There’s certainly a bit of a Nip in the Air today! Not surprising, given that we are fast approaching the time of year when our clocks turn back an hour. Sunday 31st October is the date this year, so we still have a couple of weeks to savour the lighter evenings. It’s been a while since our last competition, so we thought a fun ‘Find the Pumpkin’ Cash Prize Draw might go down well? Enter by email, for the chance to win £25. See page 11 for details, and remember, ‘You’ve got to be in it, to win it !’ There is a lovely outside family event taking place at the near-by National Trust property Polesden Lacey in Bookham this month; ‘Polesden Ignites’ promises to be a wonderful evening out - see page 4 for details. Cobham players take to the boards again this month. If you are able, please do support this fabulous local group and enjoy a good evening out as they entertain you, see page 12 for the low down… More keen thespians will be busy at The Barn Theatre; this is also well worth a look see, more info about this can be found on page 30. It’s always good to receive information about local events so do email over the details - we will do our best to spread the word in our upcoming issues, space permitting of course. I look forward to hearing from you at ros@looklocalmagazine.co.uk. Wishing you all a good month ahead,, Keep Well, until next time,

FIRE & LIGHT TRAIL COMES TO POLESDEN LACEY THIS OCTOBER
A new after-dark experience is coming to the Edwardian gardens at the National Trust’s Polesden Lacey this autumn. From 22 October - 7 November, visitors will have the chance to see Polesden Lacey like never before at the first-ever IGNITE at Polesden Lacey. Deep in the Surrey Hills, only four miles from Dorking, Polesden Lacey was once home to the famous Edwardian hostess Margaret Greville, who entertained royalty and the celebrities of her time. The gardens offer something for every season and autumn is no exception: once the vibrant and rich greens of summer disappear the whole estate is encompassed in gold as the leaves turn. As twilight falls, the IGNITE magic begins. Expect the unexpected, with glimpses of fairies that could be dancing in lanterns, fiery fish and woodland wildlife sculpted in willow, as you stroll through an enchanting landscape. Lit by lanterns, wander between flickering flames and majestic trees - from one amazing space to another - on a quietly magical meander. Within this fiery interpretation of flora and fantasy, set to an atmospheric soundscape, there are moments of playful discovery and reflection.
4 Looklocal Magazine - October 2021
The trail has been specially designed for visitors of all ages to enjoy. “We’re so excited to welcome visitors to Polesden Lacey for this enchanting trail this autumn. It is the first time we’ve hosted something like this at Polesden Lacey and we can’t wait to see the gardens illuminated in such a magical way,” said Katherine Mills, National Trust General Manager for Polesden Lacey. IGNITE trails are brought to you by Sony Music and hosted by the National Trust. The trail is created by Culture Creative. Tickets: Advanced from... Adult £15, Child £10.00, Family £45 (2 adults & 2 children). Free entry for carers & children 2 & under. Parking is £7 per car & free for National Trust members. Visit website to book: www. nationaltrust.org.uk/ polesden-lacey-ignite| Polesden Lacey, Great Bookham, RH5 6BD Book your tickets safe in the knowledge that if Covid-19 Government legislation requires cancellation, you can re-book your slot or get a refund. COVID-19 guidelines are being followed and processes are in place to maintain cleanliness and aid social/ physical distancing.
This month we caught up with one of our new clients, Neil Dickins, to show him around his new property. Within three weeks of the house purchase we did all external work identified by the survey as needing attention and internal beautification to bring it up to spec before the first guests arrived. Tell us a little about yourself? “I fell in love with theatre whilst at McMaster Uni in Canada, and was told I must go to London. I duly came to study Shakespeare but became ensnared in the thorns of an English rose (the red of Lancashire version) and never left.” What do you do? “I founded Intellectual Capital Resources (IC Resources) 22 years ago to focus on ‘deep tech’ recruitment (all the tech that’s in your phone, or a satellite, or an electric car….ie everything except IT). The company is now 70 people with offices in Reading, London, Munich, China and the US.” What were you hoping to achieve when making an investment with BTLH? “I make very high risk, seed stage investments in tech companies, and wanted an investment to balance my portfolio. Like all assets, property values fluctuate but the likely downside compared to stocks (or early stage companies!!) is lower.” Why did you choose BTLH? “For me the most critical word in seeking success is ‘niche’. I loved the niche, under-represented ‘mid-term let’ idea as outlined by Adrian. My due diligence consisted of meeting his business partners Alex and Lucy, who also impressed me greatly and convinced me that the company was solid and would deliver on its promises. Advertising feature
The great thing about BTLH is the space it has carved out for itself needs a particular kind of focus and attention, which I don’t think potential competitors will understand even if they try to emulate BTLH. The other reason, of course, is that the ROI makes sense.” What has your experience been working with BTLH? “Excellent from the outset. I’m 100% confident that the outstanding service levels will continue. We’ve also rented the house out for a brilliant medium-term rental even before it has been listed, which I’m sure is a positive portent of things to come.” Any advice to someone else who might find themselves in your situation? “Call me to invest in some crazy risky early stage tech companies. Eschew sensible investments like BTLH!” So… if you find yourself looking for an investment all piquant with crazy risk and excitement, contact Neil Dickins direct to hand over your hard-earned cash for him to invest in some dodgy early stage tech companies – and if you feel more like Neil, then get in touch with BTLH and see if we can find you a little gem like his so you can make a sensible investment. Neil’s parting words to us were: “I might start thinking about my next project with you guys…” You heard it here first! Can BTLH help you find the perfect property?

