Calendar of Care
October
1. Treat the snowboards with creosote or similar and repair any which have broken. Put them in place.
2. Check that all exposed water tanks, water pipes, heating pipes and oilfeed pipes are protected against severe frost.
3. Clear fallen leaves from gutters, downspouts and drains.
4. Cut the grass for the final time and service the lawn mower.
5. If you have central heating, consider turning it on.
6. When Daylight Saving Time finishes at the end of the month take the opportunity to check your turret clock. Maintenance should be undertaken by a qualified professional turret-clock maker following conservation principles. For more advice click here.
