Reviews
Good evening folks, here's a look at the front page of this week's Stockport Express. We have a heartbreaking story of thugs stealing a boy's bike - even though they knew it was a gift from his late father, pictures from Blossoms homecoming concert at Edgeley Park and a superfan who met his music heroes from the Beautiful South at the same venue. Plenty more too and it's out tomorrow.

The trail launches on Saturday, June 29.
The theme was Marple does the decades as Marple Carnival celebrated a ‘record breaking’ year. Spectators were treated to a spectacular day’s entertainment with the finish marked with a gun salute by a 25-pounder field gun. Organisers were happy with the record crowds who lined the street for the parade, which they said was the longest for many years. Bands, vintage cars, tractors, a DeLorean car, stilt walkers and a Second World War gun unit all made for a memorable event. Ca...rnival Queen Isabel Blades was joined by her royalty retinue. Full story and great pictures courtesy of Jake Taylor in the paper out now.
