A good age and a fantastic career. I expect this may trigger a Yorkshire day of mourning...

What’s a Yorkshire day of mourning involve? Warm bitter and ferrets?

Fun fact - Parky could have been my uncle. He was obsessed with my aunty and would ride his bike over from Cudworth to Grimethorpe where she lived to try and get him to go out with her. She reckoned "He was a bit of a prat".
