Has anyone seen it? I'm reluctant to send off for a sub, following the
Technology at Home disaster.

Sadly, I think the only realistic view of this kind of thing is as a
relic of a bygone age. It used to be interesting and potentially useful
to read about how to fix things, but if the magazine really contains 7
pages of fault reports, who's going to find that useful now? And what
else can it contain that couldn't be found in seconds on the internet at
a cost of zero?

Rod.

Yes. I was a bit sceptical but I did send off a subscription and am
really pleased to see that the mag arrived and was a good read.
Many of the old contributors are back and the format is better than
the old one had become.
Donald Bullock, A day in the life, Roger Bunney, Test Case, all there.

Long may this continue, but it will need our support both as buyers
and contributors.
I think fault reports are relevent. I think anything we can do to help
each other and compare notes is good. Independent businesses can help
each other to stay afloat by sharing ideas of good practice and
quality workmanship.
Also by comparing notes we can have a laugh and stop ourselves going
completely mad as we realise that we are not the only ones with
completely impossible customers who want miracles for peanuts.

Enthusiasts exist and like to compare notes and so long as the editor
keeps to his stated and intended format, I am sure he will make a
success of it.

I do hope you are right. Is it on general sale do you know?

Not sure about that.
There isnt a bar code on the front, which might be a clue, although it
looks fully professional.

Yes, I've had some contact with Tony. I suppose I'd better stop being so
cautious and subscribe to the bloody thing.

I've enjoyed some of your stories on here as much as some of the late LLJ's
in Television.
Never mind subscribing, how about getting a few published?

Thanks for that. I suppose I'd better get my finger out.
