I hadn't planned on doing any kind of anniversary tribute but I guess it must have been in the back of my mind or something. After he died, all the writing just went out of me and it's taken till this year to get it back (PJ used to read and enjoy my stuff). Thanks goodness for blogging!<br /><br />@Dave - PJ was just about as close a friend as it's possible to be platonically, I think. PJ was a really troubled soul who massively undervalued himself, but I always saw something incredibly worthwhile in him and stuck with him through his dark days - which were pretty dark sometimes. He was a top bloke.<br /><br />@ER - Thanks. It's been 10 years now but I'll never forget him.Argenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10532506690426639326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254559936115487829.post-42305678979718516932009-10-04T23:54:19.173+01:002009-10-04T23:54:19.173+01:00I'm with Dave.
