A belated Happy New Year to you all! Apologies for neglecting the Wye Local Blog, my time has been spent starting up a sister publication called the Local Beacon. In September 2009 issue 1 was launched, since then I have had many late nights, lots of horrid days cold calling and most weekends have been spent in the office! But I am not complaining, the total opposite in fact. The Local Beacon has proved to be a big hit in Brecon (or Aberhonddu as the Welsh speaking say!) area; new businesses are contacting me each month; advertisers are receiving a great response; and the readers love it! Thank you to everyone for their support, especially Co my husband. During this month, we will be making some changes to this site, details are to follow. Also in February the Badham family will be sharing some exciting news . . . watch this space! Lisa Marie x |
