A vulnerable and lonely widow paid a builder over half a million pounds for work which should have cost £60,000, a jury was told.

Josephine Stubbings, 67, was befriended by John Jenkins who allegedly ‘lined his pockets’ with her savings for the next three and a half years.

Prosecutor Michael Speak said: “He relentlessly spent the money.”

On one occasion he took Mrs Stubbings, who drove a Nissan Micra, to a car dealership where he tried to persuade her to buy him a Jaguar.

He failed, but she did buy him a Peugeot. Mr Speak said: “The salesman thought it was very unusual for a lady of that age to be wanting a fast, powerful car.”

Mr Speak told the jury that Mrs Stubbings, of Berkhamsted, was a ‘vulnerable lady’.

He said: “She is a little eccentric with underlying mental health issues. She is a likeable lady. She is trusting in ways she should not be and is easily persuaded to do things in a way which none of you would do.

“Many loved ones had died and she was left alone in the world. She became isolated and began to suffer from acute anxiety.”

The prosecutor said Mr Jenkins, 70, from Poets Chase. Aylesbury, had ‘manipulated and exploited her’.

He worked as a general purpose builder, but by 2008 had either stopped working, had run out of work or was semi-retired. Mrs Stubbings had seen his ‘defunct’ advert in the Yellow Pages and contacted him to carry out a job at her home in Berkhamsted.

The court heard that Mr Jenkins persuaded her to have an ‘endless succession of work’ done on her house and mostly got others to do it for him.

Mr Speak said: “The defendant invented preposterous charges for this work, amounting to thousands and thousands of pounds. She trusted him and did not have a clear grasp of the situation. Sadly, she thought he was her friend – in reality he was anything but.”

The court heard Mrs Stubbings’ losses were revealed in November 2011 when she told a neighbour she had run out of money and asked to borrow some for food.

Mr Jenkins told police Mrs Stubbings’ house was in bad repair and he had got her out of her shell and cheered her up.

Their investigations showed she had paid him £530,000 – a surveyor found the work carried out amounted to £60,000 at most.

Giving video evidence via a pre-recorded interview with the police made in February 2012, Mrs Stubbings said: “Although he swindled me, I don’t bear him any animosity.”

She thought she had paid out about £150,000 to the builder, who did not give her any invoices or receipts.

Mrs Stubbings said she had studied English Literature at Durham University and had been a teacher before working as a post lady and as a home carer. She said she had anxiety and agoraphobia, but was now on medication.

Jenkins denies the theft of £532,695 between 1 April 2008 and 31 December 2011 and fraud by false representation between the same dates.

The Jenkins case continues.

Hemel Ski Race Club member Robert Poth has won a silver medal on the fourth day of the 2014 English Alpine Championships in Bormio.

Robert bagged his medal in the FIS slalom discipline and he said: “I’m really excited with my position today and with my continuous training I’m determined to achieve further success.”

Robert skis for Aktiv Ski Racing Academy with his favourite disciplines being slalom and giant slalom.

Team GB U18 alpine ski racer Robert Poth has enjoyed a successful start to his career as a junior athlete competing on the world FIS circuit.

This year, 16-year-old Robert stepped into a new challenging age category, competing against other racers aged 16 and above.

Robert is a Team GB U18 winter athlete with a British Olympic Association Silver Passport, but there is no training and race support from the British Ski and Snowboard Association for this squad.

He is training with Richard Breese and Stephen Edwards at the Aktiv Ski racing academy which has joined forces with Inspire on the European Development & Excellence Programme based in Italy.

He also receives strength and conditioning support from Performance Hertfordshire as a selected athlete on the Hertfordshire Talented Athlete Programme, but is looking for sponsors to help him along his pathway.

Those cheeky chappies at the Kings Langley Players know that it’s important to appeal to a broad audience – and you don’t get much broader than this!

To help promote next month’s production of evergreen Alan Bennett farce Habeas Corpus, they’ve created a series of saucy seaside postcards, featuring members of the company acting out some of the famous double entendre scenarios made famous by the immortal Donald McGill.

Despite the Latin title, Bennett’s comedy firmly concentrates on the physical, and all the ingredients of a classic farce are included.

The show will be on stage at Kings Langley Community Centre from Thursday, March 6 to Saturday, March 8.

The postcards may hark back to an earlier age, but the Players offer online booking at www.klp.org.uk to book exactly the seats you want, for the performance you want – you can also call 07906 695959.

Tributes have been paid to a talented skier who was killed when an avalanche struck in the Swiss Alps.

