sad news indeed Amingst his many other graces I remember his quiet authority. Many years ago Ironmen and Severn Gilders were appearing with, amongst others, Bampton, at an arena performance in Sidmouth. All performers had to be there in the morning for a walk through for the afternoon performance. A very harrassed ASM was a little peturbed at the non appearance of Bampton. "How will they know what to do?" was the question. Francis' answer, given with that unmistakeable twinkle of an eye "They'll know, because I'll tell them" Safe Home Baz
