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 Benfleet, Hadleigh, South Benfleet and Thundersley 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!

standing on any High St Corner for a couple of hours asking anyone at random! Still, there you have it –It’s Official, get yourself a Hobby, start Socialising, & Happiness will follow. What they forgot to factor in though, is that although the best things in life may come free, hobbies & socialising costs money! As you get older you may have the time to do all the things you want, but unlikely to have the Income or Savings to make the most of it.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas… Let your heart be light, From now on your troubles will be out of sight.

According to the Latest News from the Media, following a study of over 9,000 65 year olds, over an 8 year period, Experts have come to the conclusion that those who have an interest & purpose in life are likely to have a better sense of Well Being, in addition to a more positive attitude, leading to greater longevity.

Here we are as in olden days, Happy golden days of yore, Faithful friends who are dear to us, They gather near to us once more And whilst it is also a truism that Money can’t buy you Happiness, it can certainly make Misery a whole lot more palatable!!

Cut the drinks bill Alcohol often flows freely over the festive period and costs can quickly mount. A good cost comparison website for wine deals is quaffersoffers. co.uk . Here you can search through the current offers at supermarkets throughout the country, including specialist wine sellers. Get on eBay No, not to buy presents – to make room for them! If you’re worried about where you’re going to put your haul, it could be time to decide what has to go. Selling your old things could generate quite a bit of money for the Christmas kitty, but it will require some effort, as you’ll have to photograph the item, list it and ship it. If this sounds like hard work, there are alternatives. Amazon is probably the best choice if you want to sell books; even though there are fees, the profit can add up if you’re selling lots of titles.

10 Ways to Save Money this Christmas Pare your present list Agree with certain friends that you won’t exchange gifts this year, or set a price limit for family presents, particularly those for adults. Alternatively, have a “children only” rule, or set up a Secret Santa. If a maximum price is set in advance, this can be an effective way of keeping costs. Make the most of vouchers Hunt around the home for any elusive gift vouchers. According to the Gift Cards & Vouchers Association, 6pc of all gift vouchers go unspent, with £240m a year left languishing in drawers. Make the most of any reward points you’ve earned on loyalty cards, such as Tesco Clubcard, Boots Advantage or Sainsbury’s Nectar.

Get paid to shop For those who prefer to do their Christmas shopping at home, there are ways to earn cashback from your online purchases. Using a cashback website such as Quidco.com or Topcashback.co.uk is easy: just create an account and use the site to access high street and online retailers. When you buy your gifts you will receive a percentage of the value of your shopping and the cashback will be paid directly into your account. Get designer brands at discount prices If you know where to look, you don’t have to compromise on your favourite brands when you’re trying to save money. For those who prefer shopping online, there are outlet and clearance stores, often owned by big names such as Marks & Spencer and Next, where you can buy their products but pay a lot less.

Switch your supermarket... Buying the festive food can be an expensive business, so make the most of discount supermarkets such as Aldi or Lidl. As well as cut-price party food, these German supermarkets will stock good-quality festive delicacies such as gingerbread treats and stollen.

Cut postage costs Father Christmas might have his elves to cut delivery costs, but we mere mortals can also make savings. Discount couriers can be cheaper than Royal Mail, particularly if you are sending larger or heavier items. What’s more, many will pick up from your home so you don’t have to queue at the post office. www.parcel2go.com is a great comparison site.

...but don’t buy too much Most hosts will want to put on a plentiful spread, but it’s easy to overestimate the amount that people will tuck away. If you don’t want to waste food – or the money you’ve spent buying it – look at lovefoodhatewaste. com, which has a portion calculator.

Save money on Twitter Social networking sites are good for keeping in touch with friends, but they can also be used to save money. Type in “money saving” or another frugal term and connect with those who share their cost-cutting tips.

Dear Neighbour, I don’t believe we’ve met...

My name is Kevin Jones and I own Colbert Garage, not far from where you live. We’re a family run business and according to some of our customers, a dying breed. We believe that our customers want to deal with people who know who they are and don’t treat them like they’ve never been seen before; a garage that understands what is important when it comes to fixing or servicing your car. Whether it’s essential you get it done quickly, so you don’t miss an important journey or meeting, or whether safety is causing you concerns. We enjoy getting to know our customers. We believe in being part of our local community, which is why we’d like to offer you a little something for when you next need your car serviced or fixed.

Donate Christmas Gifts to GOSH and Local Children’s Hospitals It's that time of year once again when we start thinking about Christmas , a time of fun laughter and family. For those children and their parents staying in hospital over Christmas as they are too poorly to go home it can be a time of isolation and loneliness. The Danny Green Fund would like to make Christmas a little more special for these children and will once again be taking donated gifts to Great Ormond Street Hospital and local hospi tals on Christmas Eve. If you would like to donate a gift please contact us at info@thedannygreenfund.org.uk, the gift can be suitable for a child from birth to 16 and can either be donated wrapped or unwrapped. If the gifts are wrapped please

add a tag stating whether the gift is for a girl or boy and a rough age group that the gift will be suitable for. Please do not spend more than £10 so that every child will get a gift of roughly the same value. We thank you in advance for your generosity and helping to spread the true meaning of Christmas. The Danny Green Fund will be holding a fund raising Christmas Party night on 6th December at the Paddocks, Canvey Island. There will be a Blues Brothers tribute act along with an Ali Campbell / UB40 tribute and disco. For Tickets or further information please call 07979333283 or email us at info@the dannygreenfund.org.uk.

The Best Roast Vegetables Pan of boiling salted water per vegetable freshly ground black pepper ½ bunch fresh rosemary, leaves picked ½ bulb garlic, broken into cloves, unpeeled good-quality balsamic vinegar

1 2

extra virgin olive oil 1 tbsp runny honey sea salt

BUS

Pre-heat oven to between 180°C and 200°C.

3 4

400g

Place the vegetables in one of the pans and parboil for 5 to 10 minutes, or until half cooked. Drain the vegetables, then leave them to steam dry. Return the potatoes to the hot pan and shake it around to chuff up the edges. Repeat with the other vegetables but do not shake them around after leaving them to steam dry. Scatter the potatoes with the rosemary, half the garlic cloves, a drizzle of oil, and season with salt and pepper, then spread them out evenly in a roasting tray. Toss carrots with honey, a lug of oil and season well with salt and pepper, then add them to the tray, spooning over any remaining juices. Toss beetroot with a lug of balsamic and oil, and season well with salt and pepper, then add them to the tray too. Scatter over the remaining garlic cloves and roast all the veg in the hot oven for about 20 to 30 minutes, giving them a jiggle every so often, or until everything is crispy, golden and delicious. Keep an eye on them and rotate the tray for even cooking.

COMMUNITY SAFETY PARTNERSHIP

Essex Community Messaging System Launched A new messaging system giving you the latest information about crime and community safety has been launched. Essex Community Messaging (ECM) gives everyone who signs up the chance to receive crime notifications and crime prevention advice via email, text or voice message from Essex

Nick Alston, Police and Crime Commissioner for Essex, said: “Essex Community Messaging will get key crime and crime prevention information out to communities faster than ever before. It will also improve the two-way flow of information about community safety between Essex Police, Neighbourhood and other Watch groups, and the people of Essex. “We need to help communities join Essex Police in the fight against crime. Whether it’s through reporting suspicious behaviour or learning about simple measures to take to prevent crime, ECM will provide a crucial new channel for keeping our communities safe. I urge everyone to register now for ECM.” You can sign up to receive messages on the Essex Police Website www.essex.police.uk now.
