and half past three this morning I received a PM:Hi mate. Just to let you know, mum and i are at dads bedside tonight.
Its the 'close family' stage and they dont foresee him making tomorrow.
Ill have a side bet that he will last til saturday whereupon hell be at the rally in spirit.
Im sure thats his plan as nowt in his diary past that! The rideout isnt a good idea now unless you wish to take them down the 1066 as he loved that road hooning on the bike or pulham bk roads to snetterton, another of his little blasts..
Feel free to pass on to the forum and ill keep you updated.
Going back inside now.
MucHo love,
kwacks
SoPhil passed away at 1.45am peacefully in his sleep with Mum sat by his side. Bloody git'd do anything to make me lose a bet! Daft sod, I said Saturday not bloody Friday!
He will be attending the rally in some form, I know he will be with you guys as he's not one to miss an RS Rally, far from it. If I get a chance I will nip down but i foresee having to tend to the family so wont be able to make it.
Please send my Dad's love to all. He has had some wonderful times with RiderSite, especially at the rallies and would expect much pisstaking, laughter and drunkeness..
Regards
A quite happy and relieved

Phil, or Samray as many knew him has been his typical bloody prompt self and gone to the meet early - I am willing to bet that he is contemplating strimming bits of grass while he has a baccy....
I knew how much he valued the forum, and the people from it - we chatted a bit over the last few weeks - and the impish smile was there - and i reckon he was still taking the piss in many many ways.....
The norfolk meet will, of course go on - and may I suggest that we have a little bit of a celebration?
Phil, where ever you may be - Here's Mud in your Eye!
