What a time of incredible change around us right now. Restaurants being open in a way we have never experienced before but with amazing food for our hungry tastebuds! Please remember that many businesses have had to change the way they work so your patience is always appreciated. The biggest change for September will be children and teachers going back to school. Good luck to them all in their new environment. Please do try and support our advertisers at this difficult time. Every advertiser has an entry on our website and many have testimonials from their happy customers. You might like to send in a testimonial too? Just email it over and we will add to their page. A digital copy of each edition can be found on our website and social media pages so if you lose your copy of wish to share it with someone else then please just click on our website - www.thelocaloracle.co.uk. We also share additional information on our social media pages which can be found on the following links ...facebook.com/ thelocaloracle or Twitter.com/thelocaloracle. We look forward to hearing your feedback.
