Thanks everybody for the birthday greetings. I did re-read some Just William stories and had a number of records that I have been listening to across the day.

A sad loss to radio.

I'm saddened to hear of Ian's death, loving this character Pike adding to the rich comic foil of the series which I feel still holds up.
