The Giggle

From John Clarke

Mike was many things: the smartest person I knew, a supportive and encouraging friend, a true professional and a master of the affectionate tease.

But one thing marked Mike out: The Giggle

Whenever Mike's disarming frankness had stopped you in your tracks, he had gone on just a little too long about his latest passion, or one of his more ambitious teases had missed its mark - that little sideways look and The Giggle never failed to get you smiling.

And that's what I'll miss most about Mike.
