Looking over the Edge
The last year has flown by but it could be that as the Christmas hype starts earlier every year, it just feels like it. I always thought that when I gave up the day job I would have more time to do all the hobbies and visits that I had been looking forward to. Sadly I am one of those people who, if I have a space in my day, I fill it with something that is normally a long term commitment and which I regret taking on when life gets busy again. However, at least this year I achieved my New Year Resolution. Normally I resolve to lose weight - and fail, or do more chores (why would I?) or improve my guitar playing (miracle needed). This year I resolved to watch all the Star War movies. Yes, unbelievably, I had never seen them as I was at sea in the 70s when the first one, which was really the fourth was, released and felt that my life was not complete until I had. Just one to go "The Force Awakens" so well on target. It has been a very busy year with the Edge. We are in the process of expanding in collaboration with Around Wellington and Local Pages (a West Country publishing Company) and starting Edge Print and Design. These are all in their relative infancy but as they develop my customers and reader(s) should benefit. To help me with this business expansion I am delighted that Penny, my sales manager, has agreed to increase her hours and already she is proving her worth and most advertisers are benefitting from not having to speak to me. As well as Penny I must take this opportunity to thank my distributors who make sure the Edge gets to your door. Not least the 1st Wellington and Rockwell Green Scouts and their parents who do the bulk of the deliveries,which raises much needed funds for them. Friends and family also help out which is a real bonus. - I appreciate you more than I probably say Finally a huge thank you to all the contributors whose editorials are such a great editon to the magazine and the advertisers, without you we couldn't survive, have a great Christmas and New Year.

WELLINGTON REMEMBERS The Mayor of Wellington, Cllr Bob Bowrah, Councillors and Officers joined the Remembrance Sunday Parade through the town followed by the service in the park. The Mayor of Taunton Deane and the local MP also joined the event. The Mayor laid a wreath on behalf of the Town Council at the war memorial. It was fantastic to see so many members of the community attending this event to remember those that had fallen for our country.
The town fell silent on 11 November at 11am to mark Armistice Day. The Mayor of Wellington, Councillors and Officers, accompanied by Royal British Legion and Wellington School CCF representatives and standard bearers, paraded into the town centre. Shopkeepers, school pupils and shoppers came out and lined the streets to mark the 2 minutes silence. Please remember to mention The Edge Directory when responding to adverts

MUSGROVE BUS SERVICE At a recent Council meeting attention had been drawn to the problems caused by the lack of a bus service from Wellington to Musgrove Park Hospital. A petition containing over 3,000 signatures calling for the reintroduction of such a service had been collected by Debbie Pemberton. Representatives of the Council had recently met with the County Council and Buses of Somerset and it was strongly emphasised that the problem had arisen following the demise of Webberbus who had previously routed buses to the hospital. The point was made most strongly that the lack of a regular service to the hospital was unacceptable to the community when there was such an obvious need as shown by the strength of the petition. In view of the evidence of such strong feeling the bus company was asked to amend existing routes to incorporate a regular service that went to and from Musgrove Park Hospital. Unfortunately it was made clear that there were no plans to provide this service. However, there were alternatives available to passengers wishing to get to and from the hospital by public transport such as the Slinky Bus Service. There was also a service that went from the Bus Station to the hospital with no extra charge. Hospital Transport was available in some cases and the Wivey Link Service also provided a service.

