I am actually trying to trace someone. My wife and I recently flew back from the USA. At the airport we met an american couple that were going to stay in Upper Heyford to look after their 92 year old mother, all we know was that their names were Jim and Betty and lived in Ventura California. We all parted in such a hurry in the states that we didn’t get the chance to swap any contact details. I am not sure when they are returning home. If whoever reads this, or knows of anyone that could help, I would be very grateful.

Dear Sirs,
I am so please to see my picture being used on the front page of the Prattlers website (the silhouette of the trees). However other snottier photographers might get bent out of shape if they were not asked. On this occasion I am not bothered as it is the village magazine, however I have had picture used in the past and not been asked, other have used pictures and asked; I would say be careful next time you use a picture as other photographers my not like it. Just for interest, where did you get the picture from?
Regards
Richard Smith
Sorry for lack of credit Richard, thats my fault (sam tapsell – website person).
It was in response to the article here: http://theprattler.co.uk/2011/07/03/calling-all-photographers/
When I posted the article onto the website from the magazine I followed the link to the nether heyford Flickr group and grabbed a couple of shots from there. There are half a dozen different photos which rotate automatically every couple of days.
I have added a little message top right, let me know if thats OK with you. Sam
Flickr is a good site to go to for photographs. Thank you for the recognition but in my case it is not needed, I am pleased you picked it. I thought I would raise this with you as there has been a lot of chat about this subject on various websites I go on, UKClimbing.com being one of the site and articles in photographic publications; some people do get bent right out of shape over this. Good work with the magazine, look forward to the next issue.
