Just about finished reading it - glad they told me as I wouldn't have noticed - the changes are very discreet. Still it suits me - still got the feel of a comfy pair of slippers & a great way to while away time while it remains too cold to venture out.

I had noticed that they had taken on board people's comments about needing better contrast when they were using coloured print on coloured backgrounds.
It is much easier to read now. I've not read much of it yet so will have to look out for other changes.

I've just read mine too - I subscribe and this month had 4 packets of seed free. It was supposed to be 5 packets but they forgot to put the lettuce seed in. This morning I had a very nice e-mail from the editor to apologise for not including the fifth packet of seed. How's that for personal service.

Very pleased with the mag.

P.S. Also, I had a letter printed and received a £10 voucher from Dobies. :D

I like this magazine at a time I generally took a dislike to magazines relating to my various interests.

The sum of advertising and editorial is well balanced and though I haven't yet subscribed i'm still intending to.

Some popular-interest magazines are so full of advertising content they should be ashamed to charge for the publication. Advertising whilst useful to us for product-knowledge becomes counter-productive to the reading-enjoyement experience.

Well-done KG magazine.
