Since that new mag (ski at night (?) came out, I haven't seen S&T in my local WHS. Is there a rule that says they can only carry 2 astro mags? the other being Atronomy Now Strangely, WHS has both the January and Feb copies of PCW on the shelves, maybe the manager is a computer fan.

Pete In the two WHS that I regularly use (Finchley Rd in London and Uxbridge High St) the addition of the new magazine has not, so far, affected their stock of S&T. P R Hobson |

For whatever reason, S&T is almost unique in american astro products as being cheaper in the UK than it is in the US (5.99 USD cf 2.95 UKP). However, for the 3 year subscription rate you end up paying 50% more than the 'merkins for it. I'm assuming that's the overhead of delivering single copies by post rather than bulk transporting a whole consignment.

Pete iirc my copy comes from Belgium where I had assumed they were printed in Europe rather than being flown over. I find the subscription is worth saving the hassle of remembering to get to WHS at the time they -randomly- get some in, and before they run out! Mark |

Pete What about using your local paper shop, mine will get magazines to order and either deliver them when they come in, they send them out with the papers, even if you don't have a daily paper, or you can arrange to collect them from the shop. You get the mag each month without having to hunt round for it and you pay the cheaper cover price. -- Regards Nick |
