We at Royal Bay Care Homes believe a care home should be a place: - Where each person is an individual. - Where there are no unnecessary rules and regulations. - Where dignity, peace and comfort take priority. - Where companionship, interest and activity flourishes. - And where people are supported to lead the fullest possible lives.
At the heart of every Royal Bay Care Home are core values with the emphasis on comfort, compassion, dignity, individuality, personality as well as great food. At Royal Bay our priority is you living your life your way. We have teams of incredibly caring, dedicated and qualified staff, plus Gold Standards Framework accreditation.

Dear Wimborne, Merley & Colehill residents, I do love November and Bonfire Night. It is as special today as it was when I was young. The family fun atmosphere, the burgers, hotdogs and burning wood smells in the air. The cold, wrapped-up darkness with bright lights suddenly appearing all over the night sky. Oh yes! I do hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Please keep the pets safe though. Nellie, the Dorset Publications Campervan, has been very excited this month after purchasing a new friend at “Rockley Park”. What an adventure that has been. Do have a read. Your little Directory is full of useful local information as well as good local trades people who just love to help you. Stephen and I really appreciated you calling them when you need their services. We have been promoting local businesses for over ten years now and are still as passionate as ever to keep the local community thriving. The winner of the October prize wordsearch was K Dent. Very well done to you! Who will be the lucky winner this month? If you would like a copy of Nellie’s little book which is full of fun puzzles and stories, please give me a call! It could be a great Christmas stocking filler. Wishing you an exciting month of November! Best Wishes,
Debbie & Stephen Corney Useful Numbers

Cloudy2Clear Announce Trusted Trader Partnership Consumer champions Which? have now joined the thousands of customers who recognise that Cloudy2Clear Windows really are a business that you can TRUST. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has received the coveted ‘Which Trusted Trader’ status after going through a rigorous accreditation process entirely focussed on customer service. Group Managing Director Marcus McGee believes that Which? have endorsed Cloudy2Clear’s long standing
company policy of delivering the highest standards possible at all times. ‘Our service is simple. If your double glazing has misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 25 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Whilst a number of tradespeople perhaps don’t focus on customer care as much as they should do, we make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. Locally Cloudy2Clear service the :LPERUQH area and
manager Justin Friel agrees that this approach is a major factor in his success. ‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated as both my customers and, obviously a body as nationally important as Which? now recognise.’ So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Justin a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Wildlife News
Talking about Wildlife...
Wildlife Adoptions Red Squirrels and seahorses are in need of help, so this autumn, treat yourself or a loved one to a special wildlife gift with a Dorset Wildlife Trust wildlife adoption.
This time of year, the red squirrel can be seen scurrying around the woodland floor collecting nuts for winter and jumping between trees on Brownsea Island, in Poole Harbour, Dorset. The popular red squirrel, a native species, has been in decline for many years, but Brownsea Island, owned by the National Trust, is proud to give a home to a population of 200 of these enchanting creatures. The island is one of the few safe havens for the reds in the South West. They can be seen by visitors for most of the year but are particularly active during the autumn as they prepare for winter. It’s the perfect time of year to make a daytrip to the beautiful nature reserve, managed by Dorset Wildlife Trust (DWT) on Brownsea Island. By adopting a red squirrel for just £20, DWT can help ensure that the habitat which is so important for their survival on the island is maintained and managed for many years to come.
Marine Protected Areas in our waters. We also need to continue to educate, inspire and engage people about the value of Dorset’s fabulous marine environment. This is all done through our marine conservation work, which is part of the Marine Conservation Fund. Adopting a seahorse will allow us to continue this work. Adopting either a seahorse or a red squirrel this autumn for £20 each, will not only make a unique and wonderful gift for yourself or a loved one, but will contributing to conservation work in Dorset. Each pack comes with an adoption certificate, soft toy, pin badge and information about the species. Buy online at www.dorsetwildlifetrust.org. uk/wildadoptions or ring 01305 264620 (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm). By Sally Welbourn Red Squirrel making eye contact

Meanwhile, on the Dorset coast, lives a less visible but just as unique and enchanting species, the seahorse. The seahorse is the subject of much conservation concern as a result of its declining habitat. DWT is working to get protection and wise management established for more of Dorset’s seas through the creation of

