Thank you so much for this. Curiosity satisfied. Unfortunately I don't live near a library with access to newspapers and tend to forget that some people have this luxury. I just recall a trip some years ago to the library in Annan and all the wonderful newspaper material available. Need to visit again .... but will wait for better weather! Carol
