Welcome to May edition of Buckden Rounda-
bout, your favourite local magazine!
The opening sentence is an important one be-
cause it reminds you all that this is YOUR mag-
azine. Whilst we have regular contributors and
articles, we are always looking for more ideas,
and it would be great if those ideas came from
you. So please get your thinking caps on and let
the team know what you want to see in future
issues of Buckden Roundabout. The best way
to contact us is via the editor email shown on
this page, but please feel free to ring Ian if you
prefer.
I also need to offer an apology to all our contrib-
utors, distributors and readers for the problems
we faced with delivery last month. Sadly, as a
result of both staff changes and illness, the
group that prints the magazine were not aware
of our regular monthly deadline. We, along with
the printers, have taken steps to ensure that this
should not happen again in the future.
Please remember to visit the website. There are
often articles there that we could not fit into the
print edition, as well as information that arrives
during the month. The address is:
