Stuart Davison

Stuart is married with one son, two daughters, four granddaughters, one grandson and a cockapoo called Luna. He is therefore exhausted, permanently in the minority and always in the wrong .  He spent much of his early life as a small boy, however he grew out of that and became a man.  This transition was accompanied by the deepening of his voice and the lengthening of his trousers. He escapes to SLS on a Wednesday morning to talk complete nonsense to any troubled soul who will listen. His musical taste is both wide and varied but he never needs an excuse to include Elvis Presley somewhere in the programme.


John Winter
