| | | Country and Border Life Magazine If you're in and around Wales and the borders, pop down to your local newsagents and get a copy of April's Country and Border Life magazine...the frontcover photograph was taken by Oy. http://www.borderpublishing.com/coun...ife/cblp2.html
As anyone who has seen Oy's pics will know, he has taken lots of stunning images and it's not at all surprising that his images are on the magazine stands. However, what you probably don't know, is that as part of his payment the magazine offered a 1/4 page advert, and he very generously donated it to Wild About Britain.
I was going to see if I could get a copy of the magazine tonight, but I can't wait, so I've got about an hour to see if I can find a newsagent in Cheshire that has got one.

| | | Re: Country and Border Life Magazine I couldn't find a copy locally, too far over on the other side of Cheshire I guess, but I've got a copy of the magazine coming tomorrow.
In the meantime, here's the link to a thread by Boddie that includes a pic of the ad. WAB Promotion |
