Well, I can safely say in the time since we started putting this rag together (think it was sometime in April, though the dates and places are all blurred now), we have learnt...
...that you can produce a quality magazine, print it on recycled paper with no carbon emissions, with vegetable based ink for the same money you can do it on horrible forest destroying Nazi paper...
...but it's still the most stressful thing in the world to raise the money to do so...
...the best records released in six months in the middle of 2006 sound like demented slightly past the sell by date punk rock ("I'm A Rat" by Towers Of London) or Blue Oyster Cult (the Midlake album - people keep saying Fleetwood Mac - trust me, it's BOC dude)...
...and the best gig was by The Cult...
...the people who worked with us on the rag are the most patient, nicest bunch of people we've ever met (some we've never met too) who have displayed unlimited trust towards us that humbles us daily...
...the trailer for the '300' film is way cool...
...the Thames and Hudson Underground Press Book proves that although we sure weren't the first, but, thankfully, we surely won't be the last...
...the singer of Jet is one of the best blokes ever...
...the drummer is cool too...
...Beck's records are too fucking long - who EVER needs 17 tracks?????...
...waiting for the man seems to take longer year on year...
...that might be the Congestion Charge though...
...and, finally, the most important thing the last six months have taught us is, however desperate, never ever under any circumstances marry Heather Mills... believe me, we've thought about it too...
