Do you know what has happened to Dave?

I tried his mobile, no answer.

Is he enjoying a well-earned retirement holiday? I sincerely hope so.

Perhaps, as his best Usenet friend, you will contact him on our behalf
and let us where he is and what he's up to.

He's over in his natural environment on uk.diy. He'll be happier there, licking the wounds that he got from Alex Heney a few weeks ago.

OK - as long as he is safe and well, and the only thing that is
hurting are his feelings, I'm happy.

Is DIY his natural environment? I always had him down as one of those
nightmare tradesmen who don't know what they are doing and try to
charge you a call out fee for sucking through their teeth and telling
you you need a professional
plumber/electrician/gardener/decorator/handyman to do the job.
