I had the pleasure of working with Dinos on many occasions during my time with the IB. His support and contributions reflected the man himself - creative, dedicated and caring.

I remember during one IB workshop I had been invited to as Head of PD, he invited me to join in the activities over the three days. As usual, it was fantastic fun and great inspiration for the teachers involved. Now every IB ISTA workshop, has a masterclass session where a guest expert comes to practice some of their craft with the participants. On this occasion it was a specialist in oriental dance and I gamely joined in. Gamely I say because my skills were not up to those of the other theatre teachers involved who had at the very least a vague sense of bodily coordination. Dinos had left the room at this point and I remember the look of horror on his face as he came back in to see the Head of PD at the IB being berated for his inadequate dance skills. 

We had a great laugh about it afterwards and is just one of many abiding memories of my times working with Dinos.
