Re: ice rink by David Ward 16 November 2008Hi SueYes indeed I do. Basil was responsible for opening a whole new way of life to me – I owe him a great deal. He taught ice dancing in the sport’s heyday. My partner was Dawn Riley (with whom I have sadly lost contact – does anyone know where she is now?). I lost met Basil about 15 years ago but he featured in The Times story (November 7th 1996) about expats living in Spain. He was then aged 73 and living with his friend long time lady friend Paddy (who used to run a club/bar in Hove Place). He used to be known in skating circles as the “Duke of Bayswater” a nicknane bestowed on him during his time teaching at the Queens Club in Queensway, London.What a character!David Ward Add your replyHiddenAdd your title Add your wordsWould you like to add some images (optional)?
