WINKWORTH WESTBOURNE REPORT STRONG SALES FIGURES

The latest news storys in your area.

MORTGAGE LENDING THE HIGHEST IN FIVE YEARS, SAYS BANK OF ENGLAND There were 66,735 loan approvals for house purchase in September, the Bank of England has reported. The figure compares to a monthly average of 58,473 over the previous six months.

Gross lending was £15.6m, the highest level since October 2008, and up from £15bn in August.

Brian Murphy, head of lending at Mortgage Advice Bureau, said: “Mortgage rates are at an historic low, with two-, three- and five-year fixes all below 4% for the first time since the recession hit.

Combined with a rapidly expanding selection of products – 10,745 options were available during September – we’re left with the perfect conditions to boost consumer confidence.

Winkworth Westbourne report an extremely successful few months in residential sales in the Bournemouth and Poole areas. Properties of all types have sold extremely well including a strong demand for properties in the £500,000 - £800,000 price range and equally at the lower end of the scale with an increasing interest in the buy-to-let and first time buyer market. Ben Jesty, Partner of the Westbourne office comments, We have been delighted with the increase in activity we have seen in

all sectors of the market over recent months. We are finding that confidence levels have improved, particularly with first time buyers and buy to let investors. The number of first time buyers surged by 30% over the year to September in our Westbourne branch and buy to let investors by 27%. With the introduction of the ‘Mortgage Guarantee’ Help To Buy Scheme, we are confident that these increases will continue throughout the remainder of this year and in to next. We are also finding

that many of our buyers are now originating from London and the Home Counties with Bournemouth being an attractive and cheaper alternative to the London market whilst still being within commuting distance. Winkworth’s strong presence in the capital ensures that we are supplied with many buyers who wish to take advantage of what Bournemouth has to offer and this has helped us secure a number of sales on properties in the £500,000 - £800,000 sector of the mar-

ket and in particular, the second home market. With the ‘Mortgage Guarantee’ Help To Buy Scheme now in full force and the London market rapidly gaining momentum, I am confident that the local market will continue to remain strong and I would urge anybody considering buying or selling either now, or in the near future to contact our Westbourne branch on 01202 767633 to discuss how we can help.

INSURANCE GROUP RUN FOR CHARITY

LEGISLATION CHANGE - A BOOST TO LANDLORDS Bournecoast say that a new piece of legislation is set to make a huge difference to landlords, who have previously had difficulties evicting tenants on the grounds of anti-social behaviour. The Police say that last year 2.3 million occurrences in England and Wales were reported - the equivalent to around 6,300 incidents every day – and that’s just the incidents that were reported to them as many were either not reported at all, or were reported to other agencies such as local councils or social landlords.

“Clause 89 of the Anti-social Behaviour Crime and Policing Bill 2013-14 will introduce a new obligatory ground for possession by private landlords, where a court will have to grant an order for conviction if any one of five conditions are breached.“ says Simon Tebbutt from Bournecoast.

The five grounds are: 1. The tenant, a member of the tenant’s household or a person visiting the property has been convicted of a serious offence.

2. The tenant, a member of the tenant’s household or a person visiting the property has been found by a court to have breached an injunction to prevent nuisance and annoyance obtained under Clause 1 of the Bill.

3. The tenant, a member of the tenant’s household or a person visiting the property has been convicted for breach of a criminal behaviour order.

4. The tenant’s property has been closed under a closure order obtained under Clause 73 of the Bill and the total period of closure was more than 48 hours.

5. The tenant, a member of the tenant’s household or a person visiting the property has been convicted of a breach of a notice or order to abate noise in relation to the tenants’ property under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

Additionally, Clauses 90 and 91 will give new provisions to enable a landlord to seek possession where a tenant (or a person living in or visiting the tenant’s home) is guilty of con-

duct likely to cause nuisance or annoyance to the landlord, or someone employed in connection with the landlord’s housing management functions, where the conduct relates to or affects those housing management functions; in other words, even if an offence has been carried out away from the rental property, there would be absolute grounds for eviction. Also a landlord will be able to evict a tenant who has been convicted at the scene of a riot anywhere in the UK. Landlords who knowingly sell on a property with an anti-social tenant in residence will also have a legal duty to disclose the situation to the new owner. Currently, the only realistic option available is to serve a Section 21 notice and simply wait. This new legislation had its second reading in June and is now being fine tuned. Bournecoast are the area’s Buy to Let specialists, so for more advice and guidance regarding your investment property, contact their friendly team on 01202 437888 or visit www.bournecoast.co.uk.

NEW GET A MOVE ON CAMPAIGN Staff at Alan & Thomas Insurance Group recently swapped their suits for shorts when they took part in the Great South Run to help raise funds for the Wessex Cancer Trust. The team, which included A&T CEO Julian Boughton, tackled the ten mile route through the city of Portsmouth, whilst raising much needed funds for Wessex Cancer, their official charity of the year. “Our close association with Wessex Cancer has resulted in us taking part in a number of fundraising initiatives over the past couple of years but this was our first real sporting effort, which we were all very much looking forward to” said Julian. “Concern over the weather, ahead of the race, was largely unfounded and what could have been a complete wash out was actually a

pleasant run with mainly blue skies. The last two miles running back along the seafront were quite troublesome though as very strong winds were doing their best to blow everyone backwards!” “We had some very competent runners and a former Iron Man contestant in our team so we were well prepared and more than up for the challenge!” The team consisted of Julian and his daughter Lois, along with Rob Gale, Simon Reeves and Julie Hillier from the Gillingham office of A&T, and Chris Baxter and David Wren from the broker’s property owners’ division based in Poole. Generous family, friends and colleagues pledged their support for the team through donations and encouragement on the day.

