Tonight, I am haunted by this thread! I just didn't think of the possible implications when I started it and I am truly sorry to hear of the death of mini me! I hope mini me and all of you realised that there was no malice intended and that such a thread could now prove to look so callous!

Forgive me, mini me!

Very sombre week guys and rightly so. Shane and Imlac, I think mini me spent a huge amount of time with us in the Prem over many years and it feels like we've lost one of our own. To anyone attending his passing in the week or so ahead (major?) would you please take with you the love of every one of us in the Competition.

For what its worth Norfolk, i well recall reading an Article from i think Jane Moore in one of the sunday papers, basically ripping into Princess Diana(how she used the press for her own gains), then moaned about her privacy being invaded etc. It was a really hard hitting piece about Princess Diana, unfortunately it appeared on the Sunday morning she was killed!

Norfolk didn't know about him as most of us on here didn't, so its a little unfair to criticise him, it was more banter his original post and I'm sure Mini Me will know this if he's watching down

RIP my friend, you can observe the madness from above now

Norfolk, don`t beat yourself up, bad timing that`s all. We are competing in a fun comp with banter with strangers on an anon forum. I didn`t know he was ill. To be honest when i first saw
