[The Local Gazette]

Hi Shillelagh,

Thank you so much for the BB5 Guide. It arrived this morning. That's really good of you.

It looks a little better than I thought it would actually but I still think we can dramatically improve on it. The first thing would be to have some colour there and the second would be to include a lot more local content amongst the ads.

As others have said though, perhaps the hardest part would be getting businesses to agree to advertise and pay for it. Me thinks that perhaps the best thing to do is for me to create a mock up and go and visit a few local businesses to see what they say.

In the meantime if there is anyone out there who has a local business, please could you let me know if you would be interested in advertising in such a publication. Again, I'm not touting for business - honest, just want to know what you all think.

Thanks again Shillelagh and if I can return the favour, please just let me know.

Matilda.
