           MAGAZINE LOST IN THE POST?
           MAGAZINE LOST IN THE POST?
           Over the years I have had a number of subscribers approach me saying they
           never got their magazines and they must have been lost in the post. However,
           on about three occasions, as I do hear things and word does get back to me,
           they were not lost in the post but given away to a non-subscriber whose pic-
           ture or an article including them was printed in a certain copy. I do hate being
           taken advantage of as the magazine runs on a shoestring.
                 The readers then claim the magazine must have been lost in the post,
           so I send them another one. I do know that things get lost in the post and I
           have serious first-hand experience of it. However, in future I will not send an-
           other copy but (no offence), will appeal to any reader who has finished with a good clean copy to
           send it on, especially as I do not print a lot of spare copies.
