Tyre pressure is extremely important for the safe running of your car,
yet is one of the most overlooked points of car maintenance.
Over infl ated tyres are as bad as under infl ated, leading to uneven wear
and increased risk of a blowout.
Your vehicle manual will advise of you the recommended pressure for
normal road use, and in many cars this information can also can be found
on a label in the driver door archway.
Failure to maintain the necessary standard of tyre pressure could
result in a Fixed Penalty Notice, but more importantly, you could be
putting yours and others lives at risk.

Two hunters are walking through a forest looking for deer, when all of a
sudden, a giant bear jumps out and roars angrily at them. Th ey drop their
guns and run like hell. One of the hunters suddenly stopped, ducked down
behind a fallen tree, opened up his backpack and laced up a pair of high
quality trainers. His buddy looked at him and said, “What are you doing?
Are you crazy? You can’t outrun the bear!”
To this the hunter said, “I know, all I have to do is outrun you!”

Travel Feature -
So, close – Exotic Marrakech...

By Mags Addison
Marrakech is an assault on the senses – but in a good way. Everywhere
there are vibrant colours, the people are friendly, the food is amazing
and fresh, and the sights fascinating. If you want a short trip that
is exciting, exotic, entertaining, and full of experiences outside of
anything European, then do try a weekend in this interesting city.
This is North Africa at its best – and so easy to get to with direct
3-hour flight from various airports the UK. I recently visited and
stayed in a 4-star hotel which was well placed for getting around.
Complementary afternoon mint tea served in the foyer, and the
excellent and reasonable spa on the premises, made this a comfortable
place to stay.

Our tour guide Helen, made the holiday special by giving us the real authentic flavour of this fascinating
city. We toured the Medina and the souks, which were chaotic and fascinating. We were amazed by stalls
with their huge barrels of spices and nuts outside. Individual sellers on narrow corners selling pastries,
or big square trays of peanut brittle and sesame bars. The many fruit stalls bursting with colours. The
shoe souks, where you could see the shoes and bags being made as you passed, the smell of leather
following you tantalizingly. Beautifully crafted glass lanterns, and earthenware tagines in all hues and
sizes. Plus, pashminas, cushions, drapes, clothing and souvenirs. And in amongst these narrowed, crowded
passageways, there are people on small motorbikes everywhere - zipping in around the tourists and locals
alike.
We found a hidden garden – a haven deep in the busy Souks. We looked at green blues and white tiles
that adorn some of the Palaces, Mosques, and Riads we passed. And ate in authentic local restaurants,
that were excellent value for money – we also tried delicious tagine dishes, and couscous which was so
light, fluffy and aromatic. Followed by delicious Moroccan pastries. We dinned exquisitely one night in a
beautiful Riad in the city, and another night at a cheap and cheerful tarpaulin covered cafe on Jemaa el-
Fna Square, full of tourists and locals, and atmosphere.
It turned out Helen works for Complete Tours, which is Travel Counsellors destination tour guide for
Morocco. We work together, with our experience, and Complete Tours
local expertise to tailor make a trip that is individual and special to you. Excursions to the Atlas Mountains
and meeting ethnic Berber tribes. Or you can visit
Essaouira on the coast for the day, which is cosmopolitan
and relaxed, and a nice contrast to Marrakech for a few
hours. Or try it as a second centre.
Both Marrakech and Morocco itself, are vibrant, exotic,
and are easy to get too for either a short, or prolonged
visit. It’s good value, and there are some interesting
itineraries to extend your visit. Be greeted with bright
smiles of welcome – Mrehba. And leave knowing you
want to come back to discover more.

