News the local

Dear Readers Technology challenged Anna to her limits this month and with a system crash that took nearly two days to work out and recover from, we actually feel quite lucky to have an Oracle this month! In addition to that, it has been an extremely busy month for advertisers and we have some new, great businesses included.

We are limited on space for events as there is so much on but the good news is our new website will have a calendar and room for everyone. We will give you more information about that next month.

The website is almost there and will be online some time during April and we are just so excited! It will be so easy for you to use and find out extra information about our advertisers in just one place. Why go anywhere else to find a local business?

Until we ‘go live’ online copies of the latest editions can be found on our Facebook Page. www.facebook.com/thelocalOracle Anna & Jane
