Last weekend while visiting his parents in Essex Mick Tems, of Calennig fame, suffered a stroke resulting in loss of speech.
I last spoke to him at the Lancaster Maritime Festival at Easter and he was telling me about their forthcoming tour to India and then, maybe, Poland.
I'm sure that all of Mick and Pat's friends join with me in wishing him a full and speedy recovery and that our thoughts are with them both during this trying time.
