IMPONDERABLES... OR HOW TO DRIVE YOURSELF MAD WITH IMPOSSIBLE QUESTIONS! There are no end to the number of imponderables we come across in daily life, so we’ve put together a few questions most of us have asked ourselves from time to time.... are there really any answers?
1. Why doesn’t glue stick to the inside of the tube? 2. Why don’t you ever see the headline ‘Psychic wins lottery’? 3. Why is a bra singular and panties plural? 4. Why is a boxing ring always square? 5. Would a fly without wings be a walk? 6. How come a pizza gets to your house faster than an ambulance? 7. Why don’t they make the rest of the aeroplane out of the same materials they use for the black box? 8. Why does no-one say ‘It’s only a game’ when they’re winning? 9. Why do we wash bath towels. Aren’t we clean when we use them? 10. Why does mineral water that has ‘trickled through mountains for centuries’ have a sell-by date? 11. Why is it called ‘Alcoholics Anonymous’ when the first thing you have to do is stand up and say ‘My name is Bob and I’m an alcoholic? 12. Why do they lock petrol station toilets? Are they afraid someone might clean them? Page 18
13. Why does lemon juice contain a load of artificial ingredients but washing up liquid contains real lemons. 14. Why do people point at their wrist when they’re asking you the time? I don’t point at my crotch when I’m asking where the toilet is. 15. Why is the third hand on a watch called the second hand? 16. Why does your gynaecologist leave the room when you’re getting undressed? 17. Why do we leave thousands of pounds worth of car sitting on the drive and fill the garage with a load of rubbish? 18. Why do croutons come in airtight packaging. Aren’t they just stale bread to begin with? 19. Why is it that when someone tells you there are more than a billion stars in the universe you believe them but if they tell you paint is wet you have to touch it to make sure? 20. Why do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won’t miss a call from someone we didn’t want to talk to in the first place? If you actually do have answers to any of these you may just be sadder than me for asking the questions in the first place! August 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

Healthy Eating LEMON MERINGUE PIE
I
f you eat healthily most of the time, you can afford to give yourself a treat now and then, that is when I make this delicious Lemon Meringue Pie. There are not many ingredients and it’s easy to make. You can make your own shortcrust pastry or buy shop bought.
Recipe Pastry: 6oz plain flour, 3oz butter (or margarine), water to bind. Filling: 2 large lemons (with the zest and juice separated), 10 fluid oz water, 3 tablespoons cornflour, 2oz sugar, 2 large egg yolks, 1½ oz butter or margarine Topping: 2 large egg whites, 4oz sugar To make the pastry, rub the butter into the flour until in resembles breadcrumbs. Add water bit by bit until you have a firm dough. Roll out the pastry to fit a pie/flan tin. Heat the oven to gas mark 6. Bake the pastry blind (this means putting greaseproof paper over the pastry and adding some baking beans so that the pastry doesn’t shrink or bubble up), bake it for 10 mins with paper on and then 10 mins with the paper and beans taken out. Take it out of the oven and reduce to oven heat to gas mark 2.

Make the filling – mix the cornflour, sugar and some of the water to a paste. Set aside. Pour the rest of the water and lemon zest into a pan, heat to boiling and then pour in the cornflour mixture – stirring rapidly so no lumps are formed. Heat for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg yolk, lemon and butter. Spread this into the pastry case. Make the topping – whisk egg whites and sugar until it forms stiff peaks. Put the topping into the flan case on top of the filling, use the back of a spoon to tap on the topping to form little peaks. Cook for 45 minutes. ‘Healthy Eating’ courtesy of Sue Lorrimer.

T���K L CAL ��Y L CAL We’re really lucky... our local area is full of wonderful small businesses
There are heaps of reasons to buy from local companies Here are 5 big reasons for using your local businesses: 1. They know their customers Local businesses understand people in the area. They’re quick to react to what their customers want and are able to meet the changing needs of the local population. This means they can offer you relevant and interesting products and services rather than the larger, more commercial companies that generally provide the same things no matter where you live.
2. They create jobs Shops in our towns create jobs within the local community. By purchasing from these smaller businesses, you’re helping to grow employment opportunities which in turn, makes the area a better place to live and work.
3. The experience There’s nothing quite like the personal touch that comes with the customer service in a local shop. They get to know you and can offer products and services that best meet your needs. Plus, they have an authenticity that the bigger brands can’t usually match. What’s not to like?!
4. They’re better for the environment Local businesses often source their products locally, which helps to reduce their carbon footprint.
5. Great deals - you’ll be surprised! Don’t assume that chain stores have the best deals - local businesses can have competitive pricing that you might not expect. Before you hit Google, take the time to have a look around your area and see what’s on offer. Which local businesses do you love?
There are two fine examples of established local companies on the next pages... Visit: www.local-answer.co.uk for LOCAL NEWS & SPORT | August 2021

