This is a very meaningful picture to me and my lad! Tony was a regular visitor to Florida if I remember correctly. He introduced the idea of Scrubbing Bubbles to the forum as a degreaser. But it wasn't available in the UK. I figured Cif must be the same thing. And so it turned out. A great example of the man's knowledge and sharing. We have gone through dozens of cans of Cif over the years and I think of Tony every time we use it. 2017 price £1.76. Now £3!

Very sad news, he made such a big contribution to this forum and community. Condolences to family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Shocked and very saddened by this news. Since I sold my zed I’m not on here so often but pop in from time to time. Had a few conversations with Tony and he was a lovely kind and very helpful man. My deepest condolences go to Tony’s family. Don’t think Zorg will be the same without him on here. God bless you Tony and rest in peace.

Just got back from Tony’s funeral and I have to say as far as I could see it went very well, the church and service was outstanding both in what was portrayed of his life and the surroundings plus a fantastic turnout. He would’ve been proud I’m sure. The wake venue real nice and food outstanding. Parking wasn’t as expected and no probs whatsoever, that was down to the what we all have come to expect from z owners and Tony’s family and friends. Won’t forget t-tony for the rest of my life. God bless Shirley and family, he would’ve been so proud,well done.
from me; RHA. Roy.

I know this is late, I have just found out about all this and am absolutely shattered by the news. Been a couple of times to Tony's and did one of his runs. He was one of the very genuine people you could ever meet.
See you soon mate

Good to hear from you @billz, but not in these circumstances. Sad that you had to sell that lovely E85. Best wishes from just up the road in Ripley. Ken.
