Yours to control

Manage everything from one link

Every subscription email we send contains your own private link. Follow it to skip an issue, change your address, update your card, pause for a while, or cancel — no account, no password, no phoning anyone.

Moving house between issues? Change the address any time before dispatch and the next copy follows you.

Worth collecting

Made to keep, not to recycle

Each issue is designed, published and printed in Scotland in a single run, and once an issue sells through it isn't reprinted. Subscribers never have to think about it — the shelf simply grows twice a year.

Twelve issues in, the early ones are already scarce.

Good to know

Questions, answered

When will I be charged?

+

Only when an issue is about to ship — shortly before dispatch each April and October. There's nothing to pay when you sign up mid-cycle, and nothing in between issues.

Which issue will I get first?

+

Your subscription starts with the next issue to be published. Subscribe today and the next issue is the first through your door — if you'd like the current one too, add it to the same order.

Can I pause, skip or cancel?

+

Yes, any of the three, at any time, through the private link in every subscription email. There's no minimum term and no fee for leaving.

Do you post overseas?

+

Yes, worldwide from Scotland. Postage is calculated for your address and shown before you confirm, so there are no surprises.

How does the gift subscription work?

+

You pay once for the next two or four issues, sent to any address you choose. It doesn't auto-renew — after the last issue is posted it simply ends, though many recipients carry it on themselves.