Waitrose Customers Support Wimborne In Bloom A cheque for £320 was handed over to Wimborne in Bloom on Thursday, a share of the proceeds from the Waitrose Community Matters Scheme, the ‘green discs’ for the month of July in the Wimborne Store. Each month sees £1,000 being shared by three local charities and this was the first time since 2012 that Wimborne in Bloom had benefited from the scheme. Richard Nunn, Chairman of Wimborne in Bloom who, with Anthony Oliver, received the cheque from Steph Roberts, Community Matters Champion, thanked everyone who had supported Wimborne in Bloom and Waitrose for their support in this special year of our 25th anniversary.
November sees the actual anniversary date as Wimborne in Bloom was founded on 27th November 1992. It will be a month for the two final fundraising events in what has been a very busy year. There is the Charities Fair in the Allendale Centre on Saturday 11th November and the Pre-Christmas Coffee Morning at 34 Park Lane on Saturday 18th November. Hopefully these two events will ensure a successful end to the year, a year in which at the first attempt we won the Town Title in the Regional Competition with a Gold Award.
Steph Roberts, Waitrose (Wimborne) Community Matters Champion, Richard Nunn, Chairman Wimborne in Bloom, Anthony Oliver, Press Officer, Wimborne in Bloom and Sue Fountain Waitrose (Wimborne) Customer Services Advisor

Wimborne’s Festival In 1951 a Souvenir Programme for Wimborne’s Festival was produced, covering a series of events from the 10 to 16 June of that year. It was organised to celebrate the Festival of Britain. Local organisations involved in the Festival included local schools and churches, the British Legion, Boy Scouts and Fire Brigade. The programme began on the Sunday with services held at the churches in the town. On the Monday the Urban District Council organised the Beating of the Bounds, the ancient custom of walking the boundaries of the parish. The circular route started and ended at Knob Crook. Bowls and tennis tournaments, and cricket matches were played over the week. There was a Schools’ Day on the Wednesday, the local schools putting on a ‘display of physical exercises’ and ‘maypole and country dancing’ at the Recreation Ground, and an ‘arts and crafts exhibition’ in the Wimborne Boys’ Council School. The Festival concluded with a ‘Historical Pageant’ organised on the Saturday. There were two performances starting from Park Lane and processing to the Recreation Ground. The pageant was based on Queen Elizabeth’s granting of a charter in 1563 to the Grammar School. The organisers made it clear that there was no evidence that the Queen attended in person. The pageant

MP makes lavender bag for PM Members of the ‘Step Outside’ allotment project welcomed Mid Dorset & Poole MP Michael Tomlinson when he visited them recently at Kingston Lacy. Wimborne Dementia Friendly Community set up the project in March 2016 and it is facilitated by the Alzheimer’s Society. Sarah Rampton, Alzheimer’s facilitator said, ‘We really appreciate that Michael took the time out to come and be with us and that he joined in with the making of lavender bags, from our very own lavender of course!’ He made one each for his daughters, plus
one for Theresa May, and enjoyed chatting to the ‘allotmenteers’ and volunteers. Michael was also presented with some home grown vegetables. The project, which is for people living with dementia and their carers, carries on through the winter with coffee and cake meetings to plan for the next season. For further information email sarah.rampton@alzheimers.org.uk or phone 01202 764352. Mid Dorset & Poole MP, Michael Tomlinson, with some of the allotmenteers

...the hidden gem of Three Legged Cross Nestled at the heart of the Woolsbridge Industrial Estate in Three Legged Cross is Select Interiors, specialists in the design and installations of the highest quality fitted furniture. Founded over 20 years ago, this family run firm is owned and managed by Peter and Karen Biss. With their eye for detail and focus on ensuring the highest quality finish, the company has its own factory for the manufacture of all its units. To achieve the full final product, all the installers and fitters are employed by the company, not sub-contractors. All the images here are of completed
installations in the local area. The quality of workmanship is clear to see and you can also visit the showroom to view some more examples of how you can make the best use of the space in your home. There are amazing designs showing how you can maximise even the smallest of corners, right up to a full room.
With their friendly and helpful approach, you can be sure of a personal, bespoke service that is tailored to your needs. The designers even produce full CAD drawings of how the finished product will look like to ensure that everything is true to your dreams, even before the installation work is begun. “We are delighted with the finished product, it has all gone in extremely well. As you will know this is the fifth occasion that Select have completed work in our home. 3 bedrooms, a utility room and now our kitchen; testament to how pleased we have been. The man who made it complete was Paul. You can spend a fortune on units only for poor fitting to ruin the job, but Paul’s workmanship is the best of any tradesman who has ever completed work for us. He was efficient, thought things through, nothing was too much trouble and does the work as if it were for his own home. He is a credit to your company.”

