Hope you're doin' OK Tad :)

Posted by Kramerica on May 19, 2020 at 5:00pm in Current Affairs

I noticed a couple of days ago that Tad hadn't been around - and today I noticed that his old posts aren't on the site and thus he is no longer a member.

Tad was a kind sole and a regular poster on here - he had a passion for social issues and was always keen to participate in discussions on any social/current affair type issues. I didn't always agree with his views but Tad was a gentle fella who was never deliberately abusive, aggressive or robust in his language and - even if he upset someone - there was never any intended malice or aggression in his posts.

Tad, if you read this mate, I would like you to know that there are plenty here who believe the site is poorer for your departure.

I hope you're doing well mate and I hope to see you back on here sooner rather than later.

Cheers brother :)

    I'd like to echo those sentiments Kramer.

    I've always enjoyed Tads input to the site, and even though like you I didn't always agree with his views, he was always thoughtful and respected others views.

    If you're out there Tad, come back mate, we miss you!

  • Mitchy May 19, 2020 at 5:47pm

    Well said Kram, and agree on that. Hope Tad is ok..

  • Snakey - Sack Dylan Brown May 19, 2020 at 6:16pm

    Top blog mate, Tads a great guy with a kind heart, hope hes ok and not gone for good.

    Does anybody have any contact details for him?

    Come back Tad!

    • Hell On Eels > Snakey - Sack Dylan Brown May 19, 2020 at 9:19pm

      Snakey, I've contacted him. You're right, he's a great guy, mate. As are you.

  • Hell On Eels May 19, 2020 at 9:17pm

    Great blog, Krams. I'm a big fan of TAD, and you're right he's a wonderful person. He has always had my respect. A wise, gentle and creative soul. I've sent him a message outside the site, and I'll let you know what happens.

        Thanks Mick, TAD's a top bloke. Really glad so many have realised this. I can't praise the guy enough.

  • Kramerica May 19, 2020 at 10:52pm

    Jeez you're a good bunch of blokes - hand on heart - all of you :)

    HoE and Pop, if you manage to make contact with Tad let kim know he belongs here, with us (I know you will).

    Cheers lads - fucking legends!

  • Bourbon Man May 19, 2020 at 11:16pm

    I'll throw my hat in the ring too! 

    Come back Tad! I can't fight all these right wing lunatics on my own ;-)

  • Prof. Daz May 20, 2020 at 9:14am

    Come back, Tad. We all miss you. Even Snake's tiny little heart burns for you. 

  • Eric The 17.78cm Eel May 20, 2020 at 3:29pm

    Come back Tad, your open & honest posts are always appreciated, especially by Snake.

    Here is Snakey at the re-opening of his local pool. Just like you Tad he believes in honesty.5184372068?profile=RESIZE_930x
