OMG - I'm truly devastated at this news, kitz !!

He was a massive asset to your site and I learnt so much from him, (after reading his posts over umpteen times, as they would be littered with technical terminology :-) ).

There's been a few long-standing members passed over the years, but this one has literally knocked me for six !! I will miss Alan .... greatly. :'(

Alan (Burrakucat), Kitz, johnson, Carl, Black Sheep and others who I need to mention have all helped me so much over the years, with special thanks to Mr johnson, but I don’t know what I will do without Burakkucat. A great friend to me outside the forum too. We would email each other every so often for a chat about nonsense in my case.

Really shocked and so sorry to learn of the passing of Alan (Burakkucat)

From my BB journey through ADSL/VDSL and finally to full fibre over quite a few years via the medium of this forum, Alan has been a constant source of help and knowledge, always freely given, never claimed to have all the answers but invariably could manage to point in the right direction through his encyclopedic recall of forum posts and other reference documentation.

The forum will never be quite the same with Alan's absence, a true gentleman.

I could always wind him up gently by mentioning Firebricks, especially manuals, or RevK of Andrews and Arnold. Alan owned a Firebrick FB105 and somehow no love relationship every developed with the old or new manuals and their author. It’s such a shame that Alan lost his black puss, for whom he merely was keyboard operator. I wanted to try to gently persuade him to get a kitten or two to assuage the heartbreak, but best left alone, I decided, as he would know if the time was right.
