Last Issue of Just Finches
At the recent 'Finches 17' held in Brisbane we announced that Issue 52 would be our last. There are a number of factors that led us to making this decision including our age, health, as well as the continual rise in postage also a consideration. Many have expressed their disappointment at this but have also expressed appreciation for the magazine over a period of nearly 15 years. We have some expressions of interest in taking over the magazine whether in its present format or another. We will keep you informed if anything results from this. Thank you to everybody for your support over the years, especially those that regularly contributed articles to the magazine.
We are slowly working through all of our subscribers to sort out any magazines owed to them but if you have been missed or have any problem please get in touch by phone or email. We will do our best to resolve anything. We hope subscribers will avail themselves of any issue they have missed or if you would like an extra copy of a certain issue in lieu of any magazines left in their subscription.
The website will continue to operate and all the back issues of the magazine will be available through the website. LOOK OUT FOR FUTURE ARTICLES ON THE WEBSITE
