Also could i be really cheeky. Im doing race for life at burghley house may 18th (al was supposed to be at finishing line) and was wondering if you'd sponsor me.

Anyway as i said a little while ago im doing race for life on the 18th may. As you can all guess im racing for speedy (he was supposed to be at finishing line). If any of you would like to sponsor me it would be appreciated. Thank you all for the kind words, im going to print them off so hermione and lottie can have copys and know how much their daddy was loved.

i am sat here in shock and so sad, i'm so sorry to hear the news i feel so sad as i have only just read the post, and i remember following his updates etc, and i just read his last few posts and i just cant believe i'm typing this tbh. god takes the good ones sometimes to help watch over us

all my thoughts go to his family, he will be watching over you all, and will give you the determination and guidance he had to keep you going in life
