Sorry to hear of Malcolm's passing, I have fond memories of him, growing up with David.

 I spent many days at there house on Old Renwick Road, going for rides in the back of his landrover, or his army jeep, admiring his impressive gun collection and endless days swimming in there pool. 

Malcolm may be gone but never forgotten. 

RIP

A good kind man who was always seemed happy.
