More sad news from Lloret

I never thought I would have to write this but here goes!

Some of you will know that our very good friend Colin Linkie has been ill for a few months now. He has spent time in hospital at Blanes and also until yesterday evening Barcelona. Colins family have been told so I've now been asked by Angie to give you the awful news that Colin has suddenly died at home last night at 11.50pm. So far what I can tell you is that Colin will be cremated tomorrow (quick I know but that is the norm here) as yet there is no arrangements for a church service but she would like to have some sort of get together when she feels able. As soon as I have more details I will let you know.

Alan Tolland - Mr T

After Terri asked to see some photos of Alan in his younger days I've had a look back at the photos on the site and the only ones I can find are these 3...quite a good looking chap he was too!

Sad news

I've just had a call with bad news about a very dear friend of us all. Alan Tolland has suddenly died this afternoon.

Alan has been ill for quite some time and was taken into hospital over the Christmas period, he was said to improving with hopes of being sent home tomorrow (Friday) and was in good spirits when Maureen saw him earlier today. Our thoughts are with Alan's family at home in the UK and also in Lloret de Mar.
