I received a very sad e-mail from Peter Coeshott of Bangkok. It is with a VERY heavy heart that I must pass on the news that Tim "Magic" Hughes, founder of Harrier International, died on 23 January 1998. I've included a copy of the e-mail below. I have also included a copy of the e-mail I received as the "official" announcement from the Bangkok hash. Please join with me in raising a mug to the memory of Magic. On-on
