A lovely, lovely man :-) so sorry to hear of his passing. He was my son's headmaster at Mount Primary and he made the school a wonderful place for the kids. His guitar playing and singing were awesome :-) and his kind and laid back nature made him a unique head teacher, well ahead of his time. All the children loved him xxxxx
