If any was else is local to Nottingham, I've also met Stuart Dixon a couple of times. He did a talk at our local gardening club, and also opened his garden with the NGS. Lovely chap.
my hair in it's unkempt state is curly and is also red, i'm forever being told by nice old ladies 'ooh don't you look like charlie dimmock' it happens all the time, i don't really take it as a compliment to be honest but smile sweetly as best i can.
While at glastonbury festival a couple of years ago i was watching a band with my friends and doing what you do at festivals and noticed this older couple on their fold out chairs nudging each other, next thing we overheard them "ooh you know who that is don't you? that's charlie dimmock" my friends knowing how it infuriates me just collapsed in fits of laughter
Arthur Billitt was a personal friend and though that connection I met most of the GW presenters of the late 1970/1980 era...including Percy Thrower, Clay Jones, Peter Seabrook, Geoffrey Smith, Gay Search and others.
