Re: ***Michael Gordon Blackledge***
So sad to hear of this. I met him a few times and found him to be a real gentleman. R.I.P.

Re: ***Michael Gordon Blackledge***
It's a long time since I've posted on here but I do still read the threads every now and then. I remember being a newbie on here and attending the first Accyweb meet up, meeting Mick and Anne for the first time. I was amazed at how clever he was on computers and me being a techno newbie, and knowing nothing about computers, digital cameras etc. Mick was always there to help.
He was always happy to stop for a chat and a catch up when we saw him in town and will be missed by everyone who knew him. On behalf of myself and Sparkologist we send condolences to Anne and all of Mick's family, friends and Accyweb who have lost a fantastic moderator, member and friend.
RIP Mick x

Re: ***Michael Gordon Blackledge***
Just got back from Mick's funeral.
It was good to see so many Accyweb members turned out to pay their respects.
Goodnight Mick.
Rest easy.

Re: ***Michael Gordon Blackledge***
Jen, it was lovely to see you there....in spite of your recent tussle with the ground.
Hope your bruises soon settle.
Bernie as well, good to see you there.
It seems that as we all get older we only meet up for these sad occasions.

Re: ***Michael Gordon Blackledge***
Well, Jen, I am not old unless you look at my birth certificate(it lies, it lies)....yes, I was sorry to be saying a last farewell to Mick too.
(You definitely aren't old).

Glad there was a good turnout, was very sorry to be unable to pay my last respects to a top guy, but thats the way things panned out, R.I.P. Mick.
