WEB DISCLAIMER: A LARGE BUT BASIC SITE -we are a non-profit group of amateurs who produce a print magazine - we copy most of that print online, so that you can read some - not the lot! Do dip in to an online page, - or 2 - 3 .... Apr 2012 is 48 pages - to read it all, a printed copy is far easier!

NB website is later than print. Once the print magazine has been distributed, we start copying it online, so up to a month later than print magazine.

 

Critical suggestions for improving these webpages are positively welcome

  • We would like a more technically-minded / design-minded volunteer to take over this website
  • that's not very likely! … but critical suggestions for improving these pages are positively welcome
  • … but please bear in mind that we are unpaid non-technical volunteers with limited time and money.

So that we have enough time to print various publications, & put them online (and sing songs, tell stories, write the odd poem) ... please note we are not an email forwarding service, leaflet distributor, nor signed up for social networks. What we do is produce and distribute a PRINTED folk magazine.