Just after her 80th birthday, my mother received a jury-duty notice. She
called the clerk’s offi ce to remind them that she was exempt because of her
age. “You need to come in and fi ll out the exemption forms,” the clerk said.
“But I fi lled them out last year,” she replied. “You have to fi ll them out every

2/ Beware High Valuations: Overvaluation is buying your business, ask for
recent comparable evidence. Ultimately you will need to reduce your price, a negative
that buyers do notice. “What is wrong with it”? they will be asking themselves.
3/ Beware Very Low Fees: Low fees need a high turnover of sales - pushing for sales
at any price. Cheap agents, cheap service, others may be “Virtual” The fact is many
buyers prefer to deal face to face with a real Human Being.
4/ Poor negotiators can cost you a fortune: Most houses don’t need a salesman, you
need a negotiator, a skill that can substantially improve your position. Use an agent
you feel has the right attributes, can negotiate well and knows their product.
5/ The multi agency trap: Don’t mistake for multi-listing. With multi-agency, one of
two things will happen, be persuaded with the first buyer (not the best buyer) - winning
the sale, or your agent may not try too hard, they may lose the race so may not start it.
Either way it is not good for you.
6/ No “For Sale” Signs: FOR SALE boards are 24 hour sales tools.
Buyers will drive the area they want to live in, keen to find they will make a fast
decision. If they see a property they like they will follow it up.
7/ Dismissing early Buyers : The best buyers often strike early with best prices,
perhaps been waiting to secure a home like yours. The longer on the market, the less
buyers will be attracted. Genuine buyers make the first move.
8/ Ignoring Agent Feedback: This can identify problem areas that can effect a
sale, you need honest feedback. After a period of time if they say it’s too expensive it
probably is.
9/ Keep It Clean: Dull Homes get dull prices. First Impressions count, inside and out.
Make your home sparkle and your price will shine.
10/ Experience Counts : Rarely do we get asked of our knowledge of the area the
facilities available how long have we been valuing in the area, experience of staff
and so on. You are paying for our expertise and experience, you need to make
sure we have some.

Brain Power


1: One snowy night, Sherlock Holmes was in his house sitting by a fi re. All of a
sudden a snowball came crashing through his window, breaking it.
Holmes got up and looked out the window just in time to see three neighborhood
kids who were brothers run around a corner. Their names were John Crimson,
Mark Crimson and Paul Crimson.
The next day Holmes found a note on his door that read
“? Crimson. He broke your window.”
Which of the Crimson boys should Sherlock Holmes question about the incident?

2: The sphinx wanted to know which one of the three gods stole the golden apple.
Was it Horus, Anubis or Osiris?
‘’I didn’t,’’ said Horus. ‘’Osiris did,’’ said Anubis. ‘’Anubis is lying,’’ said Osiris.

The sphinx knew that one god was telling the truth and the other two were lying.
Who stole the golden apple?

3: During World War 2, several British naval spies, on the lookout for enemy ships
and activities, posed as lobster fi shermen. They had large numbers of plastic,
orange-coloured lobsters made for their covert operations. These lobsters came
in various sizes with all the authentic markings. At night, the spies loaded the
lobsters into traps and threw them overboard. At daybreak, they would hoist the
traps aboard ship. The locals spotted them as fraudulent fi shermen from quite a
distance. How were they so easily detected?

4: You have 27 tennis balls. They all weigh the same except for
one which is heavier. Using a standard balance scale, what is the
minimum amount of weighings you must make to determine with all
certainty which is the heavier tennis ball? Answers on page 44

Danny was visiting his mate Brad who was in a new wing of the
hospital, following an accident with his DIY paint stripper. Danny
asked his mate what he thought about the place and things in general.
“The nurses are very good and so is the treatment” came the reply,
“But the food gets a bit boring.”
“What do you mean boring”, asked Danny?
“Well we get “Haggis” for breakfast, “Haggis”for our lunch and then
“Haggis”again for supper”. replied Brad.
“Well what do you expect”, says Danny. You are in the Burns Unit!

A prominent Welsh minister travelling home one night was greatly
annoyed when a young man much the worse for drink came and sat
next to him on the bus. “Young man,” he declared, “do you not realise
you are on the road to perdition?” “Oh, Hell,” replied the drunkard,
“I could have sworn this bus went to Llanelli.”

