In The Garden
P
lant spring flowering bulbs such as daffodils, crocus, muscari and scilla but not tulips. Continue with dead heading and weeding so that you extend the flowering season and keep soil nutrients and moisture for your plants and not the weeds. If you have any large clumps of perennials or alpines then now is a good time to split and divide. Most plants can be separated into many smaller pieces which can all be replanted or given away. Discard the very old centre portion as this will not make a good new plant. Plant out new spring bedding such as wallflowers, primula and bellis. Bring inside any tender perennials such as fuchsia or geraniums before the first frosts. If you have somewhere frost free they can be kept over winter or if not then take cuttings. After the first frost lift cannas and dahlias or if you live in a sheltered spot you can try to leave them in the ground but cover them with straw or bracken.
one. If the edge of a lawn has broken down then cut out a patch round it of about 1 foot square and turn the turf round so that the broken edge is now next to the lawn and the good edge is facing out. The bare patch can then be sprinkled with fine soil or compost and then seeded. It is a good time to scarify (rake out all the thatch and debris with a long tined rake) and aerate (make holes all over the lawn with a fork and brush in compost). It is hard work but well worth doing as the lawn looks much better and it prevents problems such as moss and water logging. After scarifying and aerating put on an autumn feed that is high in potassium. Don’t use a summer feed as you will get soft growth which will be prone to disease. Finally top dress the lawn with loam or sand working it in with a still brush or the back of a rake. If this all sounds like too much hard work you can buy scarifiers and aeraters to make life easier.

See Page 30 for our Index of Advertisers new canes. New fruit trees can be planted if the ground is moist. Wait until later if we are having a dry spell. Remove any diseased fruits to stop the spread of disease. At the end of the month wrap grease band around the trunks of fruit trees to prevent the wingless female moths from climbing up to lay their eggs. Continue to sow over wintering seeds such as spinach, turnip, lettuce and onions. Any outdoor tomatoes should be picked before frosts and brought indoors to ripen. Leave them on the vine and place the whole truss in a greenhouse or on a windowsill. Lift onions and shallots but do not bend over at the neck as they wont store as well. If the weather is not wet leave them to dry on the soil otherwise bring them into a dry shed. Lift all root vegetables and store in a cool, dark and dry place. Leave parsnips in the ground as they are better tasting after being frosted.
Wildlife Clean out bird baths and keep them topped up with water. As the breeding season for birds is not quite over it is still not safe to put out peanuts and other large bird food but continue with small bird food. If you have the room put a pile of twigs or logs in a quiet corner of the garden as these will become home to lots of wildlife. To make it an attractive area plant around the logs with primroses, ferns etc. Do not cut back any plants with seed heads, such as sunflowers, as they provide a useful source of food for birds. Make or buy a hedgehog hibernation box and leave it under a pile of dead leaves at the back of garden where it will be undisturbed. If making it yourself add a tunnel to the entrance hole to stop predators from entering the nest.

Healthy Eating
LINSEEDS LOADS OF HEALTH BENEFITS
L
inseeds are also known as flaxseeds, you can buy them in golden or brown colours but they both have the same health benefits. Linseeds can help to alleviate constipation, improve IBS, improve digestive function, improve blood cholesterol levels, help reduce symptoms of menopause (less hot flushes) and are a great source of gluten-free fibre. Ground up, they are a brilliant source of Omega 3 essential fatty acids (Alpha Linoleic acid) for vegetarians and vegans and for healthy joints. Omega 3 can help with inflammation in the body with conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and arthritis. Linseeds also contain Vitamin B1, B6 complex, potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and selenium. The best way to use linseeds is to grind them in an electric coffee grinder then add a tablespoon to your cereal or porridge for breakfast. A smoothie with fruit, soy milk and linseeds is even healthier.
Fruit & Linseed Smoothie 1 tablespoon of linseeds (already ground or just whole).
1 cup of soy milk (better than cow’s milk for conditions such as arthritis). Choose your fruit – ½ an apple, a pear, ½ a banana, pineapple, ginger, cherries (put in the fruit mixture you fancy or if you want to do it cheaply just use either apple or banana). Blend (in a blender or use a hand blender). Tip: The linseeds can be bought from a local supermarket in a 250g bag, but if you feel the health benefits you can order them in bulk online in 25kg bags (if 4-5 friends club together it works out much cheaper than supermarkets). ‘Healthy Eating’ courtesy of Sue Lorrimer.

Recipe
BANANA FUDGE LAYER CAKE INGREDIENTS: - For the Sponge 175g unsalted butter, softened 25g light brown muscovado sugar 175g self raising flour 1 tbsp milk 150g caster sugar 3 large free-range eggs, at room METHOD: 1. Preheat the oven to 180C and grease two 20.5cm sandwich tins (lining the bases with baking paper). Beat the softened butter in a mixing bowl with a wooden spoon or electric
temperature, beaten ½ tsp vanilla extract - For the Filling and Topping 175g light brown muscovado sugar 75g double cream 1 ripe banana 150g unsalted butter mixer until creamy.

