A You don’t have to spend a vast amount of money to purchase a Geberit toilet. There are also less expensive models in the range such as the Geberit AquaClean 4000. This compact loo seat is designed to replace your existing loo seat and is straightforward to install, as it fits on the existing seat.

Q Should I be concerned about how much water is used in spray-function toilets? A The Geberit AquaClean 4000 only uses 400ml of water at each use, and although this is more than a normal loo, there are positive environmental aspects to this choice, such as using less toilet paper. Water, chemicals and other raw materials are wasted in the production of toilet paper, and while it’s biodegradable, the process still leaves chemical traces in our water supply.

Are you Property Fraud Aware? Rachel Collier explains how you can protect your property from Fraud. In 2014 property fraud in the UK totalled almost £10 million and is on the increase. People are increasingly falling victim to property fraud as the scammer’s tactics become progressively more sophisticated. Your home is often your most valuable asset. Here I will explain how you can protect your home. We sell our homes for large sums of money, which makes it highly attractive for scammers to sell your home from right under your nose, they will transfer your property into their own name using false documents and often take out a mortgage against your property. Your property is more at risk if there is no mortgage, it is rented out or empty, in addition properties that are not mortgaged or registered with Land Registry are seen as more high risk. There are a number of ways you can protect your property: • Is it registered? • Are your contact details up to date at Land Registry. • Get Land Registry property alert service, this will not automatically block any changes to the Register but it will alert you if something is happening. • Get a restriction put against your title, this will stop Land Registry registering a sale or mortgage on your property unless a conveyancer certifies the application was made by you. • Choose your conveyancer carefully, make sure the firm acting for you is genuine by checking with the Law Society or Council of Licenced Conveyancers.

To make sure your property is protected and if you would like further information on how to proceed, call Sophie or Rachel on the conveyancing team on 0151-342-9021 or by email, sophie@campionsolicitors.co.uk or rachel@camponsolicitors.co.uk.

Prue heads to Heswall FANS of the Great British Bake Off will be delighted to know that star judge Prue Leith will be in Heswall later this year. Prue will be meeting fans and signing copies of her cook book on Monday 26th November at Heswall Hall, as the guest of the Linghams book shop. In her book are quick-to-whip-up suppers and dinner party showstoppers that are as much a pleasure to cook as to eat. Expect firmly established favourites, lazy leftovers, meat-free meals, exciting new flavour combinations and fresh takes on classic dishes. There’s also a chapter of puds inspired by Prue’s time on Bake Off – every one guaranteed to be ‘worth the calories’. This is Prue’s first cookery book in twenty-five years, and she has woven intimate and witty stories from her life around many of the recipes. Celebrating the food we all want to make at home, Prue gives an unparalleled view into the cooking life and style of one of the nation’s best-loved cooks. Tickets £15, which includes a signed copy of the book, are available from the shop on Telegraph Road. A week earlier, on Monday 19th November, TV historian Dan Snow will be in town to promote his latest work ‘On This Day in History’ in which he tells the story of an important event that happened on each day of the year. From the signing of the Armistice treaty at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, to Rosa Parks refusing to give up her bus seat on 1st December 1955, the most important battle fought on British soil that you’ve never heard of on 20th May 685 and the first meeting of John Lennon and Paul McCartney on 6th July 1957.

BOOKS with LINGHAM’S BOOKSTORE, HESWALL

By Kerry Keight

OCTOBER – SUPER AUTHORS, SUPER THURSDAY AND BOOKSHOP DAY ! Busy bookshop season is upon us again, but with all the fabulous signings we have been having we are more than ready to take it on! How many of you were able to see Lucy Worsley in September? She wrote a lovely guest piece in a newspaper saying …”It’s such a pleasure as an author to be the guest of entrepreneurial independents like Linghams, who take the trouble to organise special events that you can see their community of customers enjoy”. It was a fabulous event and it is great to see that books and authors are still considered so important.

Last year from 2nd Oct (Super Thursday) to 24th December 66 million new books were sold! Super Thursday (5th Oct) is when all the publishers release their new books for Christmas. Saturday 7th October is Book Shop Day so come an support you favourite Bookshop and buy all the books! Events for October…4th Oct - Michael Palin; 11th Oct - Rosemary Shrager; 15th Oct - Liane Moriaty; 24th Oct - Chris Riddell; 29th Oct - Jeffrey Archer; 30th Oct - Markus Zusak SALLY ROONEY – NORMAL PEOPLE If you read and loved Conversations with Friends like I did then you are in for a treat with Rooney’s second book. This is the story of Marianne and Connell. Marianne is a damaged teen who lives in a Mansion in rural Ireland and popular Connell’s mum is the cleaner. They attend the same school and do not acknowledge their connection but go on to have an intense relationship. The dynamics of this relationship changes when they both go to University Mari-anne thrives and Connell is side-lined. Rooney is sublime at describing the “normal” and the changing nuances of a relationship.

