Hi there all!

My name is Ben Mills and with a few other guys we've just started up a new Leicester based online zine called Charlie Don't Surf (http://www.charliedontsurfzine.co.uk.) We mostly focus on reviews of films, records, live music, theatre and comedy but we also will be doing things such as interest articles, humour, creative writing, artwork, cartoons, listings, documentary videos, interviews (all hopefully.)

We are also planning on making a fairly rustic fanzine as well to go along with it in the next month or so.

Basically this is a quick message to say that any Leicester reviews or articles that we do we would love to stick up anywhere on your website, if at all possible (for example check out the Stewart Lee review up there now and we will be reviewing the Los Campesinos! gig next friday with hopefully an interview) If you have any articles that you wish any of us to write, we would be more than happy to do so as well.

Any advice or help anyone on either the FD2D team or anyone reading this would be greatly appreciated.
