Greatly saddened to learn of Mike's death, and all love to Ruth. How clearly l remember many heady nights at the European, dancing (well, attempting to in my case, hoping nobody would notice me in the middle of the floor) to Bee Gees and John Travolta songs, and later many mornings at Champions, watching matches from the N Hemisphere.
