Quite a few athletes.

The odd racing driver, boxer, golfer. Quite a lot of rowers & swimmers too, not just the one.

And a fair few Ashes, all told.

Well basically, I don't know what you value.

Maybe one for you to savour:

What's life about? (Rhetorical question.)

Is there a World Cup Final victory for England that was won in "normal" time?

I'd reckon any Pom brethren might pick the 2005 Ashes series.

Miracle of Medinah, 2012 (I know that’s Europe, but in the Brexit deal presumably we keep the Ryder Cup...)
