Sadly on the night of the 27th David Speight passed away. He will be
remembered by us all for his magnificent achievement in building from
scratch, the barge "British King II" in his backyard. At least he got
to see her used as he wished although he was too ill to leave his
bedroom when BK2 was loaded and taken away for the film (yet to be
released) "Attonement". Here is a local link which features David.