Wellington Monument Helen Sharp, Wellington Monument’s Project Manager has the latest news on the Monument. On 14 November vital drilling for samples from the core of the Monument will take place with an Open Day on Saturday 19 November when experts will be on hand to answer any questions from members of the public. Following all the surveys and investigations that have been made over the past 18 months, we estimate that a full repair to conserve the Monument will cost £4m but this figure is subject to findings from the samples. If more problems are revealed this could considerably raise the costs and put the project at risk so it’s a big moment for the project. On 2 December there will be an evening of carols in association with the Blackdown Hills AONB and with singing from the Smeatharpe WI and Blackdown Community Choir. The Monument will be illuminated to celebrate the festive season. All are welcome to attend with further information on the Blackdown Hills website: http://www.blackdownhillsaonb.org.uk/Carols-under-the-Stars-02-12-2016-Event.htm The Monument Champion volunteers have been out and about over the past few months talking to lots of different people about what the Monument means to them and how they would like to be involved. Lots of new friends have been made and it’s been a fantastic and inspiring experience to start to truly understand the benefits that we can bring to different people through the project. All the feedback will be used to develop the thinking for activities, information, events etc in a way we hope will make them engaging and fully inclusive. A little later in December we submit our application to the Heritage Lottery Fund for a large part of £4m total needed. We find out in March 2017 if its been successful and, if so, a campaign will be launched locally to raise the additional funds required to save our Monument.

Free Car Parking for Christmas Cllr Habgood of Taunton Deane Borough Council has agreed to free car parking on the five Saturdays leading up to Christmas. This maintains the tradition of goodwill in an effort by TDBC to help the local economy. Charges in Longforth Road, North Street and South Street Car Parks will be waived for the whole day on 26 November as well as 3, 10, 17 and 24 December 2016. Christmas Light Switch On - 3 December The Town Council’s Switch On of the Town Centre Christmas Lights will take place on Saturday 3 December this year. The High Street will be closed to traffic from 4pm onwards to enable a variety of activities to take place. Father Christmas will be arriving to take his place in his Grotto, escorted by the Wellington Majorettes. The Majorettes will give their usual excellent Christmas themed display. Music and entertainment on the trailer will be provided by the award winning Wellington Pantomime Society. Once again, Langford Lakes have donated a splendid Christmas tree for the town centre and the massed choir of Beech Grove School will be leading the Carol Singing around the tree. The Christmas message this year will be given by pupils of Beech Grove as well and will herald the start of the Christmas sheep competition organised by Churches Together. Celebration of Light The Celebration of Light in the Quaker Meeting House will begin during the evening of the £rd December with the lighting of candles in peace garden. New this year will be a double decker play bus which is being provided free of charge for all the children.

Taunton Deane’s Own Tech Tips Column
Are you using Win 10, Win 10 or Win 10? Unless you’ve been on a round trip to Mars over the last 2 years, you will by now have heard about Windows 10. All new PCs you buy in the shops now come with it. But did you know there are already 3 versions of Windows 10? You want to be on the most recent version to get all the bug fixes. Microsoft have proudly announced Windows 10 will be ‘the last version of Windows ever’. I think they meant ‘The last rebranding ever’. In other words, all Windows versions going forward, apparently, will be called “Windows 10”. But we are already on what really should be called Windows 10.2. Windows 8 was updated after the outcry about how bad it was, to Windows 8.1. But no such renaming is happening to Windows 10. To find out what version of Windows 10 you have, press these keys on your PC, in this order. (No need to use the mouse.)

Mac & iPad Updates!
Apple have also been rather busy releasing major updates for Mac computers and iPads (& iPhones). In Sept they released macOS Sierra for Mac computers. It’s a free download.
Also, iOS 10 was released for iPad and iPhone. Settings, then General then Software Update will show the details. However my advice is give new Apple updates at least 6 months before installing, so they can fix all the bugs that inevitably come with these releases. Until later into 2017 I’m sticking with Mac El Capitan & iPad iOS 9.3!
A box appears on screen with your version of Windows 10 you have. Look for a 5 digit number followed by a dot and other numbers, eg 10586.343. The first 5 numbers will be either 10240, 10586 or 14383. You need to be on 14383 - the latest version (also confusingly called Version 1607, or Anniversary Update), to get all the bug fixes and improvements. If you are on 10240 or 10586, open your browser (Edge, Chrome or Firefox) and type this on the top line, press Enter, then follow the directions to download the update: support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/12387

