Second issue of Uni Magazine is in the post!

Copies to subscribers were put in the post on Thursday 16th November, the claimed delivery time is up to 7 working days for Europe and 10 working days for the rest of the world. Of course with Christmas coming it may be a little slower…
Thanks
Mike

My copy arrived this morning Mike, so looks like it’s better than seven days within the UK :slight_smile:

Ooh, that’s pretty nice, I’m looking forward to Issue 2, I hope I won’t have to fight my brother over who gets to read it first :smiley: that’s me obviously though. Great job Mike!

Well I lost the fight, my non-riding wife had the first read, and took the Buff/calender, something to do with Christmas presents :astonished:

Keith

Got mine this morning. Cheers guys. Currently trying to sus out the buff. Should keep me amused for a while.

Mine too. Calendar’s good, shame about the purple on the Buff. What’s this “Fall 2006” stuff about on the front? I thought it was supposed to be the “Autumn 2006” issue.

any pictures of the buff?

if they were mailed out on 11/16, and you received your copy today, 11/18, that’s only 2 days, not seven. But i think what you meant by “better” was actually “faster” or “sooner?” Here in the US, using the phrase “better then 7 days”, would usually mean “longer than 7 days”. I hope our issues get here soon too, but I have a feeling it’ll take a bit longer to get to the US. CAn’t wait! :slight_smile:

same!

lol, I can’t find my first one:(

Mine came today. Which was really nice cos I also had a disappointing letter from the university. Two pages into the mag I thought, sod 'em and I’m no longer upset.

I like the calender.

I thought I might give the buff as a christmas pressie but sam opened it and showed me how to wear it, I dare say it will come in handy in the bitter winter wind.

And my lovely lilac coker (mark 1) is in for the second issue in a row. Oh, er, that’s all of them then. :smiley:

You Americans are weird… “better” means “more good” - surely you would say it is “better” if something gets to you faster than expected?
Weirdos :wink:

Anyway, hope it gets to you quickly - it looks good (although I haven’t read any of it yet, only had a quick flick though).

Danny - what’s wrong with purple? Or do you mean it’s a bit lacking in contrast with the black background? I like black and purple :slight_smile:

Rob

Thats how I understood that too.

In the context in which it was written, “better than 7 days” most assuredly would indicate “longer” than, not “shorter” or “faster”. And the operative word you used, “more” would also be indicative of “more” time, in “more than 7 days”. It really depends on context. For example, the phrase: “the better part of an hour”, refers to more than half, not less.

Here you go:

My wife loves black and purple. I’ve always thought of purple as rather a girly colour. And yes, it is rather lacking in contrast.

Still, it doesn’t hurt to have a third Buff, and I /have/ already worn it.

You’re not wrong there. I don’t think they’ll ever learn to speak English :wink:

So, is it available from unicycle.com now too?

Lol, I’m loving the mad photoshop skills in the calendar.

alright! thanks.

looking forward to it!

Yey!

Mine arrived today, a fun read as ever. Lots of content to browse through! I’m already looking forward to the next one though.

The buff is nice, as is the calendar!
