  • The paper attempts to widen its distribution, but receives the brush-off from The Edinburgh Bookshop and from WH Smith – the former even implying that the paper is litter. Meanwhile, it was Gay Pride in London, with page 5 given over to a spread of photos of the small march and the subsequent picnic in Hyde Park. Glenys Parry contributes a short story about gay love in 2032. Reviews include Janis Joplin In Concert and  Gone with the Wind.

  • Samaritans is misspelled Samaratians in the headline on page 8.