Businessman Chris Longbottom, who ran his own ski accommodation business, showed an entrepreneurial flair throughout his teenage years according to school pal Elliot Ronald.

“He was a very larger than life character. Very smart and entrepreneurial. He spoke four or five languages.

“Even when we were at school he used to go and collect golf balls that had got lost and then he would sell them to make money.

“He was always coming up with entrepreneurial little businesses.”

The 39-year-old, went to Hemel Hempstead School and it is understood that his parents – a Swiss mother and British father – still live locally in Box Lane.

He had been skiing off piste at the ski resort Col de Forclaz with a group of friends when an avalanche hit on Sunday, February 9.

His friends were able to dig themselves out of the snow but Chris’ body was found several days later by mountain rescue teams.

“He was an amazing skier, that was his real passion. I skied with him quite a few times,” said Elliot.

“He was a really fun guy.

“He would have great parties but he was also a smart and pretty focused chap. It is really sad.”

Chris became a professional golfer at the age of 18 and set up his first ski business at 22.

He was a keen cyclist and spent a year-and-a-half during his early 20s travelling the world on his bike riding through California, New Zealand, Australia, Asia and Thailand.

He was also a mountain runner and involved with trail run organisers Run the Alps.

In a profile under a ‘meet the team’ section of the running group’s website Chris said: “Everything I do, I do to the max.

“ I love skiing, love my running, love my mountains, love my freedom.”

Another Hemel Hempstead School pal Tim Osborn-Jones said: “He was a great athlete, daring, energetic and always led from the front.I could never keep up with him.

“Reading his Facebook page he touched so many people during his life and clearly had many fans.”

A six-year-old boy was killed when the car his mother was driving crashed into a tree, an inquest heard.

Jamie Sutton, who lived in Bovingdon with his family, suffered severe head injuries and died as a result of an accident Bucks Coroner’s Court heard on Wednesday.

The accident happened in Ley Hill Road, Chesham, on September 13 last year and Jamie died at the scene.

Police believe that his mother, for some reason, lost control of the black Ford KA she was driving.

At the time of the accident Jamie’s family released a statement through Thames Valley Police which said they were ‘struggling with this devastating and life changing situation’.

They described Jamie as a cheeky youngster and said: “Sleep tight my angel, we will love your forever.”

Students from Hemel Hempstead’s Longdean School involved in raising money for their World Challenge trip to Costa Rica chose instead to donate half the money to a local charity. 

The 11 Year 11 and Post-16 students at the school in Rumballs Road, Bennetts End, spent a number of Saturdays during the Christmas holidays packing carrier bags and taking them to shoppers’ cars.

They were aiming to raise £2,000 towards their World Challenge Trip. 

However, when they realised how much they had raised they decided to split the total 50-50 with the Teenage Cancer Trust, which works with teenagers suffering from the effects of cancer and their families.

When the money was split they were able to donate £896 to the charity and to also provide the same amount to their World Challenge totals. Geography teacher Martin Macdonald, who organises the World Challenge trip for the school, said: “It is fantastic to see Longdean students not only giving up their time to raise money but also to be thoughtful and selfless enough to realise the money raised could support those less fortunate than themselves.”

Caroline Mwaniki from the Teenage Cancer Trust attended a whole school assembly on Valentine’s Day to receive the cheque.

She said: “It is wonderful to see teenagers taking the time to raise money for their peers who may not have the same opportunities that they do.”

The Longdean students involved are: Shannen Avis, Chloe Behr, Molly Rice, Nicola Glass, Charnai Harkness, David Stredwick, Tamzin Klyen, James Mellish, Tom Dignum, Beth Jordan

Berkhamsted, Leverstock Green and Tring Athletic will be hoping that there is no more rain before the weekend as they look to get the stop-start season back up and running.

None of the three teams were in action last weekend after another spate of waterlogged pitches played havoc with the majority of SSML fixtures, although Tring picked up a very impressive midweek win over Ampthill Town.

Tring went into the clash as strong outsiders, but saw off the table toppers courtesy of goals from Taylor Collins (2), Lee Benning and Chris Vardy.

And Julian Robinson’s side will be looking to pick up where they left off when they welcome Holmer Green to the Grass Roots Stadium tomorrow.

Tring will be confident of picking up the three points, with only three places separating the sides in the league table.

Athletic occupy 13th place, six points behind 10th-placed Holmer but with three games in hand on their mid-table rivals.

Leverstock and Berkhamsted, meanwhile, will need to shake off any rustiness which may have been picked up as a result of a number of weeks without a game.

