This month Barry Cuff has chosen postcards in honour of his friend Roger Guttridge, choosing places that he lived, worked and went to school: ‘Both Roger and I had a great love of Dorset, and he was willing to explore and write on some of my ideas – the Dorset fingerposts, a fatal shooting at Winterborne Kingston, the Cuff surname and wrigglebacks.
All of them appeared in various publications!
Together we had just finished a book on Wimborne, due to be published next March – sadly Roger’s last. We were already talking about the next book, to be on the North Winterborne valley.
His death is a great loss to the county.
