A post we never thought we'd have to write. Our darling Rudi fell asleep on Wednesday night and never woke up. He was the best and funniest part of all of us.

We are opening this Just Giving page to try and raise some extra money to help us throw the most incredible farewell party for Rudi. The man with a million friends deserves the hugest and most elaborate funeral and we would appreciate any help that people want to extend.

Keep sharing your stories and photos and memories. It’s getting all of the family and friends through every day and night.

We love you always and forever. xxx
