Cloudy2Clear Windows Service With A Smile!
Its been a crazyfew months forCloudy2ClearWindows. Thecompany whichspecialises in repairingwindows which aresteamed up, brokenor damaged byreplacing the panes
not the frames hasgrown rapidly ashomeowners take
advantage of theirservices.
Managing DirectorAlan Ball feels that itsall about service. Ourproduct is simple. Ifyour double glazingis misted up we canreplace the glass ata fraction of the costof a new window, inany type of frame,and with a new 5 yearguarantee. But its not
just about saving people
money, although thatobviously helps. Manytradespeople havestruggled since last yearand I honestly feel thatduring the good times aminority perhaps didntfocus on customercare as much as theyshould have done. Wemake sure we turn upwhen we say we will,do the job the customer
requires and leavetheir house as clean asa whistle. I often getcomments back fromcustomers on how theyreally didnt expect thatsort of service which,in a way, is very sad forthe service industry as awhole.
Cloudy2Clear servicethe Chester, Wirral &North Wales areas andAlan is fnding that his
approach is a major is
a major factor in hissuccess. The truth isthat its not just the
personal satisfactionthat I get from doinga good job but also itmakes good businesssense.I get a huge amount ofbusiness from friendsand family of people
Ive done work for,which just goes to showhow much a little bit ofeffort is appreciated.

From the age f 30 the tell-tale
signs f ageing begin t shw n the
skin in the form of ine lines and
winkles. The effects f patying,
late nights, smoking, alcohol and
excessive sun exposure hardly
showed in our skin in our teens and
20s.
By our 30s our skin is less forgiving after
a night on the town and may be prone to
pigmentation, fatigue, and the irst visible
lines and wrinkles. 30 is an age where we are
hopefully settled in a career and maybe juggling
a career, home and children adding fatigue and
stress to our bodies which in turn shows on our
face. Skin can become thinner and iner, more
sensitive, lacking moisture and duller. This is
due to the slowing down of cell turnover. As the
cells are not being replaced as quickly as they
used to this build up can lead to dry skin. Loss of
collagen, due to smoking and sun damage, can be
responsible for the ine lines and wrinkles that
are appearing around the eye and mouth areas.
Frown and smile lines become more apparent
in our 30s. A reduction of natural moisturising
factors may have started at this age.
At 30 your skin may look great, but it is a
crucial time for skin and a few tweaks to your
normal routine will pay dividends in the future.
A good cleansing routine is essential with a
good quality cleanser. Do not use wipes! Wipes

are full of alcohol. Even the alcohol free ones seem
to contain alcohol! Alcohol makes the skin so dry
and sensitive. Wipes certainly do not perform an
eficient cleanse. The face should be cleansed
in the morning and before retiring to bed. Using
a gentle scrub twice a week will help to remove
the dead cells caused by the slowing down of the
cell turnover. A moisturiser should be applied
morning and evening to the face and neck. A
factor 15 sun protection should be applied every
morning and a higher factor must be applied
when exposed to strong sunlight to prevent any
further damage.
30 is the best time to start using an anti-ageing
eye cream as a preventative measure. It will work
wonders in reducing ine lines and wrinkles for
years to come.
At Hough Green Clinic we recommend
PRIORI(R) Advanced AHA skin care containing
key ingredient Lactic Acid which is clinically
proven to stimulate cell renewal. It stimulates
the skin to produce its own moisture from the
inside out in the form of Hyaluronic Acid, which
is the molecule produced by the skin for binding
and holding water. AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids)
help to dissolve the cellular cement that holds
dead cells together, thereby removing unwanted
pigment and rough skin so that the skin appears
smoother, radiant and youthful.
Our professional treatments include PRIORI(R)
Skin Renewal Peel. This is a rebalancing peel thatdoes not damage the skin, but slows down the
ageing process working naturally with the skin to
reduce ine lines, pigmentation, dehydration and
skin break outs.

Even the supermarket chains themselves seem
unaware how complex their supply chains are
and how far they stretch. As far away as Romaniahorses are making their way into our food chain
labelled as beef, via several stops for processing
on the way.
The supermarkets are now so large that there
are very few processors big enough to deal with
their volume. It is no surprise therefore, that
when one of these processors breaks the law
most of the supermarket chains are implicated.
Personally I have noticed in recent weeks a
lot of new faces in my shop. These are people
obviously concerned with what is happening in
the food industry and are seeking quality and
traceability from a local source. As a member of
EBLEX (English Beef and Lamb Executive) and
part of a audited, monitored system and supply
chain I am able to provide fully traceable local
food from farm to fork.
As a modern butcher we have moved with the
times and are aware of the demand for qual-
ity ready meals. We make all our ready meals
ourselves daily on our premises using fresh local
ingredients.
Kevin from Edens of Handbridge provides
me with fresh herbs, fruit and vegetables which
we use in our sausages, burgers and ready mealsnicely complimenting our local meat. Super-
markets are unable to do this and their food is
produced days in advance in factories (some-
times abroad) using masses of preservatives to
enhance shelf-life.
Local shops cannot beat the convenience of the
one stop shop but we can provide top quality,
great service and the personal touch ,not forget-
ting great value.
Local shops are the lifeblood of any community
and when they are lost there will be no alterna-
tive the next time a food scandal breaks. Please
use your local shops.

