I received a copy in the post yesterday courtesy of colcool. Thanks, much appreciated.

Tried Smith's at Liverpool Street and Victoria stations today. No luck. It's not even on the Smiths website nor Panini's. I give up.

If anyone sees a bloke in a fedora, leather jacket and whip, that's me. Not Indiana Jones but Rotherhithe Mitch and the Elusive Bookazine.

I just hope my journeys are considered necessary during lockdown.

Yesterday's Daily Mail had an article and some images from the 1987 Bunty book which had a story about a virus affecting the world in 2020.

I searched hither and thither but with no luck. The WH Smith website doesn't list the magazine. I'm scunnered.

I'll try Sainsbury's tomorrow.

Can anyone tell me what YA stands for?

The Daily Express had celebration pull-outs on Friday, Saturday and today. I got the first two but don't buy a Sunday paper.
