Basil Howitt A great loss

Post by redneckrover »

I was not aware until today that Basil sadly passed away in early January. I always enjoyed his stories and he kept us all advised about progress ( (or lack of ) of the high speed rail network. I didnt see any report of his death on the Website or the Forum ( or did I miss it ? )

Hi Red,
Yes, very sad indeed. I wrote about it in my blog, and am also putting something at the bottom of his articles (eg http://www.anglophone-direct.com/Salses ... t-Fortress) which I am 'renovating' but maybe I should put it at the top so it's more obvious.

Eventually, when it is all less raw, I am hoping to meet up with his wife, Claire, and write something about Basil, his background and life here.
