RATE: .60p each for 3 or more. Sold

GIVE ME BACK
3
ppd .80//€2/$2
It's that new post-HeartattaCk
zine and has very similar format and content so of course it's
worth reading. I expect to be distributing this from now on. Their
website is here.
MORGENMUFFEL
15 .60p/ppd .£1//€2/$2
This one is about Isy's summer adventures which are many. Like
me, she's been taking proper holidays (in addition to the catering
at activist festivals she usually does) and discovered Wainwright
for the first time on a visit to the Lake District. I'm not surprised
his stuff would appeal to her. I like it too. She's also been
to Cornwall & Latvia the latter of which sounded less appealing.
I need to be reminded that in other parts of the world, nazis
at gigs is the norm. Updates about the Cowley Club were interesting
- the zine starts with an illustrated page on the ace free skool
they've got going. There is a familiarly depressing section on
the current situation of Brighton's Cowley Club social centre
which is struggling in many ways and has faced everything from
volunteer theft to attacks by teenagers and financial difficulties.
MORGENMUFFEL
16 .80p/ppd .£1//€2/$2
The Anarchist Teapot caters at the G8 in Rostock and the climate
change protest camp at Heathrow. It's the details that are particularly
fun in this issue - like the e-coli mascot they have hanging from
the rear-view mirror of their catering van.
RE/FUSE
5 ppd .£1//€2/$2
Yes, a new issue of the beautifully designed and packed hardcore
music paper for Europe. Looks like this is a reflective issue.
More to come when I manage to read it properly.
A ZINE ABOUT
WOMENS SELF DEFENCE ppd .£1//€2/$2
The drawing on the cover tells you that Isy Morgenmuffel is a
contributor. This has several contributors from The F Word website's
Catherine Redfern to Arika, who was one of my own feminist self
defence teachers. The zine includes personal stories, statistics
and illustrated guides to a few defensive moves. A great read
and happily future issues will also be produced.
>Books<
ANOTHER DINNER IS POSSIBLE! ppd £10//€14/$14
(UK) Huge & excellent vegan cookbook by Isy Morgenmuffel &
a friend. All sorts of wonderful recipes, a whole section of Korean
food, tips & tricks, mini-essays on the ethics of various
ingredients & spiral bounding to make it all extra-useful.
I used it 3 times in the first few days I had it.
SHUT THEM DOWN!
ppd .£5//€7/$7
(UK) Subtitled, 'The G8, Gleneagles 2005 and The Movement of Movements',
this is a bang up-to-date thick book with lotsa pics and stuff.
>Other
Free Stuff<
BASIC BIKE MAINTENANCE
(UK) This is from the Cycle Touring Campaign. A nice-looking glossy
6-page guide covering the basics like lubrication, puncture repair
and adjusting brakes & gears.
>Free Vegan Sex
Stuff<
CONDOMS
I know, you had no idea that condoms weren’t vegan right?
Well it turns out that latex is a milk product but a couple of companies don't use the stuff. These are the best vegan condoms around.
