From 1st January 2012 onwards, to prepare the April 2012 issue and future issues. The present Editor will be on-hand to offer advice. Ideally the new Editor can work with the present Editor prior to 1st Jan, or even afterwards if required.
You will need: some time, some computer skills (especially in M/S Word and in using digital photos), some knowledge of ringing, reporting and writing skills, patience, tact, understanding, GSOH, the ability to encourage and then if necessary to cajole tactfully, an eye and a nose to winkle out news items, and a desire to make the FSG Newsletter the best

The deadline for the next issue of the FSG Newsletter (October 2011) is September 13th 2011
This Newsletter survives only because of the contributions you make to it. Without them it will fail. Articles can be submitted to the undersigned via email or to the postal addresses shown above, or to any committee member.
Please contribute something, however small (or large). You would be surprised the things people enjoy reading about. A few suggestions: an historical item; a funny story; a quarter peal report; poems; puzzles; tales, events past and to come; a ringing tour, even! Send them in. They will all be welcome - and photos, too, you'll notice.
. . . . and don't worry if you think your handwriting is unintelligible. It can normally be translated. Just send it in!
The Newsletter Editor: .
If sending articles by email, please use MS Word (not the dreaded Works*) format for written articles, JPG format for photos, and scanned items in PDF or JPG formats. (We have the facility to scan photo prints if you haven't.) Please let us know ownership of photos for acknowledgement where relevant. If you have a long article, you might consider breaking it into parts.
(* If you've only got Microsoft Works, then Save As
your article into Rich Text Format - ie, suffix .rtf - and send in this form.)
