His autobiography 'If I Don't Write It Nobody Else Will' is an
interesting read. Before I read it I, rather naively, thought that when
people did things for charity, they paid their own expenses. Sykes
writes about pro-am golf matches played "for charity" for which he was
flown first class to Rhodesia and put up in the best hotels, all paid
for by the charity.

The animated figures stand
Adorning every public street
And seem to breathe in stone, or
Move their marble feet.
