Welcome
to the October/November issue of the Kendal Courier Magazine. Well its been another wonderful time in and around our beautiful Kendal with so much happening including; the fantastic events of ‘Lakes Alive’, the Sheep Dog trials near Stavely and the magnificent Status Quo at Kendal Rugby Club. The great Agricultural Shows and Kendal Craft and Gift fairs have added even more interest for locals and tourists alike. Our National Park is also celebrating its 67th anniversary being honoured and promoted through a marvellous video, sound track and poem. The Lake District National Park Authority have collaborated with poet, Tony Walsh to produce this unique short film called ‘Reflecting On The Lakes’ which includes the very moving line, ‘when the skyline meets our eye line, we’ve a lifetime of delight’. We hope you enjoy the magazine, consider our local traders and are able to support those who have done so much to put on events in and around Kendal. *** Please mention The Kendal Courier when responding to adverts in this edition. The next edition of The Kendal Courier will be out in December and if you have anything interesting you would like us to consider publishing then please contact us on our dedicated email address at: info@the kendalcourier.co.uk.

HOW TO MAKE A TRADITIONAL JACK O’LANTERN STEP 1: The traditional scary face is very straightforward to make. Cut a lid in the top of the pumpkin around the stem so that you can scoop out the insides. A good rule of thumb is that the lid should be about two-thirds the diameter of the pumpkin. Take a sharp, long-bladed knife and, holding it at an angle, cut a circular or hexagonal-shaped lid. Holding the knife at an angle when making the cut will help ensure the lid does not fall into the empty pumpkin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the insides - the seeds etc., then gently scrape the walls clean and the base until it is flat.
STEP 2: Put the pumpkin on a table and turn it until you decide which side you want to cut. Using a fine permanent marker, draw on the face, and using a sharp knife with a firm, short blade, carefully follow your guidelines. Once all the cuts have been make, remove the pieces by gently pushing them from the inside out. For more complicated patterns use a stencil pinned to the pumpkin, prick the motif onto the pumpkin’s surface using a thick needle, join the dots with a marker pen and cut.
STEP 3: Onto the flat inside base of the pumpkin place a tea light. White candles will make the lantern glow most effectively, although for a more spooky effect, put the candle in a coloured glass holder.
...And once the festivities are over, do remember that the pumpkin can be added to the compost heap.
PICKING YOUR PUMPKIN... Rule one is to buy a pumpkin of good size. A small one will be fiddly to cut and something the size of a handball will look a bit pathetic. A good average size is 30-40 cm tall, with a well rounded shape. When selecting your future lantern, check for damage and bruising, and reject any with injury, for they will not last so long. Also, do not carry a pumpkin by its stem as this will injure it.

A “Mint” year for local business…
ocal spirit drinks producer “Mint Drinks Co” is boosting production of its popular flavoured Vodka’s and Gin in the run up to the festive season.
Owner David Hall (Pic Below) says 2018 has been a fantastic year. “2017 saw us win a business award from Dragons Den presenter Theo Paphitis, and we had the pleasure of meeting HRH Prince Charles, who tasted both our Kendal Mint Cake Vodka and Lakes Gingerbread Vodka, and in his own words, they are delicious…..” Then 2018 saw the release of their Herdwick Brambleberry Gin, and things just went mad. Gin is definitely the in thing at the moment and it has no signs of changing anytime soon. David went on to say “We took quite a while developing the Herdwick Brambleberry Gin, there is a lot of competition in the flavoured Gin market and we didn’t want to release something unless we were 100% happy with it….. after months and months of development and the obligatory tasting sessions, we finally cracked it, just the right blend of berries to make a deliciously smooth and moreish Gin based drink that can be enjoyed neat, over ice – as a long drink with Elderflower tonic – or made up, a bit like a Pimm’s, with lots of frozen mixed berries instead of ice and a glug of lemonade. If we’d known how popular our Gin was gonna be, we’d have done it a lot earlier. It flies off the shelves, and people just keep coming back for more.”
David believes part of the success of the business is down to the fact that everything is done by hand, which means every single bottle is manually handled at every stage, enabling us to ensure a quality product. The products themselves are created inhouse, the bottles are filled by hand, then hand labelled and hand sealed, even the individual batch codes are hand written, no big factories here!! The business now employs four members of the Hall family and is growing rapidly with David adding “It’s a good job we are a big family, because we are gonna need to grow the team again in the not too distant future”.
So, what’s next for Mint Drinks Co? Well, Dave is being very careful about what he’s saying at the moment, but we do know he is busy developing a new drink, and if the current trio are anything to go by, it will be a sure fire winner, so watch this space!
