    many local people and former pupils ofthis delightful local school, established

    back in 1879.

    With the clocks going forward lastweekend we have to accept that theyear is really rolling along.

    So were you April fooled on themorning of the 1st?Yes, I was, with Lis telling me thatone of my brothers had emailed meto say that he was coming to stayfor a couple of weeks. A case ofhook, line and sinker.

    Going to London for the weekendto visit my sister in law in hospital,was very exhausting indeed.

    Maybe I am simply getting too oldto drive to central London and backin two days but we were pleasantlysurprised by how much cheaper itis to eat out in London than it is inNorfolk, I guess it is due to all thecompetition in such a large city.Driving through London and pastBig Ben, just as it was chiming12 noon and then all along theRiver on such a sunny daywas very enjoyable.

    Whenever I go and cover an event

    for the Crab Tales, I ask myselfwhat I am going write about andhow honest I will have to be.

    Be assured that visiting NorthreppsPrimary School was a walk over asit really is a good and healthy localschool and such a great example ofkeeping open small local schools.

    I remember attending a discussionmeeting about the idea of closinga very small scool in Lincolnshire,when I was a member of the localLincolnshire County Council.

    With a roll of some 22 kids at theschool it was a case of closing itdown without any way of the rollnumbers increasing in the future.There were many unhappy parentsat the meeting voicing their wishes.

    The school was closed in the end,despite the views of the parentsand many of the former pupils.

    The Northrepps Primary School,I hope, will remain open for many

    years with the numbers of parentsselecting this school despite livingin Cromer, increasing year on year.

    Enjoy YourCrab Tales

    Dear Philip,I very much enjoyed Mick Peters article aboutpirate radio and Radio Caroline in particular.

    The pirates were a source of great joy to my youngears at a time when the BBC compensated forrestrictions on airplay of pop records by playinglive versions of the latest hits by dire studioorchestras whose members had no graspwhatsoever of pop music.

    The pirates played the real thing and theirreverent attitude of the d.j.s, combinedwith their genuine love of the music,were an absolute delight and anessential part of daily life.

    How ironic then that in the same edition ofCrab Talesthere should appear an articlein praise of Tony Benn, the very man who,as Postmaster General, brought about the

    Dear Philip,I always look forward reading the online issuesof the Crab Tales(unless I am down in Norfolkto pick up copy ! )

    Although I like to read about local news etc,the article about pirate radio/Radio Carolineby Micky rokkk Peters was a brilliant andinformative read.

    I look forward to reading a follow up aboutthe early days of Radio 1.

    Yours Mark

    Dear Philip,I have just returned from a walk on the beachwith my dog and am extremely dismayed

    by the attitude of fellow dog walkers.Unfortunately for us we came across the mostrude and ignorant older gentleman that I thinkI have ever had the misfortune to meet whilststaying in Norfolk.

    My dog always has a ball with her and when shehad dropped it another dog who was boundingaround picked it up. At rst we were not awareof who the dog belonged to as there was no-onein control of it.

    It turns out it belonged to an older man who waswalking in the opposite direction, I approachedhim and had to raise my voice to get his attention,and asked him to get our ball back from his dog.

    His reply was that if we could get it back then we

    could have it back. I tried to explain that the ballwas an expensive one and we needed it back.

    Dear Editor,Sheringham & Cromer Lions are appealing forhelp on behalf of the victims of the devastatingooding that hit Walcott, Bacton & Happisbughin December 2013.

    One house was completely lost in Happisbugh,at least 100 homes & 12 businesses in Walcottand Bacton were badly affected by ood damageand the high winds that battered our coast atthis time. Flood water surged one and a halfmile in land.

    The amount of work that still needs to be doneis huge. There have been a few homes repairedbut of those that have been damaged the house-holder will not be able to return home before

    Christmas this year.

    Dear Editor,How to cut your motoring expensesin Cromer......

    Simple really!

    Just dont bother about road tax, MOT, orinsurance, declare it as SORN, and then

    park it on a road in Cromer!There you can leave the car to the elements anddegrade the tyres for over a year so they are at,and youll never have to worry about any authorityprosecuting you or making any valid attempt tohave the vehicle removed!

