robbo 802 Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 My mate of 38 years from up barnsley has just been down to cornwall[where i now live], for a week with his mrs and two kids. Had a fantastic weeks weather,good time all round, called to say bye etc, man hug, see you christmas etc. etc. Five hours later i get a phone call from police telling us he was dead. had a puncture, got out, changed it but spare wasnt right so got on phone to recovery service and while speaking to them just fell back and was dead on the spot.He had only been left our house an hour, just cant get my head round it. His mrs and kids have got to stop here until police/ coroner allow them to travel home. I had to phone his brothers as his mrs wasnt up to it[ theres two conversations i never want to repeat] IT JUST DOESNT SEEM REAL AT THE MOMENT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,639 Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 If somebody told you you were going to die at the age of 38 can you think of a much better way to go? Beautiful week of friends and family and instant end. I can only imagine how it must feel and that's not gonna make it any easier but just my thoughts. My thoughts are with his family.
