Hi all

A question for subscribers past or present: having subscribed to singletrack mag since issue #33, I've got many back issues stacked up in the spareroom. The trouble is that we need to free up the space.

So what do you do with your old back issues when you need to get rid of them? Are there any clubs/societies that would be grateful to receive them?

Thanks

Nigel

I have to confess I threw my complete collection in the recycling bin last year - taking up too much space!

@footflaps: yeah, I guess the recycling bin is the fallback option...

@ton: thanks.

Anyone interested in my back issue collection? Free to a good home, all I ask for you to cover postage. Let me know which issues you're interested in.

otherwise, it's off to the [s]tower[/s] recycling bin!

thanks

Nigel

Likewise, I've got a ton of issues scattered about the place, going back to issue 1 (somewhere). I don't need them cos I've got a digital sub, so if anyone wants them then contact me (email in profile).

Extending the topic:

During some recent building work I emptied the loft of some boxes of old MBUK, MBR and assorted other magazines from the period 1998->2005.

I haven't yet had the heart to simply recycle them as they might hold some interest for someone. Just seeing them again generates some nostalgia for me...

So, what to do with these?

Thanks, Ian

Most recently mine got a ceafeine fix from a felled cup of cappuccino = recycling bin.
Normally, they get dropped off at the doctors surgery for the reading pleasure of folk in the waiting room - might not suit everyone but has to be better that readers digest etc......

Also - men's ward of the local hospital - they were very happy to see the ones I dropped in years ago, when I last needed the services of said establishment.
