Dose anyone know when the next one is out also the harder question,
Has anyone got W&R 1, 2, 3 or 4 and that they would be willing to copy some information out of them for me, its the Southend related pages I am looking for.
A guy was selling issue 3 at Shoreham today but £25 was out of my price range sadly.

Scanned this out of the 3rd edition. hope it helps.
I have managed to ‘aquire’ all the editions with the exception of 1&2, in fact No.3 was purchased at the VAC Daffodil rally at Turweston 2001 for the princely sum of 50p !! even includes a typed note from George Jones to Dick Scholefield thanking him for a photograph included in the edition.

I have W&R from No3 if you let me know what you want copying and PM an address I will send it to you
The new W&R is due for release very soon as it was in the final proof checking stage about two weeks ago according to one of the proof checkers that I know.
