REPLY TO THE POEM KIDS
Oh Poem Boy and Poem Girl
I'd love to get your poems then hurl
Them into the night sky so blue
And let the others read them too.
They'd read them then cheer for more
Poems, poems, poems galore
Then you'd start making dosh
Getting snooty, getting posh.
Just carry on with the 'Zine,
Then you can be all mine
A Really, Really Sensible Person
Dodgy rhyme there!
BAND REVIEW: THE WONDERSTUFF
The Wonderstuff were one of the best groups around. Nearly every song they wrote was excellent and listening to each album was Heaven.
Being a recently converted fan, I am devastated by their announcement to split. I saw them in Bradford and it was the best experience of my life!
They will be sorely missed by me and all their other fans.

Rest in peace...
WE'LL NEVER DESERT OUR LOYAL FANS!
TV REVIEW: BROOKSIDE, C4
WOAAAH! What a show!
With Max "the sweetie" Farnham, Mr Nasty-Nice guy Barry Grant and "I deserved that kick in the doo-dahs" Simon, we have a tumbling thunderbolt full of fun plus the gun, a lesbian mum and who's the father of Bev's son?
Makes you want to go out and buy a semi-detached in a cul-de-sac. Orr-'ey!

It gives 'Enders its ideas!
THE CRIMINAL (IN)JUSTICE BILL
Do people realise what an effect the introduction of the Criminal Justice Bill will have on them?
It is being pushed as a law and order bill with the intention of crime prevention. However, it CREATES criminals.
It ignores rapists, murderers and specifically targets young people who are posing any opposition to any injustices in this society.

DEAR 'ZINE,
It's quite simple, really. Pulp are really, really good. And then, so are Blur.
But just to add a shallow dimension to all this, despite Jarvis Cocker's numerous charms, attractions and sexiness, Blur have an advantage in that Alex James, Blur's bassist, is the sexiest man on earth.
Long live British pop!
