    I had known Graham from when we were kids at school Cromwell rd Swinton he was a character I remember one. Tim I went into the toilets at school heard all this flushing in one of them when graham came out I said what’s happened he brought a fish to school he caught at weekend and trying to get rid of it he said he was trying to drown it I laughed when he said that anyway he was very good at rugby at school and in my opinion was one of Swindon’s greatest ever players I was disappointed when he wen to Australia. however I wet over to stay with him and Sandra on four occasions always had a lovely Time I left him in Sydney in March 94 and never saw him again I am still in touch with Sandra reds Allan
