Dear Neighbours, Welcome to the July edition of your Abbey-Link. The end of this month means the start of the Summer holidays for many. Lets just hope that this nice weather that we have been having continues into the Summer break. If you have a Summer holiday to get ready for, then you may want to take advantage of the beauty offers that Body Flair on page 26 and Therapy by Sam Baggott on page 27, have this month. If you are looking for fun filled family days out this Summer, then we have a couple of great events taking place. The Family Haven are celebrating their silver jubilee with a picnic in the park event at Highnam Court on 13th July, it sounds like a great day out whilst helping to raise money at the same time. Hatton Court are also holding a family fun day on 17th August and are raising money for The Milestone School, more details are on the front cover. Both are great causes. Remember our Sudoku competition on page 33, enter and you could be in with a chance to win 2 tickets to the new Cineworld at the Quays. Congratulations go to Mr K Woodhouse for winning last months competition, tickets are on their way to you. Please feel free to email me your Sudoku entries if you so wish: sarah@thelinkdirectories.co.uk Have a great month Sarah.
