RIP Sandy Martin. Thinking of his family. My Mrs briefly worked with Mrs Martin. He has twins exactly the same age as my youngest  |

"Was a stalwart of my Saturday night at the Rooms"
Was a stalwart of Swindon Radio in general.
Real shame, you got to feel for the kids...
RIP

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Feel like I grew up with him from Wednesday's nappy night at the Brunel Rooms through Disco Trekking and a familiar voice on the radio when back in Swindon. RIP

Used to see him on the bus from town to old town only 3 months ago - nonethewiser.
He also seemed to show a genuine interest in the town and the football club, even though he was from the north east. A great shame.

My missus looked after his twins in special care, so knew the family quite well. He was a proper gent apparently. Such a young age to pass away.
