840.0. "The Official Murray Walker appreciation note." by NSDC::SIMPSON (A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers) Tue Nov 07 1989 16:57

OK folks,
	there's been quite a run on MW quotes today. Now we all know that his
commentary is sometimes a bit wayward - he makes mistakes and seems to miss
or recognise very late on some of the most obvious action on the screen. 
However, so saying, he is a bit of an institution (or is that where he should
be put?).

	MW is a very important man. As an example, Nigel Mansell recognises
this. I remember that he attended MW's birthday party on the eve of the Mexican 
GP in '86. He got food poisoning which kind of sums Murray up - well meaning
but bumbling....


	All of you must have your favourite anecdotes about him. Fill 'em up
here. I'll kick the ball off.
