Amble has secured government funding for a puffin festival.
Puffin festival! What's not to like?
Apart, that is, from Other People getting in the way of my puffins. (Puffins are mine. Obviously.)
The chairman of Amble Business Club is quoted as saying: "It's not just about retail, we want people to use local service providers, tradesmen and professional services as well."
In my previous place of employment, my job was to identify the product being advertised, and one rule of thumb was: If it says 'it's not just software', it's software. Likewise, if it's not just about retail, it's about retail. Also about other local businesses.
Still, puffin festival.
(Other festivals are also available, and not far down the coast.) |

I assumed you meant Puffin books & was faintly surprised when I clicked on the link :)
So...does this (not just)retailing mean that one will be able to purchase a puffin?
I am sure that many and various will be the likenesses of puffins available for purchases (and I use the word 'likeness' without wishing to suggest any actual resemblance).

That menu is so full of evil!
I was going to say: "Puffins shall be yours" until I saw the menu with Horse. I don´t know, even as a carnivore of lesser animals, I´d prefer a photo-safari, that way you can have your puffins and not eat them, right? | |
