Better than them, anyway!Two out of five he is going well
I'd like to think I'm as patriotic as the next man, but I wonder how much longer we remember/celibrate start/finish/events of WW1 and WW2. I guess as they are still in recent memory with some still surviving we will carry on for sometime yet.Gutted to hear about Vera Lynn, I know it was on the cards, with her being 103. But it's almost like a link to the ww2 public spirit has finally gone.
R.I.P Vera.
BBC described it as shocking news. How shocked can you be that someone who is 103 has died?I know it was on the cards, with her being 103

She once said to the bartenders at the palace bar "When you two old queens have finished talking this old queen would like a drink."Read an article recently about famous alcoholics. And was shocked to see that the Queen Mother was a well known alcoholic. Bloody hell she lived to a hundred I think.
Read in the article even at 97 she smuggled bottles of gin into a hospital she was in. Reckon she started her day off early with a drink, and was well known as a piss head.She once said to the bartenders at the palace bar "When you two old queens have finished talking this old queen would like a drink."
