I have been downloading quite a few fanzines from your blog, and I can't encourage you enough. Being totally obsessed with English bands from the 80's, I am extremely grateful for all the zines from this period that are posted here. Really terrific job!
I haven't seen any Punk Shocker though... although I am too young to have read his early zines, I really liked the last couples of issues he did, and I'd be really curious to read his early stuff. Just a suggestion!
Thanks again for the great readings!
Cheers!
Romain

fucking fucking fucking bloody bastard fucking twatting hell!!!

who is doing this blog? I want to kiss you and have many many many babies with you. I'm sime wot wrote these here Time Bomb fanzines! I only have a copy of issue 3 so finding these here is so freaking insane i can't believe it! I couldn't even remember what issue two looked like.

I'm still the same really just older and fatter with 3 kids and wife - still an anarchist and I still love my punk rock (although I haven't really kept up with any new bands)! I don't skate anymore sadly (though I'd love to, to be honest)and I moved back to Sunderland about 7 years ago after living in Yorkshire for a while.

Fuck me, I'm blown away by this.

whoever you are (is it Sned? I spotted a tag that said 'sned' somewhere) I love you, you've made my day.

anyone can feel free to email me!

Hey Sime, I'm C@S who used to sing for Hex and knock about with Dickie Cam a bit. I vaguely remember you. There's a bit in Timebomb #2 about us. I've been living in Leeds 12 yrs, now making videos and electronic music as Ghost Dog (still political in parts). www.facebook.com/casmoviesandmusic
