Its been 'in production' since the start of October - roughly - so yes, it should be coming along anytime soon. ;-) Tony doesn't usually publish the contents on the Journal page these days until he is posting them off to us. :-)

hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

Yes - I agree - a lovely cover! Its lovely to see some of the colour plates from Two Years In the Infant School, as they are such great pieces of art. Great contents too of course. I look forward to receiving it! :-D

Hooray.
My Journal has just arrived. As Nick and Rob rightly say, the front cover is indeed splendid - now which article to read first??

Hooray, mine's arrived too! :D Well done, Tony — this looks like another excellent issue and it's so good to hear you had a bumper crop of articles after all. I'll sit down to enjoy some tasty ones over lunch...

67 has been pushed securely through the door. It looks as mouthwatering as it's 66 predecessors. I'll settle down later to begin reading it. In the meantime my subscription for the next three instalments has been promptly done. :D
