Local News

Goole landlord fined £2000 after failing to comply with improvement notices A Goole landlord who failed to comply with improvement notices for a vulnerable tenant and threatened to evict her if the improvements were too costly has been fined £2,000 by magistrates. Michael Farrar, 57, of High Street, Airmyn, saw his case held at Hull Magistrates’ Court on Friday, 20 August. Mr Farrar pleaded guilty by post to the noncompliance of a Housing Act notice served under sections 11 and 12 of the Housing Act 2004. The case was brought to court by East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s private sector housing team following a complaint in December 2019 from a tenant living in a property at Pasture Road in Goole.

An inspection was undertaken in January 2020 following a complaint the tenant had made to the council of disrepair at ‘45a Pasture Road, Goole’. The property is a one bedroom first floor flat located above a food shop. Multiple hazards were identified during this inspection including excess cold (an insufficient heating system and a window that was difficult to close) and fire (lack of a necessary escape window from the bedroom, lack of a required interlinked alarm system and no evidence of sufficient fire protection from the commercial property below). Mr Farrar failed to provide a timescale to undertake the necessary repairs despite repeated requests, he also threatened to evict the tenant if the work was too expensive. With the onset of the Coronavirus

pandemic, he then used this as a reason not to send contractors to the property because of the tenant’s ill health. Under the Housing Act 2004, the council has a duty to serve notice where a Category 1 hazard is identified and has the power to serve notice where a Category 2 hazard is identified. Following discussions with the tenant she made it clear that she would like for works to be undertaken and as such the decision was taken to serve notice. Improvement notices were then served requiring works to be carried out to reduce the category 1 (Excess Cold) and category 2 (Fire) hazards. These notices were not appealed. Sufficient timescales were given to allow for any potential delays due the Coronavirus pandemic. Despite this, after the notices expired the property was revisited and only a small proportion of the works required had been completed. Farrar was fined a total of £2,000, has to pay a victim surcharge of £190 and full costs of £1,709.70. A total of £3,899.70. Chris Dunnachie, private sector housing manager at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “Officers had on several occasions informed Mr. Farrar that he needed to make essential legal repairs to the property which he chose to ignore. “This is a timely reminder to landlords of their responsibilities to ensure their properties are safe and kept in good order to prevent potential harm to tenants and their families and ultimately prevent the necessity of enforcement action.”

Business What’s On

East Yorkshire Business Expo 2021 - Let’s talk business. There is no doubt that the past eighteen months have been difficult for many businesses across the area.

The Expo is the perfect, cost effective platform from which you can promote your products and services to other local businesses. Tell them how your business has changed, about new services or product ranges, partner in larger projects or just even have the opportunity to talk to other businesses from across the local area, face to face and not on a screen! The Expo team are delighted to inform you that this year we have partnered with Evoke Technologies, a local audio – visual equipment supplier in

Literature

Books for September

The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller Before anyone else is awake, on a perfect August morning, Elle Bishop heads out for a swim in the glorious freshwater pond below The Paper Palace, the gently decaying summer camp in the back woods of Cape Cod where her family has spent every summer for generations. As she passes the house, Elle glances through the screen porch at the uncleared table from the dinner the previous evening: empty wine glasses, candle wax on the tablecloth. Then she dives beneath the surface of the freezing water to the shocking memory of the sudden passionate encounter she had the night before, up against the wall behind the house, as her husband and mother chatted to the guests inside. So begins a story that unfolds over 24 hours and across 50 years, as decades of family legacies, love, lies, secrets, and one unspeakable incident in her childhood lead Elle to the precipice of a lifechanging decision. Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid Set in Malibu in 1983, this highly anticipated novel is Taylor Jenkins Reid’s follow-up to her acclaimed debut Daisy Jones & The Six. It’s the day of Nina Riva’s annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, a talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their baby sister, Kit. The children of legendary singer Mick Riva, the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over. By midnight the party will be completely out of control – and by morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames. Malibu Rising is a story about one unforgettable night in the life of a family: a moment where they each have to choose what they will keep from the people who made them – and what they will leave behind.

Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason Everyone tells Martha Friel she is clever and beautiful, a brilliant writer who has been loved every day of her adult life by one man, her husband Patrick. So why is everything broken? Why is Martha – on the edge of 40 – friendless, practically jobless and so often sad? And why did Patrick decide to leave? Maybe – as she has long believed – there is something wrong with her. Something that broke when a little bomb went off in her brain, at 17, and left her changed in a way that no doctor or therapist has ever been able to explain. Forced to return to her childhood home to live with her dysfunctional, bohemian parents (but without the help of her devoted, foulmouthed sister Ingrid), Martha has one last chance to find out whether a life is ever too broken to fix – or whether, maybe, by starting over, she will get to write a better ending for herself. Palace of the Drowned by Christine Mangan It’s 1966 and Frankie Croy retreats to her friend’s vacant palazzo in Venice. Years have passed since the initial success of Frankie’s debut novel, and she has spent her career trying to live up to the expectations. Now, after a particularly scathing review of her most recent work, alongside a very public breakdown, she needs to recharge and get re-inspired. Then Gilly appears. A precocious young admirer eager to make friends, Gilly seems determined to insert herself into Frankie’s life. But there’s something about the young woman that makes Frankie think: how much of what Gilly tells her is the truth? As a series of lies and revelations emerge, the lives of these two women are tragically altered as the catastrophic 1966 flooding of Venice ravages the city. Suspenseful and transporting, Palace of the Drowned brings the mystery of Venice to life while delivering a twisted tale of ambition and human nature.

Food & Nutrition

Is gluten-free worth it?

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, rye and sometimes oats. For around one in 100 people with coeliac disease it can cause diarrhoea, weight loss and fatigue. Now people who don’t have this condition are removing it from their diets in a bid to lose weight and eat more healthily. But are they any healthier?

‘There’s more to a gluten-free diet than cutting out bread, cereal and pasta. Gluten is also found in beer, vinegar, biscuits, soy sauce, noodles and crisps, among many other foods, so cutting it out entirely takes effort and planning,’ says Janie Kinnersley a food relationship practitioner. ‘I’m gluten-free because gluten doesn’t agree with me. Since switching, my levels of stamina and energy have increased, but I’m not suggesting that people opt for this to be healthier.’ Many people also think a gluten-free diet will help them lose weight, but this isn’t entirely true, as dietitian Hedi La-Roco, explains: ‘A-one-sizefitsall approach doesn’t work as each person has specific needs. Often gluten-free products are really high insugars and calories. ‘Avoiding processed foods in favour of more fruit and veg is always a good idea but choosing gluten-free without the medical need for it doesn’t necessarily guarantee success and may actually lead to weight gain!’ Is a GF diet an ideal one? If you have coeliac disease or gluten intolerance, the answer is a firm yes; for everyone else, not necessarily. There is no reason for you to exclude wheat products from your diet, and it can

Please mention

sometimes lead you to make less healthful choices. For example, if you have a choice between quinoa (gluten-free) and white bread, the gluten-free choice is better. However, if you are in a situation where your choice is between sprouted wheat bread and a heavily processed GF product, the wheat product is going to have more nutrients and be the better option. Choosing foods that are less processed and eating more fruits and vegetables is likely to be healthier than going GF for individuals who can tolerate gluten. That said, it is possible to eat a balanced GF diet; it just takes extra work, and tends to cost considerably more money. Also, remember that what works for you might not necessarily work for someone else. Just because someone says going gluten-free is helpful, it does not mean it is automatically beneficial for everyone else. We recommend consulting a registered dietitian if you go GF to ensure your diet meets your nutritional requirements. What should I do if I am worried that gluten might be a problem for me? If you think you might have coeliac disease or gluten intolerance, see your doctor before going on a gluten-free diet. Express your concerns with your doctor, and ask to be tested for coeliac disease. A blood test can tell with 99% accuracy whether you have coeliac disease, but the tests don’t work properly if you aren’t eating gluten. In addition, whatever symptoms you are experiencing that lead you to believe that gluten is harming you could be caused by another disease or disorder that requires a different treatment method. Whether you are diagnosed with a gluten-related disorder, or find another cause of your symptoms, it’s best to have a doctor’s opinion before taking your health into your own hands.

