september issue of the renaissance news is out (well has been for almost a week now). features some fantastic panoramic photography by james of the harbour and new lighting at night. you can pick up a copy or get one posted to you by contacting the renaissance office: 01723 341346.

we’re currently working on the october issue with tom, a student at scarborough sixth form college, who is spending a few days with us as work experience. he’s writing a special centrespread aimed at the new university students who’ll arrive at the end of next month - our working title for it is ‘chilled scarborough’ - not a reference to the weather, but to those places sometimes off the beaten track that are great for collecting your thoughts and just chilling out. we’re also amusing him greatly with our collection of 1990’s britpop cd’s.
