Happy 'slightly belated' New Year to you all.
January issue is out, if you don't receive a paper copy through your letterbox remember that copies are also available to view on our website www.thehambook.co.uk 🙂
Just a little reminder that copy deadline for the January issue is this Wednesday 16th. Drop us a line if you would like us to include anything.
If you're able to support our local businesses with your last minute gift and grocery shopping then I'm sure they would really appreciate it. It's been a tough year for many of them. ⭐🎄
Our December issue will be delivered a few days later this time due to lockdown restrictions but here's a sneaky peak at the front and back covers. Both Christmas tree sellers, both local !
Random photo time... this came out of our fruitbowl at breakfast, absolutely no idea how this banana art happened ?!?
Copy deadline for the December issue is this tomorrow 19th, we are going ahead with getting ready to print - let's hope COVID restrictions don't stop us from delivering this issue in early December.🙂
Digital copy of the November issue now on the website.
As things stand we are still hoping to publish a December issue, however it will arrive on your doorsteps a few days later than usual due to current restrictions. Will keep you posted. Take care 🙂🍂
