Hey everyone, it's Dan from BRB UK here.

Usually, at this time on a Thursday evening, I'd be sitting down to record BRBUK with my good

mates Tim and Coleman. As you know, Tim's been unable to join Coleman and I for the past few weeks

as he's been unwell. It is with profound and heartbreaking sadness that I have to let you know that Tim

passed away on Wednesday the 18th of February 26, surrounded by his friends and family.

I've had the absolute privilege of being able to count Tim as one of my closest

friends for the past 20 years. The long time listeners will know that Tim and I have been talking

absolute and utter nonsense at one another for over 700 episodes, stretching from the days of

On Her Majesty's sarcastic service, then SGUK, and all the way through

to BRB UK. Tim enriched the lives of so many of us. He was selfless, supportive, and kind.

His love for life and love for those around him is something that shone through in everything that he did.

He was at his absolute happiest when connecting with you all, be it through our podcast

or one of the many live events such as Tabletop Tuesday that he organised. All of us here at

Big Red Barrel are still coming to terms with this devastating news.

This community is something that Tim was instrumental in building, and everyone at the site

will be honoured to keep it going in his memory.

Coleman and I will be back in a couple of weeks with a new episode, but do need to take

a little

bit of time out for ourselves. If you're able, we'd love to hear your favourite Tim moments.

You can leave a comment on this post at big redbarrel.com, mention us on X at Big Red Barrel,

or just drop us a note on Discord at big redbarrel.com slash discord.

We'd be honored to celebrate Tim's life with every single one of you.
