Thanks for your offer - but I have all the issues of Spotlight (including issue 24, dated Jan 87) I don't expect this to be an easy job - but rather that people who leave the sport throwing their Whippet News away - if the archive is short then it would be nice if we all knew that some one had...

My oldest Whippet News is issue 13 dated April 1964 Between then and now I have some big gaps in the magazines numbers. Is it worth having an Archive of all the copies. I'm Happy to contribute or store the Archive. My idea is to allow all access to the Library/Archive from any research in...

Yes it is Dosthill Yes it is Gavin with RCh Nippy Girl and Dave Morris with RCh Major Morris, he and his family live just off the Fordham Rd in Newmarket - opposite the Playing Fields. Yes it is Dave Brown's Cortina and I think RCh Chantilly Lace is looking out the back window. :thumbsup:

I know the last one was a bit hard but - these questions are a bit easier! Who are these two friends Whippet Racing? Who are their dogs (they have just who an important race (each)). Bonus - what track did they do this winning? Its a Mark 4 Cortina in the background.

I know this was difficult but I thought some of the oldies would have got it! :wacko: Its Don Greenhalgh at the South End WRC, Essex Don & Dot owned Mary Ann a good 18lbs bitch before the WCRA, but who ran as a Vet in the 70s. Don & Dot weremembers of the Lansbrown club and lived in Harlow. ;)

Sorry I didn't get a chance of go. It looked like trish's Silver Stream to me - or her breeding. Question is - Bluebell Open was a Stanborough event - but where was the photo taken? Not Peter's Green, can't see it being the Goslin Stadium - but was it?

Hi Lesley Could be that we change the rules so that all owners have to 'dress appropriate - 'ties will be worn'' What do you think will it catch on? Back to the pic - glad this one is making people think. This 'Lure Driver' (and his wife) did do the Opens with there Whippets, but is was some...

Good try Tina & Colin But no, not Charlie, this chap is possibly Charlie Stones age though. :wacko:
