Hi all, long time since I posted on here & haven't seen many of you in ages but it almost feels like yesterday that Stretchie rang me to tell me the awful news.

One my favourite memories of Hovis will always be at AR08 with his 'nodding dog' routine on the bar stool - had us all in stitches & he just would not give in & go to bed! How he didn't fall off that stool is beyond me to this day!

I'm sure most like me will be raising a glass to him tonight. RIP dude.

Best memory of the special dude was on the peaks rideout in the pub.

Hovis was playing Binky at darts and he asked me to tell him what he needed as he was too drunk to do maths. So he needed double 8 to win the match and first throw he nails it!!

He both celebrated by hugging each other and he decided to try and lift me up to which he promptly fell over and I landed on top of him. On my way down someone removed my pint out of my hands so it didn't spill.

I didnt get to spend as much time with Hovis a some of you but still think about him regularly, he had to be one of the funniest blokes I ever met.
RIP Hovis
