Hi Jo'I was devastated to learn of Nino's death, which i only picked up recently through the internet. I worked at St Margarets Lodge Hotel in season 74 -75. Nino came in as manager just after Scot Ridler left the company. We didn't really know how to take Nino at first - he was quite strict. But, we all soon realised what a fantastic guy he was and how much he knew his stuff. I worked in the main bar - made a lot of cocktails, some for you i'm sure. After the 1975 season ended i came back to the UK. But, i never forgot Nino. Always used to mention him to friends when out and about - especially if we got bad service anywhere. "Hey my old boss Nino Campelli would not have tolerated that" This was a regular remark. That cheeky smile - i can see it now. My old boss - dear Nino.Take care Jo - all the best for the future.Anthony Mead.

Hi Jo,
I remember Nino with great affection. I worked at St Margaret's Lodge in Guernsey. Nino was a top manager and a brill guy.
All the best.