A new campaign is being launched aimed at shaking up the way residential property is bought and sold.

Home owners would be required to have surveys done on their property before putting them up for sale, and make them available to prospective purchasers, while agents could be among those forced to pay damages if they drag their heels.

The Get A Move On campaign is calling for the introduction of a legally binding contract within a week of an offer being accepted, committing both buyer and seller to the contract, and a fixed time frame of no more than six weeks for the deal to be completed. The campaign also wants to see survey fees standardised across the country. The campaign is launched by online agent Russell Quirk, of eMoov.

He said changes were long overdue, with the way property is bought and sold having remained largely unchanged for hundreds of years. He said that the way solicitors need to send documents manually

back and forth makes the process cumbersome, and that this, combined with local authorities combing archives to establish the history of ownership, and lengthy property surveys, means that the entire process is too protracted, taking an average of ten weeks to exchange contracts. Quirk says local authorities and solicitors as well as agents should be required to pay damages for maladministration should they slow up the transaction. It is estimated that one in three property purchases fall through, at an estimated waste of £800m. Quirk said: “The aim of the campaign is to ensure that both the buyer and the seller are better protected and to reduce the stress of buying a home so that more people can take confident steps on the property ladder.

“We believe that the current system is antiquated and that a few simple legislative changes will hugely improve the process, saving consumers money, time and emotional stress. After hundreds of years, the time has

come for change.” He told Estate Agent Today that lenders and valuers are today’s major cause of delays. He said: “Maybe with the advance of technology, surveys will be a thing of the past, given automated valuation models. Maybe surveyors could recruit more people. It’s not a difficult job, after all, given that every valuation survey results in the surveyor calling a plethora of estate agents for ‘comparables’ in any case. “Lenders MUST be subject to legislation to ensure that they process offers quicker. “The entire industry needs to be shaken up and despite there being some logistical issues as per ‘this is the way it has always been done’, the process has to be grabbed by the scruff of the neck and improved. “Change is needed and inevitable, unless the forces of apathy hold such an improvement back. We don’t ride horses to work any more, after all.” www.getamoveon.emoov.co.uk/ www.epetitions.direct.gov.uk/ petitions/55015

FINANCE

FINANCE Get up to speed on the latest financial advice.

A MATTER OF SOME INTEREST We are a nation of aspiring homeowners, flocking to banks to borrow a small fortune for the dubious honour of saying we ‘own’ our home. You would think that the financial crisis would put us off the idea of owing money to Britain’s toxic banks, many of which are being funded through our taxes anyway. But new figures released last week show that mortgage lending is actually at its highest level since 2007, when the property market crashed spectacularly.

First-time buyers are leading the way, attracted by lower house prices and Government incentives such as shared-equity schemes. In an ironic twist, this new property resurgence comes as the previous generation of mortgage-owners approach the end of their interest-only terms with no means of paying off the capital. According to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), more than 1.3 million people will not be able to repay the capital when their interest-only mortgage comes to an end, with the average shortfall amounting to £71,000.

So how do you avoid building up an unsustainable mortgage debt? And if you are already struggling to meet your capital payments, what can you do to avoid repossession?

Exciting new funding for Buy To Let Developers!

Are you thinking of doing a property refurbishment or conversion, or buying a property at auction, in order to rent it out - but don’t have the cash to do it?

We have access to an exciting new product called ‘Bridge-To-Let’.

This allows you take out a short term bridging loan, do the works to the property and then convert the loan to a Buy To Let mortgage once the property is finished. Bridge-To-Let enables you to convert from a bridging loan to a much better buy- to- let loan rate with the same lender once the property is finished and a new valuation has been conducted. The Buy To Let product includes free legal fees and a free valuation and allows you to borrow up to 75% Loan To Value.

IT’S FATHER’S DAY - SO DAD, HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH?

An example would be: • Take out a £70,000 bridging loan on a £100,000 property.

• Spend £10,000 upgrading it.

AFFORDING YOUR MORTGAGE

The low repayments of interest-only mortgages can be tempting, particularly for first-time buyers or people on lower incomes. For the first couple of years you may want the benefit of making smaller repayments on your mortgage while you spend money on the property, or elsewhere. But sooner or later, you will have to figure out how you are going to repay the capital when the mortgage term completes. The best way of doing this is to get into a regular pattern of saving, either in a high-interest, long-term bond, or in an ISA wrapper. With a long-term bond (10 years or more) your money is tied up for a set period of time, earning a fixed rate of interest. As a general rule, the longer the term, the higher the interest rate, for instance, while a UK Gilt 10 Year Yield pays 1.92%, a 30-year version pays 3.19%. No tax is paid on the capital or interest of the bond until it has been fully encashed, so you can time the encashment to coincide with your retirement, when your tax liability will be a bit lower. If you opt to save through a Cash ISA or a Stocks and Shares ISA, if may be worth choosing one which does not offer easy access to your funds, to avoid the temptation of dipping into your house savings on a rainy day. If you were to save your full Cash ISA allowance of £5,760 every year, it would take you around 12 years to save up the average national shortfall of £71,000.

