Relaunch!!!!	In August 1998 the Hamster Times Relaunched itself as the HT:Shorts. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Number 12! The last long issue of the Hamster Times!	Issue 12 - the slightly (about a month) late issue - out from March 5th 1998. Includes a photostory (Ernie act 3), rants, news, lettuce, stars, and maybe even some sport...
Number 11, if such a thing exists	Um... The issue that virtually isn't. Just the rants and photostory sections in this one... Blame the Munchkins.
Number 10 ?	The 1st issue of the new, new look. Containing drumroll please... A Bumper Spice of Life - with all the carried over stuff from Christmas, The Stars for January (we don't seem to have any for February - which would be worrying except that nothing happened that was exciting anyway so that's okay), News (which is quite strange this time around), lettuce, and the usual rants.
