May 10, 200620 yr It was brought to my attention whilst in Fort William that Tommy passed away during SSDT week. With everything going on I omitted to mention this on Trials Central. Plenty of you will have known Tommy and many of you who have ridden will have crossed swords with him at some point! Tommy was one of those characters that the Scottish is so well known for. Every year he drove up in his Reliant Robin via A and B roads because he wasn't allowed on motorways, but still he made it - even when he was well into his 90's. Many times I've seen that little three-wheeler parked up in a layby beside the "Time Control Start" sign like some kind of cop car and imagined him giving chase. It raised a laugh every time. He'll be missed by all who knew him. RIP wee man.
May 11, 200620 yr Tom's funeral is on 17th if anyone wants details mail me, would guess it to be in the Hemel Hempstead area. I will always remember Tom as the observer who had a fire next to his section! Did alot here in the South Midland centre.
