Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

RIP Joss Naylor

Was saddened to hear this yesterday a true legend and gent. Never had the pleasure to meet or even see him. But his achievements have inspired always. Never realised he was a Geordie!

The spiel that went with the video link ^^ as I donโ€™t like opening links with no context

JOSS NAYLOR MBE ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ’”๐ŸŒˆ Iโ€™d rather not dwell on it but today Iโ€™ve shed tears on phone calls and more today.

I could bore you all with details and more besides. I wonโ€™t of course.

So, hereโ€™s a long uncut clip of Joss I filmed for my Scafells film in his memory.

I must add that both me and Joss were paggered when we filmed these scenes in Greendale many years ago ๐Ÿ˜‚ Sadly, the old home is a bloody holiday let now! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฌ

That said, myself and others supped a pint of Guinness or similar in his honour today. Joss loved his Guinness. Iโ€™ve no idea why as itโ€™s pasteurised black pee as I used to tell him! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Anyway, you may appreciate why I get so passionate and caring about such things. From ale to holiday lets.

People make places after all! ๐Ÿ‘

Places make people.

Enjoy this lengthy video if you wish.

Itโ€™s honest. And real. No fancy set up with multiple cameras or owt. Itโ€™s just real.

PS

I did have a lovely time on my phone today talking with folk about Joss. All sharing stories and what not. We shared tears too.

I tried my best not to cry as I was in public in The Stag Inn or propped up by a gate on a back lane but tried to keep up the British stiff upper lip! ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ข

Anyway. I hope you enjoy the video. Itโ€™s a tiny, tiny glimpse of a legend ๐Ÿ‘
