    And you know Jimmy Young was a God send.

    After 8 years George came back as a bit of a boxer and did quite well for himself.

    Nothing like he did with the Grill but he earned a fair living.
    He made more money from the grill than he did with his boxing a bit like Paul Newman and his business of whatever he made.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Say what ya want, at least 5 quick stiffs were not included on an official record. That's something we can't say about a couple of today's mass manufactured 'devastating heavyweights'
