These days most homeown- ers suffer from a lack of storage space. So many precious items that need to be kept – but where to store it all? That’s where York- shire Loft Ladders come in. The company, based locally, offers homeowners the oppor- tunity to maximise their storage space with a loft ladder, 50 sq ft of boarding and a light all fully fitted in less than a day from just £277 + VAT. But it’s not just the affordability of the package the company offers that makes Yorkshire Loft Ladders stand out as manager Warren Ingleson explains: ‘Our watchwords are Quality, Integrity and Value. Quality in the materials that we use for all our installations and the fact that all our loft packages are fitted by time served trades- men so our customers are assured of the best job. Integ- rity in that we will turn up at the time we say and make sure the house is spotless when we leave, and Value in that we offer our services at a price people can afford. Our busi- ness relies on referrals and we got a huge amount of our calls from people who have been referred to us by our existing customers - that simply would- n’t happen if we didn’t adhere to our overriding principles. At the end of the day the old adage that happy customers lead to more happy customers is true and we work hard to make that happen for every installation we carry out!’ So, if you want to make use of your loft space, however big or small, call Warren on 0800 612 8359 and he’ll be happy to pop round and give you a no obligation quote so you too can make use of your loft!

6 Health & Wellbeing Please mention when responding to advertisers. Thank you. Most of us feel a little blue when the nights get darker and the days get shorter, but some people experience something a lot more serious that a touch of the winter blues! Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression and a recognised mental health disorder that occurs mostly during the winter months. Whereas it is normal to feel more cheerful and energetic when the sun is shining, people with SAD will experience a great affect on their mental health as winter sets in. With winter comes less natural light, and it is thought that this is one of the most likely causes of SAD. When light hits the back of the eye, messages are passed to the part of the brain that controls sleep, appetite, sex drive, temperature, mood and activity. When there’s not enough light, these functions can slow down and gradually stop. Some people seem to need a lot more light than others for their bodies and minds to function adequately. These are the people more likely to develop SAD symptoms if they are exposed to low levels of light. So what are the symptoms of SAD? SAD has many different symptoms and it’s important to understand that you don’t need to suffer from all of them to be experiencing SAD. According to a local chiropractor, some of the most common symptoms of the disorder include: l reduced energy for everyday tasks, such as studying or going to work l problems with concentration l sleep issues such as needing to sleep for longer than usual or not being able to get to sleep l feelings of depression such as feeling sad, worthless, tearful, guilty or like you have let others or yourself down. Some people may experience feelings of hopelessness and despair or even emptiness and apathy. l anxiety and a reduced ability to deal with everyday stresses l overeating, comfort eating or snacking more than usual l being more susceptible to illness. Some people with SAD may have a weakened immune system during the winter, making them more prone to developing colds, infections and other illnesses. l feeling irritable or not wanting to see people l drug or alcohol use If you think you may be suffering from SAD we recommend you visit a healthcare professional for help. There is help available! Feeling SAD About Winter?

