Thanks Gromit - but it isn�t those mags - it was like spoof stories - i just remember the alien ones and thinks like i married a goat who turned out to be my dad (sort of thing).

Is it this one - http://www.weeklyworldnews.com/

I used to love reading this, didn't know it was still going.

I think it is the weekly world news.

Usually has headlines such as 'Elvis found in a cabbage', 'Double Decker bus found on the moon' and suchlike.

You're right, it was Weekly World News, I remember it now.

off wikipedia:

On July 21, 2007, parent company American Media announced that it would suspend publication of both the print and website version of Weekly World News, with the last issue being printed on August 3, after two weeks of 'reprint' issues (no new content).[1] Subsequent announcements instead gave August 27 as the last issue, and state that the online version will continue. [2] No reason was given for the decision; an editor with the paper said that "the reasons given don't make sense."[3]

the editor of the Weekly World News says 'the reasons given don't make sense'??? There's irony for you.
