Sad news and another MND loss. Paul Rendal was a great player that was kept on the England sidelines for far too long and made his debut at age 30 whilst we had a revolving door of props, most just not in his league.

Prince of the City was a great movie.

Took no shit as a politician

[dogmeat]

@MiketheSnow Consistent with her whole life then. She was a bit of a political firebrand even in her pomp as actor in the 70's. Always seemed to turn up at a picket line.
