Depends if he has sinned.

He might be going for the black.

He's still alive his death is a false rumour.
For 80 years of age it's amazing to see he's still got his own hair and shiny white teeth !

Beyond me. Must surely get heard but friends and associates of the named person. That must result in a lot of hurt and anguish for the family.

Brad Pitt was saying the same thing to me Sunday just hours before he sadly passed away.

I was surprised Willie Thorne was only 66 - i had him down as that in about 1988 - probably the premature baldness and crippling Lestah accent! Good chap though. Will be missed.

Same here. I always linked him with the players such as Cliff Thorburn, Ray Reardon, Alex Higgins et al. I'd guessed he was in the late age 70's bracket. I now find out he was younger than me!

Houch, do you look through the obituaries in the paper like I do to see if you're in there ? A customer said to me the other day " I thought you'd snuffed it seeing you haven't been around for ages." Charming !

I'd not heard it but it made me smile.
Many years ago I worked with a lad who had his obituary put in the CET.
As you'd expect he was a bit pissed off but he was a twat to be fair so he'd obviously upset someone.

I think it was a Ken Dodd joke ? The Old ones are the best. A favourite has to be one from the great WC Fields who was a depressive alcoholic but very funny.
He said :" I get up every morning and smile, get it over with." We've all felt like that !

WC Fields quoted this poignant message about himself : " I'm free of all prejudices, I hate everyone equally. " At least he was honest !

I can’t wait to see what my dad says about Vera Lynn finally going he really disliked her and always wondered how somebody could live such a great life on the back of what she produced.
