25th October 2018
I wasn't planning to send out a newsletter this week as we've been busy sorting out a problem here at Activity Village. But we've just added some last minute Halloween activities and as they might be just what you've been waiting for, I thought it was worth sending a quick message out.
Back to that problem I mentioned. Last week we lost just under 1600 pages of Member content from the website, all of which we had added during 2015. We have been working like crazy to reinstate them and have made really good progress already, but please forgive us if you find the odd gap here and there. We hope to have everything back by the end of the weekend.
