I misread the headline, and thought it said

Contractor killed by his own hoard.

Thought Threaded might have been crushed under a pile of gold.

Bloody hell, I've met that guy - he used to drink in The Bay on Marine Terrace, Aberystwyth - I worked there as a student.

He was one of the local 'characters'. Actually quite a nice guy if a little bonkers. Used to come in for a pint of Worthy's with his mate Bongo Pete.

Blimey.

Actually that put me on a bit of a downer... made me thoughtful and a bit of a blast from the past there.

Strange days in Aber - some really madcap characters, some really great memories. Shame the old boy went that way, there'll be much in the way of mixed feelings in Aber today when they see this in the Cambrian News.
