Sad news: the Chase Post newspaper, which covered the sprawling, creature-infested Cannock Chase woods of Staffordshire, England is no more.
Yep, after decades of publication, it has finally closed its doors.
Aside from the most unfortunate thing - a significant loss of jobs - the closure of the Post will mean that a key outlet for breaking stories on sightings of big-cats, Bigfoot-style entities, werewolves, and unusual water-based beasts, on the Cannock Chase will be no more.
I have a lot of good memories of the Post, particularly when in 1999-2001 me and Irene Bott, formerly of the Staffordshire UFO Group, wrote a regular, weekly column for the newspaper called The C-Files.
It was that particular column which prompted a lot of eye-witnesses to crypto-creatures on the Cannock Chase to come forward.
Here's wishing editor Mike Lockley and the rest of the team all the very best for the future.
