Thanks Custaxie50. I had his email address from way back and a friend says it is still the same, but if Allan has more pressing things on his mind I wouldn't want to add to any difficulties. As Winnie-The-Pooh said, maybe the best thing to do is nothing (actually think it was Owl).
But I have scanned the story and I can email it to anyone who wants, just send me a Personal Message.
