EDITORS LETTER

HELLO NE LOVERS, Another birthday, Sweet sixteen and never been kissed! Sweet Sixteen - so magic - so fleeting, Do not turn around too fast, my darling `tis only a meeting A meeting that`s not meant to last. .

Around here we think that 16 is a pretty magical number and we couldn’t let it pass without doing something pretty special, So our 16th marks the launch/ rebirth of www.nelove.co.uk. Its means a lot to us as you can imagine, so again we have drawn our friends close and collaborated with some of the North Easts finest. Check out the music section, let us know what you think and get in touch if there’s stuff you would like to add.

From a personal point of view of course I am very proud, but I have said it before and I will say it again! We couldn’t do it without you, so special thanks to Libby from Newcastle College for the helping hands, I still want that giant cocktail you promised me.

Then there’s our, now not so secret admirer, who takes the trouble to text me not just to agree with me about the late great David Bowie (how could he not) but just to say how much he loves the NE Love and to keep up the good work, Its people like you (hope you’re reading this) that make it all worthwhile l LOVE

YEY WE ARE 16 HENCE ‘SWEET SIXTEEN AND NEVER BEEN KISSED’. SO WE ASKED OUR CONTRIBUTORS, WHEN AND WHERE THEY HAD THEIR FIRST PROPER KISS? (NO YOUR MUM DOESN’T COUNT) l
