Welcome!
After a two week hiatus the Bucks Freedom Press is back with some exciting new features and news stories coming up in the following weeks. Look out for our new series A-Z of Walks in Buckinghamshire. Actually, if may be A-W as we have yet to find a X, Y or Z but we are taking our inspiration from Ivor’s Wycombe A-Z so who knows what he will turn up with his extensive research.
Meanwhile, the Bucks Freedom Press has compiled an Idioticon of Ivor in tribute to the sterling work he has produced over the last 5 years or so:

WDC (the Powers that be!)
Hi Morag, you didn't waste much time, hope you had a good break. I am away at the moment. I see Lawrence is on the warpath, hope you can ignore him, I can't always manage to, lol. How was your little duck, and the lodgers, good I hope.
How could I have forgotten that? I will add it on straight away.. thank you!
Hi Lorraine, all good here. See my comment to JBB on Bucks Freedom Press News re very exciting duck news! Enjoy your break.
P.S. I thought I heard some distant braying somewhere. Hee Haw!
F for fish paste sandwiches
Added! Thank you :-)
E, for Edna: Ivor's only known lady-friend to date.
Edna was already included in the Zoo and I have tried not to duplicate here. However, I have now made an exception for such an important person in Ivor's life.
Edna,do let me know if you would like to submit an article updating us on this very special relationship.
All other contributions to the Bucks Freedom Press are welcome. Drop me a comment or email iloveivor@hotmail.co.uk
