In the swing

If there is glory to be had from spending time in the company of famous people, then David Powell of south-west firm Clarke Willmott & Clarke is your man.

Mr Powell (pictured front left) helped organise a charity golf day in Bristol recently and lined up rugby stars Jerry Guscott and Phil De Glanville (front and back right), Bath rugby coach Jon Callard (second left) and Bristol City footballer Peter Beadle, as the star attractions.

Sadly for Mr Beadle, he was clearly less important than a chap from co-sponsor Bank of Ireland and aconsultant from Southmead Hospital (in whose cause the golf day was organised) as they eased him out of the picture.

Such is the life of a second division footballer.
