Very sad indeed . He was a true gentleman full of great stories. I feel very lucky to have met him and spent an evening with him and his family in portugal a couple of years ago. My friend is heading out to portugal tomorrow for the funeral.

I should like to be the first to volunteer my commiserations. Let me be first.
In typical Jones fashion, however, I appear to be last.

I watched the one with the threshing machine last night. Jones's description of the mechanics of threshing are wonderful. "And this bit goes judda-judda-judda!"
Of course, he is first to volunteer to go up top and but the stalks in the thresher, and of course he falls in the hopper and loses his trousers.

Yes that episode is good. The spiv with the land girls. Godfrey taps aff. They all get drunk on potato wine and start pushing each other back and forth as the vicar attempts to bless the harvest. The historical details are quite informative.
Should be mandatory on the curriculum.
