  • Experience: I have hugged half a million people around the world.

    Experience: I have hugged half a million people around the world.
    David "Big Dave" Sylvester photographed at Rittenhouse Squarein Philadelphia, PA USA for The Guardian "Experience" feature.David Sylvester in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he lives.
    David realised some people were hesitant about hugging him when they didn’t know the first thing about him.
    It’s rarely just a hug; it’s conversations, moments, confessions. When you’re willing to embrace a stranger, people open up.
    People tend to be cautious at first. They hover, watching for a gimmick, until someone grabs a hug.
    David carry a clicker to count the number of people he's hugged – his record is 1,300 in a day.
    When Covid-19 hit, the hugs stopped.
    With hugs still forbidden, in 2021 he drove across 48 states doing good deeds.

    There was double delight for destroyers Defender and Diamond as the warships received a warm welcome from families after a landmark deployment.

    The two ships sailed into Portsmouth Naval Base 60 minutes apart ¨ñ and a few hours ahead of the nationís flagship, aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth, which they accompanied for most of the past seven months.

    The duo left the city in May, part of a nine-ship force ñ seven of them British ñ with the flagship at the centre on its maiden deployment to the Pacific Rim and back.

    Both Type 45 warships formed part of the defensive ring of ships formed around the carrier, fulfilling their principal role, watching out for aerial threats.

    But there were also opportunities at times to break away from the core task group and operate independently or with allies, such as Defenderís extremely high-profile patrol of the Black Sea in June.
