I have an idea, (oh stop sniggering at the back :).

I liked the idea of putting several issues in PDF format on a CD Rom that
you're doing atm. I might even get one myself as some older issues are
getting very dog eared or in my case cats attacking them. :)

Would it be possible to be able to download the current and maybe back
issues in PDF format from the web site, minimal overheads and people could
pay by credit/debit card. That way anyone who couldn't afford a subscription
or had difficulty in getting a copy of the printed version wouldn't miss an
issue..... And yes I appreciate that you wouldn't get the CD ROM. Though I
suppose those lucky buggers with fast connections could buy that online too.

OK that's my idea for the day, I'm off to the pub. :)
