LIFT ACCESS SEMINAR

STEPPING OUT FOR LEWIS-MANNING!

BH Sales & Lettings was founded

by Alan Mather in July 2013.

To raise money for the Lewis Manning hospice, Pippa Leech, Associate from the Savills office in Canford Cliffs completed a 100 meter abseil down the iconic Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth. The tower is approximately 170m, 560 feet tall and she abseiled down the building from a platform 100m/328 feet high. The Spinnaker tower is three times the height of the water tower at Tower Park.

Keith Fensom head of office at Savills Canford Cliffs said “ I am extremely proud of Pippa for taking on this challenge and for raising so much money for such a worthwhile local charity.”

Pippa herself also commented “It was scary, but for a fantastic cause. I am so pleased to have been part of this event and I would like to thank everyone who has supported me and given sponsorship to the hospice which has raised £850.00 so far. The view was absolutely breathtaking and I would highly recommend it to anyone!!! “ The Lewis-Manning hospice provides free care and support for people in East Dorset living with Cancer, Parkinson’s Disease and other life-limiting illnesses. They help people and their loved ones live well for the rest of their lives, however long or short that might be.

The hospice relies on donations and has recently moved into a brand new state of the art facility to expand its day hospice, breathlessness clinic, lymphoedema clinic and provide a bedded palliative care unit. The hospice is set in a stunning location overlooking Poole Harbour and Brownsea Island and they enable people to find way to manage their symptoms and to enjoy now

Having worked in the industry for over 25 years, the dream of having his own business has now become a reality.

BH Sales & Lettings have since enjoyed a fantastic start to the year - completing multiple sales on properties throughout the BH postcode area (as far afield as St Ives in Hampshire).

Alan prides himself on his knowledge, confidence, professionalism and total commitment to the job in hand. He is passionate about every area of the Estate Agency service and believes that the importance of regular and honest feedback to vendors and buyers alike can never be underestimated.

What also comes as standard with the BH Sales & Lettings service is their out of hours personal contact, free valuations, late viewings and a very low commission rate – mostly due to the fact BH Sales & Lettings operates successfully without the costly overheads of High Street premises.

pletion of our purchase I wanted to write to thank BH Sales and Lettings for the excellent service they provided from day one all the way through to completion.

Having spent over 20 years in the estate agency business myself and knowing how poor some estate agent service can be I can honestly say that this was the best experience I have ever received. The key to being a good estate agent is to always keep the client fully updated and to be on hand to resolve any issues that might arise. Alan at BH sales and Lettings did this and more therefore I have no hesitation in recommending him to sellers and buyers alike. Kind Regards.

Further expansion BH Sales & Lettings continues with welcoming Ellis Southam as a bright and promising junior protégé to Alan.

Ellis has a very good knowledge of the local area having grown up here, and has a keen interest in property. He enjoys all aspects of sales and is looking forward to working as an Estate Agent with us.

35 APARTMENTS IN THE PRESTIGIOUS AREA OF LILLIPUT

Pure Town Planning are delighted to announce that they have recently secured a very valuable planning permission for 35 apartments in the prestigious area of Lilliput, near Sandbanks in Poole.

The development proposed the replacement of 4 chalet bungalows with 4 blocks of 3 storey apartments (3 blocks of 9 apartments, and 1 block of 8, housing a mixture of 2, 3 & 4 bedroom units, with penthouses exceeding 2000 sq.ft!). Pure Town Planning were involved from the outset

undertaking pre-application discussions with the Borough of Poole planning officers and then liaising with the architects Anders Roberts, who designed the beautiful bespoke apartment buildings, to work up the scheme ready for submission.

Matt Annen, Director of Pure Town Planning stated “this was a fantastic result for the PTP team and for our client.

During the planning process we were able to successfully convince the Local Planning

Authority that the principle of flatted development on the four plots was acceptable and persuade them that the number of units, the new access and layout, the scale of the buildings and the appearance would all result in a scheme which would sit comfortably in the street scene and would not cause any harm to the amenities of neighbouring residents or the character of the area”.

are looking for a firm who will work tirelessly to steer your development through the planning process then contact Matt, Dan or Neil in confidence on 01202 585524 or email us at info@puretownplanning. co.uk for a free no obligation planning consultation.

The lunchtime event will be held on Thursday 5th June at The Hermitage Hotel in central Bournemouth, opposite the BIC and is aimed at property professionals wishing to accrue Continuing Professional Development points. The focus of the seminar will be ‘Accessibility’ and how to comply with building regulations - whilst paying particular attention to all different styles of Lift Access. It will look at both the domestic and commercial sectors of the construction industry, including the use of bespoke designs to meet these requirements. MC PASS’s guest speaker will be Rob Edwards from Access Lifts who has over 20 years’ experience within the Industry and was the main lift Access Consultant for the Olympic Games. Rob has been involved in numerous high profile buildings throughout the Country during his career and is very passionate about this sector. Mark Cook, MD of MC Plan and Site Services said, “I know Rob will provide an interesting and lively presentation for this technical seminar. He said, “We ask the audience to advise us of subjects they are keen to learn more about and will endeavour to cover as many of those as possible across the year.” mcplanandsiteservices.co.uk

FABULOUS BEGINNINGS FOR BH SALES & LETTINGS

BOURNEMOUTH AND BOSCOMBE LIGHT OPERA COMPANY CELEBRATE ITS 60TH ANNIVERSARY

SWITZERLAND BEAT IRAN IN WORLD CUP CHARITY FINAL

Bournemouth and Boscombe Light Opera Company – or BBLOC as it better known locally – started life as the Boscombe Light Opera Company in 1954 and is Bournemouth’s biggest amateur musical theatre company. To celebrate its 60th anniversary year, the company is delighted to be presenting the south coast premiere of Sister Act at the Pavilion Theatre, Bournemouth from 22 to 26 July 2014.

More than 200 people assembled at Pelhams Park on Sunday June 1 for the Leader & Co five-a-side World Cup in aid of local charity, Lewis-Manning Hospice, raising £1,800 with the help of match funding from Barclays.

The one-off event was organized by Ashley Cross-based property agent Leader & Co, who recruited 26 teams to take part each picking a country name out of a hat as a team name.

Leader & Co played as ‘Chile’ and reached the semi-finals, with the final match played between ‘Iran’ and ‘Switzerland’ resulting in a two-all draw, the latter winning on penalties.

As well as a trophy, the winning team was asked to choose a charity and Leader & Co made a £100 donation, ‘Switzerland’ chose Cancer Research.

Ryan Woolfenden, managing director of Leader & Co and organiser of the event, said, “Considering it is the first time that the event has taken place, we have been blown away by the response not only from the team players but also from volunteers, supporters and local businesses. Leader & Co is thrilled to have raised so much for charity and can’t thank Barclays enough for matching every pound donated, it certainly makes all the hard work worth it.

“It is unlikely there will be a final between Iran and Switzerland in the FIFA World Cup in Brazil so it was great fun way to end Leader & Co World Cup.” Paul Tucker, from Lewis-Manning, added, “When Ryan from Leader & Co first approached us about organising a five-a-side World Cup we thought it was a great idea and we were thrilled to get involved. We are so grateful for the donation of £1,800 and wish to thank not only Leader & Co but also Barclays and everyone who took part, volunteered and supported the event.”

