RIP Dick Francis

I didn't hear this sad news until Entertainment Weekly arrived today (click to enlarge):


























I love his wonderful stories which often have a horse-racing connection and always have interesting characters and excellent plots. I'm glad his son Felix will continue writing but I will always miss his unique writing style. I like to think Dick's in Heaven now with his beloved Mary, chatting with the Queen Mum about horses.
