Another century for the Don...

Today is the centenary of the birth of Sir Donald Bradman, statistically "the greatest sportsman ever" and arguably not just statistically, though I'd have to defer to the opinions of those who saw him play. The press have rightly remembered this occasion (CMJ in the Times is worth a  read, as is Gus Fraser in the Independent and the Telegraph piece here) and I just add a memorable crossword clue from an episode of Inspector Morse...!

Though today is sure to be celebrated, there was a party held in Australia on the occasion of the 99.94th anniversary of his birth!