    The car is on a public road yet declared SORN,however the DVLA say its not their problembecause this now apparently falls under NNDC,and NNDC say it is also not their problem, andthe matter should be referred to the police.Yet the police say this falls under theNNDC and DVLA.

    Oh, but dont worry, rest assured NNDC haveworded another strongly worded letter to theowner and this will hopefully sort it out!

    Whoopee! I can now lay in bed at night knowingthat this whole matter will be resolved within amatter of days (not a year of making calls on this),and soon I will be able to come home from ahard days work, and maybe not have to resortto paying the NNDC car park charges as I, forone, do not want to have my car which is legalin every way parked illegally, because you can

    Dear Philip,In Market Street North Walsham one will comeacross the Elite Taxi Ofce; Every other week,or so, displayed in the window on A4 sizepaper will be a saying or proverb.

    The following two are well worth taking noteof (I think).

    1.Never look down on anybody unless youre

    helping them up2. Always be yourself because the people thatmatter dont mind, and the ones thatmind dont matter

    I especially like the second one.

    Dear Editor,North Norfolk Speakers Club recently held anInternational Speech and Evaluation Contestin North Walsham.

    Carolyn Williams was the worthy winner ofthe International Speech Award, with animpressive speech entitled The ThreeBears and Goldilocks.

    or contact Gillian tel. 01692 650 250

    Guests and new members are alwayswarmly welcomed.

    This man continued walking and we followed totry to encourage the dog to give it back to no avail.I also tried to ask the man where he lived so thatI could perhaps fetch it when he returned homewith the dog. To this he completely ignored meand said to my partner I cant be doing withpeople like you.

    My point is that if you cannot control your dogthen you should not let it run unleashed. I havelost count of times Ive had to talk to other dogowners when their dogs take our ball, most arevery apologetic and return it to us. I just wantto be able to walk my dog in peace withoutbeing bothered by other uncontrolled dogs.

    The said gentleman was around 65-70 with abeard and a yellow/orange anorak. His dogwas a large black cross breed.

    If he would like to do the decent thing and returnthe stolen item as my little dog is lost without itthen it can be returned to Kiln Cliffs caravan sitefor the attention of myself. This would be verymuch appreciated although I dont think wellbe seeing it again.

    Kind regards

    What To Do This

    Summer?I could stay at home &paint the garden fenceor go and visit Albania?

    About 30 yrs ago my wife and I went to Corfu onholiday, from where you could see in the distancethe mysterious country of Albania which waslocked away from greater Europe until 1991.

    Of course just biking to & from Albania wouldbe much too simple. So how about whizzing overto Cape Roca, the most westerly point on theEuropean mainland a couple of klicks outsidethe Portuguese capital of Lisbon, then trundlethrough; Spain, France, Monaco & Italy to getto Albania by ferry, through Greece into Turkeyto get to the most easterly point in Europe, aboutturn then Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungry, Austria,Germany, Belgium, France and through thetunnel and 188 miles later Ill be home.

    5500 miles, 15 countries in 21 days, 2 ferriesand a tunnel, seems straight forward enoughwhile trying to raise some money for a

    worthy charity.Web site, bike prep, some training ridesand a few promotional events beforeleaving should keep me busy up todeparture day on Wednesday 21stMay, ferry already booked.

    Along with these former pupils andparents of the very well behaved kids,I very much enjoyed coffee and cakesserved by the existing pupils.

    Sadly the village of Northrepps, otherthan a church and a public house, hasno other facilities, such as a localshop for the villagers.

    All the preparations were done by thepupils of Oak Class, who have veryhappy times at the school.

    Not only were they happy to share storiesof their school life but had also preparedsome delicious cookies.

    Some of those attending this delightfulhistoric event,were third generationformer pupils, parents, and their

    grand parents.

    Undersong- NewAudio Trail in Overstrand

    Keith Skipper, local broadcaster and writerof all things Norfolk ofcially launched theUndersongAudio Trail in Overstrand onSaturday 29th March.

    The ceremony took place at the OverstrandInformation Point, on the corner of theHigh Street and Cliff Road, Overstrand.

