DOUGIE BAGGOT - R I P (loss of a legend)

Those of you that have lived in the South, or around horse racing in Joburg, will know the great Dougie Baggot.
I was sadly advised yesterday that he had suffered a stroke and passed away at the age of 84.
This quiet, soft spoken man was known for his kindness, and if you were a friend, a friend for life, but heaven help you if you got on his wrong side.
I attach a photo that he gave me several years ago showing himself and, a very young Arnold, at some body buiding competition.
RIP old friend :( :(
