Horrible feeling in my stomach when Chivsy told me about our old mate Nobby.
But it was soon replaced with a warm feeling... memories of some great one-liners and put-downs, a wry smile, and the knowledge that he's now out of pain.
Nobby, I salute you... You were an extraordinary, devoted, hard-working gentleman and it was my pleasure to have met you and known you.
Rest in peace son, rest in peace
