Ray Brady - RIP.
79!
Wow!
Don't really remember him even though a brother of Liam but looking at his Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Brady, he played for Transport. Now that is a blast from the past!
The band has just finished playing the national anthem in The Ballroom of Romance.
William Trevor, 88. It's been a bad year for the short story.

They keep on coming. John Glenn, the first American in space and the oldest man in space. The latter was 18 years ago, amazingly enough; he was 95 when he died.
He was the second American in space. Sometimes people quote the fact that he was born before Alan Shepard, which seems an odd stat. Shepard was the first American in space, Glenn the first in orbit. He also flew for the navy in Korea, and was a senator. Some life.
