Surprise Call9 May 2020 13:35
Apologies for being off Topic,
Anyways....
Today would have been my dear Dad Bruno's 96 Birthday.. So I am just pottering around on the patio at about 10 am this morning, drinking my Coffee, when my phone rings..
No Caller ID: normally I wouldn't answer, but I did.. the caller in a soft voice, asked to speak to Bruno. I initially thought it must be an insurance/bank phishing call, but then I thought, what if its an old friend etc who isn't aware that Dad passed away 18 Months ago...
So I said, its Robert, Bruno's son.... To cut a long story short, it was Garry Mabbut, Ex England and Spurs Captain, and he was calling to wish Dad a Happy B Day etc.. We then chatted on the phone for over 10 mins... He said he has been calling people/fans to see if he or the club can help in any way in these times of need... (NB. we have been lifelong Spurs Season ticket holders..) What a lovely call to receive, and maybe an indication that even PLC's are starting to realise that they are nothing without the community that supports them...
Stay safe
