I have just had a phone call from Peter, lasting about15 minutes.

He would like to thank everyone for their calls and texts over the last few days. He has been completely overwhelmed by the amount of people getting in contact. Peter apologised for not getting to talk to everyone, but was very keen to let everyone know how much it means to him.

With regard to the funeral, Peter said that anyone that wished to attend was welcome, but that the wake was being limited to family only in accordance with Jean's wishes. He also mentioned that he was hoping to do something more suitable for the pool league at a later date.

Although Peter is planning to have a few weeks off from pool, he assured me that we hadn't seen the last of him - he just needs a bit of time to adjust.

Once again, many thanks to everyone who's been in touch with Peter...he really is very grateful for the support.
