Bud Tingwell

It was with great sadness that I read today of the passing of one of Australia's most interesting actors; Charles "Bud" Tingwell. My best wishes go out to his family and friends at this time. He was an amazing talent and lived a rich 86 years.

I was particularly saddened to hear of the news as I was talking with Bud and his manager Jo for the last two months about organising a photoshoot with him. We were down to working out a date that was good for all of us and for me to get down to Melbourne.

Just goes to show that you should take advantage of everything life gives you and live life to the fullest and don't put things off.

Rest In Peace Bud.
