  • Owt 50 Old Wyves' Tales 50 - May 2006 Dennis J Duggan, Rock Cottage, Brook Street, Welshpool, Montgomeryshire
    Old Wyves’ Tales – Volume 6 (Issues 50-59) 50-1 OWT 50 OLD WYVES' TALES 50 - MAY 2006 DENNIS J DUGGAN, ROCK COTTAGE, BROOK STREET, WELSHPOOL, MONTGOMERYSHIRE. SY21 7NA TEL 01938 555574 07985 405365 EDITORIAL It seems a long time since OWT 49! I have been very busy with my various other clubs and interests, plus we are converting our spare bedroom into a study (of sorts) Stephanie's mother was very very ill over the past few months, and she passed away on May 7th; you will understand that took up a lot of our time. So all in all Wyvernians has been on the back burner for a while. This OWT should be something of a special edition, being issue 50, but alas it is the same tried-andtrusted format that has served us so well over the past few years. Our first reunion was in 1998, and if memory serves me correctly the first newsletter was written in the spring of 2001. That was quite a modest affair, and gradually developed into the current layout. I am making the usual plea for more material, which is still in short supply. If you feel able to contribute something then please do so as soon as possible. Richard Thompson (1949-56) has sent in a 6.5 page contribution to OWT, and this will be serialised in future issues. I would say that Richard's article is one of the best - perhaps the best - I have ever received. It offers an incisive look at some of the CBS masters of that era, and the references to OFT Bob Roberts are particularly fascinating.
