Mrs Paulley as that's what I always heard when I had approved works in Bridport! 25 years of chatting, laughing, 'moaning' obviously but always with a cheery smile at the end of it. I have so much to say but don't know where to start, I guess my immediate working relationship started in 1996 when I applied for a role within Martins team, my interview with a very heavy cold humoured Martin quite a bit especially when I asked if the window could be opened and he responded 'no, lets make you suffer', always the joker but I was successful in being appointed and I suppose that's where my friendship with Martin began. A lot has happened over those years and we certainly had our ups and downs and disagreements and sadly quite a few of those were more recently and for that I am sorry. I am sorry I will never hear your voice again, I am sorry I didn't indulge in your most recent trip to New Zealand and the memories you always fondly shared. I still cant believe that you have gone and I will never see the array of summer and winter headwear bobbing along the wing. My thoughts are with your family who I know meant so much to you and you really have left a big void in all those who loved and knew you. Rest in peace Mr Farnham, gone but never forgotten xxx
