I have to say that a number of people have departed at an early age recently & it does appear that being overweight is a recurring theme. I don't wish to be disrespectful, but can't help saying.
I met him briefly once when he did an exhibition where I was on holiday. I'd gone to reception for something or other and he was there waiting too. We exchanged a few words and he wished me all the best for the rest of my holiday.
One of my claims to fame is beating him at 501 about 20 years ago. I don't claim to be any better than your average pub player so was well chuffed at the time. mind you, he was absolutely shit-faced at the time..........................................