Shopping/Style/Trends

Why is vintage so popular? Vintage is everywhere – as soon as something’s been around for a while it effectively becomes ‘vintage’, being replaced by something newer that’s the latest flavour of the month.

Indeed, just as we all get older, when young people replace those nearing middle-age as the younger generation, you might argue the older generation has then become ‘vintage’; not that they’re time is up, not that they’re past it and certainly not that they’re no use to anyone anymore. The world and life – thankfully! – doesn’t work that way.

And, in fact, neither should clothes; garments that have been around for a while need not be thrown away or adjusted and recycled if they’re still in good condition – their time shouldn’t be up as they’re not past it. And it’s the waking up to this fact by millions of people that’s led to the rise of so-called vintage fashion; the realisation that older clothes are still wearable because they still look great – in fact, they’re not just wearable; they *should* be worn! But does that alone explain why vintage clothing is enjoying a particular boon right now? Or is there a little bit more to it? The celebrity factor Like or not, in the past few years, the renaissance of vintage may in part be attributable to the fact so many celebrities have been photographed and appear in newspapers and magazines and on the Internet happily wearing vintage in public. This, in many people’s minds then, has helped underline the reality there’s no barrier at all to wearing vintage and looking entirely with-it and

Please mention

modern – and with that, using vintage clothes to help carve out and express one’s own style and individual dress sense. And tied to this is the fact that, increasingly, people may be coming to the conclusion – inevitably then (to explain the above point), celebrities among them – that modern, up-tothe-minute high-street fashion is becoming rather generic, a little too homogenous. To wear a good deal of today’s new fashion is too often to look like everyone else. By contrast, when worn with care and imagination, vintage fashion – or newly made retro fashion – can transcend time; if it was smartly worn back in the day and looked cool, elegant, beautiful or simply sensational, why on earth wouldn’t it now? After all, trends on the catwalk and (supposedly) new fashion in the high-street outlets are forever influenced by past trends – what goes around comes around. And that means, conversely perhaps, that one never looks more on-trend than when subtly wearing vintage or retro. Self-expression Maybe most of all, though, vintage/ retro is enjoying an undeniable time in the sun right now because it’s an enabler – it ensures its enthusiasts can be enthusiasts of themselves; that is, of their own sense of style and fashion and how they wish to be seen – how they want to present themselves to the outside world and what about their own personalities they want to share through how they dress. It can be – flying in the face of homogenous highstreet garments – about selfexpression. And, through that, about liberation and free-styling.

Many people turn to and develop an interest in vintage/ retro through seeking it out or, by accident rather than design, discovering that ‘one piece ‘ that they have to have, which becomes that favourite in their wardrobe that they constantly pull out and mix and match with so many other things. That, of course, is wonderful, but it can lead them further into the wide world of vintage clothing online; it can become a door that opens them up to all the possibilities out there. To use the wardrobe as a metaphor then, that one piece can open the door into a magical Narnia-like world of opportunity that’s vintage/ retro fashion. But, unlike Narnia, the marvellous thing is that you can return to the modern day and sport your vintage garb along with today’s fashion because they all mix together so well; after all, fashion fads and trends come and go, but vintage is forever – it’s everywhere.

September gardening September is a busy time in the garden. Things can quickly change from summer to the onset of winter, so if you are organised you can really get on top of jobs now to save time and work next spring and to prevent having to work in colder, harsher conditions. The Cutting Garden

Sowing & growing l Plant out and transplant biennials. l Divide and replant perennials to ease any

congested areas. Later in the month bring tender perennials, such as pelargoniums, inside to protect from the frosts. l Continue sowing hardy annuals for early flowering next year – you’ll get bigger, better plants which can flower a good six weeks earlier than those spring sown. For example, briza, bupleurum, calendula, centaurea, Papaver rhoeas, Papaver somniferum, and scabious can all be direct sown now. l Clear your annuals as they go over and add them to the compost heap. l Sow a pack of Viola ‘Heartsease’ to flower in about eight weeks’ time, right through winter. l It’s urgent to get wallflowers in place now. These spring-flowering biennials need to get their roots down well before flowering. l Sow yellow rattle. This is key to the success of any wild flower patch as it reduces the vigour of certain grasses.

