    Never heard of him before this week and ended up watching a Tribute to him on the ABC last night. I loved the Interview with Kerry Obrien.
    Wow, his way with words is just stunning and his take on life is absolutely beautiful to my mind and felt I can relate to him a lot even though I've never met or heard of him before.

    Would be pure gold having a dinner conversation with such a man. RIP

    Saw him live in the early 90s I’m guessing. Was quite interesting. Loved his tv show. Read one of his books and enjoyed that too. Think he was a St. George supporter as well.

    He used to have a TV show in England which we enjoyed when we were there in the late 80s.
