At Tom’s wedding in France, Alice just a few weeks old and David already the besotted new Dad!

always a delightful, witty and thought provoking companion and of course, a loyal friend,.He will be sorely missed

Not best pleased about helping to haul the evening's fire wood home though. Sadly I didn't get a picture of him playing The Boatman, I honestly have never heard it played better

Get together on your trip to Melbourne in April 2018. So much laughter (apologies for making you late for your dinner, though!)

A break between sets for some high level philosophical conversation - thirsty work! There is live footage to accompany the stills, for the brave ("Stairway with David" in video section.)

You were so late at this point, Liz was literally reversing down the drive with Alice and Ben when this was being taken. Au revoir, mon ami.

Great memory of a tightly fought game of pétanque, a few years ago, on the Quais de Seine in Paris, in the sun, beer in hand. Or was it Pastis? Aside from everything else David had a great live of France and all things quintessentially French
