I remember a few years ago, setting up for Bury Beer Festival, Fred was across the road doing some chimney work. He spotted us preparing to put a banner up and quick as a flash was across, saying "don't bother lads, I'll stick it up for you" or words to that effect. He did too, in a trice and then nattered to us for a few minutes before resuming work. A very decent guy! Fred was a gentleman.
