    I had a few pleasantries with Venice yesterday re obtaining copies of The Guardian newspaper.

    I visited my newsagent to try to get back copies, unfortunately they are picked up for re-cycling by the Guardians agents the same night, so no joy there.

    I phoned their HO, they told me that back-copies are available at a price from a company in London who will post them to you, (they specialise in papers on the day that you were born, that sort of thing) telephone 020 8763 6363. Outside UK, dial +4420 8763 6363

    There is an alternative. Along with most British broadsheets, they appear abroad, including the US, 2 - 3 days after their issue date. So Mondays Guardian should be cropping up in the USA either today or tomorrow in the busier news sellers, especially in tourist areas and airport shops.

    I think it will cost about $1.50.

    By the way, don't ask for the Manchester Guardian, its now just known as The Guardian.

    Thanks for the reminder regarding late issues appearing in other countries. Several newsagents in my city regularly have copies of overseas newspapers, so I will ring around and see what I can find.

    Thanks Eman!

    G'day Eman and Prisca,

    Me too!

    I was thinking of checking in the next issue of The Guardian Weekly which is distributed in most large newsagents in metropolitan areas of NSW.

    But Prisca if you source a copy of The Guardian will you 'guard' it for me to view too? I'd like to at least get a photo-copy to show some folks we know.

    Cheers,
    Ozzie

    Many thanks, if you could do the same for anyone else that requests it, I'm sure that it would be appreciated.

    I haven't a clue how to forward a file!
