Dear Queens Park & Talbot Woods, Happy Halloween! Do Stephen and I look pretty scary? This was us at a party last year. It certainly was a good excuse to let our hair down. Well our gorgeous weather has continued, with a little rain and cooler temperature beginning to show. Did you manage to make the most of our English countryside and seaside over the summer? Nellie took us to Bournemouth sea front for Grandma’s 70th Birthday party! You can read about our monthly ‘Adventures of Nellie’ on pages 24 and 25. We also have other community news…Ann Montini meets the Stars and this month she meets Englebert Humperdinck. We expect a bumper harvest at the Furleigh Estate this autumn. Bournemouth Airport held their 6th Dorset Plane Pull - a great success. Dorset Wildlife Trust are batty about bats. Martin Lewis talks about overdrafts. The Bournemouth Pavilion is bringing a wealth of dancers together. You can find out more about the great works of The Rotary at the BIC this month and the Wessex Cancer Trust is holding a Knockout Dinner! Lots of variety for you to read and events to attend. Of course there are our very important local trades and services. Each of them would love to hear from you. So whether you need the washing machine repaired, a new bed, a chimney sweep, TV repairs, a builder, garden maintenance, new dentures, cycling accessories, a removals van, stair parts, a locksmith, gifts for Christmas or a plumber, you will find those and more all inside The Queens Park & Talbot Woods Directory. Please let the advertisers know where you found their details, this makes all our work worthwhile, which is much appreciated. We hope you have a great October and November. Very best wishes,
Debbie & Stephen Corney

. . . s r a t S e h t s t e e m i Ann Montin
This month’s star is
Englebert Humperdinck Singing legend Engelbert Humperdinck shot to fame with the hit song “Release Me“ he is now back with a great new album and planned tour. The New Album is called “Engelbert Calling”.
truly was a star and I loved him so much... he really taught me about style and class... many people loved him, and he is greatly missed, Mr Moonlight you know and we don’t have stars like that today which is unfortunate. “
Ann – Brilliant new album how did it all come about?
Ann – Eurovision... We all had such high hopes with you?
Engelbert – “Simply Sir Elton John... once he was on board that was it, many others wanted to join in, which was great and you know I owe him a lot... What a guy and super star “
Engelbert – “I loved doing the show, but you know I lost out to Russian singing grannies, that actually baked bread while on stage... I mean what chance have you against that, and more so, what is it to do with the song or winning... Madness really.“
Ann – It’s a brilliant list of people though... Engelbert – “It is, and so many I enjoyed Smokey Robinson, Neil Sedaka and Gene Simmons... all were so helpful, and together I am very blessed with this album. It’s the album that I think will define me in years to come... Well hopefully.” Ann – It’s been well received and already a huge chart hit – thoughts? Engelbert – “You know Ann every album is always a worry, but to get this kind of reaction at this stage of my career is simply super, I had no idea, and we have been so stunned in that respect, but it’s also so nice... I am so grateful to my fans, it’s for them and they have taken this to their hearts... what more can you ask really.“
Ann – What is next for you? Engelbert – “I am touring again and doing dates all over the world, I love to travel, and never tire of it, but then after that starting work on the next album, which is going to be called ”Engelbert Redialled“ as we have more duets that we could not fit on the first album, I am touring so look out for dates, and then we start recording again.” Ann – Finally a message for your fans here in the UK... Engelbert – “Quite simply without you I am nothing, and I am so grateful for the love and respect that we have had together over the last 48 years... I wish them all much love.”
Ann – You tell me that you owe your career break though, to another singer who? Engelbert – “It’s true. Remember the late great Dickie Valentine... well he had to pull out of the TV show “Sunday Night at the London Palladium “ and they gave me the slot. He thanked me for helping him out, and that really was the start of it all. You could say in fact it’s because of him I am here today... He was such a kind guy too and super talented.“ Ann – You also admired and were a great friend to another singing legend... Engelbert – Ah yes, the wonderful Frankie Vaughn... he

