Though without wanting to be shot down in flames etc I had one slight criticism, and it's not about the mag itself just the packaging. Maybe I'm getting old, or turning into a tree hugger (I have actually been for a long time!) but I prefer the old eco-friendly reusable/recyclable brown envelope to the new "throw it in the landfill" plastic cover. Just my personal opinion FWIW.

Hi Max,
The reasons for the new polywrap packaging are twofold:
1. It's lighter than an envelope, reducing postage costs.
2. It allows us to use prepaid postage and to put more on the carrier sheet, like return address, whether your membership has expired etc.
Think of the trees you are saving by use a petrochemical-based product in their place!
Anyway, glad you like the mag. The clever bits with the graphics are down to Lucy. The rest is just hard graft.
