Oh no…..RIP….Big Al….RIP.
Many tales can be told about Alan in The Covered End, especially from the 60’s.
Originally from Cherry Orchard Estate….was a giant of a man with a big booming voice and a huge laugh.
If Big Al was in the room you knew about it.
He would have been about 74.0 -

Alan was 75,he had suffered from lung cancer for years,I used to see him quite a lot at Maidstone cancer clinic when I was having my prostate cancer treatment,although a bit frail his personality never altered.SoundAsa£ said:Oh no…..RIP….Big Al….RIP.