Our pledge to you We know from your feedback that when you come to one of our hospitals for medical support, the way you are treated and the customer care you receive can make a big difference. We understand that a kind word and a smile can really help, whether this be from the volunteer who greets you, the porter who takes you from one place to another or someone from our Patient Advice and Liaison Team listening to your concerns. We have worked with our staff and listened to your views and you can now see our ‘dignity pledges’ around the hospitals - we want you to challenge us if these are not being upheld. We will: 1. introduce ourselves to you at all times 2. acknowledge you when you arrive 3. only hold relevant conversations in the clinical and public areas and involve you appropriately 4. always address you by your preferred name 5. ensure discussions about treatment or diagnosis are carried out sensitively and as privately as possible 6. knock before entering your room or call before entering through a curtain 7. offer a chaperone to accompany you on examinations or procedures on request 8. ensure you (and your carers) are involved in decisions about your care 9. offer you the opportunity to wash your hands after using toilet facilities and prior to meal times 10. ensure we protect your modesty at all times 11. ensure your curtains are properly closed when you are undressing 12. ensure we have your permission before a person bathes or examines you.
PALS Our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS), based in the main atrium of the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, offers advice, handles complaints and helps solve a range of issues. Their office has been redesigned recently so patients and visitors can drop in and sit with a member of the team, rather than talking to them at a counter. PALS Co-ordinator, Jennie Moffat, says: “We wanted to make it more open and welcoming but also to be able to provide an environment where people who want to talk more privately, can.” The team have also recently worked with The Patients Association to learn more about complaints and are working closely with the wards to encourage staff to deal with any issues on the spot. Jennie says: “We’re a friendly and approachable team and I feel we do make a difference to the patients. “We also get patients who come in and say ‘are you here so we can say thank you as well?’, and that’s really encouraging.”
Mike Horey, Porter “One of the best parts of the job is getting to know patients and their backgrounds. Often you build good relationships with those who are in the hospital for a significant length of time, and you become their first port of call for advice, reassurance and stress release. Some just want a friendly pair of ears.u Steve Grant-Foale loves his job as a volunteer, greeting and helping patients and visitors. “Several years ago I had serious brain surgery which saved my life, so I wanted to give something back to say thank you. Many of our patients and visitors are coming into an unfamiliar environment and feel nervous about this. They may also be feeling very unwell so it’s important to me to help them feel more comfortable and relaxed. I can also share my own experience of being a patient to reassure them.”

Wildlife News
Talking about Wildlife...
Batty about Bats During their existence on earth through several millennia, bats with their silent flight and mythical reputation have left few cultures indifferent. They feature in folklore across the globe, both revered and feared, but rarely understood as the remarkable mammals that they are. Bats are the only true flying mammals on the planet and locate their prey using a sophisticated system known as echolocation. They are elusive nocturnal creatures, and, despite their close proximity to human habitats, difficult to spot, partly because the sounds that they make are too high pitched for the human ear. Contrary to popular belief, bats are not blind but have relatively good eyesight. There are over 1000 species of bats world wide, and 17 species of breeding bats in Britain. Of these, the pipistrelles, the brown long-eared bat and the noctule are the most common. All British bats are strict insect eaters, capable of devouring up to 3000 insects a night, from midges and moths to mosquitoes. Bats roost in various habitats, from hollow trees and caves to houses and churches. They often use different locations at different times of year, depending on their roosting needs. Bats are important to the food chain but have decreased in numbers due to loss of habitat and excessive use of insecticides, which has diminished their food sources. Bats are protected in the UK, and it is illegal to disturb or injure them or their roosting sites in any way. Bats rarely cause any damage to houses, but as winter approaches, they get ready to hibernate, and you may find a bat that has chosen
your loft for its winter retreat. If you find an injured bat or need help with bats, ring the Bat Conservation helpline on 0845 1300 228. Dorset Wildlife Trust celebrates bats in its Halloween Extravaganza event at the Kingcombe Centre on October 31, from 17:00 - 20:00. For information and to book please ring 01300 321409.

