Very strange. When I click my link, it doesn't work but pasting the link in my browser, the page shows up OK.

I remember, during one of my chats with my mother-in-law, we were looking at family pictures in the house.  She sighed in rather a resolved manner and said " Oh well, that's how we all end up; just a picture on somebody else's wall ". I think of that, every time I look at her picture..........on our wall.

What an unusual death, he must have been very frail to do so much damage just falling out of bed.

Bye Bye The KING

a Bluesy number from the Great CB

Admire him or despise him it's difficult to deny that his life had more impact on the population of the UK than most of those mentioned in this thread.

Goodbye Martin McGuinness.

mainly innocent men women and children

[upthecreekyetagain]

Certainly - not just those men, women and children that were killed and injured directly by his actions either - millions in London and other parts of the UK were directly subject to IRA 'campaigns'.

Stepping aside from the question of whether violence is ever justified, I wonder what NI would be like without him?

[l111da]

Don't you think it strange that these jokingly called 'freedom' fighters all mellow in old age, they suddenly forget they were responsible for so many 'murders' ...not deaths. I wonder if its just because he was old and no longer had the energy to keep fighting and keep running, needed to get some cash in the bank and build a respectable life for himself.

Now he's dead the media talk without using the word murder, - all his and others missgivings are forgotten because we have peace in NI - really??

No sympathy from me - it's an insult his name is on this post along with others who gave only pleasure in life!

Ditto.

[jd.linklater]

Ditto Al and Archie, I won't be mourning him.

[cee-dee]

I don't know if I should risk a comment about him..... it'd probably be sanctioned.

Another one lost too soon.

Brian Matthew has died aged 88. Best known for presenting Sounds Of The Sixties on Radio 2 for the past 27 years, I remember him as presenter of Thank Your Lucky Stars back in the early sixties.
