I first met Colin Gordon at a TVMog Noggin, where he was looking for a center nearer to home. Colin was the only person to ever make friends with me there as we were both on our own among the establishment. Colin had been an active member of the HopMog's TogMog group prior to joining TVMog. When he missed a noggin I emailed him only to find that he had been 'ill'.
He never ever mentioned the illness until I emailed him from my holiday to tell him about an upcoming meeting a couple of days before he actually died. He replied, saying that he was in hospital with Cancer, and that he might not make it.
Sadly we had never exchanged phone numbers, so I never had the chance to chat. I believe that his daughter still drives the Roadster for him.
I've never bothered with Noggins since then and often think how unfair life is.
