Glenn worked with us as a Labourer with us just after he was sacked at Woking. He was a top bloke indeed.

Rohan's uncle Eric, (Young), is a solicitor in Slough. That certainly isn't a crap job, (although Slough is).

Apologies to any Slough residents who may be reading this.

Oi, Slough is my original home town. C'mon you Rebels!
Saw Eric Young up the Wexham Park in the Glory Days of Vauxhall Conference. All of which explains why I plotted my getaway to Maui.
Anyway, as it happens, you're not wrong about Slough