8 Please mention when responding to advertisers. Thank you. Recipe Baked aubergine with spiced lamb, mint & pomegranate Serves 2 Aubergines are great vessels for stuffing. We’ve given the lamb a Middle Eastern style spicing and have served it sprinkled with almonds, mint and pomegranate, though you can leave out the pomegranate if you can’t find any. Good with couscous, a leafy side salad or wilted spinach. Ingredients 1 large aubergine sunflower oil/light olive oil, for frying / roasting 25g flaked almonds 1 onion, finely diced 1 large garlic clove, finely chopped or crushed 300g minced lamb 2 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp dried mint ¼ tsp smoked paprika ¼ tsp chilli flakes 4 large tomatoes, skinned & chopped 1 pomegranate handful of mint leaves, shredded salt and black pepper Method Heat the oven to 220˚C/Gas 7. Cut the aubergine in half lengthways. Score the flesh in a criss-cross pattern. Drizzle liberally with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place skin-side up in a baking dish. Bake for 45 minutes or until the flesh is soft and tender right the way through. Meanwhile, put the almonds in a dry frying pan. Heat gently, stirring, until golden. Remove to a plate and keep to one side. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry on a low heat, stirring, for 10 minutes. Add the lamb and fry, stirring, on a medium heat to brown. Add the garlic, cumin coriander, dried mint, smoked paprika and chilli flakes and stir for 2 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes. Season and simmer for 30 minutes, adding a splash of water if needed to stop the meat drying out. Cut the pomegranate in half crossways. Take a rolling pin or the handle of a wooden spoon. Hold the pomegranate cut-side down in your hand over a bowl and bash the skin; the seeds will fall out (most of them anyway). Pick out any pith that does fall in; there shouldn’t be much with this technique, but it tastes bitter, so remove any you find. Once the aubergine flesh is tender, remove it from the oven. Carefully scoop out as much of the flesh as you can, keeping the aubergine skins intact. Add the flesh to the lamb. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes. Check the seasoning. Spoon the lamb mixture into the aubergine skins. Sprinkle over the almonds, pomegranate seeds and mint to serve.

10 Literature Please mention when responding to advertisers. Thank you. This Much Is True by Miriam Margolyes Miriam Margolyes is one the UK’s national treasures. Now, at the age of 80, she has finally decided to tell her extraordinary life story. Find out how being conceived in an air-raid gave her curly hair; what pranks led to her being known as the naughtiest girl Oxford High School ever had, how she ended up posing nude for painter Augustus John as a teenager, why Bob Monkhouse was the best (male) kiss she’s ever had, how she declared her love to Vanessa Redgrave and being told to be quiet by the Queen, this book is packed with brilliant, hilarious stories. With a cast list stretching from Scorsese to Streisand, a cross-dressing Leonardo di Caprio to Isaiah Berlin, This Much Is True is warm, honest and full of surprises. Old Rage by Sheila Hancock Sheila Hancock looked like she was managing old age. She had weathered and even thrived in widowhood, taking on acting roles that would have been demanding for a woman half her age. She had energy, friends, a devoted family, a lovely home. She could still remember her lines. So why, at 89, having sailed past supposedly disturbing milestones – 50, 70, even 80 – without a qualm, did she suddenly feel so furious? Shocking diagnoses, Brexit and bereavement seemed to knock her from every quarter. And that was before lockdown. Home alone, classified as ‘extremely vulnerable’, she found herself yelling at the TV and talking to pigeons. But she can at least take a good long look at life – her work and family, her beliefs and, uncomfortable as it might be to face, her future. This is the result of that introspection. Busy Being Free by Emma Forrest Born in London, Emma Forrest began her writing career as a teenage columnist on the Sunday Times, going on to have columns in the Guardian, the Independent and Elle. By 30, she had published three novels and exited New books for October journalism to work in Hollywood as a screenwriter. Now the author of Your Voice in My Head and Royals has written a beautiful, unputdownable memoir about love and heartbreak, sex and celibacy, growing up and starting again. This is a story of swapping a Hollywood marriage and LA mansion with waterside views for an attic flat shared with just her daughter in north London. Here, she finds herself elated to be alone with herself, someone she genuinely thought she might never get to see again. This is what follows when, after a life guided by romantic obsession, she decides to turn her back not only on marriage, but all romantic and sexual attachments. The Crane Wife by Christina Joyce Hauser Ten days after calling off her wedding, CJ Hauser went on an expedition to study the whooping crane. After a week wading through the gulf, she realised she had almost signed up to live somebody else’s life. In this intimate, frank and funny memoir in essays, CJ lets go of ‘how life was supposed to be’ and goes looking for more honest ways of living. She kisses internet strangers, officiates a wedding, visits a fertility clinic. She reads Rebecca in the house her new boyfriend shared with his ex-wife and rewinds Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story to ask if you can ever have a fresh start with an old love. She writes about friends and lovers, grief and heartbreak, blood family and chosen family, and asks what more expansive definitions of love might offer us all. How To Live When You Could Be Dead by Dame Deborah James At the age of 35, Deborah James was blindsided by incurable bowel cancer – and was given a less than 8% chance of surviving five years. More than five years later – and just months after her untimely death – her book How to Live When You Could Be Dead shows readers how to build a positive mindset and, through this, think about what they could do if they believed they could do anything they want.

