to close this saga and illustrate the disconnect between sections of MTM i have just received a nominally couriered copy of #300 the paperwork states delivered to DHP at 14:41 on the 19th Jan and arrived via Royal Mail on 22nd – however I had emailed Beth on 16th stating that not having had any communication from MTM I had bought the sole copy in Smiths – so now I have 2 copies, no explanation of why my subscription was suspended and a rather jaundiced view about MTM

Or could it be a combination of there being a weekend between the 16th & 19th and the fact many of the MTM staff work part time so she or the next person down the line may not have looked at e-mail on Monday 18th.

Though Neil's two posts above do seem to show some disconnect in one section

well maybe things have improved as #301 has just dropped thro my letter box – the earliest it has ever been wrt to date it appears in the shops – this time it arrived in the standard plastic bag rather than a special delivery.

301 not on digital yet. Snail mail faster than interweb?

[JasonBModerator @jasonb]

It is if you read it on Pocketmags which is the method we always recommend. As is ME 4658

Archive somwetimes lags, the assumption is that people read their subs copies on pocketmags, The archive was intended for back issues, although they tend to be put up relatively early these days.

My paper copies of 301 came yesterday.

Up here in sunny South Australia MEW 300 has just arrived. I am happy to admit to being impressed with it. The carrier pigeon seemed a bit exhausted……..

cheers

I still occasionally check W H Smiths main shop in Churchill Sq., Brighton and still no sign of ME/MEW/EIM but have usual railway, bus tractor mags. Seems like they have fallen below a certain critical no of sales per month so no longer stock them. They are after all probably mainly casual purchases,, regular buyers likely to be using subscriptions. I noted last week a greatly reduced variety of the others, railways buses tractors traction and stationary engines mags, so perhaps pandemic has driven vast numbers of customers to subscriptions.

My copy of 301 arrived a bit earlier than expected.