Adventures of Nellie

The Adventures of Nellie The Dorset Publications Camper Van Nellie, our aging, playful campervan has a new friend! Age is a funny thing isn’t it. We all grow older yet we do not necessarily feel any different. Of course times change and we have to try and keep up where we can, and as nellie knows we get various aches and pains, but fundamentally we stay young at heart. Well Nellie likes to think so. Hayden’s grandparents live all the way up in Hull and Nellie was getting concerned about this. Grandma does not want to move from the house she has lived in for 53 years (who can blame her) and Hayden is settled in school, air cadets, surf life-saving etc etc here in the South. So how do we solve this ‘problem’ of moving times for the best of everyone? There is not an easy answer and what maybe good for one family may not work out for another. Here’s what Nellie did... She got Grandma and Grandad to buy a wonderful caravan on “Rockley Park”! Nellie had taken

Debbie with Grandad at “The Retreat”
us a few times to have a look around the site, so when Grandad suggested that the house was getting a bit too much for them, but Grandma did not want to sell or move, this seemed like a great solution - and it is! They can visit whenever they want, they have their own space with now a wonderful view of the sea, a beach with a cafe, the owner’s club, swimming pools and a gym. Not that we have used the latter yet... But what more can you want? There is a fishing lake for Dad, water sports facilities for Hayden, entertainment in the evenings, restaurants, fish and chips, pizzas that can be delivered to your door, a mini market and even crazy golf, archery and climbing. The yearly ground rent is quite sizable, but if we rent out the caravan for several weeks of the year we can hopefully cover some of those costs. Nellie had it all figured out. After the purchase Nellie took

Stephen, myself and Hayden to try it out. Well, it had to be done didn’t it! Stephen bought a 3 man blow up canoe from an advert on Facebook and off we set. We really do love it. The van is one row back from the front with a wonderful little balcony which is perfect for that cup of coffee, and a biscuit in Grandma’s case, whether the sun is shining or not. Which is just as well in November! A lazy morning was had by all and then we had the ‘bright idea’ to take the canoe out. That is where the fun started. I was all geared up in a life jacket and rather unflattering wet suit. How come Hayden looks so the part in his wet suit and I look something like a beached whale? Nellie found that funny too... But then she would. I would like to see her in one! Anyway off we trotted. It all seemed fine, leisurely, peaceful and just what we needed. Then, I saw the water - in the boat! “There is water coming in.” I voiced. “Don’t be silly Mum, it is just the splashing of the paddles.” was the rather unperturbed response from Hayden. “There is water coming in!” I expressed more loudly, “There is water coming in!” I repeated even louder. After the fourth, rather
Tea for two... with a view!
Ready to go exploring on the water!
agitated attempt I was finally believed! There were now at least three inches of water indeed IN the boat. Stephen and Hayden paddled like billy-o and we just made it to the shore before sinking entirely. I must have looked like an injured whale now, desperately trying to get out of a rubber boat almost totally submerged under the water. Stephen looked at me, “Oh yes, about that bung at the back...” He declared with an apologetic, appealing grin. It was all pretty funny really and I am sure the people on the beach found it rather amusing, to say the least. Maybe we should take some of those water sports lessons before embarking on anything more adventurous. The rest of the day was spent calming down and reading in the van. “The Retreat” we call it and it certainly is that. Grandma and Grandad have now been to stay too and have absolutely loved it. “I could live here.” Grandma smiled. Grandad smiled too. Maybe, Nellie has found that perfect solution for us, to a problem we did not think we could find. Good old Nellie! Whatever will she do next? By Debbie Corney

Wimborne Minster’s God’s Acre wins Gold Award again Margaret Turner, who leads the small team of dedicated volunteers who look after and tend the area of land at the West End of Wimborne Minsters Churchyard known as God’s Acre, along with other members of the Team attended the recent prizegiving at the Dorset Wildlife Trust Headquarters at Brooklands Farm, Forston, Near Dorchester when she received a Gold Award Certificate from Roger Hirons. Roger, known as the Plant Doctor was the Principal speaker at the prizegiving. Certificates are awarded by the Dorset Wildlife Trust to those volunteer gardeners from churches who participate in the Dorset Wildlife Trust Living
Churchyard Scheme which aims to encourage wildlife in churchyards throughout the county. Assessors, who visited Wimborne in June, came to look at the churchyard and offer advice. The Minster church has won Gold for the last three years. This award scheme, which has been going since 1992, is sadly being discontinued but assessors from the Trust will always be willing to come and help the gardeners with their problems and queries. The small team of Minster gardeners are delighted to end with a top award and will go on trying to make God’s Acre, a wildlife friendly place.

