I can't be the only one who got the new issue today, can I? Nice early Christmas present, spent this afternoon reading about Victorian ghost impersonators, Father Fanthorpe's vintage books and the sham that was Greyfriars Bobby.

Really good letters page this ish too, IHTMs and all, the voice changer one is especially spooky (if only they'd taken a recording!). Also, top marks for what must have been a tricky illustration for Mythconceptions.

Mine arrived today too but I've been too busy to even open it. Sad

Will have a good read as a reward later though. Very Happy

He has now been revealed as unreliable, contrary to his reputation.

There's an appalling error in this issue's Phenomenomix: Chas Hodges playing banjo and Dave Peacock playing piano - really?
