"It's that difficult 13th issue"
RIP
Just after we went to press with Plokta 12½ we were sad to hear that Ian Gunn had lost his long battle with cancer. Gunny had been a regular contributor to Plokta. Meanwhile, British fandom is coping with the loss of Vin¢ Clarke late last year after a lengthy illness. Vin¢ was the holder of the British Fanzine Archive, and it seems terribly strange not to be sending him our fanzine. And a few weeks ago, Buck Coulson died suddenly. Buck locced nearly every Plokta -- you will find his last loc to us later in this issue.We do hope this isn't going to be a regular column.
Ian Gunn & Karen Pender-Gunn.
Thanks to Karen for this wedding photo.
