It isn't pumps, quite a few of us on here are late 40's early 50's. How many will not be around in 2024?Sad

Really bad having life, and time, punctuated by the loss of such good people.

Haven't heard his name for many years so I wonder what he ended up doing.

"It isn't pumps, quite a few of us on here are late 40's early 50's. How many will not be around in 2024?"

That would be a miracle from where I'm sitting....:-(

if you have ever watched the bbc documentary series 'coast' mainly filmed around the coast of britain and a few other countries like ireland and france then mike smith was  the helicopter pilot in a lot of them and also i think that was part of his business
