Feb. 13th, 2013 01:09 pmAmble has secured government funding for a puffin festival.
Puffin festival! What's not to like?
Apart, that is, from Other People getting in the way of my puffins. (Puffins are mine. Obviously.)
The chairman of Amble Business Club is quoted as saying: "It's not just about retail, we want people to use local service providers, tradesmen and professional services as well."
In my previous place of employment, my job was to identify the product being advertised, and one rule of thumb was: If it says 'it's not just software', it's software. Likewise, if it's not just about retail, it's about retail. Also about other local businesses.
Still, puffin festival.
(Other festivals are also available, and not far down the coast.)
