I mentioned recently that I was working on a secret, blog-related project, well this is it (drumroll):

Crying All The Way To The Chip Shop — The Magazine.


Regular readers of this here blog will know that I’m often moaning about digital technology and how it lacks the tactile, touchy-feely warmth of “real” things like books and records, so — using my day-job skills as a designer — I’ve gone and produced a “real” thing, a “Greatest Hits” collection of my favourite blog posts (some rewritten) presented in a 32-page, full-colour magazine, featuring…

…lots to read…


…lovely photos by Ally…


…records…


…more records…


… and pin-ups!

This was made using HP’s terrific on-demand printing service MagCloud and can be yours for a measly $6.75 (plus shipping), BUT if you buy before May 8th it’s an even more measly $5.15. You lucky people. And for those of you that way inclined you can also buy a digital version for viewing on your fancy tablet things and computer whatnots.

So go ahead, treat yourself and buy it here (where you can also see a preview of the whole thing), you won’t regret it. At least I hope you won’t, the damn thing took me bloody ages to do.
