9 July won't be the same without him
The town crier post took him to 48 different countries.
He had been to the US more than 70 times.

Utopia said:Thats so sad, he used to come in to the Bar I managed on Coldharbour lane(about 2002) pretty much every Fri night around 6ish for 1/2 a Stella & to 'ring' in the weekend with his bell.
God rest his soul, a good, kind hearted chappie.

i hope that his collection of photos and memorabilia get preserved some how, they were fascinating - a veritable catalogue of notable lambeth personalities and visitors, nearly all autographed.
someone told me the details of the funeral today though i'm not sure i recall the details entirely.... Monday 8th, 12:30 at Norwood Cemetary(?) with a reception at Lambeth Town Hall at 2pm. Pretty sure those times are correct although not sure about the cemetary - West Norwood Cemetary(?) - is there only one?
