Message from Bernie Hynes
I received the following notice from Bernie Hynes C I Edwardians Secretary this evening;
C.I.Edwardians sadly wish to announce the death of their long-standing question-master Malcolm Bowstead (“Mal”).
He passed away peacefully on Wednesday at the age of 89.
He was never a quizzer himself but presided over the C.I. for many years as QM (with his mate Dud) and will be best remembered for using his gavel to bring proceedings to order.
He will be greatly missed.
