Can remember seeing him most days stood on the corner of Ridgeway Lane / Wharnecliffe Gardens on my way to work, with the customary mutual thumbs up, or in The Yeoman. Not sure about anyone else but he didn't have to say anything at all to make me laugh, just the way he swanned about was enough! Can't believe he's gone, thought I'd go before him and I'm only 47.
My memory might be playing tricks, but I'm pretty sure he read out the teams once at Ashton Gate over the PA, would have been early 90s and I'm certain the opposition was Tranmere. There I was sat in my seat waiting for the teams to be announced, then his tones came over the PA instead of Phil Tottle's "in gawl, Eric Nixon" etc.