The Dacorum duo had been due to play each other last Saturday but the game was rained off, as was the subsequent rescheduled clash on Tuesday night.

That fixture will now be attempted to be played for the fourth time on Tuesday, April 8 – weather permitting.

In the meantime, SSML Premier Division title hopefuls Berkhamsted will travel to London Tigers tomorrow as they attempt to capitalise on Ampthill’s midweek blip.

Mick Vipond’s Comrades have been flying high all campaign and go into the game as strong favourites against a London Tigers side sitting in 17th place.

Elsewhere, Levy Green are due to travel to Hadley – although the hosts have not played a home fixture since December 14.

Levy currently sit in 19th position in the league table, while Hadley are 16th.

All of tomorrow’s fixtures get under way at 3pm, and further details can be found on the respective club websites.

A hospital trust has apologised to a patient who was twice admitted to hospital for bowel surgery but was sent home on both occasion without going under the knife.

It was not until the third time that Steven Tiffen was admitted to Watford General Hospital that he had an operation to remove part of his bowel.

But before surgeons took action, Steven, 32, went through weeks of abdomen pain and unexplained bleeding, which saw him repeatedly sent to hospital by his GP.

He said: “The way I was being treated was appalling. I didn’t know if I was coming or going.

Now West Herts Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs Hemel Hempstead, Watford and St Albans hospitals, has apologised for ‘any distress and anxiety’ that Steven experienced.

A trust spokesman said: “We have thoroughly investigated the issues Mr Tiffen has raised, including a full clinical review of the care he received. We are sorry for any delays he experienced; however, we believe that all clinical decisions were made appropriately.

“A detailed formal response has been sent to Mr Tiffen which we hope fully addresses his concerns.  This response details some of the actions we have put in place to make improvements to our service.”

When Steven, of Adeyfield, Hemel Hempstead, was first admitted to hospital after being told by surgeons that he would need an operation, he was told the following morning that surgery would not be necessary and that the problem should settle down by itself.

He spent a week in hospital before being discharged, despite still bleeding and, when Mr Tiffen tried to suggest that he should not be sent home, he was escorted by security to the discharge lounge.

After a couple of weeks at home, Steven, who is currently signed off sick and still suffering from health problems, returned to his GP with the same problem.

He was sent for emergency blood tests and told to return if it did not improve.

By the start of November he went back to his doctor, who prescribed some medication.

On January 2, Steven’s condition worsened so he returned to his GP, who contacted Watford hospital. He was told to attend hospital where experts said he needed surgery. The following day he was told by a consultant that he did not need surgery and was discharged on January 4.

Two days later Steven’s case got worse and he was admitted to hospital again. Several days later he had surgery, when part of his bowel was removed.

There is an exciting Calor League Southern Premier Division game in store tomorrow as Hemel Hempstead Town travel to Stourbridge for a clash of the league’s two in-form teams.

The table-topping Tudors are currently enjoying a three-game winning run, while fourth-placed Stourbridge have gone five games without a loss.

Hemel are now on 99 league goals this season, overtaking the club’s best ever tally of 98 goals scored in the 1999/2000 season during their Isthmian League era.*

Since Hemel suffered two consecutive defeats at the hands of Bideford and Frome, Dean Brennan’s side have gone on to score 18 goals in their last three league games, winning all three.

The stand-out result was a 6-1 win at Truro a fortnight ago, with skipper Jordan Parkes and striker Lewis Toomey scoring a hat-trick apiece.

The Tudors boast a good record against Stourbridge since the two sides first met in 2008 – in 10 league meetings Hemel have only lost once and that was four years ago.

Football statistics and predictions website betstatz.com believes that tomorrow’s match will be a close contest, and suggests that a draw could be on the cards.

“This game has the makings of a classic,” said betstatz Owner Nick Gelis. “On the one hand, Stourbridge have recently hit a run of great form and are currently the most in-form team in the Calor League, based on their last five games.

“Having scored 14 in the last three games it is also no surprise to see they have the seventh best current form across Europe.

“On the other hand, Hemel currently have the best away form in the Calor and still have the best attack rate across Europe, with 99 goals.

“Therefore the stats for both teams suggest it could be a tight game, with plenty of goals. This weekend’s prediction is; Draw, over 3.5 goals and a correct score of 1-1 at H/T.”

Hertfordshire Women have been crowned East Anglia Counties champions for the third year running.

Herts secured the title with a 7-0 win at Suffolk FA, and were presented with the Fred Welham Cup.

