Abergavenny Focus November 2013

Dear Readers, I’m very excited to bring you this month’s issue of the Focus. You might notice that it’s a little weightier than usual, and you’d be quite right. Our usual 64 page magazine has increased to 72 pages this month – that’s an extra 8 pages of magazine for you to enjoy and keep […]

October 2013 Issue

Dear Readers, Welcome to the October issue of the Focus. Summer seems to have ended all too soon, and the nights are drawing in. Despite the autumnal turn in the weather, there is still plenty going on in and around Abergavenny for all of us to enjoy. You can see what’s happening by turning to […]

September 2013 Issue

Abergavenny Focus September 2013 cover

Dear Readers, There’s no doubt in my mind which is my favourite month of the year. September, of course! Why? Take one food obsessed magazine editor and combine with a local annual event and what do you get? A perfectly baked Abergavenny Food Festivaler, that’s what. It’s that time of year again when Abergavenny plays […]

August 2013 Issue

Dear Readers, For many of us, August is a time to kick back and relax. It’s the annual school summer holiday, which often cues family escapes to sunnier climes. For others, the summer sun and warmth associated with the month of August means that we move that bit slower through everyday life, enjoying laid back […]

July 2013 Issue

Dear Readers, Well here it is: Summer! Make the most of it while it lasts. The summer solstice has been and gone and the nights are getting darker. It’s a slippery slope towards winter, with fewer than 180 days before Christmas. I can’t work out the number of shopping days – that’s too much for […]

June 2013 Issue

AbergavennyFocus JUNE2013

Dear Readers, I’ve been emptying out my piggy bank and counting my pennies, to see if I’ve got enough money to afford a holiday this year. With the weather being so unpredictable and erratic, I feel as though I need to escape to somewhere warm. The trouble is, that in these tough economic times, it’s […]

MONEY MATTERS – Does it matter to you too?

The June issue of the Abergavenny Focus is currently in the process of being produced. In June’s magazine we will be featuring a section entitled ‘Money Matters.’ It’s a topical issue in these tough financial times, with most of us looking for good ways to save money and the best ways to use the limited […]

May 2013 Issue

Dear Readers,   Welcome to May’s issue of the Focus. In this month’s issue we have a special feature on Beautiful Homes, which got me thinking about the difference between a house and a home. Often a house becomes a home once you begin to fill it with your possessions and trinkets – those items […]

April 2013 Issue

Abergavenny Focus APRIL 2013

Dear Readers, I’m told that Spring has sprung. In fact, as I look out of the window here at Focus HQ I can, indeed, see little lambs in the fields. I’m sure they’d be gambolling – as lambs are supposed to do – but the poor things are knee deep (do lambs have knees?) in […]

March 2013 Issue

ergavenny Focus March 2013

Dear Readers, Now don’t get me wrong, I do like a walk, but under very specific conditions and guidelines. Often, on a sunny day, Pete will suggest going for a lovely stroll. I’ve fallen foul of these lovely ‘strolls’ on many previous occasions. If you’re a regular reader, you will have seen from the walks […]
