Thats great to hear, he was such a fierce competitor on the paddock - reckon those forwards at Scotch will be developing a healthy streak of "warrior" under his watchful eyeOriginally Posted by Burgs

Yes, some good hard runners there, particularly #2 and #7, but the rest of the pack not far behind over the course of the year.
Apparently quite a few have been playing at Soaks since U5's.

He became extremely aggressive and abusive. So that's when one of our number gave him a bit of a slap. That seemed to do the trick.

I litereally did it last night at dinner. Invited a couple frmo a table next to me to sit with me (we were chatting across the restaurant :-/), they said their names, i said mine, then i had to ask them again. grrr. Jim and Pahlo (the second one starts with P i am sure!)Amen Brother...
I find writing things down helps me. I was on the RWC tour with Hodgo last year and meeting ~40 or so people for the first time; remembering names was a nightmare. So, on the bus I tried to write down everyone's name in a Note; and I had a couple of people ask if I could send it to them as they were struggling, too!

One of the most amazing memory feats I've seen was a school principle on an orientation camp train trip to the Blue Mtns. Kids from 4 different schools at a new Yr 11-12 college. Two carriages full IIRC. During the 2-odd hour trip he spoke to every one. Before we got to Katoomba he went back through and called everyone by name. I'm not 100% sure (54 years ago) he got them all but if he missed any it was only a couple.

Our Head used to walk through a school of @900 students, call every boy by their surname, engage with several every time asking after their parents with knowledge of circumstance and acknowledge any boy having a birthday.
Well before computers were the feature on an office desk.
In hindsight, I assume he had a very thorough diary he consulted for the birthdays before leaving the office to walk around, but it was pretty impressive.
