Comedian Victoria Wood dies aged 62
F*ck cancer, and 2016 can f*ck off too.  A talented comedian, comedy writer and songwriter, she will be missed. |

Too soon, much too soon! We all knew that the piper had to be paid for the lives of excess some of our 1960s and 70s music heroes, but Vicky Wood wasn't that old......and she was super clean-living......I believe she had so much more to say. Dinnerladies......seems like yesterday.

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

Very sad news. I'm not so sure the bad start to 2016 is just a blip. A lot of musicians, actors etc people my age grew up with are getting on so sadly it's going to happen more and more. 62 is no age though.

People are driving down to Paisley now....it's an overcast day, raining here. Seems fitting. He was a huge part of our local scene, always thought about him when I'd go to First Ave.

It's only mid-April, so I guess the answer is we have another 8+ months of this.
