A long shot here - I follow a guy called Malcolm Hill on Twitter. He used to work for EMI Music in both the UK and Australia, but he also claims that he loves football "even though I support Watford and CC Mariners." If I remember rightly, he hails from Kings Langley - him by any chance?
Yes, that’s the man. Why does he claim to be special to us?
 
ah.. i was on to this lead too:

He was a harry the hornet once " I wore a Hornet body, a crash helmet, black tights and yellow wellingtons and had wooden wings."
That’s it. Malcolm claims to be the first Harry the Hornet.

Here he is in the very early ‘80s:

“Black tights, yellow wellies, a knitted bumblebee body, wooden wings and an open-faced crash helmet complete with a visor that had eyes on stalks.
“Anglian Windows were a major sponsor of the team at the time and they used their helicopter to fly me into theVic from the Spiders Web Motel. I dropped into the centre-circle usually with a couple of mascots and the match ball… much to the annoyance on one occasion of legendary referee Clive Thomas!”

Malcolm was reprimanded by Watford for sticking his middle finger up to Wolves fans who threw coins at him on one occasion, but it was refusing to do Watford Reserves’ matches also for nothing, that lost him the job!

Over to you. <ok>
