May I suggest that those of you who wish to correspond regarding the difficulty of gaining access to the newspapers around Young do so OFF-LIST. This has been a boring thread. Brian

Has it occurred to you Brian that others have found it interesting? I have not entered into the conversation until now but I have found it interesting as I too have people who lived in the district. Marie

Okey Dokey Everyone, I think we will leave this particular thread alone from hereon in. :) Just a reminder for those new to this list - I am generally happy to let threads run, as long as they are positive and helpful. Oddly enough though, the thing that really gets on my goat is when the same message is sent back time and time again, without the excess stuff being pruned off at the bottom. That makes life really hard for people on the Digest form of this list. Just taking the minute to scroll down and delete it makes life easier for them, and keeps my blood pressure reasonable. :) If anyone ever wishes to take issue with how this list operates, the polite thing is to do it with the list-admin, offlist. If you do not know how to find the admin, you can always use the formula below. It works for all lists [names of list]-admin@rootsweb.com ie in this case AUS-NSW-CENTRAL-admin@rootsweb.com Cheers Linda List-admin AUS-NSW-CENTRAL
