This document can't be downloaded direct from the website.

You need to fill in an online form, and TNA may be able to send you an estimate for copying it. It's impossible to calculate the cost in advance without knowing the size of the document.

Go here, click Ordering and Viewing Options, and follow the instructions.

Hope that helps.

i thought it said on the list of ordering/veiwing options can be put onto dvd or e.mailed , at the bottom of the page and at the side i think was a price of about £5-50 ( i think ) would this be the total price of the document on a d.v.d , i dont know , if i lived near the archives life would be easier . should i e.mail them and ask !!!

would this be the total price of the document on a d.v.d

No, that's an additional charge for DVD format.

As I said, the cost depends on the size of the document. They should be able to look at it and send you an estimate.

Hey Mark

I've got a free Saturday at the beginning of April, I'm quite happy to go to the Archives and copy this file if you want. Might even drag hubby along with the offer of a pub lunch if he's good!!!