BBLOC’s first two shows were at the old Hippodrome Theatre in Boscombe and following its closure in 1956, the company moved to the Pavilion Theatre in Bournemouth Looking back 60 years to Katinka, the company’s first show in 1954, the production costs were in the region of £1,500, very much less than the current costs which are now in the region of £65,000.

BBLOC is no stranger to blazing a trail of ‘firsts’. Going back to 1955 Night in Venice was our first southern amateur premiere, with the company acting as guinea pigs for the new version of the show

which was still in manuscript.

1962’s New Moon and Naughty Marietta in 1964 were both firsts for the south of England as was a new version of Franz Lehar’s opera, The Count of Luxembourg in 1969. More recently, Thoroughly Modern Millie in 2007 was the Wessex amateur premiere; the company were also the first in the area to stage The Producers in 2010 and one of the first in the UK to be asked to stage Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Whistle Down the Wind in 2012.

The company has hired professional producers for its main shows including the late Alan Carter, Jonathan Kane, Judi Campbell, Ray Jeffery and Martyn Knight. Together with equally talented Musical Directors such as Sam Newgarth, John Stringer, Mike Reynolds and Ian Peters, BBLOC has been truly fortunate in their production teams.

recent are Jack Donnelly who played the lead role of Jason in BBC’s Atlantis, and Matt Jeans who will be making his West End debut in the 2014 revival of Miss Saigon.

Whilst the cost of producing shows continues to increase, BBLOC has every intention of continuing to nurture the talent of the future and delight its audiences for many more years to come.

DREAM HOME

IN THE HEART OF THE NEW FOREST BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED & APPROX 2163 SQ FT

A quintessentially English thatched cottage situated within the heart of the forest within approximately 0.385 of an acre. This charming four bedroom detached property has been completely renovated and extended by the current owners and has immense character and charm with period features, presented in keeping with the age of the property which is believed to have dated back to the 17th century. The house provides flexible and spacious accommodation of approximately 2163 square feet with good head height and natural light for a property of this age. The thatch was renewed in 2006 with the electrics being updated with armoured cabling in parts and new lime plaster, the cottage now provides modern convenience with oak double glazing, renewed bathrooms and kitchen but retains character with Oak engineered wood flooring, latch Oak doors, stunning beams, old style radiators, flagstone flooring and beautiful curved cob walls with deep window sills.

INTERNALLY There is a spacious entrance hallway with access into the sitting room and then onto the dining room, both of which provide log burners, one being gas and there is a built in seated area within the dining room with a study to the side. To the rear of the house there is a beautiful country style kitchen/breakfast room with cream base and wall units, granite worktops, under cupboard lighting, double Butler’s basin, dishwasher, space for an American style fridge/freezer, an ‘Aga’ with a triple electric oven with 6 hobs ( subject to negotiation) and an extractor fan.

Adjoining the kitchen there is a utility room with base and wall units with wooden worktops, a ceramic basin, a water softener, and plumbing for a washing machine and space for a dryer. To the other side of the kitchen there is a hallway with a cloakroom/wc to the side and steps up to a stunning Oak framed conservatory with a pitched ceiling, electric roof vent and French doors.

The first floor landing leads to four bedrooms with the large master benefitting from a luxury en-suite with tiled under floor heating and a double basin oak vanity unit. There is also a family bathroom/wc with a roll top bath and Victorian style shower attachment, separate shower cubicle and marble tiled floor.

EXTERNALLY The property is approached at the front through an automated five bar gate over a cattle grid onto gravel off road parking for several cars with access to a double garage with power and lighting and stairs to a storage area over. There is natural stone paving with lighting, a brick wall to the side and drainage that leads along the back of the property to the landscaped side garden. Steps lead to a large expanse of lawn with a sleeper border, a summerhouse, a shed, a vegetable patch and views over the valley. Adjoining the conservatory there is natural stone patio, decking and a gate leading to the front garden which is mainly laid to lawn.

SITUATION The property is within the picturesque New Forest village of Hyde, one of several peaceful villages in the immediate vicinity that populate the upper North West corner of the National Park. The community revolves around the reputable primary school overlooking Hyde Common, which is within walking distance, and Hyde Garden Centre, where there is also a small shop and Tea Rooms. The neighbouring villages of Frogham and North Gorley are both home to popular public houses, whilst the Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approximately 2 miles) offers a range of educational, recreational and health facilities to cater for most everyday needs.

Communications and access to the wider area are good. The A338 provides a convenient route to Salisbury, Ringwood and Bournemouth and the B3078 crosses the forest to link with Junction 1 of the M27 for Southampton and beyond. Airports are located at Bournemouth and Southampton and direct rail services run from all three principle centres to London Waterloo. The outdoor enthusiast is equally well catered for and with the New Forest quite literally on the 24

doorstep some wonderful walking, riding, running, and cycling opportunities are to hand.

Viewing highly recommended for a buyer to appreciate the immense character and beautiful condition, idyllic forest location, views and size of this delightful cottage, a rare gem in a prime position.

INTERIORS

NAUTICAL ‘N’ NICE

36

Who says summer can’t last forever? You’ll guarantee blue skies whatever the weather if you get on board with coastal chic, which summons up pleasing thoughts of holidays, sandy beaches and relaxed living, no matter what the time of year.

ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO...

SEA SIDE INTERIORS This year, it can still be interpreted as a jaunty nautical navy and white pastiche, but if that’s too predictable and you fear it won’t look appropriate in the colder winter months, there are more subtle takes. You can adapt the style using predominantly washed-out blues for a kick-off-your-shoes beach hut vibe, or opt for sandy neutrals, characteristic of luxury beach houses in foreign climes.

“Coastal schemes should be relaxed and informal, giving the impression of salty air and sandy feet, even if you live in the city,” says David Collinge, managing director at Ian Mankin, specialists in natural and organic fabrics and wallcoverings. “Simple, unassuming and elegant utilitarian fabrics, like linens and ticking, are essential coastal style components which work equally well in country, urban or coastal homes. Crisp, clean

stripes are synonymous with seaside interiors and can be mixed and matched for a breezy summer look.”

Steer a stylish course with help from the experts and a selection of chic coastal buys.

This is the easiest way to get ship-shape at home, as the classic combination of dark blue and white always creates a fresh, crisp, naval effect. “This season’s take on the coastal trend has a very relaxed vibe.

The collection takes inspiration from white wash New England interiors, mixed with a taste of the British seaside,” says Steven Rowe, head of design at Tesco .

“Choose a colour palette of maritime blues, against a neutral backdrop of muted greys or pure white walls, to bring a welcome breath of sea air to any room. A combination of navy blue and cream chunky knit cushions, along with statement denim or tie dye cushions, will create your very own cool, contemporary haven. “Small sitting rooms can seem cluttered with lots of accessories, so less is more where space is limited. Opt for oversized lanterns and a single piece of wall art to create a focal point, without over-complicating the look.”

