August Issue - Corrections

Ooops - Sorry - we've made a couple of boo boos.

On Page 3 we put the incorrect Deadline Date for contributions to the September issue, the date should be:

WEDNESDAY 19th August. All the dates for future editions are now shown on the table on the right >>>>

On Page 10, the dates for the following were incorrect, they should be:

Saturday 29th
from noon - Beer Festival

Sunday 30th
am - United Church Service
pm - English Garden Party host

Monday 31st
pm - Flower & Produce Show 

Sorry about that, perhaps someone out there would like to take on a Proof Reader role for me?
Regards
Chas.