Summers coming, so why not try croquet?AFTER a long, wet summer and autumn last year and a dreary winter, everyone must be
looking forward to warmer days and longer evenings.
Nows the time to plan ahead. Why not try your hand at croquet? Perhaps you haveplayed garden croquet with family or friends and would like to learn more about the game.
Perhaps you have hung up your boots after playing a more strenuous sport and would
like to switch to a game that involves challenge and skill but does not require the strength
and stamina of more energetic activities. Perhaps the children
have left home and you nd you have more time for a new
outdoor leisure activity.
Perhaps you have just retired and would like to try something
new. With its handicapping system, croquet is a game that can
be played and enjoyed on equal terms by men and women of
all ages and abilities.Chester Croquet Club meets in Westminster Park. It is a
friendly and successful club with about a hundred members
and is always pleased to welcome new members of all standards from absolute
beginners to more experienced players.
The next beginners course will be held on Thursday evenings from 6.30 to 8.30pm for
six weeks from 2nd May to 6th June. The fee for the course is 30 but is free for new
members joining the club at a full subscription of 52. Coaching is also available for
people who have played before and would like to improve their skills.
No previous knowledge of the game is needed and all equipment will be provided by the
club. If you would like to enroll or would like more information, please contact the course
coach, Janet Davies, on 01244 350370.
THE children of St Marys Community Nursery School,
in Handbridge, have been celebrating Chinese New
Year - the Year of the Snake.
They found out how Chinese people around the
world celebrate this festival. Highlights have includeddecorating the school in the traditional colours of red
and gold, dressing up and playing in a Chinese house,
making a very big dragon that they used for dragon
dancing and eating Chinese food with chopsticks at a
banquet.
The children have heard many new Chinese stories
and rhymes but were very pleased to welcome
Treasure Trove Puppets back to the school. Puppeteer
Stephen Sharples told them the story of the Chinese
Willow Pattern Plate with his handmade puppets. Afterthe play the children had the opportunity to look at
some of the puppets and ask Stephen questions about
his puppets.
Stephens expains the
different parts of the story.
Chinese celebrations are childs play

THE governors of The Catholic
High School have approved the
conversion of the school to an
academy.
The decision comes afterconsultation with staff, parents,
partner schools and the Diocese
of Shrewsbury. It means the
school will become independent
of the local authority, but will
remain very much a Catholic
School and part of the family of
Diocesan schools.
Speaking after the governors
meeting Peter Devine, chair ofgovernors said: We have great
ambitions for the students at
our school, and great ambition
for the school itself. OFSTED
judged this school to be good,
with outstanding aspects to its
work. We want to move on now and make
sure that we are aiming for an Outstanding
judgment next time the inspectors call.
Becoming an academy is just part of thisprocess. At our meeting we also discussed
student achievement, the quality of teaching
in the school and the quality of leadership
and management here. Central to this is
the mission and ethos of our school as The
Catholic High School here in Chester. We are
renewing our commitment to working with our
partner primary schools and with our partner
parishes. Our school is and always will be an
inclusive Catholic school.
Headteacher John Murray added: Our staff
were concerned about what would happen to
them if we converted to an academy, and both
the governors and the Diocese have made it
very clear that their terms and conditions are
fully protected.
The meeting was attended by Alex Scott,
Director of Schools for the Diocese ofShrewsbury. He explained to the governors
that the school would now be part of a multi-
academy trust which was being set up to
benet the wider family of Catholic schools.
The conversion will take effect from Friday
1st March, and from that point the school
will be an academy, independent of the local
authority. The school will still be called The
Catholic High School, Chester and there will
be no changes to the admissions policy orto the provision for students with additional
needs.

