Paul's granddaughter Jessica has informed me that he is in hospital quite poorly and messages from his friends on the forum would cheer him up. Get well soon Paul from Jean. xx 1573897882550.png
 
My very best wishes to you, Paul, and, as do all your many friends on the Forum, I hope you'll soon be feeling improved and more cheerful.

Jessica has asked me to pass this news on to your about her granddads. It was posted on the Aston B 6 page on face book.

I know a lot of you don’t know me, but I wanted to let you all know that my Granddad, Paul Holmes (known to a lot of you over the years and in here) is now receiving end of life care at home. He is comfortable at the moment which is all we can ask for. He has been ill for 47 years really so to know that he is pain free and comfy is important.
 
I awoke to this, this morning and feel sick in my stomach to hear this sad news, I and a few others have known Paul for 20 years plus on various Birmingham forums and facebook over that period, I have never met Paul, but I do think of him as a cyber friend,I just hope he has a peaceful passing, its very hard to find words to express how I and the others are feeling at this moment, my thoughts are with his wife and family...
