North south divide

[Hugh Robjohns]

The publication date is tomorrow... but some mailed copies will be arriving today in the more efficient parts of the postal system!

[Drew Stephenson]

Some people just love showing off!

Some people just love showing off!

I thought I’d mention it because I’m usually one of the later recipients. But now you come to mention it I do admit to feeling a little smug.

[Drew Stephenson]

I shake my puny fist in frustration!

[Martin Walker]

I shake my puny fist in frustration!

I think that ought to be your new catchphrase Drew

Martin

[Drew Stephenson]

It's certainly my MO!

[ManFromGlass]

You’ll get letters from the Puny Fist Coalition who will be offended....

[zenguitar]

... From a distance.

But it works! Both my SOS and Private Eye have been delivered.

[Folderol]

Yay! Bragging rights

[Drew Stephenson]

Fear the puny fist!

[Martin Walker]

But it works! Both my SOS and Private Eye have been delivered.

I admire your choices - two publications that really tell it how it is

I can still remember the thrill of grabbing a copy of SOS at my local Sainsbury’s, or WHS, I’d go home, prepare some Shepard’s pie on toast along with reading SOS and be in heaven.
However, those memories are as distant now, as my memories of reading Studio Sound in
1974.

[ManFromGlass]

My collection of SOS was one of my prized possessions. I wore out some articles.

and Drew PF - “we are not worthy!”

[Drew Stephenson]

Looks like the puny fist will need to be unsheathed in anger again...
I blame Matt Hancock.

[Hugh Robjohns]

My issue turned up today. Clearly some mysterious delay in the system again.

[Drew Stephenson]

I'm sure it will turn up tomorrow, which gives me something to read on sunday morning whilst lying in bed and drinking coffee.
This is the best way to spend sunday morning, if anyone was wondering...

[Drew Stephenson]

I guess we're blaming the driver shortage this month...

[Hugh Robjohns]

Yes, he delivered mine this morning and said he was on his way up to the North next...

[MOF]

Yes, he delivered mine this morning and said he was on his way up to the North next...

Good, that means Nottingham next.

[Drew Stephenson]

We'll have to get the driver one of those deliveroo GPS trackers so we can see where they've got to.

We'll have to get the driver one of those deliveroo GPS trackers so we can see where they've got to.

Those 'your driver is currently here' maps are all very well, but when waiting in for a driver to deliver a parcel to me I've noticed that sometimes they can be in the next street, then drive several miles away, and then come back to me, so I'm not sure their route planning is particularly optimised

Martin

[Drew Stephenson]

I've wondered about that as well. You'd think by 2021 we'd have got to grips with the Travelling Salesman problem!

But maybe we have, my copy arrived this morning.

[Drew Stephenson]

Here we go again.

(Not that I'm prone to exaggeration)
