      Admittedly I knew very little about Alan but it’s always sad to loose one of our fellow modelling brothers :sad-face:

      Rest in peace Al…

        Did he ride a motorbike? I know (from searching the forum) that he was considering buying a 125 cc one some years ago, and used to own some in the past, but I can’t find if he actually owned one now. The reason I ask is because, trying to find out what happened, the main accident I can find in Scotland for 14 July 2024 is one involving a Yamaha Tracer, whose 52-year-old rider died — which sounds like it could be our Alan :sad:
        Hello Jakko. I'll be straight with you, your post was reported. Many are in shock and saddened to read about Alan. So it's probably not a good idea to speculate on how this sad event occurred.

            On a personal note, I have a lost a good friend. The chances of us ever meeting were properly zero. Me being in Cardiff and Al way up north in Inverness.

            He sent me a lovely message after mum passed, that was the measure of the man.

            RIP Al I for one will miss him and a lot.

              To say this is a shock is an understatement, RIP Al and my sincere condolences to his family

                          So sad, my heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
                          RIP Al.
                          Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                              Not logged on to the forum over the weekend and just seen this, absolutely shocked at the loss of such a great guy. RIP Alan.