Seaside Style: Go fishing at Marks & Spencer’s for key pieces. A statement piece of furniture upholstered in deep blue denim will anchor a scheme, and its Wilmslow Sofa, from £1,299, is suitably deep and comfy. Pair it with a Loen

Armchair, £599-£999, in an indigo blue and white patterned Crystal Cove fabric. Appropriately, there’s no fussy detail, just a utility feel, to an Original BTC Titan Light, £259, and if you’ve opted for stripped wooden floors, ensure there’s some comfort for toes with a Cotton Rope Rug, from £109.

Ian Mankin’s fabric range includes Brighton checks as well as classic stripes, from £29.50 a metre.

Shore things: Linea’s Nautical Stripe Table Lamp, currently reduced to £76, House of Fraser; a stunning Sea Bass Porcelain Dinner Plate, £19.95, Liberty. Tesco’s two striking cushions, one proclaiming ‘Life’s A Beach’, £10, and another featuring creatures of the deep, Whale Cushion, £8.

INTERIORS

BEACH HUT BLUES Just because coastal homes are unpretentious havens, it doesn’t mean they can’t look chic and contemporary, and this year’s fashionable interpretation features warm, soft blue sky shades.

and you can key into the uncluttered, pared-back appeal of this look with window blinds, rather than curtains.

A slim blue stripe runs through Harrogate Blue blinds from £69, part of Hillarys’ roller blind collection.

“Seaside and nautical-inspired homewares are always a favourite choice, especially at this time of year, evoking memories of beach walks and holidays,” says Kate Thompson, head of home buying at House of Fraser. “We’ve refreshed the trend this year with our New England inspired Beach Harbour range, which evokes the sunny blues of idyllic summer days. These can be enlivened by accents of red, or contrasted with the more traditional deeper nautical blues.”

Dress a bed in Ikea’s Lisel bedlinen, in a red or blue nautical knot design; Quilt Cover And 2 Pillowcases, £8. No need to jump ship and move to a beachside retreat, simply dress your walls in tiles from The Winchester Tile Company’s Nautical range, which includes charming anchor designs, £10.95 each.

Seaside Style: Walls painted in pale blue shades are known to have a calming effect,

Shore things: Outdoor Life Ring Hanging Sign, £12, Tesco; Antique Effect Oar, £45, and Hanging Fish, £3 (available late May), George Home at Asda. ‘ To The Beach’ Sign, £7.50, The Contemporary Home (available late May).

JUST BEACHY Blend sandy neutrals with nostalgic souvenirs and coastal treasures to give your home a serene seaside feel.

“Coastal chic is a sure thing, a cyclical trend that returns in fashion and the home, year after year,” says Sarah Quilliam, head of product design at blind specialists, Hillarys.

“While the classic and uplifting combination of navy and white screams nautical and is the basis of riviera chic, you can opt for more mellow tones - echoing endless sandy beaches and bleached, driftwood and seashells - with shades of buttermilk, ivory and palest yellow. “

“Alternatively, layer white on white, with a hint of grounding grey or black, for a modern coastal look. There’s no need to always follow the rest of the fleet - cast out and create your own unique scheme.”

Seaside Style:

Shore things:

Marks & Spencer’s Manhattan Small Sofa, £1,499, fits the bill with generous cushions available in Hampton grey and ivory. Its white Autograph Medium Lantern, £25, would make a lovely touch. Avoid a setting drifting towards the bland by introducing deckchair stripes in a Circus Hot Pink blind, from £69, Hillarys, which is more subtle than it’s name suggests, with soft pink and blue bands of colour. Dress the room with suitable accessories, such as a Glass Hurricane With Rope Tea Light Holder, £16, and sand-coloured Crab Cushion, £12, Tesco. Yachting types would love a cream Lisel rope pattern cushion, £9, Ikea.

A carved Curlew Wooden Bird, £39.95, Coastal Home; a Driftwood Wheel, £95, Oka; and a Coral Effect Sculpture, £18, Next.

Dan Wilden Planning Consultant Who decides planning applications?

That is a good question and one which is not always well understood. At the local level planning applications may be granted by either Council planning officer’s or elected local councillors (through voting at a planning committee).

The vast majority of planning applications (thought to be in the region of 80-90%) are determined by planning officers under the delegated powers given to them by the Council. Usually this involves a junior planning officer making a recommendation to be signed off by a manager or team leader before the decision is issued.

The remaining planning applications which do not meet the criteria for delegated decisions must be determined by the Council members usually at a special Planning Committee. These committees are usually held monthly and involve around 15 selected Councillors. Each authority adopts its own delegation criteria so they vary from place to place but typical reasons why a planning application must be decided by a committee include: • A specific request for a committee decision is made by a Councillor for the Ward in which the application lies sometimes called a red-card or call-in (in some authorities the planning officer’s must consult on their proposed decisions to the local Ward Councillors and Planning Committee Chair for a fixed period before issuing delegated decisions); • A certain number of separate objections have been received by members of the public (in Bournemouth the threshold is ten); • The decision recommended by planning officers is contrary to the view of the Parish Council (not all Councils give the Parish this power and most urban areas don’t have Parish Councils); or • The scheme is of particular significance, for example because it is simply a major proposal.

Committees typically follow a similar format. The planning officer issues a report two weeks before the committee with a recommended decision. Then on the day the planning officer introduces the application and summarises the report with the aid of the plans and photographs projected onto a big screen. Then there is usually the opportunity for supporters (including representative of the applicant) and objectors to address the committee. Each side is typically given just three minutes to make a “deputation” (regardless of the number wishing to speak).

The members of the committee will then debate and vote on whether to accept the recommendation. The majority vote is accepted with the Chair having a casting vote if evenly split. Committees can be lively even raucous affairs but more often they can be mind-numbingly dull.

We are increasingly being asked by applicants to attend committee on their behalf to present the best possible case to the members. It pays sometimes to have someone who is particularly experienced to take care of this potentially crucial stage of the planning process. Last month for example Matt was engaged to attend Poole committee to make deputations on two separate applications – both of which the members voted to approve.

ASK THE FUNDING EXPERT

Q A

What is a ‘Shadow Bank’ and how does that describe MSP Capital?

In banking circles, the term ‘Shadow Bank’ is a broad term describing any lending entity that is not a bank - and MSP Capital is exactly that.

Traditional High Street banks are now even more controlled by rules and regulations, which leaves many borrowers unable to obtain the required capital for their construction projects.

This is exactly where MSP Capital can help.

Simply put, we strive to provide our borrowers with fast, flexible funding... that makes commercial sense.

David Capra, Director, MSP Capital

MSP Capital is advantageously positioned as it has the ability to provide a significantly larger percentage of capital to its clients as well as release funds faster and with less hassle than the High Street. It also has more flexibility in its decision-making capacity, for example, being able to spread equity across a number of projects.

Example Case Study 1 A client had the opportunity to buy their premises. They were intiially told by a High Street lender that they could provide a facility within six weeks but were subsequently advised to provide another six months’ accounts before bank funding could be obtained.

However, the client had been issued with a deadline to exchange contracts by the Seller and MSP Capital was able to lend in a matter of days. Ultimately the bank facility came through, but this was six months later.

Example Case Study 2 MSP Capital was approached by a borrower to provide a seven-figure loan for a site with planning consent for 14 units in the South West of England.

The funding was required within 5 working days - the week before Christmas!

