Marine jay hylton from Swadlincote in Derbyshire died on the Shatt al-Arab river, the main waterway
on the north eastern outskirts of Basra city. On Sunday 12th of November 2006, elements of the boat
group were conducting a routine patrol of the waterway, moving from south to north,As part of this
patrol, it was necessary to negotiate a number of areas where movement is constrained. One of these
points is a pontoon bridge.
While near the pontoon bridge, one of the rigid raiding craft came under attack from an improvised
explosive device and this killed Marine Hylton as well as causing 3 other marines to lose there
lives.

Jay who was divorced leaves behind to sons Joshua 16 and Nathan 13,
Mum and DAD Ann and Pat and brothers Darren and mick.

Jay was allways life and soul of the party and allways had a smile on his face when you were feeling
down he would be the one to pick you up.

Hundreds of people lined the streets on the day of his funeral to say goodbye in there own way it
showed how popular and liked Jay was.

Ill never forget his smiling face and allways think of him when i hear the Boyzone song ' No
Matter What ' he/we would allways sing his kareoke favourite.
im sure we will meet again some day RIP mate !!!! (Brummie )

In your home there are photo's
of a face more precious than gold
and to those who love and lost you
your memory will never grow old

Everyday they look at your photo's
at your face so loving and true
no wonder their heart is breaking
losing someone as precious as you

But each day you walk beside them
and when their life is through
I pray that god will take their hand
and lead them straight to you

God Bless Jay and your family & friends xxxxxxxx

Hi Mate

Hi Mate soz aint been on 4 ages had trouble logging into this new site Grrrrrrrr

Brads still doing really well at trent 4th in the points and close to 3rd so with some luck he can still finish in the top 3.
He has got another new mini aswell now to race on tarmac he raced at Birmingham last week I think he really enjoyed it but found it different to racing on the mud not as easy as just putting your foot down and going for it.
lanas still looking for a job she aint even been offered an interview she hates not working and not having any money.
I expect your in the pub with all the other heroes having a few beers making everyone laugh and taking the Mickey out of some poor soul.

Make sure you look out for Marias Brother and all the others that have gone out to Afghanistan keep them all safe mate.

keep looking over all your family and friends mate everyone misses you

SAND AND STONE
********************************
TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING
THROUGH THE DESERT

DURING SOME POINT OF THE
JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN
ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND
SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE
IN THE FACE

THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED
WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT
SAYING ANYTHING,
WROTE IN THE SAND

'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE'

THEY KEPT ON WALKING,
UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,
WHERE THEY DECIDED
TO TAKE A BATH

THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN
SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE
MIRE! AND STARTED DROWNING,
BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.


AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM
THE NEAR DROWNING,
HE WROTE ON A STONE:

'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SAVED MY LIFE'

THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED
AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND
ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU,
YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,
YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'

THE FRIEND REPLIED
'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US
WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN
IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF
FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.


BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES
SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,
WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE
WHERE NO WIND
CAN EVER ERASE IT'

LEARN TO WRITE
YOUR HURTS IN
THE SAND AND TO
CARVE YOUR
BENEFITS IN STONE.


THEY SAY IT TAKES A
MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL PERSON,
AN HOUR TO APPRECIATE THEM,
A DAY TO LOVE THEM,
BUT THEN
AN ENTIRE LIFE
TO FORGET THEM.


SEND THIS TO
THE PEOPLE YOU'LL NEVER
FORGET.


I JUST DID.
LOVE ALWAYS LORRAINE (ALEXANDER PETTIE DAUGHTER)

Things are looking pretty good at the moment Brads racing is S**t hot he is on fire mate just need to keep looking after the mini and everything will be fine.
Im still convinced you have had summat to do with how things went with him from the start of the season just to keep me and him on our toes he is really in with a good shout of finishing in the top 3 this year and thats what we aimed for at the start so keep looking out for him, no more interfering you F****r I know what you are like.
Im sure you was as allmost as happy as he was after last meeting when he won every heat he told me he was gonna win them all and he did I lost my bet I had to buy him a new mobile phone it was worth it though, he held his final winning trophy all the way home he was so happy and me too, its the 1st final he has finished and he won it yippeeee.
I bet you have been the life and soul of the party all weekend mate because thats the kind of bloke you are making sure everyone enjoys themselves.
