It is my sad duty to let the Almanac community know that Paul Daffey’s father Terry passed away peacefully earlier this week after a long illness. When Daff and I were setting up Malarkey Publications in 2007, Terry (who was an accountant) formalised the whole thing. He was a great family man.
Our thoughts are with Daff and the whole Daffey family.
