I think you have the wrong Dearlove, Ray. You’re looking for the website http://www.thedearlove.com – that’s Cameron’s site. Thanks for visiting.

To assume that “adult content” would only apply to something unsavory is really a limited view. To bait both friends, colleagues and most likely your own family members seems almost pathological even a touch Dadaist. I think a little time spent on an analyst’s couch or maybe a little electroshock therapy would be in order. Concerned voter!

Hi Cameron,

A little cynical about those school photos? The background is obviously a wormhole! A great solution for escaping bullies and boring classes.
By the way here is a report you might find interesting. It is a little dated (2009).

With a few minutes to spare before baby wakes up, decided I should Google Preston High School and up popped the link to this blog entry. Couldn’t help but click on it. Your dad really was an amazing, patient teacher and his passion for music was contagious. It was lovely to see you reposted the article–I had to shake my head, though, at how quickly nearly 11 years has passed.
Surfed through a few more of your recent posts of your family; what a beautiful crew. I have allowed myself a minute to wax nostalgic and remember back to when you and I went to good ol’ PHS. I would love to ask the teenage versions of ourselves where we thought life would be 20 years later and if our guesses would have been anywhere near correct. I don’t think I could have projected that life could be so amazing “when I was old”. You?
Nice to catch up with “ye of no first name”–Lisa

You are welcome to see my cello if it helps and I would be interested to see yours, as we are not very far away from each other. If you ever come to Ironbridge feel free to drop in.
Best wishes

Hi everyone,
I am a violin maker based in hereford and i have been looking recently at a cello belonging to my mother.The brand below the button clearly reads “dearlove maker leeds” It has been extensively (badly) repaired mainly to the ribs which appear rather thin, though it has had a nicely executed neck graft at some point. It doesn’t look terribly Straddy to me appearing more akin to the description posted by Mr Applebaum. I would be happy to send some photo’s for comparison and would be delighted to recieve some photo’s of the cello restored by Mr Applebaum for my own comparision. I wonder if that cello had rib problems perhaps caused by insufficiant thicknesses. I am currently trying to find all i can about the Dearlove makers and will keep you posted of my findings. my email address is nikacons@yahoo.co.uk If anyone has any information which may help me in my quest.

Keep up the good work
Nicholas Acons
