I got my November issue in Canada near the beginning of October. The return address was in Ontario, but the label insert had the name of the German post office. No stamp or anything else. I wonder if for some reason the issues were routed through Germany first? If so, maybe this is why the new issue is already in Britain? Just guessing and wondering.

I know many years ago any of my friends who had subscriptions to MR usually let them drop because our hobby shops and newsstands would get their copies several weeks before theirs arrived in the mail. Mine have been arriving a week or more before they appear anywhere else locally.

Reminds me of an old Stephen Wright comedy routine.

Hey Dougal,
That's not very good. You mean to say I get my MR delivered way over here in the UK before you do in PA? Maybe it's all down to our special relationship with the US via Tony Blair!
And Bob, yeah I'm sure that's what it means. Maybe it's all down to British humour.

Wonderful! Look at page 14 in New Products in the December MR under 'HO Structures'. The 180-foot single track riveted through truss bridge comes with 'three FULL SIZE drawings'. Wow! 180 foot long drawings! And three of them!
Sorry guys.... I thought it was so funny.[:o)]

I'm assuming they refer to the full sized HO scale model, in full HO size, or about 25 inches long.
