To those of you old enough to have met Ron, it is with sadness that I
post this. Ron died at the weekend - his funeral was on Monday - after a
long illness.

Not so sure you have to be all that old....... Hell the guy was taking kids
down the fish ladders at the Locks on the Little Ouse 8 years back when I
last saw him ~ and he must've been well into his late 70s at least by then.

A real nice old boy - and a deeply iconoclastic sod with it. He'll be
genuinely missed by those who knew him and weren't fans of too much
bull****.
