Marmite!! Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 I closed the thread last night as I was witness to the final outcome to this & did not want anyone posting anything on here before the family were informed.. Thread will remain closed, not open to speculation or discussion. RIP Andy.. From [h=6]The War and Peace Show (Organisers)[/h] On Thursday 19 July the War and Peace Show organisers were made aware that event attendee Andy Fernando had not been seen by his friends since Wednesday 18 July. We immediately contacted the Police who launched a missing person investigation. War and Peace Show officials and management were made available to assist in anyway they could throughout the search. The police have confirmed that they have found a body, which was today confirmed as Andy. Our thoughts at this time are with his friends and relatives.
