It is with great sadness that I have to report the Passing of Alistair Frayling-Cork.
Al became a great friend who always found time to chat and share his knowledge of A7’s helping others.
Al, you will be missed.

Very sad news. Al. was a character. A lovely man who went out of his way to encourage people in their hobby to build and run...and race! Sevens.

Sad news indeed, although I had not crossed paths with Alistair for some years.
I first met the Austin Seven owning Frayling-Corks, Alistair and Robert more than 50 years ago, and I remember at the time their mother was driving a Jaguar XK120. A real motoring family.
A timely reminder (as if we need it!) that time passes so quickly.

Saddened by this news. I got to know Al through the Bert Hadley Championship. He was one of the characters and the day was always improved by his presence. I shall miss him.

Very sad news.
Al and Sue were just a brilliant team.
Bert Hadley events will be poorer for his loss.

That's sad news, I became friends with Alistair when I first started out with Sevens but lost touch with him after I emigrated may years ago. My condolences to family and friends.
