I have about 4 or 5 years worth of the 80's eagle at home. If you like maybe I could post you a few scans of Bloodfang. I liked the Dan Dare period when he teamed up with a kid from the 80's, zapper or something and a blue treen and a female and some guy who was slowly rotting away. Or that other time when he went to a planet where animals fought insects.I also enjoyed doomlord, I started reading eagle when monster and the thirteenth floor joined from Scream. And I stopped reading around 1990 when it turned really crap and had back pages with new kids on the block etc.. it was trying to be like look-in I think but it didn't really work. Remember Manix?

There was an excellent story in a local Edinburgh paper earlier this year.. a postie had been off sick for a short time and someone from royal mail visited him, thousands of letters were found in his home,all over the place,stuffed in drawers etc..
But the thing is this guy had so much mail to deliver basically he couldn't deliver it all, so he held on to it and fully intended to deliver it at a later date. This chap was actually 100% honest as none of the mail had been opened or tampered with, he didn't hold on to it for any immoral/illegal reasons. There was some quote from his mum saying 'he's a good lad really'.
I'm not sure what happened to him, but I know the courts realised he wasn't stealing as such. I kinda felt sorry for him. But it conjurs up images of a fat postie in his armchair surrounded by countless envelopes and maybe a few pizza boxes, who basically couldn't be arsed delivering.

Well my newsagent didn't have my latest prog yesterday.I work in a bank's mailroom in Edinburgh(where I live)and this week due to lack of mail I'm almost 6 hours short of my 35 hours, I have a wife and young daughter to support so I'd rather have the money/hours than time off. Personally I couldn't care if they did sack 'em all, give their jobs to people who actually appreciate having a permanent 'secure'? job. I've been working under temporary contracts for years and I'd love to have a permanent job, these people don't know how lucky they are. By the way these 'wildcat' strikes are nothing to do with me!
Seriously tho' given the choice I'd be on the side of the workers, but I don't see why some dispute in London should affect Scotland and the rest of the UK.
