A friend for more than 50 years since we both joined the hard-drinking FT Surveys Department in 1970. Nobby was a strict and unflappable sub, well able to deal with the eccentricities of foreign correspondents, a stalwart of the Foreign Desk for many years and a mentor to many younger colleagues. A family man who has died far too early in his happy years of retirement. Our sympathies to Jo, Kate and their families.
