I have just been going through some old video tapes taken by me at the TT and have come across, in sound, a short section when I was helping Denis in the OLD grandstand when he was reporting for the telephones, the camera being set up on a tripod to video both of us "at work"....I was correlating the slips of paper sent to Denis telling him of riders positions etc....so that his reports were up to date.

I must admit to being a bit emotional since seeing this again...

Denis actually phoned my Dad during the video who he hadn't seen in a while and my Dad was over the moon to chat again..my Dad died in 1995...

Such lovely memories and Denis was such a lovely man with an innocent face, but with lots of stories to tell...

God bless you Denis, another part of my TT life has gone........................

I hope you all share in my grief.
