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.

In these austere times, tax give-aways are pretty hardto find. In an otherwise gloomy picture for Britainstaxpayers, your annual Individual Savings Accountallowance is one bright spot an increasingly valuabletax break and investment opportunity that should notbe overlooked.

With this in mind, it is surprising to learn that,according to research by Fidelity in October last year,two-thirds of eligible UK adults are not currentlymaking use of their ISA allowance and with it thechance to save free of any further liability to personal

income tax and completely free from capital gains tax.

Alongside pensions, ISAs are the most tax-efficientway to save and invest for the future and shouldbe a fundamental building block towards long-term financial wellbeing. Of course, the favourabletreatment of ISAs may not be maintained andis subject to changes in legislation, but recentgovernment announcements have hinted at itsrecognition of the important part ISAs can play insolving Britains savings crisis.

tAx relIef

The annual ISA limit for this tax year is 11,280 and6th April the allowance will increase to 11,520 alevel which is 60% higher than the 7,200 limit of justfive years ago.

This means a couple will be able to put away 23,040next tax year with no further tax to pay on dividendsor interest income and no capital gains tax liability atall. The important thing to remember about the taxreliefs that come with ISAs is that if you do not usethem, you lose them. If you miss the end of tax yeardeadline, thats it until next year.

Junior ISAs have now been with us since Autumn2011 and this is also an allowance not to beoverlooked. This limit will also increase in April from3,600 to 3,720 and is available for children underthe age of 16 to replace the now defunct Child TrustFunds.

INVestmeNt IsA

If you have not yet taken advantage of this allowanceit is possible to invest a total of 7,320 per childby investing either side of 6th April. As the cost ofa university education looks set to rise to around

27,000 for a three-year course, the Junior ISA willprovide parents and grandparents with a means to helpchildren avoid starting their adult working life with adebt the size of a small mortgage.

All of this highlights the importance of making themost of your current valuable tax break. ISAs offera tax-efficient and convenient gateway to the equitymarkets and also a useful short or medium termaccount for cash. From 6th April you can invest amaximum of 5,760 in a cash ISA half your annualallowance but in this environment of ultra-low

interest rates it is perhaps no surprise to learn that theaverage cash ISA rate is at its lowest level since theirintroduction in April 1999.

As a consequence of this and a greater degree ofconfidence on the part of investors, sales of InvestmentISAs are at their highest since 2001 (source:Investment Management Association).

You can invest your full annual allowance in anInvestment ISA and many investors, prepared to acceptmore risk than the cash alternative, are recognisingthat this may be the way to take better advantageof this tax break. You can also transfer existing cashISAs into an Investment ISA, although it is importantto remember that you cannot transfer them in theopposite direction.

We all like to think that we work hard for ourmoney and pay our taxes, but you dont owe the HMRevenue & Customs any more than you need to. Withstraightforward planning you can make sure you pay aslittle tax as you need; and making the most of your ISAallowance is a good place to start.

How to become aMoney MagnetLifestyle column with Hooles transformational

coach and money magnet Marie-Claire Carlyle

This week ive been elly luky und mney . i l ttedntng dwn evey penny tt me n well evey penny ttwent ut.

i t ndene? N, i dnt tnk .

You see, natural laws dictate that the more you focus on something , the more you seem to noticeit. For example, if someone points out that rich people are greedy and you focus on that ,the nexttime you see a rich person on the news you may easily nd evidence that yes , they are indeedgreedy.and the belief is strengthened. Alternatively , you may come across evidence that wealthypeople tend to be generous benefactors and you will soon start to notice evidence of how generousthey areand that belief is then reinforced. Your beliefs become like lters on your mind. Youcreate your own interpretation of reality as it appears to you, according to your own belief systems

Now if you want to attract more money, you need to focus on attracting money! ( not on howlittle money you have!)

This simple exercise involves you noting down how much money you attract each day. There

is no target and no expectation (although youll notice how you start to unconsciously expect toreceive money)

Dont worry if you cant yet see where the money is going to come from. Simply keep an openmind , follow your intuition and write down EVERY penny that you attract. For example, thisweek I found 6p in the lining of my tumble dryer. I also won 15 on the lottery. I reinvested 2and won a further 4 on the same day! I was inspired to clear out a drawer and I nd another40P in loose change. Oh and perhaps more signicantly, I attracted a number of new clients whotransferred monies to my account this week

As well as attracting actual monies, I also started to attract savings and offers of kindness. Myenergy had now shifted and I started to be open to receiving both money and miracles. My nailtechnician gifted me three free nail repairs. Another man in the car park gave me his parkingvoucher worth 4 and a friend spontaneously bought me some owers!

