@KOJournals I was there. What a war and elected BBB of C 'Contest of the Year'. Hell of a celebration afterwards back at the hotel. Ended up with just me and Trevor Cattouse about 5 00am and had to leave about 2 hours later to catch the bus, to catch the train back to the Paris airport.
Endured @Eurovision last night. One thing clear. With all the drear stuff from other countries the UK did not deserve to come last even if ours was not a likely winner. Why bother - we are never going to win with the current overt political voting @gbnews@BBCNews
@DonovanKasp Another one in the Barry Jones mould, thoughtful, articulate and someone who can prove to those coming after you don't have to be foul-mouthed and flash to be a 3-weight World Champion. Oh, and also like Barry, a member of the 'Legends of Boxing'.
@ClonesCyclone A really nice guy who was an inspiration to others including my son, Robin. Life can sometimes be very cruel to thoas who deserve it least.
@rocknrollofall Just a point - compare the articulate and reasoned way this ultimate rock star speaks compared with today's expletive ridden interviews you get so much of today. No stranger to using bad language myself but never in overtly public situations.
@Tom_Gray_Boxing Once asked former good class Middle/Lighheavy from the '40s and '50's, Ron Pudney, before a Benn fight how he would have handled him if matched. He replied, ' I'd have taken the first bus out of town !'
