I know it is very bad taste but I was wondering whether it was now a good day to bury [strike]bad news[/strike] the fact that shelley and I were being naughty
Sorry, that was very bad taste of me.
I am almost as shocked that he was 50 though, in my head he is about 40-45

I think he has died as more and more American sites/newspapers announcing it. BBC bods are probably in bed and having to rush in to update lol.
He was an odd man and not for me at all but 50 year old is way too young for anyone to go.Proud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712
