Yep - I've printed it and had a quick flick through it ( I am meant to be working) and it looks pretty damn good !

I'll be reading it on the plane tomorrow.

Well done Joel, Faye Mitch, and the other contributors.

Editing and layout on the sample pages looks great.

Just so you know, the website does not render well on IE 7 or 8. I'd hazard a guess your target audience isn't tech savvy neo's, your website stats will probably agree 80% of visitors will be using IE, so pretty important to get it looking right.

Also the article on the apricot tree makes me want to plant one now :D I have some prunus already, but plums mmmm apricot

HI EB
Read the first addition and found it informative and a good read. You must spend a lot of time in front of your computer
Looking forward to the next AP mag
