Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyLogged on yesterday after missing a few days, so shocked!!! couldn't bring myself to post! Pat was the only member I actually met through the forum when I asked if I could call in at his yard on a rare solo & weekday trip to the mainland. I spent a great couple of hours, talking lorries of coarse & drinking tea in the little cabin, took me back to my time in the game a good few years back. I found Pat to be such an amiable guy & it felt like I had known him all my life. I have kept in touch through PM.s on the site & always looked forward to another visit one day. His thread was/is one of my favourites, so I hope we can keep it going to remember a great fella' & I will always remember my visit with great fondness. My condolences to all his family at this very sad time.
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyShocked and slightly stunned. As many have said Pat Duffy posted a lot of stuff on Trucknet and was very clued up about the job. I shall miss his posts.
Condolences to all the family at this sad time. Malc RIP AINACS ![]()
Re: Pat (ainacs) Duffycondolences to all the family RIP Pat
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyWhat sad and tragic news. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.
Pat will be a great miss to the Southampton thread. He was very knowledgeable and always had something interesting to say with lots of photos of old Southampton companies. I have just spoken with my aunt and uncle, Audrey and Phil Dibden who were also shocked at the news. Phil was a driver for Duffy and they both always had a good word for him. R.I.P. Pat Duffy
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyMy sincere condolences to his family and those who knew him. I only knew of him through his posts and always enjoy seeing the scania on the m27 being from southampton myself. R.I.P sir.
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyDeepest sympathies....
Never met the man, but always enjoyed his posts on here, sad to hear of the loss of a real lorry man. From what I've learned of Pat through this site, coming home from the boozer is not a bad last journey. RIP Pat ![]()

Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyPaddy.I was very moved to read your posting.It cannot be easy for you at this very difficult time.However you are a Duffy and will be strong I am sure I only hope that my son will say such wonderful things about me. There will be a huge turnout at the crem.Pat was a lovely man and well loved by all. Regards Charlie.
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyHi Paddy just to echo what Charlie has said in his post, your dad was one of a kind and as already been said before we have had loads of laughs along the way. We did not always do things to the book but that was the same for every one back in the day, I still can't believe he is not with us but im'e sure he will get the send off he deserves, stay strong young man and it sounds like you are going to follow on in his footsteps. Respect again to your whole family during this difficult time, John Davies (Buzzer)
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyVery sad news.
RIP Pat.
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyI was so sorry to hear of Pats passing I never met him,but knew of him as most OD's did.
He posted on a thread I started on E.F.Phillips that I appreciated. I know that He will never be forgotten as Paddy and His Family will continue to carry on as if He were still here. R.I.P. Pat
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyI didn't know Pat, but like every one else I am deeply shocked . Rest in peace Pat
Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyWhat can I add to all the comments already made,we have lost one of life's great character's, we still can't believe what has happened, after all he had been through at Odstock lately.
Our thoughts are with Sue,Paddy and family at this terrible time. Here is a picture of Pat singing "the Irish Rover" at one of the August Bash's, with his backing singers. Every time we hear this song we'll think of him. R.I.P. Pat Richard & Angie ![]()

Re: Pat (ainacs) DuffyI wanted to say a few words about Pat, even though had not seen him for a few years, I knew him from Jameson, Sea Route, SCAC days, even in those early times at Jameson when pat was always under time pressure he always had time for a quick chat with a smile on his face & that’s how I will remember him smiling, with those locks of jet black hair, thanks Pat, it was really a privilege to have know you , rest in Peace mate