Relax and Enjoy the Winter Season
Winter is now creeping in, and time for us to be thinking about trying our best to stay in good health. There are many ways we can help ourselves to do this.
Coughs and colds are prevalent at this time, so by taking a few careful steps we can protect ourselves and others from spreading the virus. Sneezing and coughing are common ways of passing the virus on; do this into a tissue and then throw it away. If a tissue is not available, cough or sneeze into the crease of your elbow. Avoid coughing or sneezing into your hand as it is likely you will go on to touch another person, a door handle, shopping trolley etc… and transfer the virus ready for someone else to pick up. Christmas is a time most of us look forward to, but this time of year can also bring unwanted stress and pressure. We all experience christmas in different ways. It can be a joyous time spent with friends and family, but it can also be a time of stress and anxiety. The pressure of getting everything done can sometimes be overwhelming and can send us into panic mode. Below are some tips that may help: “Stop - take a step back - and breathe…” Taking a few deep breaths can make all the difference. It’s easy to do and will only take up a minute or so of your time. So when you feel the pressure is on, stop what you are doing, sit on a chair, close your eyes and take some deep breathes until you feel calmer and more focused. This really only needs to take 1 minute of your time.
32
“Got organised, write it down…” Make a list; it’s that simple! Lists can take the pressure off; when we write our tasks on paper we don’t have to try to remember all the things we need to get done. Keep your list simple and in order of priority. When each task is completed, cross it off the list. Re-write your list regularly so that it is clear to look. Anxiety levels drop when you can see that you are actually achieving things. “Relax…” Take time out to do something for yourself that will help you to relax and enable you to enjoy the festive season. Studies show that people who partake in complementary therapies are more relaxed and deal with stress and anxiety better; you can Þnd more information about this on the internet. Anxiety decreases the function of the immune system and therefore we get sick more often. So reducing anxiety can help us to stay healthy. Therapeutic touch has a positive effect on the body and mind. Circulation and blood ßow increase and this helps to move oxygen around all cells in the body. It helps to calm the mind and relax the muscles. Stress, tension and anxiety are reduced, and we then feel more relaxed and are more able to deal with the pressures around us. ÒAnd ÞnallyÉ laugh plenty and enjoy itÓ Maria Chrysostomou is a reßexology practitioner at Holistics, Wellington

The 19th also saw the launch of the Santa grotto, which will run every Saturday until Christmas – 10am to 2pm The popular Walking trail is being launched on 3 rd December with a Santa themed trail for this year – see below for more details. All in all – it’s going to be a FABULOUS Christmas in Wellington!
Santa is in Town! Santa will be in his grotto at the Castle Halls (The Scout Hall next to Co-op) between 10am and 2pm Every Saturday until Christmas

Proud to Bring Christmas Events to Wellington!
We are also running our Santa’s Boot Walking trail for the children and this year all local primary schools are being asked to sell the trail leaflet for £1 and they will keep half of this – so please support your local www.pointthree.org.uk Supported By school by purchasing one. Thanks!

