    Ah yes, I thought it was real progress when he stopped using "son" at the end of every sentence. Sadly it was not to be.

    Yes, if one is going to have a fantasy trophy residence, it should be in Swindon.

    I think he claimed to have a boot full of martial arts equipment just in case Churchill got up to any 'funny business' during their 'meet up'. Maybe it was marital aids.

    Also when were discussing weights and he said he was 15 and a half stone because he had gone on holiday but his usual weight was 14 stone.
    He never told us that he went to Melton Mowbray for his hols.

    Was that the case when he was banned as Zoiderman, then?
    No, I think Zoiderman/OH has some quite substantial mental health issues to resolve - sadly he didn't seem to see that.

    RIP Old Hack .
    And you disagreed with the notion that his children should be well protected in case of an accident?

    But it's a shame because it seemed as if he was mellowing out somewhat.
