I got to know Tommy around 2006 when I first joined Simon and Jack’s merry band at the Stoop and associated pubs. Despite ‘Tommy’s Law’ he was always interested and empathetic in the ups and downs of life….something that was very much noted. I always looked forward to his company and anticipated getting to know him even better in the years to come. It is with great sadness that I can no longer enjoy that future, and a reminder to seize the moment i.e. go to the pub more often.
I will always think of Tommy as I settle down in my seat at the Stoop, and make a point of toasting him with a pint in the pub afterwards!
With love,
Jon and the Wixes

Hi Jon there was a story of Neil meeting a famous rugby player at the ground, I think it was the captain, I can’t remember the details unfortunately, any idea? I know he was chuffed to bits….
