One of the perks of being a cover model, I guess.

Renewed for another 18 editions, had to telephone as I couldn't get access via the on-line renewal system, but looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us Keith

Hi all, thank you for the support. I've been informed by the pubisher that the mag is on hold for the moment, but normal service will be resumed as soon as feasible. The problems are twofold: first, the main two outlets (WH Smith in the UK and Barnes & Noble in the USA) have effectively prevented us from selling the magazine – WHS has shut over 60 per cent of its High Street outlets (many of which will probably not reopen as the company has been in severe trouble for sometime), while Barnes & Noble has announced it's not taking any new stock. The second problem at present is that several advertisers have either withheld advertising, or withheld payment for their advertising, the lifeblood of any title. However, anyone who has subscribed will still receive the full number of issues, it's just that there might be a delay. If it's any consolation, as a freelancer I am now temporarily out of work until this lockdown period is over. Shame I don't have a garage where I can work on my car as I've all the time in the world for the foreseeable future!

Once again, many thanks for your support. :)

Sorry to read this KS.

But it sounds promisingly temporary.

Lots of time and not much money can often be better for the spirit than lots of money and not much time.

Well, I'm glad I got my sub in and received an issue which I am slowly reading from cover to cover. Loving the article on race trucks.
Hope you don't get too bored and manage ok Keith!

It's a great story - when I was offered the feature, I leapt at it. Very much an untold part of Porsche life...

Fortunately I live in a beautiful area of the country and there are loads of walks to do, which is great for my cardio-vascular health and pre-diabetes! Sorting out my photo files, planning features, taking up my pencils and drawing pens once more (maybe get back into botanical art, too...). Oh yes, plenty to do to stop boredom setting in. But tell you what, can't wait for the pressure of a magazine deadline again!

Now, if we can only persuade the idiots to abide by the rules so this unreal period can come to an end sooner rather than later...

Now, where's that corkscrew?

Enjoyed the current issue. Why had I never heard of Russell Lewis before? Anyone that goes to Stuttgart and impresses the German's has to be good
