Another one gone - what a year!

I'm raising a glass to our friend Mr Mann (really, I am - Chardonnay, nicely chilled).

Just got back from viewing Holt's and Gavin Gardiner's. Knee deep in guns. Ran into Cyril Adams and a good few other top people.

We take one another for granted but how wonderful that we all all bound by a common interest. Brothers indeed. Here's to all of you still living - we'll miss you all when you are gone.
