Shocking news, unconfirmed reports say it was a heart attack and he died in his sleep. I was in Limerick this weekend, and went to Thomond Park before I left to pay my respects. Tied a flag to the gates, and signed the book of condolences
The King of Siam (well, Thailand), Bhumibol Adulyadej, the longest-serving monarch in the world having been crowned in 1950.
Elizabeth II is now longest-serving monarch.

Left of field one this, but US short story writer Thom Jones, who created wondefully drawn characters living neon-lit lives, dependent on prescription meds and always nearly making it. Genuinely one of the true greats of the short story.

Apparently there is to a a minute's silence at Hillsborough this Saturday as a mark of respect as the owners are from Thailand. I wonder how that one will go down with the visiting QPR supporters. If the Owls's supporters know what side their bread is buttered on there shouldn't be a murmur from them.

Bobby Vee, '60s pop singer. Recorded Rubber Ball, but, sadly won't come bouncing back to you from this.
Weirdly, that song was in my head this morning.

I only saw a programme the other day on either Sky or BT about his goal in the 1970 final.
