I'll gladly pay the 50£! I think pricing is ok, I'm just a bit "overwhelmed" by the idea of receiving 4 mails every week 😅 I understand that you want to have a balanced 2+2 scenario, but I think it might be a bit much - that said I love your content so I'll try to keep up haha
Ha - know what you mean Lorenzo - feels like a lot doesn't it. Reminds us of when we subscribed to the New Yorker that time and a huge pile of them built up and just made us feel guilty until we unsubscribed! Two of them are 'roundups' though so hopefully it won't feel like too much - let's see.
Price is more than reasonable (of course, I'd love the discount). I would suggest to make it easy to cancel the subscription, not everyone is in London forever, and personally I hate when you have to go through hundreds of loops to cancel, it puts me off even before subscribing!
Regarding topics: would love a focus on literature and hidden exhibitions in London. There is always a lot going on, I always go to the major exhibitions (I'm a British Musem member) but it would be great to find out about smaller ones.
I'm a cyclist and would like to keep up-to-date with news about it (especially if we could organise something against violent crime and mopeds, they almost ran me over so many times). Yes, the last read scared me... (and angered me)
Would also be great to learn about other sports, e.g. how there is the Swing Patrol for swing etc.
Events: if you could organise (in the future) some events, it would be so much fun! Or get discounts, once you are more stable.
I'll think about it more - but can I just say I love what you do. It's so relevant to Londoners and not just tourists, like so many other things are. Thank you!!!
Thanks for the ideas and the lovely feedback Ma, really appreciate it. We are definitely looking for someone to write about the cycling stuff in a way that doesn't play into the 'all cyclists/drivers are wankers' dialogue. And an 'art beat' is definitely something we could write more about if people wanted it - something like what https://www.thewhitepube.co.uk/ do.
It’d be great to see a regular section/column on access topics. I’m using access, rather than disability, on purpose, as not all access issues arise from physical barriers.
This can reach from steps hindering wheelchairs and scooters from entering premises, to ungodly opening hours, and simple issues like miscommunication.
Often those causing the barriers are not aware that with a simple change, they may open a world to someone.

Noted - thanks. We're big fans of Alan Benson's stuff and it would be good to have some more indepth stuff around those issues.
