It was with some sadness that we learned of the death of maverick TV chef Keith Floyd who was so inspirational to so many people in the 1980's and 1990's.  Keith is someone we have met several times, as he has strong associations with Devon of course.  We often saw Keith popping down the shops in Wellswood in Torquay in his open-topped sports car, but we shall remember him best for when he owned The Maltster's Arms in Tuckenhay near Totnes, and for the best ever sausages he used to sell at the bar - a plate of sausages in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.
