In The Garden
R
ecycle your Christmas tree by shredding or taking it to any voluntary run organisations who will dispose of it for you. Remove any snow from greenhouse and conservatory roofs and also from tree branches and shake it off shrubs to prevent breakages. Cut off old leaves from hellebores to expose the flowers and mulch underneath with bark or grit to stop the flowers being splashed with mud when it rains. If the weather is very cold try grouping planted containers together next to a south facing wall for extra protection. Check that pots close to walls are getting adequate rain water and if not water on a regular basis. Check your greenhouse insulation is still in place and that your heater, if you have one, is working properly. Sow sweet peas in long tubes and put in a heated propagator. Once they have germinated they can be moved to a cold greenhouse or cold frame. Ventilate the greenhouse on mild and sunny days but don’t forget to close down well before dark. Page 14
On fine dry days walk around your garden and inspect that all is as it should be e.g. no plants have come loose at the base with wind rock, tree ties are not broken, tree stakes are not loose, no branches have snapped and left jagged edges where disease could enter etc
Lawns New turf can be laid in mild weather but not if the ground is either frozen or water logged. Lawn edges can also be repaired to save time later on. You can also deal with humps or hollows in your lawn now. Cut a cross with a spade and carefully peel back the turf. Either remove or add some soil to the required level and put back the turf, pushing the cut edges together. Keep off the lawn as much as possible during bad weather, either cold or rain.
Fruit and Vegetables Plant new fruit trees or bushes if the ground is not frozen or waterlogged. Cut down and remove the stumps of any old fruit trees that are not now worth their keep. Prune currants and gooseberries. Place cloches over strawberry plants for an earlier crop. January 2017 | The Local Answer Magazine
Su ppor t You r Local Bu sin esses
Start to force rhubarb by placing a large pot, bucket or special forcing jar over the crown. Sow broad beans in pots and place in a cold frame for planting out in the spring. For early crops of lettuce, radish, spring onions, etc, sow the seeds in trays or pots and germinate on a windowsill or in a heated propagator. Once germinated the seedlings can then be put in a greenhouse for planting out next month. Onions grown from seed can also be germinated now in the same way but do not plant out until March.

Wildlife As most of the berries and seeds will be gone from the garden by now it is most important that you keep the bird table regularly topped up. At this time of year they really like anything fatty such as meat, cheese, cooking fat, coconut or any other nuts that have not been salted. Some birds such as thrushes and blackbirds prefer to eat on the ground so if you have any fruit that is past its best these could be left in an open part of the garden. Keep the bird bath topped up with fresh water and make sure it is not frozen. If your pond is frozen over hold a saucepan with boiling water on top of the ice and wait until it melts a hole. Do not smash through the ice as this will harm fish and wildlife.

THE NEW AUDI S5 COUPE - BEAUTIFULLY BUILT AND AN IMPRESSIVE PERFORMER
I
f you want a great start to 2017 take a look at this superb new release from Audi. Offering all the advantages you’d expect both from German engineering and a sporty coupe, it looks superb, is beautifully built and supplies loads of hi-tech kit. Perhaps its biggest advantage, however, is the subtle way it provides the speed you’d expect from something a lot bigger and more obviously powerful like the recently released saloon and estate models. You’ll still be able to differentiate between this and the more conservative S line models, though, by the S5-specific singleframe chrome grille, satin finish wing mirrors and subtly different front and rear bumpers with a matt diffuser insert. But while the styling isn’t particularly revolutionary compared to its predecessor, Audi have made some real improvements in the engine department with the original Page 18
3.0-litre supercharged V6 being superseded by a turbocharged 3.0-litre unit of the same configuration that produces 349bhp and a healthy 500Nm of torque. The gearbox is a standard eight speed automatic. There’s some clever tech involved as well, with the turbo placed inside the cylinder banks to improve response, and that gives excellent acceleration with the car measured from 0-62mph in 4.7 seconds. In British driving conditions we don’t think that’s particularly important, but the power is certainly there if you need it with Audi claiming a top speed of 155mph. More advantageous, we feel, is the comfort it provides with its four-wheel drive offering excellent road holding security throughout the year. The ride is also pretty quiet with the interior well insulated from road, wind and engine noise making it an excellent long distance car that’s unlikely to irritate the senses. January 2017 | The Local Answer Magazine
Su ppor t You r Local Bu sin esses
Efficiency and economy are also reasonable for a sporty coupe with Audi claiming 38.2mpg and emissions of 170g/km CO2. That equates to a fairly reasonable £210 road tax. Internally, the car provides a slick cabin design that can be given a £250 upgrade with Audi’s 12.3 inch ‘Virtual Cockpit.’ The widescreen digital dial pack is teamed with an 8.3-inch infotainment display that includes Audi’s Navigation Plus system as standard, so there’s plenty of scope to choose what you show on the two screens.

