Why not subscribe?
Well, honestly, I like to be able to determine whether or not I'm going to want a given issue before actually buying it and adding it to my collection.
Why not subscribe?
I really enjoyed that section in 400. I always read the strange deaths first then go to IHTM straight after.I wish the IHTM section was that large every month
I must admit that neither Stu Neville nor I use our real names on this board. It is a secret long hidden but in fact my real name is Stu Neville and the online entity you know as Stu Neville actually has the real world name of Gordon Rutter.
The IHTM compilation was great, I'd forgotten most of them, but I appreciated having my memory jogged about the woman whose 3yo twins screamed they saw a man falling from an aeroplane, and then she saw him later and he was really weird. It's the extended nature of the encounters (over a course of about 3 days) that make it remarkable, and a pity there's no other witnesses we know of.
Nice try, lizards. Nice misdirection there. But your trickery will not work. Combining my QAnon head with my crossword brain, I have already deduced that you are actually Evil Le Nuts and Teodor R Grunt - pizza and wardrobe dealing agents of the worldwide liberal/satanic cabal.
Members of a sarcastic cabal? As if.I read this (it's early and my eyes aren't awake yet) as 'agents of the worldwide literal/sarcastic cabal' and I was nodding...
Stu, Gordon, I think I might need my weekly chastise...

The mag printed one of my letters in IHTM once and it was later incorporated into one of the books they published.
Me and the wife married in the Caribbean on a cruise ship, returning home on 22nd December. After we got back we started to notice the smell of rolling tobacco in the bathroom each morning. Her late husband smoked rolling tobacco. Our heating thermostat also kept mysteriously being turned to full. We were waking some nights or getting back from work to a sauna.Which was your story?
Before I subscribed I used to get mine from WH Smith at Liverpool Street Station or Chelmsford High Street. Problem was it seemed to be in a different place every time I went looking for it. In the end I stopped hunting for it and just asked the staff if it was in.Aaaargh reading this has made me wish I'd read this edition, it sounds excellent.
I used to buy the magazine from WH Smith several years ago, I have some of them along with 2 or 3 of the separate little It Happened to Me compendiums.
But alas the shop didn't always stock it - seemed somewhat hit and miss, there was never any regularity to it, we would just look each time we were at the shop and it would either be there or it wouldn't - and we could never find it anywhere else. Therefore as a consequence I haven't been able to buy it for quite some time.
Mine arrives regularly in this little corner of Tier 4 Essex. If you are concerned, what about giving the online issue as a subscription gift?I lost touch with the Mags, never see them on the Newsagent shelves anymore, didn't know the state of Dennis, heard stories on the Forum about Subscription/ distribution problems (my brother only gets 65% of Private Eye). However, I'll tell him to go ahead (so I get to read them). Thank you.

It's possible that she hasn't read the debate we've had in here, and hasn't read the new conclusions we made.Was rather surprised though to see Jenny Randles still apparently believing that the "Cumberland Spaceman/Spacemum" was not an over-exposed image of the back of Templeton's wife, who had inadvertently crept into shot.
Yep. It is.My brother has been asked if he wants a subscription for Xmas. Can anyone speculate in all honesty please whether they think FT will still be around in a year's time ?
Thanks Stu.Yep. It is.
