I meet him at the ultra tune that is just down the road from me. I went up and said hello and he commented about how dressed up in cricket gear I was and how I brought my amazing adelaide and ashes glory dvd's and the gilchrist book with me. He was more then happy to sign them and we got into a chat about that wonderful day in Adelaide. I mentioned to him I remember watching England collapse that day and cheering every run in the run chase.

Some sports stars turn out to be arseholes when you meet them but Gilly was a very down to earth and welcoming man that left a great impression on me.
I always take all my ashes paraphernalia to ultra tune with me too. Just in case I run into someone famous.

Hit that for 4 but his feet went nowhere and playing well away from his body, same again. You aren't going to last long batting that way.
