He's a w.........


The gentleman you can see in the foreground above is none other than Sir Garfield Sobers, generally regarded as the finest cricketer ever to play the game.

I had the great privilege of seeing him speak earlier today as guest of honour (him not me) at a special lunch at Headingley Stadium. 

I was there in the company of three friends I meet every June for the annual "364 Club" event; you can see them below.  


And yes, on left, that is John Kettley (Is A Weatherman).

John was saying that he's been having trouble with a neighbour.

"It came to a head in December," he reported, "when he leant across the fence and called me a wanker."

As if.
