The print room’s new little helper is having some time in the naughty corner after this week’s shenanigans.
There has been a bit of a mix-up at the printer this week and we have ended up with two page fourteens by mistake. Nothing against that page but naturally we would prefer at least one page eleven.
Page eleven this week was a good one. It had a couple of cartoons that were good for a chuckle. There was nice contributions form our letter writers too. We love our letter writers and are very sorry that some went missing this week. You will be able to find Michael Balson, Andrew Hall, Dr Sonia Laverty and Kate Larkins and Bruce Chester’s letters here in Echonetdaily in the Letters section.
The other really important content that was lost from the printed paper was of course some of our valued advertisers. We’re really sorry guys and will make it up to you. Promise. The Rails had their gigs for the next week listed and Byron MediSpa, Summerland Garden Centre and Byron Medicine Wheel all have great offers on now so check them out.
For the Echo completionists who don’t feel whole until they’ve gone cover to cover (we know you’re out there), here is page eleven in its intended form.

A note from the editorial team
Some of The Echo’s editorial team: journalists Paul Bibby and Aslan Shand, editor Hans Lovejoy, photographer Jeff Dawson and Mandy Nolan
“The Echo has never underestimated the intelligence and passion of its readers. In a world of corporate banality and predictability, The Echo has worked hard for more than 30 years to help keep Byron and the north coast unique with quality local journalism and creative ideas. We think this area needs more voices, reasoned analysis and ideas than just those provided by News Corp, lifestyle mags, Facebook groups and corporate newsletters.
The Echo is one hundred per cent locally owned and one hundred per cent independent. As you have probably gathered from what is happening in the media industry, it is not cheap to produce a weekly newspaper and a daily online news service of any quality.
We have always relied entirely on advertising to fund our operations, but often loyal readers who value our local, independent journalism have asked how they could help ensure our survival.
Any support you can provide to The Echo will make an enormous difference. You can make a one-off contribution or a monthly one. With your help, we can continue to support a better informed local community and a healthier democracy for another 30 years.”
