Been away from the page for sometime now. New computer now, all singing and all dancing. Its now nice to catch up on bandservice biz. I am particulary sorry to hear about the passing away of tim, I served with him in F.O.S.N.I back in the late 80's and had wonderful memories, he sat next to me as I was an Oboe holder. He looked out for me as I was young and naive. He always had time for anyone, espescially rehearsing our world war 2 choir which we used to practice around his house on some evenings when we were running out of time.
My fondest memory would be the time that we visited hong kong, where he introduced me to the local quisine, we had a trip down to stanley market and he sat me down to have a little snack. Put in front of was 2 bowls of noodles with what I can only describe as arteries and some sort of eye balls. Still got the photo. Happy times.
Deepest sympathy to tims family.

Regards,

Jock MacGregor
