I've never left a message here before but here goes....For all that everything changed eight years ago, i still stand as i stood - still, at the void of some horrific, terrible, terrible tragic hole, gaping helplessly beneath me... But mine is far from the greatest of the losses of this night. Still, ever real to me...I "passed" Anno and Lee and Alberto "on" at a "pagan" wake this All Hallows Eve - admittedly I went there to be away from London town, but found a whole lot more... I stood in a circle on the hill above the Avebury stones with 150 people that I had never met before, shoulder to shoulder so as not to let the spirits escape. Each person in that circle, one by one, spoke of their loss(es), and i of mine. I managed to let go of something somehow that night that i never thought i could, admittedly perhaps only to hold it closer than ever, i'm still not sure....I'm sitting now on my MTB on the Thames thinking of Anno, Lee, Alberto, and, in turn, Andrew, Bee, Ned, David, Isa, Mario - ALL OF YOU! lest i forget anyone! And i dont...Here comes the hour. Here comes the stab...Dear friend - i love you for all that you gave me, that's never been given me since, nor could be equalled. I miss you. I miss your yearn for knowledge, the inspiration, the stupid egotistical big headed birdshit brain you had, all that... But still i hear you ever wide awake in my soul and ever present, ever the one i turn to to judge myself and my actions. Lest i deify you, that can’t be bad! The world got so dour without you, it's a testament to myself that I held on. Still i do all that you'd expect me to, were you here to appreciate that - who gives a fuck? though i know that you are (here), and not that it is in any way for you - and i'll ne'er look back! So in the words of my dear friend, "Here's to the hereafter!". You fucker! You left too soon, you bastard. I still don’t quite forgive you that...Here's to you, loved eternally all the same. Your friend, still now, beyond life, but mainly during your life, cos you were so full of it...How fuckin dare you...Gus xxxx

Was going to go and see the fireworks tonight but family were being complicated. My love goes out to Anno's family and friends, I shall pay particular attention to you today. I'm pretty sure the fireworks reflected gracefully in heaven tonight, what a sight I could only hope to witness one day. All my love, Gresa :) x

ps --- Billy, I called you a couple of hours back but your Ma said you were still at work and I fear that by the time you return we shall be asleep. So I am sending cyber love to mark this night - and will try and talk to you tomorrow. We are sorely missing your presence here in Nairobi - as are the kids, who constantly ask where Billy is. So very much love to you - especially on this night of nights. xxxxxxxxxxxxlove Mama Bee

Our candle is burning here too. love, love, love to you dearest Isa and Mario on this sad night - and we are holding hands with you all at Iverna Court, Cwm Istir and across the sea in Los Angeles. Love Bee, Ned Joni and Anna in Nairobi. xxxxxxxxxx

I shall leave a candle in the attic window, a la Jack's Return Home, but will hopefully be asleep when the dread hour comes around. All my love and a linking of hands and hearts with Bee, Ned, David, Lissy, Barny, Isa, Mario... and Lee's family too, and Giorgio's. If ever one needed evidence of time's relativity, "8 years ago" is surely it for us. XXX

Happy Birthday Alberto. We're off to see fireworks in Battersea Park and I'll be thinking of the boys as the rockets head for the stars. And then it's back to Iverna to light Anno's candle....sending so much love to Bee, Ned, Barney, Andrew, David and dear Isa & Mario.
