Events like these certainly bring things sharply back into perspective.

Sorry to hear of your loss Darren. It's coming up to the second anniversary of my best friend and his partner's demise in a car crash in France.

Sorry to hear your bad news Daz, I had a good mate die when he was 18 during a fight over a refusall to give some one a cigarette !
All the best - I hope the humour can return to this forum.

In 2003 on a Friday in March i waved goodbye to my workmate on the lorry after finishing our round and wished him a great weekend.
On Monday morning i was awoken at 5am by my phone ringing,it was our lorry driver who said he had some terrible news.

He came and got me and told me my mate had died the night before,he had collapsed in his kitchen while making food while his wife and two little ones were in the living room.

He was 32 years old and an ex athlete and fit as a fiddle,i was numb with shock,he died from sudden death syndrome.

As i say live life to the full,its very fragile.

In spite of all the fun we have on the forum (despite the occasional disagreement), life has a way of reminding us all of what is truly important. I lost my father-in-law about a month and a half ago (about two weeks shy of his 80th birthday). My prayers and sympathies go to you Alipaul on your loss.

[Janus]

Daz I'm so sorry to hear your news. my sympathies and thoughts are with you. And through what you are sadly experiencing right now you have hit the nail on the head (for me at least) for the importance of some light-heartedness, be it by way of the forum or elsewhere. I have personally had the worst two years of my life with very close members of my own family and good friends dieing.It is heart rendering. I can honestly tell you that this "humour" "banter" ,whatever , and the kind naturedness I found and still find on this forum and with the friendships I have created over the years has been my key in keeping me afloat. Life is a very precious and a very fragile thing ndeed, as my father once said to me on many occassions years before he drew his very last breath in my arms about this very same time (25th November) last year in hospital "You're a long time dead".

[Laserdisc Dream]

Sorry too hear that.

A sad few posts, I am sorry to hear about the losses of loved ones.


There is a hidden veil between us and there, to cross it is the final, great journey........


'Is this all there is?
Is this all there is?
Is this all there is?
Our eyes so fixed
That the darkness surrounds us
Unnoticed
And we are drowned by the loss of light
Unnoticed
Is this all there is my friends?
Is this all there is?

Goodnight goodnight the inmost light'

Talking of bad news; I've just found out that one of the girls that my wife works with has had a very serious car accident and is on our ITU. Spoken to them today and it doesn't look good. Given that she used to work in Tissue Typing, the staff there are in complete shock and are really worried that they will end up typing her. She is such a lovely girl, it's such a shame.

Soory to hear that Chris, I hope she does pull through.
