Thank You It's with great sadness that I acknowledge the closing of the Cessnock Advertiser and that this will be its last edition. The 'Addy' has seen our community through many ups and downs over its lifespan and has been a mainstay in many people's week. Always keeping us up to date with the latest from our backyard, as well as nationally and abroad, it has been a beacon of information for decades. I would like to give a big shout out and thanks to all the journos, photographers, and staff who have contributed to the success of the Advertiser - you are all part of history and have enriched the lives of those long term and loyal readers who have relied on your paper for regular updates. Thank you, Cessnock Advertiser, you will be missed.
