Fond memories of occasionally seeing Dave at the Charlotte Mason climbing wall at Ambleside in the late 80's, a talented climber on bold grit and hard limestone with new routes including Dalliance 8b+, The Yorkshire Ripper 8b, The Bottom Line E7 6c, Mind Bomb E7 6c and MaDMAn E7 6b. A sad loss.
Friend and I were young and impressionable back in the day............... he managed to convince us that he also played bass in Jethro Tull ! We were well impressed, all that and still managed to climb really hard.