5. Divide the mixture equally between the two prepared tins and spread evenly. Bake in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes until the cakes are a light golden colour and just firm enough to the touch. Turn out the sponges on to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Meanwhile, make the fudge by heating the butter, cream and sugar in a medium pan over a low heat. Stir frequently until the butter has melted. Increase the heat a little and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring frequently to keep the mixture from catching. 7. Remove from the heat and stir vigorously for 30 seconds. Leave to cool, stirring gently occasionally. It will gradually thicken and is ready to use once it has become spreadable (You may need to put it in the fridge for a few minutes). 8. Spread the fudge evenly on to each cake, swirling the fudge on the top cake with the back of a spoon or round bladed knife. Arrange the thinly sliced banana slices on top of the fudge on the bottom cake before sandwiching the two cakes together. 9. Store in an airtight container for up to four days.

In my defence I do see the funny side of growing old and when I recently came across the following beliefs I felt compelled to share them with you. Enjoy!....
He then considered the function of bladders and decided seniors should have many more calls of nature than their younger counterparts thus providing yet more exercise.
When God decreed that people would grow older with the passing of time he realised that many of them wouldn’t realise that they should be taking appropriate exercise in order to keep themselves fit for as long as possible.
So if you find as you age that you are getting up and down more, walking more and bending more don’t mutter under your breath. Just accept it because now you know it’s God’s will.
In his wisdom he therefore decided that we should all become forgetful so we would have to expend both time and energy searching for glasses, keys, wallets and all the other things we tend to misplace. The result is that we do more walking than perhaps we need to, but that helps to keep us fit. He also arranged for our co-
And here are a few more important facts to remember as you grow older... Death is the number one killer in the world. Life is sexually transmitted. Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. Men have 2 motivations: hunger and hanky panky and they can’t tell them apart. So if you see a gleam in

Football - The ‘Boro
THE NEW SEASON’S ALMOST UPON US. JUST HOW TOUGH IS IT GOING TO BE?
I
t was a bit of a brutal indication of just how tough the upcoming season looks when the fixtures were released to reveal our first two games would be against newly relegated Watford and Bournemouth. OK, you have to play these teams at some point, but with the deafening silence on incoming transfers and more than seven regulars leaving from last season we really do have a mountain to climb from day one... or do we? Yes, we’ve lost a number of players who appeared quite a lot last season but to be fair, how many of those players would we have wanted to keep on the strength of their performances during that period? Perhaps the main man to have gone is George Friend and while I would be the last person to criticise George in any way after a tremendous eight years of sterling service to Middlesbrough – both on and off the field - I have to say there were obvious signs of him slowing down and becoming less productive. So with the majority of fans looking for more pace and definitely more creativity will we really miss him? A glance at the other out-of-contract players to have gone tells a similar story. Adam Clayton has done well in his time
but he’s not getting any younger, and perhaps the same can be said for both Daniel Ayala, who often looked like an accident waiting to happen, and Ryan Shotton who has never really convinced. And finally, how many will mourn the loss of Rudi Gestede’s questionable contribution during his time at the Riverside? That all these players would have been on wages at the top end of the Championship scale that can now be used to improve the team is perhaps the main advantage of their departures. Loan-wise, we have also lost Harold Moukoudi, who Warnock obviously didn’t see as a centre back, Lucas N’Mecha who added absolutely nothing during his loan spell, Ravel Morrison who was never really given a chance so obviously hadn’t performed in training, and finally Patrick Roberts – perhaps the only loanee who looked as if he could improve the side. So, being blunt, the only thing we have lost is numbers. Grant Hall is so far the only on-field arrival and it can be said he’s a typical Warnock signing, bringing as he does both experience and strength. That the club continues to try and generate further signings without much success so far

On the transfer front we can only wait and see what happens over the next couple of weeks, but those first two games will be a good indication of how we will cope with the season and what effect the apparently excellent training schedules already undertaken by Warnock can generate. Sky Bet are currently quoting odds of 11-1 against relegation and 11-2 for promotion so it’s fairly obvious that they rate us as just a mid table prospect. After the panic of the last few weeks of the season just gone that might be a bit of a relief, but being a typical ‘Boro fan I’m looking for so much more than that. October 3rd seems a long way off but that is apparently when the league is forecasting a return of crowds to grounds – albeit on a reduced scale! It will be interesting to see where we sit in the league by then, but regardless of that, I for one simply can’t wait. Let’s all hope for the best.
Sudoku
is an excellent indication of the current climate on the football scene. And we can’t really expect it to suddenly improve. That means that we are going to have to rely considerably on what we already have, but to be honest I don’t think that’s a particularly bad thing. Some of the younger players that came through last season to stake a claim as possible future first team regulars can only have improved with the experience they have already enjoyed. Young men like Dael Fry, Marcus Tavernier, Ainsley Pears, Djed Spence, Hayden Coulson and Anfernee Dijksteel all contributed to the season and all have a long career ahead of them. And hopefully, the more established players still with us like Paddy McNair, Jonny Howson, Lewis Wing, Marvin Johnson, Ashley Fletcher and Britt Asssombalonga can all benefit from playing under the vast experience of Neil Warnock.
