Geoff Boycott!At a rained off one day game in the late seventies.
Gloucestershire's three overseas players were stood about near the refreshments tent but weren't having anything to do with the supporters. Then Boycott appeared and started signing autographs, I think my edition of Geoff Boycott's Book For Young Cricketers must have made a welcome change from the scraps of paper being thrust at him as he stopped and gave me an approving look, probably thinking "out of all these kids, this the one most likely to become a great criketer". I say "probably" because no words were actually exchanged due to us both being proper Yorkshiremen, and not gay or owt.
