Had a funny turn

[pacharan]

Went with the wife to local garden centre this afternoon.

Overdid the Yankee Candle sniffing and came over all faint.

Manager let me recuperate on a nice. wicker conservatory corner unit until I came back to my senses.

Also sent us home with a complimentary Jack Hargreaves Out Of Town dvd as a gesture of goodwill.

Met him a couple of times when he was at Southern TV. I was never interested in fishing and the countryside etc but Jack made his programs so cleverly that everyone seemed to be interest in them. He looked a lot younger off screen.

Is "Yankee candle sniffing" a euphemism?

Were you in the paint section sniffing turps?

It reads like a crossword cryptic clue:

Overdid the Yankee Candle sniffing and came over all faint.

Hate to think what the real meaning is though

Somebody has set up a website dedicated to the great
man:

Can't help wondering if he's a regular from these pages:

This site is dedicated to the memory of the late but great Jack Hargreaves, a man who had a major influence on me as a child. Primarily through appearances on his Southern TV shows, Gone Fishing, Out Of Town and HOW!, Jack showed me a gentle way of life that I am still struggling to achieve to this day. I work in the hectic world of freelance information technology, I don't hunt, I don't shoot, and I don't ride, but I do fish, turn & work wood, brew ale, have trained dogs (and plan to do so again), and most importantly, I have a rapidly greying beard! So I'm getting there!

The missus was born in Romsey and met him a couple of times at country fairs etc when she was growing up. A thoroughly charming chap by all accounts.
