The fire at John and Daphne's is currently reported online at:

www.northantsnews.com

You probably won't be surprised to know that the local newspaper got most of the details wrong (e.g. address, names, ages!). The couple are:

John & Daphne Coombs (i.e. no 'e' in Coombs) of Croyland ROAD (i.e. not 'Avenue'), Wellingborough, Northants (I won't give the house nummber but our postman knows where to forward any mail). I know they've already received many messages of sympathy from complete strangers which are of great consolation at this terrible time.
