Colin Burt shares a chat and a photo with ... yes, you're right ... Dickie Bird ! The occasion was a company anniversary dinner at Durham Castle around 1999 when Colin was the official photographer and Dickie was guest speaker. Colin still has the bow-tie. He can make it spin and light up.
   

 

Bloodied but not bowed. Michael batted on after scoring a four off his top lip in the match against Daviparts (28 Aug 05) to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
