I remember a good all-round sportsman, including being a cheerful captain ( leader ) of the school cross-country team in about 1946-48 of which I was also a member.( The first eight home in the senior race were selected in those days to compete with other schools ) Tony and I also ran with/against Roger Banninster in the junior races of that era. Banninster won three junior races in consecutive years, for which he was presented with a special cup. No doubt, one of the first of many. Strangely, Banninster never shone quite so well in the senior races. I was sad to read about the passing of Tony Sweet.
