On 03 Feb, 2004 Bruce Mansfield and Philip Brady phoned Allan Moffatt to congratulate him on becoming an Australian citizen.  Bruce and Phil were at an outside broadcast when they put the call through.  This four minute chat shows the great sense of humour that Allan Moffatt had.  Many people are paying tribute by recounting stories from his amazing career.  But it's also great to know he was a fabulous guy as well.
