Posted: 20/11/2018 21:28:36 Reply | Quote That's a shock, & a very sad one. We worked together in the early 80's & of course bumped into each other many times since, through the mining history mob. Rest in peace Dave. A super chap, a great asset to the mining exploration & history world and a very talented electronics engineer. Sadly missed. -- We inhabit an island made of coal, surrounded by a sea full of fish. How can we go wrong....... IP: 95.145.206.57 Edited: 20/11/2018 22:46:05 by Mr.C |

I was looking forward to meeting him a great character and a real enthusiast. he made many contributions to this forum. It was an honour to have been a friend RIP Mike IP: 77.100.235.46 |
