Bloody hell Darren. I thought he was only really known up here around these parts!! But yes that's the one. My Old Chap knew an old fella years ago who was a good mate of his. A guy by the name of Alan Newport, he's mentioned in one of his stories about the hunt, when they came through his land. Now he said that Blaster was pretty much true to his word but he nearly always managed to sprinkle some 'poetic licence magic dust' onto most things. But on the whole things were as he quoted them!! THE BEST after dinner speaker I have ever known and heard.
