Sue and I were great friends for a number of years before Andy arrived on the scene and I was naturally a bit wary when this new face appeared in our close knit group. I needn’t have worried. Andy fit in straight away and his quick wit and dry sense of humour made him popular with everyone. I particularly remember our New Year’s trips to various locations around the country with lots of walking, drinking, chatting and laughing! Andy was always great company whether discussing the political issues of the day or swapping silly jokes and although we saw him much less often in recent years he will be greatly missed x
