Sorry off subject Henry, but I know you were a writer on the Daily Telegraph many years ago and one of your colleagues was Robert Philip, a very talented and humorous writer. Sadly Robert passed away a few days ago. His memorial service is in Troon next week.

Oh no, that’s so sad. Used to love spending time with Robert. Fantastic writer. I went up to visit him once, fairly chaotic evening, typically. Lovely writer, lovely man. Thank you for telling me, Ian. The Telegraph had Robert and Martin Johnson for a glorious mischievous period and I used to love going in the office to hear the sports editor read the letters they got from much-meltdown-in-the-shires.
