Good grief what a bummer
Had great laugh with the guy on here and face ache I bet he's reeling off some stories to him upstairs right now. Never met him but still feel I knew him. As I'm sure he'd have agreed with me on this, Live for the day guys, tomorrow ain't here yet |

I just read this about 10 minutes ago, and I just can't get my head around it.
Plank was a true member of this club, over the years we have batted ideas to each other, passing on advice from our own experiences. He will be truly missed. I never actually met him, but I felt as though I knew him. Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time. Life is so fragile, like a candle in the wind. Rustic

Guys,
In shock, loss of a dear friend, spent some great times, not enough together but more by text and private message, modern pen pals I suppose. When the time is right I hope you can join me in a collection/condolence card/ecard. Will of course forward any funeral arrangements. Richard
