What about Delray, Carlos and Franklyn?
When Eastbourne CC played in the National Cricket Club KO tournament in 2000 before the public smoking ban (under Richard "sticky" Halsall's captaincy) we entertained one of the Middlesex League sides at the Saffrons and a black ex county player lit up a spliff in the bar area before the game. One of the stuffed shirts on the committee was afraid to approach him but was spitting tacks later about his behaviour especially with young kids in the vicinity. I know I should have shared his disgust but can't help suppressing a chuckle.
