There's a memorial gathering for D. West in Skipton in West Yorkshire today. I can't be there, but I'll be drinking a pint in Don's memory later today.

The last time I met him, at the last but one Bradford Eastercon, he'd given up. Not completely, you understand, he'd just fallen onto the wagon. "It's easy,"he said. "You find yourself not having one pint, then not having another and before you know it you're hardly drinking at all."

It wasn't a hardcore position however. He kindly let me buy him a pint. What a guy.

He did a cartoon for Chunga in which he commented that he could only have fun in his cartoon persona anymore.