For me navy blue conjures up feelings of dependability power and authority and is a colour that brings a classic look to a room. Navy is a bold choice with a sophisticated elegance that also can bring summertime freshness and winter warmth to a room depending on the other colour choices you make for the space.

As winter is drawing in and we are putting on our central heating, when was the last time you had your boiler serviced?

Last year a family, a couple and eight year old daughter narrowly escaped death when their boiler leaked the deadly gas as they slept. The alarm was raised when a neighbouring flat that had a carbon monoxide alarm fitted went off and the fire brigade insisted on evacuating the block. The family were found and then hospitalised due to the large quantity of the lethal gas inhaled.

It was established the boiler had not had a Gas Safety Certificate issued for 2 years. The family were very lucky their neighbour had an alarm fitted. The landlord pleaded guilty at Westminster Court and was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended for two years, ordered to carry out 200 hours of community service and pay £8211 in costs! It is a legal requirement for a landlord to have a yearly Gas Safety check and certificate issued on any rental property, rented room or even if you are a family with overseas students.

What causes it?

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, poisonous gas and a product of incomplete combustion of natural or petroleum gas. Inhaling the gas reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen, leaving the body’s organs and cells starved of oxygen. In the UK, about 50 people die each year in their homes from accidental carbon monoxide poisoning.

What are the symptoms?

The symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may be non-specific and similar to those of a viral cold and flu infections or food poisoning: headache, nausea, abdominal pain, dizziness, sore throat and dry cough. But, unlike flu infection, carbon monoxide poisoning doesn’t cause a high temperature. In children, the symptoms are similar to those of a stomach upset, with nausea and vomiting. More severe poisoning can result in a fast and irregular heart rate, hyperventilation, confusion, drowsiness and difficulty breathing. Seizures and loss of consciousness may also occur.

Forewarned is always forearmed, so landlords and tenants, check your certificates and ensure they are in date and be safe. If you are a home owner, take note, when was the last time you had your boiler serviced?

ELEC-TRICK IN THE HOME

Some energy saving tips & tricks from local business Elec-trick.

Keeping you and your family safe in the home is obviously something you don’t plan to take chances on, but it’s not always easy to know if you’re dicing with danger.

At Elec-trick we strive to give an excellent service at a fair and reasonable price. Much of our work comes from personal recommendation and we have managed to get quite a relationship with many elderly customers who I have been told feel we are fair and do our very best to do what we say we will do.

Here’s some free advice for the coming Winter months.

We often stick to the wiring we’ve inherited when we move into a new home because having a property rewired is a major upheaval, and can be very expensive. Unless the sockets, light switches and flexes are obviously outdated, it’s also hard to tell if the wiring needs to be redone. A good place to start checking is the fuse box - if it has rewirable fuses, for example, it’s in need of an update because modern fuse boxes don’t use fuse wire (however, fuse boxes are sometimes replaced without the rest of the wiring being updated, so you can’t rely on this as an indicator). Other indicators of old wiring you can look out for include sockets with burn marks, single rather than double sockets, sockets mounted on skirting boards, and surface-mounted cables.

The only way to be really sure if the wiring is safe though, is to get a qualified electrician to test it.

INEXPENSIVE ENERGY SOLUTIONS For this, and if your home does subsequently need rewiring, make sure you use an electrician registered with one of the Government’s competent-person schemes, such as NICEIC, as they can self-certify that their work complies with the law.

The key thing is to get a completion certificate so you can prove that the electrical installation is safe and legal, something often needed when you sell or rent out your home.

FAST AND FREE ELECTRICITY Cutting back unnecessary energy use is an easy way to keep your hard earned money in your pocket. Here are some suggestions you can do at home, at absolutely no cost to you.

Let the sunshine in.

Open drapes and let the sun heat your home for free (get them closed again at sundown so they help insulate).

Rearrange your rooms. Move your furniture around so you are sitting near interior walls - exterior walls and older windows are likely to be drafty. Don’t sit in the draft.

Keep it shut. Traditional fireplaces are an energy loser - it’s best not to use them because they pull heated air out of the house and up the chimney. When not in use, make absolutely sure the damper is closed. Before closing the damper, make sure that you don’t have any smoldering embers. If you decide not to use a fireplace, then block off the chimney with a piece of rigid insulation from the hardware store that fits snugly into the space (dampers don’t shut fully without some leaking).

Eliminate wasted energy. Turn off lights in unoccupied rooms. Unplug that spare refrigerator in the garage if you don’t truly need it - this seemingly convenient way to keep extra drinks cold adds 10-25 percent to your electric bill.

Turn off kitchen and bath-ventilating fans after they’ve done their job - these fans can blow out a house-full of heated air if inadvertently left on. Keep your fireplace damper closed unless a fire is burning to prevent up to 8 percent of your furnace-heated air from going up the chimney.

