RIP Dick Francis 1920-2010

Dick Francis has died today, aged 89, "of old age" according to a spokesman.
 
Others can tell his life story far better than Mrs R, so I'll leave them to it.
 
Telegraph - Dick Francis 
 
Times - Dick Francis 
 
and more related to his racing career in Sporting Life 
 
We Rigbys enjoyed his novels, they showed a spark of humour as well as a love of the racing world.
