Right folks.....
Perhaps there are other reasons why something cannot be posted (legal etc)... I don't know.
Anyhow.... Jon has now updated his website with more information.
Regards,
Shaun.

For everyone's info: taken from ScoobyMagazine's site (looks like a case of you'll know as soon as I know). The whole affair is very sad. I hope Jon and Dee are ok.

FFS, why is it, the first time something good gets done, it has to stop?
I was pissed off with not getting the mag, but to now hear they have to pack up is well disappointing. Pity really, as i stopped buying all other car mag's when Scooby Mag came out.
All i can say is, unlucky.

Jon has said that he will endeavour to refund all subscriptions I guess we need to give him a chance

I think people should stop moaning about losing their poxy £20 or whatever the cost was and instead channel their brains into perhaps trying to support Jon and Dee in getting the mag up and running again.
Half of us go out and spank twice or even three times that amount on petrol just driving the cars at the weekend ... not to mention spanking stupid amounts more on silly polishes that are the biggest con in terms of what you get for your money! Complaining about losing your sub money is just going to put more and more red tape on perhaps getting this mag up and running again ... which I think would be a lot more constructive than Jon and Dee coming on here to answer posts from total hypocritical band wagon jumping members!
I lost my sub and I am happy to say so what ... if the mag gets up and running again I'd be happy to pay another sub to help them get running.

I should have also added that if the mag doesn't see the light of day again then I'm still totally happy to lose my subsciption. As the old saying goes it's better to have loved and lost that to never have loved at all.
I'd just like to say well done to Jon and Dee for having the guts to risk it all to bring us all something that the community has been crying out for, i.e. a magazine just for scoobs. Alot of the tw@ts on here wouldn't have the ***** to do something like that and I applaud you both for having a go and trying to make something out of nothing.
Best wishes to you both and good luck.

Shame about the magazine. All the best to Jon and Dee.
My mate subscibes to the Mazda MX5 mag and the Scooby mag blew it out of the water with its quality and articles.
Lets hope it gets published again in the future.
