    I think you must have found out where I live and bugged my kitchen Mrs lalala. That is exactly the conversation me and the Mrs has just had. I am getting a little tired of hearing this on the radio over and over again. They have done their bit by reporting the death. Now having flogged it to the enth degree they should just move on and talk about something else. Leave the family alone now. The very reason I stopped buying newspapers is because I got sick and tired about celebrity this or that and no bloody news. I could not care less who was having an affair with whom or who had driven a car backwards or forwards or said this or that about somebody. I could not care if Jordan had a third tit fitted on her backside or Mrs Beckham was caught shopping again. If and agree it is a big if there was a story waiting to happen, it may have meant everything to the person concerned despite modern attitudes. The truth is that it is none of anyone else's business and is not news. I don't watch much TV these days either because I'm not interested in what somebody is cooking or where they live or go on holiday or want to buy their next house. I am not interested if a footballer can dance on skates or otherwise. People today seem obsessed with celebrity and 5 minutes of fame no matter what the cost to anyone else or indeed themselves at times. If I listen to Susan Boyd I want to hear her sing and don't care if she owns a cat or lives in a village on her own.

    Not only do I know where you live sensible I followed you...<monster>

    Agree with all of the above, I don't do celebrity either, I occasionally buy a national newspaper but the Herald is the only regular one I get and that is mainly for keeping up with Argyle...and who's died that I might know :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Back to the topic in hand though, you have to feel for Gary's poor wife who apparently found his body in the garage, she will never forget that image no matter how many years pass. Perhaps he couldn't see beyond his own death and never gave a thought of the aftermath awaiting his family, terribly sad for all involved.
