Sorry to just hear about Allan. I worked with him in the 70's as an apprentice compositor at the telegraph. He was a very funny man who kept me amused with his tales of the past and his little songs that he used to sing. I used to go fishing with him to Morecambe fishing from the stone jetty. I think he sort of took me under his wing and taught me a lot about comping and fishing. Glad he made it into his 90's. One of life's characters.
