Kayakman Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 1 hour ago, Bearman said: Richard Leakey https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-59833131 I'm sorry to hear of his passing. It is always hard for a son to escape the cloak of famous parents and forge his own path...Richard had to to do this and he did it well and made his own name for himself. I enjoyed some of his online lectures and he seemed to know his stuff. I'll always remember one lecture he gave when he stated that the Earth could sustain about 4 billion humans (Max.) Sad to see such a person of quality go. RIP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There'd been trouble on the fans' bus previously so that week's bus was cancelled. My mates and I ended up walking 14 miles home. Would have been 12 but we diverted on the way to walk two girls to their door. Got home about 5am and got collected for work at 7am. Great night. 2 Under Scrutiny by the Right-On Thought Police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedford Roughyed Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 2 3 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