Shorten showers. Simply reducing that lingering time by a few minutes can save hundreds of gallons of hot water per month for a family of four. Showers account for 2/3 of your water heating costs. Cutting your showers in half will reduce your water heating costs by 33 percent.

120

Choose ENERGY STAR® Products. Replace incandescent light bulbs with ENERGTY STAR compact fluorescent light bulbs, especially in high-use light fixtures. Compact fluorescent lights use 75 percent less energy than incandescent lights.

Wrap the hot water tank with jacket insulation. This is especially valuable for older water heaters with little internal insulation. Be sure to leave the air intake vent uncovered when insulating a gas water heater.

Savings up to 10 percent on water heating costs.

UNDERFLOOR HEATING MATS Use appliances efficiently. Do only full loads when using your dishwasher and clothes washer. Use the cold water setting on your clothes washer when you can. Using cold water reduces your washer’s energy use by 75 percent. Be sure to clean your clothes dryer’s lint trap after each use. Use the moisture-sensing automatic drying setting on your dryer if you have one.

Put your computer and monitor to sleep. Most computers come with the power management features turned off. On computers using Windows, open your power management software and set it so your computer goes to sleep if you’re away from your machine for 5 to 15 minutes. Those who use Macintosh computers look for the setting in your Control Panels called “Energy Saver” and set it accordingly. When you’re done using your computer, turn it off (see next tip).

Do not leave it in sleep mode overnight as it is still drawing a small amount of power.

Plug “leaking energy” in electronics. Many new TVs, VCRs, chargers, computer peripherals and other electronics use electricity even when they are switched “off.” Although these “standby losses” are only a few watts each, they add up to more than 50 watts in a typical home that is consumed all the time. If possible, unplug electronic devices and chargers that have a block-shaped transformer on the plug when they are not in use. For computer scanners, printers and other devices that are plugged into a power strip, simply switch off the power strip after shutting down your computer. The best way to minimize these losses of electricity is to purchase ENERGY STAR® products.

The energy efficient ribbon under floor heating mats are ideal for all applications from single rooms to full house heating. As a primary heating source the flat ribbon creates additional space by negating the need for radiators.

The amorphous metal under floor heating is the newest technology on the market which has in turn super ceded other heating technologies. Due to the advanced engineering and robust design the AHT underfloor heating ribbons come with a 15 year warranty compared to 10 years from its nearest rivals.

The flat ribbon under floor heating is so slim line it can be fitted directly under any floor covering including carpet as a primary heat system. The flat ribbons are wide and close together meaning that they do not need to heat up to high temperatures, in fact the ribbons can heat a room with working temperatures as low as 26 – 28 degrees.

It can be installed under carpet, laminate, wood, slate, ceramic, stone, vinyl, travetine. as the only heat source.

THE FUTURE’S ORANGE

TOP TIPS Gold accessories will enhance a sense of luxury, but use silver frames and details for a more contemporary edge, advises Cann.

124

If there’s one colour with the power to bring life and warmth to a room, it’s orange. Gabrielle Fagan picks the sweetest shades and juicy buys for the home. We all need a little spice in our lives to bring excitement, blow away the dark clouds and conjure that feelgood factor.

At home, the easiest way to do that is with an injection of colour - but not just any colour. Orange, with its palette featuring shades associated with exotic sunsets and sultry settings, is the way to go.

After all, the colour is credited with encouraging creativity and producing a reassuring sense of comfort - ideal at a time of year when we all need cosseting.

For a colour guide, simply look outside at nature’s hues, the russet and burnt orange of falling leaves, which blend beautifully with the fading greens and browns of an autumn landscape. While those shades are ideal for an overall decor theme, be inspired by orange’s more punchy tones. Think about using accents of orange - the colour of Halloween pumpkins - in accessories. “Orange is such a versatile colour, yet many people

are afraid of it because they think only of its more bold hues,” says Judy Smith, colour consultant for Crown Paints. “But orange accents can bring warmth to a home, especially as the nights start to draw in and natural light fades. “Also, all colours have a loud and soft side, and the in-between shades can work well in living areas.”

For a warm autumnal feel, she suggests combining orange with leaf green and yellow to create a strong palette which harmonises with light or dark woods, and natural materials.

So ignore the gloomy, dull skies outside and lift your spirits with a shot of undiluted orange in eye-catching accessories or a full dose of the shade for a room scheme.

director of Sanderson and Zoffany. “Orange conjures a cosy atmosphere and teams wonderfully well with grey. Use the latter for walls and then choose orange and copper shades for upholstery fabrics, cushions and lamps.

“Ensure though that you choose a warm grey shade, with undertones of brown, such as our Double Harbour Grey, to accentuate amber hues.”

TOP TIPS Gold accessories will enhance a sense of luxury, but use silver frames and details for a more contemporary edge, advises Cann.

ORANGE PUNCH The boldest, brightest shades are full of verve and the colour gives an instant injection of optimism.

“If you prefer a sleek finish and a modern style, pair orange with soft grey and white finishes like aluminium and lacquer. These will act as a cooling influence and give a fresh, crisp look,” says Judy Smith at Crown Paints.

