Ok I have just done some quick calculating on Excel Issue in Newsagents, Issue Depatched To Us, And then a date from when I was sent Issue 3 which I got the day before it hit the newsagents shelf! So My results are as follows:

Issue - Newsagent -- Our Date -- Despatch Date
26 -- 28/09/2010 --- 21/09/2010 --- 05/10/2010
25 -- 21/09/2010 --- 14/09/2010 ---
24 -- 14/09/2010 --- 07/09/2010 ---
23 -- 07/09/2010 --- 31/08/2010 ---
22 -- 31/08/2010 --- 24/08/2010 --- 03/09/2010
21 -- 24/08/2010 --- 17/08/2010 ---
20 -- 17/08/2010 --- 10/08/2010 ---
19 -- 10/08/2010 --- 03/08/2010 ---
18 -- 03/08/2010 --- 27/07/2010 --- 09/08/2010
17 -- 27/07/2010 --- 20/07/2010 ---
16 -- 20/07/2010 --- 13/07/2010 ---
15 -- 13/07/2010 --- 06/07/2010 ---
14 -- 06/07/2010 --- 29/06/2010 --- 02/07/2010
13 -- 29/06/2010 --- 22/06/2010 ---
12 -- 22/06/2010 --- 15/06/2010 ---
11 -- 15/06/2010 --- 08/06/2010 ---
10 -- 08/06/2010 --- 01/06/2010 --- 04/06/2010
9 --- 01/06/2010 --- 25/05/2010 ---
8 --- 25/05/2010 --- 18/05/2010 ---
7 --- 18/05/2010 --- 11/05/2010 ---
6 --- 11/05/2010 --- 04/05/2010 --- 07/05/2010
5 --- 04/05/2010 --- 27/04/2010 ---
4 --- 27/04/2010 --- 20/04/2010 ---
3 --- 20/04/2010 --- 13/04/2010 --- 13/04/2010
2 --- 13/04/2010 ---
1 --- 06/04/2010 ---

As you can see from my despatch dates things have just got later and later. Newsagents get there Issues usually the day before, wholesalers who supply the newsagent, days before, I know this first hand as I have collected and delivered to them 26 tons at a time!

The Bold dates really should be our despatch dates working on 4 weekly, (next despatch should be 28/09/2010!) so theres something wrong somewhere!!!! Thoughts Welcome?????

Happy Building, Russ

Ok, so I was out one day with the newsagents dates, This still does not explain why those of us who subscribe get our issues sent a week after the last one hits the shelf, something wrongs somewhere as over the space of the deliverys we wpould have gone from 1 week in front to 2 weeks behind !!!

ie Issue 3 at the newsagents 20/04/2010 Despatched to us 13/04/2010
Issue 22 at the newsagents 01/09/2010 Despatched to us 03/09/2010 + 10 Days Delivery!!
Issue 19 at the newsagents 10/08/2010 still not recieved 15/09/2010 !!!!

I Think its about time DeAg pulled there fingers out from up there a****s and got this sorted they need to posting issues to us about a week in front of the newsagents, Issue 3 was sent a week before! then we get tham about the same time, or at least in the same week!

Had my rant now Thanks.
Happy Building, Russ
