Special lady - Anonymous - 29-06-2005 Many happy returns of the day to Gwen Crellin, the Lady in White, who marshalled in Ballaugh for many many years, and has been a lifelong supporter of racing on the TT course. Beloved of Agostini, Mick Grant and so many riders, Gwen is still as funny and delightful as ever. She probably won't see this, but I hope you are having a wonderful day, Gwen...see you in a couple of weeks. Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 29-06-2005 She ALWAYS has time for a wave on the way out of Ballaugh Village, one day I must arrange a breakdown there for a cup of tea...lol. Happy Birthday Gwen Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 30-06-2005 A special kiss from Australia Gwen, you are a living legend. Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 30-06-2005 You should go and see her, Fitz, she'd be delighted...cousin John would be able to tell you if she's well, email me if you need contact details. Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 30-06-2005 Bless her,belated birthday wishes to her.I dread the day when Gwen is no longer here.She is irreplacable Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 30-06-2005 She was in great form at TT time, when Nigel and I visited her...we were joined by Gail and David. Yuki had also visited her and given her a copy of her book...I am still trying to read mine!! It does Gwen a world of good to be visited, so I hope everyone who can, will, especially in the winter when the off-Island visitors have gone. You are guaranteed a lot of laughs..she's still a fantastic conversationalist and joker. Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 30-06-2005 The most treasured person on the Isle of Man is our Gwen (and David and Mo- off course). She is as witty as ever and was very chatty the Sunday after TT, I could listen to hear all day but I think she'd wear me out !! That's saying something. I rang her on her birthday and hope to see her again soon. Re: Special lady - Anonymous - 01-07-2005 I broke down just after Ballaugh on the Bulto one year and the first thing the marshal said, after finding out that I was ok, was, that I " must go and meet Gwen". |
