17th July: Andrea Camilleri, creator of Inspector Montalbano, aged 93. He was executed by the Mafia and his remains were found in a burned-out car. (Or, if you prefer the truth, he died in a Rome hospital after a heart attack.) RIP.
Big fan of the Montalbano series. hadn't realized the author was so prolific - after a late start too.

Remember loving The Hitcher when I was a kid.

And of course, Guinness adverts.

RIP Rutger.
 
“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

RIP Rutger
