Ummm - my daughter 'accidentally' poured Shane Warne's (intentially luke warm) soup into his lap 20ish years ago, because he was being totally inappropriate to a young waitress at a pub where she worked.

My daughter's daughter is now a manager of a pub (while she decides what career to follow) and would do exactly the same thing!

I'm not denying Warne was a good cricketer, but ,there's more to life than just 'playing the game'.

Nonetheless, rip - far too young.

I had to look up what a larrikin was thanks Allen.

Larrikin is an Australian English term meaning "a mischievous young person, an uncultivated, rowdy but good -hearted person", or "a person who acts with apparent disregard for social or political conventions". Sounds like Warnie.

Be a long time before either are forgotten .
Rest in Peace both
