Them were the days.

I know he was famous for that mitake, personally I liked the BBC weather man who came out with "bucket full of c**ts" on air.

Chippy dinner, Dickie Davis, then down to BP if we were at home, and an afternoon of wrestling and various other sports like speedway if Town were away. I can see that mallen streak in his hair and hear his voice in my mind.
