Discovered In A Newspaper - July 1977

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Having loved everyone's reminiscences about Jubilee Day in June 1977 we thought we'd bring a bit more hard-core history into the July challenge. The inspiration for writers and artists and everyone this time is an actual newspaper article from July 1977 - and from The Times, no less... *g*



Clicking once on the image will enlarge it enough to read fairly easily, clicking twice will make it even larger, and bring up that expand-y icon in the bottom right hand corner which helps you see it in very big writing indeed... Sorry about the quality, it's a genuine article, from The Times on 1st July 1977, found the other day, printed out from microfische and then scanned into jpg format! If anyone has problems reading it do let me know, and I'll see what I can do...

So... how were CI5 involved in this incident? How were the lads involved? Maybe they weren't at all... maybe they just happened to read it in the paper... As ever, it's entirely up to you how much use you make of this inspiration - as long as there's a hint of it somewhere in passing...

And it's probably a good idea not to use the actual names of people involved, by the way, just to be on the safe side of not-being-sued-for-making-up-stories-about-them... *g*

As ever, if you'd like to take part, please comment below, just so we can get an idea of what to expect when posting comes around. Creations should be posted between 13th and 20th of July.

Any takers..?
