          Contract.

          I used to drink with the finance director of Perpetual (now Invesco) who was a keen bridge player, so keen that he used to play in tournaments (alongside the likes of Sharif) where the purse to play was fifty large... winner takes all

            By the time he turned 80 in 2012, he had quit his 100-a-day cigarette habit

              My godmother used to partner him in Bridge quite often many years ago

                I worked with a chap who was born in Alexandria. He was a top, top bloke. Leaves me with a good impression of people born in Alex.

                  Every time I see a CUK thread about death of a celebrity I think "Gordon Bennet, surely the other CUKers can't be as ancient as me?"
