Very sad news today to hear that someone I consider to be a friend (as well as the groomer of my dogs) lost his life in a car accident last night. Colin had an amazing personality and would brighten up anybodies day. He also devoted a lot of time to his charity work.

It only seems like a few days ago we were celebrating Colins 40th birthday.
RIP Colin, he will be sadly missed and fondly remembered.
best wishes to the family.
I don't care about your first world problems; I have enough of my own!

    Ivan,
    I don't post here much any more but I wanted to do so tonight to say I'm sorry for your loss.
    I met Colin maybe half a dozen times (friend of a friend) and he seemed like a nice guy.