Time to Get Real
by Greg Sellers Investment Manager, Hawksmoor Investment Management There is a saying that ‘cash is king’. This phrase is often used during times of market mayhem; for example, it was heard frequently during the financial crisis in late 2008. Cash is indeed an important part of any investment strategy. If you fear that markets are going to fall off a cliff, it is sensible to switch some of your money out of investments where your capital is at risk and shelter it in the safe haven of cash. Cash also gives you firepower when more compelling investment opportunities arise after a market fall. Indeed, over the summer months, we have been increasing cash balances in portfolios at Hawksmoor to preserve some of the capital growth delivered by many shares based on our belief that markets are looking vulnerable (see my previous article). It is, however, important to manage your cash levels – excess cash is financial folly. Now, before I continue, I should point out that I am not advocating that you invest all your cash in the market or spend it. Here comes the wealth warning: you should always keep cash for a rainy day; the standard mantra is at least three to six months’ outgoings and possibly more if you are particularly cautious. Nonetheless, in today’s investment environment, cash is a wasting asset and you can certainly have too much of a good thing – indeed, it is the only asset guaranteed to lose you money! You may be puzzled by this statement and I will use this article as an opportunity to explain. The Moneyfacts website (www.moneyfacts.co.uk) gives a useful summary of the rates of interest currently available on cash savings products, such as current accounts. The best instant access account I could find is offering an interest rate of just 1%. You may argue that this is better than nothing – but is it? When looking at investments it is important to think about the real return. Put simply, this is the return an investment gives you after allowing for the general level of price rises – in other words, the return after inflation. For example, if prices are rising by 2% per annum and your cash deposit is generating just 1%, in real terms you are losing 1%; your money in the bank is gradually losing its purchasing power. With time, your nest egg can be severely eroded by inflation. Many savers are currently faced with this unfortunate scenario and too much cash can be bad for your wealth. Inflation has been benign in recent years and in September 2016 was just 1%. However, some economists expect inflation to rise into 2017 as the weak pound means that imported goods become more expensive. No-one expects the hyperinflation of the 1970s but even at an inflation rate of 4% (as some are predicting for 2017), £100 is worth just £66 after 10 years. Cash savers could face a miserable combination in 2017 of continued low interest rates and higher inflation giving them a sizeable negative real return. Given the current lousy circumstances for savers, I cannot understand why anyone would want to open a cash Individual Savings Account (ISA) now. An ISA is a tax-efficient investment wrapper allowing you to shelter up to £15,240 in 2016-17 from the taxman, either in a cash ISA, a stocks and shares ISA or a combination of the two. Cash ISAs were once an effective method of getting tax-free interest in the days when interest rates were meaningful on such products. For a basic rate taxpayer, a cash ISA saved 20% tax on interest paid. However, since April 2016, the tax rules have changed so that savers have been able to earn up to £1,000 interest without paying tax (£500 for higher rate taxpayers), regardless of whether it is in an ISA or not. According to Moneyfacts, the best cash ISA rate is currently 1.2% – you would have to deposit a cool £83,000 for it to be more tax advantageous to receive interest in this cash ISA. In summary, with poor real returns it may be time to review your cash savings if you have surplus cash, especially any long-running cash ISAs. If you can both stomach and afford the risks, it may be better to transfer your existing ISAs to a stocks and shares ISA for a better longer term real return in different assets. I will explore the tax advantages of such ISAs in my next article. Source: Bank of England – average interest rate on cash ISAs (including bonuses)

Whether you are looking to book your children on a workshop or full day’s holiday club, a workshop for yourself, a group of friends or work colleagues, or booking us to organise a craft party for you or your children.

MJS Clearance & Deliveries Specialist & Sensitive House Clearance
A sensitive and discrete approach to bereavement clearances. We know this is a testing time for families which can sometimes lead to emotional decisions that they may regret afterwards. MJS will take the pressure away from the process of clearing a property with an initial free consultation so that we can understand your requirements and determine which clearance plan best suits your needs. For example we will, if you wish, sell valuable items on your behalf offering cash back once sold.
Deliveries & Moves I deliver single or multiple items within the local area, nationally and in Western Europe. Also we can help with Flat, Student, Small house moves or just a few items. Why not try a budget move? For just ÂŁ20 per hour, which is cheaper than hiring a van, I supply the van, driver, straps, blankets, moving trollies and you load the van.

