June 2009
MPs and their expenses are a bit like the weather at present – a hot topic. The glorious
sunshine we had over the bank holiday certainly brought the crowds out and our local garden centres and shops seemed to benefit.
The forecast for this month, weatherwise, is good and with the numerous events on the calendar this month that can only be a good thing; take plenty of suncream wherever you go this month – I have it on good authority.
If you go to our website: www.phoneboxmag.co.uk you will be able to see a list of events that’s going on over the next few months. We have an area where you can input your copy to enable you to claim a date for a future event. This may help stop events clashing.
We will publish your event on the web so organisers can have a chance to avoid it, if it is at all possible.
Of course this is a free service to organisers of events and we look forward to receiving your copy. Ron Hall (Editor)