Re:generations - the UK’s ONLY international platform dedicated to showcasing African influenced dance styles; such as Hip Hop, Jazz, Afro Caribbean, traditional and contemporary African and Caribbean, AfroLatin, and African American Dance – will be held at Pavilion Dance South West (Bournemouth, UK), across a 3 day period (6th, 7th & 8th November ’14). This spectacular three day conference will be hosted by Hakeem Onibudo (Choreographer, Teacher, British Council Ambassador, Creator of Impact Dance, Red Carpet Movie Premiere Host), with presentations by leading artist such as Sharon Watson (Artistic Director of Phoenix Dance Theatre), and performances by renowned artists from the USA, Canada, Africa, Europe and indeed the UK . A very special performance by none other than Jonzi D (Artistic Director of Breakin’ Convention) and Tabu-Flo (Winners of the “Mirinda Loosen Up” competition 2010) will feature here also. ‘Regeneration 2014 promises to be a truly international affair bringing together a wealth of world dance leaders, practitioners, managers and young creatives working with African Diaspora dance forms. This is the first time we are hosting the event outside of London, taking it to the South West region at the fantastic Pavilion Dance venue and grounds. The partners have carefully programmed the three days and each day promises to be inspiring with something for each participant,’ says Mercy Nabirye, Director of The Association of Dance of the African Diaspora.

‘Rethinking the past to reimagine the future’ The starting point of the central theme of the 3rd Re:generations conference is the realisation that dance practices that have significance today are grounded in histories of a range of dance forms and the histories of the dance practitioners and companies that have used and developed them. The better we understand these histories, the more we are able to understand and foster the potential for future developments in African diasporic forms, as well as in forms like ballet November 6th - 8th, 2014 and contemporary dance.

Chocks Away
at the 2014 Dorset Plane Pull
The 6th Dorset Plane Pull saw more than fifteen teams enlisted to pull a Boeing 737 a muscle busting 50 metres at Bournemouth Airport. Three of those teams were pulling and raising money for the JTYAF and many of their team members have been supporting the event and the charity for many years.
Squadrons. It is no mean task to pull a Boeing 737 weighing in at 350,000 kg a distance of 50 metres and when the front
First up for the JTYAF was Stig (Chris Morson) and ‘Stig’s Boys.’ They even managed to get the Mayor of Bournemouth on side for the challenge! wheel of the plane gets stuck in a pot hole it really doesn’t help. Well the cadets were not to be put off and on their second attempt managed a pretty tidy pull in just over a minute. A big thank you to Team BCFT who were sadly unable to join us on the rearranged day but still managed to raise a fantastic £444 in sponsorship. Rus Jolley and his team from ‘The Conditioning Centre‘ were the second JTYAF team to pull and they came in as runners up in a fantastic 43 seconds, pipped to the finishing line by this year and last year’s winners, ‘Al of a Pull.’
Finally it was down to the Air Cadets from 2358 (Ferndown) and 130 (Bournemouth)
Well done and thank you to all the team members and especially to Chris Morson, Rus Jolley and Chris Symonds who organised everyone, making sure that they had their ID on the day. A huge thank you to Richard Griffin, Peter, Kyrie and Carl Feltham and to all the Plane Pull team as this is one huge event to organise and they do a fantastic job, juggling their full time jobs alongside a massive amount of preparation. The cadets from 2358 (Ferndown) and 130 (Bournemouth) Squadrons of the Air Training Corps have been supporting the event since it started in 2009 and their help is crucial to the success of the event and we can’t thank them enough. If you would like to put in a team for the Dorset Plane Pull 2015 please contact Pete Thornton on 07792 121645 and register your interest.

