Thread: Toby's day. (By Rushy)

I'm a long way away from you all but these posts have touched me....been thinking of mortality and not trying to let it get me down...cheered up when I bumped into a mate with a new pup in tow.....asked him what he'd named it....Toby

Thought i had to share...

Been done bro

Dundee could bring his 22......... sorry couldn't hold back.


Please note, I have no doubt what so ever of the ability of Dundee's skill with his trusty Stirling

And today I am mad. Mad because someone so young who lived life to the full, has been taken from among our number way, way too soon.

But also, today I am glad. Glad because for my young friend Toby and his family and his friends, the pain and suffering for him and those close to him has come to end.

Well said, and thank you.

Well said.

You guys are all very welcome. It was a privilege for me even as hard as it was.

You did a fine job rushy, amazing you kept it together. A few tears shed on my behalf. I was fine until his mother spoke then I fell to bits. A remarkable woman. I now know where her son got such strength from

Yep she was a rock for Toby. Can't have been easy for any of the family but especially Toby's mum as she was there with him every step of the way.

If there was a like button for the entire thread I would be hitting it big time. I was deeply saddened to find out the bad news about Toby via a post mucko made on facebook then I read the young feller from wairoa thread and I found it hard to read viewing Toby's last posts to the point I found it very hard to hold back the tears. Going to miss his witty posts he was a good bugger indeed.

I've been hearing "243's are gay. 270's are gay. ... are gay" in my head a week.

Can I suggest the annual rememberance shoot see that the trophy stays at Brads with the winners name engraved and a miniature taken by the winner.
This way will ensure the trophy is not lost or need to trace for the following year

There is a brass plate on the back of the trophy that can be engraved to record the winners details.
