    Can confirm. Saw him earlier this year.

    The term “Cult hero” should have a photo of Chatfield beside it. What an absolute servant to the game he was.

    I remember a very funny conversation I had with an Indian bloke I know and he said that “If this man was a cricketer from my country he would not be mowing lawns or driving a cab, he would be worshipped as a god and not pay for anything”

    I worked with his brother (Dennis?) at Naenae Telephone exchange in the dim and distant past - met him once when he had just got into the Wellington team.

    He's a regular at Hutt City New World. A man of exquisite taste.

    @Bones He ends the interview by saying he has to go as he has a pick-up in 30 minutes.

    Those aren't two sentences I see next to each other very often. But it does make sense, he was always very economical.

    After reading this thread last week, I saw Chatfield over the weekend in the Hutt. Funny how life works.

    Not really, the Hutt is very small and insular. I’m surprised you don’t see him every day.
