What a bummer. I'm in the US and make a special trip to a large city about an hour from here every month to load up on Highbury and Paragon computer mags. Because of exchange rates, shipping, etc. they cost me $15 USD each, but they are still worth the money. My favorite is Practical Web Projects because it's not above my tech level, although the other do help me learn to improve my skills.
I was trying to find info on getting some backs issues and ended up on your blog discussing Highbury, following Google links. How sad! We have no comparable mags in the US.
