Remember Mag-a Zone?  The site went through problems with Facebook, and lost all of it's uploads.  Well I'm pleased to say the owners have now started to upload the issues to Flickr, so if you go to the site, you'll find lots of the links work again, including Look-in rivals TV TOPS and BEEB.
There is also an amazing Smash Hits section for fans (like me) of that, and almost every comic and magazine title is covered, just a great site, glad to see it back.

oops!...this is becoming a regular thing :)...

The eagle eye amongst you will have noticed that 1973 - No3 had no Gilbert O'Sullivan feature, I had updated the issue with the feature Dan had sent me and went and uploaded the original instead...!!  Thanks to John Robertson for pointing it out, the issue has been replaced now.

1973 No.3 and 1981 No.6 (full issues)...

Waiting on a fix for No.2 from Dan, so we move to No.3, for which the Gilbert O'Sullivan feature is Dan's, and also we have No.6 from 1981 and Dan provided the Bedders poster for this one...