We meet in the Bradpole Road Community Centre at 2pm on the 1st Wednesday of every
month for a social afternoon, when we have different activities including a speaker, and
we welcome visitors who we hope may join us and become members of TG.
Our other activities include Trampers & Eaters (when we visit nearby places of interest
and end up with lunch), skittles, a music afternoon (all sorts) and a Social Studies
afternoon when we reminisce and discuss any current subjects of interest.

An elderly lady called an airline customer-service desk asking
if she could take her dog on the plane. She was told she could but
would have to pay for the hire of a special cage for the dog to travel in.
She asked how much that would cost. The assistant explained that the
costs varied depending on the size of the the cage and that it needed
to be large enough for the dog to stand up, sit down, turn around, and
roll over. The poor lady was quite upset and said: “I’ll never be able
to teach him all of that by Saturday!”

A talking sheepdog gets all the sheep in the pen, and reports back to

farmer. “I know,” says the sheepdog. “But I rounded them up.”

There is no beating the taste of truly fresh
fruit and veg especially, when it’s yours!
Gardening Tips for April
Now it is April, Easter is upon us and everyone is expecting the
warmer weather to arrive. Be warned, one warm day is not the start of
summer and frost is not unknown at this time of year.
Last month we concentrated upon the vegetable plot. Now it is
the time to focus on our fl ower garden. How to maximise all those
glorious colours and bring them into the house where possible.
Whether it is foliage or fl owers, there are hundreds of fl owers you can
set from seed in April.
It is probably best to sow your seeds indoors in modules or trays as
per the seed supplier’s instructions. Whilst these are germinating you
should prepare the ground you intend to plant them.
Consider the colour and height combinations for your borders. I have found a great wall chart you can
study in your planting preparations. Which plants are Perennial, Annual, Biennial, Hardy, Half Hardy.
Flowers that are great for arrangements, cutting fresh and others that are just right for drying.
hub.suttons.co.uk/featured/cut-fl ower-wall-chart-and-growing-guide
If you are planning a new bed it is best to take a bit of time and eff ort in the preparation. You would be
disappointed later on to have a weed infested border, so dig them out by hand now. At this point cover
the ground with some black plastic. In doing this any remaining weeds will seek out the light and after
a short time you can peel back the plastic to uncover the white roots. You should clear them thoroughly.
Flowers do not require much fertilizer but a dressing of Blood, Fish & Bone together with a little
Growmore will get your new plants going.
Gardening Tips for May
Marvellous May! One the most exciting and busy months of the gardening calendar.
If you have been growing Asparagus, you only have about 5 to 6 weeks
left to harvest the best delicious shoots from your crop.
Potatoes will need earthing up to protect the stems, help prevent the
tubers from becoming green and poisonous whilst assisting
further tuber growth.
Create some protection for your Brassicas, Carrots and Fruit Bushes.
Cover seed beds with fl eece to keep the soil warmer in readiness for sowing.
In the greenhouse you should give good ventilation on warm days to limit the amount of airborne
moisture and reduce the risk of seedlings ‘Damping Off ’. My wife uses only tap water for seeds and
seedlings rather than rain water and this seems to work in reducing the damage caused by damping off .
Now is a good time to place your Grow Bags in the greenhouse to warm up in readiness for planting,
Tomatoes, Peppers, Aubergines, Chillies, Melons and Cucumbers.
There is no truth in the fear of Bitterness or Cross Pollination in the growing Melons and Cucumbers
together. Give it a go if you want to.
Soft fruit such as Raspberries and Gooseberries may require thinning out to avoid overcrowding and
assist in a more juicy harvest. Any Strawberry runners required for raising new plans later should have
the fl ower buds removed to make them stronger.
Do try to collect rainwater for those occasions when we do have a dry spell.
Keep the lawn mowed weekly. Trim the edges to create a gully and prevent the grass from creeping into
your borders.

Project Indigo
One boy’s adventure through time and space!

