He was a personal friend of mine and I know he was a prominent member of the boards here in the heyday.

May he RIP

Sad thing. I remember him under the Imako - Okami names, very funny and strong guy during those years, he did well on the Irish powerlifting scene for a while during that time.

RIP.

Sad news. Colin was a character. Always getting up to something wild and amusing - usually kicking the shit out of a pikey or organizing a protest against the local gypsies, lol. He gave us all many laughs on here, too.

As Henda said, he once held the nuclear option of deleting the Random Pics thread, but he played his hand too early when attempting to put an end to fat Shizzo's shenanigans and Ron took it off of him. I think he also created that classic drawing of Method101 looking like a ginger Edward Scissorhands with a bathroom tap for a penis, haha.

Given that there's no local news reports of him going out in a blaze of glory, I presume it must have been a spot of ill health. RIP.
