Peter, I didn't know the guy, he was quite a while before I joined. Searching for his name brought up alot of names we don't see on here any more.

Long may your own journey continue.

Thanks Chris

Martini was a lovely, gentle man - another good'un who died far too young.

There were others too who contributed and or were an inspiration. Lyn mentioned Andy Ripely in a thread quite recently and there was Old Al and Barry Barrington ((top gun) who gave much of his time and shared his struggle with us to the end, Spursspark? and others. I think the fact that we met these characters made it more like losing family members. I was wondering if anybody had heard anything about George Hardy who used to organise the annual meeting of Bollocks 2 PCa to which many members of this forum used to attend?

I think George is okay - he commented on something fairly recently

Yes, just to confirm I’m in touch by email with George on a fairly regular basis.

Thank you for confirming.  Please pass on best wishes and say he has had an honourable mention.

I will do, Barry, maybe he’ll pop-in’ here for an update.

Take care, Janet
