This project is down to one man a radio presenter and a talented musician called "Big George Webley" who I had the pleasure of knowing. I've laughed with him, nearly cried with him and even fell out with him but like a true working class man he was pleased to hear from you and say hello. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-13327591
He was such a talented musician/composer just read the credits of "Have I got news for you" and I'll always remember his wise words of advice "never give up the opportunity to keep your mouth shut", I can hear him saying that now...
I had the pleasure of sitting in a radio studio broadcasting with him, he was such a patriot and I'll always remember a broadcast about the "Cenotaph" in Whitehall with him. If you click on the link below you can hear the piece, to me the poem and the last post is a befitting honour to a wonderful kind talented man called "Big George Webley"

The colour of the bollards says it all for me...
RIP Big George, I loved listening to your show.
