Mr Justice Kerr:
I heard this sad news yesterday from Akhlaq.
Eldred was a wonderful man and a formidable advocate.
I met him when he was in the Enderby case in 1988, during which I met Nicola, then a trainee solicitor.
He then helped me greatly in my career, taking me out for an excellent lunch in Whitechapel in 1989 when I needed advice on a chambers move.
He recommended that I try 4-5 Gray's Inn Square rather than, at that stage, 11 KBW - very good advice!
The whole 11 KBW family, Bar and Bench will all miss him very much.
Best wishes to you and all at Chambers,
Tim
