This is just a quick update to let monthly members know they were charged today for September. If your payment failed, you should be notified so that your…
Here are a few highlights from the chat forum this week. If you haven't stopped by, please come along and join the private conversation about all things British!
There's not much to update this week, only to encourage everyone to pop over to Anglotopia.chat and join the conversation about all things British. We have lots of interesting threads going! Check it out here.
The Georgian Flat
I once stayed in an old Georgian terraced flat in the middle of the summer with a sick pregnant woman. It was… an interesting experience.
Apologies for the late hour for this week's Sunday Post; we had a family matter come up unexpectedly (everything is fine now!).
Member Update
A couple of big bits of news since last week. We hit our goal of 100 new members (now at 102, actually)! As a result, we set up the new chat room/forum this week, and it's up and running. You can access it by going to Anglotopia.chat, and…
We're very close to 100 members - we've been doing a big push this weekend, and as of the writing of this email, we're at 94 members. Hopefully, we'll hit our 100 target by tomorrow, and then we can begin setting up the private Forum/Chat room. We can't wait! Welcome to all the new members who joined last week. You're now in a happy place, and we can't wait to…
A couple of housekeeping items for the club this week. There won't be an early podcast this week. In case you didn't see our updates on social media, Anglotopia was hacked, and the sites were down for several days. We've spent the last few days getting everything back up and running (this club is hosted by someone else and was not affected). Because of this, we were unable to release last week's…
Just a quick member's update this week, and then we take you on a journey to a magical book market located underneath a bridge in London.
Member Update
Just a quick update for everyone this week - we've reached 80 members! Welcome to everyone who signed up last week. We hope you like what we're doing here, creating a lovely little positive corner of the internet where we can appreciate everything lovely…
This week, we have a short member update, and we explore a special tower in Wiltshire dedicated to an ancient king that looks much older than it actually is. Read on for details!
Member Update
We are very, very close to seventy members! Hopefully, we'll get to our 100-member goal by the end of the summer (and then we can invest in the software for the private chat room/forum). Thank you for…
This week, we have an important update for members paying monthly and we have our first new discount exclusive to members for British wooden puzzles. Finally, this week, I have a Sunday Post slightly related to British elections, but I promise it's not political in any way. How do Victorian trains and the 1997 general election connect? I'm going to tell you! It's really interesting, I promise!
Welcome to the Sunday Post, your lovely little bit of Britain delivered to your inbox every Sunday. First, a few club member updates. Then we're going to tell you a story about a toll bridge (I promise it's interesting!)
Club Updates
I'm excited to report that we have reached 55 members in our first week! Thank you for signing up for the club; we hope this little island of positivity brings joy…
Thank you for signing up for the new Friends of Anglotopia Club! This first Sunday Post is going out to 25 of you. It's early days yet, but we hope that as the club grows, this will become a lovely little corner of the internet dedicated to all things British. We have planned this club for years, and it's always nerve-wracking launching something new like this. The positive response (and…
Editor's Note: This is an example of the Sunday Post article - Which will be sent to all Friends of Anglotopia members every Sunday. It was announced recently that London’s daily newspaper, The Evening Standard, would cease daily publication and change to printing weekly and focus on digital-only delivery. I met this news with considerable sadness as I have very fond memories of the Evening Standard. Another London institution changes beyond recognition.
I was still a fresh young traveler to Britain when I bought my first Wellington Boots. I didn’t learn about the famous boots until I started watching The BBC show called Countryfile. It’s a weekly dedicated to country matters all over the British Isles. I noticed that week after week, the hosts would be wearing weird rubber boots that said ‘Hunter’ on them. I’d never seen boots like them before (we have…
