Farewell, my dear old friend.

Thanks for all the laughs, the Rugby, the beer, the songs,

and all the great times we’ve shared.

But moreover, thank you for your enduring friendship.

‘So pull up a chair,and stand me a drink,

And a tale I’ll tell to you,

Of Dead-eyed Dick and Mexican Pete,

And a harlot called Eskimo Nell’

Who’s going to care for dear old Nell now you’re gone……!
