So I was out tonight at a concert while I am here in Australia and I couldnt find anyone to go with.. So I go on my own because I love the band who I was going to see... End up texting my friend back home in England, who replies with a deeply shocking, cutting, but short message. "You hear joe died?"

My mind blank... was she joking, what... anyway upon further information my friend Joe who I met a year and half ago just through work to start with was last tuesday beaten to death.

Dont know if its already been posted... but i seriously had no desire to use the search function after hearing this news...

I would like everyone to raise their glasses to Joe.. one of the most genuine guys I have ever met, always kind and willing to help out. Always there for you to talk, always up for a joke... To Joe... Rest in peace my friend.
 
Awful news :( I know he was a regular in spoons, so I might have met him, although I know you got on really well with some of your regulars chris, so I cant begin to imagine the pain you are going through.
Lets just hope they catch the evil person who did this, quick! before it happens again! :(
 
I hear too much of people being attacked on their way home at night in the UK. I'd rather slowly drive home drunk that risk being beatn to death.

My condolences go out to you, Joes family and I hope he rests in peace.

:( :mad:

Please do not drink and drive, just don't drink and drive, you and other people will regret your decission, it is really irresponsible and one of the few things you should never do; but this isn't the thread.

Hope they get who did this, can you keep us posted as it would be good to know if they are brought to justice.

Sad news indeed :(

Just to clear up that that was a sort of analogy and I wouldn't drink and drive. I live in the countryside away from these inner city scumbags anyway. Sorry.

To me he was more, he was a good friend...

Thanks to all you guys messages... im just in such a state of shock, and being so far away from where he is right now (im in Australia) its hard to do anything.

When I get home which unfortunately isnt going to be for a while I intend on trying to do something for his family... Though the only family I know of his is his elderly Uncle who he cared for!
 
Awful news :( I'm sure his family would appreciate it if you could get in touch when you got back to the UK. Just for you to tell them what a top chap he was.

Epsom isn't exactly the Bronx.
