Not being technically savvy (his words) Mark Eilbeck shared this on Facebook, I’ve copied it here so it’s included.
I’ve got lots of memories of Nik both at work and socially. The one that always brings a smile to my face goes back to Christmas 2001. Us conductors had been on strike for a year so the drivers took us out and bought our drinks. On the particular day, Joe Strummer had died so in the Rambler me and Nik were hogging the jukebox playing Clash songs.
After a while 2 young lasses came and told us they wanted to play Christmas songs. Nik being the festive soul he was told them feck off somewhere else if they wanted Christmas shite! One of the best taken far too soon.
