Mail strikes – sorry again!

Once again we find ourselves having to apologise – through no fault of our own – for the late arrival of The Scottish Farmer to the majority of our readers who buy the paper by subscription. Last week, the November 26 issue was days late because of a strike by Royal Mail workers across the weekend and it looks likely there will remain disruption to our normal service at least until Christmas.

We can only do our best to mitigate these circumstances and show understanding to those who miss their weekly dose of 'The Farmer'. One of the ways we are doing this is to give subscribers free access to our excellent on-line version of The SF and all of you should have received a code that would allow access to this.

Please make the fullest use of it and, who knows you may even get to like that method of delivery. To that end, keep an eye out of our excellent digital subscription deals that we will be pushing in the coming weeks.

Thank you for remaining loyal to our brand. It means a lot and hopefully the mail strikes will be resolved soon. The digital edition will be updated each week for print subscribers at the following link while strike action is happening: https://www.thescottishfarmer.co.uk/printsubscribers/
