Thats great news Chris.
Sometimes we ( semi-) "computer literate" folk forget that about 30% of club members's only contact, is by reading the mag. These interweb thingy's are Ok for most, but not for all.
I fully appreciate the time that goes into sorting out the mag....and getting the membership dues in, to pay for it and the rest of the clubs activities, NEC etc.!!
Keep up the good work.

Thanks chris, but it's actually about 55% that dont use the forum, thats why the mag is so important (and popular)

you and your car and some photos if you'd like to write
something and email it to Chris

It is interesting to note that in Delorean World, Winter 2011, the magazine of the USA Delorean Owners Association, Ron Ferguson, in his President's message, states -' We also tried to use the internet. A couple of years ago we initiated the concept of Stainless News, an electronic newsletter sent to every e mail address that we had. This did not gain acceptance as we hoped, as an electronic publication discriminates against members who are not connected to the net. At best, only 30% of the membership could enjoy it.'
It is really important to keep articles rolling into Chris. It does not take long to write an article, I have just completed 2000+ words on Eurofest 2011 which took me no more that 90 mins to put together and if I can do it anybody can!!!
The latest mag is excellent and full credit to Chris Williams for pulling it all together, he has done a magnificent job.

:oops: :oops:
Thanks, however it is all down to the quality of the articles that are sent in. Plus the quality of the mag layout that comes from Phil's and Andy's work in the past.
