Dear Readers
At the start of every New Year, we think of friends and family, so it was with great sadness that I opened and read a letter from Betty Mullen in Portishead, Bristol. Betty was formerly Chairlady of the Portishead Machine Knitting Club and her letter was to tell me that Gloria Hughes had died. Gloria was known to MKM readers as Jamilla and we featured many of her Passap designs in the magazine. Gloria lived with her husband in Saudi for many years and during that time she developed her love of the Passap E6000. She came home to the UK for holidays, usually from November to January and again during the summer and was at a loss without her machine. She had no hesitation in buying another Passap to keep in England.
Dear Readers
The February issue will be sent out to subscribers this week and the magazine is officially on sale on Thursday 13th January.
I need to pass on an important message from Matt, who looks after our website and he writes:-
Hi there
This is Matt - I'm Anne's son and look after the technical side of the website for her.
We've had to make a small change to the registration process recently, as the site was quite literally inundated with false registration requests from spambots. The difference is that anyone registering will have to type in some characters that we show them in order to send the form. This does, however, mean that if you use AOL, please email us directly and we'll process your registration for you.
I hope you enjoy using the site, and if you have any problems, please email me and I'll be happy to help.
Thanks
Matt
