I think it's out mid this month, Neil should be able to confirm the day though. The pictures for the mag look nice and sharp due to better lighting in the second shoot, better than the original previews.

Cheers, Ed

Delay at printers with binding meant we didn't get copies in the office on Friday as planned, but I got a advanace approval copy sent to my home address on Saturday morning and the feature has printed up well. Subscribers should get their copies Monday morning, if the Christmas post does its job...

[]Cheers Gary, i found myself doing the same!

Chuffed to bits with the feature came out really well. Just realised how out of date my website is so that should be updated hopefully by later on today. [8D]
