Very kind words, Matt, and let me assure you the sentiments you've expressed are mutual. Also good to see the estimable Mr Bailey on your list. The others, especially WingCo, sound invaluable and you're making me think I should perhaps have been less resistant to role models and guidance in my youth.
It's a little sobering to realize that of these ten people, just three are still alive.
Lovely tribute to important people in your life. Makes me reflect on those who shaped my life (far fewer than yours, Matt, sad to say)

Lovely idea for a post. And v proud to see Mr Roz on the list.