Finger on the Pulse By Councillor Andrew Govier As I said at this time last year I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that it is time to write for the Christmas edition of The Edge, this year seems to have flown by! In the last edition I highlighted the campaign to get the restoration of a regular bus from Wellington to Musgrove Park Hospital. Unfortunately, as I write this, despite the determined efforts of the campaigners and the Town Council, it seems unlikely this will happen. The council arranged a meeting with Somerset County Council and First bus to press for action to be taken. Although the meeting highlighted a number of alternative means of getting to the hospital from the town by public transport, it was clear that there were no plans to reinstate the route. The County Council had no money to subsidise the route and without such a subsidy First would not change their existing timetable. The congestion in the Town Centre continues to be a major problem. Despite assurances from the County Council that the changes to the Longforth junction would be implemented this autumn, we are still waiting for a definite start date. There was a suggestion that this work could take place within the next month but I felt that this would be the worst time of the year to discourage people from shopping in the town. I sincerely hope that the scheme will be installed within the first months of 2017. There is better news on the link road that will help to remove many of the HGVs from the town centre. The requisite number of properties have been built at Longforth Farm for the developers to provide the road link to the Relyon factory. I have organised a meeting with the management at the factory and local council officers to discuss how the scheme can be implemented to the benefit of all local residents. I am increasingly concerned about the situation that is developing in the NHS, both locally and nationally. Many residents tell me that they are finding it very difficult to get an appointment to see their GP. I was at a meeting last week when it was reported that we are short of over 110 GPs across Somerset and practices were finding it very difficult to recruit new staff. At the same meeting it was reported that Musgrove Park Hospital is stopping the treatment of serious skin conditions for new patients. This means that local residents will now face much longer trips, many to surrounding counties, to receive their treatment. It is vital that these shortcomings are addressed immediately as the NHS is vital to us all. National and local government must find ways to address these problems immediately. It was only a few years ago that the NHS in Somerset was rated as one of the best services in the country and I fear this could be changing. On a more positive note TDBC will again be offering free parking on all the Saturdays in December and we hope that this will encourage people to do as much Christmas shopping in the town as possible. There are many great shops, old and new, in the town and the Christmas period is vital to them. As December approaches, we look forward to celebrating the birth of Jesus with various events in the town. The churches throughout the town will be organising many services and looking to provide help and support to the vulnerable. I am very pleased that this year there will be a Christmas lunch organised by local Christians for those who would otherwise be on their own on Christmas Day. Anyone interested in attending should contact Isabel Ward on 01823 667456 asap. Thank you to the organisers and all other people who will be working hard to look after our community over the holiday period. I hope and pray that you and your family a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful 2017. If you would like to raise any issues with me about matters contained in the article or other concerns then please feel free to ring me on 667589 or email me on ajgovier@somerset.gov.uk .

What to do with your winter waste by Nick Cater
Nick Cater is Senior Communications Officer at Somerset Waste Partnership, which manages waste and recycling services on behalf of all local authorities in Somerset. With extra recycling and rubbish, the risk of severe weather delaying waste trucks, collections one day later during the post-Christmas fortnight and no garden waste services for two weeks, it is vital not to overload festive pick-ups. Apart from all that stuff sent to landfill in rubbish bins – a £12 million load on your council tax bill when more than half of it could be recycled – the biggest Christmas problem is the “internet avalanche” of cardboard that disrupts collections by forcing trucks to stop work to unload card when space remains for everything else. Our crews and trucks cannot collect very big pieces or large loads of cardboard, so if put out, they will be left. To avoid piles of wet cardboard outside your home, the top tip is to flatten all boxes, tear or cut up large sheets, and put out no more than the equivalent of two recycling boxes on each collection. Card and any other excess refuse and recycling can, if you have space, be stored to add some each week or, if you have time and transport, taken with all other “dry” recycling – everything but food – and all your rubbish to five-day Wellington Poole recycling site or seven-day Taunton Priorswood. If you need a little help or inspiration to waste less, reuse more and improve recycling, there is plenty of easy advice available. Check the “more you can do” pages on the Somerset Waste Partnership (SWP) website, see the printed SWP service guide, or contact Taunton Deane Borough Council’s customer services on 01823 356346 or enquiries@ tauntondeane.gov.uk. Remember that even at Christmas, all rubbish bins lids must be closed with nothing extra outside. For those on black sack collections, the limit is four each time. If you are taking the smart option of a quick trip to the recycling site with the extra card, plus the bottles and cans from Christmas parties and much more, get organised before you go. Sort materials in advance, ask site staff for advice – and take it – to be sure you use the right skip, and ensure you stay safe. With the weather forecasters already talking about Arctic vortexes, it would be wise to be prepared for icy conditions, high winds and rain or even snow. Severe weather can disrupt kerbside collections and recycling sites. Efforts will be made to maintain services, of course, if judged safe. But if snow or ice prevents collections, crews will make a return pick-up as soon as possible. Residents should put out missed containers by 7am for up to four calendar days for recycling, and up to seven calendar days for rubbish. If there is still no collection, take containers back in and put them out by 7am on the next usual collection day. And please assist vulnerable neighbours. Usual timetables apply to recycling sites over Christmas, with Wellington Poole open Monday 8am-7pm; Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday 8am-4pm; and Sunday 8am-1pm (closed Thursday and Friday), while Taunton Priorswood is
72
For information on The Edge Directory ring 01823 429220 or visit www.theedgedirectory.co.uk
open seven days a week 8am to 4pm. As usual, all sites will be closed on Sunday 25 December Christmas Day, Monday 26 December Boxing Day, and Sunday 1 January New Year’s Day. If you have no free permit yet for your van, pick-up or trailer, check all the details and apply on the SWP website. Please remember that permit holders can only use weekend sites 1pm-4pm on Saturdays, not Sundays or 8am-1pm Saturdays. This year’s Christmas kerbside collections are simple to remember with no change before Christmas, then collections from Monday 26 December to Friday 30 December one day later, including Monday pick-ups on Bank Holiday Tuesday 27 December and Friday pickups on Saturday 31 December. Similarly, collections from Monday 2 January to Friday 6 January will be one day later, including Friday pick-ups on Saturday 7 January. All collections of all materials resume from Monday 9 January on their usual days. To have your seasonal greenery composted, take your “naked and natural” – i.e. undecorated and real – Christmas trees of under six feet to add to the garden waste skip at any recycling site. Garden waste subscribers can put them out beside their bin or sacks on their first usual collection day from 9 January. As a very last resort you can send your tree to decay for decades in costly, wasteful and polluting landfill. Place it next to your refuse bin on your first usual collection day between 9 and 20 January. Check out ideas to waste less, recycle more and save money at www.somersetwaste.gov.uk, which is where you can sign up for the free monthly e-newsletter Sorted! with its useful service updates, recycling advice, tips on reducing waste, and permit news.

