The Green Cross Code Man

[Gavin]

Yup, Darth Vader actor at 85.

That's a fair old age. I have his autograph somewhere as he came to Wick when I was in primary 1 or 2 to do a Green Cross Code man thing but all we wanted to do was get Darth Vader's autograph. I guess someone's Dad must have tipped their child off and from then on we couldn't have been less interested in how to safely cross the road. Was beyond exciting.

RIP.

Yeah, he came to us around 1984 I think. He asked questions in assembly and I got one right so got handed a GCC badge by the man himself. Only about 3 or 4 of us got handed them, then everyone got a badge on the way out! Mine had a goldy back and the hand outs were silver though so still special and I still have it.