    The Audio Trail is the brainchild of local artistand director of the Belfry Arts Centre, NoraGaston who has over the years encountereda host of local characters whom she felt wereworthy of recording in order to keep theirstories, songs, poems and music alive.

    Working in conjunction with artist DuncanMcAfee who recorded the voices & soundsabout this interesting area of North Norfolk,they have created a unique, artistic narrativethat will preserve the avour of Overstrand& the stories of the mythical black dog, therelentless sea, the tale of the shrieking pits,contraband & local shing in a way thatwillfascinate all those who listen.

    The Audio Trail consists of three listening postslocated at the Belfry Arts Centre, the InformationPoint and at the Ronnie Cork Memorial on thecliff top in Overtrand. The Belfry Arts CentreU-turn post is a wind-up post while the other

    two are solar powered.The accompanying booklet and CD availablefrom the Belry Arts Centre is a colourful and

    informative, fun publication thatadds colour and image to theAudio Trail.

    Nora Gaston said:

    I am delighted with the project,I am sure that everyone will nd

    it both fun and fascinating.

    Overstrand has hundreds of holidayvisitors and dozens of school parties

    and this can only add to theirexperience of the village.

    The project has been funded by the

    Heritage Lottery Fund, Nth NorfolkDistrict Council & Norfolk County

    Council and I would like to addto all those who have been

    involved with the project thatwe are extremely grateful

    for their support.

    Dear Editor,A massive thank you to everyone who helpedout with our rst practical conservation dayonthe River Mun Nature Reserve recently.

    We had an enjoyable and productive morningoutside in the sun, cutting and burning a largestand of rhododendrons which means that oneof the ponds is now receiving sunlight for therst time in many years!

    Its great to see visible progress in such a shorttime. Well be monitoring the pH of the pondsas they should now begin to return to normal,creating a perfect home for all sorts of wildlife.

    Above is a before and after shot to show howmuch progress was made.

    The next practical session will be on Saturday

    12th April (9am to 12.30pm).During this session we will be planting nativeunderstory bushes, such as holly & blackthorn.

    These will create a windbreak and also provideexcellent habitat for a variety of birds, mammals& insects. We have 500 to plant so need as manyvolunteers along as possible. Please bring glovesand a trowel (if you have them, well have afew spare for those who dont).

    In other news, the pupils at Northrepps PrimarySchool have been working hard to create 30 nestboxes for small birds in the reserve. Once lidshave been put on, they will be put up aroundthe reserve and will hopefully attract somenew residents for this years season.

    Please tell anyone you know who would like

    to get involved in this exciting project and ifyou have any questions, please dont hesitateto contact me.

    Best wishes,

    Dear Philip,When my wife asked me what I wanted for my65th birthday, I didn`t have a clue.She mentioned that I was always talking aboutdoing a skydive, but had never organised it.She said she would pay for it, as it was nowor never, age and time are creeping up.

    Ok, I said, but if I am going to do it then I mayas well raise some money for charity.

    So it is going ahead on Sunday May 18th.

    My 65th birthday is on Friday May 16th,and the charity I have nominated is theEast Anglian Air Ambulance.

    I may need them sooner than later, all moniesraised will go to EAAA as my wife is payingfor the skydive ( I wonder why!).

    I have placed sponsor forms at West Runtonbutchers & the Morely club in Sheringham.

    Many thanks

    Dear Philip,After a meal out with my daughter andher partner on Mothers Day, we had aride through pretty villages.

    We came across a narrow road and for2 miles there were daffodils on eitherside of the banks.

    We had never seen such a lovely sight.

    We have had spectacular snowdropsand next it will be bluebells and thenthe lovely Rhododendrons.

    This is such a lovely county for peaceand beauty, after all the noise & bustleof city life and work.

    I am 91 and of course I am able to enjoyour lovely country. Many people fromabroad would love to see what we havegot in Great Britain.

    It is always nice to read the letters andyour articles in the Crab Tales.

    Yours Sincerely

    Hi Lis & Philip,On Sunday 31st March, Christine and Iwent over to Honing to see the mile ofdaffodils along the road past the church.They are certainly worth seeing.

    These two photos (Above)only show a verysmall stretch of the road that they border.

    As you will see, tractor trips were running alongthe road taking visitors to see the show.

