From the editor

Sadly due to editorial issues we couldn't launch our new look Metro this month and I have indefinately postponed it. Thank you for your understanding.

The future of The Metropolitan is currently under review due to the lack of contributions and subscribers. We hope to publish at least one (probably final) issue before the review.
