Dear Readers
It looks like Spring is here and we may have escaped the sub zero temperatures that were promised so now is a great time to get back out into the garden and plan for the Summer. We have a few exciting new advertisers and plenty of businesses ready to help you around the home and garden. Why not give them a call today. If you have recomendations or have some testimonials for those that currently advertise then we would love to hear from you. Each edition can be found on our website along with more details of advertisers by category and we have a calendar with other events outside Sevenoaks if you would like to travel further afield. www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Anna & Jane Suite 23, 10 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU TEL
