One of the best things about working on Cambridge Market in the very heart of the city is that you never know whose going to be passing through. After a night and a day of rain the hint of sunshine promised a better day. I had just finished setting up my stall when I saw a sharp looking dude walk by.
Colin Croft, one of the great West Indian fast bowlers, and now a tv and radio summariser was in Cambridge to play a part in a charity cricket match at Churchill College.
He was happy to pose for photos and sign autographs, a real gentleman.
