RIP Les Gibson

Anyone know Les Gibson on here?
Heard he died yesterday morning, was well known around Accy/Ossy/Church, many will have known him through playing darts, which he did really well.

I'll put some darts in for him

Les died yesterday afternoon, after returning to hospital, he had recently had heart surgery, known him since childhood, was brought up a couple of streets away from me. as ken says he was a keen darter, also one of the few remaining accy caracters, will be missed by many. R.I.P. Les.

Lived on Lime Road didn't he Cashy. The area where we both lived. Was always a love/hate with Les .. was such a wind up merchant, but at the end of the day ..couldn't dislike him at all. Will have to text my oldest friend in Spain .. we have many memories of Les.

Think I have some photos somewhere down Highams Playing Fields in younger days .. with his curly hair and ruddy complexion .. always reminded me of a gypsy.
