Hi Francois, I see Tom almost every day in the shop, in fact he also visits my father almost every night, a few whisky's and a good chat about the old days.... I will pass on your message to him...

Mike

Francois there also used to be a German guy in those kitchens.  All I remember is that he was quite a large man, his wife was equally large and worked in the Post Office.  Do you perhaps know who I am talking about?
