We lived next door but one to Geoff and his family in the 80’s. Still see his kids Lewis and Emma about as they are similar ages to myself

It’s going to take some strong men to carry his coffin - he was a big lump last time I saw him

Bugger. He was a legend.

I remember an interview where he said the doctors warned him he wouldn't see 50 if he kept up all the strongman stuff.

I suppose 75 is a bit better.

Can't have been that bad a life in the jungle - there must have been a good place for a shave and haircut (probably a Turkish barbers, in which case it's fair bet there was a nail bar and vape shop too).
