A few days ago I tweeted about Terry Hall’s untimely passing & now this. Another talent taken too young & another singer of one of my desert island discs leaves us for a better place. ‘Tearing off tights with my teeth’ - You’ll know what I mean if you were there.
RT @faithless: We are heartbroken to say Maxi Jazz died peacefully in his sleep last night. He was a man who changed our lives in so many ways. He gave proper meaning and a message to our mus…

One of my oldest friends passed away today. He was one of life’s real characters with a wicked sense of humour. Taken far too young at 53, he had his demons, caused by his dependency on alcohol, yet, never hid his addiction, nor looked for an excuse. Rest in peace ’Rockin Phil’ x

Today’s lesson: When you think that your time has come, never take anything for granted, nor be blinded by your own ambition. Even more so, when your past conduct can return to haunt you. In sport, life & politics, I’ve always believed in Karma - What goes around, comes around.

The memorial to Major Meiklejohn, Gordon Highlanders, outside Hyde Park Barracks. A Boer War Victoria Cross winner, he was killed in 1913 when his horse bolted in Hyde Park. To avoid hitting a Nanny walking a pram, he deliberately steered into railings and was fatally injured.

With disillusioned Labour voters now clearly returning from both the Lib Dems and UKIP, I can only see the gap widening. Furthermore, if, as some fear, it proves to be a harsh winter, they’ll garner further support from disgruntled, floating Green voters.
