We're deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Graham Barnes last weekend. Graham was our longest trading customer, he'd been coming in for over 50 years! He joined us for our 170th anniversary dinner last year, swapping his trademark blue dungarees for a tuxedo! We were all very fond of him and will miss him. Our deepest condolences to his family for their loss.