    Dear Philip,Having read the article in issue 033 of the CrabTalesconcerning The Ship That Changed Our

    Lives, well for methat certainly was the case.

    At the time of the launch of pirate radio I wasthirteen so I cannot really remember the rstCaroline but can fondly remember its sistership Caroline South coupled with otherRadio Stations around at that time.

    Radio London & Radio 270 I also remember and

    Radio Luxembourg, which I listened to on mylittle portable transistor radio under my pillowat night, much to the disgust of my parents.

    As I grew older I eventually got hooked toCaroline South with Dave Lee Travis ( thehairy corn ake ) & his infamous AmericanTop 100 broadcast on a Saturday afternoon.

    But as time went by a friend and I regularlytuned in to Radio London, broadcasting offFrinton where we both listened to the fullbroadcast of The Beatles Sargent PepperAlbum of which the station somehowgot hold of.

    Looking back on the detail of what Micky wrote it was fascinating to read how Pirate Radio wasoperated in the broadcasting of the new music to

    our nations airwaves, where sadly this was nowcoming to an end.

    As Micky said about the closure during 1967,when, even though I deeply admired him as anM.P. Anthony Wedgwood (Tony ) Benn and itwas sad to see him pass away, but at that timeI could not forgive him for shutting down thisvaluable network & taking away our enjoymentof listening to something that was freshand new instead of the dire B.B.C.

    Finally concerning the early days of Radio 1 inits launch in 1967 by Tony Blackburn.

    It did its best to try and soften the blow of losingour cherished Free Radio but sadly this was notthe same until now, when commercial radio

    emerged where for me personally to this dayI insist that this is still a replica of the PirateRadio Stations we enjoyed fty years ago

    Strange isnt it.

    Weekly MarketsNNDC is reducing costs to traders to try toensure that its traditional markets continueto play an important part in the economiesof market towns.

    The weekly markets in Sheringham, Stalham &Cromer have seen a decline in the number oftraders. In an attempt to help and encourageregular traders the Council has decided toimplement a number of changes:

    regular traders rents reduced by an average

    of 10% reduced rent for charity stalls - 5 per pitch,charities able to book up to 12 places p.a.

    reduced rates for new starters for8 consecutive weeks

    rentable gazebos for new starters & charities increased advertising for all three markets toboost visitor numbers

    Traders will now be expected to remove their ownwaste rather than rely on a council collection.Rhodri Oliver, NNDC Deputy Leader said :Everyone loves to wander around a traditionalmarket, whether they live locally or are on holiday.Traders have been having a tough time in recentyears so we want to do all we can to encouragemore regular traders, which in turn willencourage more regular shoppers.

    Stalham market has been particularly hit by adecline in the number of regular traders. In thiscase, with the support of Stalham Town Council,

    NNDC has decided to concentrate its efforts onrevitalising the market over the summer & nolonger to run it as an all-year-round market.

    Stalham market will therefore run from Aprilto September in 2014, with the single regulartrader being offered a ve month concessionlicence if no increase in other traders isachieved by May.

    The Shaping OfOur CoastThe landscape of the Norfolk Coast that we seetoday is a product of the interaction between thephysical & human inuences that have shapedit over the centuries.

    The underlying geology and physical processesof erosion & deposition have inuenced not onlylandform, soils & vegetation communities, butalso the human activities that are dependentupon or affected by them.

    Human activities have, in turn, changed thenatural vegetation to suit a variety of needsand introduced man-made elements into thelandscape such as managed farmland, eldboundaries, roads and settlements.

    The inuence of humans on the landscape is thecombination of human activity, relief, soil andgeology that give its distinctive character.

    The earliest evidence for human populations inthe area dates to about half a million years ago.

    Flint axeheads, tools & artefacts have been foundat a number of sites in the area and would havebeen used by small groups of hunters/gatherersexploiting a wide range of resources.

    About 100,000 to 10,000 years ago, the ice sheetcame as far south as the north Norfolk coast andthe area was subjected to periglacial conditions,consequently, the period to about 18,000 yearsago is poorly represented in the records.

    The sea level was very low and much of the NorthSea was a wide open plain and sites used by the

    Neaderthals and/or humans (Homo sapiens) maybe located off-shore.

