I will join in with the ZRC and I hope it gets enough support, I can't believe how it has changed from what it was to what it is.


In such a short space of time as well. I mean it wasn't THAT long ago that it was funny; the new WLW was Ok for a while but now it's just like s/he can't be bothered. We shouldn't get so p*ssed off by a teletext page but it's like a piece of green belt land that Americans bought and dumped a load of Starbucks over. Sad, so very sad...

Emma the lil angel likes busted?

I know a girl called emma who worships busted.
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

OK, the red button fires the cannon, that lever is to move, but don't press the little green button. That's a secret weapon and you need ear protectors for it to be used.

It's called the Wail Ray - a high-pitched blast of S-Club 8 music...can instantly kill anyone within 1/2 a mile.
Too often we lose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. But it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap the motherf*cker upside the head.

I agree, it's got really crap lately, and the amount of times the bloody brigadier is mentioned is just pathetic. The novelty (if there in the frist place) has totally worn off now, and all emma the bloody lil angel writes about is busted. *sigh*
zine is becoming so crap, even Dr Nick is funnier. and he isn't even trying to be!!

Dr Nick is so funny though! I love the way he never actually answers the question properley and Always says what they dont want to hear! The constant book plugging is great too!

Top Dr Nick quotes
' Look after your willy and your willy will look after you'
' Braces shape your teeth not who you are'

God Bless Dr Nick!

i blame the fact that the e-mail address is given out on page one every day now - and nothing else - you used to have to wait and we'd get told the address every now and again and that would mean you needed some sort of determination to get on there, but now everyone can see it all the time moan moan moan
