My Dear Old Mum Joyce Ann Beryl Nixon died the other day at the age of 87, she had a good innings and is now in a better place, she was blown out of London , literally, during the Blitz. She was an absolutely ardent, some might say possessed Hammers fan her whole life, who regularly spoke with David Gold because they went to the same school, and although in her latter years she would make an awful lot of phone calls, day and night regardless, she always knew no matter what NOT to call for at least 12 hours if the Irons had just got beaten. God bless her, she was a trouper and a warrior, a tour de force...I had better warn my Dad to turn down his hearing aid! J.A.B Nixon 1933-20120 RIP x

Thank you all for your condolences, much appreciated, as we 'unearth' things about her past, we are amused that she was able to call David Gold directly but never divulged his number. I hope she wasn't a Mrs Huggett, only joking darlin' x

Only just seen the post Nev...I hope you're all bearing up after the loss of someone so special. I lost my Mum 28 years ago at the tender age of 52...I think of her every day and you will too. For sure she'll be blowing bubbles x