    About 18,000 yrs ago the ice began to recede, theclimate warmed and by around 10,000 yrs agoclimatic conditions were similar to ours today.

    Humans returned to the area, leaving behindint artefacts including long blades, whichhave been recovered from a Late Glacialand Early Mesolithic site at Titchwell.

    About 9,000 yrs ago the long blade site at Titchwellhad been abandoned. One of the richest knownMesolithic sites in Norfolk has been found onthe Cromer Ridge at Kelling Heath.

    By the Neolithic period, about 4,000 - 2,000 BCthe landform of the Norfolk coast was broadlysimilar to that of today.

    Domesticated animals & plants were introducedduring this period, although the impact on thelandscape was probably limited and localised.

    Flint axeheads & objects have been found at sitesthroughout the area, but few settlement sites havebeen identied.

    The impact of farming on the landscape increasedduring the Bronze Age, about 2,000 - 700 BC,and was accompanied by the rst extensivewoodland clearances. In 2049 BC a timbercircle was constructed within the saltmarshat Holme-next-the-Sea.

    Burial mounds dating to the Bronze Age survivethroughout the area and many more ploughedout examples have been recorded.

    By the Iron Age, about 700 BC-AD 60, openagricultural landscapes were widespread.

    Field systems & farmsteads of possible Iron Agedate have been identied in a number of locations.Two forts with massive earthworks were built,one at Holkham very close to the coast, thesecond a few kilometres inland at Warham.

    Roman period, about AD 60 - 410, villages andfarmsteads have been discovered throughout thearea. Some were surrounded by regular grid-likeeld systems. The Peddars Way, one of Norfolksmain Roman routeways, originated as a militaryroad and terminates near Holme-next-the-Sea.

    The threat of raids from the continent during the3rd century led to the construction of forts alongthe east and south coasts of England, includingthe Branodunum site at Brancaster.

    A number of Early Saxon cemeteries have beenfound, including one on the cliff top at Mundesleyand one on a hillside at Thornham.

    The countryside around the Cromer Ridge washeavily settled by the Anglo-Saxons and muchof the complexity of the road system in this areais thought to have dated from that period.

    During the medieval period, about 1066 -1539much of the area was intensively farmed, witha wide range of arable and pastoral practices.

    The success of agriculture is represented in the

    numerous medieval churches, whilst the wealthof landowners is reected in religious houses,moats and Castle Rising Castle.

    Around the Cromer Ridge, early enclosure ofland, away from the previously settled areas,began during the 14th century.

    Towards the end of the medieval period, therewas a general decline in the rural population and

    as a result, some villages and hamlets shrunkin size or were deserted. Medieval settlementpatterns varied across the area, with nucleatedvillages in the west and dispersed hamlets andfarmsteads in the east.

    Many small shing and trading ports existed onthe coast during the medieval & post medievalabout 1540 -1900, periods.

    The Glaven ports (Blakeney, Cley next the Sea& Wiveton), Wells next the Sea, Weybourne,Brancaster Staithe, Burnham Overy Staithe& Ringstead, were perhaps the most important.This is suggested by the fact that in 1301Blakeney sent ships to help Edward Is warefforts & between the 14th & 16th centuriesit was one of only three Norfolk harbours,with Kings Lynn and Great Yarmouth,to have customs ofcials.

    Different ports were successful at different times,but all had declined by the early 20th century.

    From the late 17th century onwards, large land-owners established landscape parks around theirresidences. Many of them, including Holkham,Sheringham, Hunstanton and Felbrigg, surviveand are important inuences on the areaslandscape character.

    Emparkment led to the desertion of some villages.

    At Holkham, the site of the medieval village was

    abandoned for a new location on the edge of thepark. In addition to the piecemeal enclosures ofearlier centuries, further enclosure of land intogenerally large rectangular units occurredfollowing the Parliamentary EnclosureActs of the 18th and 19th centuries.

    During the late 17th, 18th and 19th centuries,large landowners on the north coast drainedsaltmarshes and constructed substantial seadefence banks.

    The rst banks at Holkham were built in late17th and early 18th centuries and enclosed anarea of marshes north of Holkham village.

