In my position, I am sometimes compromised by the fact that Moscow does not always tell me everything.

i've had a tenner on Farage 9/2 winings to go on Tyson Fury in february

Are you genuinely this thick? You posted this yesterday on this same thread:

Merc 450 said:

Got Nigel Farage at 9/2 shoe in never heard of the rest apart from the gobby scouse boxer, winnings going on Fury to spark out Ukrain dipst

and now post similar again? Are you really unable to differentiate between an obvious RIP thread and a thread on I'm A Celebrity on ITV?

Just incase, let's try again - if you're determined to post about IACGMOOH that thread is here - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Great

Wouldn't wish ill health on anyone but i have never liked that song.

I love the Pogues, seen them loads of times, but I'm sure it's one of their worst songs.

The only successful one though

Book at Bedtime was all I knew of Joss,
whether reading The Lighthouse or Brighton Rock
there he was.

Joss starred in the Pet Shop Boys music video of "Always on my mind".

I saw him in morrisons in Bideford being pushed round in a wheelchair some time before Covid.

Back when the site was presto or Safeway, I was asked to move as I was blocking his trolley while shopping. I believe he used to live at Higher Clovelly.

Only 64, quite shocked by that one.

[JuniorD]

Damn. That’s terribly, terribly sad. I liked her bio on Instagram where it said “Not Annabelle Croft“.

[Nethybridge]

Married to Midge Ure I think.

Apart from that don't really know the reason she was famous.

[wobert]

64 is no age, cancer is an utter f*cker….

Model and reasonably regular TV presenter.

[Deranged Rover]

Very sad and taken far too young.

I had the hots for her for many years…

Only just heard about her death. Another 'no age'. Very sad RIP.

As for the above, she really was highly successful from the outset, and was a proper Pistonhead - who on here can say they'd owned not far off 20 cars inc several Porsches, an Aston, Moggie etc BEFORE you'd passed your driving test? Annabel did!

She used to say she made her initial fortune as a model, and working for Max Factor, by 'just turning up and sitting still'.

Her marriage to Midge was actually short, just a few years before they divorced, their daughter stayed with Annabel. She had been due to marry some other guy before Midge, but she ran away just prior to her wedding day!
She later had a son - she brought both him and her daughter up while a single mother - the father of the son buggered off and left after a couple of weeks or so.

She was a successful author too. Even on 'I'm a Celebrity' ten yrs ago.

A life too short but very obviously lived to the full as it should be.

Which brings me to this, it gets my goat. The constant line of:
'We're ALL living longer'.

Nah, SOME may be, not ALL.
And as for the term 'LIVING' that needs added interpretation too.
