Hi All,
As a consequence of having my loft insulated,(F.O.C., thanks to all those generous taxpayers - but let`s not go there!), I had to clear the attic.
Garage floor is now cluttered with 258 backnumbers of PBO. 1990 - 2011, inclusive(only 6 copies missing). 1998 - 2002 are in binders.
If I cannot find a use for them, they will have to go to the tip, as SWMBO is getting fractious.
Any ideas? They are very heavy, so would be expensive to post.
Stewart.

I assume you don't buy it? Other than the annual winterising article, on which they do attempt to put a different slant each time, I find the content of PBO to be remarkably varied, with almost no repetition. Having contributed a couple of items myself, I know they are unique. The series of pieces by Dave Berry (Whiteoaks7 on these forums) have been brilliant - where else, or when else in PBO, have there been articles on these subjects, electronic equipment manufacture, DIY anodising and many more? The Hantu Biru rebuild is interesting and different, highlighting many topics that I have not seen before and some of the wooden boat building/refurbishing/maintenance articles are highly technical and again unique.
