Mine to brumble, I had arranged to visit Chris in April, but he sadly passed away in January.

One thing about Chris, he had a spine and better still it was straight, never bent.
Enjoy your beer mate as you ride the clouds.

I almost met nojag in Heathrow as I was catching a connect to Aberdeen
after flying in from Cyprus.
He came to meet me and have a beer from wherever in London he lived.
I went thru' the wrong gate and couldn't get to meet.We had a virtual drink later
when I arrived in Aberdeen.

Because of my job I often spoke to Dave, never met him in person but was honoured to respect his memory and attended his funeral, over the years this site has been running (whilst respecting the privacy of members ID's) I have met a few members (generally at FBU rallies) and have made good friends.

It might seem sometimes like a bit of a cliche, what you get out is what you put in and for me it's been great to have been a member of our Fire Service.

Maybe I’m getting mixed up ! Josephine was my main combatant...

that’s the worst part of these forums .... you know you’d enjoy a pint with most ... this forum and others just tends to divide an online persona

And I am sure you would have enjoyed a pint or three with Chris Sam.
