It has been bleetering on the barony all day – a sure sign that the Spurtle is about to be distributed to pubs, clubs, shops, odd nooks, strange corners and all points in-between around Broughton. We hit the streets squelching on Friday 1 October.
The latest issue is the usual tartan purry of news, gossip, history, dates for your diary, arts, crafts, strong opinions and world events with a Broughton bent ... all squeezed into 4 pages of inventive typographical wholesomeness.
We're covering cuts, trams, cups, and education, ghosts, a machine-gunned sarcophagus, grocery, Dalmatians, and the local nautical practices no-one claims to remember. Pages 2–4 will carry other news.
Those too posh to plash can download Issue 187 shortly after 8:30am on Friday morning, and access additional material not available anywhere else. Traditional readers need not feel neglected: paper Spurtles fold into attractive and unusual souwesters.
