Editors - in - chief<br />

<strong>The</strong> days are getting shorter, the mornings are getting colder, the<br />

Christmas music is beginning to play… it must be time for the second issue<br />

of <strong>The</strong> <strong>Inkling</strong>!<br />

Since the release of <strong>Volume</strong> One, our editors, journalists, designers<br />

and photographers have been hard at work to produce a magazine that’s<br />

bigger, better, and more festive than the first. This issue definitely does<br />

have a holiday season theme: you’ll find a recipe for mince pies, an opinion<br />

piece about the role of religion in Christmas and even an article about<br />

turkey farming! We hope that once you finish reading this issue you’ll be<br />

fully feeling the Christmas spirit.<br />

But, of course, not everything is holiday-themed. Our journalists have<br />

delved into topics ranging from 80s films to part time jobs, so there really is<br />

something to suit anyone and everyone. We’ve also enjoyed a lot of teacherinvolvement<br />

in this volume: don’t miss our ‘Would You Rather?’ quiz with Mr<br />

Heaney, or Miss Churchman’s article about the scary prospect of head<br />

transplants.<br />

In this volume you may also notice some serials from the previous<br />

edition. We have the second chapter of Katie’s story, as well as new<br />

instalments of the Top 10 and Mr and Ms PRIDE. <strong>The</strong> SVC Events section<br />

has also been particularly busy this month - with a huge array of musical<br />

and academic events, the lead-up to the Christmas holidays is always a<br />

busy time for us all.<br />

Don’t forget that <strong>The</strong> <strong>Inkling</strong> relies on student participation. If you<br />

have something to say, we want to hear it. <strong>The</strong> more the merrier here on the<br />

<strong>Inkling</strong> team!<br />

Thank you for opening our magazine: we hope you enjoy <strong>Volume</strong> Two!<br />
