AN ALL-ROUND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE Craig Wilson has been running Wilson Plumbing and Heating for over 30 years. Having many years’ experience prior to that, Craig really is an expert in every area of Plumbing and Heating. There is always a solution to any challenge. With vast experience and such a depth of professional knowledge there are very few situations that Craig has not come across in his time. Working through the COVID 19 pandemic has been a first though. From the very first days it became apparent Covid was going to be a problem in this country Wilson Plumbing and Heating immediately implemented numerous measures to keep customers and staff safe. The engineers were, and still are, regularly briefed. Policies and procedures have been adapted as the situation developed. Continuing to work to cover customers emergency repairs and maintenance was essential for a company that has built its business on customer service. Customers depend on Wilson reliability. The team did not want to let anyone down in their time of need. Working with the Health and Safety Executive and Government guidance, jobs were prioritised. Emergency repairs, boiler replacement and essential maintenance work has continued, with very stringent precautions in place to keep everyone as safe as is possible. The team of engineers is growing at Wilson Plumbing and Heating. Steve Toulson has just been welcomed to the fold. With more than 30 years’ experience, the last 18 with British Gas, Craig Wilson is delighted with Steve’s appointment. ‘Steve is an excellent addition to our team, with a Page 14
wealth of experience. Adding to engineer Kens 40 years’ experience and Grahams 30 years’ we can grow whilst continuing to provide the professional expertise that we are known for. We are still looking to recruit exceptional gas and oil installation engineers to our growing business.’ Wilson Plumbing and Heating are a Worcester Bosch Accredited Partner and Worcester Approved Service Provider. This reinforces the company’s high standards and enables them to offer extended warranties and carry out repairs to Worcester boilers within the warranty period. This gives customers additional peace of mind, on top of the excellent backup provided by Worcester themselves. Warranties are up to twelve years warranty, depending on the boiler model. Wilson Plumbing and Heating offer customers an all-round professional service, including heating installation, maintenance, and repairs for gas, oil, LPG, Warm air and commercial. Plus boiler and fire servicing and repairs, landlord gas safety inspections, legionella risk assessments, park home and caravan heating and certification - and much more.

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 | February 2021

raditional pancakes are quick to make, easy, cheap and quite delicious with lemon and sugar, golden syrup, chocolate Nutella type spread, honey, cream... whatever takes your fancy. You need a gentle touch to start with, the aim is to get thin pancakes with a frilly edge and to do this you must have a hot pan and only a little batter. Pour it in quickly and move the pan from side to side to distribute the batter. You should see the little bubbles rising to the surface, flip up the side with a fish slice to see if it is brown enough but don’t get carried away and start Page 24
batting it down with the slice-you will only make the pancake heavier. A quick flick of the wrist and you should be able to flip it into the air like a pro. Once you have made one or two you will get the knack of it. They are best eaten warm.
INGREDIENTS: Makes about fourteen pancakes 125g Plain flour ¼ teaspoon of salt 1 large egg 300ml milk Lard or solid vegetable fat February 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

Place flour and salt in a basin. Make a well in the centre and add the egg and half the milk. Beat well and then gradually add the rest of the milk. Beat until bubbles appear and then pour into a small jug to make the pouring easier. The batter should be the consistency of single cream.
Pour in a little batter and quickly tilt the pan from side to side so that the batter spreads out thinly. Little bubbles should appear on the surface (if they don’t you have poured in too much mixture). Check to see if the bottom is golden use a fish slice to have a look. When it is golden and starting to brown toss or turn it over and cook the other side.
Keep a fork or mini-whisk in the jug so you can give it another beat as you go along.
If you have a lot to make it’s handy to use a piece of fat wrapped in muslin, scrunched up and held with fine string. Then you can just swipe it across the pan each time.
Heat up your pan and add a small piece of fat (about the size of a hazelnut). Allow it to spread over the pan by tipping it back and forward and let it get fairly hot.
These pancakes are best served straight away but can be stored one on top of the other, separated by greaseproof paper, and then wrapped in a tea towel.

