You know, like the ones they use on 'have i got news for you?'.

i'll go first.

i subscribe to 'Grout' magazine. it is published 3 times a year. It's about mosaics and the first copy i received had a picture of DH with DS1 in the backpack at the opening of an exhibition.

I subscribe to skin deep tattoo and piercing magazine.

I don't subscribe because I can't as it's a US title, and it's not really niche, just very middle-class, and saddo-ish and basically about cleaning and etiquette, but I love Real Simple magazine. I love the design.

Dh gets Trout & Salmon.

I get Psychologies ..... and Civil Service Motoring Association Magazine!

Saga next, for sure.

I almost forgot, my SIL gave me a subscription to a Malaysian food magazine for Christmas '07. I think that's pretty niche if you live in London. It was full of glowing restaurant reviews, mostly for places in Kuala Lumpur, and recipes. Unfortunately they had a couple of European special issues (which is suppose is exotic to a Malaysian), one entirely about stews and casseroles and another all about pasta (dull).

We just get Horse and Hound and Absolute Horse magazine. However I do subscribe to "Stationary Engine" as a present for my dad!

MrsSchmaltzyMerryHenry · 13/02/2009 14:03

PMSL at 'Absolute Horse'! What a great title!

As card-carrying CAMRA members , we get "What's Brewing" through the post on a quarterly basis. It's very good for spotting some quite impressive beards.
I don't drink beer, but DH feels it's our "duty" to support real ales.

I forgot, we also get Adoption UK and Be My Parent, although we won't be renewing Be My Parent as we've been matched with a little girl.

WomanInAnAttic · 13/02/2009 15:08

I get Ace magazine.

Kathyis6incheshigh · 13/02/2009 15:14

Classic Boat

Also we are members of the Arthur Ransome Society so we get their journal Mixed Moss.

Kathy, I just re-read "Winter Holiday" - it was one of my morning sickness reads - and really enjoyed. If this baby were a boy, I had a hankering to call him Roger - but found out yesterday it's a girl.

Sorry for thread hijack!

LynetteScavo · 14/02/2009 16:12

DH gets Autosport and at one point had every copy from the past 14 years.

dragonbutter · 15/02/2009 13:32

What's Ace magazine?
