Have lived all my life in Bradford (mores the pity nowadays!!!) and have know of Geoff Brindley since I was an apprentice over 40 odd years ago. He was always known as the Monk, because of his appearance. Never without his monk’s habit, sandals and little leather pouch, dressed like this all year round, winter included. He would always say hello, more often than not with a smile on his face. He was rumoured to live on his own in various locations, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield and others. No one can ever remember him on a bus or in anyone’s car, ALWAYS WALKING, despite the weather. Once it was said that he had a spell living in Victoria Cave, above Settle, but never knew if this was an old wives tale■■? That I know of, Geoff would never accept any charity from people in the street, who may have thought him a vagrant, but instead a very proud man and choosing his own life style that suited him and bu__er anyone else!!!

A charming character in Bradford and I for one will be sad not to see him walking the distict
