He later worked as a fireman in the Bristol area. In 2013 in an interview with

The Guardian newspaper he said. " After I retired I pottered around for a couple

of years living on my savings,but after a bit I needed something to do, to get out

and make ends meet. Me and the missus were driving past the fire station one day,

and she just said 'you know, it's a bit like a football club: you spend a lot of time

together, working as a team'... I just thought why not?
