I believe Phil Barker will be 90years old on Saturday November the 5th.
Does anyone have an e-mail or physical address for him?
Perhaps we could send him best wishes from FANATICUS

Great idea Cromwell.
This is from the WRG website:
“Directors (in alphabetical order) Phil Barker, Chris Hanley, Sue Laflin-Barker and Nigel Spinks. Secretary: Chris Hanley Chairman: Sue Laflin-Barker.
To contact any one of us, please email our Christian name followed by "@wrg.me.uk"
Our partner Steven Bowns died earlier this year and will be greatly missed. Despite this loss, our long-term aim is still to produce as many as possible of the original WRG books as quickly as possible.”

It may also be nice to send a list of fanaticus members to show that his work has been well received. A bit like a youtube video scrolling the list of patreon supporters.

I will send the e-mail tonight and will include the members on this site.
No, I will not tell one of my jokes the poor chap is 90 and as my jokes are so rib rackingly funny it could prove too much!

Thank the Lord! No bad puns... I am not near 90 and the last still causes small twitches at times!
BTW, I think Phil is 89... but not sure.
Thanks for doing this for us! It is a great gesture.

In fact I was not sure of his exact age just the birthday which is why I left his age out!
