@~I had calls or messages from all the prize winners from last
@~issue - here is one of them ... part of an e-mail from

Brian Burke, Nottingham

Here's a thankyou for my SynTax prize received today - a sort
of pewter Faberge egg! Different to the previous figures which
it will sit alongside. Please pass my congratulations on to
the other winners. Nice to see Diana Griffiths there. It'll
give her a bit of a suprise over there in Canada.


@~...And to finish this short Letters scetion, some news from
John Wilson, Zenobi, 26 Spotland Tops, Cutgate, Rochdale, Lancs
OL12 7NX

The cat and I have decided to branch out on a new enterprise and
with this in mind we are pleased to announce the birth of "ZENOBI
SOUND SERVICES" - a small organisation dedicated to the
preservation of 'beloved-sounds'. So if you have a favourite
'cassette-tape' or even a favourite 'LP' allow us to transfer them
to the latest CD format.

For a nominal fee (œ10 for cassette and œ15 for LP) we at ZSS will
transfer an 'image-file' of your favourite TAPE or LP to CD,
thereby allowing you to preserve them for posterity. Not only
that, but in the case of the LP especially we will 'clean-up' the
recording - removing as many of those annoying 'clicks' and
'pops' as possible, in some cases restoring the LP to almost its
'original' clarity.


So if you fancy letting us loose on your favourite Tape or LP then
just bung them in the post - along with sufficient funds to cover
the cost - and the work will be done. The 'restored' sounds should
be back in your hands within seven days and the results will be
music to your ears.

If you do not fancy submitting your LPs to the rigours of the
postal service then simply make a recording of the LP and send us
the resultant tape - we will then convert THAT to the new CD
format instead.

@~In a separate communication, John also told me that he is
@~bringing out a CD of hundreds of Z80, SNA and TAP images of
@~Spectrum adventures of all types. All are copyright free and the
@~full CD costs œ25 which works out at under 5p a file. Contact
@~John at the same address if you're interested - and it's 
@~reviewed by me this issue with a competition in my editorial 
@~to win a copy ... Sue
