Hi there,
Welcome to our September edition As always thank you for reading yet another edition of our little magazine. We hope you like the new name and logo, slowly but surely we are going give the whole magazine a makeover, so don't worry it is still us!
August’s Quiz Winner was Frankie Jo Marden from Church Way in Hadleigh, who won an Onward DVD. Well done to all those who got the correct answer despite our mistake! Congratulations!
I'm writing this on the first stormy day and as much as I love the sun this slight breeze is more than welcome after days and days of mid to high 30's. I know all of our distributors will appreciate a cool day or two. Knowing the famous British weather by the time you receive this it will 3ft of snow.
In the kids quiz this month your family has the chance to win a DVD copy of Peppa Pig: Mandy Mouse. Don’t forget you have to be in it to win it!
Thankfully there has been a lot of reports of a successful Eat Out to Help Out scheme for the restaurants and local eateries. As one of the biggest industries hit by the pandemic, I am really glad to see if everyone digging in to support local businesses. We continue this month with what seems to be our increasingly popular puzzles and also owe an apology to anyone who tackled our Wordsearch. Sorry to anyone who spent a long while trying to find the missing word in the grid!

MONEY MATTERS...
Brought to you by Ron Radway from
Bank of Mum and Dad. The Stamp Duty Holiday for House Purchase, introduced by Govt as an aid to kickstarting the Economy during the Covid Crisis, has certainly had an effect, with a virtual tsunami of enquiries, many Estate Agents & Mortgage Brokers reporting record levels of new business.
This Article is Sponsored by
DISTANCE
However, the Pandemic, has also caused severe problems for Lenders, with Social Distancing bringing delays in Surveys, Houses Underwriting & Admin Process, with Lending Criteria fluctuating, from Lender to Lender, on an almost daily basis- Not only Loan to Salary Ratios, but Deposit size as well- Very, very few 5% Deposits available, a few more at 10%, even 15% aren’t so easy to find. And what’s here today, may be gone tomorrow!
Reiki Master happy to offer Distance Reiki
So how does a First Time Buyer get on the Housing Ladder nowadays? Well, with the help of a First Class Mortgage Broker, & the assistance of the Bank of Mum & Dad! Parents & Grandparents are, usually, happy to help their families if they are able, & if not from their own resources, will consider standing Guarantor, or raising funds from their own Property. These options, particularly the latter, need specialist holistic Financial Advice to ensure their own lives aren’t compromised.

Apple Tarte Tatin 7-9 medium apples: 200g white sugar, 50g butter, 225g plain flour, 2 tbsp caster sugar, 120g cold diced butter, 1 medium egg, beaten
Method Serves 6. 20 Min Prep 30 Min Cook IMPORTANT - You cannot use a non-stick frying pan
1
Peel, halve and core the apples, then place in the fridge, for a few hours. It doesn’t matter if they turn a little brown, the idea is for them to dry out a little, so there’s less juice and less chance of soggy pastry.
2
Place the sugar into a 20-24cmcast iron frying pan along with 50ml water and let the sugar soak up the water. Cook over a medium heat until it turns golden and fudgy. Try not to stir the sugar until it’s mostly liquid. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, and a pinch of salt.
3
Carefully arrange the apples in the pan, round-side down. Be careful as the caramel stays hot for a long time! Place it back on the heat and cook gently for 5 minutes. Then remove and allow to cool completely.
4
Sieve the flour into a large mixing bowl, add the diced butter and rub together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and a pinch of salt. Add the beaten egg and combine into a dough. Add a little water if required but keep the dough fairly dry. Wrap it in clingfilm and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5
Pre-heat the oven to 200C / Gas. Roll out the pastry to about 5mm / ¼ inch thick and cut out a circle slightly larger than your pan. Place the pastry on top of the pan and tuck the edges around the fruit. Bake for about 30 minutes until the pastry is golden, then remove from the oven. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then place a plate which should be slightly larger than the pan, on top and carefully invert the tart on to the plate. Serve warm crème fraiche, natural yoghurt, or vanilla ice cream.

AFTER BEFORE
TRANSFORM YOUR HOME AT A FRACTION OF THE COST I would highly recommend this company. They cleaned and painted my roof and jet washed my driveway. It was quite a task but I’m so happy with the result. Very easy to deal with, polite tradesmen who were respectful of social distancing and did a very tidy job. Excellent service, worked non stop to get the job finished. Definitely use again. We have used Billy for patio cleaning, fascia and soffit cleaning and most recently to clean and paint the lower roof tiles and front of our property. We have been extremely pleased with all the work Billy has carried out and would highly recommend him to everyone.

DAZZLING DAHLIAS Over the past few years, I've fallen in love with dahlias for their ability to provide autumn colour. I think Dahlias are like the glamorous friend who arrives late to the party, fresh and full of life. Either way the vibrant colours, tactile textures and stunning petal formations make the Dahlia queen of the September garden for me. The dahlia originates from Mexico and there are 30 species and around 20,000 cultivars! Don't let its exotic past fool you; it hails from high mountain regions so is happy in cool, wet, and windy conditions. It doesn't matter what size your garden is there is a dahlia for you, from dwarf varieties to giants. There is even one variety (Imperialis) that can reach 6m (20 feet) in the wild in its native South America. If your garden is on the exposed side, or you live in the north then look for the pompom varieties as the colourful globes are very hardy, standing up to the worst of the British weather. Dahlia bulbs are comprised of tubers. In order to sprout the tuber must have an ‘eye’. If you live in a very cold area, you can dig up the tubers at the end of the season and plant them out again the following year. My garden is quite sheltered, so I simply cut them down and mulch them. I learned the hard way that mulched dahlias survive and thrive much better than unmulched plants. Dahlia tubers are hungry beasts and don't take kindly to being undernourished. The first year I planted them I didn't mulch and the second year the flowers were sparse and undersized. On the advice of a neighbour I fed them, mulched them, and watered them through the hot season, and they returned in full vigour the following year.

Dahlias come in the most amazing array of colours. 'Lubega Power Yellow-Orange' sounds like a toilet cleaner but is in fact a gloriously tropical dwarf bedding dahlia which produces masses of double flowers well into autumn if you deadhead it regularly. At 30cm you can plant it at the front of the border or in window boxes to brighten the dullest of days. Dahlia 'Cornel Brons' produces wonderful round copper-coloured architectural flowers. They are long-lasting and make spectacular cut flowers. They look good in the middle of a border because they grow to 90cm. For gardeners who prefer a more subtle or unusual colour palette: Dahlia 'Cafe aux Lait produces enormous exquisite blooms in a soft apricot-pink colour, which fade to vintage cream. It's the perfect dahlia for creating a focal point toward the back of the border as it grows to 120cm. Dahlia 'Creme de Cassis' has stunning two-tone petals on water lily-shaped flowers. It grows to 90cm so is good for the middle of a border and also looks fabulous in a big pot.
