Tragic news and like everyone, I'll be thinking of his family and friends.

Our paths only crossed once so I didn't know Ian but his posts often made me chuckle.

He contacted me only last Thursday about sharing a room in April. Sad, sad news, really makes you think.

My thoughts are with his family and all those who knew him.

I read this thinking it was some crazy joke Sladey and Ian came up with.

Unbelievable, I met Ian a few times and it was if we'd known each other for years as I got on with him so well as so many others did.

Lost for words.
