    This man is far too modest, he deserves and should have been made, a KNIGHT of the Realm and nothing less.

    Well done Simon (and his wife).

    Agreed. This guy has been to hell and back, and still done positive things to help others.

    Also dispels the myth that all Welsh folks are pro-Argentina's claim.

    Simon always speaks up for the Islanders, yet has every excuse not to.