MSP Capital was able to visit the site within 24-hours to assess the security, whilst simultaneously instructing various professionals to get the ball rolling.

Due diligence was completed with loans formally exchanged on 23 December, providing our borrowers with a very welcome Christmas present.

To find out how we can help fund your development, contact MSP Capital on 01202 743400.

Bank on MSP Capital for fast, flexible, funding solutions We won’t just say yes, we’ll lend you more Whether it’s funding for development or refurbishment schemes, liquidity assistance or short-term funding, MSP Capital can work with you to create the best package for your particular requirements.

We work with individuals and businesses providing short-term, non-status, asset-based loans from £30,000 to £10 million.

You can bank on MSP Capital for fast, flexible, funding solutions.

PURPLEBRICKS.COM A NEW TYPE OF ESTATE AGENCY

ASK THE EXPERT

James Lavis Local Property Expert for Bournemouth

Tony Peters Planit Mortgages Your local mortgage adviser

Purplebricks is a new kind of estate agent that combines the human face of the traditional estate agent with a unique online platform. It dramatically increases the ease, speed and transparency of communication between buyer and seller, and landlord and tenant, while still providing expert guidance and help throughout the process.

Our Local Property Experts will visit your property and give you a detailed valuation free of charge. They will provide professional photography, floorplans, and written descriptions that will be used to prepare your advert for the major property websites sites such as Rightmove, Zoopla and PrimeLocation. We will be with you every step of the way from valuation to completion, and there will always be someone at the end of a phone 24/7.

You’ll also have access to an online platform that includes a live diary so that buyers or tenants can book viewings instantly, at a time when you’ve said it is convenient to you.

You can see offers the moment they come in and you decide whether to negotiate directly or via your Local Property Expert.

We think this is a better way to sell or let your property and it’s more convenient for buyers and tenants as well.

James Lavis, Local Property Expert for Bournemouth says:

“I have been in estate agency in Bournemouth for 14 years and lived in the area since 1994, this is the most exciting development I have seen since the introduction of property portals like Rightmove. Quite simply we want to give you more control over the process of selling your property while still supporting you on a local level. Because I am based in Bournemouth I can give advice and help whenever needed and provide a better value service.”

Interest only? Are you worried about what you are going to do at the end of your term?

There was a time in the not too distant past where interest only mortgages without a payment vehicle in place were a good idea.

The theory was that the price of your property would rise to the point where, upon retirement, you could sell your large home and downsize to a smaller property without a mortgage. Property prices were doubling every 7 years and we all felt that it would carry on forever.

Then came the biggest financial crisis for several generations.

Property prices are only just catching up with 2006 levels and who can guarantee that they will be a great deal higher in the future?

The number of lenders who will lend interest only on a residential mortgage these days is less than a handful and the criteria are very tight. This may be a pre-emptive move as perhaps prices will not rise as they have done previously.

You have to have a minimum of £150,000 equity in the property in order to qualify for interest only now, which in reality is a good thing.

If you are downsizing, that sort of sum will get you something like a two bedroom flat or possibly a 2 bed terraced house.

If you are on interest only and have less than £100,000 of equity and only a few years left on your mortgage term, you have to do something and do it quickly.

There are solutions to the problem but you have to start addressing them immediately. No more heads in the sand.

Overpay if you can. As little as £100 per month over 10 years can knock as much as £50,000 off the capital owed.

If you have the funds, you could buy another property on a buy to let mortgage and use the rent to pay your mortgage and the growth in capital to clear your own capital.

Finally, you can go on to a full repayment mortgage.

The good news is that with interest rates being at an all time low, you can get yourself a repayment deal which will give you the chance to gain some equity or even pay off the mortgage in full.

With fixed rates starting at 1.74% for 2 years, 2.88% for 5 years and even 4.29% fixed for 10 years, you can move to a rate that won’t jump up and catch you unawares.

And the price? A flat fee of £599 to sell, or let from £75. Both including VAT. Refreshing isn’t it?

We have saved our clients up to £500 per month which they are now using to pay off their mortgage when previously they were worried about their future.

For more information go to www.purplebricks.com or call James on 07905 827283.

If you have an interest only residential mortgage, give us a call today and together, we might be able to keep the roof over your head when you get old.

ASK THE EXPERT Louise Vermeulen Associate Solicitor Humphries Kirk Buy-to-let mortgages and the law These days, the demand for buy-to-let mortgages is on the rise as more people are renting out their properties to tenants as a way of increasing their income. Few people are aware, however, that, as a buy-to-let landlord, there are a number of legal considerations which you have an obligation to take seriously, or you could run the risk of breaking the law.

Louise Vermeulen, Associate Solicitor at Humphries Kirk, gives the following hints and tips to House Magazine about the legal responsibilities you face as a buy to-let landlord and why seeking the help of a solicitor could save you time and protect you from unexpected pitfalls along the way; 1. You must inform your mortgage lender that you are intending to rent out the property. If you are converting your mortgage from owner occupier to buy- to- let status, it is highly likely that you will have to pay an administration fee.

You will also need to inform your insurance company as you may need a different policy.

2. When you receive a deposit from your tenant, that money does not technically belong to you unless it is granted that it should be used. Tenancy deposit schemes were introduced in 2007 to establish a clear agreement between a tenant and their landlord to ease dispute resolution if any happen to arise. The deposit needs to be lodged in accordance with the rules of a scheme.

3. You are legally obliged to provide proof that the property is safe and that the tenants won’t come to any harm for the duration of their tenancy. This includes the provision of a Gas Safety Certificate. This is obtained by employing a registered technician to check your boiler. You will also need to hire an electrician to test all appliances and ensure your furniture adheres to fire regulations.

4. Energy Performance Certificates have been required on all rented properties since October 2008. This is an assessment of the heating, water, insulation, construction and energy efficiency capabilities of a property and is valid for 10 years.

5. If you are renting out your property to at least three tenants who live together under one roof and share a toilet, bathroom and kitchen facilities with other tenants, the property may be classed as a House in Multiple Occupation and a licence may be required.

For more information and further assistance on becoming a buy-tolet landlord, please contact Louise Vermeulen on 01202 421 111 or email l.vermeulen@hklaw.eu

ASK THE EXPERT Jeremy Clarke Belvoir Lettings Christchurch Rents what’s been happening since the Credit crunch?

It might surprise some readers that the average rent, that tenants have had to pay for a property in Christchurch, is only 6% higher than the previous peak of 2008. After Autumn/ Winter of 2008, throughout the UK, there was a major dip in the rents that were being achieved of around 10% to 15%.

However, in Christchurch, that dip was only around 5% and since 2010 and the credit crunch, rents have steadily risen by around 1.5% to 2% a year and by 2013 rolling into 2014, a lack of decently presented stock available to rent means rental averages are, in the main, continuing to rise.

Looking at this in greater detail, the average rent in Christchurch in 2008 was £804 per month. In 2009, this dropped to £766 per month (a 5% drop as mentioned above).

Rents steadily rose in the next two years and it took until 2012 until rents broke the 2008 peak, reaching £831 per month. Rental levels are primarily driven by affordability and therefore by tenants wages. That is why in rents stagnated in 2013 at £832 per month in the town because of the squeeze on Christchurch wages.