“Orange gives rooms a lift and demonstrates that you’re confident in your taste. Have fun with the colour, experiment and you’ll be surprised at the pleasing impact it has.”

OUTDOOR LIVING

WHETHER WEATHER IS IMPORTANT TO YOU IT DOESN’T MATTER?

The B200 Outdoor Living® concept is new from Broadview.

Enjoy relaxing in your garden all year round with the flexibility of a covered or uncovered outside space you decide.

You may want to cover your hot tub or entertain friends by evening in a pleasant ambient atmosphere that a B200 Outdoor Living® system will provide.

The B200 Outdoor Living ®provides shelter and can cover small to very large areas thanks to its modular designed frame allowing an unlimited amount of systems to be coupled together side by side.

B200 also has a unique louvred open and close slatted roof tilting system so at the touch of a button it can be a waterproof and solid roof one minute, yet completely open the next. Likewise the optional remote control side screens will roll down or up to enclose you fully, partially or to leave

you open to the elements according to the weather as you wish. Even sun and rain sensors can automate this for you.

Because there is no glass there is also no cleaning required or the worry of a fallen roof tile or tree debris falling and damaging it.

Optional LED light strips can integrate into the aluminium roof slats for evening use along with heaters meaning you are kept warm and dry and even free from insect bites.

Installing is really quite simple and our expert team will undertake the whole process for you from start to finish. You may want your B200 to be free standing away from the house or perhaps connected to your house wall, such is the flexibility of the B200 framework that multiple fixation methods allow installation to be quite simple and a complete installation is completed usually in a single day.

A DOORWAY TO A NEW LOOK

THIS WEEK: HOW TO PERSONALIZE THE FRONT DOOR. When we buy a property, we often inherit a front door we’re not particularly keen on. It’s only natural to want to replace - or at least redecorate - this, making your own personal stamp on the first thing that you and your visitors see.

The easiest way to personalise and update a front door is, of course, to paint it. Ideally, the colour of the door should go with the house’s other exterior woodwork and the brickwork or render, and the style of the door should suit the house’s age and architecture. Quickdrying exterior wood paint is the best option because you need to take the door off its hinges to access all the edges, and quick-drying paint should enable you to finish the job in a day. Don’t forget to paint the top and bottom edges to prevent water seeping in, but don’t apply too much paint because the door may be hard to open and close afterwards.

If there’s no alternative but to replace the door, sadly

this can be tricky and timeconsuming. New doors take quite a bit of adjusting and the door frame may need to be altered or replaced.

The other problem is fitting the locks - you don’t want to compromise your home’s security, so get in a carpenter or locksmith if you’re not sure what you’re doing.

At the back of the house, bifold doors are an increasingly popular alternative to French windows and patio doors, especially for extensions. Bifold doors consist of three or more doors that fold back on themselves and sit flat against one wall or both walls, depending if they open in the middle or at the side.

It’s a case of the bigger, the better with bi-fold doors because they look most impressive when they span a whole wall (or walls). When the weather’s nice, you can fold them back to open up the wall for a fabulous indoorsoutdoors room. If you want to turn your living room, family

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK

room or kitchen-diner into a stunning space, bi-fold doors go a very long way to help.

Changing or fitting exterior doors may seem straightforward, but rules and regulations apply.

Different planning rules can apply on ‘designated land’, such as conservation areas and areas of outstanding natural beauty. Some houses will have had their permitted development rights removed (flats don’t have permitted development rights), which may mean applying for planning permission even to paint the front door, let alone replace it.

Building regulations can apply to new doors, especially if they’re glazed.

The easier option is to get them fitted by a company that can self-certify their work complies with building regs, like those belonging to FENSA (Fenestration SelfAssessment Scheme for the double-glazing industry).

Alternatively, you can get a building control officer from the local council to check that they comply, or use an improved inspector, who does the same job but works for a private company. If you don’t have this piece of paper, you may have problems when trying to sell your home, which is the last thing you need when moving house.

Similar rules apply to listed buildings. You may need listed building consent from your local council to make any changes to any doors, so check first. Also, if you live in a leasehold flat or house, you may need the freeholder’s permission to change or add exterior doors - the building’s front door, for example, usually belongs to the freeholder.

HAMMER DRILL Serious DIY requires seriously good power tools, and the Stanley FatMax SDS Plus Pneumatic Hammer Drill (£129.99, Argos) is exactly that. If you have plaster to chisel off, or a bricked-up chimney breast to open up, there’s no better drill for the job.

As well as a conventional drilling mode and an SDS drilling mode (for high-impact masonry and concrete drilling), this drill has a mode for chasing out and heavy-duty chipping, which is brilliant when there’s demolition to do - at 750W, it packs a powerful punch.

Want an extremely quick and easy way to fill hairline cracks? New Polycell Quick Drying Polyfilla Spray (£5.99 for 300ml, Homebase) makes this tiresome job a doddle.

You simply spray on the filler, press it into the crack and remove any excess with a filling knife, then it’s ready to paint in just two minutes. Brilliant!

KEEPING UP WITH JONES Jane Jones Jane Jones PR

We all need thought-provoking questions in our lives now and then, so here are two for you: are we now a society that allows social media to control our thoughts and actions? And will it, ultimately, be our undoing? We’ve already seen how the worst type of bullying can slip through the net, yet I fear worse is to come!