The best parts of the interior, however, is its obvious material quality and its immaculate finish. Every fitting feels solid and expensive, every knob and switch is pleasurable to touch and the smoothness of performance is tangible. It’s also made very roomy by being a genuine four seater with plenty of space for four adults that includes generous front seat width and good head and leg room in the rear. There’s also a very practical boot, with the 465-litre capacity the same as the A5 on which it is based and which Audi claim is the best in its class. So, while the car is perhaps not the most dynamic on the market in terms of performance, it’s a beautifully produced, solid and reliable in all weathers and all road conditions car and if you like to live life at a relaxed pace with no nasty surprises it’s well worth a look!

Humour GARDENING - IT’S NOT ALWAYS HARD WORK!
P
erhaps January isn’t the best time to think about gardening but we decided that since it’s one of the few months of the year when you don’t have to worry about all the work that needs to be done it’s the perfect time to look at the more humorous side of what is really a lovely hobby. Enjoy! The vicar was congratulating one of his parishioners on the way he had transformed a piece of waste land into a really beautiful garden. ‘It’s wonderful,’ said the vicar, ‘what man can achieve with the help of the Almighty.’‘That’s true, vicar, ‘said the man ‘but you should have seen what it was like when the Almighty had it all to himself!’ ‘Sooner or later,’ said a woman to her husband as they looked out onto their garden, ‘you’re going to have to make a proper scarecrow to keep the birds off the flower beds.’ ‘What’s wrong with the one we’ve got now?’ he asked. ‘Nothing,’ replied his wife, ‘but my mother’s arms are getting tired.’ The man who had the best garden in the street was asked by one of his neighbours what the secret of his lovely garden was. The man replied that it was all down to water. ‘Really,’ said his neighbour, ‘What sort of water?’‘Well,’ said the gardener, ‘It’s mostly sweat!’ Two men were walking down their street from the pub when it started snowing. ‘Great’ said one of the men, ‘I love it when it snows.’ ‘Why?’ asked his neighbour. ‘Because,’ replied the first, ‘when there’s four inches of snow on the ground is the only time my garden looks as good as everybody else’s.’ A little boy was taken to his granddad’s allotment so he could help his granddad dig Page 34
up some potatoes for dinner. After they’d dug up three roots and got enough potatoes they headed for home. ‘Did you enjoy that?’ asked the granddad. ‘Well,’ said the little lad, ‘It was all right, but I don’t know why you buried them in the first place!’ The best definition of a garden we ever heard was that ‘It’s a thing of beauty and a job forever!’ (We have to thank John Keats for that one!) Two guys who had neighbouring allotments entered their potatoes in the local show. One is declared the winner and immediately swaggers over to his neighbour and boasts ‘I’m not surprised I won, to be honest, because I thought your potatoes looked a little puny in comparison to mine’‘That’s true,’ said the other gardener, ‘but I grew them to fit my mouth, not yours!’ The manager of a garden centre was walking round when he noticed one of his salesmen in conversation with a prospective customer so he sidled across to hear what was being said. He was astounded to hear the salesman saying ‘No, we haven’t had any of that for a long time and I have no idea when we’ll be getting any more.’ Once the customer left, the manager angrily walked over to the salesman to give him a telling off. ‘Never let me hear you say you can’t get something for a customer. Whatever they want we can always get it on order and deliver it, do you understand?’ The assistant nodded . ‘Anyway,’ said the manager, ‘what did he want?’ The assistant looked at him smugly and said ‘Rain.’ And finally.... Knowledge is when you know that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it into a fruit salad! January 2017 | The Local Answer Magazine

