elcome to the latest edition of Stone and Eccleshall Life magazine.
Now well into 2014, we have successfully made it through another cold
and miserable January and can now just about dare to look ahead to
the first hits of spring.
The nights are certainly showing signs of getting fractionally lighter as well
as the months ahead holding some special dates to celebrate, its fair to say
things are starting to look up.
Check out our special features on Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day,
helping with gift ideas, tasty recipes to try your hand at, as well as some original
takes on how to show the special people in your life how much you care.
Also in this edition we catch up with the Eccleshall baker whose business is
cooking up a storm as well as two brave women from Stone based AMG Nursing
and Care Services who are now sporting bald heads all in the name of charity.
We have all our usual contributors offering their professional help and
advice on a range of issues as well as a wonderful wedding feature for all of
those newly engaged couples out there who are embarking on the exciting feat
of planning their big day.
Don’t forget to let us know if you have recently tied the knot like Caroline
and Nick Perrin have done. See all the highlights in this edition from their
beautifully exotic wedding held in Dubai last year.
And if DIY is your thing this spring you definitely won’t want to miss our
fantastic competition with a chance to win a pair of tickets to this years National
Homebuilding and Renovating Show at the NEC, but remember you have to be
in it to win it so get those entries sent in.
So for now happy reading from myself
and all the team here at Stone and
Eccleshall Life.
