Default Philip Eden

Philip was in my Weather List as someone to whom I sent my monthly stats
when I was still doing them. He invariably replied with a kind comment,
some encouragement and sometimes just to thank me.

On one occasion, when we went on holiday and, because of an error on my
part we missed two weeks rainfall readings, he went to the trouble to
derive them for me on a daily basis from I know not where but the fact
that he took the trouble to do so speaks volumes.

Like Mike Tullet, he was a true gentleman and in this age when true
gentlemen are in short supply he will be sadly missed.

Go in peace, Philip, the world is a worse place without you.