    The enclosed area was increased when a bankwas built on the western edge of Wells nextthe Sea harbour in 1859.

    During the 18th and 19th centuries landownersalso played an important role in agriculturalimprovement and innovation.

    A number, including Thomas Coke, Earl ofLeicester, introduced new cropping regimes.

    Many rebuilt farm buildings and a large numberof the surviving historic farmhouses, barns andstables date to this period.

    The piecemeal or landowner-led enclosure ofsmall elds and common land into larger eldsbegan in the medieval period, but reached itsheight during the Parliamentary Enclosuresof the 18th and 19th centuries.

    During the 18th century the coast attracted

    people in search of leisure activities.Cromer and Mundesley developed as resortswhere members of fashionable society couldlodge and bathe.

    During the 19th century (New) Hunstanton,Wells next the Sea and Sheringham becameresorts. The development of the resorts wasdriven by the arrival of the railways in themid 19th century and saw the creation of

    piers, promenades and seaside architecture.

    World Wars 1 & 2 saw anti-invasion defencesconstructed in the area, such as defensive trenches,gun batteries, concrete pillboxes, barbed-wire,scaffolding and mine elds.

    Many of the pill-boxes survive, as do elements

    of the World War Two coastal batteries atBrancaster and Cley next the Sea.

    Well Worth Turning Up ToOn the last Friday of every month until theend of May this year.Lis and I enjoyed a great lunch of Soup &Pud as did over 30 other souls in the theMundesley Parish Hall, oppositethe Coronation Hall.

    Organised by the All Saints church this is agreat way to enjoy good company and quitepossibly more importantly, good food.

    All the food is prepared by friends of thechurch with a choice of four soups, one ofnumerous puddings, followed & roundedoff with a cup of tea or coffee, all for theprincey sum of 4.00.

    It is not costly and well worth the money as

    it is great fun and a good way to dine outduring the week, what more can you getfor 4? plus if you like to round it up toa ver it will include rafe tickets, totry your luck with, as well.

    I can highly recommend the Stilton soup andthe black forest gateau, while Lis enjoyedthe carrot & corander soup and the breadand butter pudding.

    As a mature student June did not pursue furtheracademic training because of costs and inaccess-ibility of education centres specialising in art.

    However, her time is now spent passionatelyproducing vibrant and fun-loving works.

    June has developed her own style usingwatercolour, acrylic and oil, althoughshe believes watercolour is the bestmedium for ower paintings.

    The colourful Jolly Ladies are predominatelyexecuted in watercolour or acrylics and reinforcethe principle that exuberant art helps improve theoverall sense of well-being for the observer.

    I hope sometimes they make the viewer smile.

    Colour and smiles are good for all of us.June Skinner said.

    The exhibition offers original framed water-colours at affordable prices from 30 to 70.

    I do odd jobs such as painting/DIY as well asgardening. I enjoy my work very much asthe job is well suited to my lifestyle as whenthe bad weather comes, my other passion issurng/paddleboarding!

    I have been chasing waves around the world formany years and on its day, Cromer can have asgood waves as anywhere.

    East Runton is one of the best waves on theNorfolk Coast but you have to be thickskinned to surf all the year round!

    Rain sometimes stops my work. I also spendone day a week as a support worker for theRowen organisation based in Norwich.Its very rewarding work as well,just in a different way!

    I am especially busy at the moment as my

    partner Anita and I have a bouncy babyboy, Oliver, just 12 weeks old.

    He keeps me on my toes.

    I am looking forward to taking Oliver onthe surfboard this summer, as it is nevertoo young to start.

    A Mechanic......

    ..........was removing a cylinder head from themotor of a BMW M3 when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop.

    The cardiologist was waiting for the servicemanager to come and take a look at his carwhen the mechanic shouted across the garage:

    "Hey Doc, want to take a look at this?"

    The cardiologist, a bit surprised walked over towhere the mechanic was working on the car.The mechanic straightened up, wiped hishands on a rag and asked:

    "So Doc, look at this engine.I opened its heart,took the valves out, repaired or replaced any-thing damaged, then put everything back in,and when I nished, it worked just like new.

    So how is that I make $24,000 a year andyou make $1.7M when you and I are doingbasically the same work?"

