BOB GODFREY (1921-2013)
Bob Godfrey was an Aussie, although he left there when he was a kid.
I met him at Kingston Polytechnic, where he was an 'illustrious' guest lecturer. He invited me to play on his cricket team, which I did several times, and that was great fun indeed as he and his mates had great humour and irreverence for everything.
He enjoyed the fact that he had an 'Aussie Fast Bowler' on his team (bit of a fantasy!).
Visited his very messy studio a couple of times, but can't remember seeing his Academy Award (1975) for which he was very famous.
I remember him as clever and witty and who enjoyed the Aussie connections. A remembered drinking mate, nice bloke, funny man.
