    Yeah, I always wondered what the one-minute silence was like back then.

    E' Groat was pretty good on these days eg for example in those pre internet/radio days its coverage of the American Civil War etc was very good as was its coverage of UK events However for reporting of local issues I think the Northern Ensign was a bit better
    PC Take a look in to the Wick Library and have a look
