Here's something that no one was expecting - a special mini-ALAN for you all so soon after the wasn't-that-a-long-time-coming Issue 4.

This should be called the special "I don't know" edition because it's all about the birth and upbringing of RUTH's first PROPER single, an epic story which begins a few short weeks after the envelopes had been sealed and our last bulletin reached you (not including the one with the CD in.)

So reel at the story of RUTH's efforts at the studio, gasp at the tantalising insights into the bringing of our tiny band to worldwide prominence and order your copy of I don't know. Do it. Do it NOW.
