He presented the Breakfast Show on Radio Clyde and later Clyde 2 until 2001. During his early years at Radio Clyde, Dave was also a relief announcer at STV, where he often could be heard closing the station at around 12.30am to reappear on Radio Clyde’s Breakfast Show at 6am.

He moved to the afternoon Drivetime slot on Clyde 2 in September 2001 which he left to present Mid-Morning at Saga 105.2FM in September 2004. Following the purchase of Saga by GMG, Dave could also be heard daily across Central Scotland on Smooth Radio.

Among his hobbies Dave lists window shopping for the latest gadgets and inventing things; he also likes eating out, which he uses as an opportunity to plan the Radio Museum that he’s going to open one day.
