I met Nick through my sister back in about 1972, but later we were both students, Nick stayed with me as a lodger for a while, and in those few months we became friends for life. We shared a sense of humour, revelling in the faintly ridiculous, laughing at absurd song lyrics and inane TV. I'll never forget the fun we had with the music of Devo and the antics with my sister's dog, who shared our lives during that time. After he left we drifted apart a bit, and I know it’s corny, but Nick really was one of those people with whom you can pick up where you left off, after months or even years. During the 45 years since Nick lodged with me, I had come to think of him as the nearest thing I ever had to a brother. Forever cheerful, forever kind, and always ready with a story. Goodbye bro. I am on holiday at the moment the only picture of Nick I have access to is way too unflattering to add here, sadly.
