I was saddened to read that actor, Roger Lloyd-Pack had died, perhaps best known for playing Trigger in Fools and Horses.

I saw him some years ago, walking through the village of Burley with a rucksack on his back. I gave him a smile as if to say, ‘I know you’, he smiled back.

Buster Merrifield, who was Uncle Albert, also came to Burley frequently and on one occasion, when I use to be the publicity Officer for the New Forest Marathon, was guest race starter.