ROBIN STEVENS – DEATH IN THE SPOTLIGHT The Murder Most Unladylike by Robin Stevens just keeps getting better and better. These books are so popular and it is easy to see why, the Enid Blyton style boarding school romps have been given a makeover and they are great fun. If you have not encountered Hazel and Daisy and the detective agency they run from the Deapdean School for Girls then get your-self a copy of the first in the series as this is seventh book!

Students, parents and teachers should rightly be proud of these results – the Government have raised the bar in terms of standards and our students have risen to this challenge. We are proud of the achievements of all our young people and thank teachers for their dedication and commitment, and thank parents for all their support.�

Wirral’s wonderful waders return Did you know that in autumn and winter, Wirral’s coastline is one of the best places in the country to see huge numbers of wading birds such as knots, dunlins, curlews, sanderlings, oystercatchers, grey plovers and bar-tailed godwits? They come in their tens of thousands to feast on the rich mudflats of the Dee Estuary and North Wirral shores and can be easily seen from places such as Hoylake promenade. To celebrate this wonderful natural phenomenon the fourth Wirral Wader Festival will take place this year on the 27th and 28th October at West Kirby and Hoylake. The programme of events includes high tide birdwatches at both sites to marvel at the dunlin and knot roosts, a guided afternoon walk to Hilbre Island, and a guided walk around Cheshire Wildlife Trust’s (CWT) Red Rocks Nature Reserve. Back by popular demand is the RSPB supported wader cam that beams live footage directly from Little Eye that allows us to get up close and personal with the waders in the roost. This year there will also be children’s activities based at Hoylake Sailing Club which will be open to non-members over the two

days from noon. There is ample parking at West Kirby and Hoylake and both are easily reached by train. Karen Leeming, chairwoman of the Wirral Coast Partnership, said: “The Wirral Wader Festival Partnership held the first UK Wader Festival in 2015; it proved to be the stimulus that encouraged other UK coastal areas to follow suit and not only do we think that this is a fantastic achievement, but it is wonderful that more people are being encouraged to celebrate the UK’s wildlife. “Everyone is welcome to Wirral Wader Festival from keen bird watchers to people who have never looked through a telescope but who would like to learn a bit more about local wildlife. We have lots of people to help identify what you are looking at, and we have a telescope just for the children.” For full details of the events and activities during the festival, visit wirralwaderfestival.blogspot.co.uk or www.facebook.com/wirralwaderfest. Most activities on Saturday and Sunday are free but the guided walks have a small charge and must be pre-booked as numbers are limited. See above for details.

GARDENING BY JANET WEEDS

Autumn tints in October

W

ith one of the driest summer of recent years this has not been great for gardeners. If you do want to plant anything out, firstly dig a hole at least 50% deeper and wider than the pot. Incorporate a lot of well rotted manure into the soil. This will act as a sponge to retain moisture. Make sure the plant has been standing in water for at least 2 hours to soak the compost. When planting put half a watering can of water in the base of the hole then backfill gradually, adding lots more water as I go. Firm the soil down and add another can of water on the top to settle the soil. Plants that do well in October include Cyclamen hederifolium. These autumn flowering cyclamen are hardy and like a light soil and a sunny dry spot around shrubs. They also do well in pots where the white marbled green foliage looks stunning all winter. Another

bulb that does well in pots is the Nerine with it’s exotic pink flowers late in autumn. Again, they need well drained soil and a light dry soil by a wall would be ideal provided that they are not shaded by larger plants. Crab apples or Malus are in full fruit now with many keeping their tiny apples all winter. You get blossom in spring and coloured fruit in autumn on small trees. The variety Golden Hornet has bright yellow apples, Harry Baker has pink flowers and large red fruit which are good for Crab Apple jelly. John Downie has white flowers and two toned red/orange fruits also good for jelly. All are self fertile so they do not need another variety to pollinate the flowers, unlike some apples. Crab Apples are a good pollinator for apple trees so having one in the garden on a dwarfing rootstock (M9 or M26 for a small tree) is ideal.

This year my Star Jasmine or Trachelospermum jasminoides, has had flowers in summer and the glossy evergreen leaves have already started to turn red. Last winter it stayed red all winter, brightening up the garden. My Acers in pots have also turned to tints of orange, red and yellow. October is the time to finish harvesting tomatoes. Bring green ones indoors to ripen in the heat. Squashes and pumpkins should be ready to store too before any frost arrives. This year my runner beans will have finished early but sometimes they last into October. Pick them and cut the plants down to a stump. Leave them in the soil and they may well re-sprout next spring as mine did this year. Re seed any bare patches of grass after scarifying the soil, adding some compost, then sowing the seed and water in well.
