This week's Kent Messenger will save you money with some great offers - including a free driving lesson for every reader, and our weekly Let's Do Lunch meal offers.

This week we also have obituaries and tributes for artist Tony Hart, who was born in Maidstone, and former Maidstone United chairman Jim Thompson.

Our main story is about the delays bereaved families are facing to arrange funerals for their loved ones after an unexpected increase in the number of deaths across the area. Some are facing up to a four-week wait.

We also have the latest on Kent International Gateway and a feature about a woman who cried every time she ate a meal, until botox injections finally dried her tears.

The great value KM also includes our Headline Travel supplement, What's On and all the latest news and sport.