She was going to take Grandma on a ‘mystery’ 70th Birthday treat. Grandma had no idea where she was going, let alone what she would be doing. Grandma and Grandad live all the way up North in Hull and often come to visit, but living so close to Bournemouth with our beautiful beaches we don’t always make the most of it. So, my sister and I did some plotting a scheming and decided a trip to the seaside would be just what Mum and Dad would love. It was kept as a very guarded secret and even Hayden, our ten year old son, would not give the game away, when asked many questions by a playful Grandma and Grandad. The day came and we set off in Nellie. Lady J, my sister’s and brother-in-law’s rather nice Jaguar followed closely behind. The weather was good, the sun was shining and Grandma and Grandad were sitting, a little perplexed, clutching a rather large suitcase which was ready for anything I think! Nellie was in her element. We drove along the sea front and arrived at our destination - The Cumberland Hotel,
Enjoying the view from the balcony
Where will Nellie be taking me? which is part of the Oceana Hotels and a grand looking building right on the cliff top in Bournemouth. Dad’s mouth was open, but for once and believe me this is rare, he was not able to speak. Mum stood in amazement. We were a little early and so were treated to a complimentary drink at the pool side while our sea view rooms were prepared. Nellie was kept on guard in the car park. The views from our rooms were spectacular. We each had a balcony and on the glorious day that it was, it was fantastic to relax and sit looking at the clear blue shimmering sea. What a wonderful place we live in! Now… having a ten year old boy doesn’t mean you can do this for long! No Mummy, action is needed. It’s time to play, get moving, no time to chill out. So, we all went back to the poolside and had a swim in the heated outdoor pool. It was really rather good. Grandma and Grandad relaxed some more, sunbathing on the loungers watching us. Dinner was booked for 8pm. The menu was excellent, the service was perfect and a great evening was had by all. A dinner well deserving of a 70th Birthday.
25 Being so near to where we live meant that Hayden could be taken to school, so the following day he went to an early breakfast which he thoroughly enjoyed and then Nellie took him off to get his education. We had booked a massage for Mum in the adjacent hotel which is part of the three Oceana Hotels on the sea front. The advantage of these hotels is that if you stay in one you can use the facilities of the other two as well. Each hotel has something different to offer. Again it was a beautiful day – not bad for the 22nd September! Dad likes his sunbathing, so again the loungers next to this pool were a welcome site as you can see here. Getting up was not so easy though! After Grandma’s very special Birthday massage we all took a walk along the sea front down to the beach. There is an impressive Tribute to Jon Egging from the Red Arrows, who tragically lost his life after a Bournemouth Airshow display. This is based on an idea by two pupils from Kinson Primary School and was designed by the artist Tim Ward. I had not seen it before. Then we followed the path to Harry Ramsden’s! What an international fame this
Jon Egging tribute on the East Cliff
“Out for the count” and “Give us a hand!” has become. Mum remembered 55 years ago going into a ‘shack’ up North to get fish and chips from Harry’s place. That brought fond memories back for her. We just had to go in to taste the delights. Grandma loved the setting and she very nearly ran off with one of their plates! The waiter didn’t quite have to do a rugby tackle at the door, but it was a close shave…. Apparently they get asked often if the plates can be taken or purchased. A very clever idea! It all adds to the authenticity of the surroundings. The meal was delicious and ended a really happy 24 hours ‘away’. We are so very lucky to live in such a glorious location. Mum’s Birthday was a resounding success. Dad sent us a thank you card on their return to Yorkshire which said, “We were completely taken aback. Mum was overwhelmed by it and will remember her 70th for quite some time!” We didn’t quite manage to get her on the new zip wire…maybe we will save that for next time? Where will Nellie go next…?

