Tower and Town, March 2018

Editorial: Mad As A March Hare

How often do we use well-known sayings such as the title for this month's edition without giving it a second thought? Have you ever stopped to wonder where such sayings originated? This one of course is obvious, you only have to look at the cover photo. However, in his article, Garry Pells gives us an insight into the provenance of a few more such sayings. We also continue with James Milsom's memories of growing up in Marlborough. Debby Guest of the White Horse bookshop has put together a fascinating review for us of some of the bookshop's latest titles, which if you're anything like me, will have you hot-footing it to the shop to have a closer browse. There is also a personal contribution - a behind the scenes look at a typical day for a LINK co-ordinator. Will you be tempted to join us? You will have noticed that instead of a running 'theme' this month, we have a mixed bag of topics. As well as our 'sensible' articles, we also have a whimsical message to dieters everywhere, a tasty recipe, and some thoughts on entertaining unexpected guests - something we can all relate to...and possibly recognize! And finally, a message from your pets!

So hopefully there will be something to interest and amuse everyone. I just hope this month's edition will be "up to scratch". Go and look that one up!
