Well Taff, you've had a great life full of many adventures and you've helped and mentored a lot of young people. It was great to chase a few sheep with you many years ago. Many of the funniest stories and oneliners I know came from you. It was great to bump into you in Ashburton quite by accident early this year. Travel well Taff.
