A few months back I applied for a reporter post on one of Europe's oldest listings magazine: What's on in London and was knocked back because I wasn't available to start right away - down to me wanting to complete my journalism diploma.
And how happy I am that this was the choice I made. Today it has emerged in MediaGuardian that Strand Magazines, publisher of the ill-fated copy, has gone bust and left numerous contributors thousands of pounds out of pocket.
I just hope these journalists are duly compensated. To be honest I really wasn't impressed with the printed copy I saw. Timeout for now, has cornered the listings market and something slightly more impressive will have to emerge to steal the limelight.
