Current mood: sad

Still a bit stunned by this.
Judging by the fact that the only mention of it on my flist comes from overseas, so are other people. Or perhaps everybody overlooked it? (I haven't seen anything on teletext or the TV news, for example...?)

Last stop, Mournington Crescent...? =:o{

An Independent bio.

I heard a lot about it on the radio this morning and it was big in all the papers. I;ve been listening to ISIHAC since it began - it's a sad day.

And just to rub it in, LJ is reminding me that his birthday is coming up, 3 days before mine. =:o\

I saw it and was saddened, but didn't have anything to say about him that wasn't better said by the news coverage.

Seen on uk.rec.cycling:
>Indeed. He was a jolly good fellow. So everyone, join in and sing "For he's
>a jolly good fellow" to the tune of "Singin' in the rain"

Or as it says on the have yoursay bit on the Beeb web site:
"For the funeral, could we have "Abide with me" to the tune of "The
Lord's my shepherd"?"

Very sad. I've been listening to ISIHAC for many years. It's like losing a beloved old friend.

I heard the news on Friday evening as I was driving home listening to Radio 4 about 10:40pm, and wasn't entirely un-expected. The tributes even at that early stage had said anything I might have said better than I could have said it. So no, not stunned, but sad...
