I First found out about this when I was at IMM, I must say that I really didn't believe it till now, it has come as such a shock, he was extremly helpfull and freindly always there with banter and all the benny hil jokes!!

Crocks and I will join in the mini prossesion in memory of Taffy with Joey, Just let us know the time and place ( and prehaps a post code too!!!)

I think I will share this, My thoughts and prayers are with all his friends and family during this difficult time.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the dimond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Taffy you will forever be with us in out thoughs.

RIP

Mini_stella and Crocks

Shocked and very saddened to hear that Taffy has passed away, as many others have said he was a true enthusiast (for Minis and Doctor Who) and will be sorely missed.

Condolences to his family.

[Shylos]

My thoughts are with his family, he was one of the most noticeable members of TMF

News of the sad loss of Taffy has come as a shock to other Mini forums where he was also a regular contributor:-

RIP Taffy.

[the-green-monkey]

Oh my god that was so sudden thanks for all the amazing videos taffy RIP

[Bungle]

so sad to hear this

never met Taffy in person but he was someone i got on really well with on this forum

a good mix of fun and technical info everyone will miss him

[stevedx]

I am still gobsmacked by this.

I went to IMM, so only saw this yesterday when i got back to a PC, and was trying to think of what to say, and didnt want to post till I could put into words what I felt, but am still unsure how its effecting me to be honest.

Spoke with Taffy many a time, whether it was mini or doctor who related, sometimes both, and across a few different forums, always struck me as a really nice geniune guy. Sometimes you hear bad news, but because you dont actually know the person, you are sad, but it doesnt really effect you, but even though I never actually met him in the flesh, I am truly knocked by his passing.

If I can get the the funeral procession I will, just let me know when

Save me a mini at the big meet in the sky dude, RIP, and love to your family.

[Purple Tom]

R.I.P Taffy, I too never met you but you provided a wealth of knowledge and information (and fun!) to this forum over the years. Take care.

[Teapot]

Contributing to the funeral fund is the easy bit. What to say is harder. This was the first posting I read on return from holiday and I still can't believe he's gone. As stated previously the famous picture of the wiper park switch keeps getting in the way of more "suitable" thoughts. Very, very sorry and condolences to Taffy's family.

[jayare]

My condolences to Taffy's family. I have only just come across this after coming back from the IMM and it's a real shock. RIP.
