Have just heard today of Plum's passing. We had many cricket matches against each other in the sixties and after one of these Plum commented to me how much he always looked forward to playing against Eltham. He enjoyed the hospitality in our lovely clubroom after each game. He will be a very sad loss to all your family.

We should celebrate the massive contribution that Pete made not only to rugby and cricket but to the many people he touched during his long innings. His passion, pride and amazing work ethic for anything he undertook was an inspiration to watch and learn from. A Great man, you deserve a spell after bowling into the wind for the past few years since Cath went. Rest well my old mate, you were certainly one of a kind