However, due in part to the demand of tenants from Bournemouth who are happy to commute, there are still plenty of tenants willing to pay for well maintained properties in nice locations, and as we find ourselves over a third of the way into 2014, with wage rises coming through for some tenants and the extra demand from people willing to commute to Bournemouth, the average rent in Christchurch has risen to £852 per month (a decent rise of nearly 2.5% year on year).

From a landlord perspective, the steady rise in rents is good news, as ideally rents need to keep up with inflation to maintain investment returns. With yields of around 4% a year in the town and property prices in Christchurch also rising by 15.7% in the last 5 years (after the large fall in 2008 after the credit crunch), maybe Christchurch could be one of the few areas across the UK where it might be possible to secure capital growth returns and potentially higher income (yields) in the future.

The new flexible working rules: Are you ready?

Superstrike V Rodrigues Update

On 30 June 2014, the law concerning how an Employer deals with a request for flexible working changes.

Currently, only certain Employees can apply: those who have children under the age of 17 (18 if a child is disabled) or who are carers. From 30 June, the right is extended to all Employees.

In April 2007 any new Aassured Shorthold Tenancy where a deposit was taken, must be placed in a relevant scheme and be protected. Failure to do so would result in the Section 21 notice not being recognised in a court of law and the landlord being fined between 1 and 3 times the deposit given plus the deposit.

However, an Employee must have been employed for at least 26 weeks and only one request can be made in any 12 months.

The Superstrike v Rodrigues case in 2013 was significant because the tenants

From 30 June, the Employer must consider the request in a ‘reasonable manner’ and has 3 months in which to decide. This can be extended by agreement.

ACAS has published a draft code that Employers should follow. The key points are:

The landlord issued a Section 21 notice in 2011 requesting the property back

1. Consider the request when you get it. Arrange to talk to the Employee as soon as possible. Tell the Employee that they can be accompanied by a work colleague at a meeting or appeal. Try and meet to discuss the request in private.

2. Inform the Employee of the decision in writing as soon as possible.

protected the Deposit as well as issuing the prescribed information.

3. If the Employee’s request is granted, or with modifications, discuss with the Employee how and when the changes might best be implemented.

This caused mayhem in the lettings industry, as many people had assumed

4. If the Employee’s request is rejected, ensure that the rejection is for one of the permitted business reasons and allow the Employee to appeal it.

5. Consider and decide on all requests, including any appeals, within a period of three months, unless an extension is agreed with the Employee.

Practical Points: 1. Policy: Now may be an ideal time to review your existing policy on flexible working, or to introduce one. Laceys can provide a suitable policy.

2. Be prepared: Consider how you or your managers will deal with a flexible working request. Don’t wait until the changes happen to think about this.

3. Training: If you or any of your managers need an update or training on flexible working or any employment law issue, contact Laceys.

had commenced a 12 month tenancy in January 2007 (3 months prior to the when their fixed tenancy came to an end in January 2008 they remained in the property on a Statutory Periodic Tenancy (SPT).

and this was when the tenants argued it was not valid as the their deposit

The judge correctly pointed out that when it rolled over into the SPT a new tenancy had indeed commenced and therefore the landlord should have

that a rollover of a tenancy was a continuation of the original tenancy.

All tenancies that had commenced after April 2007 and the deposits had been protected correctly, the landlords were now in breach of the tenancy deposit law for not having re-protected the deposit and reissuing the prescribed information if their tenant had gone into a rollover!

This in turn created numerous websites popping up with a ‘no win, no fee’ for tenants to pursue quite often good landlords!

Well, I am pleased to say there is an amendment to the Deregulation Bill 2004 going through now, stating when a fixed tenancy ends and rolls into an SPT, the need to re-protect the tenants deposit, serve the Prescribed information and protection certificate again will end when the bill receives Royal Assent – expected to be this summer.

However, warning to the landlords who have taken a deposit from a tenant prior to April 2007 and as of yet you have not protected the deposit, you will have 3 months from the commencement of the Deregulation Act 2014 to protect the deposit. If you are holding any form of deposit from a tenant under an Assured Shorthold tenancy – it must be protected, no matter when you

received it.

I will keep you updated on this for when it goes through, however, my advice for the time being is to continue reissuing the documents if you have a tenancy due to go over to a rollover between now and then.

I also want to clarify, if you renew your tenant into a new fixed tenancy, you must still re-protect the deposit and re-issue the certificate and prescribed information.

ASK THE EXPERT Steve Isaacs, Director Baileys Estate Agents You can change your mind on the Agent you choose!

Veronica Strongman (Sales & Lettings Director), Des Simmons (Managing Director), Anita Smith (Holiday Lettings Director)

Did you know that as of Friday 6 June the cooling off period having signed an agency agreement is being increased from 7 to 14 days.

Many people are unaware that having signed a contract in your own home following a visit from an estate agent, you have a statutory period of 14 days in which you are able to change your mind. With more and more agents trying to charge an upfront fee for ‘marketing’ it is an important change to protect the home owner.

Many of the vendors I speak with are unaware that they have any cancellation period at all as it is evident many agents do not advise their clients of this piece of information. Putting you in control and ensuring you are not pressured into taking an agreement you are not happy with is part of the reason for this change.

The only exception to the cooling off entitlement is if you sign the agreement in the agents office. This will apply to both sales and letting of properties, however, even if you have signed in an agents office there are still circumstances in which you would be entitled to the cooling off period.

Unscrupulous agents should be aware that they are acting outside of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (CICAR), by not providing a cancellation notice. Baileys Estate Agents does not charge any upfront fees, and only charge a very competitive fee on completing a successful sale.

Baileys has also always provided its vendors with the statutory cooling off notice when an agency agreement is signed to ensure compliance.

How will it affect me?

The doubling of the cancellation period from 7 to 14 days should help to protect all vendors. Many agents promise the earth to obtain a signature on a contract and then have you trapped for months with an agent providing no service. You should be able to make a better judgement of the agent over the first ten days, knowing you have the ability to cancel if you need to.

You can judge the quality of the photography and presentation of your property on the internet portals. The online marketing of your property is the key thing to attract interest with over 95% of property searches starting online.

The professional and upfront agents will have nothing to fear.

Here at Baileys we have always put our vendors first, with no upfront fees, high quality photographs taken with professional photography equipment, 1% plus vat sole agency fees make us the discerning vendors choice. Call on 01202 893939 for your free, no obligation valuation.

ASK THE EXPERT Bournecoast Property Agents Why is Buy-to-Let so Popular as an Investment Option?

It has recently been stated that typical landlords rake in twice the UK average salary in rental income.

Ryan Bembridge fromMortgageIntroducer.com tells us that gross annual rental income in the UK averaged almost £60,000, over twice the typical yearly pay of £27,174.

Phil Rickards, head of BM Solutions, said: “It’s easy to see why people are attracted to the Buy-to-let market; it offers a tangible investment which can provide the long term returns that some other assets won’t.

“For those people considering the opportunities that this market presents it is however important to understand the financial and legal commitments being a landlord brings and to ensure that you undertake the right level of research and due diligence to increase your chances of success.”

