We are thrilled to say that this is an anniversary issue for us as we have now been online for a year! To mark the occasion we have a bumper issue packed with the usual interesting and informative articles, poetry and songs to keep you occupied for many hours.

As Editor, I would like to say a big thank you to all the contributors over the past year. You have given us a wonderful variety of interesting work and without you, especially our regulars, we would not have reached our first birthday.

Thanks also to the growing readership and to all who email us with your ideas and support.

We are always on the lookout for new additions to the magazine and we'd be happy to consider your offerings. Just send them along.

Keep an eye on the Shop as we will be adding to this between the issues. It has a few extra goodies in it already.
