The Asparagus Kid.

thought he died few weeks back

Is that right penzance?

wokin for B'ham city council sweeping up in centenary square tellin everyone how he used to show off his Wad of £50 notes

He'll be upset to hear that, penzance.

If he did, really sorry, honestly did

Thought you were joking penzance.  I havent heard anything.

I used to bet with him at Worcester when I was in that neck of the woods.

He was at the Ebor meeting

the EX took him for a few quid

was thinking of mike burton.

Was that the Asian girl?

thats the One sandwich would you have given her a portion?

last i heard he was in Argentina watching the Bullfighting. Serious Bullfighting has always been his Number 1 spectator sport. He has been all over the world to watch it.

i thought he was scouting for qpr till warnock came looked at the exs and said  ffks sake

He was very tanned, very loud and used to work at the dogs.

A hardy man - the type that last for ever, imo.
Last I saw of him was a year or two ago, he seemed to be at the laying game on the Exchanges phoning fro tracks like Ludlow, Worcester, and Wolver.

I was wondering what happened, but somebody said he had a bit of domestic trouble.
Nice bloke, imo, but I ain't never had no dealings with him and only know him from the courses.

Had a great gig at Loftus Rd, put up a very decent card for a lot of matches in the Championship last year.

Went to Miami for a month on a bullseye (sterling) and came back with change - just kidding asparagus.
