I frothed at the mouth when I found a newspaper cutting (via A2A) of a wedding I was interested in, but had never been able to find recorded anywhere. Lancs Records Office sent me a four page fax which included the cutting AND the wedding service card - which included names and addresses of all the guests, the gifts they had sent, neatly divided into 'bride' and 'groom' They didnt charge me a penny for this. This fax solved a problem which had been bugging me for years. OC
