Sad news of the death of big bulky Anglican

Returning from Bern this afternoon I was sad to learn of the death of Tom Allen who wrote the big bulky anglican blog. His blog managed to be both wonderfully eclectic - from Ikea to Greenbelt via reflections on the mission of the church - and focused on the context of his work, being a cleric who listened to great music, read alot of theology and cared alot about his work. Tom had recently moved to Scotland to work with Mission to Seafarers.
Details of the funeral here.
