    BRIAN;
    I'm not one for honouring in such a way, certainly there are more deserving cases than these, if we have to go that route.


    I share your view on bill newman if it came to freeman of Dover, knowing bil, and working closely with him for 30 years i saw his many talents.

    He had a talent of making everyway feel at ease nomatter what there background, but he usd to also go that exra mile.

    I recall one small example with bill who asked me to go with him to calais to meet the mayor as bill had been a dover mayor in the past, and this was another great friendship bill had formed,.

    Bill spoke little french, and the mayor spoke little english, but that didnt deter bill, in bills broken french he managed to string a few words together and the two got on like a house on fire througout the long day, it was fantastic day, to see the 2 getting on so well, but this was again because bill would go that exttra mile to make an effort.
