Issue 3

#1 Post by gill216 » Sun Mar 01, 2009 12:35 pm

The postman has been kind to some of you and you have your copy of Issue 3. For anyone who hasn't Pm'd me but are wondering, Scurra is away this weekend- passwords will be issued on his return and the "Court in the Act" forum will also appear.

:oops: :oops:
I appear to have sent out the password email with the words "issue two" in the subject line.
The passwords are definitely for issue three.
If you have any problems, please drop me a line.

I still haven't solved the forum access problem (although thanks to MBH for helping me test one approach that turned out not to work!) so you won't have immediate access to the forum. Sorry about that.

Well if your postman comes at silly o'clock, then you're doing well. :D

Have the passwords been sent? (because mine hasn't arrived yet) I'm going to mug the postman as he comes up the street to see if he has anything for me. :twisted:

<grrrrrr> (that's aimed at me, not anyone else)
I have resent the issue three password email. It now says issue three at the top, but this time it might actually have been sent to people...

My postman has been yet, but I'm hoping for an early birthday prezzie :D

But will this stop me from cleaning the walls of the lounge so I can start to paint on Wednesday :o

Got my magazine and password today. Password has let me in!

This month's magazine feels nicer than ever. Quality of paper and printing and wonderful!
Well done to both of you.

(I expect I won't be able to do the puzzles, but at least the pages should stand up to some rubbings out)

I might have done my first puzzle, but without the password there is no way of telling whether what I have is an answer.

No password for me either and I even updated my email address after the last mistake. (entirely my fault that one was)

I tested the access with the password, but got the paper magazine this morning :) Very stylish look and feel - a browse give me a couple of ideas of which ones to start, and I spottted a few familiar names along the way :D

Time to stoke up the little grey cells ;)

I wonder how many people tell Scurra that some fool has put one of the titles the wrong way up :roll: Page 8 if I remember correctly :twisted:
