He may have terrorised some at the table but "Doubling" Dave Harper's departure to March in Cambridgeshire has left a huge hole in the bridge club. But the partners he won sessions with were many including Shirish Shah, Angela Glancy, Jan Whitham, Su Gomez, Stephen McNeil, Kiran Bowry, Peter Danckwardt, Sam Shen, Steve Polonyi, Michael McAlpine, Ajay Wad, Tony Hilton, David Martin-Sperry, Chris Gidden, Mary Sales and Ricki Douglas. Chris Smith, Lesley Wilkinson, Ramnik Shah and Paul Atu were also close.

His original appearances were when the upstairs room featured many more tables and sadly playing in the bar when the Hillsborough Disater was being screened. In his later years, apart from Directing, Dave assisted dealing many hundreds of hands and maintaining the asset register. 

"I am grateful for the drinks and kind words my friends gave me the other day but sadly I am going with fond memories and plenty of laughs. I will miss you all but hope to pop up two or three times a year," said Dave
