Why do I always, always, always muddle up the two Stus?
Stu Ferrol will not be amused... |

Here's me all ready to congratulate our glorious moderator, too. Should be a good article no matter who wrote it!
Amusingly pedantic letters page this issue. Also, the headline about the Florida man arrested in a bank claiming to be the CIA director and half orangutan - surely that was worth an article in itself?
That's all I've read so far. |

I've applied to be upgraded to that, in lieu of other residuals.
I'll let you know how I get on...
Anyway, got mine today too. Saving it for otherwise boring interlude tomorrow. |

Got mine today.
Interesting.
It seems to be printed using only a film of ink which seems quite flimsy.
I bet the paper companies are shitting themselves now they're redundant - have you thought of patenting this remarkable process that avoids paper completely?
On the plus side, I'm REALLY looking forward to reading the Hexham Heads article. I remember watching Look North when it was reported and thinking it was the oddest story I'd ever heard. |

| Get well soon! Didn't get a chance to read any more, but I do like the bear photos, especially the flying one. |
