Excellent – look forward to reading it. Well done!

None of the payment methods are available to me.

Check your card isn’t geoblocked or restricted so that it cannot be used for online purchases. This is increasingly common, to help prevent fraud.

My MasterCard is blocked to not function in any purchases where I’m not physically present (to enter the PIN, or pay-by-bonk), however my bank offers an app that can generate a virtual MasterCard number that is authorised for the one retailer it is initially given to, for a specific amount of money (that is defined when the number is created).
Your bank ought to offer something similar (if not, all why).

Hi when will it arrive in the Netherlands ?. I have a subscription.

Hi David, we offer bank transfer, cheque or PayPal on the site. Is there a method you’d prefer? Open to suggestions!

As for your other questions, back issues are available for some volumes and, yes, Archive is RISC OS’s only printed magazine. Email me at gavin@archivemag.co.uk with your requirements and I’ll try to make it work.

Hi when will it arrive in the Netherlands ?. I have a subscription.

All copies (hundreds!) will have been dispatched in the next 48 hours or so. Non-UK subscribers usually receive theirs a week to ten days later.

And the “non paper abo”? I miss a link ;-)

Just dropped onto the doormat! Excellent.

Hopefully now received :-)

I could purchase a money order, if your bank can cash it. It would be in the correct currency (Pounds UK correct?). If that is an option.

Email sent to David. Summary was: payment accepted, method mostly irrelevant, whatever works for you :-)

We are already looking forward to Archive 25:3, with some fantastic articles on the way. Subscribe today and start your subscription from any (recent) issue.

It has. Thanks a lot. Very nice issue.

I wonder if StrongEd could modified to add a code in place of line numbers in Yellow Pages – so written lines could be checked for accuracy – bit like was used in C64 mags for entering in Progs?

Mag was a little ray of sunshine :-)

Surely it is simpler to download the relevant file from the web site?

(For context, for anyone who hasn’t seen the latest issue, Archive has revived the traditional Yellow Pages, as seen in Acorn User and the like. It will always only occupy two pages. And note that this issue was actually four pages longer than the previous issue.)

Each program will be on the website (website currently being rewritten), but the idea is that they’re short enough that people may enjoy typing them in. I received a lovely email from a father who typed the listing in with his ten year old son – both really enjoyed the result.

Sprow’s ARM snippet was a nice challenge :-)

Could have made Yellow Pages.
