Algy Grimes found this article written by Nick Schumann for the blog after our match against Gog Magog in July 2022 Nick's funeral took place at Hitchin Crematorium on Tuesday at a service attended by a good number of JOG Seniors. A big theme of the service was Nick's career which took him all over the world. We reprint this anecdote, about his time in Hong King, as a tribute to the great man
A quick anecdote - I have been organising this match for several weeks with their captain Roy Fleetwood who as it turns out is someone I worked with in Hong Kong during the 80’s so we had a great time catching up as us old boys tend to do by trying to remember names, mostly unsuccessfully. The most worrying thing however is that neither of us managed to put two and two together until sitting having a drink on the patio after the round. A sure sign of old age!!