Students thrive in 4x4 challengeTWO teams of Sixth Form students from theCatholic High School going by the names
of Torque Torque and Deva Centurions,
took part in the Jaguar Land Rover 4x4
In Schools Challenge at the JLR plant in
Halewood, Liverpool.
The students have worked studiously
since October last year on the project,
modifying a remote controlled car to specic
requirements, creating a portfolio of work,presentations, social media sites and
nding sponsors to fund the project. Jaguar
Land Rover provided a mentor from the company in the person of Niall Turner who
was available to give technical advice and support. In addition, students were given
additional support by local STEM ambassador, Roger Todd from the IET.
The competition was erce on the day and they were up against many other well-
established teams from in and around the
North of England. Our students presented
their work in various forms to different panels
of judges who scrutinised every aspect indetail. One of the biggest challenges of the
day was the track event in which the teams
completed an off-road course against the
clock.
The school was rewarded by winning The
Best Rookie Team, Best in Class and The
Best Track Performance awards. Having
taken the North West titles they are now
going through to the nal at the Big Bang Fair
at the Excel Arena in London on 14th March.

CH4 History
THE names and careers of
Isambard Kingdom Brunel,
George and Robert Stephenson
and Joseph Locke are steeped in the
industrial history of an emerging
Victorian age. Their engineering work
and multitude of constructions would
have signiicantly inluenced the lives of
hundreds of millions of people around
the world.
There is however, another lesser well
known character whose work with those
aforementioned had an even greater impact
on Victorian lives and his legacy continues
to this day, albeit in an understated manner.
His name is Thomas Brassey and he was
born near Aldford, six miles due southof Chester in November 1805. Thomass
parents, John and Elizabeth, went on to
have a further ive sons and one daughter
and it is said the Brassey family could trace
its ancestry as yeoman farmers back about
eight centuries, most of which was spent in
Cheshire.
Recent television programmes by Michael
Portillo and the historian Dan Snow havefeatured the works of famous railway
engineers but sadly overlooked the work
and achievements of Thomas Brassey!
In fact, mention was made in a television
programme of Sir Samuel Morton Peto
whose company Peto & Betts joined forces
with Thomas Brassey. The company of Peto,
Brassey & Betts built railways all over the
world, but Brasseys involvement remains
unmentioned!
From very modest beginnings being brought
up in a farming community and educated in
Chester, Thomas went on to become known
as the greatest railway builder in the world,
yet sadly this humble and unassuming man
rarely has mention in the greater scheme of
the era of the industrial revolution.
His achievements in the realm of civilengineering range from the building of a
simple road bridge over the River Birkett at
Saughall Massie, Wirral when he was 23, to
the construction of the Penkridge Viaduct
in Staordshire. By the end of his incredibly
busy life in 1870, he was responsible for
building about 8,500 miles of railway track
throughout the world.
Closer to home, Thomas Brassey builtChester Railway Station, which opened in
August 1848 and the railway line between
Crewe and Holyhead. When completed,
Chester Railway Station had the longest
platforms in the country. He not only built
hundreds of stations, bridges and railway
lines across the country, he also built docks
such as the Victoria Docks in London in
1852. The Docks at Barrow, Birkenhead
and Callao in Peru were also of his work,being constructed during the period 1850
to 1863. In 1861 he undertook to build a
twelve mile stretch of the London Sewer
and it became known as the Second
Wonder of the Industrial World. Cholera
epidemics were a major concern for health
at that time; the construction of this sewer
network certainly helped to change forever
the health and quality of life for Londoners.
The fact the sewer system he constructed is
7/29/2019 Overleigh Roundabout March 2013
43/48
Not chuffed at all The Chester connection
still in use today is testament
to his engineering ability.
His work wasnt just conined
to Great Britain; his irst
foreign project was a railway
line in France, between Paris
and Rouen in 1841. Further
major work followed with
contracts being secured in;
Argentina, Austria, Australia,
Canada, Denmark, India,
East Bengal, Italy, Belgium,
Bohemia, Holland, Hungary,
Prussia, Nepal, Norway,
Spain, Moldavia, Saxony,
Transylvania, Syria, Persia,
Russia, Canada and Crimea.
After his death in November
1870, the three sons of
Thomas Brassey created
a memorial to their father
and mother Maria in St
Erasmus Chapel in Chester
Cathedral. This took the form
of a backcloth to the altar
inscribed to their memory and
there is also a bust of theirfather to the north side of the
altar.
The Grosvenor Museum in Chester also has
a bust of Thomas Brassey and there are
plaques commemorating his work in Chester
Railway Station.
Thomas Brassey was buried in the
churchyard at Catsield, near Hastings in
Sussex. In his will, he bequeathed close on3,500,000 as it is said he had acquired more
self made wealth than any other person in
the country during the nineteenth century.
Perhaps because he was a modest man who
shunned public attention and accolades, his
legacy is little known and its sad even to this
day, his life and work receives scarce public
acknowledgement.
