Many thanks for replying, Colin. It's much appreciated. Is there any possibility you could scan a few 'choice' photos, with a wee description attached please?
We intending being at the exhibition, but need the owners permission to take a photo of the 'photo'! And then the quality after print will be poor. Scanned copies, so we can upload is much improved; even on old photos. We're very keen to devote at least 1-2 pages of our new magazine to the history of the area, and pix are a grand eye catcher.
Our aim is to set up, print and deliver the first 'Valley News' issue in October, probably a few days after the church exhibition. We hope this will be a grand time/place to chat with folk who can recount their memories to us.
We are publishing on a free basis for the local community; delivered by volunteers to homes and we will be reliant on advertising and goodwill to succeed!!
We feel to suceed in the future, we need to remember and celebrate the past, so any help/stories/pix will be much appreciated.
