I do hope that Noel won't mind me posting this, but I feel he would really appreciate a few goodwill messages from all his mates on TV forum.

Many of you will be aware that Noel has been having chemo and radio therapy for some time, and on Saturday the Surgeon will take over at Bumrungrad to finally put to bed this bloody crab.

Noel has been extraordinarily brave throught the whole ordeal, and we have seen his acerbic wit shining on the forum pages as usual during these highly traumatic times.

It humbles me to know what he has been through, yet he remains as cheerful and cynical as ever.

Noel, you are an incredible old bastard and you put to shame all those who think they have life shattering problems.

Good luck mate - you'll do just fine, and we look forward to reading your gems of wisdom for many years to come.

Noel,

Buckwheat,

So where is that book report from your last visit to the library, it is overdue?

Now I hope you stayed out of the 'Archive' section and dedicated your time to the newest publications.

Don't forget to tip the librarian and also pay all fines as they cum due.

I got a phone call very late last night informing me of the sad news. One of the kinest men I ever new. It made me laugh when someone recently called him violent on this forum, but he would not have minded and would just have laughed it off. Rest in peace old friend.
