The Internet

Comment by Ted Janes in Hallmark May 1999 :-

On another subject, can I say how much I agree with the contents of Michael Hardy’s letter regarding Hallmark on the Internet. Personally, I have already had enough of the “w, w’s, dots and slashes etc., but we have to accept this is the modern form of communication, but surely not for a small village magazine that goes into every house in the Village, 80% of which like me have no idea of the system, or any likelihood of having the availability.

I trust that when the new Halli is up and running the practice of putting up notices on the notice boards or telegraph poles to invite us to such and such a function is not forgotten, and we do not have to “surf the Net” to find out what is on and order our tickets; if so I am afraid the dedication, commitment and support the Hall has received over the last 75 years will not be forthcoming.
