Anyone remember Stuart Duthoit from Burnley, nicknamed Dewi, from the Casino and Mecca from 73 onwards?

He is back for a short visit after 20 odd years in Oz. He has has a terrible time over the last few years. His wife died, he lost his job in tragic circumstances, had some other major personal problems to deal with, then a couple of years ago he was hit by a truck whilst getting out of his car and suffered head injuries. He is about 80% recovered, but progress is now slow.

He will be in the Rising Sun Inn in Blacko, between Burnley and Skipton at 8pm on Sat 15th for his suprise 50th Birthday party.

If anyone is in the area please call in for a pint. He is a great guy and was a real extrovert, plus a bloody great dancer.

He used to sit in the Casinos "Burnley Corner" with me, Johnny Roscoe, Fuse, Judy, Dave Phillips, Toofy, Greeny and too many others to mention.

sad story Brian.

Lets hope a few more people remember Stuart and ensures he has a great 50th birthday party.

Don't know him, but hope he has a lovely time at his surprize party
