Happens too often in this business
The only small consolation is that at the frenetic speed he lived his life, he's already lived 2 normal peoples lives
Godspeed my friend

RIP Pete, always a friendly voice on "Scottish Information" frequency. Thoughts are with all the PDG crews, family and friends form us all at NATS Prestwick.

Pete was instrumental in my joining the industry nearly thirty years ago and we've been friends ever since, through thick and thin. I shall miss him terribly.
I shall hoist a glass (or three) tonight in his name and memory, but i'll think twice about reprising some of his other party tricks!
So long "Captain Clun-@rse" The world just became a sadder place to be.