Football
A NEW YEAR - A NEW APPROACH AND HOPEFULLY NEW CLUBS FOR TWO EXCELLENT PROFESSIONALS
T
he most difficult thing about being a football manager is that whatever decisions you make and whatever team you select there will be a percentage of fans who think you’re right and an even larger percentage who think you’re wrong. Leaving out Adama Traore for the Hull game, for instance, was a decision that was met with enormous scepticism from many, yet it was a cross from Victor Fischer - his direct replacement - that ended up winning us the game. And while that might suggest a piece of exceptional managerial acumen from Aitor Karanka there are many who would still query why Traore wasn’t brought on later in the game when Hull had finally decided to move out of their own half and open up a bit. His pace would surely have been their biggest problem. ‘Boro, by then of course, had typically dropped back twenty yards once they’d scored and that allowed Hull to create genuine goal scoring opportunities. It’s something we ‘Boro fans have seen many times before and indeed have come to expect. The reason I am bringing this up now is that deadlines for this edition make the Hull game the last I can comment on and anything after that would be pure speculation. That’s why now I’ve had my little bleat about a game we actually won - I would like to put a more positive slant on the Karanka decision making to date. We’ll never know the truth of the Jordan Rhodes signing (unless Karanka reveals it in his autobiography in about twenty years time and by then we probably won’t care) but his Page 36
treatment of the player since he was signed doesn’t really leave a lot to the imagination. I feel sorry for Jordan Rhodes because he has never been given any sort of chance to prove himself. In the only game he started in the Premiership he played really well but was subsequently dropped and has since been on and off the bench with no chance to show what he can do. David Nugent has also been given little or no opportunity to prove himself even though he - like Rhodes - has been a consistent goal scorer all his career. Yet here we are (at the time of writing anyway) in a reasonable position that - were this the end of the season would be greeted as real success by both fans and pundits alike. Coming up to the Premiership and holding your own is not something many clubs accomplish, so the fact we’ve done it so far speaks volumes for the way Aitor has not only created exceptional organisation but has also instilled a wonderful combination of discipline and team spirit. If he can maintain that throughout the season we’ll continue to climb the table - especially now that now we’ve overcome the early season jitters that saw us lose points to teams that were obviously not as good as us. (Stoke, Crystal Palace, West Brom, Leicester City and - dare I say - Arsenal, are perfect examples and were performances that should have brought us at least an extra nine points.) So, by the time you read this the January window will have opened and with any luck both Nugent and Rhodes will be sought after by clubs who recognise their goal scoring prowess and are willing to give them regular first team January 2017 | The Local Answer Magazine

football. To see them both being ignored week after week despite a twelve goal drought from the first choice striker is something none of us have been happy to see, but the points tally and our position in the table demand that we have to trust Aitor implicitly and respect his judgement. There aren’t many who would have predicted some of the tremendous results we’ve enjoyed so far. Those that did could have made a small fortune at William Hill! Whatever’s happened since I wrote this, though, I’m pretty sure we’ve continued to make a good fist of things and we should be starting the new year in a position that gives our survival hopes real credence. And despite the beliefs of the extra fifteen thousand or so supporters we’ve suddenly attracted in the last twelve months, both I - and the other fifteen thousand faithful who have stuck with ‘Boro through thick and very, very thin over many years will consider that a real achievement. So let’s just stick with Aitor and his beliefs. If we do I think the future looks very bright indeed! Have a great 2017 and a wonderful end to the season!
