Oh, how sad 😔
His was one of a very few accounts on Twitter that I really missed when I left last November. Such a lovely bloke, and his photos of Newfoundland were beautiful and evocative.

😬 And it’s Wednesday. When I was working, we called it ‘Whackadoodle Wednesday”. For reasons.

Neither dull nor particularly revealing, at least in the personality sense. Freddie tended towards being kind and charitable.
