I thought I'd bring this back to the top as the site was down for much of yesterday many people may have not seen it. Jude any news yet.

It is a very sad day indeed, as has been mentioned above Peter was one of life's gentlemen. Wombat and I are richer for having known him and are truly saddened by his passing. I have had a pint or three this evening thinking of the times when I have been blessed with his company. Sleep well Peter

Sad sad news indeed! I too will be pleased to know Peter's Funeral arrangements as I would like if possible to attend and pay my respects to a gentleman. With whom I like many had the pleasure of musing over a beer and a song with. You will be missed Peter by many of that there is no doubt.

Jude, thanks for letting us know.

Such sad news but it's heartening to know that Pete was so happy with his move to Whitby.

He will be missed at the Whitby Festivals.

We(Jingle and I) were with Pete on Friday night in the Endeavour, he seemed as fit as ever, and was laughing and reminiscing about past Festivals, and still making plans for the future.
He will indeed be sorely missed, a charming and helpful man, a good friend; a great loss...I still can't believe how sudden it was.

It is with such great sadness that I have to report that Pete Clarke (aka Piddling Pete) passed away in the early hours of this morning.
Pete has been around the folk scene for such a long time & will have many friends out there on the Mudcat.
Pete will probably be best known for his work with the Moor & Coast Festival in Whitby and Bedworth Folk Festival.
As and when I know the funeral arrangements I'll post them on this thread.
Meantime - have a pint for Pete tonight.
