A keen sportsman all of his life George engaged in any sport involving a ball. You name it and he has played it. A founder member of Huntly RFC in 1968 George turned out for the team for 20 years man and boy !
A little older , slower and dare we say wiser now, he continues his love of ball sports albeit through the somewhat eccentric shape of a bowling ball. Other than that he enjoys watching sport on television.
