Mine has just arrived and looks like a good read. It is a shame that there doesn't appear to be a feature in relation to the picture on the front cover.

Does anybody else have pages missing from their journal? Mine is missing pages from the end of the Rowley article and the beginning of the Sclerocactus article.

No pages missing though an oddly placed staple appears between pp 162 & 163, suggesting something went awry. Haven't read any of it yet, but looks good!
