Only discovered this recently, Tony was a wonderfully funny man, “colsie, would you like a mint young man? I always take the top one in case there is a dirty thumb print” He loved talking about everything and was such a diverse man. The years I spent with him at the Post Office are treasured memories. I wish I could have said goodbye, until we meet again old friend.

Very sad to hear of the passing of Mr B.
A genuinely warm funny man.
When I was at school a lad in my class told me how an 'old man' was working on some scaffolding across the street from his walk home and he took the mickey out of the old man's hat. The man dropped from the scaffold ran across the road and chased him through Littlemore subway with amazing speed and caught up with the lad. He said 'what is wrong with my hat?' then turned and walked back laughing. I said to my classmate that's not an old man that's Mr B. He was as strong as an ox!
My condolences to the Brolly family and all who knew him.
