Smo™ Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Well it was a beautiful ceremony and the Coffin was superb, I bet Hobbsie loved it! It was nice to see so many of you again, albeit a huge shame regarding the circumstances. I'd like to extend a big thanks to Jonny Jones on behalf of the Islanders for helping us back to the ferry!RIP Nick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 i went to the petrol station today, and just as i was about to pay, i newpaper caught my eye (the news, portsmouth) with a big picture of hobbsie on the front cover, and an article about him on page 3. it explained that his killer was only given 12 months community service, and a 12 month driving ban. at first i thought it was pretty disgusting, then i read a statement written by mr and mrs hobbs, saying how much they miss their son, and how his death was such a big impact to everyone. but they went on to say that if it were the other way round and hobbsie had killed someone, no amount of jail sentence could bring nick back.when i get a chance i will scan the paper up, needless to say i bought the paper...

Simpson Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Fair point, I think before people jump in saying "its disgusting" Remeber no-one really knows the full details of the accident and maybe it was a genuine accident, with trajic circumstances. If what Ash says is right I have true respect for Hobsies parents to see the incident from the other side of the fence and recognise that. Such a trajic accident - rest in peace Nick man x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Deere Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/newshome/Drive...fter.5141413.jpAsh you're right, that last but one sentence in the article from his dad really hits home.
