Nice job on the plaque. Happy to chip in as well.

Have chipped in.

I assume this'll be in the evening if a drink is involved? Also I assume the service will include his favourite campfire song? Best warn the family...

 

[Eric_Methven]

Cheers mate. Got it.
Make no assumptions. We'll all have a chat down there and decide how we want to play it. Then we'll do what needs to be done to make it happen. As for warning his family, I don't think so.

Maddave, Eric, I have made a temporary post and back board for Drews plaque. If it's acceptable I'll bring it with me on Monday.

Looks good to me, but where's he going to hang his hat? Otherwise he'll only loose it...

Yes, that looks great, and if by chance we are unable to get a concrete plinth made on site, this'll do until we can make it vandal proof. We can concrete it in about half way down.

Must be shocking news to you folks who didn't know about Drew's passing. There was a thread paying our respects to him and a very moving video MadDave made and posted on youtube.

Sorry you had to find out this way but that's the way life is sometimes. Cruel

Have you got a link to the you tube vid

Thanks for that Steve it was a very moving tribute to a very young life, he will always be present around the campfire.

I've had an email from Philip (Drews Dad). They will be scattering Drews ashes in the sea at Merthyr on Saturday too. It was what he wished and he told his dad when he had his operation the year before his death, so we'll have a chat about that too. Perhaps a drive around to Ogmore early Saturday eve or something.

Maybe a walk down the sands before dark ? check the tide tables, could make some floating candles to go out with the tide too ?
