Rip Shane Warne


Recommended Posts

A friend of mine from when I lived in Australia moved to the Uk to do the customary few years at HQ.

His Mrs was a Nanny and Au Pair and through a series of lucky turns became known around the top top top end of rich folk in london (the story of a CEO of one of the worlds biggest banks taking them BOTH to the Caribbean for 3 weeks to do 2 hours of nannying a day and insisting they eat lobster and drink all day with the family is a cracker)

Anyway, just before they left the Uk they got a gig that was top secret and only after it was finished did we find out it was for Warney and Liz Hurley.

They said that Warne was an absolute legend and a really top bloke who treated them like part of the family… in their line of work you meet lots of arseholes, some really nice people but very few genuine decent folk.

RIP Warney

A terrible shock to hear of Shane Warner’s passing today. What a force of nature he was. He dashed my hopes all those summers of Ashes victory. He was just simply too good. Then in 2005 when we were finally in the ascendancy he battled to the very last showing what greatness really is. Rest in peace Shane.

Still can't process this now, it was less than two months ago he was commentating on the Ashes series and giving his incredible insights into cricket. Has to be in the top 3 if not the best cricketer of all time and a real character off the field to boot. Leg spin has to be one of the most difficult crafts to master in cricket.  Holy moly.
