New recruits

Sorry it has been a while since I posted, nice to know someone is reading though! According to the latest figures we have about 30,000 hits to the sites, which I think is pretty good going. They keep going up every month too, so that is reassuring.
I've been really busy in the office during January planning the next My First Day at School supplement, out February 14, and interviewing for a new reporter. The new person will replace Sean O'Hare who left just before Christmas. We have the final interviews on Monday so I am hoping to have a better idea by the end of the day as to where we stand. With any luck we should have our new reporter installed in either the Chalfont or Chesham office within the next few weeks, and I for one can't wait!
It was a nightmare missing the dead horses story, but I think my team did a fantastic job on the follow-up which we were luckily able to get on the websites. James Gray faces court on Monday for assaulting a police office, but as yet no charges have been made in relation to the RSPCA case. It seems unbelievable to us how long these things take, the RSPCA say it could be up to a year! We also have another case at the moment where three Chesham men are accused of shooting 29 mute swans. They were in court on Thursday but didn't enter any pleas, should be an interesting one to follow as well.

O´Hare should have been kept at all costs. Decent reporters are difficult to come by these days, particularly as journalism pays so badly. Let´s hope the Advertiser doesn´t drop in quality. Good luck
