  GrahamClayton: "David Lovejoy arrived in Australia in 1971, after travelling overland (mostly) from England. He helped found The Echo newspaper n 1986 and has played many roles in the newspaper’s history. Now officially retired, he still occasionally fills in for sick or holidaying staff in between attending chess tournaments. He has accumulated a son, a daughter, three grandchildren and three cats. In addition to his Echo articles David has written a memoir and two historical novels."