Wifi solutions- getting covered The requirements to have better coverage for your Wifi appear to be increasing daily, especially with more devices requiring internet connection than ever before. Yes, this could be upstairs in the kids bedrooms, in the study or in the new garden office. There is a product which is low in cost, simple to install, works brilliantly and offers some really useful features-which really makes you ask “Why did I not do this before?” The specific product I am referring to is the TP Link Deco E4 - 3 pack and costs just £150.00 As its name implies, the kit consists of 3 units (transmitters), one unit plugs into your router with the other two units linking between themselves. Usually they are positioned in areas near where you have signal weaknesses. The system uses “MESH” technology and, in short, this means that as you move between different areas the transmitters cover, the transmitter with the stronger signal will take your connection to ensure you always have the strongest and most resilient connection. This also means you have the same wifi network covering the whole property, making the connection of devices much simpler. We have sold many of these units and have been impressed with how simple they are to setup by many, non technical home users. Usually they are up and running within 10 minutes. We best recommend the use of the free smart phone/tablet app, which helps you setup the units quickly, and offers many useful facilities like “bedtime” mode, which turns the Wifi off at predetermined times and days of the week. You also can setup different Wifi active times for different devices. For example: your 10 year old child can only have wifi access until 7pm, whereas your 16 year old child’s device can have access until 10pm. With some of the apps you can also “content control”. This can block access to unsuitable websites from specific devices by category, such as “adult content”, or “firearms content”. You also can specify specific websites you may want to block by typing in the website address.
Know your stuff….. Recently, we have been reporting on the number and type of scams at the moment. We feel a large part of the scammers success is that they catch you when you are least expecting their call, and logic and reason just go straight out of the window. For example, a common scam is where they call supposedly being BT, and saying your Broadband is reporting problems. They obviously use BT as they are the UK’s largest Broadband provider, but if you are with Virgin Media or Talk Talk or Tec Res, why would BT be calling you to discuss the service they do not provide? The simple answer is they wouldn’t be! We urge you to always be vigilant and sceptical on these calls. Do not enter into a detailed conversation with the caller. Stop the call by hanging up and don’t use your phone for 5 minutes (as this will terminate their call). Should you have any concerns, independently find the phone number of the firm in question, and call them yourself-it is very rare that these “big” firms will be calling you.

