The Bank Tavern Newsletter (The Official Organ of the Bank Tavern) has been an offline repository for news, views (predominantly Ed’s) and nonsense for the last 12 months, with essential bits of Bank twaddle being distributed throughout the year.
Do you have a burning topic for discussion? Do you have an article you’d like to have heavily edited or discarded out of hand? If so, make sure you get in touch nd the Newsletter Editorial Team will be sure to get back to you.
That said, we are starting a “Letters to the Editor” section (seriously), so send us an e-mail and we’ll happily include the ones that tickle us (in a good way).
We feel it brings the Bank Tavern Village together with a collective sense of “huh?” each issue, so while we promise to write more whenever we have news (check out the new issue in fact), we have archived these missives for posterity below.
