Just to add to the tributes, it was Colin who taught me most of what I know

I agree with Anthony. I think Colin has to be one of the most deserving
people in decades. Surely this is a great opportunity to appoint a president
in recognition of a huge contribution to our instrument.

Colin withdrew his name from the original list of suggestions on

So, yes, he took part in the process.
No, he was not a candidate at that point.
My last posting stands.
I would whole-heartedly support any move to appoint Colin as President, for
Lifetime Achievement reasons, but ONLY if he himself were entirely happy
with it. He certainly doesn't need the sort of back-biting criticism which
now seems all too prevalent. Maybe a public figure outside the
