I worked with Paul back in 92 to 95 at Cameron Taylor Bedford.

We were chalk and cheese,I would bang my head on the desk, be creative and moan about everything. He was tenacious,chirpy and solid.

There were some very good people there during the recession including Steve Brown,Richard Reynolds,Sean O'Reilly, Sabina, Mark and young Gary but Paul was always memorable.He had a stoic,tenacious way with humour and that wonderful free out loud laugh.

I saw him a few times over the many years. He was always friendly, teasing and good humoured. I remember I brought my teenage daughter to a Tower 8 party one night and Paul was there. He was lovely to my 16 year old and his warmth and humanity impressed an unimpressionable  teenager.

Paul,you were a big part of the industry and you had a big big heart.

You are missed.
