call the hotel to see if it’ll beat the price). The difference can be £100s.

3. With car hire book it early and buy insurance elsewhere. If hiring abroad, generally early booking is cheaper, what costs £10 a day now can be £40 a day when you get there. Here’s the three key steps: a) Do a comparison to find your cheapest. I’d try www.kayak.co.uk, www.carrentals.co.uk and if needed www.skyscanner.net too. b) Check stealth fuel charges. Some try and make you pay for a full tank and return it empty - adding £80ish if you don’t drive far. The above, apart from Kayak, let you filter by fuel policy. c) Don’t fall for their insurance up-sell.

When you pick up a car they’ll often try and fear sell you up to £25/day insurance on top – to cover the large excess if you have any claims. If you’ll pay for this, instead use excess insurance comparison site www.moneymaxim. co.uk before you go and you can often @MoneySavingExpert find a policy from £2 a day. Yet if you do

on a credit (not debit) card which can be €1,000+.

4.

Find best holiday cash in seconds. Just +ROLGD\ %RRNLQJV use my www.travelmoneymax.com site which compares 30 online bureaux to find which gives you the best rates in seconds, factoring all fees.

5. Speedily find the cheapest flights. The obvious start point again are comparison sites. My top picks are www.skyscanner. net, www.kayak.co.uk and www. momondo.co.uk which include most airlines and booking sites like Expedia and ebookers. Yet if you really want to slash flight costs, you need to get clever, such as using ethnic specialist travel agents and checking out airline code sharing deals. For full help see www. mse.me/cheapflights.

6. Don’t forget the good old fashion package holiday. Package holidays are where you usually get flights, hotels and transfers in one. They can still be the cheapest especially if you’re going away for 7, 10 or 14 days in a traditional holiday destination like Benidorm.

Both www.travelsupermarket.com and www.icelolly.com have comparison sites. Then once you’ve got up a price, if you want to shave a little off, you can call up other agents to see if they’ll sell you the same holiday at a cheaper price.

7. Book travel insurance AS SOON as you book the holiday. Every year people email me saying something sadly akin to, “I’m due on holiday in a few months, but I’ve just been given a cancer diagnosis and can’t go, the airline won’t let me cancel, what can I do?” The answer is ‘that’s what travel insurance is

for’. Yet many people only book it just before they go. Waiting defeats half the point of having the cover – which is to protect you in the event cancellation is needed due to illness, a death in the family or something else. Full help on the cheapest policies, including for over 65s in www.mse.me/travelinsurance.

8. Booked EasyJet – keep checking the price. If your EasyJet price drops after you’ve booked it – excluding in a sale – you can just call it up to ask for the difference back in vouchers. Jo emailed: “We got an £803 voucher... all thanks to you.”

9. Check if your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) is still valid. The free EHIC means if you’re in an EU (and a few others) country you can use a state GP or hospital for the same price as a local, so if it’s free for them, it’s free for you. It’s valuable extra protection (alongside travel insurance). Yet it’s not valid for millions, this is nothing to do with Brexit, but simply that it has a valid until date and 5.3 million expired in the last year. Check yours, if it is, go to www. nhs.uk/NHSEngland/Healthcareabroad/ EHIC to get a new one for FREE (don’t Google this, you’ll find shyster sites trying to charge you to do it who add nothing to the process).

10. Be careful boozing on holiday. A final thought. If you’re going to drink on holiday (and let’s be honest, for many people that’s half what it’s about), remember this may invalidate your travel insurance claim. So, take it easy, and if you won’t take it easy, at least think about what belongings you’re taking with you! @MoneySavingExpert

Auto Biographies

New 2017 Ford Grand C-Max

By Tim Barnes-Clay, www.carwriteups.co.uk Ford’s Grand C-Max is a car designed to carry up to seven people safely and comfortably. It’s got all the things that make life easier. Things such as sliding rear doors that mean the children can get in or out without bashing the doors on walls or other cars. What’s more, the Grand C-Max is roomy inside, with a smart set-up that enables the centre chair in the second row to fold beneath one of the other seats, leaving a space to walk through.

I should add, the Grand C-Max Ford loaned me was the Titanium X 2.0 TDCi 150PS Powershift. Basically, I was handed the top of the range version - the one with all the bells and whistles. However, whether you get the entry level or the top level Grand C-Max, its function is the same – it’s a car that’ll hold lots of people. Granted, the third row of seats are tucked away for most of the time in the boot floor, and even though they’re only for kids, they’re still very handy.

There’s also a ‘normal’ Ford C-Max, which is a spacious fiveseater - so don’t feel you must go for the ‘Grand’ version.

On test, I didn’t need to use the third row all that much, so the two spare seats often remained where they were.

This was no bad thing, as without the third tier of seats in operation, the boot stays big. With the seats up, the load area is only good for about three bags of shopping, but with them down, you can knock yourself out filling it up.

Not literally, you understand.

Standard equipment on the Ford Grand C-Max is generous.

It includes Ford’s Quickclear windscreen, sports-style seats, air conditioning and DAB radio. Upgrade to the flagship

Titanium X trim and you get a panoramic sunroof, bi-xenon headlights, a partial leather interior, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, rear parking sensors, and keyless start and entry. There’s also Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system, with an easy-to-read eight-inch touchscreen.

But the best thing is that the Grand C-Max is a surprisingly good drive. I say ‘surprising’ because I was a man who used to dislike MPVs because of their apparent dearth of dynamism. The 2.0 TDCi 150PS Powershift model is smooth and has lots of low down shove. It works particularly well with the six-speed automatic transmission. In fact, it doesn’t drive like a bus – it behaves just like a decent 2.0 litre turbo diesel car should do.

What’s more, it holds the road well, feeling planted on motorways and through twisty sections of tarmac. It’s also got a cheeky punch to it, with the Titanium X 2.0 TDCi 150PS Powershift variant able to do 0-62mph in 10.7 seconds. It’s efficient, too, consistently doing mid to late 40s real-world mpg.

So, I’ve got to say, as a dad-of-three, I’m impressed. In fact, I’m seriously considering buying the Ford Grand C-Max now I’ve lived with it for a while. I just might not be able to dig deep enough for the flagship version.
