Very sad. I heard the news 'Quinny' had died from long known childhood friend Simon Gotabed, who'd been told by 'Blab' (Gordon Day) - how are you Gordon, we've probably passed in the street unknowingly. Dave's death came as quite a shock, I can't remember the last time I saw or spoke to 'Quinny', but it was a long time ago, probably outside the Eagle Vaults in Witney. We were all part of the 'Park Road mob' in the 50s and 60s - although Dave lived just along the Burford Road. Seems like yesterday to me. Most of us were the same age (or just a few months apart, or like Bob Buckingham who is just a day younger than me!). I still see Bob - I wonder if he knows? - he's about the only one I do see often out of all of us from that time.
Life, eh? Much is great, much is unfair. Sad to hear you have gone too soon Dave. My sincere condolences to all his family and friends, not just from me but those who knew him.
