‘Bingo’ as he is known at his cricket club (where he has been a player, committee member and more importantly Fixture Secretary - seemingly since records began) never seems to age.

Only his jokes do - which come out and are churned around each season

His running style between the wickets resembles that of a demented ferret, but that has contributed to his prowess on the field with the bat, plus he is equally adept with the ball.

Off-the-field, ‘Nichols’ has over 20 years experience in fixture arrangement, hence if you need a tour fixture anywhere, he knows what is required, what fixtures are all about and is your man to get a game for you.
