Cloudy2Clear Windows – Service With A Smile! It’s been a crazy few months for Cloudy2Clear Windows. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has grown rapidly as homeowners take advantage of their services. Managing Director Chris Miller feels that it’s all about service. ‘Our product is simple. If your double glazing is misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 5 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although

that obviously helps. Many tradespeople have struggled since last year and I honestly feel that during the good times a minority perhaps didn’t focus on customer care as much as they should have done. We make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. I often get comments back from customers on how they really didn’t expect that sort of service which, in a way, is very sad for the service industry as a whole.’ Cloudy2Clear service the Basildon, Billericay, Bowers Gifford, Laindon, Langdon Hills, Pitsea, Vange and Wickford areas

and Chris is finding that his approach is a major factor in his success.‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family

of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated.’ So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Chris a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Gardening Section

Gardening in August

containers as well as climbers and roses growing against a sunny wall. Many a plant will not recover from a drought, so water regularly and do not resort to feast and famine. Water hydrangeas with hydrangea colourant for true blue hydrangeas next year and don’t forget our feathered friends - ensure bird baths are kept full of fresh clean water. If possible, set up an automatic watering system for your vegetable plot, borders and even containers. They are worth their weight in gold and can work on a sensor system that detects how dry the soil is. Once you have one you will wonder why you did not install one years ago. Going on holiday will no longer involve wondering if your precious plants will survive a dry spell or paying someone else to hold a hose! If it stays warm and dry, water saving strategies include using bathwater and washing up water, provided they are neither too dirty or oily. Keep your pond topped up, free of pond weed and clean - green algae can be toxic to pets.

General tasks and garden Weeding maintenance Boring but vital. Keep on top of weeds in borders, The most important thing this month is to enjoy your garden; heady scents, glorious colours, an abundance of fruits and vegetables and hopefully more sunshine. What could be more enjoyable and satisfying than surveying the results of your hard work throughout the year?

Watering

Remember to water and feed your plants regularly, especially those in hanging baskets, pots or

the vegetable garden and all your pots and containers. Little and often will reduce what will become a Herculean task if left to spiral out of control. Weeds not only look messy but use valuable moisture in the ground. The best and easiest way to weed is to use a Dutch hoe which will cut the weeds just below the surface. Weeding on a sunny day will ensure weeds left on the surface dry out and die in the warmth.

1 2 3 4 5

1/2 cup chocolate chips 4 tbsp cocoa powder 1/3 cup heavy cream 4 eggs

Preheat the oven to 350° F (175° C). Place 18 paper baking cups in muffin pans. Combine all the cupcake ingredients in a medium bowl and beat with an electric beater until smooth and creamy. Spoon the batter into the cups. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove pans from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Then remove the cupcakes and cool on a rack. When cool, slice the cupcakes horizontally and spread a little softened ice cream on the bottom slice. Place the top back on the cupcake and freeze.

Add the cream and stir until well combined. Cool slightly and spoon over the cupcakes. Place in Freezer.

www.TheDannyGreenFund.org.uk The Danny Green Fund are proud that we have been able to extend the help that we give to children who have been treated in Great Ormond Street Hospital and have introduced our referrals into other children's hospitals in the UK. We are now receiving new referrals from all over the country and are very pleased to be able to offer support to more children who are suffering from Posterior Fossa Syndrome. The support we provide is not a one off but is provided week after week on an ongoing basis. PFS causes various neurological disabilities

28

as the result of brain tumour surgery. The symptoms of PFS can include weakness in one side of the body, poor balance, facial paralysis, incontinence, mutism and in severe cases the child may be unable to drink or eat. But these symptoms can be overcome with support. The Danny Green Fund provides physiotherapy, hydrotherapy or horse riding therapy on a weekly basis to help rehabilitation and to assist recovery of the children we support. The physiotherapy sessions cost roughly £100 an hour per child per week while hydrotherapy costs roughly £125 per session a week for each child. Horse riding therapy is roughly £20 per session and is extremely beneficial to PFS children who suffer from lack of core strength and have balance issues. The sessions we provide are ongoing

every week and are crucial in helping the children's recovery from this debilitating syndrome. We also provide multi sensory equipment, wheelchairs, Ipads,special needs buggies or a specialist piece of equipment to aid rehabilitation. We are always looking for fund raising ideas to help fund the services we provide. With your help we can help a child to walk again, to regain their confidence and to lead a more independent life.

