Referring to this thread... "my memory of him was an intelligent articulate person , who liked to argue for the sake of it. Nick has mentioned his kindness and helpfulness, my first impressions of him were of arrogance and on occasions a tendency to patronise, his public school accent exacerbated this impression as i got to know him a little, i realised that his arrogance was insecurity [imo]. he was talented creative kind articulate, annoying, interesting. arrogant argumentative, over the top, but rarely dull and never boring., fairly good at rubbing people up the wrong way"