Auto Biographies Motoring
2017 Seat Leon FR By Tim Barnes-Clay, www.carwriteups.co.uk
I’ve just spent seven days behind the wheel of the newest Leon – the three or five-door hatchback from Spanish automaker, SEAT. The contemporary model isn’t groundbreaking in looks – more progressive – and that is no bad thing. After all, why take a scalpel to an already fetching face? The Leon’s cousin is the VW Golf – and that, too, has been fine-tuned of late. The Spaniard is better looking than the German, but then beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. It’s less pricey to purchase, as well. I drove the FR Technology five-door variant, equipped with a 1.4 TSI 150 petrol unit. What’s different? Well, the Leon’s lights and grille have been given a slightly sharper look, but you’d have to really squint to notice. Then the FR model has been given full LED headlights, and its twin tailpipes denote that it has more spirit than the Leon’s below it. The hatchback’s six-speed manual transmission is easygoing and meticulous in finding the correct gears. The steering is nicely responsive, too. Might stems from the 1.4 petrol turbo powerplant – a smart unit that locks off half the cylinders, which helps conserve fuel. The Leon, in FR guise, is not a hot-hatch, but it’s a warm hatchback, with zero to 62mph realisable in 8.0 seconds. Additionally, due to that cylinder shut-off ingenuity, you can squeeze 57.6mpg out of the tank. The Leon FR Technology’s strength is tallied with good handling, and the SEAT adheres to apexes like epoxy resin. This is due to the FR’s 17-inch alloys and dropped suspension. The only disadvantage is the hard ride, which is perceptible on pitted road surfaces. Luckily, well-padded seats help make up for the car’s rigidity, and they’re
fantastic at keeping you supported when entering and exiting tight bends. The SEAT Leon’s cabin is well-judged, with ample room in the front and rear. Natty touches, for example: piano black trim, a touchscreen system and an electric handbrake, make the car’s interior feel chicer than the preceding model’s. The touchscreen tablet-esque media system kicks most of the buttons that used to be in the Leon to the kerb. This tidies the instrument panel up no end. Regrettably, regularly having to hunt for a function on the touchscreen can prove a little disrupting at times. The FR gets surplus kit packed into it as well, comprising: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; sat-nav; rear parking sensors; dual-zone climate control and cruise control. Furthermore, the boot is more than adequate, with a load capacity of 380 litres. It’s not the largest, but it equals the Golf’s – and it trounces the popular Ford Focus’ boot, which only offers 316 litres. So, yes, there is far more to the new SEAT Leon than its looks. It’s unquestionably less conformist than a Volkswagen Golf or a ubiquitous Ford Focus, and you happen to get a lot of motor for your money. Also, the 1.4 TSI 150 powerplant offers more ‘oomph’ than lesser petrol-propelled Leons. Plus, it’s quicker and less costly to buy than the 150ps diesel version..

Do you drive an automatic car? The majority of car manufacturers recommend changing the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) on automatic gearboxes every 40,000 miles. We have invested and are now equipped with the latest ATF exchanger machine, which runs flushing detergent through the gearbox, thus ensuring a 100% exchange of the total fluid capacity, unlike traditional methods. Are you experiencing any of the following? Rough gear change during acceleration Slow or delayed gearshifts Difficult to move from Park to Drive/Reverse
Noisy gear changes or loud running noise An increase in transmission vibrations

