Newnham  and  George  Woods’  and  Pat
       Burns’  lunches  at  Brighton  Golf  Club.
       Peter  also  rode  in  the  Mince  Pie  and
       Mulled Wine club runs around Richmond
       Park which Kav organises each year just
       prior to Christmas.


       Peter’s funeral was held at Chichester
       Crematorium on Friday, 19th October and
       was  attended  by  many  friends  and
       members of his family. The celebrant, in
       his reading and remembrances of Peter,
       made great emphasis on how much Peter
       loved his bike; in fact, Peter had covered
       some 80,000 miles on the bike against
       just 50,000 miles on the car mileometer!




                                                         Most  of  his  bike  riding
                                                         was done in aid of the
                                                         British          Heart
                                                         Foundation.


                                                        A  kind,  compassionate
                                                         gentleman  of  the  old
                                                         school  who  will  be  very
                                                         sadly  missed  by  Carol,
       his children, Lawrence, Mark, Lisa and Clare and his nine grandchildren. To
       the last he held the De Laune Cycling Club in great esteem and his De Laune
       vest and crash helmet were in prominent position on his coffin as it was
       brought into the chapel.


       I represented the club at the service and a wreath was sent on behalf of the
       De Laune.
