Alfred Chacha was easily the person with the most interesting email. I always looked forward to reading what he had to say here and on other forums. His private messages were funny to the zenith and if he was writing late on a Saturday night, the consonance of his words was the equivalent of a choir of angels.
RIP my favourite journalist, library of knowledge and most excellent bon vivant! Yours was a life well lived. Mervyn PS. This is a photo he sent me a few years ago. Every time I see it I smile and shake my head. https://www.flickr.com/photos/45002663@N00/14906921698