A year ago I wrote a piece about cyber bullying in my personal blog, but that was more for my own peace of mind. I bemoaned the fact that hand-written letters are becoming a thing of the past, an opinion endorsed by a national newspaper. Fact is less and less people hand write now, and, while that doesn’t bother me too much, what about the telephone? I love a natter and feel saddened that Facebook (should it be renamed Faceless?) and texting have become the norm. Isn’t a familiar voice a lovely way of cheering up a friend or, more importantly, oneself?

We can enthuse, emote, tut, remonstrate and so much more via this good, old-fashioned hand-held device; more importantly, at least one can voice an opinion, make a statement, joke or suggestion without it being terribly misunderstood.

This age we live in, where you can anonymously slate people, is indeed a cause for serious concern and comments that would have once have been governed by the confines of ‘defamation of character’ now seem to know no bounds or boundaries.

And so to National Health, or more to the point, new-borns! Did you know there’s a national shortage of baby milk? I refer to the powdered variety. Perhaps, though, this is because all the tins in the kingdom appear to be housed in open cupboards in our hospitals for all to help themselves to. I am not pointing the finger at any one in particular - that would be dangerous- but please National Health, take a look into your kitchens (you know, the ones where guests and parents can wander in and make a drink on the ward) where cupboards are open for all and sundry to get a tad light fingered…

Rubbish, a particular concern of mine and what we are going to do about it! And now Joan Bakewell is on board, perhaps we will get to the bottom of our waste problem. Sir Richard is leaving us for Necker after he tried and got nowhere and even Boris has shown his concerns. The government must stop stalling and impose heavy fines on unnecessary packaging but will they really listen, to us it is so simple. We don’t need our purchases packaged in mountains of cardboard and cellophane.

Shame on you who do so as I simply hate unnecessary packaging! Once upon a time a product was sold in a simplistic way and please can’t we get back to basics.

Time to lighten things up and what better than with Prince George, latest addition to our royal family! He is the sort of baby that I just want to pinch. I don’t mean hurt, before you think, dear readers, that I have some kind of personal vendetta against the monarchy, what I mean is that he is such a beautiful, chubby little chappy that, like the nation, I want to cuddle him so much.

So, thank you Harriet, for arranging for me to soon be a grandma so I can do exactly that in a few months’ time and by the way I mean cuddle!

Do you wear make-up every day?

No, I don’t wear make-up every day, especially if I’m just working from home or picking up the kids.

However, if I have a meeting I’ll definitely put on some concealer, mascara and creamy blush.

What’s your best beauty tip?

Behind the scenes at any magazine photo shoot you’ll find an army of spritzers, groomers and preeners to make sure the cover star looks picture perfect. But how do the celebrities manage once the make-up artists and hair stylists have packed up their kits? Here three of the most sought-after style icons - Gwyneth Paltrow, Katie Holmes and Nicole Scherzinger disclose their personal beauty regime secrets and reveal how they maintain their dazzling A-lister looks.

I try to look after my skin as much as possible by keeping it freshlooking through exfoliating and moisturising. I exfoliate my skin about four times a week.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s latest Max Factor ‘The Actress’ campaign celebrates the launch of the new Creme Puff in gold packaging, £5.99, available now (Boots/Superdrug)

but realised I had to cut back.

Now I carry a smaller bag with just a make-up palette.

What’s your best beauty tip?

Bobbi has taught me the importance of blending techniques. You don’t look like you have a lot of make-up on, no matter how many products you use - it never looks cakey.

Bobbi Brown Limited Edition Bobbi & Katie Palette, £50, available now.

KATIE HOLMES: FACE OF BOBBI BROWN GWYNETH PALTROW: CREATIVE INSPIRATION FOR MAX FACTOR What’s your make-up musthave?

I always apply blush in the morning, because I have dark hair and I really need it.

A good mascara and a little blush really goes a long way.

How does your look differ for evening?

How would you describe your signature look?

When I’m going out, I apply eye liner on the inside of both the top and bottom lid.

I love that really cool kind of beachy look - a little bit undone, with a darker, smudgy eye. I like sexy and understated.

Do you like to experiment with your beauty?

I feel very inspired by women who can wear both strong eye and lip make-up at the same time, but it’s not a look that necessarily suits me. I love a simple red lip teamed with an otherwise barelooking face.

What’s your hero beauty product?

I love the new Bobbi & Katie palette. It complements different skin tones and the colours go from morning to evening, so it’s everything you need in a day.

I used to carry huge tote bags with dry shampoo, Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick, and a blush brush

When it comes to hair inspiration, Nicole Scherzinger hits the high notes and Miley Cyrus hits a bum note, according to a recent poll. Cyrus was voted the star with the worst haircut, while Scherzinger beat other celeb barnets to the title of best hair, according to the www.Xtras.co.uk survey. Kim Sears, Kate Middleton and Kelly Brook also made the top five for enviable locks. Almost half of UK women (43%) revealed that they had based their own hairstyle on a celebrity.

MOTORING

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring.

