Without fail Max would always put a smile on my face and I'm sure many others, whatever mood I was in he managed to cheer me up. Turning up to work for the 15th day in a row for another 12 hour shift feeling a little weary, I would have Max bounding up to me saying "Alright mate," and I knew I would be in for a mischief filled evening. The last time I saw Max is a prime example, it was the last night at Christmas for Mecco and we were behind the bar and we had to fill glasses with ice, anyway needless to say, as Max was around it ended up as a massive ice fight which I lost!!
The photo above was another very amusing day with Max and Isaac, Max was very excited about the fact we got to dress up and not wear uniform for the day. He thought it might be another excuse to get us out of doing any work.
It's definitely fair to say that Max you will be massively missed by everyone, working at Mecco will never be the same again. But all your jokes and the fantastic memories you have given us will be with us forever.
All my love

Max the only person I have ever met that after standing on his feet for 12 hours on about 5 hours sleep, with a bit of sore head would still have a big smile and a cuddle that never failed to cheer the recipient up!
I had the pleasure of working with Max at Mecco for the past couple of years and what a fun time its been. My fondest memory of Max would have to be when he, Isaac, Nat and I dressed up at Sailors at Proms in the park last summer. We looked absolutely ridiculous, which we tried to style out as reminiscent of a Jean Paul Gautier advert (Looking back Id say we looked more like a Primark advert now). Nat and I had so much make up on; it weighed our faces down and the most uncomfortable shoes. I remember as usual moaning for the better part of the night. But Max kept making us all laugh, with all of his sailor related puns and terrible singing of Queen, which was playing in the background.
I am also delighted to say we had a joke with the legend that is Bruce Forsyth. I think he said something along the lines of what time do we set sail? To which Max responded with a rather forced laugh, mainly due to the fact it was the 10th time we had heard it in 5 minutes and Max was annoyed someone stole his material.
Max reading all the comments your friends and family have written proves that even though you're no longer with us, all the stories, laughs and good times you have given us all will keep you alive forever.
It goes without saying you'll be missed and I every time I see a stripy blue top, a sailor or Jean Paul Gautier advert I will think of you!
All my love
