Last time I cried was a few days after a mate's funeral.
Cremated him and cracked a few jokes on the day- sunk a few pints in memory as well. Absolutely no discernible effect at the time.

3 days later it hit me that I was never going to see the funny cunt again and that he had died too young.

My best mate in my teens, Ray, died a few years ago
I broke the news to his ex girlfriend by saying he was an ex-Ray.
