 The 10th edition of the Little Red Rosette is back from the printers and currently being delivered to all residents and businesses in Harrowgate Hill at a slightly slower pace than normal due to poor weather conditions, but I do hope to have completed deliveries by Wednesday of this week.
If for some strange reason you have not received a copy by then, please let me know. Remember; you can always download previous editions from this website on the archive page and you’ll also find copies in the Premier and Coop shop’s and in the Harrowgate Workmen’s Club.
