• Welcome to the February edition

    At the top of the page is a handy flip book. It’s quite a big hi-res file and may take a while to download. You turn the double-page spreads by clicking on the top right hand corner.

    If you see anything you want to look at more closely, click on the  full page button at top right. Use the (+) zoom button next to it to enlarge the pages enough to easily read all the articles as printed.

    With over 100 contributors and 16,000 copies, the content highlights the issues, concerns and interests of a creative, environmentally aware alternative culture. 

    Produced as a not-for-profit with the help of 20 volunteers, we hope you enjoy reading this month’s edition. 

    We welcome contributions. Read our writers guide.

    The next edition deadline is Fri 20th February 2026.
