Keighley News

I have in my possession(kindly passed on by brother- in-law Mike Boothroyd) a Jan 2000 (Millennium) edition of The Keighley News. It contains front pages of various KN editions over the years, particularly when there has been a significant event like KRLFC getting to Wembley , or the Mechanics Fire. I am not sure at this stage how to communicate some of this stuff to you as its in broadsheet form. I might be able to reduce some of it to A4 , scan and send to Chris, though how succesful it will be remains to be seen. Anyway watch this space, and I will try to organise something.

Re: Keighley News

I appreciate this offer, Brian, which would appear to present you with some technical difficulties.
I have a rather dilapidated anniversary version of the Kly News from circa 1960 which would confound my creative skills if I tried to make it available on this website.
Might I make an alternative suggestion?
These publications are probably available elsewhere on the web from other sources. Is it possible to create a "resource corner" (like the "Kiddies' Corner" in the local library) where the "URL"s of sites of interest to our posters AND secret readers are listed? There are already several links on this site of interest to most "tykeophiles". A good idea worthy of development, Chris?????
