A Chester & Wirral business owner is making the blindingly obvious claim that window Blinds, Shutters & Curtains have a big part to play in the fight against rising energy bills over the coming months as autumn & winter approach. Marc McQuilliam from Apollo Blinds believes that homeowners dont recognise the full energy-saving capabilities of window blinds, shutters & curtains because they often regard them as more decorative items and forget they are a great weapon in the fight against heat loss escaping through windows.

To
He is keen to point out the importance of closing blinds and shutters to stop heat escaping through windows, then drawing your curtains across to make a massive difference to your home.
I know its a very simple message, but one that a lot of homeowners dont always heed and its astounding the amount of heat loss that can be prevented by diligently drawing blinds and closing shutters, said Marc who owns Apollo Blinds Chester & Wirral (which has a new showroom in Handbridge Chester).
Marc points to a study done in Edinburgh which used thermal images of random homes in the city to demonstrate how much heat is lost through windows.
Duette blinds are a modern take on pleated blinds and have a patented double-walled honeycomb design which allows them to form air pockets that give them energy-saving properties. They can reduce the amount of heat that escapes through windows by a third during the winter and are also one of the best blackout blinds on the market, as there are no stitching holes for light to penetrate through. Then there are shutters which come into their own during the winter months providing privacy and excellent energy-saving properties. As well as the traditional wooden ones, there is a new collection of attractive vinyl shutters which are superb at keeping heat in. While the focus is quite rightly on energy saving, Marc also says that blinds, shutters and curtain look stunning as well. As well as performing a vital function, blinds, shutters and curtains also look gorgeous with stunning fabrics and wood finishes which can set any room off a treat, he said.
Blinds and curtains can act as an all-important physical barrier in preventing heat escaping through windows and should be drawn at every opportunity during the winter months.

IN THE NEWS
CRIMEFILE Some of the crimes reported in this area recently include the following: l Cavendish Mews Three No Parking signs were stolen l Sycamore Drive Six solar lamps were stolen by the thieves who also stood on plants. l Castlecroft Road A blue Sachs motorcycle was stolen from the back of the shops. l Curzon Close An unlocked Peugeot ladies bicycle was stolen from the driveway. l Handbridge Police arrested and charged a man after he was found to be in possession of heroin. He was originally sighted on CCTV acting suspiciously. l Boundary Lane A thief broke into a Renault Clio and stolen an electric guitar and bicycle l Thieves stole a large amount of lead from the roof of St Mary Church, Dodleston. Handbridge Flower Club THiS months meeting is on Thursday 18th October at 1.45pm in St Marys Parish Hall, when Keith Smithies, a National demonstrator from Rhos on Sea will take Autumn into Advent as his theme. Visitors (5) are welcome. Dying trees to be cut down WORKS to remove a number of dying and diseased trees at the Dingle in Handbridge has begun. The trees were identified as dead, dangerous or dying through a professional tree report commissioned by the Councils Greenspace team. The works are part of a larger project to increase safety, as well as improving the quality of the boroughs woodlands and the Councils tree stock as a whole. Local member for Handbridge Park, Cllr Neil Sullivan, said: Whilst nobody likes to see trees being removed from our open spaces in this case it is unavoidable and the only option open to us. Each of the trees has been monitored by the Councils Greenspace team for some time now and a decision has been taken to remove them for the safety of the public. Should any of the trees fall they will land on one of the main roads into Chester or onto the paths in the Dingle that are used daily by lots of people walking into Chester. We must put the safety of walkers and motorists first, which unfortunately on this occasion means the removal of the trees.

Older adults should aim to be active every day, adding up to at least 150 minutes (2 hours) a week of moderate intensity activity. A good way to approach this is to do thirty minutes activity on at least five days a week. For those who are already regularly physically active at moderate intensity, similar benefits can be achieved through 75 additional minutes of more vigorous intensity activity spread across the week or a combination of moderate and vigorous activity.

SEBORRHOEIC KE
These are brown crusty lumps found in adults usually over the age of 40. They used to be known as seborrhoeic warts or senile warts. As they are not actually warts (they are neither infectious nor contagious) and as senile was not a welcome description for anyone, let alone in their 40s, the condition was renamed! extending out to under the arm. Men more commonly have them around their waist. Although not dangerous in any way they can be very unsightly. The cause of seborrhoeic Keratosis is an over thickening of the cells in the epidermis caused by sun damage, friction or rubbing. In a normal skin in the epidermis, which is the top layer, the basal (R) cells are formed The brown colour PRIORI Invigorating Face & at the base of may vary from vary Body Scrub to remove debris on the epidermis. pale flesh coloured Gradually these to dark brown to skin after the summer to reveal cells work almost black.

ERATOSIS
thickened as it is producing abnormal amounts of keratin. This is why the surface is rough and crusty and the condition is slightly raised sitting on top of the skin. seborrhoeic Keratosis used to be removed surgically under local anaesthetic and stitched, or was treated by freezing using liquid nitrogen, both methods leaving a scar after many months of healing. electro Micro surgery (eMs) or Advanced Cosmetic Procedure (ACP) gently sloughs off the keratinised lesion using a sterilised electrolysis needle. A scab will form and after a few days will drop off naturally to reveal pale pink skin that will return to normal coloured skin in a matter of weeks. That particular seborrhoeic Keratosis
will not reform, but others may form in an area close to the site due to the reason for the problem in the first place, and those can be removed by the same method. At The hough Green Clinic we treat seborrhoeic Keratosis after a detailed consultation. If there are any doubts to the identity of the lesion we will first require a visit to your doctor for verification in writing before any treatment commences. For any further information or help about this condition or any other skin conditions, please contact either myself or samantha.

A BUTCHERS BLOG
with Bruce Edge, from Ernest W.Edge & Son Butchers, Handbridge
onE of the lovely things about British food are the Seasons. Eating fresh produce in season always seems to taste better and with a game season closed since February there is much to look forward to. All our wonderful game birds, rabbits and venison are now on the menu. The new game season is now underway and one of the true delights of Autumn is our increasingly popular local venison. Superb quality, sourced little more than one mile from the overleigh Roundabout! Venison is high in protein, low in fat and has fewer calories than other red meats. Venison is particularly low in saturated fatty acids and contains higher iron levels than other meats. Summed up, it is an excellent meat which ticks all the boxes and is available from the beginning of october to the end of January. one of my favourite recipes is Venison Casserole with Beer. Enjoy!
Ingredients: 900g diced venison shoulder | 2 tbsp oil | 2 onions, peeled and roughly chopped| 150g piece smoked streaky bacon or pancetta diced | 1 tbsp plain flour| 300ml beef or venison stock | 300ml brown ale| 2 tsp soft light brown sugar | 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed | 1-2 bay leaves | 2 sprigs of thyme| roasted baby carrots to serve Recipe: 1. Preheat the oven to 130C/Gas Mark 2. Heat 1 tbsp oil and fry the venison in batches for 5-6 mins until browned on all sides, adding a little extra oil as necessary. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon to leave the juices. 2. Add onions to the casserole and fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring occcasionally until lightly browned, add the bacon and fry for a further 2 minutes. Return all the meat and any accumulated juices to the pan. Add the garlic then stir in the flour. Gradually stir in the stock and ale, scraping up any juices stuck to the bottom of the pan. Heat, stirring until simmering. 3. Add in the sugar, bay leaves and thyme and season with freshly ground black pepper. Cover the casserole with a tight fitting lid or foil and cook in the oven for at least 2 hours or until the meat is tender. Serve with roasted baby carrots.
