Dawn

Where does the time go?

What will 2012 bring for us all? Moira

Hopefully, for some it will mean financial prosperity for others it could mean a change in health (let it be for the better) - others may be planning life-changing situations like getting married or starting a family.

Then there are those who will be changing jobs - homes - moving to new areas - or coming to terms with not-so-good changes that have taken place during the last twelve months.

And no doubt there are those who will be starting the New Year in true traditional style with a new resolution. It may be a concerted effort to stop smoking, drinking or giving up one or another addiction. On the other hand it may be that you will personally resolve to

be a better person, to help those less fortunate than yourself.

You may simply want to make a determined effort to get into shape in the coming year, but don’t worry help is at hand. There are plenty of LINK traders, who are willing to help you with all sorts of New Year changes. See inside they may just be able to help with that New Year resolution and assist in changing the course of the next twelve months for you and your family.

As 2012 dawns, all of us at the LINK would like to wish our readers and advertisers a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.

Very best wishes from Moira and Dawn

SOUTH REACH THE TOP

by Jim Stanway With Christmas approaching, South Liverpool FC’s top three teams (first XI, reserves & youth) all became leaders of their respective leagues. The first team have now won their last nine league games and have opened up a healthy gap in the promotion race.

The pick of the recent wins was a comprehensive 5-0 win at New Brighton with a hat-trick for striker Neil Fisher, who now has 13 goals this season, and two for Gerard Forde, both expertly

www.liverpoollink.co.uk taken after coming on as substitute.

A 4-2 win over Barrluca with two goals for Mitchell McNally and one each for Francis Evans and Neil Roach saw the reserves take over the league leadership as their main rivals, Real Stadium, were without a game.

Another win over Barrluca in the divisional cup saw the team progress in their pursuit of an unprecedented treble, with the goals in a 3-0 win coming from Mitchell McNally (two) and Neil Roach.

The youth team reached the top when their main rivals, Maghull, lost three points when one of their opponents’ records were expunged. The weather had prevented the team completing home and away games against Runcorn Town but there then followed an excellent 3-2 away win at title rivals Hale. A penalty save by keeper Jack Robinson and a penalty scored

by Brad McEvoy were the crucial elements in a tight game which saw striker Sharif Yusuf score twice.

TAKING A LIBERTY

by Stephen Guy

The modern prison system dates from the 19th century and was a largely British invention – for centuries there were few gaols because capital and corporal punishment were the principal penalties.

Up to about 1800 more than 200 crimes, from theft to murder, were punishable by death. People were executed in public until 1868 when the practice was banned because of the increasingly unruly crowds that gathered to watch.

Throughout the ages imprisonment was not regarded as a punishment in itself but simply a way of holding offenders until they were dealt with.

High-ranking people were imprisoned for political reasons – in the Tower of London for example – but the general population were handled swiftly. Examples of everyday justice included the

stocks, pillory and ducking stool.

Sharp-tongued, abusive women sometimes had an iron cage called a scold’s bridle clamped over their heads before submitting to the public gaze.

There were also debtors’ prisons where people were held in varying degrees of comfort until they paid back what they owed.

The first modern prisons were in London where enlightened thinkers such as Jeremy Bentham propagated the idea that prisons should reform and rehabilitate as well as punish. This was a revolutionary concept at the time and is the theory behind prisons prevalent to this day.

Victorian prison regimes were very different from those of today, although many gaols from that period are still in use including Liverpool’s Walton Prison.

This was where one of the last executions took place in 1964 and before that prisoners experienced

www.liverpoollink.co.uk tough punishments including penal servitude where they undertook hard, back-breaking work.

The authorities also experimented with other ways of dealing with criminals including transporting them to colonies in the fast-growing British Empire.

Wavertree Lock-Up (pictured) dates from 1796 and was not a prison – it was a place where drunks or violent trouble-makers were detained to cool off or await punishment.

It was originally a simple structure, similar to the one that can

also still be seen in Everton, until leading Wavertree resident Sir James Picton used his skills as an architect to gentrify the lock-up so it fitted into his picturesque vision for the area.

Built on what is still common land, the lock-up also housed sick people and homeless migrants during its long history.

www.liverpoollink.co.uk PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE Organising your wealth and health affairs must take place when you are still alive, but also when you retain mental capacity.

All too often people not only refuse to acknowledge the finality of life, but fail to accept that accident or illness at some future date may render then incapable mentally of providing instructions.

Ian Sturgess of Gregory Abrams Davidson Solicitors LLP

A legal to do list Solicitor Ian Sturgess of Gregory Abrams Davidson Solicitors LLP provides a legal help list during these difficult times.

Unlike certain brands of face cream that promise to remove all visible signs of aging, the private client lawyer cannot promise you eternal youth, but can offer you sound practical

advice that will provide you with peace of mind that your financial and welfare affairs are properly organised, safeguarding your own personal interests and reducing the administrative headache that can otherwise face your family at some future date. The following should be upon everyone’s “to do list” now, not in years to come:

To advertise see inside back page

Consider all financial planning to be like building insurance (but without the obligatory yearly premium). Everyone maintains building insurance - although very few of us know of someone whose house has burnt to the ground.

Everyone, alas, has had close friends and relatives who have died or lost mental capacity with untold legal difficulties arising.

WILLS • 88% of the population have failed to make adequate provision for family and friends within a will.

• Spouses do not inherit automatically from each other.

• People living together as a cou-

Say you saw it in the LINK

ple are not recognised by the law.

• Distant relatives you have not seen for decades can all too often become your beneficiary.

Only by taking control through a Will can you determine who actually inherits upon your death.

LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY (LPA) • If you lose mental capacity at any time in the future, no guidance or assistance can be secured from your Will - as you are still alive • Loved ones can be faced with the double trauma of attempting to care for you whilst at the same time being legally prevented from accessing your funds to secure much needed medical and health care.

• Take the initiative whilst you are still healthy, you can appoint Attorneys who will have the legal power to administer your financial affairs at a time you yourself cannot do so.
