Life's a Beach!

Here at Bugle Manor we are folding away the duvets and sweaters and hunting out the swimsuits and beachmats. Obviously, it’s not yet guaranteed ‘toasty-roasty’ weather and still a bit fresh in the evenings (if truth be known we actually prefer it this way), but we’ve already had a fair few great days out in glorious sunshine. On the left, you see our pretty picture of Plakias Bay. This is about as far as we managed to get with our promised feature on ‘Beaches in the region’. As you will discover, we also failed on the fashion front. But we hope that this month’s issue will still manage to entertain you.
 

Highlights

This month our team have been working tirelessly (along with eating, drinking, socialising, enjoying the garden and sunning themselves) in order to bring you an unparalleled May edition of the Bugle (modesty is of course our strong point). As a result of international demand, Stella McBarking returns with her cosmic predictions for May. There are ideas for day trips, and, as usual, news and views from around town and information about local community and society events. On a more serious note, our Spotlight focuses on the Battle of Crete, though clearly in a publication of this size we cannot begin to do justice to this event.

Next Month

We have several ideas for the June issue—which will be our six month anniversary (if that makes any sense). There will be a readership survey, and of course, the announcement of the winner of the ‘Most Unusual Place to Pay your Utility Bill Competition’ which was launched in January (get your entries in now!). We will almost certainly find space for something about the Summer Solstice, Stonehenge and would-be Druids. There will probably be a ‘Refreshing Salad’ Section, provided by our very own Mrs Beeton’s Groupies. As for the rest, put it this way, everything is up for grabs. Contributions from readers are always welcome, though, as ever, we prefer features to be no longer than 500 words. One thing that we should bring to your attention is that whilst our paper will continue to be a free publication our commercial advertising rates will go up for next month. You will find information about our new rates along with all our contact details on The Back Page. Happy reading!