Gardening Tips
On Your Plot Feeling Fruity
Few flavours compare with that of fruit freshly picked from the garden. Much of the fruit available in the shops (particularly the supermarkets) has been grown for it’s ability to travel well rather than it’s flavour and may have been picked well before it’s arrival on the shelf. If you fancy apples from your own tree, or a bowl of raspberries fresh from the garden, now is the time to act.
Jobs for November :-
• Start to harvest parsnips after the first frosts. • Tidy up your greenhouse or polytunnel, wash out pots and seed trays before storing ready for the Spring • Sow hardy peas or broad beans ready for an early crop next year. • Use netting or chicken wire to protect your broccoli and cabbages from hungry pigeons. • If you haven’t already done so, plant garlic and shallots. • If your rhubarb is taking over, lift and divide the crowns before replanting.
If you are anything like me you will spend ages drooling over pictures of bushes dripping with blackcurrants or gooseberries, trees laden with apples, or bowls full of luscious raspberries but struggle to get to grips with the realities of production on your own plot! Patience is a virtue that is definitely required for growing your own, and this is particularly so with fruit trees and bushes. I have to confess to having an inclination to move on with anything that requires more than a few months to give a decent crop, but with most fruit you just have to force yourself to take the long term view and now being the proud owner of a 2 year old gooseberry bush and raspberry canes I can assure you that the waiting is worthwhile! Think carefully about where you will grow your fruit. Trees require lots of space (but are a wonderfully attractive addition to your plot) while bushes may be incorporated in your borders, but will probably need some protection if you aren’t going to loose a lot of fruit to the birds.
Late autumn is an ideal time to add fruit to your plot as trees and bushes will be entering their dormant period. It is important to buy healthy plants and to ensure that they are dormant as they will transplant more successfully. If you are ordering from a reputable mail order nursery they are likely to arrange delivery to coincide with the best time for planting. You should also get instruction on how to plant and care for your new tree or bush. Trees such as apple or plum may be grafted onto a variety of different rootstocks - this sounds complicated but all you really need to know is what effect this will have on the final size of the tree. If you have limited space it is possible to buy dwarf varieties some of which can even be suitable for container growing. Pollination is also an important consideration, some varieties are self-fertile and do not need a pollinator, while others may require another variety planted close by to act as a pollinator. When planting your tree out it may benefit from staking and protection around the base. One ‘fruit’ that is a little different and very easy to grow is Rhubarb. Rhubarb is actually classified as a vegetable, but certainly tastes good used like a fruit in crumbles and pies. November is the perfect time to plant out dormant crowns. Although these can be bought from nurseries Rhubarb tends to spread well when established and needs to be divided every few years so it is often possible to obtain surplus crowns from friends or neighbours. Plant your crown with the buds just above the soil and water well the first year. Once the plants have become established you can look forward to harvesting a good crop of delicious pink stems from Spring onwards very welcome as the first ‘fruit’ of the year.

News from Westminster This month my column should be called not “from Westminster” but “from Iraq”. I have recently returned from a trip to Iraqi Kurdistan. Kurdistan is a semiautonomous region of Iraq, and they held a referendum on being an independent country, a bit like the Scottish Independence referendum. I was there, based in the capital Erbil, as part of a delegation from the UK who were observing the referendum, to help demonstrate whether the vote was fair and open. It was a fascinating trip, both seeing the country and learning more about the region’s history and culture. The ballot papers were in five different languages, which gives a flavour of the differing backgrounds and cultures of the local people. Traditionally, Kurdistan has been a more Western-looking part of Iraq, with famously fierce fighters (the Peshmergas) who have been extremely successful in assisting in the removal of ISIL / Da’esh from the region. Kurdistan is generally considered to be a more progressive Muslim area in Iraq, with many Christians living peacefully alongside their Muslim neighbours. We visited the Archbishop in Kirkup, where there is a Christian community of around 5,000 and the Archbishop is in charge of the many Christian denominations there including Catholics, Protestants, Chaldeans, Assyrians and more. Polling day itself had quite a few differences to how we vote; all voters had to produce valid ID before voting, and after voting they had their finger stained with purple ink, to prevent them voting twice – lots of children were keen to have their fingers inked too! The staff were rigorous in all their checks, which led to queues at many polling stations, but the general mood was buoyant, and there was a festive atmosphere. There was a sense of occasion, with many people dressing up to go to vote – in traditional costume, in smart clothes, with some women in some quite resplendent and glamorous dresses. It was also really good to see that families often brought young children, some of whom were also dressed to the nines, wearing national colours and enjoying the atmosphere, to the polling places. This is definitely a culture we should adopt, to help encourage the next generation to vote. There were many demonstrations of a patriotic nature such as car cavalcades with waving flags and hooting horns,
and homes and businesses displayed “Yes” posters and national flags. There seemed particular excitement in Kirkuk, where participation in the referendum had seemed uncertain. Just like in Britain, the polling stations themselves were neutral in terms of referendum material. Initial results show that the vote was 93% in favour of independence, though the legality was rejected by the federal government in Baghdad. It is not clear what will happen next, but the vote itself was free and fair, with people being able to vote peacefully and I hope that it leads to fruitful negotiations between Erbil and Baghdad. Visiting a country that in such recent history had little democracy, reminded me how lucky we are in Britain that we are able to hold free and fair elections, where we do not fear police brutality when voting, and that we have freedom of speech. Back home in Dorset, I continue to hold regular surgeries for constituents.
