It is, and there have been a few (young) black footballers who died recently.

My Mum used to work with him in The late 50s. She was a secretary at a wholesale ironmongers in Bristol and he was in the export dept. He used to bring a huge pile of sandwiches in with him to work which would be gone by morning break. Lunchtime he would be in the chippy for a very large portion of fish and chips. Used to be on the doors at the local dance halls in the evenings. He grew up quite close to where I lived in Bristol - Darth Vader was a Meader from Southmead.
RIP Dave Prowse. Done well for a lad from Bristol.

Never been tempted... My mate boasted he had got a far better rate in Prague on the BM.... But the Hungarian Forint he traded was worth nothing.

LOL. Oldest trick in the book those street money changers in Prague.

Nepal was a lovely place. I really liked Pokhara & Bhaktapour the later not being much left after the Earthquake. I have an habit of going places that suffer something horrendous after Ive left.
