...and very belatedly, I've attached the (final..) version of our tribute book to Mark. The hardcopy of this was actually presented to Lyn a few months ago, but a number of other things have got in the way of me posting this on here - so apologies for that, if you were wondering what had happened to this
![]() Thanks to all of those on (and off!) this forum who provided input to this, in terms of photos, ideas and support generally in pulling this together, and in particular to Ray, who was closest of all of us to Mark, for providing the opening words to this short tribute. A number of you have asked for a hardcopy of this, and I should finally get round to posting those out to you this week (provided I'm off crutches to post them, that is ![]() There are still a few spare hardcopies remaining, so if you'd like one, then please let me know - priority will go to those who've provided photos for this book. Lyn absolutely loves this book, and wanted me to thank everyone for their support since Mark's passing, and for putting this together in his memory. My copy is still on my coffee table, and not likely to be put away anytime soon.
