    Anyone remember this...
    It was a small newsletter that went around UCG about 10 years ago or so.

    Brilliant stuff... the weekly story about the latest drunken acts of Eamon Dunphy were always good for a start

    I trailed the web looking for excerpts and references but all i could find was one dead cached google page from the UCG student website.

    He had nothing to do with it. It was actually written by Sean the Scottish fella that was in NUIG at the time and some of his mates. You used to see them selling it in the college bar the whole time.

    Sounds like a brilliant magazine. Shame there aren't any around. What are the chances that a media studies professor decided to keep a copy of every edition and is just waiting for the day for someone to ask to take a look at them?
