    Arent aiuds sag whi coms o ou popyad family? th liklihood,

    say, of you hous buig dow isxmly mo bu you woulddam of o isuig i. Af allyou would o wa o lav i ochac, would you?

    But when it comes to a making a Will inwhich you dispose of the property you havelovingly preserved over the years most of us(nearly 70%) dont bother. No, most preferto leave it to their family to sort it out in thebelief that they know what I want.

    Touching though such a belief may be it repre-sents a potentially high risk strategy that couldhave a devastating effect on those who are dear

    to you. In the absence of a Will what happensto the property that you leave (your estate) isgoverned by law in the form of the intestacyrules.

    Those rules may have dire consequences. Asurviving spouse may not inherit the whole ofthe deceaseds spouses estate. Children of aprevious marriage may inherit nothing at alland the surviving partner where there has beenno marriage or Civil Partnership could face

    major problems.The problem is those rules do not reect how

    society has changed with second (and some-times more) marriages, extended families andlongstanding relationships where the partieshave never married.

    You have the power to take away thoseproblems by getting a Will in place setting outvery clearly what is to happen to your estate

    when you die ensuring that those who are dearto you are provided for in accordance with yourwishes.

    Is i asy o mak a Will?Well it can be but many families have com-

    plications that need to be addressed thatis where a Solicitors expertise in the eld canhelp.

    Is i xpsiv?No, a Will can cost as little as 99* not a lot

    compared to the value of your estate!

    Should I us a Solicio?

    Absolutely YES. Beware the enticing advertsof companies who hold themselves out as willwriting experts offering Wills at bargain base-ment prices. You should only entrust the mak-ing of your Will to a suitably qualied person a badly drawn Will can sometimes be as muchof a problem as no Will at all.

    You have the ability to give your family peaceof mind. Make a Will. After all, you would notwant to leave it to chance, would you?

    For professional and specialist advice on thedrafting of your Will contact Paul Armstrongor Sally Tipping Quality Solicitors Oliver & Coon 01244 312306*until 31st March 2011

    DO YOU HAVE WILL POWER?Local solicitors Oliver & Co deal with all aspects of family law.

    Below are some of the most common questions relating to making a will but if you have any

    other questions about family law issues feel free to telephone or arrange a meeting with

    A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.

    HOW CAN LIGHt Be USeD tO PerOrM AtreAtMeNt?

    When a bright beam o light enters your skin, natural pig-ments in your body absorb the light and are converted into heat.Natural pigments such as melanin are ound in dark hair. A veryshort pulse o light (only a ew thousandths o a second) hits thetarget and causes it to heat up. Because the light is so careully

    controlled, only the target (in this case the root o the hair) isdamaged- the surrounding skin and the water in the skin are notharmed. Te light only penetrates within a ew millimetres o thesurace o the skin. Tereore, when the melanin in the treatmentarea is hit by the light, the root o the problem, so to speak,disappears.

    NWANTED

    CAN ALL UNWANteD eXCeSS HAIr Be treAteD?

    No. Unortunately, white hair, red hair and very blond hair do not

    contain enough melanin to absorb light.HOW MANY treAtMeNtS WILL I NeeD?

    Normally between 4 and 6 treatments. Hair grows in cycles. Tetime to treat a hair successully is when it is in its growing phase. Youknow when you pluck out an eyebrow hair and there is a black bulbor root? Tat hair is still in its growing phase. Te rst 3 treatmentsare perormed 4 weeks apart on the ace and 6 weeks apart on thebody. Ater 3 treatments there should be a considerable reduction andany remaining hair will be ner. Further treatments are carried out

    with longer periods between each treatment.For the past 6 years at Te Hough Green Clinic we have been success-ully treating hundreds o clients with our Ellipse IPL machine. Up-per lip treatments are 25 per session, bikini treatments are rom 85and underarms 60 per session. For urther details please telephone orgo to our website www.thehoughgreenclinic.co.uk. Alternatively makean appointment or a ree trial on a small patch o hair at the clinic.Consultations and skin tests are completely ree o charge.

    Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

    Songs from the shows

    ON Saturday 9th Aprl, Westmnster Park Resdents Assocaton have arranged a Songs

    from the Shows musical evening with Chester Operatic Society performing at Westminster

    Park Communty Centre.

    They will be singing before and after supper. The supper will be up to our usual standard

    as the menu will be similar to the Quiz Night meal. During the evening the committee will

    be making a presentation to local postman, Dave Dodd, who retired recently after covering

    most of Westmnster Park for the last nne years. Tckets are avalable from any commttee

    member at 10 each (cheap for a musical evening and a rst class meal), or telephone me

    on 01244 683461.

    Farewell, Sally

    WESTMiNSTER Park Residents Association bids a fond farewell to Miss Sally Melvin, who,

    after 28 years, s retrng from Belgrave School on 30th Aprl.

    Westminster Park weather

    IF you Google Chester weather you will nd the current weather for Chester but it isnt really

    what you think. The nearest station that reports to the Meteorological Ofce and so makes

    data available to the web is at Hawarden Bridge.

    However, there is a station in Whaddon Drive that pushes its data onto the web atchesterweather.org.uk

    It is updated every 10 seconds and includes temperature, rain or snow, cloud, wind,

    forecasts, road conditions, and even a camera view of the sky over Westminster Park.

    Police patrols pay dividends

    THE Neghbourhood Polcng team has focused on gettng patrols out at nght n the

    Westmnster Park area.

    The approach has proved successful and over what can be a busy period for crime,

    residents around Westminster Park have experienced very few crimes.

    PCSO Fox has also been out addressing speeding around Five Ashes Road / RowcliffeAvenue, which residents have claimed is a major issue for the local community. PCSO Fox

    and a colleague went out to the location January with the speed gun and conducted speed

    testng.

    During the testing session 73 vehicles were monitored and one vehicle was found to be

    going at an inappropriate speed. A warning letter has been sent out to the keeper of this

    vehcle.

    PCSO Fox is looking to carry out more speed testing sessions in Westminster Park.

    However, two people are required to undertake the sessions and he is looking for

    community volunteers to help with the speed testing.

    If you are willing to assist could you email PCSO Fox on [email protected] and he will contact you and arrange an appropriate time.

    ofcially opened to coincide

    with the start of the bowling andcroquet season.

    the Croquet Association. A kitchen was also donated by Deelux Kitchens.

    Councillor Richard Short, Executive Member for Culture and Recreation, said: I am

    very pleased for the Bowls and Croquet clubs; they have operated under very difcult

    condtons for some years and t s great that they have proper facltes at long last.

    The new pavilion is very much a local success story with the majority of funding

    comng from the Councls Greenspace team.The new facilities will provide much needed storage space, is fully accessible and will

    enable clubs to accommodate members as well as visiting teams.

    The pavilion has been relocated between the bowling greens and croquet lawn to

    provide improved viewing for spectators.
