Richard Milligan?

[Saint Paul]

Has anyone had recent contact with Richard Milligan (Big Hands Milligan).  I have tried to contact him on his mobile a number of time over the last two weeks but to no avail.   Not spoken with him since last year.   Very unlike him not to respond so somewhat concerned.

 

Be grateful for any info.

He’s Blackhands, not Big Hands. I used to have a number but no longer, sorry.

[Saint Paul]

Sorry - Blackhands it is!   Must be an age thing - (on my part).    Thanks for the info though.

Oh dear, he must be getting on a bit now. He never struck me as the type to totally retire and hang up his spanners though...

He helped me with my boat a few years back and travelled some distance! Very helpful and knowledgeable chap as you no doubt know. Unfortunately I do not know his current work availability but the mobile number I have for him ends in 60. If that's not the one you have, drop me a PM and I can share it with you. 

 

P.S Despite my name/initials, I can assure you I am not the same chap.

I have a number for him also ending in 60. 

 

Starts with a "0" too.....

I’ll raise you a ‘2’ before the 6

He still did a Russell Newbury here(he has serviced it and rebuilt it once for the owners for the last 24 years) last year, but was cutting his workload down, I believe he has also sold his wonderful boat.

No comment, for fear of giving too much away.

 

Not that I guess he would give a damn if his whole number was listed on here!!

If you mean Fly then yep. Had the pleasure of moving that one twice and still remains one of my fave boats Ive ever moved 🙂

Afraid I got the number ending in 60 too..😀

Richard is very much still working hard, has spent the last couple of weeks rebuilding my RN. As stated above a really helpful and knowledgeable bloke who works hard. I’ve spoken to him and he is happy for his number to be passed on - 07973 826260