By Friday , even the sun can come out and life felt incredibly bountiful! Whatever yourcircumstances I invite you to start counting the pennies and to be delighted as you realise that youtoo are a Money Magnetyou just hadnt noticed until now!

Please do let me know how you get on. I can be reached [email protected] or on 01244314605

Spring into actionGardeninG by Janet HeatH

March wen bulb u te jyfulyellw dffdl mke te ppene.Smaller fowers are also worth growingu anemne blnd w yu wllee n wdlnd.

The wild owers are white but there are alsoblue and pink varieties. Another lovely littleowering bulb is Chionodoxa which has blueor pink owers and well worth growing in pots

or in the ground interspersed withsmaller daffodils. You will need

well drained soil in a sunnyposition for best results.

Shrubs start oweringwith Forsythia andthe owering currant,Ribes sanguineum.

Another earlyowering shrub is

the owering quince,Chaenomoles. Thesespiny shrubs do wellin mixed hedging ortrained against the wallof a house. Flowers comein many colours such as brightred, pink or cream and will

brighten up any garden inspring.

Jobs to do in thegarden include takingthe shears to winterowering heathers

just after owering.Give them a trim toremove dead owersand encourage newfoliage. I also cut off thedead heads from Hydrangeasmaking sure that I only cut off

the dead ower head and leave the

new buds below as they will give you owersthe coming year.

Start planting hardy vegetable seeds such asbroad beans, carrots, spinach and some saladslike rocket and hardy lettuce. If its wet and cold

just wait a couple of weeks for the soil to warmup. Indoors or in a greenhouse it is time to sow

brassicas such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts andalso leeks in pots ready to transplant later.

I prepare my pots for summerin March. I have a selection

of Hostas growing in potsand each year I remove

the larger plants fromthe pot and cut it upinto pieces with aspade then replantinto new compost.This keeps the

plants healthy andleaves me with spareplants to give to

friends or clients. Anyother perennial plants in

pots get a boost by eitherbeing re-potted into a slightly

larger pot or I remove thetop few centimetres

of soil and replacewith John Innes No

3 compost. Givethem all a feed

with a slow releasefertilizer. Thisgoes for the rest

of the garden too. Iuse pelleted chicken

manure and give allplants in the garden a

feed in March.

so f te wnte f 2013 been ne f te ldetweve d f wle, we vent een mu

nw n cete f qute few ye, n ft t tullynwng i wte t!

Much of this snow has been heavy, causing chaos anddisruption. I must admit to some feelings of excitement thatChester has seen some volumes of snow that in others yearsonly other parts of the UK usually get, but Im sure many of

you are pleased and relieved we dont get snow that often here

in Hoole!! One of the results of all this snow and ice is that we arebeing told that the gritting salt that is used on the roads to keepthem clear of snow and ice is running out! The results of this will

be mean very dangerous driving conditions.

Here in Cheshire we have one of the three main UK mines - theWinsford Rock Salt Mine so we should know how important saltis. Salt is a biological necessity of human life. The importanceof salt in our lives cannot be overstated. Without salt, our

bodies cannot perform some of the vital functions like regulating blood and body uidsand maintaining nerve signals. Salt deciency leads to muscular weakness, cramps andexhaustion. Severe salt deprivation can even prove fatal.

In ancient times, salt (or the lack of it) could drastically affect the health of entirepopulations. Trade in salt was very important, and salt was valuable enough to be used ascurrency in some areas. Such was the importance of salt that the words, war and peaceoriginate from the word for salt & bread in Ancient Hebrew and Arabic - The rst war thatmankind initiated was most probably over salt supplies.

The Bible list over 50 references to salt, many of them a positive reference; in fact it wasJesus who called his followers the salt of the earth. Salt avours and preserves and

can be an inuence in so many ways, as we can see on our roads and pavements at themoment. To run out of salt can have disastrous consequences. The 4 major pillars ofour society the Economy, the Family, Education and Law and Government all need to beavoured, persevered and inuenced by the salt of the earth, if we lose this saltinessthere can be terrible consequences here too as we have seen! Whether it here in Hoole oracross the country as a whole, the role of the church, and by this I mean the followers ofJesus, is to be the salt that preserves and avours our communities , so as salt we are toSeek Always Love and Truth.

Finally may I wish all the readers of the Hoole Roundabout a very Happy Easter and

invite you to consider coming along to one of the local Hoole churches to celebrate with usthis very special day, Easter Sunday, March 31st, youd be very welcome.
