Ot. Death of an Icon

[roger_ramjet]

I’ve run the same track that he achieved that magnificent feat on and played rugby just round the corner many times...long story.
An icon indeed but respectful memory rather than great sadness should be the tone for the death of an 88 year old. Fine innings.

he broke the record in Oxford, which suggests your rugby playing would have been of the real 15 man game rather than the breakaway 13 man version?
