LIFE
Autumn days are here...
Nothing says November like a good book, cake and getting ready for Christmas
Bamboo socks and watches are the way forward – they are sustainable, comfortable and available from your Thursday market. You can find out all about them in this months Q&A from Natural Wear UK (page 26).
Not only is 2024 the 80th anniversary of D-Day, but also another battle – Kohima in Northwest India. Stephen Abbott from the Royal British Legion tells us about two Oundle scholars who are associated with Kohima. We will remember them (page 9).
Oxfam books and music sometimes takes in some very rare donations – have you ever dreamt of finding a first edition amongst
their shelves? The staff, led by manager Hilary Faulkner, recall here their most memorable finds amongst the hundreds of donations they receive each week (page 19).
Who doesn’t enjoy a cup of tea and a piece of cake on a rainy November day? But who knew that adding lime zest to your pineapple upside down cake was such a game changer? (page 46)
