I don't have to remember Vin Garbutt since I saw him perform only last week!

He being from Middlesborough and I from Newcastle, I understood most of what he had to say. The illusion he gives of being somewhat absent minded Is I believe, part of his act?

His pronunciation of the salicacae species "Populis Negra Betulifolia" was spot on (The Wisdom of Trees)
