Before i set out in the torrential rain for the nearest stockist (18 mile round trip) - is it out yet? I don't have any other reason to go in.

 Mine arrivvelled 30 minutes ago via th epostamn
Postman!!
|
|
 Jan - it arrived by post in Aberdeen this morning - I thought they arrived later in the shops.
|
|
 Mine arrived via post this morning as well.
Well done this month TGO :-)
|
|
Wow, my post doesn't arrive until 1pm. I dind't realise the post office still made am deliveries ;-)
Question is though - is it in the shops?
|
|
 It's in WHSmiths in Manchester. The article on the mooncup on page 80 has me baffled, but then I'm a bloke so no surprise there!
|
|
 Well, i'll be surprised if it's in my WHS tomorrow, i dont think they bother until it's either - Saturday, or all the others are sold out :-(
|
|
 Not yet in Booths near me. Tomorrow, perhaps...
|
|
 Should have been in the shops Thursday but I'm hearing that it hasn't arrived in some areas.
Again, the message has to be place a regular order and get it delivered by paperboy/girl/man/woman/person-of-indeterminate-age-and-gender-and-sexual-preference or get a subscription.
Helps guarantee mine and Cameron's jobs for another month! ;-)

 Mine arrived Wednesday, and its a tad thin this month once you deduct all the Scottish articles in it.
[In my opinion that is]
|
|
Only joking!!

 Got mine in Cardiff Queen St WHS yesterday. I have taken out a subscription for future issues.
Then I thought that subscription might have an adverse effect on shop sales in that if enthusiasts or even the armchair interested go to subscription there isn't a guaranteed custom for the shops and so TGO may get pulled from their shelves. In turn that would deny availablity to the casual browser who might or might not be be a walker and who could have become a convert to and a regular buyer of TGO.

 With WH Smith in trouble they can and do pull any magazines that they want.
They really only want to sell big hitters like FHM, Heat etc, and not little specialist magazines at all.
If you subscribe you obviously escape the scrum of people (men) standing around like the store is a library!

Yeah! doesn't that just hack you off? You go into WHS at lunchtime to buy your fav mag, newspaper etc and you can't get near the shelves for all these office suits standing there READING, not perusing but READING, their fav mags and papers.
Look closely at these wazzocks and you'll see their suits are made of flint skins.

And then when you want to actually buy a copy you can't find one that doesn't look like the whole worlds already read it!