With property portfolios generally comprising of eight and nine properties, two-thirds of landlords rely on buy-to-let funding through mortgages when making a purchase. Landlord confidence is on the rise, as six in 10 (61%) are confident on the prospects for buy-to-let, up from 54% over the same period last year, while optimism regarding capital gains rose from 27% to 49%.

At the same time confidence among mortgage intermediaries is at its highest level since the beginning of 2008, according to Paragon Mortgages. The specialist buy-to-let lender has conducted a panel survey since 1995 which tracks confidence among brokers. The confidence index for the first quarter of 2014 is at 104.7, its highest level since the start of 2008. There has been a marked improvement in confidence since the start of 2013, when the index stood at 87.2.

Confidence peaked during 2007, when the index reached 147.6, and dropped to its lowest level in Q3 2010, reaching 63.0.

Over the past quarter the average UK rental yields increased by 0.2% to 6.2%, remaining relatively unchanged from 6.1% over the last 12 months. Eight in 10 (78%) landlords view their property as their pension, while 64% consider themselves as ‘professional’. One in three however do not have an exit strategy, financial or business plan or a formalised growth strategy in place.

If you are considering buy-to-let as an investment option the recommendation is to work closely with a local buy-to-let specialist agency, who will be able to guide you on which property to invest in, what the expected rental returns will be and what yield you can expect.

INTERIORS

ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO...

BOTCANICAL INTERIORS Whether your taste is for exotic blooms, pretty posies or a scattering of country flowers, they should be blossoming on walls, or at the very least, on accessories.

“Florals have made a big comeback in interiors as people move away from minimalism,” says interior designer Joanna Wood (www.joannawood.co.uk).

“They are an enduring favourite in decor with their colour and beauty, but to interpret them in a fresh, contemporary way, the use of bright vibrant colour is key - especially bold pinks, aquas, turquoise and bang on trend deep, dark blues.

“A particularly striking way to follow the trend is to let one statement piece, such a sofa or chair, curtains or perhaps a paper on a feature wall, dazzle.”

136

Anything can be a catalyst for for an interior scheme, and you could be inspired by the glorious displays at the highlight of the gardener’s year, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Luckily, there’s no need for green fingers to have home-grown florals - just follow the advice of the experts for fresh-as-adaisy settings

Bright & Beautiful While a bold shade, like red, coupled with a strong floral pattern isn’t a combination for the faint-hearted, this duo can make a real impact. “Tired of the quiet neutralism of the recession, we’re once again waking up to the idea of experimenting with bold colours,” says Mike Constable, managing director of JAB international furnishings.

“Big bold prints, inspired by painterly florals and the catwalk, are making their way back into the home. One bold piece can make a room really pop, and then you can neutralise the bright colours with natural tones in the rest of the room.”

“One of the bonuses of using a strong, warming shade like red, is that it will look just as appropriate in the winter as in the summer.”

Flower Power: Gardisette fabrics by JAB Anstoetz are irresistible, as long as you’re not a shrinking violet. Choose from Bella, a large blossom print, or Lisa, with its delicate floral tendrils, both £22.70 a square metre. If you’re seeking a statement furniture piece, an Alpine Chair, currently reduced to £639,

Multiyork, would certainly attract attention. For an instant floral revamp, add new accessories, such as a Botanic Cushion, £59, BoConcept. The new Tulips design from Royal Crown Derby is so appropriate and a dinner set would make a splash on any summer table. Tulips Plate, £85.

Floral Tip: Consider the type of flowers in the print design and the impression they will create: English roses conjure a traditional, homely feel, which pairs well with white painted furniture, while bird of paradise blooms and hummingbirds offer a touch of the exotic, complemented by dark, lacquered woods.

Blooming Blues

Flower Power:

Pretty in Pink

Flower Power:

Blue is the decor colour this year and deep sky, azure, cobalt or navy floral patterns, paired with white, will look crisp and uplifting. “Petal-powered prints are very much in demand this year,” says Kate Tansley, creative director at Multiyork.

Bring on the blues with Blue Rose wallpaper, from £40 a panel, Digetexhome, which would especially suit a kitchen or dining area. Radio and TV presenter Fearne Cotton has impressed with her interiors range for Very, and her Melrose Blossom Accent Chair, in blue, £599, is one of her best pieces. Butterflies are enjoying as much popularity as florals and you can pick up on both trends with a Butterfly Beaded Cushion, £15, Sainsbury’s.

Pretty up a table with V&A Garden Birds Fine Bone China Mugs, £11.99 each, from The English Table, and set them on a striking blue floral Tray Boudoir, £45.99, Triitme.

Formerly confined to girly interiors and children’s rooms, pink is enjoying a renaissance thanks to our confidence in using bolder versions of the shade, rather than simply the sugary pastels, and it’s perfect with florals. “The floral trend is great for adding colour and vibrancy to a room, but to avoid this style looking chintzy, choose bold, modern prints in vivid colours, such as candy or hot pink,” says Claire Hornby, interior stylist at Barker & Stonehouse.

If full-on floral’s too much but you want to pay a nod to the trend, a Graham & Brown Hot Pink Midsummer Wallpaper, £12.50 a roll, Debenhams, is striking, with its leaf silhouette design in a matt and shine finish. Alternatively, a cascade of blooms on a deep pink background is a winner; Flirty Floral wallpaper panel, £40, DigetexHome. There’s a fashionable painterly effect in Marks & Spencer’s Watercolour Floral fabric, an upholstery choice available for its Maisie Armchair, from £749. For chic contemporary touches, add a Fearne Cotton Fleur Cushion, £15, Very, and Floral Mugs, four for £4, Asda. For a more country cottage look, a Hydrangea or Magnolia Cushion, £39.50 each, Karenza & Co, and Gisela Graham Flourish Floral Jugs, £9, £15, and £23 each, The Contemporary Home, could appeal. Vintage Rose Tray, £22.50, Joanna Wood.

“It reflects our desire to bring the outdoors in, and nature-inspired designs are enormously popular.

Florals are classic and there are all sorts of colourways and prints to appeal to everyone, with blue one of the stars of the show this year.

Complement a floral print on sofas and chairs with single colour scatter cushions and throws.”

Floral Tip: Cramped rooms require smaller prints on wallpaper, while larger rooms can take bigger scale patterns. As an alternative, consider floral stencils or wall stickers. A Vintage Inspired Floral Wall Sticker, £24, Not On The High Street. FLORAL SNIP: Rosalie Teacup And Saucer, £10, and Rosalie Bowls, from £5 each, Oliver Bonas.

“Whether you opt for tropical prints or wild flowers, this is a versatile trend that’s here to stay. For a contemporary look, the rule to follow is ‘less is more’ - several punchy flower patterns will often be enough. If your taste is more traditional, follow a colour theme and mix up the scale of the patterns, both large and small, which will avoid a dated ‘matchy-matchy’ look.”

IS YOUR BEST KEPT SECRET IN THE BEDROOM? It is well-known that sleep is a vital part of a healthy life, promoting a well-being both physical and mental, and accumulated lack of sleep can have serious implications on our health. larger and more complex designer kitchens

The recommended amount for an adult is between 7.5 and 8.5 hours uninterrupted sleep a night. But how many of us actually enjoy that amount of sleep and wake in the morning refreshed and ready to take on the day?

