1: GBE Accounts VAT
2-8: Visited Peter Rich AA Dipl ‘my Professor’ in Hospital during his last few days suffering from organ failure.
All his paperwork is in order, loving the 24 hour room service, being fed ice cream and sipping berry juice, getting ready to swoop amongst the stars.
Peter slipped away that weekend, a celebratory gathering is being planned.
We all have great memories of Peter and so much to thank him for.
