Dubman Rip Peter Green

Finally got around to listening to that Nic Fanciulli remix…

My mate Ted from Bolton. 54. Tripped on his stairs yesterday morning, ruptured a non-malignant tumour and died. RIP

I need to re-evaluate my life - I hadn’t seen him for almost a year. I’m absolutely gutted.

    Along_the_Wire sorry for your loss, G. I know the feeling, mate. I lost a childhood friend to a brain haemorrhage 5 years ago this August. He was 40. Make the most of every day, lads.

      Sorry dude. That’s horrible.

      Jesus, bud, that’s awful. So sorry.

      My GF passed away five years ago this October. Out of nowhere. You never get over it. Just used to it. I certainly don’t stress the small things anymore. But the flipside is, everything kinda feels small now.

        jonattonyeah LT42 Bloody hell fellas, there’s a lot of it about, sorry.

        I think I need to develop an exit strategy from my job and change course

        Since I turned 50 last year I changed my working practices. I won’t do any outside work above the first floor unless it’s scaffolded. I’ve slowed down a fair bit whilst riding up the downs.

        If there’s any catharsis in sharing a story, here goes.

        She was doing some contract work in Amsterdam (no, not working a door, you cretins). A six week web development thing. Her and her co-worker/roommate bought some coke off the street. Wasn’t coke. Was heroin. Killed them both. We used to Skype every Sunday. That Sunday she wouldn’t answer. Got the call from her mother the next day. The Monday. We were on and off for six years. My life has never been the same.

        What’s tough is the comparison thing. Every girl I date I end up comparing to someone who didn’t actually exist. Camille and I had a pretty terrible relationship, hence the on and off thing. But I guess the best way to get great is to get good and then get dead. I’m free to imagine everything we could have been rather than dealing with what we really were. Like I said above, you never get over it. A loss just becomes part of who you are.

          Shit…that’s rough Jon. Sorry pal

          Sorry to hear these stories lads. A mate of mine lost his girlfriend to cancer on Friday. She was 32. Life can be a cruel cunt.

          My god Jonathan that is properly tragic.

          Her poor Mum too, beyond terrible for everyone.

          Sympathies to Grant & JTY, some shitty cards been dealt there

          Yikes…sorry to hear this guys 🙁 Terrible news all around.

          Phil-McRackin Denise Johnson…..great voice, Primal Scream, New Order. 53….real shame.

          Big time.

          What a voice.
