Just received this from one of my heroes......the man himself Mr Henry Olonga.....
"Dear Peter Young,
Sorry this is so short but I have been swamped by lots of support.Anyway thank you so much for your kind words and support and May god bless you.It is such an encouragement to me to hear from you.I hope that in a small way my stand may make a difference.There is a dream called Zimbabwe and I
believe in it.
Henry "
What a genuinely good bloke :). Just thought people might like to see it.

Sent him an e-mail using his website for an address and then about month later he kindly replied. Hey presto :)

It was always going to be favourite that he would come to England for a bit (because of his brother being based over here).

I wish the gentlemen well - and may his god go with him (to steal Dave Allen's catch-phrase).
