powerrabbit Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 This publication for the moment may be dead but it has certainly not been buried and forgotten. I have been in contact with Roger Smith from Old Pond and he has told me that they have been having great difficulty in making any contact with the 'new owner', Julian Bowden to accertain whether or not it will be resurected in the future. I have asked Roger to keep in contact and keep me informed of the situation. When I know anything I will let you all know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Interested Spectator Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I know there have been more that a few difficulties with this magazine with both the previous and current owner. There is a small but loyal following out there for this publication but the new owner does not appear to have given this much respect, and there has most defiantly been a lack of communication. If it does re-appear i would certainly take a lot of convincing to subscribe again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 If there is enough interest in it, maybe it will come back with the original owner but under a different title, that would probably be the only way of ressurecting it without having to go through legalities of ownership and copyright but I am no expert on this by any imagination, we will have to wait and see.

farmernick06 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I really hope that the magazine does come back, i got there a bit late really the first magazine i bought was the last edition and i was shocked by the standard \ \ But im hoping that this guy sells it on or really has a good crack at it, it's got huge potential \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerrabbit Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 In my communication with the former owner I mentioned the Forum so I hope that he will 'tune in' and read our comments and perhaps even reply to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGEL FORD Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I spoke with Julian at Maidstone again earlier in the month and he said he's had problems with the printers and was hoping to get the next one out soon, but that's what he also told me in April!
