Agreed Margo. A legend indeed. A good man No need to guess if he will go 'up or under'.

Sad news indeed. He was not only fast, but steadfast as well. A member of the immortal Lions squad of 74 and the Scarlets win over the Kiwis at Stradey Park. R.I.P JJ.

Yes Togo and Max Boyce wrote a poem about it called "The Day The Pubs Ran Dry".

I remember that and hymns and arias. What a truely great time that was for Welsh rugby and what actually got me watching rugby in the first place. Well that and the fact that it was always on in our house!
