I hope so as ds1 got a years subscription at Christmas! I was looking for it before Christmas and couldn't find it in WHSmith - that was the only place I'd seen it.

You can get it on subscription through Red House Books.

No - still available - we get it weekly on subscription. Kids 11 & 9 really enjoy it.
We always do the crossword and suduku together if we're out at a pub/ cafe etc at the weekend.

When DS had his 11+ interview he ended up talking at length with the interviewer about something he'd read in FN the day before - I'm sure it helped him get his place!

It is still available in my WHSmiths, I bough a copy last Saturday. Maybe ask if you can order it in? Or as others have suggested you can subscribe.

Hmmm - glad to be reminded of this.

Wonder if they'll post overseas?
