My best friend died ...

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy. I will offer a prayer for your friend. Be well,

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

Silence the pianos and with muffled drum

Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead

Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.

Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,

My working week and my Sunday rest,

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,

Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,

Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;

For nothing now can ever come to any good.

W.H. Auden

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy. The loss of a young life is tragic; it is the loss of all that might have been. I will offer a prayer for your friend. This is a time to mourn and no words can sooth this kind of pain though I share this poem by W.H. Auden.

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

Silence the pianos and with muffled drum

Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead

Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.

Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,

My working week and my Sunday rest,

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,

Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;

For nothing now can ever come to any good.

DEAR ALL ...

My friends , forum members , esteemed collectors and admin team !

I have been away for some time lurking from time to time on this place but not posted fore some time ... i have took my time to recover from this tragedy that struck me quite hard a month back as you all well know .

This has made an empty void in the time that passed as i was not so focused on work and social life around me as i should have been if things were normal , there fore i need to speed things up in this aspect and i think im on good track .

There were some other unpleasant events also in the meantime one of them being the break-up with my girlfriend and me in a situation to find a new flat to rent as i needed to move out .

I was forced in the meantime to bunk in with a friend on his sofa for a good week but managed in the meantime to find a place and rent it 2 weeks back ... that has brought additional expenses that i coud not manage without the help of my coworkers that rushed and really lend me a hand .

That said and all this behind me i woud once again like to thank everyone that offered me support kind words in this heavy times. Not just on forum but also via PM and emails you guys are the best !

This proves that human kindness has no barriers and this has been a real revelation for me .

MANY THANKS TO ALL YOU GUYS AND GIRLS !

On the last note , im deffinetly back and will be more active again , sheesh so many topics to be read , replyes to be posted im looking forward to be active here again .

Regards to all god speed !

Though it is hard to see while you are in the midst of it, adversity often makes us stronger and better people. Best wishes to you through this holiday season.

Laz! I can't believe this, I only just mentioned you in a thread about Ladies Watches yesterday. Uncanny.

I had forgotten about your best friend. I'm so sorry again. May your return see you with more peace in your heart, if not less suffering...welcome back.
