Hello
Silly question; but can you purchase the KG magazine in the shops?
I have hunted high and low
Thanks
Jo

Smiths and the evil Tesco both sell it, as does my local newsagent, probably because of its proximity to the allotment. In fact I keep meaning to ask him to reserve a copy as I'd rather my money went to him than the previous mentioned.

OOh you know i checked for it in big T and they never have it!
I think I'll ask my local PO/shop to stock it for me!
Thank you
Jo

Only WHS have it here but why don't you subscribe? You'll get it a few days earlier and there may be subscriber offers too?

oooh how kind
are you sure?

Yes - as it's you. I'll send you a few of the old ones and the last two new ones, so you can see the improvements. The deal is - you post them back eventually as I have every copy since KG started. Feel free to photocopy anything you want to keep.
If you let me know what topics you are particularly interested in, I'll go through my magazines to find ones you might find useful.
Hope that helps Jopsy.

I get my KG from the local Garden Centre (Sanders), admittedly its one of those plastic, large over priced commercial garden centres, but KG is still the same price
Compo

Hello Compo - I think we were talking about the price of fuel rather than KG...........

What's evil about Tesco's?
A lot of farmers could tell you why. Or read Shopped by Joanna Blythman, or What's Not On The Label by Felicity Lawrence - not just Tesco's, the other big supermarkets too.
And yes I am a total hypocrite because I do shop at supermarkets - don't like 'em though.