    The cardiologist paused, leaned over,and then whispered to the mechanic.....

    "Try doing it with the engine running."

    A form COP1A is completed containing factualinformation about P, ranging from their familycircumstances to their nancial position andsetting out who the Court might wish to appoint

    to act on behalf of P (known as Ps Deputy).There is also a formal application (form COP1)detailing the type of Court order required.

    The most common applications are in respect ofnancial matters for a Deputy to be appointed,that is someone to act on Ps behalf to collecttheir income, pensions, benets etc. and possiblydeal with their capital assets and to sell property,as well as paying bills, care fees etc.

    Other nancial applications can involve wishingto make gifts or Wills on behalf of P or dealingwith jointly held real property where a sale isanticipated. Less common are applications todeal with personal welfare issues such as beingable to make decisions about where someonelives or what treatment they can receive.

    All these forms go off to the Court in London,with an application fee of 400. It might be thatthe case will be passed on to a more local districtcourt for hearing, but my experience, locally, isthat matters are generally considered in London.

    After several weeks the Court issues the formalnotication of the application which has to beserved on P and on other named interested parties. These may be relatives, but include carers or otherswho might be considered as having an interest inPs affairs. This is to give those notied the opport-unity to object to the proceedings or to provideinformation which they think might be helpful.

    A hearing date will be set when the District Judgewill make an order, usually appointing the namedperson as Deputy & specifying the authority which

    they are being given to decision make on Ps behalf.

    Generally the order will not take effect until adelity insurance bond is in place, the annualpremium being paid out of Ps assets. This isto provide P with nancial protection shouldthe Deputy misappropriate Ps funds.

    Most applications do not require an appearancein Court unless there is anything controversialto be considered.

    Q: Is this costly?

    A:The whole process from application toappointment can take at least twenty weeks.

    It is also quite an expensive exercise, easily costing2,000 when taking into account the Doctorscerticate fee, Court fee and legal fees for the

    application. Applications other than straight-forward Deputyship appointments, can bemore expensive and take even longer.

    Q: How does it function?

    A:Once appointed, if dealing with Ps nances,the Deputy is expected to open a specic bankaccount in the names of themselves and P

    through which all transactions should go.A report is made to the Court on an annual basisdetailing anything of signicance which theDeputy has had to do on Ps behalf in the lastyear, how P has been involved in any decisionmaking, and providing a set of accounts showingwhat funds have been received on Ps behalfand how they have been spent.

    If the Deputy wants to do something for P whichis outside the authority of the Court Order andin respect of which P does not have the capacityto decision make for himself, it is always open tothe Deputy to make further applications to theCourt for an order to do what might be required.

    The application will need to be accompanied bya further 400 fee, relevant medical evidence andinformation about what is required and why.

    It is likely to be relevant in situations where giftsmight be considered (particularly for tax planning)or a will is needed to be made or updated.

    There is never any guarantee the Courtwill make the order requested.

    The philosophy behind the Mental Capacity Act2005 is to enable individuals to decision make forthemselves wherever possible using appropriateaids where necessary. It is only when they areunable to do so and there is no alternative mech-anism in place (such as a power of attorney)thatthe Court of Protection is there as a backup.

    As you can see the Court of Protection can belongwinded and expensive, so not really suitableif there are few assets and if things are neededto be done quickly (although there are emergencyprocedures). Having said that, it can protect thevulnerable from abusive family or carers andcan sometimes benet Ps estate by someone

    being appointed to manage their assets andclaim benets which have otherwise goneunclaimed.

    Q: Is it better to have a Power of Attorneyin place?

    A:Yes please see our previous article andspeak to Hayes + Storr.

    They both decide to test it by askinga question each.

    Barak goes rst.

    What will the USA be like in 100 years time?

    The machine whirrs & beeps and goes into actionand gives him a printout, he reads it out:

    "The country is in good hands under the new president,

    crime is non-existent. There is no conict.

    The economy is healthy. There are no worries

    David thinks: It's not bad this time machine,I'll have a bit of thatso he asks:

    What will England be like in 100 years time?

    The machine whirrs and beeps and goes into

    action, and he gets a printout.But he just stares at it.
