it is with deep regret that I am here to inform you that our good friend Oli aka M0del101 passed away around 1 week ago.
He was at a wonderful stage in his life, married to a lovely lady with a fantastic little boy and was living a clean healthy lifestyle. as of yet the cause is not known - he was heading to nursery to collect his lad, collapsed on the way and unfortunately he could not be revived by the medical services - we are currently awaiting to find out the cause.
for many of us on here, he was a musical inspiration, an important member of the community, but most of all a great friend.
big ups to you my friend
Grumpy since 1976.

Ah fuck. I saw some comments on FB and feared the worst. Thought I'd come back here to find out more - thanks for keeping us informed Veej.
I have nothing but fond memories of Oli - such a lovely bloke and definitely lived up to his reputation!
So sad to hear that there's a mini-M0del out there left without a Dad
Sending love to all his friends and family xxxxx

Do pass on my regards. I can't make it, due to childcare responsibilities.
Any whip rounds ongoing? Must be hard bringing up a pre-schooler on one income, with nursery costs.

Such sad news. Ollie was an amazing guy. My thoughts go out to his wife and son (and Chemical Grrl and the rest of his family). R.I.P

Jeez... decided to check in on NSB for the first time in years and I read this.
Randomly bumped into Ollie a couple of years ago shortly after he moved to Tooting - seemed really happy with his new job and his personal life and was still the lovely bloke he always was. Gutted to hear this. If his family (blood and otherwise) are monitoring, my thoughts are with you all. Much love.
