Reckon I'm excluded from this thread as unfair competition. See Friday.

The easieat way of getting your face in the mercury is to play for HFC, HRFC or HCC - the ports pages always feature the teams and star players from the town's football, rugby and cricket clubs. The villages and smaller clubs also get in, so join up now. Or go for a streak across the pitch in the middle of a match whilst Steve is there with his camera.

I don't think HFC, HRFC or HCC would want me. Perhaps I should try the mayoral route to glory.

Steve do you submit photos as part of the community then or take photos for them specifically?

Still sounds far too dangerous.....anyways.....fizzog has adorned the pages in the past without having to join a local drinking/sporting club.

Best way to get fizzog in paper is either some amateur theatre route, sing in a band or schmooze up to Steve !!!!!! (I am ready for my close up now Mr Steve!!!!)

im not to shure about friday,they emailed me saying my comments would be in the paper but no one has spoken to me yet..maybe im doing it by proxy[:)]

Yep...........but they only need a sniff to make a story. Do you remember the night of a thousand fridges? Last year 18 fridges were dumped along the B1000 into WGC. That morning I had to speak to a guy at the Mercury about a different matter and had driven along the B1000 into work and seen the fridges. I mentioned the fridges to him half expecting them to already be aware. Next thing I know there's a photo of said fridges in Fridays Mercury with a load of quotes from me. I had even said to the guy, "don't put this in the paper - don't quote me"!

quote:I got involved in some stories regarding WAGN's poor service post-Hatfield. Long long after Hatfield & Potters Bar, there was another incident involving loss of service to the Hertford Loop. The Mercury ran a story and quoted me as saying that I wasn't best pleased with what had happened. Thing is I hadn't spoken to the Mercury about said incident and hadn't used the Hertford Loop for the best part of a year as I'd got a new job in Bishops Stortford!

Del, ring them on one of the direct numbers printed on inside pages. Either Jon or Gordon who are Hertford reporters. Numbers do take you straight through to news desk.
