Hi Harry,
Approximately 2,000 copies of Cobra were sold at the gate of the show (it contained the show-guide), so it probably wasn’t Ferg’s copy.
It was clearly vitriolic toward Peter Fibly. However, it was the first volume of Cobra since Peter ‘resigned’. His departure was clearly newsworthy to its readers: especially as many of the past arguments have concerned the technical merits of certain Cobra kits.
I didn’t think it was that vitriolic towards CKC and, even if it was, it’s the last I have to say on the subject in general terms. There may well be more to say on the Python in the future, but that’s another story.
As to CKC: I’m pleased that we finally have honest, honourable and hard-working competition once again. Their new approach has already started to raise the standards of all the publications. That’s good for us all!
Regards,
Den.