A busy year for the Edge if you want to grow your customer base read on:What a busy year the Edge Publications team have had . We have been looking at all aspects of the business to try and improve the products we offer . Our main aim is to provide local businesses with as much support to advertise their business as possible and help them to grow their customer base in an affordable manner. To help small local businesses grow their customer base they need to consider all forms of advertising but this can be expensive. We have therefore worked hard over the summer to put together excellent affordable multi advertising packages for local companies and sole traders:
Advertising in print: We believe and so do our hundreds of long standing
customers that The Wellington Edge and the annual Wellington Town Guide provide all your local print advertising in magazines that are packed with local interest so are kept by the phone throughout the year. The Edge and Town Guide can also be read online on our website www.edgepublications.co.uk or at www.issuu.com/theedgedirectory But we have also gone into reciprocal arrangements with the huge West Country advertising booklet “Local Pages” see Page 40 for those who want to advertise across West Somerset or further afield.
Advertising online: We realise that online advertising is extremely important
and the best local online business directory is Around Wellington. In future customers of the Wellington Edge and Town Guide can receive 15% off advertising in Around Wellington. Ring Penny or Richard for a special voucher code to claim your discount.
Have you got a website? We have also teamed up with Marmalade Design to
provide stunning websites for established online businesses and those who haven’t got a clue but know if they want to grow their business then they must have an online presence and must make use of the huge potential market that can be found through social media for businesses. With an Edge Publication special voucher code you can receive a further 15% off Marmalade Designs already low prices.
Editor, Accounts & General Print & Design If that wasn’t enough we have also started our own print and dogsbody design section. This is something we have always provided for our customers but Richard Coupe are now in a position to roll it out on a professional basis. 01823 429220 / 07725 027349 The next few pages will provide more details but if you want to know just give us info@edgepublications.co.uk a call on 01823 429220 or:78email@theedgedirectory.co.uk For information on The Edge Directory ring 01823 429220 or visit www.theedgedirectory.co.uk
