Congratulation to Pypers Garage Congratulations to all the team ay Pypers Garage, as part of the Safe and Secure Scheme supported by local trading standards, Blackpool Council and the local police.

NOVEMBER 2012 Contents Covering the FY4 postcode area.

BLACKPOOL SOUTH Your FREE Local Community & Business Directory Hello and welcome to the latest edition of LINK Mag! I don’t want to worry you, but Christmas is creeping ever closer!

Loads of the many businesses featured in this month’s magazine have incredible seasonal offers on – so make sure you keep your eyes peeled for a bargain or two, although I bet one or two readers will have started their Christmas shopping in January!

There’s still loads to do before then though. Remember, remember… erm, what date is it again? Oh yeah, the 5th November. The night when the smell of gunpowder and burning wood fills the air and the crackling of constant fireworks excites people of all ages.

Wrap up warm and head down to one of the many bonfires arranged throughout the Fylde Coast: Cottam Hall in Poulton, Blackpool Cricket Club at Stanley Park, Rossall School and more!

WIN 2 FREE Tickets to watch Southend Utd match at Fleetwood Town FC 8th December, simply answer the question and be entered into the draw, see inside.

Congratulations to the winners of last month’s competitions.

Margaret Dyer of Blackpool won our Where Am I? Competition, so well done - £50 is on its way to you!

Don’t forget, LINK-Magazine also offers competitive leaflet print and distribution for up to 96,000 homes and businesses across the Fylde Coast, as well as offering FREE ‘What’s On’ listings for most local events.

Postcard from Blackpool The World Fireworks Championships got blown away in September, so hopefully Guy Fawkes Night will go with a bang, with the bonfire and fireworks at Blackpool Cricket Club on 5th November!

The Illuminations are almost at an end, and some hoteliers will be taking a well earned rest after the season, but Blackpool doesn’t sleep through winter, with much of it carrying on as normal.

In another few weeks Christmas will be well and truly upon us, with grottos, festivals and twinkling lights and that hustling, bustling feeling in the shops.

you’ve got a story to tell please get in touch.

We want to know everything – so that we can share it with you!

Don’t forget the new Events Calendar on the Live Blackpool website - keep an eye on it for meetings, events and entertainment. Go to www.liveBlackpool.info, for all the latest local developments and community news. You can subscribe for email updates to make sure that you don’t miss out and follow it on Facebook.

If you’ve got anything to tell us just email jane@theRabbitPatch.co.uk or ring 07932 143431.

If you are reading this you must be one of the lucky thousands who live in this great seaside place, and on a whim you can enjoy everything that the coast has to offer, even in winter.

A property maintenance company with a difference, Roof Tech Warranties undertakes all aspects of repair and maintenance work, but also offers a five-year interest free maintenance warranty from as little as £16.66 per month.

The price depends on the size of your property, so ask for a free no obligation quote today. The warranty covers the whole of the exterior, taking the worry out of property maintenance.

With a free yearly inspection and service, the warranty covers wear and tear, which most insurers do not.

With a fleet of vans and expert staff attending call outs within 24 hours, there’s no need to search for reliable roofers or builders, when Roof Tech Warranties can give you the priceless piece of mind that you’re protected should the worst happen.

www.rooftechwarranties.co.uk Techno Clear has only been operating for a few months, so it’s inevitable they’d have a complaint or two while the teething problems were ironed out.

And true enough, they did. Apparently the high quality Clearshield solution that had been applied to a customer’s windows had left her windows so clean that birds were flying into them!

Techno Clear is the only company on the Fylde Coast with the lucrative license to apply Clearshield, a harmless solution, to glass to make them maintenance free.

It can be applied to windows, glass doors, shower cubicles, even mirrors and coffee tables should you wish – they even do the interior!

Fully trained staff expertly return the glass to factory standard before applying the solution, leaving the window so easy to maintain simply throwing a bucket of water over it will remove tough seaside salt and sand - without leaving streaks.

There’s no need for polish or expensive cleaning materials either!

Call 01253 780588 today for more information!

TIRED OF CLEANING WINDOWS? WANT TO SAVE MONEY!

Techno Clear Eliminate to need to clean • Salt/Sand • Bird Lime • Dirt

We are licenced applicators of Clearshield.

every year the country’s skies erupt with colour, but there’s more to bonfire night than the fireworks....

remember, remember...

the 5th of November!

We’ve all heard this rhyme and know it’s related to Bonfire Night and something to do with Guy Fawkes and the Houses of Parliament. Or was it the House of Commons?

Well, to try and clear up any doubts over what we are actually celebrating on 5 November every year, and how to celebrate it in style, we’ve put together a little guide.

It’s only natural that we start right at the beginning with the history of Bonfire Night. The main cause for this near-catastrophic event in British history was, of course, stemmed in religion.

When King James I came to the English throne in 1605 he established his power in the persecution of as many Catholics as possible, being a devout Protestant himself.

Obviously, the Catholics, who weren’t even allowed to practice their beliefs, opposed this idea and the famous ‘Gunpowder Plot’ was born. Aiming to blow up the Houses of Parliament and all who were inside (namely King James), the group sent the legendary Guy Fawkes to keep watch over the barrels of gunpowder hidden under the Parliament floors. He was found and arrested and the plan was blown to pieces. In celebration of his lucky escape, King James ordered for a bonfire to take place each year in remembrance.

BONFire NiGHt Was BOrN. 30

Steeped in tradition, the whole of Britain comes out and enjoys 5 November year after year, no matter the weather. It’s probably better if the fire doesn’t turn to embers as quickly as it starts, but hey, whether it’s raining, blowing a gale or (fingers crossed!) crisp and dry, we all love a good bonfire.

Every bonfire party should never be without good food, whether it’s at an organised event or a private party at home, toffee apples and bonfire lollies are a must, as are marshmallows cooked over the open flames. Delicious, hearty food should always be provided, so think sausage casseroles, beef stews and chilli con carne, and a large glass of mulled wine or spiced cider is always a good idea for warming your hands on. Try hot apple juice and cinnamon for the kids.

To get the most out of your bonfire, make sure you invest in some decent fireworks, and I don’t mean the £10 ones bought from your corner shop which just spit an array of colours whilst never moving off the ground. Check to see if there is a safe, organised firework event in your local area where all the family can enjoy the spectacular fireworks.

Where else in the world can you stand around in the freezing cold, eating burnt sausages and roasted chestnuts watching the sky light up before you? Get your friends and family round, wave a few sparklers and have fun with this truly brilliant British tradition.
