Welcome to the April/May issue of the Western Park Gazette.

All our normal malarkey this month with a double whammy from Helen Knott. She has her own take on an emerging local school issue which has got parents in a tizzy  (for no reason as it turns out, but we'll look at that again next month)- then she secretly went and ate some cake!

Roger Blackmore  has the colourful tale of Canon Donaldson and there's our Gardening Guru, Tony Huxley on why you don't tie knots in daffodil leaves. He's also embarking on a charity bike ride and looking for sponsors, so dig deep.

In our Techie Thump feature, we have Richard Perry getting ever so annoyed over a particularly nasty creature that lives in cyberspace; no it's not him... well it might be.

And in the Police update we tell you when and where you can meet up with your local bobby.

We have a ridiculously frustrating Sudoku and a Brain Tazer or two on the inside back page as well as the return of the Gazette competition giving you the chance for you to win a meal for two at the new Gate Bistro on Braunstone Gate.

If you have some local news and information or you're holding an event, please share it with us.
