We're excited about issue twelve! It's arriving with UK subscribers already and will be hitting WHSmith and our independent stockists by Monday at the latest.

This issue, we all tracked down our namesakes. Our editor-in-chief, Derek 'Des' Tan, contacted every Derek Tan he could find on Facebook, for example. (Spoiler: it's a more common name than you'd think.) 

We also laughed and cried at Lisa Jarmin's interviews with people about artefacts left behind by their ex-lovers. Finally, we sent Max Knight off to the park to see if people looked like their dogs.

Don't forget that, to celebrate the issue, we'll be watching Almost Famous tomorrow night. We still have tickets left and, if you book today, you've got the chance to win a free subscription and two drinks at the bar.
