elcome to your June edition. The Queen did it on her official birthday, Tim Peake does it from space and it’s claimed 350,000 do it per minute – so what is the appeal of micro-blogging


site Twitter? As the social media phenomenon turns 10, we look at how it has affected all our lives. On the travel front we explore this summer’s hottest destinations, and turn up the heat for entertaining indoors and alfresco with our kitchen special. With a series of Great British Tennis Weekends taking place up and down the country, not to mention winning the Davis Cup for the first time in 79 years and the annual Wimbledon fortnight running until 10th July, we discover that there’s plenty of opportunity to pick up a racket and play locally. And if your looking for inspiration for Father’s Day on 19th June, our ultimate gift guide will ensure your present buying is fuss free. We have all our regular reads, too – so here’s to another brilliant issue of INDEX!
