'Tether's End?'
A magazine solely for those at the end of their tether? We're a-frayed knot, though we may be at the end of ours (and we do enjoy work on that theme...) Our name comes from a handwritten sign which hangs over a small corner of a bungalow garage in East Yorkshire. We want to see writing as eclectic as its contents.
The end of one's tether (chiefly British, informal): a state in which one is not able to deal with a problem, difficult situation, etc., any longer. 'I'm at the end of my tether.'
