Tried to tell him that Ranald but he is not the brightest of people. I think his back is up because he has been waiting since June for the photo of Castlehill Sports winners to be in Courier - but still no sign. Try telling that to kids who keep looking every Friday especially now the schools is back.

To be fair to the Courier, a feature the week before is the way to go, same as they do for other events. Everyone in Campbeltown knows about the MOKMF, but readers of the Courier and Advertiser outwith Campbeltown will be reminded of the event and may want to make travel arrangements.

Advertising, featuring something as it happens and you have missed the boat.
Maybe MOKMF could have published a list of events in the Courier.

There Ranald I think that's worth a free advert :wink:

Would have to disagree Michael - the Courier is only interested in running features if they can fill there pages with adverts. No doubt if the Music Festival wanted to put something in this week they would have had to pay for it like an advert. We can't take it for granted that everyone knows what is going on as, if truth be told, most locals think about it on the week leading to the festival. (fair point about the travellers).

The Courier, like any other business, should be interested in their readers views.

Twice in the last 4 weeks the Courier has had a 4 page spread about Mid Argyll. Why?
