FWIW, the MAGAZINE OF FANTASY & SCIENCE FICTION, which had been
coming in a manila envelope, now comes naked, with an address label
on the back.  (Thank Ghod it's on the back.)

 I've only had one issue of that this year - Ansible did report production
problems recently - and I think that was in the usual envelope.
 Some magazines arrive in what are described as "compostable" wrappings,
although a correspondence in New Scientist a while back disputed that.
Most others arrive in plastic or paper envelopes.

Ours just arrived a few days ago.  It was the Summer issue.  Yours may take longer since you're in the UK.
