Hi,
sorry to hear you didnt get a reply from the Forester, maybe that's a result of the tremendous changes of working practices & increased workloads they've been going thro this last year or so due to change of ownership etc.
As this prior thread shows all the old archives of the DF Mercury, now The Forester, are at Cinderford Library on microfilm, but whether recent ones such as this are too I don't know... but that's presuming you're in the area of course ?
Much as I'd like to I can't promise anything, but I'll email my sister at the paper and try and expedite a reply. Please note tho' she is "only" reception/general assistant and not in a position of power.
PLEASE can you send me a direct email asap to remind me, confirming if W Pattern is the name you used or not, and importantly stating what email address you've been using so I can check if it's still valid, thanks !