Bulbs & tubers l Now is a good time to start planting your spring

bulbs – the ground will still be nice and warm from the summer months, and it gives plenty of time for the new roots to bed in before the spring sunshine arrives. l Inside, have a go at forcing some hyacinths or amaryllis now for colour over the festive season. l Plant pots of smaller bulbs such as muscari, iris, crocus, chionodoxa, scilla and anemones. Keep watered during the winter if we have any dry spells (but lift off the ground to prevent waterlogging which is just as bad) to provide pots full of colour for the spring.

l Plant small bulbs in to your lawn. Think of jazzing

up an area of lawn or rough grass with crocuses such as C. tommasinianus, C. vernus and C. chrysanthus hybrids. All are happy in thick turf with the sun fully on them.

Harvesting

Lovely things to pick and arrange from your garden in September: l Bulbs: gladioli and acidanthera l Hardy annuals: Euphorbia oblongata, sunflowers and scabious l Half-hardy annuals and dahlias: all l Perennials: Euphorbia ceratocarpa, salvias, heleniums, phlox, echinacea, rudbeckias l Shrubs and trees: hydrangeas, Viburnum opulus, berries and leaves. l Pick a large bunch of late-flowering phlox, such as the pure white ‘Mount Fuji’. It thrives in sun and shade. l Pick hydrangeas before they are damaged by wind and rain. l Pick a last bunch of roses before they brown.

Perennials, Shrubs & Trees

Pruning & tidying l Keep deadheading and weeding. l Collect seed from perennials and annuals and

store them somewhere cool and dry. l Deadhead dahlias. l Pinch out the tips of wallflowers to promote bushier growth. l Early chrysanths are a must in the garden, and will give you a decent few weeks of bloom before the worst of the autumn weather. l Prune climbing/rambling roses once they’ve finished flowering.

Planting l Later in the month plant

spring bedding such as wallflowers, primulas and violas for a colourful spring display. l Start planting new perennials as well as trees/shrubs/climbers. l Plant pot grown new trees whilst the soil is still warm and moist.

Gardening The Kitchen Garden

Vegetables l When you think you’ve harvested your last

potatoes, carefully dig over the veg bed, collect those that were still lurking under the surface, and then dig over ready to plant some green manures. l Bean and pea plants that have finished their harvest can be cut back, leaving the roots to be dug in to the soil to provide extra nitrogen for future crops. l Continue to feed tomato plants until all the fruits have finished growing and ripening. l Sow spring onions – these will be ready to eat before the frosts get going in most parts of the country. l Remove any crops that have finished leaving unneeded areas clear – weeding and tidying for the winter. l Sow Swiss chard, winter spinach, broad beans and hardy peas. l Keep watering winter squash and pumpkins if the weather is hot. This will prevent their growth from being checked. l Prepare a bed for autumn-planted shallots. Incorporate well-rotted compost into the area to improve fertility. If your ground is wet, a raised bed may be a better option. Plant the sets from the end of the month, with the tip just protruding from the soil. l Do a last outside sowing of radish. With the soil still warm and moist with dew, you should be eating these in four to five weeks.

Salad & Herbs l Direct sow a row of rocket. It seems late to still be

sowing seed, but salad rocket does not bat an eyelid at the cold or wet. l Sow all your autumn-winter picking salad leaves and herbs if not done in August. l Cut and hang herbs to dry for using in the kitchen over winter. l Sow coriander now and you may be harvesting until April or May next year. Sow in a row outside, or into a gutterpipe for planting out in a month’s time. l Long-season herbs, such as chives, lovage and sorrel, should all be cut to the ground. They will be up again in a couple of weeks with fresh leaves. Drench with slow-release, potash-rich liquid comfrey fertiliser to encourage strong regrowth. l If weather is dry, water well. Pot up less hardy herbs such as parsley, chives and French tarragon and bring inside into a sunny, frost free spot.
