Re: Chris Flavell ...
So so sad, death by suicide is just all to common these days.
Chris rebuild my carbs and was so helpful and had some much knowledge of our old cars, the world is a smaller place without him.
My condolences to his family, RIP.

Re: Chris Flavell ...
Very sad news. Suicide rates are appalling – a sad indictment of the state of mental health care and support in the UK right now. RIP Chris.
Re: Chris Flavell ...
Really sad news, Chris was a super knowledgeable guy and always had time to give advise on things. I know he suffered with his health for a long time but horrible that it came to this. RIP Chris.

Re: Chris Flavell ...
That's terrible news.
I definitely won't be the only one to have spent many hours listening to his stories and knowledge when I'd only popped in for 10 minutes!

Re: Chris Flavell ...
Real sad news
, spoke to him various occasions when he was looking at getting some special head studs manufactured.
A very knowledgeable guy that can't be replaced.
My condolences go to his family and friends.

Re: Chris Flavell ...
Sad news indeed. Now so glad last I saw Chris, late ‘19 we had lunch, I paid, just to ge5 lu5 of office and consistent phone calls from customers requiring his services. RIP and condolences to family.
Re: Chris Flavell ...
So sad for his family and friends. What a loss. As others said suicide doesn't get the same press as the heart, cancer or other things but is a big issue in men of a certain age.
RIP Chris
