I think I was very Lucky. Lisa says it was in the bin! Of course, by asking people i'm showing the shameful side of the family. Sobs, Oh the shame! The shame!

Hi Dan So pleased that Lisa found the newspaper you wanted - how lucky was that! I came back to the site to find the title of the article and saw that you've had success, so I need search no more! Also nice to see somebody doing a favour for someone else :) Mandy

Oh, me too - was really fed up with this site and probs and not the only one either! Its quite a big article - fits nearly an entire tabloid page, and theres a large pic too. Might take me a few attempts as not very good with scanner but will get there in the end, no worries! Glad I could help - it was in the recycle bin! Lisa

Thanks very much Lisa. The site went down before and i'm just catching up with the messages. I'll send you my email address and if you could please just crop the article I'd be very grateful. Thanks again.

Have just flicked thru that issue Daniel and cannot see that article in it - are you sure of the date? Could it have been in the Observer giveaway paper - I seem to recall seeing it somewhere. Lisa

Hi Dan, I'm not a million miles away - hubby works in South Glos and several of his colleagues live in the area you're after. Which newspaper is it though? He might be able to get a copy from their offices, or at a local library. Can't make any promises but will certainly do our best. Mandy :)

I'm hoping someone has kept their local paper from Septmeber 1st as there is an article in it I'm trying to get a copy of. Butcher shop of Horrors is the title. Would someone be able to email me the image of the article? I know the paper is online but i'm after the actual printed image. Thanks alot.
