Should I have a badge on my PS? 
I didn't know that being a contributor had such great fringe benefits

Sorry, Frenchbean, I've never been to your PS, and you weren't presented as a new writer to me back then by Rich but started out as a Regular' right from the start, I just assumed you had written for the Post and had a badge for ages.
I'll email the eds.

You can blame him as much as you want but it's still me who overlooked it. 
Thanks to the eds it is amended now, though, and I'll amend the editorial accordingly.

That's how it should work, Smudger, but sometimes, nobody realises that a badge is due.

Oi! Just found this while sorting out the Back Pages. The cheek of it, young Frenchbean; I offer you a Regular berth on 
for your Witters, say nice things about you, make you a lovely banner image and this is the thanks I get 
The blame, of course, rests with one Mr 2. Legs.

Hello Skanks 
At least you're being talked about It demonstrates a certain.... .... notoriety 
By the way - would you like me to re-write the intro to my Witter, as I'm about to move country? And I'll adapt the latest Weekly Witter for you and send to the post's email address.
(love you really)

We'll certainly need it changed from the next issue onwards, but I don't think we'll apply it retrospectively. Most of the time, I think it's better to keep past articles as 'moments in time'. We will divide the archive into Australia and NZ sections as well.
As for the next one, I think we do need a bit of a recap of recent events, however long or short, because you've had a bit of upheaval since the last full issue!

Yup, I agree with all of that
However, as you can imagine, time is a bit fragmented at the moment, so sitting down to write an update might be beyond me for a week or two. When's the next deadline? I'll plan something for that (if it's not tomorrow )

I'm sure I typed something last night about there being no pressure to do anything for this issue. I certainly meant to 
Whenever you're ready, really. The deadline after this is a fortnight on Sunday, the 21st.
