I had a similar experience - asked several times for Sue James to respond: several others equalled my feelings that the magazine is shallow, predictable with absurd articles. In 12 months, I found only one item of real interest, so did not renew my subscription. The editorial team could not care less about the one or two [but increasing] subscribers who opt out. This is my first time back on the forum since February. Reading the superficial and daft threads in the forum makes me quite sad that there are obviously a huge number of women who have nothing better to do all day. Oh well, it's their life.
