Proprietor of The Village Dry

David eventually became head
teacher of textiles at Strathfield TAFE before moving to the Sydney Institute of Technology TAFE NSW in

With a thorough knowledge of
textiles and dry cleaning operations David, together with his wife Diane, took the opportunity in 2000 to purchase
the St Mary's location of the Village Dry Cleaners.
Eighteen months in 2002 they
established the Penrith shop at the old Jet 60 location on Castlereagh St which had been closed for eighteen
months.

who was on work experience, David transformed the premises in only one month into what we see
today.
