Orienteering Today

[EddieH]

Am I being hasty, or are the alarm bells ringing again. Only 1 and a half months to half way through the year and there is no sign of issue 2. Does anyone know anything about what is going on?

Got an email today from thir Marketing Director. I think all subscribers should get one from reading it. It says that their editor (Jan) has been ill and this has affected work on the magazine, but it will son be finished and sent out. Good news then.

[EddieH]

Let's hope so. After last year's fiasco I was still prepared to resubscribe, but if they mess it up again how many will?

For those who don't get Orienteering Today, it is a great read.

Its an amazing read! It sits by the toilet in my flat and my housemates are all very interested by the 'Concentration Monster' Daniel Hubmann, Hannys Top 10 tips and how to sprint round Barcelona. The next issue better come soon as they have been asking me for it for weeks! Its great, they have so much better understanding of the sport now. Doesnt stop them thinking I'm crazy, but maybe thats just me

[EddieH]

Its now some 3 weeks later and still no sign - it'll soon be an issue a month - unlikely I think. Does anyone have any further information?

[Dave]

no information on the website suggesting any reasons

at least last year we got 3 issues before they packed it in, pretty annoying considering how good a read it usually is.

New edition should arrive very shortly apparently.

Subs to run into next year.

[Jethro]

Will arrive soon..........if they don't get caught up in the postal strike!!!!

[Dave]

Am I right in thinking, people who subscribed for this year, will get this next issue and all next year without doing anything?
...provided they don't go bust again...

[EddieH]

Well Mikey I'd like to know where you get your information from. Another 2 weeks gone - what does "soon" mean?

Or have I just not got mine? or as seems more likely is it all hot air?

According to the web site (http://www.orienteeringtoday.com/index. ... 409&id=257) the magazine is printed and being posted tomorrow (20th October). We await with bated breath.

[mikey]

They've got examples of the copy on their webpage, so it has definitely been printed (and it looks like it should be a good read).

Just a case of patience now, Eddie. After all, after waiting for so long, what difference does a few more days make.

[EddieH]

That sounds really positive. For the last few days I have been unable to access their website - I'm glad its not a general failure.

[EddieH]

The publishers claim to have posted an issue over a week ago. It's certainly not arrived here. Has anyone seen it? What postal service are they using???

[mikey]

It's coming via Melbourne.
