David Blagrove

Thanks for all your advice over the years, and most of all, thank you for selling Archimedes to us.
Sorry this is a bit late, but I've just heard of your passing.

Such a caring man who will be greatly missed by so many. RIP.

Left an everlasting love of history

. David had time for everyone . Whether it be answering questions , helping with The Telegraph crossword , teaching us canal songs on ' toasting nights ', or just telling great stories . A rare thing nowadays . RIP

Very sad news. He was very good to our son Andrew. We had some nice chats to him. He worked hard for the Waerways. Regards to his wife Jean. Ex narrow boat Lady Melinda