If you would like to get involved or would like to help fund raise for The Danny Green Fund please contact us at info@thedanny greenfund.org.uk or visit our Facebook page The Danny Green Fund/Charity.

For instance, if you take in 1,050 to 1,200 calories a day, and exercise for one hour per day, you could lose 3-5 pounds in the first week, or more if you weigh more than 250 pounds. It’s very important not to cut calories any further -- that’s dangerous. Limiting salt and starches may also mean losing more weight at first -- but that’s mostly fluids, not fat. “When you reduce sodium and cut starches, you reduce fluids and fluid retention, which can result in up to 5 pounds of fluid loss when you get started,” says Michael Dansinger.

Diets for Fast Weight Loss

Fast Weight Loss That Lasts Working on weight loss? Then you probably want results fast. You can safely lose 3 or more

pounds a week at home with a healthy diet and lots of exercise, says weight loss counselor Katherine Tallmadge, RD.

How to Lose Weight Fast If you burn 500 more calories than you eat every day for a week, you should lose about 1-2 pounds. If you want to lose weight faster, you’ll need to eat less and exercise more.

Dansinger recommends eating a diet that minimizes starches, added sugars, and animal fat from meat and dairy foods. For rapid weight loss, he recommends focusing on fruits, veggies, egg whites, soy products, skinless poultry breasts, fish, shellfish, nonfat dairy foods, and 95% lean meat. Here are more tips from Dawn Jackson Blatner, RD, author of The Flexitarian Diet: • • • •

Eat vegetables to help you feel full. Drink plenty of water. Get tempting foods out of your home. Stay busy -- you don’t want to eat just because you’re bored. • Eat only from a plate, while seated at a table. No grazing in front of the ‘fridge. • Don’t skip meals. Keeping a food journal -- writing down everything you eat -- can also help you stay on track. “Even if you write it down on a napkin and end up throwing it away, the act of writing it down is about being accountable to yourself and is a very effective tool for weight loss,” says Bonnie Taub Dix, MA, RD, author of Read It Before You Eat It.

have a specific use doesn’t need to come without you. 3. Colour code your clothes Look at everything and choose items based on the fact they will work with lots of other items. Thinking of a colour palette makes this even simpler. What you are doing here is ensuring everything works really hard and you don’t end up lugging loads of things that just don’t go with anything else and you will end up never wearing. 4. Bury the shoes Pack shoes at the bottom of your suitcase and surround them with your underwear. Remember to pack into the corners of your bag - lots of space can be wasted by not filling a bag correctly.

Top Tips For Holiday Packing 1. Divide and rule One rule to ensure everything fits is when you have your selection laid out on your bed, just cut it in half. Drastic, but it forces you to focus and just remember all the items you have taken on holiday before and never worn. You feel different on holiday and being comfortable and feeling special are what’s important; concentrate on items that help you do this. 2. Think What and Where Consider everything you might be doing (tennis? posh dinners? hiking? swimming? city explorations?) - then put your favourite items for these scenarios on your bed in piles of tops, bottoms, dresses, shoes, beauty favourites, jackets/coverups, swimwear. Anything that doesn’t

5. Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ Roll every item that can be rolled as this will negate creasing. If you take anything remotely tailored, turn it inside out and tuck in the sleeves and it will arrive in the best shape possible. 6. Slip in some scarves Scarves add very little to your load and will multi-task on holiday like a pro. Use to double over as a mini skirt on the beach, as a cover up over a bikini en-route to the bar, turban style on your head to protect hair during serious sun bathing and, of course, conventionally around your neck to brighten up a plain top or protect shoulders from sun during lunchtime. 7. Dress for success Dresses are very hardworking and also scream “holiday glamour” - a good choice for slimming down that suitcase. In the day, wear with flats, beach with flip flops and sunglasses, then use the same piece by night with heels and lipstick. Easy travelling = sorted. 8. Say yes to swimwear Ideally take a costume if you want to seriously swim, dive or snorkel - and as many bikinis as you love: after all, they only take up a tiny bit of space.
