Very sad news indeed.
Dan and I swapped many e-mails on the difference of UK and US spec headlamps when he supplied a kit for Beaky. He struck me as a true gentleman, always knowledgeable, eloquent, and good humoured.
When it became apparent that the headlamps he supplied for Beaky wouldn't fit, due to a difference in UK/US spec he was unaware of, he immediately refunded my money suggesting I keep the original units should someone have use for them. They are still in my garage.
Every time I switch on my headlamps I think of Dan. Those thoughts will now be much more poignant.
I would very much like to have met Dan had I the opportunity.
It seems strange that we shall no more have Dan's comments popping up when we get on to subjects he was so knowledgeable on. He will be much missed.
