Just to let everyone know that I got a message,
through my Champagne Trucking facebook site, from Kate Steer.
She is Johnny Mantle’s step daughter.
Apparently, John was involved in a serious motorcycle accident and badly hurt.
He was taken to Kings College Hospital and was in a bad way.
The latest that I have heard is that he has been allowed home,
but has been accepted for Stoke Manderville.
On top of his problems, his wife - Kate’s mum - has recently passed away
and they have the funeral to contend with.
I have details of the funeral, which is to be held at Worth Crematorium, at 10am on the 6th February.
I am sure that everyone will join me in wishing John a speedy and full recovery.
Mick
