Online Newsletter

Edition No. 13/01                      January 2013

Introduction

Welcome to the first ever WPAG Online Newsletter. (Keep it – it might become collectable!)

Although we do want you to keep on looking at the website on a regular basis, to soak up all the interesting news, we do understand that your New Year Resolution might have wavered somewhat, and a regular ‘Digest’ could be useful.

‘Digest’?

We like the sound of that – so from now onwards we are going to call this online newsletter, the WPAG Monthly Digest…..You witnessed it – hIstory has just been made.

(We will print copies of this WPAG Monthly Digest for those members who are not online).

To cap the amount of time and effort that goes into the preparation of WPAG Monthly Digests, they will consist mainly of extracts from the previous month’s online Posts. In this way we hope to stand a better chance of producing a Newsletter each  month. To read the full text of any article you should follow the link provided to the main website. New articles or News will be published online in the first instance, in the current month’s category..

It should go without saying that we want your feedback, so that we have a better chance of producing something useful for the majority of members. Feedback on website content is simply done by typing text in the ‘Comment’ box on the respective website page and then clicking it.

Feedback on this WPAG Monthly Digest should preferably be by email to
