Hi Rossim
How are you? Not seen you for a while.

Might the second be RAMBLING SID RUMPO? (Kenneth Williams on "Round the Horne")

Hi Chris
Thanks for that. It's worth a try as I've been struggling with these last two for weeks.
I'm fine, having had covid over the holiday period, but recovering now.

All the answers are related to sport but thanks Tyke.
I was thinking of some sponsorship by a drinks firm but could be way off.

Thanks so much UseBy. I think that might be it and it's better than anything we could come up with.

No probs (if it’s right!). You pretty much prompted my attempt with your last post.

I think that’s very good UseBy, I had been scratching my head over that one.
I also like Chris’s answer (provided rambling counts as sport?), but note it’s Syd not Sid (I only know because I read the Wiki entry :-)
