I walked past Anthony Howard in the corridor at a client's office a couple of years ago. I recognised his face but couldn't place the name: "that journalist bloke" I thought.

Now I know his name. smiley - rose

I had a most excellent book by him and Jeremy Hands called Kiss Me Goodnight Sergeant Major about the Falklands campaign.

I must dig it out and read it as a tribute to a really really good journalist.
