I decided to except an invitation this year to the Boxers Writers Dinner, Guest of Fred Burcombe. Sat next to Gary Mason who kept me amused all night, the guy is as funny as Fuck, miss Him on telly was a great pundit. Met again my old sparring partner Billy Walker Jesus, seventy and doesnt look a day older than fifty. Bobby Neil lovely man still smiling, Big Frank seem to enjoy himself. Got grabbed from behind and cuddled by Chris Eubanks, turned round and the first thing He said Scraps, throwing a left Hook, Always turn it. He said He was explaining it to his Son the other Day

. It was all our yesterdays. Then started explaining to James Degale all about Boxing for the next half Hour you could see the kid trying to escape but could He Fuck. One Brilliat night highly recommended

Its the 1st time Ive excepted in ten years, forgot what I was missing. Kept going outside for a ciggy with my smoking partner Mick Williamson, for the 1st time in years we were smoking His. Interestingly someone said what do you notice H about this year, it was Gary I think. Said I didnt know, Gary said theres no young ones here well He said 20 top whack. He explained theres nothing coming through, I thought sad that but make Him wrong. Talked at length to Jefries well I gave him a bollocking boxed crap last time but a good prospect, nice Kid. Frank Maloney looked great, as did Terry Spinks looks better now than 10 years ago

. Jarvis Astaire looked good thought He was dead.

The London area Ex-Boxers Association used to have their do at our students union when I was there, always the best night to work the bar, quality bunch of guys, and great tippers after a few beers!

I was always impressed with the camaraderie and friendliness of them as a group.
