Name That Bocker!

Can anyone remember a bocker with flat cap, grey hair, roundish, friendly face, an accent I am sure Richard Ruck modelled his accent on, Always an extremely thin roll-up fag in his mouth, always seen leaning on his rake somewhere along the senior house side of the avenue.
As far as I could see, he never did any work at all - he was more like a sort of living statue that you could talk to.

Well, he did have a distinct burr, if you understand my meaning, and I did say that everyone loved him on account of the fact he was so completely lazy, plainly no career prospects, and I always fancied a quiet life leaning on a rake or mowing the lawn on one of those massive mowers that old men race (on another website)
I didn't mean any offence, but you did give me a eulogy on a certain Cutler, no?

Oh aah, that oi did!
Just wondering how you could detect an accent on the internet, though....

Are we talking about Rudolph here?
Big bloke, big red nose, famous for rake-leaning and jawing, definitely not a retired CEO of ICI?

If my memory serves me well I'm sure I recall you talking in a deep Somerset accent while at school - can't be sure whether it was put on for comedic effect or if you really spoke like that.