Gardening 12 Please mention when responding to advertisers. Thank you. Vegetable seeds to sow from early October onwards Early October is still a good time to sow veg seeds for winter and spring, including leafy crops, autumn onions and broad beans. October is a time to plan ahead and start sowing the vegetables that will provide valuable winter harvests and earlier spring and summer pickings. The soil is still warm, so seeds will germinate quickly. If the weather is still fine, the growing season can continue for several weeks. Here is our list of vegetables you can still sow in early October: Leafy veg Spring cabbages and spinach can be sown now for pickings next spring. Cover the spinach with fleece from mid/late October onwards. Salad crops There’s still time to sow salad crops to harvest in the coming weeks. Sow in a sheltered spot outdoors, or grow in pots. Try mustard leaf, winter salad mixes, mizuna or mibuna. Winter lettuces such as ‘Winter Density’ can be sown under glass. Broad beans and peas Sowing broad beans in autumn means plants can establish over winter and crop earlier next spring. Broad beans and peas are hardy, but it’s advisable to cover plants with fleece during hard frosts or snow. Try broad bean ‘Aquadulce Claudia’ or pea ‘Feltham First’. Radish Radishes mature in just a couple of weeks, so it’s worth sowing a late batch of seeds now, for a late crop. Turnips Turnips are another fast-growing crop that can be sown on bare soil in September – they do best in cool, moist conditions. Harvest as golf-ball sized, baby veg in around six weeks. Perfect for the Christmas table. Onions, shallots and garlic Planting onion sets in autumn means you will get an earlier crop next year. Choose a variety that’s ideal for autumn sowing, such as ‘Troy’ or ‘Radar’. Garlic can be sown any time between now and spring.

THE QUEEN’S LIFE OF SERVICE I always knew I’d be upset when the Queen died, but I was surprised by the real sense of loss I felt. Perhaps I shouldn’t have been. She’s been such a constant in our lives, always there, steadfast and faithful, working right up to the last moment. I’ve always been a fan of hers, but I’m often struck by how much more we learn about someone when they die. Wouldn’t it be nice to know all of the wonderful things people have done when they’re still alive, so we can appreciate those aspects of them? So, it’s been an emotional time over the last month, because it also brings back memories of my own parents and family members and friends I’ve lost. I’m sure it’s been the same for you. What a remarkable woman she was and what an incredible life of service she led. The thousands of people who queued to pay their respects and lined the streets was a sight to behold. May she rest in peace. THE CHANGING SEASON The summer may now be a memory, but Autumn is beautiful and I always look forward to it. The changing colours of the leaves on the trees, reds, golds and oranges. When they fall, I love walking through the piles of crunching leaves on the floor. There’s already a definite chill to the air now on my morning dog walks, but I’m resisting putting on my heating, at least until the end of October (that’s the plan anyway!). It’s also the time of year for puddings with custard! I seem to have been given a lot of apples recently from friends who have apple trees, so I’m planning on batch cooking a load of apple crumbles or other apple-based recipes! I’ll have to get my cookbooks out! Any ideas? Do let me know! STRICTLY IS BACK! And finally, the glitz, the glamour and the sequins - they’re all back with the new season of Strictly Come Dancing! Fab-u-lous daaaarling! To be honest, I only know about a quarter of the celebrities – but who cares? I daresay I’ll have my favourites in a few weeks’ time! I just love watching it, it’s pure escapism on a Saturday night. Hope you enjoy it too! Have a fantastic month everyone! Stay safe!
