I raised him a wee bit of single malt tonight, a couple of spliffs and a whole lot of love Lifes' a hard and brutal thing.... as my grandma said to me, over my brothers grave (bitch! @ 87 years old and defo deserves her dues ) "Only the good die young" Johnny will join Craigyboy, in the sense he'll bring different people together for the craic and charity and good things, i'm hoping the fishing comp will do what it was set up to do, give help and support, I'll get my ass over there for a bit of that Night night mucker. The comps been nothing but a good thing from day 1 mate, the biggest fish cup was named after Craigyboy and now the comp will always be in memory of John. As a few lads have said there was no one like him for raising money on the auction, absolute worthless tat would be sold for 50 quid cause he'd get you all at it... my friends who own the fishery told some of their family to come down on the last night just to watch John perform.. .. its like he stored a whole year of piss taking for that one stint, everyone copped some...brilliant... That pic of him with the wooden spoon, I made that...well I shoved a wooden spoon into a pot of plasticine lol... then we stitched it so he won it, its for the loser but with 8 or blanking it was shortest straw to decide ..was only ever gonna be John..lol Every year he'd tell me he still had that wooden spoon on display...lol 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RossM 7,979 Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Looking through some old photos when I met John, sat on the side of a hill in the Baltic cold with the hounds working away, John talking away and it took me a full 15 minutes to work out what he was saying...... 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
