How wrong can you be.

I'm actually quite a decent person - even on PH.

Just heard that soul and blues singer Clarence "Frogman" Henry has died aged 87. His most famous hit over this side of the Atlantic was "I Don't Know why I Love You - But I do".

One of those rarities who could be fairly described as unplayable when conditions were right.

Vincent Friell, who was in one of my favourite 80's films - Restless Natives, and (I didn't realise until today) also played the developer who bought the Clansman pub in Still Game.

Only 64.

Soundtrack of Restless Natives worth a listen...

The eagle was lord above
Rob was lord below


Soundtrack by Big Country 36 minutes of joy to listen to

Star Wars actor Warwick Davis pays tribute to wife Samantha who died aged 53 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-6883...

Rather sad.
Warwick presented our daughter with her Gold DofE at Buckingham Palace a few years back, just after he & his wife had done a show about holidaying on the IOW (my birthplace). Lovely fella, happy for loads of photos and banter with youngsters and their parents, very excited for his first visit to the Palace. Very sad news for him.

Alan Minshaw who may not be a household name but was a touring car driver and also the founder of Demon tweeks.

He was definitely a pistonhead and I'm sure many of us have made purchases over the years from tweeks.

Used to play squash with him many decades ago.
