I saw your recent post regarding the proposal to begin an annual subscription for your pdf downloads.
This sounds like a great idea to me but I can’t seem to find anywhere on your site where I can sign up or register my details.
I guess I need a password or a log-in – but how do I get such a thing!
I recently clicked on the pdf download page but it said ‘Comments are closed’ and I couldn’t get any further.
Can you point me in the right direction please.

Hi Paul,
We began a download service about two years ago, costing the symbolic sum of one euro per copy and, for the price of 10 euros, a yearly voucher that permitted readers to download as many copies of the Gazette, as well as other PDF’s available (short stories & Costa Tropical Guide) as they wished. The problem was, and still is, that many people find it difficult to get to grips with the system.
So, what we have decided is to make it as simple as possible: readers pay 10 euros into our PayPal account (publisher@theseasidegazette.com) and we will include them on a monthly email containing the month’s PDF. So there’s no having to go through the site’s downloading process.
If you would like to be included then that is all you have to do.
As for signing in on the site as a subscriber, we had to close the feature owing to heavy bot infiltration. However, I will sign you up using your name and email address on this email – this costs nothing.
Thank you for writing in and hope to hear from you soon.
The Seaside Gazette Team