Business
Digital and Print - The Ideal Marketing Mix! Digital or print. Which is better? This is the wrong question. Instead, we should be asking how they can each serve as a launchpad for the other. Digital and print go together like fish and chips and can be a really powerful marketing combination to connect with potential customers. Here, we’ll talk about why you should be bridging the gap between digital and print and how you can use them to your advantage. So, what are the benefits of this strategy? The internet is chock-a-block with ads. Social media, search engines, emails… you name it! Combining a printed ad with your digital efforts can help to make your brand stand out and give it more prominence. It means that by covering more bases and having more reach, you’re giving people the best chance of seeing your ad which can build brand awareness. Simply put, multiple touchpoints results in a better chance of conversions! Here are a few ways to make it effective: Get consumer feedback Maybe your sales are booming, maybe they’re not. Either way, if you’re using both digital and print mediums, gathering feedback from consumers can help you pinpoint what part of your marketing is working. By asking people what prompted them Page 26
to get in touch, visit your site, or do whatever other action they performed, you can begin to understand their behaviour. It could have been a social media post that they found when scrolling through Facebook or it could be a printed ad that they saw in a local publication. Use calls to action (CTAs) to drive traffic Compelling CTAs can help to get your message across and ultimately, encourage people to take action. That action could be visiting a specific page on your website, calling your number to book an appointment or visiting your shop in person, etc. A CTA can be placed in a digital format or in print. You could experiment with different wording here and see which ones get the most engagement. Examples of calls to action include ‘Claim your free XXX’, ‘Talk to us!’ and ‘Buy now (then give them a reason to)’. Come to life with QR codes and personalised URLs QR codes can be placed, well, anywhere really!

or window displays, they’re relatively straightforward to implement and even easier to track. They’re also convenient for on-the-go customers - they just need to scan it using their mobile. This kind of data can give you an interesting insight into how people are interacting with your business and how, when and where they’re connecting with you. Working best together In summary, by creating a cross-platform marketing strategy and analysing the findings, you can better gauge performance and the behaviour of your consumers. This will help you to develop creative approaches to achieve your business goals. Need help with a printed ad in the Local Answer? Give Yvette a call on 01642 296523, 9am to 4pm, Monday to Thursday.

eep on with the dead heading and watering of all hanging baskets and containers. Adding feed once a week will extend the flowering season and produce better plants. Cut back the foliage from hardy geraniums once they have finished flowering as this should give a second flush of flowers later. Cut back the foliage and stems of herbaceous plants, such as dicentra, when they start to die back but do not cut off the flower heads of ornamental grasses as these will give winter interest. Dead head border plants such as roses, penstemons and bedding to extend their flowering into the autumn. Prune climbing and rambler roses once they have finished flowering unless they are a repeat flowering variety or have attractive hips. Towards the end of the month sow hardy annual seeds directly into the borders to over winter and produce earlier blooms Page 28
the following spring. Keep on top of the weeds with regular hoeing of annual weeds but use a glyphosate based weedkiller for perennial weeds to kill the roots as well as the leaves. Give hedges their final trim of the year. Top up water features and ponds and aerate the water during very hot weather.
Fruit and Vegetables
Pot up any strawberry runners that have rooted. Tie in new growth on blackberries and other hybrid berries. Continually pick summer fruit as soon as it ripens. Any surplus can be frozen or made into jam. Sow quick maturing salad crops such as lettuce, radish, rocket etc. Cut back flowered herbs like marjoram to get a second flush. Pot up some herbs to bring indoors for use during the autumn and winter. Continue to pick mature crops such as tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes and beans to encourage further fruits and to August 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

prevent toughness. Put straw or cardboard underneath marrows to keep them off the earth which can cause rotting. Lift onions, shallots and garlic and leave to dry.
Wildlife Birds still need feeding at this time of year. Hanging bird feeders are best placed over a hard surface such as paving and decking so that any dropped seeds can be easily swept up. This avoids the problem of vermin. If you have a spare piece of bare soil, leave it to become a dust bath for the birds in dry weather. If you are lucky enough to have a hedgehog in your vicinity try to encourage it into your garden by putting out some food. Do not put out bread and milk but instead some cat or dog food. Finally if you have any spare time and there is a fairly long dry spell forecast, give your fences and sheds a coat of preserver.
