I am so sorry to hear about Bill so quick after we met up Tyldesley. I will never forget his wicked black sense of humour which sometimes ruffled the feathers of some people(usually the ones that deserved it). Although we seldom met except at festivals these days you know I remember the great times I had with him in the old days propping up the bar in the Half Moon. He also made the strongest home brew I have ever drunk and had the filthiest jokes I ever heard, but more than this he was one of the kindest most good-natured people I ever met, qualities sadly lacking in our world of cynicism and greed. I will miss him but will remember with great affection his love for Folk Music and for people. Hope I can make it on Wed evening to pay my respects. Janet and I are thinking about you and sending you and all your family our strength.
