XTRO, XTRO, READ ALL ABOUT IT

Looks like P. Parsons is back in business. This glossy SF film magazine landed on our car this morning, and we didn't even reserve a copy by cutting out a coupon and spoiling the back cover.

CELESTIAL NEWSAGENT

During our annual TOMTIT seance meeting on Halloween, we achieved contact with the spirit of P. Parsons, a deceased newsagent and tobacconist. He spoke to us of his celestial newsagents shop, and the many publications he sold to the dead.

One thriving magazine he mentioned was 'TOMTIT Computer', and after a great deal of screaming, he began to send us pages from a 1984 edition via a circle of printers we'd arranged within a chalk pentagram. Sadly, Unmann-Wittering aggressively broke wind before page 2 arrived, and disrupted the proceedings. Contact with Parsons was halted as a result. 

Here is a scan of the spectral printout, which has been examined by a cross section of respected ghost hunters and paranormal experts, all of whom expressed a desire that we don't waste their time any further.

What fools these mortals be !

NOW, SCIENCE NOW

"Hallucinations without drugs, you say? Right, you have exactly thirty seconds to convince us - after that, we're calling security to have you forcibly removed"

10 SPARKS ALBUMS MUST BE WON!

In the olden days, they put groups like Sparks on the front of 'the junior TV Times', as well as a two page interview, a centre spread poster and a competition. Things were better then, even if the illustrator does appear to have 'de-Hitler-ized' Ron's moustache a bit. 

NOW, SCIENCE NOW

The inevitable return of 'Science Now'...because how many times on this weblog do we get to say 'back by popular demand'?

NOW, SCIENCE NOW

Somewhere along the line, the TOMTIT archive has managed to accrue around three thousand copies of this marvellous Marshall Cavendish publication. It will be our ongoing pleasure to share a few of the covers with you. All you have to do is look. If that's not too much trouble, that is.
