Keith. I knew him, but I didn't. We shared a bar, mutual friends and nice, easy times. He was red and white, she is black and white. A nicer couple, more together couple, you would struggle to meet. 61 , no age, found by the woman who he so clearly loved, so very much. I was weeks after the event, funeral was last Tuesday. Not a close mate and I've been busy, so not in there. Keith was a lovely lad, dad and grandad. He loved his team and would banter with me, or anyone, but would end up laughing. He'd been there, once or twice. Died in his sleep, after a shift. It shocked me tonight, it made me think. I'm home, had me tea, having a brandy coffee It's what Keith would have done. RIP Good lad.
When there is mass hysteria over some celeb dying the death of someone who made a great contribution to saving countlesslives, a Nobel Prize winner for his work, was rather under reported. So here is an RIP to a bloke with a brilliant mind. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2827190/mri-inventor-sir-peter-mansfield-dead/

To be fair nights out in Hessle in the early 80's did often require body armour and automatic weapons !

Peter Skellern, R.I.P. http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-e...dy-singer-dies-musician-aged-69-a7585476.html
That was a result of my memory playing tricks on me and my inability to sort it out on my tablet. So back on the laptop... I had linked a YouTube clip of the song "One More Kiss, Dear" thinking that Skellern had sung that. However...I realised that the song was sung by Don Percival but struggled to change it, so I left it intending to sort it out later. But I've just checked and Peter Skellern wrote the lyrics, so perhaps I should have left it.
