Aww,you have to respect that he didn't want a fuss etc.He was always complimentary when "we" got one of his quiz photos/quotes right. I hope his family can "see" how much we all here respected him.

I love this idea, Sezit.
Shocking news 
A gent with a wicked sense of humour who will long be remembered.
R.I.P. brisket.

Oh lordy....that's so typical of brisket. He really was a star, wasn't he?
I'd like to second Sezit's idea of a folder containing some of his work too.
Lovely idea, Sezit xxx
I'm so saddened at this news. I've 'known' brisket from way back into C4 days. First encountered on the Science forum.

Yeah, a lot of peeps are having trouble coming to terms with it. For everyone. See, I can be thoughtful at times

They will love that you found it. What a photo to remember him by
Just out of interest - does anyone know how old Brisket was? I know (judging by some of the material in his quizzes) he was no spring chicken - I'm just curious - would quite like a 'bigger' picture. Did he have family?

Very true ............but although i feel a connection with a lot of posters (and I'm not just saying this) brisket was really a bit special wasn't he?

If you can hear this brisket this for you, our type of music...............

So do I. Got to have his rose through it, or as an emblem as has been suggested.
I bet there are quite a few of his posts we will find from time to time, dotted here and there when we look through, or bump a thread.
I`m shocked and so sad to hear this news.
I can`t stop thinking about how happy he was when he won the gaga t.shirt competition. 
R.I.P. dear brisket.

That is wonderful Stonks.
I'm so shocked
Did anyone know if he was unwell?
Oh god this is too close to home. I used to have great conversations with him about Being Human

Yeah, It's sad news Scotty
I like the idea of the Rose through the Ga Ga logo ...................I know this forum is only a small part of the whole 'Live Cloud Ga Ga Thing' .............i know it's international and all that but - I've never been keen on the stars ........................roses really would look so much better IMO.

Ain't that the truth lal
A Monthly Quiz Night.....maybe on the 22nd of each month....
Called "briskets Quiz night" or something, with his Sparkling Rose as avator.....
We could all through out the month post 1 question (About Films, Music, BB, TV, Radio.etc)....
Just a thought, as I do think brisket liked to bring us all together through his quiz threads.......

I don't know Rawky, one minute he was here, the next he wasn't, but he struck me as kind of a private person