By Nick Fletcher

COSTLY FAVOURS Asking a friend, neighbour or family member to repair your car can have potentially costly consequences, a study

by Halfords reveals. Motorists and householders pay out an estimated £300m a year after being forced to enlist the services of a professional to put things right with one in six people left regretting ever accepting help.

The maintenance blunders made by well-meaning amateurs range from elementary mistakes involving car batteries, to more serious errors such as using the wrong oil or fiddling with the electrics.

Almost half (45%) of those who subsequently had to employ an expert were left with a bill of over £100. “It seems that for many people there is no such thing as a cheap favour.

Botched DIY jobs carried out by well-meaning friends are leaving many wishing they’d said ‘thanks but no thanks’.”

“FAVOURS CAN BE PARTICULARLY COSTLY FOR MOTORISTS WHERE A BODGED JOB CAN DAMAGE A CAR.” Halfords survey found 10% of motoring DIY disasters were the result of using the wrong motor oil or not putting antifreeze in the radiator.

One in 12 experienced problems starting their cars after a battery change because the leads had been connected wrongly and a further one in six had water added to their screenwash not realising that diluting it reduced its ability to clean effectively and increased the risk of it freezing in winter.

Dave Poulter added: “In an effort to save a few extra pounds, people often turn to friends or family for help.

However, the complexities of DIY and loss of basic skills that previous generations took for granted mean that taking it to an expert can save money and 150 friendships in the long run.”

ADD VEHICLE CONTRACTS - WHAT IS CAR LEASING? In its most simple definition, a car ‘lessee’ pays a monthly sum to take possession of a contract car for a period of between typically two to four years. At the end of the term the lessee gives the car back to the dealer/owner and takes a new lease or may opt to buy the car at its value at that point.

Why does leasing often get a ‘bigger bounce for your buck’? The amount that a lessee pays over the period of a lease is typically equal to the amount that the contract car (ie; the leased car) will depreciate over that period.

According to the AA, after 3 years the average car will have lost around 60% of its value. However, some cars (Audi, Mini or BMW) depreciate much less than others (Ford) and therefore, it may actually be close to the same price to lease an Audi as it is a Ford.

A rough example that excludes VAT; a £19,000 Ford might have a forecast depreciation of 50% over 3 years

amounting to c. £9,500. This drives the price of the leasing contract and based on depreciation only, over 36 months the Ford might cost approximately £263 a month. However, for an Audi A4 that has an original value of £29,000 it might only depreciate by 30% across that period and this would mean (based on depreciation only) the monthly price would be £241 per month for a more up market vehicle.

payment – provided you have a good credit record this will typically be 3 months as opposed to 10 or 20% for a loan.

Flexibility – although it will increase your payment you can extend the mileage if you like and you can extend the period (which will decrease your monthly payment) and you can opt to buy the car at the end.

Which Car Finance Option is best leasing or buying? This is a subjective question. First you must ask yourself:

Car Leasing Is available for both business & personal users.

What benefits will you get for owning the car? This might include: owning the car for as long as you like; driving an unlimited amount of miles.

FOOD & DRINK

BAKES WORTH THE WHAITE Only last year John Whaite was a final year law student who spent his spare time baking.

Then he cooked his way onto BBC Two’s Great British Bake Off where his breathtaking Roman Colosseum made from gingerbread and deft bread plaiting skills so impressed judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood that they declared him their winner.

But despite this resounding seal of approval from the TV baking duo, and the fact that he’s just published his first book, John Whaite Bakes, some members of Whaite’s family believe their creations are superior. “My sisters and mum still think they’re better at baking and say, ‘This is what

you should be cooking, lad,” laughs Whaite. Gentle ribbing aside, food has always been central to Whaite’s family life.

After his parents divorced, Whaite would bake with his mum and sisters. Baking also provided relief from Whaite’s homesickness while he was studying Italian at Oxford University. Often he would bake in his student home to be reminded of the smells of his family kitchen.

“I think it’s important for people who are away from home to try and find something that connects them to home,” says Whaite, who moved from Manchester to London with his partner earlier this year.

RECIPE

Pistachio & Rosemary Biscotti Ingredients 125g Plain flour 75g Caster sugar 1/2tsp Baking powder Zest of 1 Large orange 50g Dried apricots, roughly chopped

80g Pistachio kernels 1 Sprig rosemary, finely chopped 1 Egg 1tbsp Milk Baking sheet/tray

Method Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas mark 4. Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, orange zest, apricots, pistachios and rosemary in a mixing bowl and stir together so that everything is evenly dispersed. Beat the egg with the milk, and then pour this into the bowl. Bring everything together into a dough. I find it easiest to use my hands: grab the ingredients and squeeze them together then, when the mixture forms a rough dough, knead it gently for a minute just to bring it completely together.

Roll the dough into a long fat sausage, about 23cm long, then place it on the baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, or until light golden brown. Remove from the oven and slice into 1cm thick pieces. A really sharp serrated knife is best, and do it gently so the biscotti sausage doesn’t crumble. Put these slices back on the baking sheet and back into the oven. Immediately turn the oven down to 130ºC/gas mark 1/2 and bake for a further 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely and you will have a batch of beautifully baked biscotti.

