Crikey... another one. Was part of the soundtrack of my youth.

This feels like being in the National Service ballot again, waiting for the marble with your number on it to to be pulled out.

 :hellno: Oh man another one it would be nice to get through a week without some one passing at this rate I'll most likely get my wish as there will be no one left.  :( RIP Gordon.

Definitely one of the all time greats.


Here's a clip of a very emotional Rick Beato discussing just how good Gordon was. Definitely worth a look and listen.

Tried watching the clip but I dislike Rick Beato immensely he's so full of himself  :fingerup:)
