Thank you James,

And yes, you're a member there now.
Your dad was a marvellous strategist you know.
He always 'had a plan'!
Months ago he posted me most of that message and asked that I read it out at our Leicester 'do' on Sat 21st June - in the event that he wouldn't be around.
I told him I probably couldn't do it myself because I'd be 'bubbling my eyes out', and that in any case we would need an interpreter there to translate Geordie into English.
I had absolutely no doubt he WOULD be with us at The Mill that day, and by God, he managed it, thanks to all your help.
It was good to hear how good his 'send off' was yesterday - and I should hope so too.
He would have expected nothing less. Knowing Barry, I bet there were quite a few chuckles during the ceremony.
Once again, farewell to a real HERO and one of the nicest men you could possibly meet.
George
