Can't vouch for the booming voice as I haven't been down to his place for over a year, but judging by his written humour bemoaning the local supermarket not stocking his favourite beer, he still has it....lol
I'm trying to work out hia age now, as he was never actually as old as many assumed (including me). When I first got reunited with him only a few years ago, he was telling me how 'young' he actually was - and if memory seves me right he had only passed 60 then?
I'm sure there's many years in him yet!!!!
