Some of us may know that the Notebook magazine is no more. It is finished. Kaput. Nada. Zippo. Gone. Out a here.. Get the picture. Now, I was on the first scheme to pilot the layout, stories etc as a consumer and was in love from that day onwards. It was different to any other magazine around and had these heavenly sections to fold out, like an index system. Ingenious. I have had many subscriptions over the years and given many as presents. It was reasonably priced and something exciting to look forward to every month. ...
I still have 2 months to go on my own subscription, given to me by an insightful sister i-l. So, I received a letter to say that as a replacement I would be receiving a country type of magazine for the remainder of my time. So far so good...
Why o why did a skinny little gardening magazine arrive in the mail today? It is about 1/4 the thickness of Notebook and quite insipid. Not that I have anything against gardening but when promised country...... sadly wanting I'm afraid. I thought it was advertising material!! So, 'not happy Jan'...
Ciao for now
