Caithness
Calendar 1998
We
publish calendars annually of the following areas: Orkney, Shetland,
Western Isles and Caithness. The calendars are the same design
as for the last two years, with a larger size which allows bigger
pictures and a more useful calendar area, but with only minimal
increase in price and weight. The pictures are of course all
new. As usual the calendars are widely available in each
area, but may be ordered direct, either via e-mail charles.tait@zetnet.co.uk,
telephone or fax. Retail price is £4.50 per calendar plus
UK postage and packing of 50p. Overseas post and packaging extra
at cost. Payment by Visa, Mastercard or American Express is
preferred.
