The St Neots Citizen editor Tim C today apologised for lack of editorial control during the traditional late August slow relaunch.
“There have been some, shall we say, quality issues,” stated C this morning, “which I have resolved by throwing small stones at those responsible.
“Rest assured, your Citizen will be back to normal immediately, ready for the usual September uptick.”
Readers had complained about vulgar reporting, especially Benny T. Bean’s recent article on how to make spotted dick. “The problem with Grubby Pete,” said the editor, “is that he spills the contents of his brain directly onto the page. I’ll make sure I change any rude words to ‘kitten’ in the future, as this will probably make more sense anyway.”
