Has anyone heard from Nick? The last time I emailed him (awhile ago now) he was extremely ill and said he didn't have long to go. I can't seem to get hold of him anymore via email so I fear the worst.

A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!"

bwanamrmRIP Nick... always enjoyed your insights and humor.
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

crbutlerThat’s a shame and he was too young.
He was kind of getting less active here when I started on this site, but obviously had a love of hunting.
Rest In Peace.

One the bad things about growing older...you start to watch your mentors fade into the sunset.
May God rest his soul.

The wisdom of old age!
I remember my father sitting with some of his friends talking about the passing of one of their friends.
They used to ask each other "Am I going to bury you or are you going to bury me?"
Walter complains about getting old.
I keep telling him it beats the alternative!

"the longer you live, the fewer friends and relatives you have because they die off".
"The only way you can avoid losing friends and relatives: IS if you go first!"
RIP Nick.

surefire7I'm sure he's spending every day in the happy hunting grounds, waiting for the rest of us to join him at the campfire. He's home.

muttleysgoneIf you don't already do so, begin today to treasure every single day you stay on the green side of the grass. Life is a terminal condition. We must enjoy that amount of time we are granted. It is obvious that Nikudu did so.
Most of my money I spent on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted

MacD37Rest in piece Nick! We at AR are all the looser for the loss, of fine family man and hunter.
Nick will be missed here, R.I.P. Nick!
