I've had the paper March copy for about a week now. I just don't get the logic of a March issue that is posted in the first week of February.
In magazine terms that's quite late. My wife's
Good Food for instance turns up two months early (the February edition arrived in the first post after Christmas).
The last magazine I remember being issued in the month on the cover was
Motor Sport but that must have been a couple of decades ago.
