My old friend the Womble sorry to hear such shocking and unexpected sad news.
We met on the Master Brewers course in Birmingham in 1981 David filled the room and the atmosphere with big personality and fun, giggling and making us laugh with barely understandable humour, usually with a beer in hand. Last met in Barbados in 2019 with our wives and just before that in London during Covid which he had dealt with. A man we all loved. The anchor of our “boat race” team, unshockable and proud of his Womble nickname. His mango, condensed milk and Mountgay cocktails will never be bettered. God rest his soul. Heaven will be a happier place with him up there.
