I dont think 1.99 is overpriced when some mags go for the four pound and over mark..

Then again didnt you once have or want a purple LONG WHEELBASE beach buggy? so clearly you know nothing...as a beach buggy must ALWAYS be short wheelbase...long wheelbase ones are just naff and look all wrong....thought everyone knows that?

I'd go with that - although 50 issues at 1.99 equates to 100 notes - and that would buy you several good books most £4 mags are monthly and thus actually equate to only 48 notes per year or 2 good books

and beach buggys should deffo be short wheel base - and preferably based on beetles or minis (old skool) - youre right everyone knows that - also unless your name is tinky winky why would you want one in purple

btw dan there is only one Z in nazi - or am i missing something with your sig ?

Blimey i think thats the third time in 2 days that eeyore has backed me up on something...i need to sit down

I do agree about the hundred notes thing...and if you gave me the hundred that i will spend in a year in one lump sure i would buy a couple books instead...but...im a skint student so i can syphon 1.99 a week out of my college petrol money ...i know its a pants mag...i also know British Wildlife is awesome...but..i like to collect pointless things...so i shall carry on.

And no...its a typo...i shall change it...cheers.

some long wheel base are rubbish and so, in fact, are some short wheel bases - there are always exceptions to every rule........

beetle base always preferable and a nice tax exempt one too....

BTW just to slate this magazine a little more, I flipped through one in my local newso - now is it just me, or are the kingfisher photos on here significantly better than in the mag?

I'm looking forward to seeing how long this thread is in three years time when the magazine ends and every one is one binder short. I would imagine the price will go up soon as well.

Happy days

I am really enjoying this magazine :......the article on the kingfishers was very informative and i learnt quite a few bits of new info ...The piece about the Hedgehogs was brilliant ....although i knew most of it .....i think many people will realise what to do with late babies and the correct food to put out etc ...very impressed for £1.99
