Craig's funeral
Craig Hinton was cremated yesterday at a quiet service in Portchester Crematorium. It was well attended by friends past and preset. Played in to the strains of the Doctor Who theme - made sense if you knew him - and played out to Total Eclipse of the Heart, it was tastefully done. How his mother coped I don't know. I suppose you just have to.

Inevitably the gathering afterwards turned into a bit of a social event. It was good to catch up with some old friends, all of whom agreed we need to get together again before another funeral unites us. Whether this will happen I don't know but I hope so.

Goodbye, Craig. It was a nice service, just 40 years too early.
