michaeldr Posted 24 October , 2004 Author Share Posted 24 October , 2004 Museumtom, Very many thanks for such a prompt reply Can I take it that SDGW adds nothing further to what we know regarding the circumstances of his death? Accidental death? DoW? Whatever? ? Thanks again Michael D.R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
