Member AllonFS
Many of you will know AllonFS, a long-standing Tenths member and Le Mans devotee, who went to Le Mans on a number of occasions with Tenths founder Craig and was even a 'Tourist' with me in 2008. Bad 'family planning' ruled him out last year.
I've had a PM from Allon which he thought I might share with you all, particularly the longer-standing members who know him well. Rather than paraphrase, I'll quote him - Quote:
I'm sure you'll all agree this is not the news we wanted to hear. I fervently hoped that Allon was well and truly through the very difficult time he and his family had 5 years ago and I know you'll all be as disappointed as I am to hear that Allon is going to have to go through it all again. Certainly my thoughts are with him and his family that he gets through this OK with as little pain as possible and although prayer is a slightly difficult thing for me, I suspect there are plenty here who won't have that problem. The rest of us will keep him in our thoughts and I know we will most certainly raise a glass to him at that place he loves just like the rest of us. Get well Alan - that's an instruction! |

Obviously I am not the most experienced 10/10's member and therefore do not know Allon but I still think this just terrible news and wish him well and also pray for a speedy recovery for him.
Good Luck Allon, Adam. |

Here's to a speedy and complete recovery Allon, however distant that may seem just now.
You will be in all our thoughts from now on and those luckier ones among us will raise a glass to you before the race on June 16. Bon courage! |

The sort of news that really puts everything we talk about on here in proper context and reminds us of what's really important.
Very much in my thoughts and with my best wishes. |

Shocking piece of news. So sorry to hear you've got to kick this thing into touch again Allon. Thoughts are, of course, with you and yours, and yes, we shall most certainly raise a glass to you on the Saturday.
Wishing you a full and speedy recovery, James |

Sad to hear Allon, my best wishes and prayers go out to you in this time.
Here's hoping you can give luke a good kick up the behind and continue on life's journey. You may not be there in the flesh but you will be at Le Mans in spirit. All the best. |

I haven't had the pleasure to meet Allon or interact with him online. But if he's anything like the rest of the guys here, and judging by the responses he is, Allon is a quality person. Good luck and best wishes, Allon, to a speedy and full recovery.

Hi guys, just wanted to say a quick thanks and how much I appreciate the kind words and best wishes. I'm in tomorrow for my first week of chemo and from then on timescales are based on how I respond to each bit of treatment, although I'm hoping to spend Le Mans weekend at home so I can watch as much of the race as possible!
I'll try and drop in here from time to time to let you know how things are going. In the meantime I hope everyone going to the race this year has a great time and fingers crossed that I can hopefully see you all again next year. Best wishes and thanks again Allon P.S. A particular thank you to Aysedasi for starting the thread - cheers mate. |

Will be thinking of you mate. I've some great memories of Arnage campsite, and I remember and appreciated your concern when I was ill.
Wishing you all the very best in the coming months, and here's to a triumphant return to trackside in 2013. |

Can't see the photo so you might want to try again with a larger one!
Bad news from here in the UK, Allon was taken into hospital yesterday and there is no satelite TV or internet there so he is gutted that he will miss the entire race. He's in good spirits other than that. |
