Which son... he has 2 boys and a girl ... I could tell you some story’s ... I lived in the original house ,helped build his new house,old English bloke was the contractor......worked as a shepherd for ken and joy for 2 years.... heard joy was up Hawkes bay way these days... the kids were big into horses,gymkana......
Always wondered what happened to john Carrad... he was an awesome bloke,great with dogs,won a few trials,Kens manager for years!!
Now that would be an interesting conversation over a beer. How you go from working as a shepherd to working in airborne aluminium tubes.Quote:
