    Top, top actor, great loss!





    And to keep the punches coming, Gerry Rafferty, only today, of liver failure.
    Responsible for some great singles, in the 70s mainly. Stuck In The Middle With You, Get It Right Next Time, Baker Street of course. Still love Night Owl as much as ever, one of my all time faves, beautiful tune.

    Son of a "hard drinking Irish father" apparently who died when he was only 16. Became a recluse but made €80k a year on royalties alone on Baker Street.

    Jaysus, was just looking to buy his autobiography and came across that. Sad news.

    Also, RIP Michaela Harte, daughter of Tyrone GAA manager Mickey, found dead on her honeymoon.
