Have you looked at the site properly it isn't only Lancashire you just have to register with a library to get free entrance into the Times Archives.

ok Linda will go back and try and find what im looking for ,thank you
Dutchx

Linda have had alook but cant find were you said and its also in Dutch whitch i dont speak,there was 6 pages mybe im doing it wrong

I don't think the Lancs site has the Sunday Times - just the Times.

Why were they asking about it so long after the event? Why in 1927?
