Andy, please will you pass my condolences and regards on to Babs?
I am gutted I will not be able to get there on the 21st.
I visited Geoff and Barbara at home and she was so welcoming and friendly.

I think we will all do that Anne. Geoff always spoke so highly of you. Going to leave around 4am just to make sure I am calm for the day.

Also hoping to make it to Parklands, if the old trout kicks me out of the sack in time.

Getting a new front tyre on Saturday to match the rear, otherwise it would be up to 9500 miles after Tuesday!

Should be a nice turnout of Ducatis… Wonder if there will be any Fords?

I am sure it will be a good celebration of Geoff’s Life.
I am gutted I that I only booked a holiday a couple of days before the announcement of the funeral.
I just wish I had also got chance to get to the Weekender too.

Best wishes to you and Caroline x

What it needs is a Lotus Cortina. That is one of Geoff's favourite tales. He made you feel like you were there when he was talking. Every detail every person who was there and what they said and did. And gearboxes. Never thought a story about gearboxes could be that exciting unless your names Geoff. We are talking straight cut gearboxes now son.

No flowers Alan


‪”We ask for no flowers, but if people wish to donate, there will a collection at the rear of the crematorium for the Northwest Air Ambulance. We want this to be a celebration of Geoff’s life so therefore we ask people if they prefer to wear non black, then we are happy for them to do so.‬”