Book Reviews OCTOBER 2021 ‘You Will Never Be Forgotten by Mary South’ (Hardback £14.99) I loved the imagination, insight and pitch-black humour in these short stories. Mary South plays with the possible roles of technology in our future, the emotional and very human challenges of trying to augment our lives in new ways. I loved the way she mingles the real and already-present influence of technology, from telephones to brain surgery, with situations yet to be experienced. Can our slowly evolved minds keep up with these radical leaps into the future? ‘The Outlaw Ocean’ by Ian Urbina (Paperback £9.99) This is a riveting tour of the hidden crimes and dramas on the world’s oceans. Ian Urbina spent five years, including three at sea, investigating the stories of trafficking, exploitation, illegal fishing, and many other dangerous games being played out on the open seas. He travels to nations and within organisations trying to redress the damage being done, from tiny countries like Palau fighting against illegal shark fin fishing in their territory, Sea Shepherd’s high-risk, highspeed chases in Antarctic waters, and those trying to rescue the many people trapped into slavery. A fascinating, important and astonishing book. ‘Flavour’ by Yotam Ottolengi (Hardback £27.00) Yotam is back with ‘Flavour’, solely dedicated to vegetables. ‘Flavour’ takes Ottolenghis’s trademark style of vegetable cooking to the next level and dives into flavour combinations that let individual ingredients shine and enhance one another. The book is broken down into three sections, Process, Pairing and Produce. It is easy to follow and the results are amazing whether you consider yourself a good chef or a good family cook. Flavour is also beautiful, from the cover to all the sumptuous glossy photos of the recipes. A fantastic gift to treat yourself, or as a sumptuous gift for someone at Christmas. : 01932 862903 : info@cobhambooks.com : www.cobhambooks.com : 12A Anyards Rd, Cobham, KT11 2JZ

Tesla MODEL 3 CAR REVIEW BY TED MACAULEY
If you never ever again wanted to queue up for a filler at a petrol station I have the answer. It comes in the attractive shape of the updated Model 3 Tesla, a real treat and a bargain if ever there was one. It is not the widest known motor on the UK scene but that does not prevent it being not only a bargain buy but a joy to have on your driveway and to carry you in comfort and safety on the most arduous of journeys. It is Tesla’s smaller, simpler and most affordable car - their valiant and shrewd hit on the hotly contested range of cars, the world’s first mass market electric vehicle and, to my mind, a winner. The Model-3 is fully electric. As you kip peacefully and dream of getting value for your lolly the five-seater can be charged overnight and greet you all ready to go after breakfast with a range of 300-plus miles on its all-wheel drive facility. Car comfort zones, with money saving attributes, do not come any better than this little beauty designed and delivered from its California birthplace at your behest. Tesla reckon it is their best car yet - and I fully endorse their belief. It enjoys an impressive range of qualities making it safe, fast and as techuically advanced and cheaper than, say, the renowned Audi 4. And when you are on the road it is dead simple to plug in to a handy facility en route - at just about every

petrol station or with a visit to Tesla’s far reaching charging network. And it may all be achieved in just three minutes. Whoopee! So what else eases your needs? The car’s 15inch touchscreen offers integrated media updates, communications, cabin control plus spot-on vehicle data, all in one interface. Anything more? No kidding! Every Tesla 3 serves you with auto-pilot advanced safety and all-round enhanced visibility. Little wonder this treasure of transport was awarded a 5-star Europe safety rating. For misers like me it is something like seven times less expensive to run that a petrol powered rival - and requires less maintenance due to its cleverly and astutely reduced reliance on mechanical complexities. Not only that with its welcome zero emmisions it benefits the environment. Performance? Not too bad... its rear engine will hurry you and four passengers from 0-60mph in around 3.1 seconds on its all-wheel drive - its reckoned it will set you back around £28-a-month. Little wonder it was the first electric car to top a million units globally a couple of months ago. And, I have no doubt, it will keep up the pace and fully please its buyers. There can be fewer deserving causes...I’d have one.

Song Titles & Artists What’s the song & who sang it?
QUESTIONS: 1. It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday. The regular crowd shuffles in. There’s an old man sittin’ next to me. Makin’ love to his tonic and gin. 2. I’m nothing special. In fact I‘m a bit of a bore. If I tell a joke you’ve probably heard it before. 3. It’s a girl my Lord in a flatbed Ford, slowin’ down to take a look at me. 4. And he asks you where you have been. You tell him who you’ve seen and you talk about anything. 5. Runnin’ down the avenue. See how the sun shines brightly in the city. 6. But the dawn is breakin’. It’s early morn. The taxi’s waitin’. He’s blowin’ his horn. 7. Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by? 8. City girls just seem to find out early how to open doors with just a smile. 9. Face to face. Each classic case. We shadow box and double cross. Yet need the chase. 10. I guess I should’ve kept my mouth shut when I started to brag about my car, but I can’t back down now because I pushed the other guys to far.
