Frenchie

Just having a really nice Tequila. 1800 reposado.

I glass raised to your man.

 

I'm so sorry to hear about Frenchie. My thoughts go to his family. It is a difficult time for them. Our loss is trivial in comparison but I will miss his stories of life in France and the raids into his cellar to deal with whatever WFC was serving at the time.

RIP Frenchie. You will not be forgotten.

 

So sorry to hear about this. I never met him, but have been on these forums a long time and enjoyed his contributions. My thoughts go to his family and those who knew him.

 

I couldn't say it any better for myself . His sound and balanced comments will be missed.

 

We're here, ofh. So are you.

 

Yorkie can you please send on my condolences too. Like many on this post I never had the privilege to meet Frenchie personally but have had many conversations on this site with him through the years. I noticed that most people posting on here joined in (2011) when BBC closed the 606 site. That is a long time to have had a pen pal along with all the other familiar names on this Forum.
RIP Frenchie you will be sadly missed.

 

Yes I will do.

 

Another loss on our forum who will be missed, and another reminder our some times fragile existence is only temporary and we only continue to exist when we have people who member us

Please include me in your list to Betty

 

I will do ..at the moment she is not replying to my message.
I am going to buy a plant for her to plant to remember Frenchie from us....If you fancy chipping a few quid in do let me know by message and I will send you my bank details... you only need send a fiver...only if you want tho..... he loved his gardening and had a little garden courtyard behind his modest house. As well as a potager...a veg garden in a field nearby.

 

Just to say. Thanks to those who have donated a little something.
I have not heard back from Betty yet but will contact another relative If I don't hear further soon.
I wonder if we can name one of our all time threads after him ..? What do people think..maybe a rumours thread?

 

Maybe an 'Anything else' thread? In spite of the current variety of topics, there always seems to be something that doesn't fit into any of them,but doesn't warrant a thread of its own.

By the way could you send me details of where to donate to 'the cause' please.

 

Same!
