Raising a glass in honour of 'Big Gav' - friend, colleague, mentor and sometimes foe...but not for long. Wicked sense of humour. A treasured memory is what he wrote on my card when I left Syd U - it read in part:
"..thanks for your advice, ALMOST always accepted....."
Thoughts and compassion to Diane and family.
Here's a glass of smooth Aussie Red to you, boy - lang may yer lum reek!
