    1. If you are in Facebook there is a Web Page with all cuttings, photos that I have. Paul and I were in the same class at school and years after him leaving the group he got in touch with me, via email, and we chatted about one thing or another. Sad news when his partner mailed me and told me that he had passed. I’ll check on Facebook and see if your on it.
