from the editor W riting this I can’t believe that our 12th issue is going to press and we are nearly a year old. The web site was two old year years old in June and that whizzed by unnoticed. But yes August will be our 12th issue. In the first year we have had some fantastic feedback and great comments about the articles. We have also started sending a copies of the magazine abroad where ex-Arlesey families like to keep up on what’s going on back here.
