I used to be a regular subscriber to your magazine. However, advancing age (74) has meant my OTB rating has fallen dramatically. I have not played OTB for several years but still play online.
Your magazine is still good value. I bought a sample copy as I noticed Mike Read, who I know, was now writing for you.
