We made some wonderful memories together Captain, from the age of 17 when as a group of friends we decided to drive up north.
We settled on Huddersfield after the long drive from London via Liverpool and although only you and I stayed in Huddersfield, we made a new group and the good times started.
We shared most things; We all got jobs together and when one left, we all left. We shared beds in a shared room, we shared food, we shared laughs and good times, but we didn't share the cooking. The youngest should cook you said "Fread, go to the shop to buy the flour", "Fread, go boil water and cook the dumplings".
There was no island divide with us. We were all brothers.
Life led us all down different paths and we all had families of our own, but my happiest early memories Captain always include you. A good friend, a good man, you will be missed.
Sleep well Cap until we meet again.
