I have just finished transcribing the 1947 ‘Dorkinian’ magazine, which was lent to me by Norma Hall nee Youdale. It may be found at:

I am not looking for loads of work but if any other old ‘Dorkinian’ magazines are available I will gladly and in time add them to our website archives before they disappear into shredders.
I was particularly keen to read the 1947 magazine as it gives insight into the spelling of names in the 1947 Panorama. eg Haiselden rather than Hazelden.
There have been no significantly extra names added since October but I live in hopes for a few more. I have revamped all.the Panorama naming routines. Nothing is infallible but at least the tables are all consistent now.. ie all equally wrong or right. Feedback is always desirable but not always consistent and it is hard to judge whether A or B knows best. What is there is sometimes a best guess.
