Thank you for responding.
VWC is ...Hello, Lesley. Thank you for responding. <br /><br />VWC is indeed a successful group, and has been for many years. Come to think of it the 60th anniversary must be sometime soon. I'm a relative newbie – joined soon after the 50th anniversary – and I'm not a local lad. I did live in St Albans in the 60s but only for a matter of months so I doubt we've met. I see you're following me on Twitter (thanks), so I'll follow back and send you contact details and, if you wish, we can look further into any possible connections you might have with VWC members present and past.<br /><br />With kind regards.<br /><br />Sincerely<br /><br />OscarOscar Windsor-Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297840557697185445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-761842917498715522.post-44132004710894475462012-03-20T10:49:49.733+00:002012-03-20T10:49:49.733+00:00It certainly appears that the VWC is one of the mo...It certainly appears that the VWC is one of the more successful writing groups, I often wonder, when reading about their (your) achievements and the festival you organise, if I ever knew any of the members when I lived in St Albans in the 70s. Daughter was born in the old hospital.

We do indeed all benefit from the advice and support we share within VWC. 'Stalwart', though, is a word far more applicable to your contribution to VWC than mine, so gratitude is very much reciprocated.Oscar Windsor-Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297840557697185445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-761842917498715522.post-82430926224082315852012-02-25T18:22:48.596+00:002012-02-25T18:22:48.596+00:00A very generous post after what's obviously be...A very generous post after what's obviously been a difficult time for you, Oscar - and thank you for your kind comments. We all share in one another's achievements and I'm convinced that no writer can make much headway alone. Without the support of the VWC I'm sure I wouldn't have had the recent success that's come my way, and you've been a stalwart part of the VWC for as long as I've been a member. You have my gratitude.Jenny Bardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04283175230630243754noreply@blogger.com
