No! Wow, thanks for that information.

I've just checked with the library and while this is possible, it's £3 and you must know all of the information such as the exact date and place, they won't search within a quarter for example. You can of course go into the library and search yourself with a photocopy costing 40p. Dave Carr On 19 May 2008, at 08:37, Graham Cole wrote: No! Wow, thanks for that information.
