This wasn't the news I was expecting, so very sorry to hear of this.

Bob was such a huge character on this forum, I loved his dry sense of humour, he will be missed by many. Its so sad knowing I am not going to see him and his lovely 75 with the cute white fluffy doggy peering out of the window around Dorset any more.

RIP Bob, and our sincere condolences to all his family and friends.

This is so sad. I am going to really miss Bob's humour, like many others on here will do.
My thoughts are with his family with this tragic loss.

Echoing all comments made so far.

I was fortunate to meet him on a number of occasions, what a guy.

He will be missed, and sincerest condolences to the family.

RIP bob innit

Such a shame 'innit'. I never had the pleasure of meeting you Bob, but very much enjoyed your wit and humour in your post's on here. To his family all I and say is that you will always remember the good times with Bob. At peace now. innit
