So after many lifetimes as Italian PM Giulio Andreotti finally snuffles off this mortal coil at 94 and becomes my 24th point on the Death List – nearly half way there! Who’s next? Neither Thatcher, her party nor her policies were voted in or generally supported in Scotland. Geographical distinctions in reactions to the news of her death are noteworthy. Some may argue that we’re one UK and that in a general election the will of the majority counts. Of course. But if you remember back, the resentment [...] [Javascript required to view Flash movie, please turn it on and refresh this page] document.getElementById(“player1″).style.display = “”; var s1 = new SWFObject(“http://www.dkpw.co.uk/wp/wp-content/plugins/flv-embed/flvplayer.swf”,”player1″,”480″,”388″,”7″); s1.addParam(“wmode”,”transparent”); s1.addParam(“allowscriptaccess”,”always”); s1.addParam(“allowfullscreen”,”true”); s1.addVariable(“height”,”388″); s1.addVariable(“width”,”480″); s1.addVariable(“file”,”/wp/wp-content/flv/witch.flv”); s1.addVariable(“image”,”/wp/wp-content/flv/witch.jpg”); s1.addVariable(“link”,”/wp/wp-content/flv/witch.flv”); s1.write(“player1″); Rejoice at that news!

He ws doubtless a great musician but the sound of the sitar is magical yet one I can only listen to in very small doses, so intense is it. It may be unnecessary to say but I could see this one coming. Death is foreseeable and inevitable, it’s arrival however anticipated does not make it less sad when the deceased is as great a man as Patrick Moore.
