@jegga By LinkedIn standards, it's pretty modest....
Good mate of mine knows Oliver well - close friend. Rates him highly as an all round good bloke

I have fond memories as a kid travelling to Auckland to watch a test. We pulled into a motel and my Dad told me to get out of the car. Got out of the car and Bryan Williams was standing there, shook his hand and I was so stoked. Pretty sure he owned or ran the motel from memory.

I have as he has a unique name for NZ and o have a bunch of old rugby books. But I couldn’t have picked him from the pic.
There’s a couple with quite odd names , Beethoven Algar , Tori ( sanitorium ) Reid .

I was more referring to his French (?) surname but agree there have been some interesting names.
The Reid family have continued to use Tori down through the generations - I don’t know whether they use the full name or just Tori though.

Steve McDowall is handy with a lawn mower:
*Following his return to New Zealand McDowall turned his attention to the lawn mowing and garden care industry.
It started when his son was wanting to earn some pocket money and dad set him up with some gear; sensing an opportunity to tap into the market McDowall senior did some investigating and says the business, with the help of a business partner, has gone from clipping 14 lawns to around 2500.*
