I think it is this issue that’s missing loads of images so sorry if it looks a bit naff.

FARANG Untamed Travel Magazine’s penultimate issue. We skipped February because we couldn’t afford the print bill. This issue features one of my favourite Bartipping pieces, A Whiff of Hops, which I completed with Editor in Chief, Cameron Cooper, no relation.

A former colleague of mine asked for her stories from our days at FARANG Untamed Travel. Scanning the stories from the print editions is a massive pain and I recently acquired an Adobe InDesign license so I can finally convert the old design files I’ve been hanging into for going on 20 years.

You’ll find the result below in WordPress’ cumbersome embedded file format, I’d recommend just downloading it. Sadly there are missing fonts and some grainy photos where the high-res version has been lost but that’s life.

Sadly, this was the last issue to come out of Toolbox Media and it was a rapid slide into bankruptcy next. I recall my final pay was half in cash and half in office furniture, some of which still serves me today.

Dear reader, please find below the PDF of the May 2005 issue, it’s the holiday issue so it’s a clip show.

Dear reader, please find below the April 2005 issue of FARANG Untamed Travel. No proper cover for this one.
