by Gary Hardy Edited the whole weekly newsletter as well
as regularly providing commentary, photographs, and doing many of the articles

'I
Remember Ibiza' by Harold Liebow 'The persons, places and
events that are described in the pages of 'I Remember Ibiza' are sometimes
real and sometimes imagined. But the atmosphere of the island in the 1960s is
always as accurately conveyed as it was possible for me to create it. Writing
about the spirit of Ibiza in those days causes it to live on inside of me, and
I hope that reading about it will bring it alive for you, too.' Harold contributed
twenty-three articles from Saturday 8th June to Saturday 9th November 2002.
'Local
News' by Louise Wright Focused on local news, written by 17-year-old
local reporter Louise Wright, including the disappearance of a young man who vanished
on the day he arrived for a family holiday and a plane carrying six American businessmen
that mysteriously disappeared over the island. Louise contributed twenty-one news
articles on the island of Ibiza from Saturday 14th July to Saturday 22nd December
2001. 'Sober
Life' by Sinclair Newton Strangely for such a hedonistic island,
English journalist Sinclair Newton, a self-confessed reformed alcoholic, reported
on the sober side of the sex, drugs and rock "n" roll culture which
normally dominates the tabloid headlines. Unfortunately, Sinclair died three days
short of his 57th birthday on the morning of Monday 10th March 2003 at Tameside
Hospital, Denton, Manchester, England of many complications around diabetes and
a general breakdown of his health. However, Sinclair's witty 'Sober Life'
columns' will always continue to live on as 'Sinclair's Virtual Memory'. Sinclair
contributed eighty-eight articles from Saturday 21st April 2001 through to Saturday
21st December 2002.
'Exclusive
Interview' by Sinclair Newton With Clifford Irving's
fourth wife and long time Ibiza resident, Edith Sommer at Christmas 1991.
