Yup, that's me. You can find details at
http://steve.pugh.net/SFSFW/default.html, but we've set it up so you can
send me a $25 check (in US dollars) and get four issues of Ragnarok, the
journal of the Society of Fantasy and Science Fiction Wargamers, plus access
to the SFSFW items in the Brigade Models catalog. Issue #33 is just about
ready to
go out, so if you send in now you'll get #30-33 all at once.

I can't place Brigade orders for you, but I've ordered from them myself
several times. An international money order from the post office is not too
expensive, but I usually just go to the money changing booths at the airport
(I live in LA) and get British Pounds in cash.

Let me know if you're interested in joining, or if you have any questions. Jed

If you're in a medium-sized city (like Norfolk), at least one
bank will have foreign currency exchange. Not that I necessarily recommend you
send cash through the mail.

I have gotten checks written for an amount in Canadian dollars, and deposited
them into an American account, and the bank had no trouble converting it. But
we get a lot of Canadian tourists in Virginia Beach, so that may be unusual.
Tony, if we write you checks in $US, can you deposit them as UKPounds?
