I think we all knew, but it's till nice to have some kind of closure.

Thanks for the update Redvers.

Paul was also here on the forums we used before we switched over to these ones. In fact, iirc, we had 2 other forum platforms before this one and Paul was there too. He was certainly here pretty consistently for well over 20 years.

I think everyone should take some comfort in knowing that Paul enjoyed his time here (in the main!) and interacting with fans, staff and playing the games was an integral part of his life.

You all brought some joy to him, so I will take a moment to reflect and remember that as a positive thing.

Paul said it had been an honour. It was an honour for me to have known him.

He really won't be forgotten and will be very much missed.

@Bernd: No problem at all. Very welcome.

It's good to know that he passed away peacefully among family and friends. :(

After giving it some thought, I've decided to post a link to the JustGiving page that was set up in Paul's name. I've not sought his family's permission to post this link, so I hope they won't mind, and I need to be very clear that this is purely for information, in case anyone is interested, and is in no way intended as a request for people to donate.

I'm sure they won't mind, and it's a more than worthwhile cause.
“Man, my poor head is battered,” Ed said.

“That explains its unusual shape,” Styanar said, grinning openly now. “Although it does little to illuminate just why your jowls are so flaccid or why you have quite so many chins.”

“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”

“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”
