Educated in Johannesburg, he joined a local advertising agency after university and soon fell in love with business.

He made the pilgrimage to London in 1961 and worked as an account executive on the introduction of Kerrygold butter into the UK.

A lover of cricket, he considers his greatest achievement bowling the West Indian legend, Joel Garner, first ball in a pro-am 6-a-side tournament." [Taken from http://congregation.ie/friday-ashford-castle-eveni.html ]
