    • Vindictive Valentine cards? As well as sweet sentiments and soppy poems, 150 years ago there were also cards for cads and pigs…..male, of course. They are on display at the Priest House Museum, Wimborne.

    • Even pets get the January Blues as we are told in this instalment of ‘Pet Patter’.
    • Five things you must do before you go on holiday. And how you might beat the price hike for a passport.
