I noticed he was here a couple of days ago and thought how it had been a long time since i'd seen him in here. Very sad news.

a sad time for a lot of us, i got to know alan away from the forum on some personal matters as well as all the good times on here, of which there where many, especially the brilliant vegy-merlin bestseller and some great tipping i might say. my thoughts are with his family and friends.

Strange, but only a couple of weeks ago I was thinking we hadn't heard from Merlin for some time, then up he popped last week with a couple of posts, and now, suddenly, he's gone.- but won't be forgotten.
RIP mate.

Ive been away a couple of weeks and have only just read this thread about Merlins Passing.
He was always very genorous to me when commenting on any threads or posts I had put up and he came across as quite a character.
You only have to see the amount of posts in this thread to see that he was one of those people that makes an impression on others and im sure he was an equally larger than life character in everyday life.
RIP Merl

I've not been on for a while and what a shocker this was to hear that Merlin was gone. Hope his family is coping and I'm sure he'll be missed here and everywhere he made an impact.
