His writing style was one the things that kept me coming here. RIP old boy.

Absolutely. He could certainly write a great story.
I remember the first time I met Haydn, it was at one of tcm's legendary parties during the London boat show. probably getting on for 20 years ago, I spoke with him for an hour or so but only understood about 50% of what he said. But he was good fun.
He sent me a dvd a few years back of all his boating films, great entertainment. I will miss him.

Very sad news. I also met and enjoyed his company at the same party of TCM's and enjoyed his posts for years after. A real shame that Deb's death and his health issues sucked the life out of him.

The exploding bog story made me look at toilets a completely different way.
He will me missed.

Very sad news. I had the pleasure of meeting Haydn a couple of times at TCM-organised events. He was a fine writer in his heyday and wrote some great pieces of humour on here. I remember him welcoming me as newbie on here in the late 1990s and I remember crying with laughter at his seminal exploding bog post around 2000-2001 (which unfortunately got lost in the software upgrade soon after). How time flies. RIP Haydn.

Hadyn was a real character, didn't meet him but enjoyed his posts, even if I didn't always agree with them.
