    my greatest keepsake is Steve Hislop's rostrum champagne bottle from Thruxton BSB race before his untimely death. we were marshalling at Nobles when he came off in practice. looked after him until recovery came. found a few bits of panels and he signed them in the evening and gave us the bottle signing it as well for looking after him.
    not like some of the F1 premadonnas. another notable day was pushing Steve Sprays Norton back into the paddock from Stebbe Straight at Mallory. got to the paddock entrance and mobbed by Norton Technicians who rushed it away. plenty more memories from 20+ years marshalling from GP/WSB down to club and MotoX world to club events seen a few sad days as well!!
