trenchfoot 4,243 Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I was driving down a narrow lane yesterday. There was another car in front of me. On the narrow lane, the old bloke driving the other way pulled over to let the car in front of me drive past. He had to back up a little to let me through. His face was bright red. I could see him getting wound up as I started to pass him. The fella even put his window down to vent his anguish at having to stop to let me past. As I drew level, I returned the favour, and wound down my window. The old lad started to swear at me, but before he hit his stride I asked him " are you Ronnie Pickering?!" he said no, so I drove on 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
*The*Field*Marshall* 674 Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Gotta share this, forwarded to me earlier - this is the man I made reference to alongside my brother (dressing drag) . . When in Vegas he spots Tyson near by, apparently performed some acrobatics in getting past his minders to practically land on top of Iron Mike - his daughter said she thought Tyson was going to whack him when Nige said "do you remember me , I was at your fight with Spinks!" She said after Tyson looked him over, recognised him as 'one of his kind' he was then happy to have his photo taken with him . . A former pro himself, as hard as nails - take 1 to land 1 kind of fighter. He once asked me to give his regards to Barry McGuigan, who remarked when I mentioned him "they don't make them like him anymore"! Sparring partners for a time I think. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stealthy1 3,964 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I was talking to a lad from Hull the other day, he said that Ron Pickering was well known in Hull, http://www.rpmf.org.uk/ But Ronnie Pickering was not known by anyone past his garden gate, so it seems Ronnie has been living off Ron Pickering's reputation.
