    Thank you so much. Brilliant pics that I will treasure forever. Love the one of the phone on his beard, and the story about the hexagon. Both are so typical of my baby.

    Thanks again.

    Hey C&Hers new & maybe old, who knows!

    A few weeks ago I started fundraising for Darkness into Light, with the provision that I would be matching all donations up to €500 in Pygmallion's name. Well, today thanks to C&H legend Syncosised, I've smashed that goal.

    The run is tomorrow and I'll be doing it for you Pyggy. I still think about you and I still miss you. I wish you were still here. Hopefully this money means that at least one less person out there feels they have to do what you did.

    Thank you so so much. You have no idea how much this means to me. That you remember and think about my baby is so wonderful. And to make such a huge kind donation has me in tears of gratitude. Thank you so much again.

    It is a pleasure to honour the memory of a C&H legend. Thank you for your kind words

    I saw and read through this thread from your post coming up on the homepage this morning. I've donated. Fair play for raising awareness and keeping up the memory of a very cool guy.

    Pyggy was a VERY cool guy. Thank you for your extremely generous donation, and for letting me know who it was from!

    TL;DR: Raising money for mental health/suicide prevention, matching all donations up to €350, please help make me poor
    https://www.darknessintolight.ie/fun…/paulrunsearly/clontarf

    So! Doing Darkness into Light this Saturday which is a charity run that happens far too early in the morning. Starting my fundraising a little bit late this year but sure look, we can keep going with it after the fact.

    Mental Health and Suicide issues are enjoying a much more open minded approach from the public these days and that's class, but there's still massive strides to be made in the area and Pieta house do incredible work counseling individuals and families affected.

    7 years ago Pyggy took his own life. He was the life and soul of this forum and one of the nicest, sharpest, most intelligent people I've ever met. His death robbed us all of his light in this world. To this day I still wish he would have reached out to someone or that someone could have got through to him. I can't bring Paul back, but I can keep his memory alive by waking up at stupid o'clock and running 5km.

    I'm going to match any donations I get up to €350 (at least) in Paul's name. It would really mean a lot to me if you could give a few euro for an incredible cause like this. If you read this far, thank you, genuinely!

    i knew paul from school and remember on the day hearing from another friend of pauls untimely passing. it just goes to show how many people knew and cared about him. I never got to extend my condolences back in the day to his family but obviously they have them. I miss him lots he was a great guy really funny and 7 yrs later it still hurts
