This summer I have been to Abbey Hill, Nutwell, Langport, Boconnoc, Stithians and will be going to Honiton Hill and the Great Dorset. I have never asked for payment for any of the commentary that I have done since 1989, and have only been given help towards my expenses on two or three occasions, again not asked for. In all other cases I have covered my own expenses. I attend rallies and do the commentary because I enjoy it. This summer I have received a lot of help, particularly from friends at Boconnoc and Stithians, for which I have been very grateful. Oh, and so far as health is concerned, I suspect that my current position is rather worse than yours. I'll say no more.
