• I can't believe Aram is gone, and how sudden it was. There are no words.

    I first met Aram and Jenne in 2009. I had heard about bike polo in London and discovered it was being played right by my flat in Fulham. I plucked up the courage to go one Thursday and was warmly welcomed by Aram, @big_daddy_wayne, @Greasy_Slag, @provenrad, @moog and a few others. Jenne turned up later that evening as well.

    We became firm friends and I became a regular of West Beers and West Polo.

    I think, in late 2011 I need a place to live and Jenne and Aram said there was a room coming free in casa @goodhead, where they lived, in East Dulwich.

    I moved in and had the best few years, living with them, @Mrlemon and after a while @hats and @inchpincher, before Aram and Jenne moved into their own place.

    During that time, we had so many wonderful times, and many many laughs in our weird little family.

    It was probably the most fun time of my life and I'm so grateful to Aram for being so friendly and welcoming that first evening that I went to polo. The forum changed my life for the better and I'm so glad I met both Aram and Jenne.

    Rest in peace, good sir.

    Goddammit!

  • Corny!

    I actually can't remember. Maybe the party was that good?!
    Emilio did visit the East Dulwich place a couple of times when I lived there, but I don't remember the party. Maybe I was away, or my memory is going!

  • Yes. It was at the casa de Goodhead. I chatted with his dad for like 30 minutes. He remembered my uncle who was also breaking into the NYC TV scene in the same era. My uncle was dating one of the producers of Sesame Street at the time.

  • Yes mate it did. Aram's dad and stepmother came over - was a good do.

    So sad about this news but also really nice to see the love and pics shown.
