Is the latest issue of "On the Move" available as a PDF to download? If so where?

BTW Matt, reading On The Move which was awarded the Koshnitsky Medal for journalism by the ACF mob at the Aus Open Champs earlier in the year in this forum is like reading the Talmud in the presence of Bin Laden or Adolf Hitler whichever suits you best!

The technical difference matters in this case methinks ... |

"On the move" arrived on the Gold Coast
Thanks to Chess Guru for posting ON THE MOVE news letters to the Kings of chess club on the Gold Coast.
The club players asked me on the last Saturday if the new issue has arrived, they love to read these very informative pages. ON THE MOVE will be handed over to the club players on this Saturday.
