Subject: RE: Ewan MacColl
Back in the 70's I wrote to Peggy and Ewan asking if they knew where I could get copies of Ewan's plays. Peggy sent me the address of a publisher somewhere in Scotland. I wrote but they never wrote back - tried phoning but the number didn't work.

In those days you couldn't send an e-mail for people to answer when they felt up to it, either that or they had to write, find an envelope, buy a stamp, post it - which seemed a bit of a rigmarole. Phoning always seemed intrusive.
