Hard to believe it has been a year...and we still miss our friend and pool champion John Faye.
The Olympic Pools & Fitness Centre plan to toast the great man on Friday 29th on poolside at 11:30 am. The cafe side lane will be closed off, and refreshments provided. There is no order of events or structure…rather a time to reflect, remember and cherish.
We will be there (with the newspaper) to add our thoughts... please feel welcome to come along.
