Well, a good innings by anyones standards.

What is depressing is that he was only 2 years older then me when he played Pa Clampett!

Still, it brings back happy memories of childhood sitting around watching the Hillbillies on the old Black and White Echo TV.

Aaah the Ceee-ment pond!

Take care, y'all!

Unfortunately this makes me feel my age - I loved that programme when I was younger. Ellie May and Granny were my favourites.

Had a good innings didnt he.
