Most of you didn't know him but many of you knew of the legendary Creepy Uncle Paul, formerly my flatmate and the inspiration for much late night ranting.
He died last night. He'd had throat cancer, a series of pretty hardcore operations (including having his tongue removed) and had been in and out of hospital with various complications for months.
He'd been pretty weak for ages and this hasn't come as a surprise but is still pretty bloody final.
One sweet thing: my Mum painted possibly her best painting for him last summer and he reciprocated by sending her some plants for the garden. The rose is going great guns but my Mum thought the fuschias were a lost cause until, one morning three days ago, they sprang in to life. 
Anyway, I thought I should mention this here as he was a large part of my life (and journal!) for a couple of years.
RIP dude. I'll drink a glass of the 'Bow to ya'.
RIP Creepy Uncle Paul.

So sorry to hear that. I shall remember him, along with a few others, when I do my Race For Life thing next month
RIP Creepy Uncle Paul.

As you say, still a shock, even though we knew it was pretty-much on the cards...

Sad news Roy;
The death of a Legend, and a rough way to go.
I'm off the drink for a while but I'll raise a virtual glass to him - and to the 3 fushias.
RIP Creepy Uncle Paul.

Ah, yes....had a close fiend go the same way, extra sad 'cos he was a singer in the band.
Don't know what to say other than RIP & don't forget Hell has all the best musicians (plus it's lovely & warm.)

Thanks for the thoughts folks.
The funeral was last Thursday. It was as good as these things can be. I even bit my tongue when the blokey said 'We're here to thank God...'
No, no we weren't, we were there to say goodbye to our mate. :ranting:
I'm missing the chap more than I thought I would. Gah.
Key: Complain about this post
RIP Creepy Uncle Paul.