The term ‘Beauty Sleep’ exists for a good reason - it is no myth that too little shut-eye leads to lacklustre and wrinkle-prone skin.

According to scientific research, those who had poor quality sleep for at least a month had more fine lines, uneven pigmentation and slacker, less elastic skin than good sleepers. (Skin Study Centre at University Hospitals Case Medical Centre, Ohio, July 2013).

Because sleep is as important to our health as nutrition and exercise The Sleep Council has issued sleep guidelines and recommends we do all we can to ensure a good night’s sleep. These include avoiding alcohol and caffeine before bedtime, avoiding looking at computers and personal devices before sleep, and also investing in a good bed.

Research has shown that sleeping on an uncomfortable one could rob you of up to an hour’s sleep a night!

The collection of mattresses and divans

by Millbrook Beds are meticulously crafted to deliver the most perfect night’s sleep - which is your best-kept secret to looking and feeling gorgeous every day!

THE ULTIMATE IN SLEEP LUXURY

TRULY BESPOKE

Traditionally handmade in the UK for almost 70 years, Millbrook Beds use only the finest materials to ensure the maximum comfort; from sumptuous pashmina, to soft silk and pure new lambs wool; and employ traditional hand-finishing to make each Millbrook product a classic, essential piece of furniture to treasure and enjoy night after night.

Millbrook Beds brings together everything which makes a handmade bed special. Compliment your mattress choice and enhance your bedroom by choosing from a selection of designer headboards and luxurious fabrics.

THE SECRET OF THE MOST COMFORTABLE NIGHT’S SLEEP

After all, we spend over 20,000 hours lying on our bed during its lifespan so it’s worth taking a little time to make it look as well as feel perfect!

Ultimate support for the whole body, alignment of the spine and total relaxation of the muscles is the key. The secret of the most comfortable night’s sleep lies in the hand-nesting of individual pocketed springs in all Millbrook Beds. The pocket spring is at the heart of all top quality sprung beds and each spring is placed into its own individual pocket and sewn all around to isolate it from its neighbours, ensuring no ‘roll-together’.

A SAFE BED FOR HOTELS Spend the night at Cary’s Manor, Lyndhurst, Limewood in Brockenhurst or in any of the New Forest Hotel Group and you will sleep on a Millbrook bed. It’s hiding its identity away under the covers, so you may not realise it is there...until you lie down.

In fact, many hotels, guest houses and B&B’s choose Millbrook beds because they not only appreciate a happy well-rested guest but they also have peace of mind that all Millbrook mattresses and divans conform to the British Fire Regulation Standards having been fully tested in the company’s Fire Test Facility.

Refurbishing your kitchen

Contact us now to find out more

For many people, replacing the kitchen cupboard doors is actually a better solution than having an entirely new kitchen created from scratch. If you’ve got quite attached to the layout of your kitchen and find that it works for you, then why change it? Of course, if it’s showing signs of wear and tear or you just fancy a new look you may want to give it a bit of a makeover, and that’s where replacement kitchen doors come in. As well as creating far less work and upheaval, a refurbishment is surprisingly affordable and fast to accomplish. We work with the units you already have to create a whole new look.

REACHED BOILING POINT?

DIY EXPERT Get those jobs done with a little help from ‘Big Al; our resident DIY expert.

THIS WEEK: HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT TYPE OF BOILER TO SUIT YOUR HOME’S NEEDS. If the current warm weather and the swathes of blooming flowers are any indication, spring is definitely here.

But does that mean you can put up with an old boiler?

Can you just switch the heating off and forget about any problems until the nights draw in again?

No, it doesn’t.

A boiler that’s 15 years old or more is only around 60-70% efficient, meaning as much as 30p-40p of every pound spent on heating and hot water is wasted. Many older boilers also have a standing pilot light, which can cost around £50-£60 a year to keep going.

“Updating to an A-rated condensing boiler could make your heating system up to 90% efficient, so it’s well worth considering,” says Martyn Bridges, director of technical support at Worcester, Bosch Group.

The size of your home, especially the number of bathrooms and shower rooms, and how much heating and hot water your family uses will largely determine your choice of boiler, of which there are three main types: system, regular, and combination (or combi). But which is right for you?

“You don’t have to replace your boiler like-for-like though,” continues Bridges.

“Replacing a dated floorstanding model is an ideal opportunity to get the boiler off the floor and free up some space for more cupboards or worktops. And if you choose a combination boiler, there is no need for a hot-water cylinder.

If the cylinder was in the bathroom, you may even free up enough space for a walk-in shower.”

Also, with a combi, you heat water on demand, so you only pay for what you use, and deliver it at mains pressure.

While combis are ideal for

homes with one bathroom or shower room, they can also be suitable for homes with two, providing they’re powerful enough.

“High-output wall-hung combis are available with outputs of around 40kW and above,” says Bridges. “These offer flow rates almost twice that of some combis and typically deliver 17-18 litres per minute, which is comparable to a hot-water cylinder. Worcester also makes the floor-standing Greenstar Highflow combi, with flow rates of 20 or 25 litres per minute, which is suitable for properties with two bathrooms.”

Unlike combis, regular boilers need a cylinder, which stores the hot water, plus an expansion tank in the loft too. System boilers also use stored water, which allows them to feed several hot-water taps at the same time, making them ideal for bigger homes.

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK FLOOR CARE Period floorboards stained a dark colour look stunning, and it’s a good way to disguise patches of more modern boards. Use Ronseal Diamond Hard Floor Varnish in Satin Walnut (£42.98 for 2.5ltr, B&Q) - it’s low odour, nice to use and dries quickly, so you can re-coat in no time.

As well as being a lovely rich colour, this varnish is designed to resist wear and tear so it’s hugely practical too. A few coats is enough for most floors, but the more coats you do, the more beautiful the colour becomes.

146

Of course, the problem with stored hot water is that you can use it all before the cylinder has a chance to refill, which shouldn’t happen with a combi because it supplies hot water on demand.

“Regular boilers also require more space than combi or system boilers, as they often need an expansion tank in the loft, and are suitable for homes with more than two bathrooms and where hotwater usage is high but water pressure is low,” says Bridges.

“In contrast, system boilers have most of the major components of the heating and hot-water system built

in, making them more efficient and less space consuming, as there’s no need for a tank in the loft.

They are connected to either a mains-pressure hot-waterstorage cylinder or a more traditional low-pressure, tank-fed cylinder.”

If in doubt, ask an experienced heating engineer for advice about boilers, as more than one type may be suitable for your home. And remember to factor in future changes you may make, such as adding bathrooms or shower rooms, or expanding your family - the more people there are, quite simply, the more hot water they will use.

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring.

By Nick Fletcher

PARKING PARENTS ‘SHOULD BE FINED’

NEW BMW X3 In UK showrooms from June and priced from £30,990, the new BMW X3.

Says BMW: “Our new generation of TwinPower Turbo diesel engines provide excellent performance and yet both fuel economy and CO2 emissions have seen further improvements with remarkable results.”

The new BMW X3 can be identified by revisions to its styling, new colours, and revisions to the interior design and trim options.

All models now feature an increase in the amount of standard equipment, while customers can also choose a new xLine model to further personalise their X3.

