I just wanted to say a few words as it was only today I discovered to my shock and disbelief the tragic loss of such an admired and nice gentleman.
Whilst shopping in Sainsburys South Ruislip I did see the witness appeal poster from the tragic incident.
I first met Sid at the Black Bull over ten years ago when they did Karaoke on Saturdays before Mutleys time and since then I have frequented the pub for karaoke where nine times out of ten Sid would be there.
The last time I saw Sid was last year it was a great night we had a pint together, sang songs and had many laughs. He will be sadly missed!
I always think of Sid everytime I hear the song Mona Lisa and Welcome to my World he really did like the classics.
I would like to send my condolences to his family I can only imagine the grief they must be feeling right now.
I only knew Sid from the times I visited the pub but like so many others I am glad to have known him and the messages posted on here by so many is a fitting tribute to the man Sid was and the effect he had on so many.
So here's to you Sid whereever you may be, you will be surely missed and The Black Bull karaoke will never be the same without you!
God bless
Colin

A known crack cocaine dealer, Sebastian Jansco, 23, killed Sid Irons, 67, and left him for dead in Victoria Road. registration RA57 GZW,
Rather than stopping to help Sid he drove off. Later he tried to evade justice by having his Audi repaired and then hiding it. He even got two of his friends, Raphael Baragwanath, 22, of Field End Road, Eastcote, and James Davies, 19, who now lives in Buckinghamshire, to make false witness statements for him. Sebastian Jansco of Victoria Road (the road on which Sid lived and was mown down) was on licence after being realised early for dealing crack. He was jailed for two and a half years at Harrow Crown Court It has been decided he is worthy of being realised after serving half of the sentance.... Did the courts not learn anything from the fact that had previously released him early???? Full story here |