Money Saving Tips
Martin
LEWIS Overdrafts Overdrafts are a debt like any other, if you don’t manage it, it will spiral out of control. While there are methods to cut the cost, they’re often far less talked about than the common techniques for cutting credit card bills – but are just as important. In a nutshell your aim should be to cut the cost and repay what you owe. Here’s my tips on how…
Organise incoming cash and move it into bill pots at the start of the month so you're not tempted to spend unnecessarily, it’s called piggybanking. Use this technique to make payments - eg, £100 a month - to your overdraft, treating it like any other bill. Use my free automated budget planner to help at www.budgetbrain.com.
Get paid £100 to take a free overdraft. There are two big players who offer decent deals for those with overdrafts who switch account. Though you’ll need to pass their credit score. Move to www.firstdirect.com, which is the no. 1 rated bank for customer service (92% of my web users rated it ‘great’) and you get an ongoing £250 overdraft. Crucially it also gives you £100 sign up bonus, which you should put straight towards your debt. To get it you’ll need to pay in your salary or income, which must be at least £1,000 a month. Alternatively for a potentially larger 0% overdraft there’s the www.nationwide.co.uk FlexDirect account. Yet it only gives you this overdraft for the first year, so ensure you use that time to clear the debt or afterwards it’s 50p a day.
Use savings (if you've any). Having overdrafts and savings isn't sensible. Think about it: a £1,000 overdraft at £20 a month equals £240 a year, but the same in easy access savings, after tax, earns a paltry £13 at best. So repay debt with savings and you're £229 per £1,000 up each year. Once the overdraft's paid off, you can save more freely. You may think: "But I'll have no savings if the boiler packs up or the roof falls in." True, but in an emergency, access the overdraft you’ve paid off again and you'll be no worse off. To beat the fear of being without savings, read www.mse.me/repaydebts.
Shift your overdraft to a 31 month 0% card. While you may have heard of credit card debt shifting deals called balance transfers, a few cards also offer a ‘money transfer’ where it simply pays cash into your bank account, so you can then pay off your overdraft, meaning you then owe it instead. This is a good option if you’ve a bigger overdraft and will need more than a year to repay it. My top pick card right now is www.mbna.co.uk, which lets accepted customers do it at 0% for 31 months for a one-off 4% fee (it’s just 2.88% for normal balance transfers). However, it’s credit score dependent, so use the www.mse.me/eligibility tool which will show you which money transfer cards you’ve the best chance of getting. If you are doing a money transfer do follow these golden rules: a) Don’t assume all cards do this, most charge a fortune. b) Always repay the monthly minimum or you'll lose the 0% deal. c) Plan to clear by the end of the 0% period or it jumps to the full rate - with MBNA that's 22.9% rep APR. d) If you’re unsure of what you’re doing use the step-by-step help in www.mse.me/moneytransfers. Manage your way back into credit. Cutting the cost of your overdraft isn’t the end game, you should aim to always be in credit (or at least always within your overdraft when there’s no cost). To help do ask companies you pay to shift direct debits to near the end of your working month. If paid on the 25th, aim for the 20th. This artificially boosts your balance so you're in the red less - but don't spend the cash. Moving bill dates cuts fees, but won't tackle the overdraft. So sit down and do a budget to find out where you can cut back.
Poor credit? Get 0% respite from bank charges. The options above won't help if your score's poor, but there is one card that offers 0% on spending until October even for those with a poor credit history. The www.luma.co.uk card accepts some with CCJs or defaults over a year old to get it. Now as this isn’t a debt shifting card, you have to play clever and be disciplined to take advantage of it for reducing overdrafts. The technique is you do your normal, budgeted, day-to-day spending on the card up to the credit limit, instead of from your bank account. This builds up the debt on the card, but allows your overdraft to be repaid by your income. Do ensure you can make monthly repayments to clear the card before the 0% ends though or the rate jumps to 34.9% representative APR. "I got £1,560 in unfair bank charges back." If you have an overdraft the nightmare scenario is exceeding your limits and getting stung with bank charges – these transaction fees can be £6 per day or up to £25 per transaction. Get it wrong and they can add up to £100s or £1,000s a year. Do everything you can to avoid them and communicate with the bank if there’s no solution. However, if you are or have been hit, do remember reports of the death of unfair bank charges reclaiming have been exaggerated. Admittedly now it's mainly for those where charges put you into financial hardship, yet some do get money back, Alice emailed me to say: "I sent your template... a day later the bank refunded £1,560. Thanks." For full help and template letters on how to reclaim bank charges for free see www.mse.me/bankcharges. In dire straits? If the debts are all too much for you, it’s worth considering non-profit debt help from agencies like www.stepchange.org, www.citizensadvice.org.uk, and www.nationaldebtline.org. Don’t be scared to speak them, they’re there to help not to judge.

