--- A charming anecdote, I'm sure

Reading about the death of Beatles associate Neil Aspinall today, I found this quote about his meeting George Harrison for the first time when they were kids :

"This great mass of shaggy hair loomed up and an out-of-breath voice requested a quick drag of my Woodbine. It was one of the first cigarettes either of us had smoked. We spluttered our way through it bravely but gleefully.".

The irony here being that both Harrison and Aspinall died, too young, from lung cancer.
