David’s personal interests include Mountaineering, Cross Country Skiing. In his earlier life he has represented Great Britain in Biathlon and England in Paragliding. David is still active with a local University Mountaineering Club. He has, in the past, advised for film and TV on arctic and wilderness living skills.
In addition, David plays the Northumbrian and Highland Bagpipes at local folk music sessions.
His free time now is largely spent with his soon to be teenage son, who has developed a keen interest in going to the gym, swimming and can often be found at the local climbing wall. Occasionally he still finds time to go to the lake district walking and wild-camping.
