That's the phrase used on BBC Breakfast as you are transferred from the national to local news studio.
But not so. Yesterday morning there were stories from Suffolk, Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire but not a single piece from Norfolk.
So it was anything but local news yet again. I have no interest in what is happening in Northampton which is well over two hours' drive away.
But I can't see the BBC or any other national outlet doing anything other than staying un local.
So it's down to very local publications put together by very local people to keep the local in news.
I was asked the other day about what the current issues are in Hethersett and what the current news is. Do you know there is so much going on that I just couldn't think of an answer.
There is news everywhere. Take a local church or school or business and each has enough news going on to fill a full publication every month and prove the age old maxim that everyone has a story to tell.
My Hethersett Herald e magazine once hit 150 pages for a month and still regularly hits 100. Different months of the year gives the publication a distinct character.
At Christmas there's a distinctly festive feel to the publication, not surprisingly. In the summer it's all fetes and open gardens. Another person asked me how I keep abreast of everything that is going on and that's a difficult question to answer.
I am aware that even at more than 100 pages a month I can only scratch the surface of what's going on in our village. There is plenty of news that never finds its way through to me.
I keep up to date primarily by following up on previous stories and mainly by keeping my eyes and ears open as I move around the village.
Herald is well enough known to have people send me photos and information and social media is also vitally important in gathering news. I regularly scour Facebook and other Media for stories.
I will give you an example. A close neighbour announced on Facebook that she has retired after many years leading a local orchestra. She posted photos of the last concert.
I messaged her asking if I could use the photos and also pop round for a chat - something I will be doing early next week for an article for my next edition.
Rev Christopher Mallett is on the committee of the Hethersett Dementia Support Group and helps at our twice monthly. He recently celebrated 40 years since his ordination and he was also the first person to be ordained in Hethersett Parish Church. So we sat down at one of our Forget Me Not Cafes for a chat.
Simples as they say. That's the way to do it. I am truly grateful to everyone that has contributed over the past eight years and 93 editions.

One big story on the horizon is the re-opening of the Kings Head. I am still looking for confirmation of this but the saga of the pun closing, then opening, then closing again has featured large in Herald for quite some time. Watch this space as they say.
So an appeal. I'm always looking for stories and information for the magazine. Do get in touch if you would like to be featured.