RECIPE

Cheese and chive cornbread buns Ingredients 300G Instant cornmeal 1/2tsp Bicarbonate of soda 1tsp Salt 1tsp Ground black pepper 10G Fresh chives 40G Strong cheddar cheese 150ml Milk

150ml Lemonade 1tbsp Honey 2 Eggs 130ml Sunflower oil 12-Hole deep muffin tray, filled with 10 paper cases (leave 2 central holes free)

Method Preheat the oven to 180 ºC/gas mark 4. Put the polenta, bicarbonate of soda, salt, pepper, chives and cheese into a large mixing bowl. Place the milk, lemonade, honey, eggs and sunflower oil into a large jug and beat together. Add to the dry ingredients and mix gently and quickly until everything is evenly dispersed. Gently fill the cases to barely a couple of millimetres from the top, then bake for 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

Tip: The secret is to use lemonade in these buns. Not only does it give a sweet-sharp flavour lift, but the bubbles work alongside the bicarbonate of soda to ensure the buns are wonderfully light and tender.

RECIPE

Taleggio and Salsiccia Galette

SERVES 20

Ingredients 1 Large red onion, finely sliced 100g Fennel, very finely sliced 1tbsp Balsamic vinegar 1/2tsp Salt 1/2tsp Black pepper 1tbsp Light brown sugar 4 Italian salsiccia 150g Yellow peppers 250g Taleggio cheese

320g Roll of all-butter puff pastry, thawed if frozen Leaves from about 6 small sprigs of thyme 1 Small egg, beaten with a pinch of salt, for glazing Small knob of butter and a drop of oil for frying Large baking sheet lined with

Method Preheat the oven to 200 ºC/gas mark 6. Melt the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fennel, and allow to soften slowly for about 10 minutes. If they start to brown, reduce the heat. When soft, add the vinegar, salt, pepper and sugar, and caramelise for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Slice the sausages into discs 1cm thick and place in a bowl to one side.

Chop the peppers into 2.5cm squares and place these to one side, too. Chop the cheese into 1cm chunks. Unroll the pastry on to the baking sheet and, using a sharp knife, score a line all the way round, 1cm in from the edge. This will act as a border and puff up around the filling. Scatter the caramelised onions and fennel evenly over the pastry, keeping the border clear, then arrange the sausage and pepper on top. Add the chunks of cheese and scatter over the thyme leaves. Glaze the border with the beaten egg then bake the galette for about 30 minutes, or until the pastry is beautifully golden and puffed, and the sausage is cooked.

This is delicious hot or cold.

Tip: If you can’t find Taleggio, try Gouda or fontina cheese.

Likewise, salsiccia roughly means ‘sausage’ in Italian, so look for Italian-style sausages in your shop.

Sausages seasoned with fennel or anise are good bets..

SCHOOLS

BUCKHOLME TOWERS SCHOOL AND NURSERY BUCKHOLME PUPILS’ SUMMER OF SAILING Parkstone Yacht Club, with its excellent facilities for young sailors, played host to the Buckholme Towers Sailing Academy for the second year running in 2013. Pupils from Buckholme and other local schools, aged six to 11 years, received coaching in the popular Optimist sailing dinghy. The Optimist class has nurtured some of the greatest sailors in the world, including five times Olympic gold medallist Ben Ainslie.

“IN JUST TWO SEASONS, PUPILS FROM THE BUCKHOLME TOWERS SAILING ACADEMY HAVE PRODUCED SOME SPECTACULAR RESULTS.”

Headmaster Iain Robertson explains how the pupils benefited from their new skills.

“We aim to provide the pupils at Buckholme with a wide range of activities to widen their skillset. The opportunity for seven taster sessions at Parkstone Yacht Club seemed an ideal route for an introduction to sailing. Sailing is a demanding sport that teaches self-reliance, initiative and an appreciation for the environment. Additionally, children who are not naturally competitive on a sports field often become more so when they start to sail a boat with other people around them – this can drive them to realise that to succeed they need to work towards physical fitness, agility and to practise the myriad of skills that it takes to sail tactically and fast.

“Thomas Dunne, Parkstone Yacht Club’s resident training professional and I led the sessions. It’s great to see that the children appreciate and enjoy what we have on our doorstep in Poole. We teach the pupils the fundamentals of sailing, broadly following the Optimist Class Association (IOCA) training programme. By the end they understand every part of the boat, how it is rigged and how to sail a simple course.

“Several of the children who took part in this year’s course were able to go on and race at Parkstone Yacht Club’s youth week along with hundreds of other children who participate in a range of activities on and off the water. They get the opportunity to make new friends in the area and learn the importance of team work and organisation.

“In just two seasons, pupils from the Buckholme Towers Sailing Academy have produced some spectacular results. One of the pupils who started sailing last year has just qualified to the hotly contested Royal Yachting Association Zone Squad and another competed in the Cadet National Championships in a two person youth dinghy.

“Sailing is a sport, at least as demanding as any other, in an environment that is always changing and sometimes challenging.

Sailors need to look out for each other, push themselves physically and technically and compete with integrity in a sport that is self-policing. This is why I strongly believe sailing is a valuable addition to the range of sports that we offer at Buckholme Towers and I recommend that more schools get involved in the challenge.” *The facilities at Parkstone Yacht Club are open to all local schools.
