Oh, I'm really sorry and shocked to see that. I took my firsts steps into climbing in 1978, serving my apprenticeship down the Gorge. I'm never knew them well but we (me and my climbing mates from school) looked at Steve, Nipper and all that crew (including you Duncan) with a kind of awe. And what a fantastic Crags cover you've linked to - I remember it well.

Amazing shot that, thanks Duncan. Anyone climbing in and around Bristol owes a debt to Steve Findlay, RIP

Sad news, they all lead a right life & suffered tragedy.

This live version of this song is brilliant, RIP.

Gordon Moore, Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel founder, author of Moore's Law setting out a (largely fulfilled) vision of exponential increases in computing power. Heard of him or not, he changed all our lives.
