Speaking earlier this week, David spoke of his affection for Northern Ireland and recounted his first meeting with Lisburn stalwart Cecil Walker - "My first recollection of Cecil was when he announced to me "our one-day final is a two day game". . . . I mean, I just had to come and find out ! I haven't spoke at any dinners for years but am not going to miss this one"
