The Return of the Bloke

I'm back again for good, touch wood. (Rubs cranium.) It may take me a while to get back up to speed, though. I was away from home for a long time over Yule because my mother was hospitalised with what turned out to be a touch of pneumonia.

First things first, though - the poll! Look to your right and see, from beneath raised eyebrows, that the race has caught fire, or something. What was the best story in the special, landmark-ish issue 30? If you haven't already decided, you've got a couple of weeks to ponder. Then it'll be the poll for ST #31...

Meanwhile, to lull you to sleep on a cold January night, here's an old ghost story in the classic tradition, read by yours truly.