Two goals in the first 10 minutes put Herts in command, with Watford Ladies hot-shot Sarah Wiltshire grabbing them both after crosses by the dangerous Magda Mosengo.

Suffolk keeper Rox Small then produced a number of good saves to deny Wiltshire, but was powerless when the striker provided a cross that was converted by Mosengo.

It was 4-0 shortly after half-time when Cally Rowell netted, and Wiltshire completed her hat-trick soon afterwards, rounding Small and slotting home

Kate Knell made it 6-0 and Wiltshire volleyed in her fourth to complete the scoring.

The result means the ladies finish the season on seven points, having beaten Essex 2-1, and drawn 0-0 with Cambridgeshire.

The green light has been given for 26 new homes in Leverstock Green after a deal was struck over how much the Crown Estate will pay towards local infrastructure.

Dacorum Borough Council and the home builders have agreed what funds will be handed over under a section 106 planning arrangement.

Planning consent was originally given for the two, three and four bedroom homes in June by the council’s development control committee but nothing could go ahead until the funding deal was finalised. It relates to the amount of money the Crown Estate will pay towards local services such as school provision and public transport.

Previous objections from concerned neighbours were quelled after developers agreed to go back to the drawing board and change the site’s access point from rural Pancake Lane to an existing entrance off Westwick Row.

Thirty per cent of the development will be affordable housing.

A daughter is appealing for thieves to return a pendant containing the ashes of her father which was snatched when crooks struck at her mother’s home.

The precious heart-shaped pendant was taken when Janet Lane’s home in Hobbs Hill Road, Bennetts End, was ransacked yesterday.

Other jewellery and money was also snatched but daughter Laura Kingsley said they just want the irreplaceable necklace back, which was made in accordance with Allen Lane’s wishes after he lost his battle with lung cancer in January 2012. An eternity ring that Allen had bought for his wife of 32 years was also stolen.

Devastated Laura said: “He left my Mum money to grant his wishes of putting some of his ashes into a pendant so she always has a part of him, that was one of the reasons he also bought her the eternity ring too.

“They mean so much to all of us and play a big part in our lives as the pendant was the main connection we still had with our dad and it’s like he has been taken from us all over again.”

The pendant also has a picture of Allen on it and the words ‘To my devil in disguise love you always’ are engraved.

Anyone with information about the missing jewellery should contact police on the non-emergency number 101, quoting crime reference D1/14/1116.

Space movie GRAVITY (12: Warner) lost out to 12 Years A Slave in the coveted best film category, but still dominated the Bafta awards, winning six prizes.

The nerve-shredding tension of Speed meets the technical perfection of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey in this intimate sci-fi spectacular.

Sandra Bullock stars as Ryan Stone, a talented medical engineer making her first space-shuttle mission under the command of veteran astronaut Matt Kowalski (George Clooney).

As the team carry out a service on the Hubble Space Telescope, a planned missile strike on a defunct Russian satellite sends shards of dangerous debris hurtling towards them, instantly destroying the shuttle.

With limited oxygen supplies remaining, Stone and Kowalski find themselves trapped in the void, setting the clock ticking on an intense and exhilarating fight for survival.

The special effects are tremendous, while Bullock’s almost balletic performance imbues this film with a humanity and grace that beautifully complements director Alfonso Cuarón’s breathtaking vision.

> The only thing that THE HAUNTING OF CONNECTICUT: GHOSTS OF GEORGIA (15: Lionsgate)has in common with the original story is that it involves ghostly goings-on and is supposedly based on a true story.

The haunted house this time is an old mansion in the Georgian backwoods, which was once part of the “underground railway” that helped slaves from the Deep South escape to the north.

The house’s newest residents are a young family from the city, but with daughter Heidi possessing psychic abilities, it’s not long before otherworldly creatures are popping up all over the place.

Mum Lisa, who has similar powers to her daughter but has fought long and hard to suppress them, is sceptical at first yet reluctantly starts to accept something very bad must have happened at the property back in the 19th century.

A relentless pace is sustained throughout and the proceedings are punctuated with a constant stream of frights and shocks, which go a long way towards compensating for the predictable plotting and bland performances.

> On paper, CLOSED CIRCUIT (15: Universal) has the makings of a taut and clever thriller.

Barrister Martin Rose (Eric Bana) is appointed to defend the sole surviving suspect after a terrorist bomb in central London leaves many dead.

