I've been doing a bit of a job in Balmoral Road this morning. Talk went from electric, through plumbing, to "I've not seen Keith for a long time, I wonder how he's going on, he's a very nice man"!
It was Tom's wife, Audrey Roberts.

I promised I'd ask on her behalf!

Audrey’s late husband Tommy was a very good plumber.
Next time you see her tell her I’m fine.
