Still hard to beleive he’s gone.  Already missing the rants and the moaning for nearly all the payroll loads we did.  I was lucky enough to spend a few drunken evenings in his presence talking about everything and nothing, generally putting the world to rights.  A pang of regret that we didn’t arrange a much talked about get together in town before he passed.  He would have laughed for the reason I can’t be there tomorrow but will raise a glass for you later mate.  Sincere condolences to his family and friends at this sad time.
