The best way these days is to sign up to something like Usenext which costs I think about 8 or 9 Euro a month but then you can find lots of stuff especially in the music groups where occasionally I found stuff that I couldn't find elsewhere (out of print stuff etc).

Crazy to think how the internet has changed in the past 20 years. I remember doing a computer course back in the mid nineties and getting on the internet for the first time, discovering the CyberPenguin as it was then, and well the rest is history Hell of a lot of things happened since then, but inducting Dave Walker into the HOF isn't one of them!
