Re: Journal 67
Its been 'in production' since the start of October - roughly - so yes, it should be coming along anytime soon. Tony doesn't usually publish the contents on the Journal page these days until he is posting them off to us.

Re: Journal 67
Yes - I agree - a lovely cover! Its lovely to see some of the colour plates from Two Years In the Infant School, as they are such great pieces of art. Great contents too of course. I look forward to receiving it!

Hooray.
My Journal has just arrived. As Nick and Rob rightly say, the front cover is indeed splendid - now which article to read first??
"Read the editorial first, you silly sausage!" I hear you cry!

Re: Journal 67
Hooray, mine's arrived too! Well done, Tony — this looks like another excellent issue and it's so good to hear you had a bumper crop of articles after all. I'll sit down to enjoy some tasty ones over lunch...

Re: Journal 67
67 has been pushed securely through the door. It looks as mouthwatering as it's 66 predecessors. I'll settle down later to begin reading it. In the meantime my subscription for the next three instalments has been promptly done.

Mine arrived just as I was going out... so now I'm back I am sitting down with a nice cup of tea, ready to enjoy the contents of the Journal.
