A customer has asked to put up a description of their new book. Not to purchase, simply for your thoughts.
Dark story of Gaslighting, abuse, retribution,
and Hope. Based on real conversations with Willow a Hidden Person, and
Richard who removes the so called ‘Pillars-of-society' blocking Willow's pathway to the therapy she will need to escape and recover. He’s aware of the consequences. However, had turned a blind
eye and covered his ears to evil too often. It’s a risk he is going to take. Has no close family or friends for whose safety he’s concerned. His military service and work for the ‘Organisation’
add credibility to his account of the retribution he hands out.
Bella and Richard’s love story sprinkles some sunshine onto this dark tale. Bella is unaware, even when her husband disappears, of the retribution Richard is carrying out to stop Willows abusers.
However, is aware he works for ‘The Organisation,’ but not who they are, or what he is paid to do!
A pond with an established culture and a natural balance between plant and animal life will require less attention than one where there isn’t, but even nature ponds need maintenance to ensure they remain healthy. Here are a few tips to help maintain your pond through the seasons.
Small wildlife friendly ponds need cleaning about every five years, large ponds about every 10 years.
Natural ponds and man-made ponds designed and built to attract and sustain wildlife should not be cleaned to often and never completely cleaned out at all. It can take years to develop a balanced ecosystem and just a day to destroy it. It's a fine balance between cleaning a pond and ruining it.
Equipment you will need to clean a pond.

Pond cleaning tips
Things to do in autumn and winter.
Looking after garden ponds in winter.
It is important to keep your pond from freezing over. If the surface remains frozen for more than a few days it causes a build-up of gases and the oxygen levels to drop, killing your pond-life and fish. A frozen pond will also cut of the supply of drinking water for birds and other wildlife.
if you have a pump leave it on, the water movement will help keep an area free of ice and circulate the water helping keep up oxygen levels.
If you don't have a pump running keep a hole open in the ice by pouring on boiling water from a kettle, or if the ice isn't too thick poke holes in the ice with a broom handle or sharp stick, another way is to use one of the small floating pond-heating units.
