keepturningleft 589 Posted December 16, 2022 Change of subject...in a recent edition of the Star, a feature on a streaming service noted that Dave Lanning was the first voice of speedway. I say that Alan Weeks was in fact the first voice of speedway. Admittedly he didn't commentate on anything like the same number of meetings that Messrs Lanning and Pearson did etc, but during what speedway there was during the 60's, he was the voice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm only a few miles up the road from you and get mine delivered by the private firm. Never misses 6 am Thursday. I wonder how there area of delivery works, no comparison with Royal Mail which used to come whenever the postie felt like delivering it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same here but my Speedway Star is currently (not) being delivered by Royal Mail though regular mail still turns up, esp junk mail, no 'Stars in stock in local Asda or Tesco this week.....

Technik 491 Posted December 18, 2022 Since Royal Mail started working part time hours I have missed the last two copies, others have been late & I believe some have failed to arrive at all. I have yet to contact the Star as I'm sure there is nothing they can do other than put me on the independent delivery system which I was on for a short time when it started but it never went well for me so I reverted to Royal Mail but I think after Christmas I'll be giving it another chance.
