I was looking back through old issues of Amstrad Action and recall I won a competition a few years back, I found the entry confirming my winning a prize.  Unfortunately I never did get the t-shirt and badge!!!!  I'm most disappointed, do you think it's too late to complain, it was only May 1991?  I probably best update my address details as I don't live there anymore and neither do my parents :)

Future Publishing are still in business so why not try them? You never know, you might get lucky.

Never mind, it said Micro Style was giving the prizes out. They've probably been forced out of business or become/swallowed up by one of those heartless corporations by now.

Why didn't you notice this back around 1991/92? I would have.

Actually i did notice it at the time but for some reason i didn't follow it up, i probably thought right i need to wait a bit for it to arrive.   i was only 15 at the time and back then contacting people meant writing or phoning and i wasn't allowed to use the phone during the day as it was too expensive, only after 6pm.  I might follow it up with future publishing to see what they say [emoji3]

I'm pretty sure i got some letter published about the gx4000 as well once , think i actually wrote into another mag and Rod published it in AA too.  Think the other mag read called micro something it was multi format and it was more a newspaper advertising style thing.

I would actually get that printed manually if I had a high enough resolution image of that loading screen! =D
