Sad news to report.

John Parsons has died as a result of injuries received having been struck by a car on Stone Road a couple of weeks ago.

There will be a service at the Crematorium at 12 noon on Monday, December 30th.

RIP RJP.

Nice fella, Gordon. One of the first people I met from the shop floor side.

I've just had word that Taffy Price has had another stroke - on holiday in Wales at the time, but back in Cannock now, after three days of arguing about paperwork.

He's back to where he was a few years ago, but he recovered very well from the last one...

Bugger! Good to know he was up to arguing. Its when he stops doing that, it's a concern. Get well Taffy!

I'll keep an eye on him - I dragged him to the last piss-up, but that's long enough ago to not feel guilty about triggering this one. Actually, he fell over on the promenade and got a good cut from it - a theory is that have may have dislodged a clot from that, as a result - who knows...

That's true - if only there was a video of the reception - it must have been some event....
