Phew !!! Iain not being in the first flush of youth, was mine the only heart to skip a beat on seeing this headline? Some older, frailer forumites might not even have made it to the happy contents of the message...

I met him when he attended the Goolwa WB show a few years ago, he signed my Macgreggor plans. It was early morning and I shared a cuppa with him. A gentle sort of bloke.

What's this "I", white man? It was "we" (although I must say he didn't sign any plans for me.) A thorough gentleman -- as aren't all we three? :)

Sorry Mike, didn't mean to leave you out. I caught up with him in the tea tent as well, only a few recognised him and I think you pointed him out to me as it happened. Didn't like to ask for a pic though.

What are you doing up at the witching hour Mike? I'm still dealing with an awkward dentistry outcome!
