A very quick post to point out that, if you haven't noticed, the site's had a bit of an overhaul and we now have some new regular blogs - Rice Serbic will be commenting on politics and current affairs, Tug Wilson will mainly be regaling you tales of rancid films, Charlie Cody will be discussing all things artistic and Paul Knight will be enthralling you with celebrity bullshit. In between having nervous breakdowns whilst pulling the new site together, we've managed to scrape together a new issue of the magazine - yes, Now or Never! issue 21 is hot of the presses and it's a corker. And we've finally entered the modern world and made it possible for you to buy digital copies of the latest issue. Not only that but we're updating our audio files collection for those of you who want to listen to our bullshit. We have new books for sale in our shop, plenty of new articles for you to enjoy and we've put some of our more popular regular columns online including History in a Nutshell, Old Whinger's Corner, the first few installments of Harry K's brilliant Bible Reviews and Rick's Rants .

Tommorow (Thursday 17th November) at 10pm, the amazing Harry K will be talking crap about Now or Never! and our Porn For Prisoners campaign on Spyder's Punk Show on Reel Rebels Radio So Now or Never! are all set up at Harlequin Fayre and got off to a flying start, literally, when our marquee blew away in the depths of night whilst editor, Tug Wilson, was drunkenly sprawled in it watching some dubious B-movie on his PSP (which was bought and paid for properly thank you very much, not looted or anything). Cue much confused wandering about and glassy eyed mumblings (I imagine the combination of week-long riot footage and such a blustery nocturnal experiance led very much to a feeling that indeed, we aren't in Kansas anymore) until Harry K lured him into his tent for the night, probably by waving a can of Special Brew and a copy of Ilsa She Wolf of the SS in front of his confused little face. But all has been put right in time for the festivities to begin, and we present you with the wonder that is our rancid stall and fantastic travelling library, which is playing host to bedtime stories for children (so far popular sugestions have been Dr Seuss based, Yertle the Turtle and The Lorax are looking likely but do let us know if you have any suggestions) and midnight stories for grown-ups (thankfully more Roald Dahl than Ilsa She Wolf of the SS as Harry K is in charge). Behold. Those of us left behind from the fun and frivolity stumbled about bored and looking for entertainment and came across Tales From The Cutting Room by Paul Knight . Having read it long into the early hours and thoroughly enjoyed it, I was reminded how lucky we are to have such a talented chap writing for our not so fine publication, and we do recommend you check his work out. It seems amiss not to mention the fact that today the horrific backlash of the riots is getting in full swing, with calls for benefit sanctions, social housing evictions and the like for those convicted of taking part. There's not much more that can be said that hasn't already said, and in a far more eloquent fashion - and debating the illogical nature of the nations reaction to the weeks events is starting to feel like banging ones head against a really fucking big brick wall. That aside, we do recommend you check out this this man's thoughts , Give Our Kids a Future! A North London Unity Demonstration and, somewhat suprisingly, Russell Brand . Welcome to the new Now or Never! website! We bid a fond farewell to our previous online presence - this is basically the same site but sadly it now looks slightly less like a Powerpuff Girl puking up in a candyfloss factory. The site has passed from male to female hands, and in true NoN! style, this means a lot less pink glitter and a lot more swearing and violence. Thanks are due to Harry K for all his past web wizadry; we've switched to a new site because Microsoft (of all people!) wanted to start charging us, so he's taking a well earned break whilst Scumbalina steers the good ship nowornever.org.uk for a while. We'll be updating and tweaking for a little while yet, so do still check out the old site for a wider back catalogue of articles about idiots drinking their own piss and the like. Issue 20 of Now or Never! is currently brewing, simmering and generally bubbling away, like the proverbial turtle poking it's head, so watch this space for the latest news. There's still time to submit articles, check out the about page for details.
