Royden Hodgskin

Oud, getroud en lelik.  Married Sheryl Victor 45 long years ago. We’ve been together since I was 13.  Three kids and four grandchildren.

Awarded (reluctantly) full colours for soccer in ’68, but too late to invest in the white blazer, and no drumroll.

Took out a couple of patent applications along the way (unsuccessful need I say, or I would have been the first South African in space!) and always looking to make a difference in life.

My hele lewe lank sport gespeel en speel nog steeds liga-squash, maar dit word elke jaar moeiliker. Nie soos Johnny B met sy bergfietsry wat al hoe jonger word nie …

Love the outdoors, and do some 4×4 trips in a rooftop tent all over southern Africa. Travelled from Maputo to Inhambane on the beach the entire trip, very memorable and not easily repeated; got caught by the high tide and survived most of what nature could throw at us. Less taxing holidays now, and sleep on the ground.
