... I didn't know Colin's surname and when I saw the thread, I hoped it wasn't someone I knew...but it is and it's making me cry. As Gillie said above he was always very reassuring and supportive of the Witches when we first started doing the festivals. It was a comfort to see him when you first arrived.

I had a good chat with him outside the Met this Whitby & as usual he passed on a cheery 'hello' to everyone else.

How very sad. He was a gentle giant.
