Am quite stunned to hear of Andy’s demise, and 56 is way too young...
Condolences to his family and friends.
Although I never met him, I feel as if I had after reading his (personally signed) book Punk in the Gym, a great read from a hard living, climbing poster-boy!
Well I remember his contributions to Chockstone that although not always on topic, enlivened this place considerably and can still hear his typed “Ha!” now...
I lament the loss of yet another larger than life achiever in both ’out there’ and also in understated ways, as well as being one of our ubiquitous climbing larrikins. |
