A message from Hugh’s family:
We’re heartbroken to say that after months of illness Hugh died peacefully on the morning of the 29th of June. Widely admired by friends and colleagues, he was a beloved husband to Marilyn @lyrebird1 and adored father to Owen and Harry @MondayStory.

You can only wonder how many tennis majors Rod Laver could have won
He ended on 11 with two grand slams despite missing 21 consecutive tournaments at the height of his career due to the amateur/professional divide
The all-time record may have been his

Another Orienteering "scandal" at stage 1 of #POM2020??? Many runners must have crossed either a forbidden wall or forbidden vegetation. M21E: in top 10, 3 runners have an impossible split time to 5th control, including the winner which also posted gps at Strava. #Orienteering
