My problem isn't with Viz, its the readers. Some can't even count to 5.

For me the best thing about the mag was the top tips page.



X-FILES fans. Create the effect of being abducted by aliens by drinking two bottles of vodka. You’ll invariably wake up in a strange place the following morning, having had your memory mysteriously “erased”.

SAVE money on expensive personalised car number plates by simply changing your name to match your existing plate – Mr KVL 741Y AVOID jet lag by simply taking an earlier flight, thus arriving fully refreshed and on time.

PUTTING just the right amount of gin in your goldfish bowl makes the fishes’ eyes bulge and causes them to swim in an amusing manner.

THICKEN runny, low-fat yogurt by stirring in a spoonful of lard.

A NEXT door neighbour’s car aerial, carefully folded, makes an ideal coat hanger in an emergency.

DETER goldfish from having sex by throwing a small bucket of air over any you catch in the act.

SWEETCORN fans. Save money on loo paper by simply pouring the stuff straight down the pan.

INVITED by vegetarians for dinner? As you’d no doubt be made aware of their special dietary requirements, tell them about yours – ask for a nice steak.

AVOID parking tickets by leaving your windscreen wipers turned to “fast wipe” whenever you leave your car parked illegally.

OLD contact lenses make ideal portholes for small model boats.

Thieving Gypsy Bastards (one issue only, but FAF)

Sid the Sexist

Billy the Fish

Cockney Wanker

Biffa Bacon



but it's Letterbocks that I always read first !

My two personal fave top tips......



Why waste money on expensive ribbed condoms? Just fill a normal condom with frozen peas before use.



Why waste money on expensive boil in the bag cod in parsley sauce?

Just scrape the breadcrumbs off a fish finger and insert into a used condom.

Billy The Fish

Rodney Rix (and his tricks with bricks)

Roger Mellie

Paul Whicker (Tall Vicar)

Parky was my favourite

Yeah, he was pretty good. Quite subtle too. Wonder why they dropped him

I liked Finbarr Saunders and Buster Gonad.



Viz was best in the early days, I can remember that the only place to could get it in Hull at one stage was in the old Virgin store down Whitefriargate.



I used to subscribe but haven't bought it for donkey's years.
