Challenges, challenges…

 So, did you spot the deliberate errors in the last issue?  There were several – my poor old proof reader was overloaded: think Sergei the Meerkat and you get the general idea. So he missed them, I missed them and it seems that you missed them too!  Proof reader has been packed off to Siberia erm, Florida, for well deserved R and R, so hopefully, normal service will be resumed this month. 

 I’ve been asked about my green credentials this month and it seems I have them without even thinking about it.  I have a compost in my garden and another at the allotment; my kitchen waste goes to where it ought to. I’m a huge fan of recycling as far as books and charity shops are concerned and second hand furniture rocks!  My home is a shrine to Ebay vintage furniture auctions. We have a water butt in the garden too, although didn’t you just know that as soon as the hosepipe ban was put in force, it would rain for the rest of the year?! Hopefully, it will stop….soon.  I’ve already started looking for second hand arks on Ebay.

 Best still, contrary to common belief, this magazine is recycled (and I’m not just talking about the jokes!).  All of our magazines are FSC Certified and in case you wondered, the paper mills strip the paper off the plastic laminated cover and recycle that too.

See you next month!