But when special advocate Claudia Simmons-Howe (Rebecca Hall) is appointed to review classified evidence that she legally can’t reveal to ex-lover Rose, the pair find both their careers and lives in jeopardy as they unravel a conspiracy that stretches to the country’s highest seats of power.

So much screen time is spent explaining the legal complexities of terrorist trials that the pace never gets into top gear.

The script is by Peaky Blinders writer Steven Knight, but the clunky dialogue has a tendency to make the two leads appear wooden and disconnected from the story, with only Jim Broadbent as a government bigwig with a hidden agenda making any real impression.

The number of potholes in the county reported to road fixers so far this year are down compared to the same period in 2013.

But highways contractor for Herts County Council - Ringway - expect all that to change once flood water has subsided

Divisional manager Matthew Kelley said: “Since the beginning of the year, the number of pothole related public enquiries received has reduced by 30 per cent compared to last year.

“Our current priority is focused on managing the flood water and fallen trees as a result of the extreme weather conditions in the past month.

“We are anticipating that there will be an increase in potholes and damage to the road once the water subsides due to the detrimental effects of the exceptional volume of standing water on the road surface.”

This part of the country spent the beginning of last year under a blanket of snow and the freezing conditions took a toll on the county’s roads with water running into cracks and then expanding when it froze.

The project is joint funded by NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group through the Healthy Communities Fund and Hertfordshire County Council and is supported by the Grovehill Medical Centre and Dacorum Borough Council.

Three men have been charged in connection with break-ins in Tring and Hemel Hempstead.

Elton Bierman, 37, of Aldbury Gardens, Tring, and James Bierman, 33, of Handscroft Road, Luton, were arrested on February 19.

Both men have been charged with burglary and handling stolen goods in relation to a burglary in New Road, Tring between Wednesday, February 12, and Saturday, February 15. A lawnmower, power tools and food were taken from a shed in the property’s back garden.

James Bierman pleaded guilty when he appeared at Hatfield Remand Court earlier today. He was released on bail and will appear at St Albans Crown Court on March 17.

Elton Bierman is still in police custody at this time.

Brian McDermott, 40 and of no fixed abode, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with burglary which occurred between Friday, February 7 and Saturday, February 8, in Lamsey Road, Hemel Hempstead.

The property’s rear door was forced open and several items including watches, an iPad and mobile phones were stolen.

McDermott was also charged with criminal damage to police equipment and a racially aggravated public order offence after insulting a police officer. He appeared at Hatfield Remand Court yesterday and was remanded into custody.

Chief Insp for Dacorum Glen Channer said: “Burglary is a crime which can be highly distressing to victims and we are working hard to tackle it, through proactive patrols, carrying out robust and thorough investigations, as well as highlighting crime prevention advice to residents.

“While these arrests have been made, I would still remind people of the importance of keeping their property secure.”

Police have advised homeowners to take extra care when it comes to securing their home by double-checking doors are locked and installing a burglar alarm.

Alive music event set up in November to showcase new artists in Aylesbury is proving such a success that it is now attracting acts from the surrounding counties.

New Music Monday made its debut at The Oak House – formerly Stars bar – in Market Square to give new and emerging acts the chance to spread their sound and has proved an immediate hit

Event organiser Carol Jenkins said: “I am astounded at just how popular New Music Monday has become with the music communities not just in Bucks but also Herts, Beds and Oxfordshire.

“The past few weeks have seen us showcase a number of really talented musicians playing anything from jazz to indie.

“I’m delighted that the night is putting Aylesbury firmly on the map as a hub of musical talent.”

On Monday acts from Tring and Hemel Hempstead are on the bill.

Rock punk band Silo 18 hail from Hemel and are making their Aylesbury debut after spending the past year gigging around the area and building up a fan base. They are currently recording an EP due to be released in the spring.

Also playing will be rock’n’roll covers band from Tring The Attention Seekers and a soul/blues band from Tring called L’il Bird, featuring talented young singer Katy Hood. Entry to New Music Monday is free and the music starts at 9pm.

The monthly Screaming Blue Murder comedy club session is heading down the tracks, and there’s a top line-up promised at the Old Town Hall in Hemel Hempstead on Friday, February 28.

The 9pm gig at the High Street venue features snooker player turned stand-up SeanMeo lining up the laughter and aiming to have the punters in his pocket.

His deadpan delivery as he dissects the dilemmas of everyday life have made him one of the most respected names on the comedy circuit.

Also on the bill is Tania Edwards, who scored a success at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with her one woman show The Art Of War, and is heading to Hemel Hempstead after a spot at the Leicester Comedy Festival.