Almost 90 per cent of motorists support proposals to fine parents who park illegally during the school run, according to Motorpoint.

A new web-based poll by car supermarket Motorpoint found 86 per cent of drivers agreed with trials currently underway by local authorities to use cameras to catch parents who stop on yellow or zigzag lines for more than a few seconds.

A number of councils are testing a CCTV-style Videalert system that would record a vehicles number plate and relay the details back to a control room. This information could then be used to issue fines of up to £130.

Mark Carpenter, Managing Director of Motorpoint, said: “Parking outside schools, particularly during the school run, is clearly a thorny issue for many people as indicated by our survey, with many understandably worried about the safety of their children.

“However, is the introduction of CCTV to effectively police parents dropping their children off at school the answer? Surely we should be looking at alternatives such as designated drop off zones away from the school gates, for instance, rather than just penalising parents at the first opportunity.”

FOOD & DRINK

QUEEN OF INDIAN Most of us love Indian food, but cooking it from scratch - well that just seems like too much hard work. But, it doesn’t have to mean hours in the kitchen, mixing and marinading, promises Anjum Anand.

The British-born TV chef and cookery writer - who was taught to cook authentic Indian food by her mother and many aunts, and whose passion for her family’s cuisine inspired her to launch The Spice Tailor range - is on a mission to bring dishes from the subcontinent upto-date by making them easier to prepare while retaining their rich, spicy flavours. As a busy working mum-of-two, Anand, 42, is well aware that although many people love to cook, they don’t have limitless time to do it - and that’s the theory behind her latest book, Anjum’s Quick & Easy Indian, which is packed with the

recipes she regularly cooks at home for her own family.

“The meals I cook are often simple, with lots of onepot recipes, easy street foods, spice-laced sandwiches, salads and quick curries,” she says. “This book is a reflection of those meals.” She doesn’t shy away from cheating.The book features a detailed list of time-saving ingredients, ranging from ready-cooked rice and pre-prepared crispy fried shallots or onions, to ready-made tamarind and date chutney and pani puri packets and kits. “There are so many products you can buy that will help you cut down

RECIPE

Baked ricotta with chard Ingredients Softened butter, for the tin 2tbsp olive oil 1 1/2tsp cumin seeds 1 largish onion, finely chopped 5 large garlic cloves, finely chopped 150g chard, coarsely shredded

1/2tsp garam masala Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 egg, lightly beaten 500g ricotta cheese Handful of pine nuts

Method Preheat the oven to 190C/gas mark 5 and place a baking tray on the middle shelf. Butter a 20cm round cake tin with a removable base. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick saute pan. Add the cumin seeds and, once browned, add the onion and cook until golden on the edges. Add the garlic and cook for a minute or so. Stir in the chard, garam masala and some salt and cook for eight to 10 minutes, or until the chard has wilted.

Remove from the heat. Beat the egg into the ricotta until well blended, then stir in the vegetable mix. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding half a teaspoon of black pepper, or to taste.

Pour the ricotta mixture into the tin, sprinkle over the pine nuts and place on the hot baking tray. Cook for 35 minutes, or until golden and set.

on time spent in the kitchen.

The only question, really, is how much do you want done for you?” She does as much as she can herself, she says, but admits to using time-saving ingredients all the time - but there’s no compromising on flavour.

“I think it’s better to cheat a little than not cook at all, and find myself turning to easier recipes with a possible cheat thrown in every now and then - life is busy,” she adds. “I imagine most people aren’t that different and look for decent and acceptable shortcuts.”

RECIPE

Goan chicken and chorizo stew Ingredients 2tbsp vegetable oil 4 links fresh chorizo sausages, sliced 1 large onion, finely chopped 15g root ginger, peeled weight, grated 4 large garlic cloves, grated 1-2 green chillies, pierced with the tip of a knife 1 1/2tsp ground coriander 1tsp garam masala, or to taste

1tsp ground cumin Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 rounded tbsp plain flour V6 large skinless bone-in chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat 250ml chicken stock or water 1/4-1/2tsp tamarind paste, to taste, dissolved in hot water

Method Heat the oil in a non-stick saucepan and add the chorizo. Cook gently on both sides until the slices release their oil into the pan. Remove with a slotted spoon or fork and set aside. Add the onion and cook for six to seven minutes, or until soft and golden on the edges. Add the ginger, garlic and chillies and cook for one minute until the garlic smells cooked, adding a splash of hot water from the kettle if it starts to stick. Add all the ground spices, seasoning and a small splash of water and cook for 4050 seconds. Stir in the flour and, after a minute or so, add the chicken and stock or water and return the chorizo. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 25 minutes, or until the joints are cooked through: pierce the largest chicken thigh at its thickest point, the juices should run clear. If not, cook for a few minutes longer, then check again. Uncover after 20 minutes and cook off excess liquid if it’s a little thin, or add water from the kettle if it’s a bit too thick. Add the tamarind solution, taste and adjust the seasoning. I like to take the meat off the bone and stir it back in, but I leave that up to you. Serve hot.

RECIPE

Coconut souffle Ingredients

Method

375ml creamy coconut milk

Preheat the oven to 190C/gas mark 5. Put the coconut milk, butter, the 70g of desiccated coconut and 30g of the sugar into a saucepan.

Place over a medium heat and bring to the boil, then cook for a few minutes, stirring all the time. Meanwhile, stir two tablespoons of cold water into the cornflour until smooth. Add this to the pan and return to the boil, stirring. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for five to seven minutes, or until the coconut mixture is thick. Leave to cool. Place the egg whites in a food mixer and whisk until they hold soft peaks. Add the remaining 30g of sugar and whisk until the peaks are firm and glossy. Quickly dry-toast the 25g of desiccated coconut in a small, dry frying pan until golden, watching carefully so that it doesn’t burn. Butter six 150ml ramekins and spoon in the toasted coconut, tipping the ramekins to coat all sides. Tip out the excess. Stir one quarter of the egg whites into the cooled coconut mix. Then add the coconut mix to the remaining egg whites and really gently fold the whole thing together with a large metal spoon. Spoon the mixture into the prepared ramekins and level the surface with a palette knife. Run your thumb around the inner edge of each, making a small shallow indentation all the way round, then place on a baking tray and swiftly put into the hot oven, shutting the door quickly but gently. Cook for 16-18 minutes, or until well risen and golden on the top. The souffles will rise before this time, but need the extra few minutes to cook through.

Don’t open the oven door to check on them earlier, or they may sink. Remove from the oven, place on plates and serve immediately with a small scoop of coffee ice cream and a dusting of cinnamon.

3 rounded tsp salted butter, plus more for the ramekins 70g desiccated coconut, plus 25g more for the ramekins 60g caster sugar 5 level tsp cornflour 3 large egg whites Good-quality coffee ice cream, to serve A little ground cinnamon, to serve

Choose exercise that you know you can maintain consistently. Something you enjoy, that doesn’t feel like a chore. Consistency is the key to physical improvement.

Likewise chose a healthy eating regime that you can maintain. There’s no point going on a diet with a view that once you’ve reached your goal weight you plan to revert to eating what you did before.

Incorporate resistance training like weight training, bodyweight work (push ups etc.) into your weekly regime.
