Roger Squires – RIP
Many of you will have, like myself, solved today’s Guardian Prize puzzle and learned of the death of Rufus at the age of 91.
I did wonder about including the previous sentence but I notice that another website has already made the connection.
Roger retired as a setter in 2017 and was featured in The Guardian. There is also a Wikipedia Page.
I had the pleasure of meeting Roger, albeit briefly, in Birmingham in 2011 in The Old Contemptibles, where he performed a few magic tricks.
