Gay Kindersley

  • ... that in 1985 Gay Kindersley naively introduced himself and Graham Lord to the Australian cricket team with, "Hallo folks, I'm Gay and this is my friend Graham"? Source: "Kindersley’s engaging naivety is illustrated by an incident in 1985, when he took the writer Graham Lord as his guest to a lunch at the Savoy Hotel that was being given to welcome the Australian Test side to England. Spying the Aussies in a corner of the River Room, the two went over to greet them: “Hallo, folks,” said Kindersley breezily. “I’m Gay and this is my friend Graham.” “Jeez!” said one of the Aussies. “Backs to the wall, mate.” " ([1])

  • Symbol question.svg Template:U, new, in time, long enough, sourced (even though largely from one obit), inline hook citation checks out, neutral. Needs QPQ, and this one line should be rephrased: "He retired as a National Hunt jockey in the same year." --Usernameunique (talk) 07:21, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