INSIDER SECRETS! 3 WAYS TO MEASURE THE SUCCESS OF YOUR PRINTED AD
Y
ou want to grow your business, so you’ve decided to place an ad in a local publication. But how will you know if the campaign has been successful? Only by knowing what works and what doesn’t will you be able to truly measure the impact of your ad. We’ve tapped into our years of experience to put together the following guide that will help you to create a measurable printed ad: Tip #1 Make sure it can actually be measured Your ad should include messaging that asks the consumer to perform an action or provide a response. Use a powerful call to action that will prompt them to do something specific, such as calling a number to redeem an offer. Be sure to mention the benefit they’ll get from responding so they feel like it will be worthwhile! Tip #2 Create an ad unique to the Local Answer Rather than using the same campaign that you’re running elsewhere, making an ad that’s specific to the advertising magazine makes it easier to measure and gives a more honest idea of how well it’s working for you. Here are a few ways to do this: • Promote a particular service or product that you don’t really advertise elsewhere • You could set up a bespoke phone number to be used only for this ad • Create a page on your website specifically for Local Answer readers. Tailor the content of this page so that it’s in-line with the messaging in the ad so that the customer Page 26
journey flows well and is uninterrupted • Consider offering an exclusive Local Answer discount code that the audience needs to quote. This way, you know they’ve come to you through seeing the printed ad Tip #3 Get your testing hat on Don’t be afraid to brainstorm and come up with a few different ad concepts. Think about two or three variations of an ad and have a slight change in each version. We’d recommend only changing one aspect of each ad so that you can easily identify which element is effective. You can then run the ads in consecutive issues of an advertising magazine, like the Local Answer, and see which one achieved the most enquiries/sales. Finally By implementing some of these approaches, you’ll be able to monitor the performance of your ad. If you’d like more information about the Local Answer, we’d really love to hear from you.

Football - The ‘Boro
SO FAR, SO GOOD - WE'RE THEREABOUTS!
N
eil Warnock’s hopes at the start of the season were that we would be somewhere near the business end of the table at the turn of the year and with just over half the games played to date, ‘Boro have certainly achieved that aim. Sitting in seventh place and just three points behind sixth place Bournemouth with a game in hand is a very promising position to find ourselves. But following the last two contrasting performances as I write – losing at home to Birmingham and then winning away at Forest – it would be easy to again comment on a lack of consistency. It’s fair to say, however, that the Birmingham result owed much to the after effects of the Covid virus so we perhaps shouldn’t read too much into that one. Conversely, we should really take a lot of satisfaction from the excellent ‘Forest performance, not least because it saw the eagerly awaited return of Johnny Howson. And boy, did he prove Page 28
what a miss he’s been since his injury. Completely controlling the midfield and providing tremendous support to both the back four and the players in front of him he showed how much better the team is when he’s in it. So looking at the next few weeks there’s again a big contrast in the teams we will face with two winnable home games against Rotherham and Blackburn followed by visits to top three sides Norwich and Brentford. It’s pretty obvious that if we are to maintain a place in and around the play-offs then we would hope to see a minimum of six and perhaps even eight points from those four games. But in this league you just never know. One apparent uncertainty is the guessing game that is the January transfer window. Neil Warnock has frequently announced his acute awareness of the financial situation surrounding Covid and is obviously reluctant to spend Steve Gibson’s money unless it will really improve the February 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

team. I have to say that so far I have heard no potential incoming names that particularly excite and with the return of Johnny Howson and the imminent addition to the strike force of (prior to his injury) the vastly improved Ashley Fletcher, it’s hard to see where anyone else would actually fit in. The goalkeeper and possibly the best back four in the championship currently pick themselves, while another excellent performance and goal from George Saville, the continued whole hearted efforts from Marcus Tavernier and the hard working reliability of Sam Morsey suggests that any newcomer would – like Patrick Roberts – be merely warming the bench. To me, January signings tend to suggest that the players are not
particularly important to their own clubs so why would they improve ours? There’s also the danger of disruption to team spirit -something Warnock has managed to develop in this group of players – so why risk it? I’ve said before that at no point in the season have we been particularly outplayed and there’s really only Norwich that has shown that little bit extra over the season so there’s still every chance that with a bit of luck on the injury front we could continue to compete right to the end. We’ve reached the really exciting time of the season when every result can have a huge impact on the league table. At least this year we are most certainly looking upwards and not over our shoulder with trepidation. And that’s all thanks to the very likeable Neil Warnock. He’s been a great signing!
