The strong Scottish player Andy Burnett, who played and posted on here a few times as User 445860 has started a new monthly magazine called Streetfighting Chess.
The first issue is free and can be downloaded from here:

The second issue costs £1.50 / 2 euros / $2.50 and can be bought from here:

I really liked the free issue and have bought the second already. Both issues are stuffed with games played by "club" players (up to about the level of Fide Master) and the annotations are excellent and thankfully Fritz-free. I always feel that I get more out of going over games played by people of my sort of level rather than GM/IM games. I admire the Masters, but I can't play like them and never will.
It seems to be common nowadays to compare prices to a pint of beer, but this magazine is even cheaper than a pint of Ruddles in your local Wetherspoon's. So just stick to nine pints instead of your usal ten this evening and with the money you save buy issue 2 of Streetfighting Chess Magazine!