FURLEIGH ESTATE vineyard & winery expected to enjoy a
bumper harvest this autumn
English vineyard and winery Furleigh Estate is expecting its best-ever harvest this autumn, and has estimated that it will produce approximately 100,000 bottles of award-winning, still and sparkling wine as a result.
This year’s harvest is anticipated to be twice as large as the previous record yield, in 2010. What’s more, in one of its vineyards the crop is predicted to be even bigger than the total sum of all of the previous harvests, as a result of two consecutive years of great summer weather. Situated in Salway Ash in West Dorset, this former dairy farm is owned and managed by husband and wife team, Rebecca Hansford and Ian Edwards. The couple planted their first vine just over nine years ago in 2005. Today, more than 22,000 Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier vines grow on the south-facing slopes of the Estate. Rebecca Hansford, owner of Furleigh Estate, said: “We are so
excited about this year’s bumper harvest. It’s come at a significant time for us as we enter our 10th year as a working vineyard and winery. “A dry Glastonbury festival and a warm Wimbledon are usually reliable indicators that the grape harvest is going to be good, so we’ve had high hopes since the start of the summer. We are so fortunate that the English climate has been kind to the vines this season!” Harvest takes place over three weeks from mid-October. Furleigh Estate’s vineyard and winery will be open to the public during this time for two very special harvest lunches. For more information or to book, email info@furleighestate.co.uk or phone 01308 488991.

Gardening Tips

Grass Roots No 4 There is a widely-held misconception out there that a Garden = Flowers. This is not so and you only have to look at the garden in the winter when there are no flowers out, to see what I mean. A garden without structure is just a collection of plants and is meaningless whenever the flowers are not there. A beautiful garden = plants + design (ie structure). No 5 Sometimes good ideas or solutions to problems are right under our noses but we just can't see it for looking. This is because we are usually too closely involved in our own gardens to be objective. If possible, talk your ideas through with someone else. It is amazing what can be suddenly seen after looking at it for months or even years.
7 COMMON GARDEN DESIGN MISTAKES ‘Forewarned is forearmed’ so today I’d like to warn you against the 7 most common mistakes I’ve seen time and again that people make with their gardens and the real pity of it is that they were all avoidable. No 1 Not being clear about what you want is the No 1 mistake I’ve seen in 17 years of garden design. This step, whether you’re going for a full re-design of your garden or just changing one area, is the step most people leave out or gloss over. Which is incredible, if you think about it, because if the garden is not exactly how you want it to be, it does not matter how hard you work or how much money you throw at it, it will not be right. No 2 Not having a plan is the next big mistake I see over again. Even if the garden owner knows what they want to do, by not having a plan, they are almost certainly doubling the amount of work involved and very likely the cost too. No 3 There are some gardeners who seem to think that any plant will grow anywhere they choose to put it. WRONG! Plants need certain conditions in which to thrive and if they are not present, the plant dies but people don’t think about this because the death of the plant doesn’t happen instantly.
No 6 Going down to the garden centre and buying the first thing that catches your eye is the best way I can think of for a gardener to lose money. Always read the label before buying the plant to see if it will suit the growing conditions in your garden. If not, resist the temptation and do not buy it because it will not live. No 7 Maintenance should always be thought of as you go along. Before changing anything or buying a new plant, always ask yourself what the maintenance implications are before to take action. There is no point in having a garden that is a burden to you rather than a joy. As soon as you start using words like ‘should’ and ‘ought’ about the garden, its time for a major re-think!
