The EMLRA Newsletter is, in the words of the past Editor Wayne Davies, "published regularly on an irregular basis every two months, printed as and when its seen fit and delivered when it suits". The current Editor, Mike Allmey, has a different policy - it will be due the moment it arrives at your door and not before.

The Newsletter is also designed to be big enough to act as a coaster for up to three mugs. If rolled up in a suitable fashion, the budding megalomaniac could use it as a loud-hailer. If applied in the same format to an alternative orifice, it is just as effective as an ear trumpet. Ideal for puppy training. A fly swat perhaps. Some people are even suspected of reading it. Whoever these people are, would they please stop?

The Newsletter is printed in full glorious technicolour on fully chromed 100gsm A4. The electronic PDF version is free to paid up members and is emailed out at the same time the paper issue goes to the printers so members opting for this, er, option get to see it a week or so ahead of everyone alse.

A full archive going right back to Newsletter No. 1 is available in PDF format to members.
