I've badgered, pestered, and harassed this guy for years. He FINALLY agreed to be a guest.

He's been an opponent. He's been a teammate. He's been a colleague. He's ALWAYS been a friend. I love the guy.

This is part 1. There MUST be more.

Happiness is, was, and always will be Roddy Deans Shaped.

Murrayfield is a special place to me. I've had so many happy moments there, shared with so many people. I could watch the grass grow.
