A fanzine of Christine and Derek Ashby, out of South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, which published 5 issues. The date of the first issue is unknown to us, but Christine (McGowan) Ashby writes that she wrote the first issue prior to winning DUFF in 1976, and one source says that she wrote it to advertise that DUFF nomination, which means it was published in 1975 or 76. The title is taken from the first line of the 16th century poem "Tom O'Bedlam." It appears that all issues were mimeographed on A4 paper.
