Hi *|FIRSTNAME|*

I hope you had a great Valentine's celebration last night with your 'significant other'. But after stuffing your face with pancakes on Tuesday (yes?), now let 'Lent begin'! Yes, just 40 days/nights to Easter, but what (if anything) will you be giving up this year? Surely not another dry month?

Well, in case you hadn't noticed, it's COMEDY WEEK in Harborough, and I'm not talking about our politicians! The BIG WEEK of the Leicester Comedy Festival has arrived in town and promises to get us 'rolling about on the floor with laughter' and let's face it, we could all do with a bit of that. So check out the schedule here and try to get to at least one event if you can. You'll feel so much better!

MILESTONE: I'm thrilled to announce we've now obtained 10,001 verified reviews (as of last night) from Bestof Market Harborough Business customers! That's a milestone I'm proud of and says a lot about our local businesses and the community supporting them. A positive review/feedback is so powerful for business owners to know that they are appreciated and that they are 'getting it right'. Customer satisfaction is key to their business. It's also a great morale boost for their staff and a great recommendation and confidence booster to other potential customers to shop/dine there. So PLEASE, continue to leave a positive review on Google, Facebook, or The Bestof when given the chance, and especially if you've received good service. It only takes a minute. Here's a blog post of old that says alot more.

So most schools in Leicestershire will be breaking for half term next week, so maybe you'll be looking for 'things to do' to keep your family occupied. Well as I said, the BIG weekend of Comedy started yesterday in Harborough and runs locally until Mon 19th Feb, but did you know there's a special COMEDY CLUB FOR KIDS event at Harborough Market this Sun 18th February? It'll be great family fun and there's a FREE ADULT TICKET PER CHILD TICKET PURCHASED! Click on the link above for ticket information.

No newsletter would be complete without a mention of what DUNCAN MURRAY WINES is up to! And true to form, as well as his usual Saturday FREE Tasting which this week features some very special Belgian beers!, MR FIZZ himself will be propping up the bar at the 'FANCY A LAUGH' comedy show at The Octagonal Theatre at Welland Park College, featuring some great comedians tomorrow night (FRI 16th Feb). It promises to be a hilarious night, and really shouldn't be missed.

Please scroll down this page and take a peek at this week's selected local offers from highly recommended businesses in Market Harborough and find some selected upcoming events in and around the town, brought to you by thebestof Market Harborough, your community hub for thebestof everything local.
