Rock legend and semi-talented guitarist Rick 'the lick' Parfitt has died from severe infection in Spain. The reeper has been right busy this year. Think he's on a bonus. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/status-quo-guitarist-rick-parfitt-9511298
It's been a bit like sitting down in your Anderson shelter this year while Adolph and his pals pepper you with shot. It starts with Wogan at 77, a distant boom a few streets away. The Bowie takes a hit down the next road. AA Gill, a '52 model like me cops it. Chuck in a bit of prostate cancer and it's getting quite fun. TBH I can't work up the enthusiasm to give a **** as I paddle my barbed wire canoe further up **** creek with every breaking dawn.
