Nah...Not really. There are a ton of beautiful places left in England and i'm not just talking the Cotswolds. I worked in House Removals for 5 years up until last year and been the length and breadth of the realm x 20...There are a huge amount of really pleasant, quaint, quiet, scenic, English (in terms of country gardens and all that), places out there. As a kid from the East end of London I used to go camping in Cornwall every summer...Cornwall (as an example) is STILL a beauty. What i will say in agreement is...Yeah, i was there in late 80s and through the 90's from Punk Rock to Drum n bass, i was locked in. Hiking across the woodlands and forests of England, I was game and still am...Was heavily into boxing back then (too much money involved now)...We are in an age of 'information overload' it's all meaningless information these days and too much of it, everyone is scrolling scrolling scrolling empty scrolling...The days you're talking of we were engaged with our immediate environment and that's what real life is about, direct experience with your immediate environment....But, how many people (including those who lived through the 90's), can put down their phones for 10 minutes?

what a delight! a most heartwarming talking pints. Thank you Frank for all the great sporting moments and so pleased you are happy in life. You are one of the best my friend❤

Frank Bruno really comes across as a nice guy and he deserves the respect for his boxing and being a roll model to so many youngsters, on his loss with Mike Tyson hit him hard but this guy met Tyson at the top of his game and Frank was a brave fighter and really proved himself to be,love Frank because he was proud to do it for the UK and I think he broke down barriers and started to unit the country, weather you follow boxing or not people got behind Frank win or lose he's always been the people's winner, great to see him and enjoying life and wish him well for the future. 'good on ya Frank,

As a Sth Londoner he will ALWAYS be "Our Frank" the Legend.

I met him once at a snooker tournament of all places, a really nice guy in person. Boxers don’t get close to his level of fame nowadays.

Even after all these years Bruno is still the most popular British Boxer of all time!!!

Fantastic interview. Frank is a Ledge. It's great to see him doing well. :)

What a beautiful man the honesty he projects is something that is missing in these times. He’s still one of my favourite boxers.

*Two legends.*

I am from Sri Lanka. I was a student in the UK in the late 1970s and Frank lived a few doors down to my sister in laws grocery Wiles Stores in Wandsworth. He was the amateur heavy weight champion if I am not mistaken. Truly a gentleman and so friendly. He used to carry my infant daughter everytime he visited the shop.

Frank is an absolute gent, I meet him as child wheil doing the great north run pushing a friend in his wheelchair, we where saying you know what I mean harry, when a big deep voice from behind us joined in, it was just after franks fight with Mike Tyson he told me when you box you don't feel it but mick hit me I felt it.
