KIPVW 0 Posted February 18, 2010 Some sad news today :( a friend of mine has sadly died in an accident at home and i just cant believe it! He was a customer in the cycle shop i worked at and as we chatted about things in general when he became a regular it seemed we had a lot in common, we both had VW's Tim has a old beetle and we were both fellow who fans so actually went to see a few bands now and then as well as quite a few rides on the bike too. He worked as a postman then his lucky break came a few years ago when fellow sheffield legend and long term friend of Tim's Richard hawley recomended him to Jarvis Cocker as his replacement as Richard wanted to go solo for a while. Imagine how he must have felt to be given the job of touring the world and living the high life when weeks before you were getting up at 4 am to deliver mail. He was the most modest man you would ever meet and never bigged himself up, he just used to say he got a lucky break. He was a superb rider too and put me in some serious pain on more occasions than i can remember. His first child was born on the 9th of January this year. Such a tragedy. Miss you already dude. :( http://www.thestar.co.uk/headlines/Shef ... 6083296.jp http://www.daretobecreative.co.uk/profiles/tim.php Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted February 18, 2010 Paul, really sorry to hear this news, mate :( Yet again, another reminder to live for the moment. Keep your chin up, matey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted February 18, 2010 That's appalling news mate.. :( I think the old saying (though not quite the same) applies here.. it's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all! I think the same kind of sentiment can apply to good friends as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted February 18, 2010 Bad news mate :( to die at 37 is a tragedy RIP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted February 19, 2010 Yeah gotta agree with the comment, we just never know how long we are here for :( I cant help thinking things just aren't right though somewhere. To have the world at your own feet doing what he always wanted to do and then have a six week old daughter then have to dissapear forever! Big Sigh!

KIPVW 0 Posted April 21, 2010 Well a very busy day not doing much other than fitting the petrol tank straps which have been refurbed along with the original bolts which have been zinc plated as they were before they went manky. A few more jobs to do before Stanford Hall super class :brickwall: Quite pleased with the results if i'm honest and Bruney has a lot to answer for :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
