I once met the late Jonah Lomu. It was years ago and I was covering fashion in the field at Trentham for Style Magazine and he was one of the judges.
All I can recall is meeting this mountain of a man with an easy smile; I must have come up to about his shins.
This has been an horrific week for so many people across the planet. Here in New Zealand, we've experienced sadness of a different kind with the loss, far too early, of one of the most amazing athletes ever.
Someone sent me this pic, yesterday's front page of the Irish Examiner, which beautifully sums up the death of Jonah.
Jonah, rest in peace.
