Feetlebaum

Very sad, condolences to his family.
We're so short of Grandads on here too.

Very upsetting news.

Very sad, especially to hear that he was alone

I shall miss his comments - always to the point and often very funny.

So sorry to hear the news, I found Feetlebaum to be very knowledgeable about music and very interested to read his posts. Sad that he died alone.

Can you imagine Feetle at the gates of heaven?

"Err, rather not if you don't mind. I wonder...could you tell me? Is there a decent gentlemen's club round here at all?"

Very sorry to hear this. Very much enjoyed our disagreements. Best wishes to the family.

Spot on, jings !

So sorry to read this sad news. Particularly poignant that he died alone. I do hope he didn't suffer. RIP feetle, you will be greatly missed.

That's so sad, dying alone.
My condolences to his family too.

I enjoyed his input on Gransnet threads. A sad loss.

Very sorry to hear about feetlebaum. He's been with us from almost the start. Sincere condolences.

Ah. Good old level-headed feetle. RIP

Thanks for letting us know, ariadne.

I think feetlebaum's last post on here was on 14th January on the Children's Radio thread (sorry not sure how to do links)

One of the loveliest records I heard as a child was How Beautiful They Are from The Immortal Hour (Richard Broughton). It was sung by Webster Booth. Once again, pure magic...

Here it is

That thread is in Actives at the moment merlot On it Feetle explained what a radio accumulator was, after I mentioned how we used to get ours charged up on Saturdays.

Yes. Beautiful song.

God bless you Feetlebaum (whether you want Him to or not! ) x

Sad news about a nice man. Condolences to his family.

So sad to here about the loss of feetlebaum. RIP.

Sad news indeed condolences to his friends and family.
R I.P. feetle

I do hope his family will be told about this thread on GN so that they can look at it and realise how much he was part of the GN community and how much many of us will miss him.

Thanks, jingl. I couldn't find it when I looked earlier.

Next time we have one of those threads asking, Who Would You Invite to Dinner, feetle will be top of my list. He no doubt had many more tales to tell.

Such sad news. Condolences to his friends and family.

That is indeed sad news

Very sad news. I always enjoyed his contributions, and it often seemed to me that we had quite a lot in common. I am sure we will all miss him.