Hi, I’m Tom, a local Doctor Who blogger & I write about my adventures online at
anadventurethroughtimeandspace.com
Project Indigo is my special blog where I travel the world (mainly
the UK!) visiting places associated with Doctor Who.
This month we are visiting a special ship in Charlestown in
Cornwall, filming location for the 2011 Doctor Who episode ‘The
Curse of the Black Spot’. In this episode the Eleventh Doctor, Amy
and Rory are aboard a ship called The Fancy in 1699. The pirate
crew believe they are being attacked by a Siren and that the curse
of the black spot is upon them!
In real life The Fancy is actually a tall ship called The Phoenix of
Dell Quay and she is moored in Charlestown. She was built in 1929
in Denmark and her first job was to carry people around the world
to spread the word about Christian beliefs. After 20 years she became a cargo ship until
one day there was a fire which damaged her engine room. Like the Doctor, The Phoenix
has had many regenerations - her first life was as a schooner, then she regenerated into a
Brigantine, then a Caravel and finally the two-masted brig that she is today.
The Phoenix is a famous film and TV star and has starred in many other things besides
Doctor Who. She played the Santa Maria in 1492 Conquest of Paradise which told the story
of Christopher Columbus. So technically she discovered America! She has also appeared in
Hornblower, The Scarlet Pimpernel, The TV Series The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and In
the Heart of the Sea starring Chris Hemsworth.
Charlestown is also a filming location for many shows - most famously Poldark starring
Aiden Turner. Charlestown is a port that has remained true to its original Georgian style. It
was built in the 1790s by entrepreneur Charles Rashleigh to import coal and export copper
because of the growing mining industry in the area. Soon china clay was being exported
too and still is to this day. The China Clay industry around St
Austell progressed massively and by the 19th Century over
65,000 tonnes of China Clay were exported from Cornwall
every year!
Charlestown remains near enough unspoilt, still a working
harbour, and around thirty china clay ships still dock there
every year. It really does feel like you have travelled there in
a TARDIS as it has not changed - and hopefully it never will.
Thank you for reading and if you would like to read about
other Doctor Who locations I have visited please check out

A zookeeper is restocking new animals. As he fills out the
forms, he types “two mongeese.” That doesn’t look right, so he tries
“two mongoose,” then “two mongooses.” Giving up, he types, “One
mongoose, and while you’re at it, send another one.”

“Comfortable Feet”

It’s important that our feet are comfortable whether
we are working or going for a leisurely walk. Insoles
are an excellent way to achieve comfortable feet.
Insoles are beneficial for a few simple reasons:

1. They provide cushioning and support
2. They are an efficient way of relieving foot pain
3. Improved performance during athletic activities

Here is a quick guide explaining these points in more detail.
Our insoles are individually molded to your feet so they provide the support and cushioning
needs for your feet. With this support, your feet will fatigue less easily, meaning you can enjoy
your activities throughout the day.
There are three primary foot types which affects our bodies way of absorbing impact:
overpronation, excessive supination and neutral. Overpronation occurs when the foot rolls
inwardly excessively and excessive supination is the opposite when the foot rolls to the outside.
Neutral is when weight is distributed evenly across the foot. Whatever your foot type though,
our insoles can properly support your arches into the neutral position in order to maintain a
balanced state and a healthy foot function.

Another common problem which insoles can help is plantar
fasciitis. Common symptoms of this condition is pain in the heel
and is most often felt during the first few steps of the day and
after rest. Our insoles can help reduce the strain on the plantar
fascia muscle, allowing the muscle to time it needs to heal.

Bunions can also be helped with insoles by repositioning the
foot to reduce pressure on the bunion area. This is achieved by
supporting the transverse arch which runs across the middle
of the foot from the outside to the inside. This arch provides
flexibility and support for the foot.

Finally, your sporting activities can be improved by using insoles. Sports injuries can occur
due to the repetitive and sudden movements in the feet. The most common injuries occur in
the ligaments and are related to the overuse and structural misalignment of the foot.
This can be prevented by ensuring your feet are kept in the neutral position while still
delivering dynamic flex for the arches. This support also improves energy transfer and reduces
wasted motion.
